There was silence in the room, save for the occasional crisp popping sound of the wood in the fireplace.

Neither of them was in the mood to speak, and one was sad about his broken love. A wife who is missing a distant country...... Neither of them sat silently without speaking.

Suddenly, the whole Zhangye boiled like boiling water, and people were neighing everywhere. Occasionally, one or two shrill screams pierced the night sky and burrowed into the ears of two men.

"What's wrong?"

The third princess stopped grieving, and she found that the number of armorers outside the door had increased exponentially. Those elite black-armored warriors with hideous visors stood guard in front of the door. His Donghu guards were all driven far away, and those who did not comply would be punched and kicked. The third princess looked at Yun Xiao in surprise, feeling that he had no reason to detain herself.

"It's a mess out there, that's why I left you here. Your brother is preparing to start a rebellion on the day of your father's wedding to Princess Dahan. And your grandmother is also one of the masterminds, and now your father is encircling the rebels. ”

Yun Xiao looked at the dark night outside, and listened to the constant sound of fighting in his ears.

"Zalandin, he wants to rebel against my father? How is this possible, he is the heir to the throne......"

The brutal third princess is simple, she doesn't know that her brother can't wait, and she has long wished that her father would die quickly.

He felt that he had waited too long, and that his thirst for power had extinguished his conscience for family affection. With your grandmother and the Huns behind him, he chose not to wait any longer. ”

Yun Xiao looked at the night sky in the distance, and the stars were still blinking playfully. But the struggle for power goes back and forth. How much ugliness do these stars have to witness?

Whether in Donghu or Han, power was something that people earned and seized. But fortunately, there will be no father-son cannibalism in Liu Qi's dynasty, so when Liu Xiaozhu's father and son kill their wives and grandchildren, can they still deal with it calmly?

Yun Xiao shook his head helplessly, the wheel of history will move along its own inherent path. I may be the praying mantis, but whether I can stop the rolling wheels is really a matter of not knowing. Everyone has something they want to protect. Even with all your might, some things still can't be protected.

The third princess rested her head on Yun Xiao's chest, and now she felt that this man's chest was the safest place in the world. She is simple but not stupid, she knows that what Yun Xiao said is the truth. Zalandin had complained more than once that he had waited too long, and he had heard it from many people.

The sound of fighting outside resounded in the sky, and the screams became more and more dense. In a trance, the third princess could even hear the sound of the impact of swords. Her eyes closed in agony. Curled up in Yun Xiao's arms like a cat.

"Take me away, okay? Take me to a world without swords. Okay? Please! ”

"The human heart is deceitful, and the killing is determined by the human heart behind the sword. Why put the blame on the head of a bunch of tools, as long as there are people there will be swords. The human heart is more terrible than the sword, so the world is full of dangers. If you want to live in peace. You can only be strong. Only the strong are not afraid of the sword. You see that Zhangye City is so chaotic, but there has never been a person who dares to approach this post house. ”

Yun Xiao patted the third princess on the back. There is a strong confidence in the tone. This self-confidence comes from strong force, if you have a dog-beating stick then the dog will not dare to bite you. If you have a long, sharp knife, a hungry wolf will hide far away.

There are two thousand tigers and wolves in his yard. If they are released, the shape of Zhangye City will be reversed. This is Yun Xiao's support, and there are killings everywhere in the chaotic Zhangye City. The post house is so quiet that no one dares to approach even the street next to the post house. The corpses lying in pools of blood are examples.

John was met with stubborn resistance at the first moment of the roundup, and Zalandin's men used the courtyard to deal with him. Zabulhei's men later also participated, but fortunately John blocked the city gate in advance, otherwise the army of Zabulhei outside the city would have been unpredictable.

There was only one night, and now the army outside the city did not understand what was happening in the city. All the problems must be solved tonight, and if it drags on until tomorrow then the army outside the city may attack the city. His 5,000 Sun God Guards alone could not stop tens of thousands of troops.

"General, the Prince's mansion is built like a fortress. There are arrow towers and secret passages everywhere, and our people can't rush into it even after rushing a few times. ”

One of his subordinates came to report to John, covered in blood.

Standing on a high place, John had already seen the situation on the battlefield, and the sergeants of the Helios Guard were constantly being killed by cold arrows. Even if you rush into the courtyard, you will be hacked to death by the people who rush out of the tunnel.

"With fire oil, burn."

John gave a cold order. The Western Regions are rich in fierce fire oil, and these slimy things will burn as long as they are lit, and they are accompanied by a lot of smoke. The Donghu people knew how to put these things into clay pots and use them to siege the city very early.

Countless earthen pots were thrown into Zalandin's house, followed by countless torches. Almost instantly, Zalandin's beautiful mansion turned into a large torch, and people were constantly being roasted out of the arrow towers and secret passages. Then he was contaminated with fire oil and turned into a fire man, and the sound of screams came and went. The scorching stench of human flesh soared into the sky, and even the vicious dogs around John covered their noses and whimpered.

As soon as the mouth is opened, it is a little unbearable, and if you put the first job, there will be a second one. The Sablhei Mansion, where resistance was even more fierce, became the second fire.

The Sabul Mansion, which was smaller than Zalandin's house, was burned like a torch. The recalcitrant soldiers were either burned to death by the fire or smoked to death. The round-up turned into a massacre, and fires broke out everywhere in Zhangye City. As long as the family dares to resist, it will inevitably suffer the baptism of fire.

The neighbors of these families were all unlucky, and the fierce fire caused them to suffer from the seedlings of the pond fish. They had to keep pouring snow on the roof to keep their house from being roasted. The roasted snow flows like a trickle down the eaves of a house, then seeps into the dirt or turns into vapour and evaporates into the sky.

The chaos in Zhangye City lasted for a whole night, and John approached Zalandin's mansion. Now a corpse is needed, Zalandin's corpse. Even if it's a tired corpse, as long as it can be delivered. As long as King Donghu wanted his son to die, he didn't say how he would die, and John naturally didn't ask. Presumably, burning this kind of death will be the heart of King Donghu.

"General, I've searched for it. There is no body of the Great Prince. ”

A soldier of the Helios Guard reports.

"Find me three feet into the ground." (To be continued......)
