The sound of horses' hooves on the street was endless, frightening the people to close their doors and windows, not daring to come forward, what are these military masters going to do.

Outside the road gate

"Your Excellency, the ministers have arrived outside Gaomen, and the garrison has entered the imperial city. Li Mao's face was gloomy, "Don't stop them, let them come in smoothly." ”

"Yes. ”

Li Mao gritted her teeth, "Have you found Chonghua?"

"Not yet. ”

"Then go and find him, dig three feet into the ground in this imperial city, and find him. ”

Li Mao wanted to kill the emperor's crown prince, supported Li Chonghua, and coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, justifiably become a regent and become the hidden emperor. The plan couldn't stop at this point.

He planned for nine years and calculated the day of the emperor's death, but at a critical time, Li Chonghua disappeared. He didn't believe that Li Chonghua would die, and he must have been hidden by the old emperor.

But just in case, there's a backup option.

This backup choice is Yi Shang, if Li Chonghua can't be found, he will marry Yi Shang and supervise the country as the imperial husband.

"Hurry up and let Ling Huaizhi send Yi Sheng into the city!"

Outside the Gao Gate, some civil ministers and military generals slammed the door with the government soldiers, rushing the car like a tiger wolf, and the palace gate shook.

Here, Li Mao was also trying his best to attack the road gate, and he was not sure whether the old emperor was alive or dead for a moment, and he was not at ease for a moment.

Suddenly a pigeon fell to the ground, Li Mao grabbed it, took off the note, his pupils constricted, alive, the old emperor is still alive?

Such a large dose is obviously certain death!

Li Mao was shocked, what if the old emperor wanted Bao Yizhan in front of hundreds of officials, "Stop them! Don't let them in!"

"Plant explosives for me and blow up this broken door!"

"Rocket, ready!"

Li Mao was fully prepared, and one by one the explosives bags were stacked, booming, shaking the inside and outside of the palace to tremble.

The old emperor's face turned pale and asked Zhan Changfeng, "Guopo, what should you do?"

"The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies. "Zhan Changfeng is fearless and fearless," just one life. ”

"Brute!" the old emperor slapped her, his eyes red, "I have cultivated you for so many years, are you going to die like this at the hands of the thief!"

"Remember, you are not the Son of Heaven yet, I am the Son of Heaven!" the old emperor trembled his hands and pointed outward, "Get out, go to the Scripture Pavilion, there is a secret passage under the ninth bookshelf, get out!"

"Grandfather!" Zhan Changfeng could agree, "You have already passed the throne to me an hour ago. ”

"Yi Zhan!" The old emperor grabbed her tightly, and the muddy tears in his eyes were about to fall, "The Yin Dynasty can die, but the Yi family can't die in your hands, except for the prince, you are still a descendant of the Yi family!"

"Get out!" the old emperor gave her a hard push.

Zhan Changfeng pursed his lips, his eyes struggling.

The shouts of killing outside were deafening.

She knelt down on her knees and kowtowed to the old emperor three times, "Grandson is not filial." ”

Zhan Changfeng took one last look at the old emperor and led the crowd out, "Are all the people in the palace here?"

Zero said: "Most of them are in the side hall, but Mrs. Ran doesn't want to come." ”

Zhan Changfeng clenched his fists, "Then forget it, let those who are willing to leave the palace alone keep up." ”

In a crisis, Zhan Changfeng summoned the Praetorian Guards and secret guards who were loyal to her, and retreated in the direction of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion with the women and children in the palace.

Suddenly, a thousand fires and rains struck.

"Hidden!"

More than a dozen secret guards with superb martial arts spun around, dancing with swords, like ink lotus blooming in the firelight, shooting down countless arrows.

The Praetorian Guards formed a wall of flesh, blocking in front of Zhan Changfeng and the women and children, "Your Highness, go quickly!"

The brilliant fire was reflected in her eyes with blood, and the sorrow grew, but sadly, she couldn't turn back.

Everyone took a shortcut, far away from the fire and rain, the environment became more and more quiet, there was no figure, and the palace quietly showed a dilapidated appearance.

More than 1,000 people, when they came to the Scripture Pavilion, there were only three or four hundred left.

Zhan Changfeng entered the Scripture Pavilion, found the ninth bookshelf, groped for the mechanism, and suddenly felt a trace of murderous aura.

"Puff"

The blade sank into the flesh.

Zhan Changfeng glanced at the person standing in front of her, and with a flick of the sword in his hand, he nailed the person who had stabbed her among the women and children to the bookshelf.

"How are you!" Zhan Changfeng squatted down and frowned at the girl who was blocking the knife for her.

A knife into the heart, there is no cure.

This innocent girl's eyes were confused, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "It turns out that you are the prince." ”

Zhan Changfeng remembered that she was the daughter of the Zhao family who met in the plum garden that day.

"Don't speak. Zhan Changfeng gave her a few acupuncture points, so that she was not so painful when she was dying.

"Your Highness, they're catching up!" Zero shouted, looking at the assassin with hatred, she must have left a clue on the way.

The Praetorian Guards were like a rainbow, "Sons, kill with me, and swear not to let them step into the Hidden Scripture Pavilion!"

Zhan Changfeng no longer wasted time, found Jituo, and moved the entire bookshelf away, revealing a hole.

Blood was splashed on the doors and windows of the Scripture Pavilion, and the hearts of those who had time to evacuate in the future were like ashes, and a broken secret guard swept away the others, pressed the machine again, and the tunnel was closed. Then he silently slaughtered the enemy who rushed in.

This secret passage was the last escape route of the royal family, and it could only be used once, and when the tunnel was closed, the entire Scripture Pavilion began to shake and collapse.

The Temple of Nourishing the Heart

Li Mao kicked open the door of the palace and saw the old emperor wearing an imperial robe with red stripes on a black background, holding the sword of the Son of Heaven, standing on the jade steps and looking down on him.

The sword was stained with blood, and there were dead people at the bottom of the stairs. There are palace concubines, there are maidservants, there are attendants.

The undead stood beside him neatly dressed.

The palace concubine is dignified and noble, the maid is virtuous and respectful, and the attendant holds a knife and regards death as home.

"You and other sinners, it's not a pity to die, Lone is waiting for you under the Nine Springs!"

The other palace concubines, maidservants, and attendants all committed suicide.

Li Mao's heart jumped, and he took off the jade pendant on his waist and bent the sword in the old emperor's hand, and the blade only had time to rub a bloody mark on his neck.

"I'm here to save you, Your Majesty. Li Mao grabbed the old emperor and abolished his limbs, "Tell me quickly, where is Li Chonghua!"

The old emperor's face was distorted in pain, and he almost fainted, "You traitor!"

"How can I be a traitor, the prince has harmed you, I will come to the rescue, what's wrong. ”

"Besides, don't you still have a royal grandson, that's my good 'son', I will assist him well, in this world, isn't it surnamed Yi?"

The old emperor suddenly understood, he had been puzzled, although the Yin Dynasty was not very stable under the influence of natural disasters, but the Yang Dynasty, he was still there, the next emperor was still there, the loyal ministers and good generals were still there, and the people who believed in the temple were still there, so there was no reason why it would be completely destroyed.

The old emperor laughed and burst into tears, it turned out that it was destined nine years ago!

Li Yunqiu, Li Yunqiu, why did you steal the dragon and change the pillars! Why did you give him such a big opportunity!

"Heaven wants to kill me. The old emperor was miserable, "You die, you won't find him." ”

Li Mao smiled secretly, "It doesn't matter, your daughter is still there, and I am still right." ”
