One hundred and eight princes, more than half of the princes, have clearly taken refuge in the Marquis of Longteng.

"The remaining half of the princes should still be loyal to me. Even if it is four or six, I have the Tiandu Army, the City Guards, the royal guards, and the Ouchi masters! ”

Dongfang Lu is calculating the strength of both sides, as long as the remaining princes are loyal to him, plus those hole cards of the royal family, why be afraid of the Dragon Tenghou?

Of course, Dongfang Luzhi has not given up his illusions so far, fantasizing about surrendering without a fight.

It's just that the reality is much more cruel than he thought, and the remaining princes are only twenty or thirty families who have rushed into the palace one after another.

In other words, there are still twenty or thirty princes, and the attitude of neutrality is already very clear. doesn't take refuge in the Marquis of Longteng, but at this moment he doesn't listen to the royal family.

Neutrality!

For Dongfang Lu, the neutrality of these princes is a disaster for the royal family!

And the twenty or thirty princes who entered the palace were the sworn friends of the real Oriental family, and they were the iron-hearted Oriental faction. They also knew that if the Oriental clan was finished, they would definitely be finished. Once the Marquis of Long Teng seized power, it was impossible for them to continue to be free.

They and the interests of the royal family have long been tied together. Whether they want to or not, they must serve the royal family.

If the royal family endures, their riches will endure.

If the royal family does not exist, their family will inevitably be destroyed and replaced by a family that is eyeing the throne behind.

Among the four princes, the Marquis of Vermilion Bird has clearly taken refuge in the Marquis of Longteng.

And the White Tiger Hou and the Xuanwu Hou threw themselves into the royal family.

Now, these more than 20 princes are also looking forward to the White Tiger Hou and the Xuanwu Hou. With these two pillars, they still have some confidence.

"Your Majesty, the dragon is in turmoil, and it has become an established fact. Among the ministers, we should take the lead and dispatch the Tiandu army, the city guards, as well as the royal guards and the masters of Ouchi, to suppress the Marquis of Longteng on the spot. Otherwise, when their army arrives, the king will be in danger. ”

"White Tiger Hou is reasonable, suppressing Long Tenghou at this moment, our strength will not be weak, and even exceeded!"

Dongfang Lu was thinking, and he sadly found that this battle really seemed to be inevitable. couldn't hold it off, he wanted to drag it out until the ancestor came out of the customs, but it seemed that it would not work.

"Brother Wang, the personal guard of the Marquis of Longteng, made trouble in the royal capital and harassed the households. Are you still sitting idly by?" Princess Goyu was also in a hurry these days, and hurriedly walked in.

"Magata, you're just in time, I'm just in time to negotiate with all the princes......"

"Brother Wang, if we continue to negotiate, this king will change the sky. What they are searching for now is the Jiang family, but isn't it a deterrent to other princes? If the Jiang family is hunted down by him, what will the princes of all walks of life think in their hearts? Even if they are effectively loyal to the royal family, will they still have the courage to resist in the face of such a strong Marquis of Longteng?"

Princess Goyuyu was angry, she was angry that Brother Wang didn't listen to her, in the last incident when Long Yinye besieged the Marquis of Jianghan's Mansion, Brother Wang actually withdrew the Tiandu Army.

After that wrong move, the balance suddenly tilted, and the royal family fell from then on, losing the hearts of the people!

Although these princes also declared their allegiance to the royal family, it was not because of how loyal they were, but because their interests were too tightly tied to the royal family and could not be separated.

If they have a way out, how can they fight to the death for the royal family?

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, the Jiang family, as a royal courtier, disappeared and fled at a critical moment, but this defeated soldier who escaped from the battle doesn't have to care too much, right?" some princes persuaded.

Princess Goyu's phoenix eyes glared: "What does it mean to escape from the battle? The Jiang family is difficult to support alone, without the protection of the royal family, and choosing to avoid its edge is a rational choice." ”

"Hehe, the food of the king, the matter of loyalty. If he, Jiang Feng, fights to the death with the Marquis of Longteng for His Majesty and the great plan of the kingdom, then I admire it...... Who wouldn't run away?"

Dongfang Lu also nodded: "Hook Yu, what the Jiang family did disappointed me." I want to suppress Long Tenghou, but it has nothing to do with the Jiang family. ”

Magatama was speechless, she listened to Dongfang Lu's words, and her heart sank to the bottom. She knew that her brother Wang still couldn't persuade her after all.

What did it mean that the Jiang family's actions had disappointed him? He didn't want to think about how disappointed the Jiang family had been by what he had done before.

Gou Yu smiled bitterly, with a desolate expression: "Brother Wang, if you want me to fight to the death, my little sister will obey orders at any time." These major events of the government and politics, the little sister will not be involved. ”

The mourning is greater than the death of the heart, Princess Goyu saw the shadow of a dead king from the Dongfang deer, and saw the shadow of an indecisive loser.

"Magatama, at this time, you must stand on my side and stop thinking nonsense. That Jiang Chen escaped from the battle, and you don't have to worry about him. ”

Goatama was full of bitterness, silent, and walked out.

At this moment, there was a sharp birdsong in the air, and then, a loud shout came from above: "Dongfang Deer, come out." ”

It's Jiang Chen!

A hint of surprise flashed in Magatama's apricot eyes. Could it be that Jiang Chen finally changed his mind and was willing to come to assist Brother Wang in suppressing Long Tenghou?

"It's Jiang Chen!" all the princes heard Jiang Chen's voice.

The oriental deer's skin is purple, and this Jiang Chen actually calls it by his name, and there is no attention to the monarchs and ministers at all.

