The leader's fall made the killers realize that Xuan Yin's reinforcements had arrived earlier.

But the two support they have been waiting for have not yet arrived.

The mutual distrust between the several parties caused them to miss the opportunity to jointly encircle and suppress Xuan Yin at the beginning; after discovering that Xuan Yin was extremely difficult to kill, all parties wanted to preserve their strength and reduce casualties.

Life and death are exhausted until the last chance is left to kill Yan Xi.

If they lose this time, all of them will die.

This instead led to their close cooperation at the last moment.

All the killers swarmed up.

Yan Xi stood among the corpses, he held Liu Shuang tightly with his right hand, looked at the killers coming like a tide, and said to himself very softly: "Come on."

The long street in Jingdu is deserted.

Shang Baiheng failed to reach the Xuanzhai.

When he reached an important road leading to the Xuanzhai, he was blocked by the set card in front of him.The soldiers guarding the card saw that he was an official of the official department, so they didn't make things difficult for him, waved him and told him to go back.

Shang Baiheng didn't have martial arts, so he couldn't break through this card.

He did not argue, but silently took out the fire folder and lit the lantern in his hand.

The cyan fire ignited, reflecting the "Qingming Landscape Painting" on the lanterns like spring.

He walked back with the lantern in his hand, someone in the dark saw his light, followed him and met him at a corner.

Someone came to ask Shang Baiheng: "Mr. Qingming, all the manpower has arrived, what will we do tonight?"

"It's difficult to wake up the sting, and the checkpoint is still there, which means that the enemy's strategy has not yet been completed, and it is still early, so they must be waiting for support. I think this post is close to Lu Gong's mansion, and my friends do what they can, and choose the opportunity to intercept the support going to Xuanzhai."

"Understood." The man nodded and disappeared into the night.

Later facts proved that Shang Baiheng had a clear understanding of the situation in Jingdu, and the Lu family's support was cut off in Shang Baiheng's planning and failed to reach Xuanzhai.

After Wei Chifeng issued an order to mobilize Jinyiwei's back office, on the way to Xuanzhai, he encountered the Han family's killer who was hesitantly waiting for orders.

When Wei Chifeng heard that they were anxiously waiting for the order to kill Xuan Yin, he crouched in the hiding place, gritted his teeth and waited for the brothers from Jinyiwei's back office.

The two parties met on the narrow road leading to Xuanzhai, and Jin Yiwei's brother drew his sword head-on.

The killer of the Han family didn't go to the battlefield, nor could he go back.

Song Yuexiao's Snow-Treading Army was about to break through the city gate, the west gate of Jingdu opened from the inside, Chunyu Nanyan and Yan Ling'er boarded the gate to welcome the Snow-Treading Army into the city.

Song Yuexiao sent people to take over the west gate, and the army went to the other three gates.

The guards at the north, south, and east gates were wondering why the snow troopers outside the city were suddenly silent, and when they turned their heads, they heard iron hooves vibrating.

The white frost-like blade came straight from the city, and Song Yuexiao, dressed in red, took the lead and recognized her soldiers fighting: "It's the commander... the commander Song is here!"

Song Yuexiao's saber pierced the night, and her voice spread far and wide: "I, Song Yuexiao, have ordered to serve the king, surrender and not kill!"

The sound of fighting hastily resounded in the night, and the red tide of the Snowwalking Army poured in, annihilating all resistance.

Chonghua Palace.

Ming Zhong said through the door: "My lord, it's done."

The chill in Emperor Tianxi's eyes settled down.

Only those who are most familiar with him can see his obviously relaxed mood at the moment, and he said pointedly: "The guards in your palace are a little weak."

Yan Zhener didn't mind the success or failure of this corner of Chonghua Palace, he sat still and said to Emperor Tianxi: "Do you know where I sent people?"

Emperor Tianxi looked at him expressionlessly.

Yan Zhener laughed coldly, he leaned forward slightly and asked, "Xuan Yin is Yan Xi, right?"

After finishing speaking, he stared at Emperor Tianxi, and sure enough, he saw Emperor Tianxi frowned slightly.

Yan Zhener finally had the feeling of making a comeback.

"I thought that a person like you would do anything to abandon his wife and son, and would not be particularly merciful to anyone. I didn't expect you to have a certain preference for Xiaoqi. You once made him the prince, and you pretended to be the prince all these years.I don’t care about it, but in fact, I’m sending a teacher and taking the champion exam. I wish that the five government departments and six departments would ask him to practice. You’ve bet all your hopes on him, right?” Yan Zhener couldn’t help laughing complacently, “I'm going to show you what it's like to lose hope."

"Before that, I planned to let you in." Emperor Tianxi's expression was gloomy, "But you shouldn't touch Xiaoxi."

"Did you hit your sore spot? Hahaha." Yan Zhener quickly reviewed today's plan in his mind, and several families killed a "Xuan Yin". Even with the protection of Beiyuan Palace, Xuan Yin would have no way out.He felt that there was no need to suppress himself anymore, so he stood up suddenly, looked at Emperor Tianxi and said, "You just wait to collect his body."