Sonor!

There was a crisp sound of metal hitting the stone steps of the palace.

Everyone followed the prestige, but saw a jade-inlaid gold medal, with a unique shape, which was the order of the princes.

"Dongfang Lu, this prince's order will be returned to you, from now on, my Jiang family and your Dongfang family will cut off their robes and break their righteousness, and they will have nothing to do with it. ”

Jiang Chen's voice was indifferent, driving the golden-winged sword bird, condescending, and majestic in mid-air, so that Dongfang Lu and the princes of all walks of life faintly felt ashamed of themselves.

"Jiang Chen, you eat the king's Lu, but you escaped from the battle, you Jiang family ......"

"The Dongfang family bears my Jiang family first, if you are not blind, you should be able to see it. Don't tell me that the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die. If there is chaos today, the strong are respected. You have this time to talk nonsense with me, you might as well think about how to deal with Long Tenghou. ”

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he was about to leave.

"Jiang Chen. Princess Goyu's heart ached, with tears in the corners of her eyes, and she cried out sadly, "Is this really not saved? ”

Princess Goyu is such a strong person, with a prominent background and a strong cultivation, when did she say half a soft word to anyone?

However, at this moment, she actually cried with tears and begged Jiang Chen!

"Goyu, I can help you escape from the sea of fire in the royal capital, but I won't help Dongfang Lu, the ****. ”

Oriental deer's face was hot.

"Jiang Chen, you have a deep blood feud with Long Tenghou, even if you don't help my Dongfang clan, you should put aside your suspicions and deal with Long Tenghou together. Princess Magatama persuaded again.

"Long Zhaofeng? hehe, there are just dry bones in the mound. After this battle, if his Long family wins, I have my own way to destroy the Long family. Why do you need to join forces with the Oriental Deer?"

Princess Gouyu has mixed tastes, she knows Jiang Chen better than these people, and she knows that this son contains too many secrets.

She had no doubt that Jiang Chen had the absolute strength to deal with Long Zhaofeng. It's just that now, what reason does Jiang Chen have to help the Dongfang clan?

"Jiang Chen......" Princess Goyu said bitterly, "Count me as the Dongfang clan who has lost you." I have only one request, please take Ruo'er away, and if you can, please take care of her for the rest of your life. ”

"This one does. Jiang Chen nodded.

Dongfang Lu snorted coldly: "Jiang Chen, why do I need you to take care of my daughter? My Dongfang clan still has all kinds of means, and I can definitely suppress Long Zhaofeng, a traitor." My princess of the royal family, how can you, a mountain villager, touch me?"

"Brother Wang!" Princess Goyu was shocked, Brother Wang had blocked the road behind the scenes.

Sure enough, Jiang Chen's face sank: "Gou Yu, if you need me to take care of Princess Zhiruo, find a way to contact me, I'll go!"

Goyu's body was paralyzed, and he sat down on the stone steps, his heart like ashes.

She is also completely dead to Dongfang Lu.

......

The search and arrest operation of Long Tenghou intensified, and the entire royal capital was in chaos. Corpses littered the streets.

When the rules are out of control, the violent factor will get out of control, and it will bring endless disasters like a wild beast out of its cage.

The kings began to die, and many people died.

Killing people and setting fires, chickens flying and dogs jumping, ghosts crying and wolves howling, day and night.

Fortunately, the place arranged by Qiao Baishi was extremely secluded and remote, and he didn't worry about being found for a while. It's just that if it goes on in this way, Jiang Chen is also worried about whether the Medicine Master Hall can hold up.

Jiang Chen thought about it, but decided to take the initiative into his own hands.

At that moment, a large number of Golden Wing Sword Birds and Silver Wing Sword Birds were dispatched to enter the city overnight, divided into several batches, and took away all the core people and horses who stayed in the royal capital.

In the darkness of the night, this air force is very mobile, and after about an hour, all the horses are sent out.

After a series of fruitless raids, the manhunt finally turned into a rebellion.

That night, the first wave of clashes broke out between the Tiandu Army and the elite of Longteng Hou.

Then, within the city guard, the two commanders declared their allegiance to the Marquis of Longteng, and the city guard army was divided.

Subsequently, a commander of the Tiandu Army, when he was on duty in the palace, suddenly reversed, led his subordinates to fight back to the palace, and fought with the royal guards.

Overnight, the royal capital was in chaos.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was out of the way, very relaxed. His own men and horses have withdrawn from the royal capital, and the main force of Sword Bird has also arrived.

As long as he gives an order, he can enter the royal capital, whether it is the Marquis of Longteng or the royal family, within an hour, it can definitely be suppressed!

It's just that the battle didn't stalemate for long. Dongfang Lu never thought that the Tiandu Army and the City Guard Army, which he had always thought were monolithic, were actually divided by Long Tenghou.

The internal division between the Tiandu Army and the City Guard Army greatly weakened the combat effectiveness of the royal family.

In order to usurp the throne and seize power, Long Zhaofeng secretly made a lot of preparations and recruited many masters, and his combat effectiveness was no worse than that of the Ouchi masters raised by the royal family.

The Ouchi master was pinned, and the hole card of the Oriental Deer was missing.

Three days later.

The outer defense of the palace was breached, and the eastern clan and the royal family guarded the core of the palace, making the most difficult struggle, and the princes and guards loyal to the royal family were basically wiped out.

The princes of all walks of life retreated to the palace and resisted to the death together with the Oriental clan.

The outside of the palace, three floors inside and three layers outside, has been completely surrounded.

The Oriental family is in danger.