Emperor Tianxi's face was covered with frost, and his ruthless expression became louder in the blink of an eye, and he took a step forward.

Yan Zhener was forced to take a step back by his momentum.

Emperor Tianxi said dangerously: "Yanzhen, I also want to make you feel the feeling of losing hope."

"Losing hope? Wait—" Yan Zhener jerked suddenly, realizing something, he tried to calm himself, "What did you call me?"

Emperor Tianxi looked at Yan Zhen and said: "The eldest son of the dignified late emperor, Yi Bian Erchai for twenty-three years, Yan Zhen, you can really bear it."

"I'm not—" Yan Zhener hid under the princess skin for too long, instinctively afraid of being exposed, "I'm a princess."

Emperor Tianxi said: "Do you want someone to come for a medical examination? Yanzhen, save some dignity for yourself."

Yan Zhen's expression changed, and finally stopped in anger: "So what if I'm the prince! You still can't kill me! Besides, you don't have a prince left, and the Yan family only has me! If you dare to touch me, how can you talk to Lie?"Zu Liezong explained?"

"I never give an account to anyone. I am not afraid of the living, but why should I be afraid of the dead." Emperor Tianxi said indifferently, "You should be lucky, I will let you live."

After hearing this, Yan Zhen did not let down her vigilance.Because Emperor Tianxi is too ruthless, and has very cruel hobbies, like a lunatic.When Emperor Tianxi said to let him live, he immediately thought of countless terrible ways to live.

But Yanzhen still underestimated the ruthless methods of Emperor Tianxi.

Emperor Tianxi said coldly: "Since you like being a princess so much, I will let you be a princess forever!"

Yan Zhen immediately thought of castration, but there has never been a child of the royal family who received this punishment in the history books, so he asked with a glimmer of hope: "What do you mean?"

"Ming Zhong." Emperor Tianxi said flatly, "Send two eunuchs from the cleansing room."

Ming Zhong answered outside.

Yan Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then his face became very ferocious: "How dare you! The imperial edict written by my father is still there, and the Minister Gu Ming was not dead. How dare you openly disobey my father and use this kind of life to me?Isn't it better to die than to shake people's hearts and endanger the country?!"

Emperor Tianxi said calmly: "Who knows you are the prince?"

Yan Zhen said: "Of course there are!"

Emperor Tianxi stared at Yan Zhen and said, "Who?"

Yan Zhen was stunned.The late emperor's survivor is his last trump card, he can't say that.

Emperor Tianxi saw through Yan Zhen's scruples, and he said mercilessly: "Even if someone knows, it doesn't matter, as long as I am here, no one will have the chance to tell."

Yan Zhen shouted: "Are you trying to point a deer into a horse!"

"I am the emperor." Emperor Tianxi said gloomyly, "What I say is the golden rule."

Yan Zhen pointed to Emperor Tianxi and said: "Yan Nan, my father entrusted the land to you to let you rule the world, not to do it arbitrarily."

Emperor Tianxi pushed Yan Zhen's hand away with his bracelet, and said: "I am your father's companion, and I know your father better than you. What you know is what other people want you to hear. About your fatherIt is not your turn to teach me about the emperor."

Yan Zhen vaguely guessed something from the calmness of Emperor Tianxi's control over everything. The hope in his heart was faltering, and he said sharply: "But you can't treat me like that! You don't have a prince anymore!"

At this moment, Emperor Tianxi withdrew his gaze. He remembered something long ago, and said with an obviously relieved expression: "Da Jing has a crown prince, so you can be your princess."

"Yan Xi?" The hope in Yan Zhen's heart was collapsing, he said in disbelief, "He didn't die tonight?"

Emperor Tianxi said with his hands behind his back: "Now, the Snow-Treading Army has controlled the gates of the four cities, and all those who make decisions arbitrarily in the five cities will be punished as rebels. Also, Jin Yiwei took people overnight. Guess, those old officials you mentionedHow many fish slipped through the net?"

Yan Zhen froze in place.

Then he sat back sullenly.

Yan Zhen helped his slightly disheveled hair, and calmly analyzed the truth of what Emperor Tianxi said.

He understood very clearly in his heart that there was no need for Emperor Tianxi to lie to him, because as long as Emperor Tianxi dared to use "castration" on him, it would mean that Emperor Tianxi did have a heir apparent.

Yanzhen remained silent, the arrogance on his body was fading visibly to the naked eye.

He is an extremely intelligent man, and when he finds himself helpless, he turns to looking for ways of self-preservation.

It took him a long time to get out of the silence, and said: "So what if you are Yan Xi like this? Has he visited you in the past few years?"

Emperor Tianxi said: "I don't need him to see it."

Yan Zhen tried his best to sit upright: "How much does Yan Xi know about what you asked the imperial concubine to do? He still doesn't know that the imperial concubine was killed with your acquiescence, right? He also doesn't know that the imperial concubine was used as a pawn by you when she was alive."How many relationships are balanced?"

Emperor Tianxi remained silent.

Yan Zhen thought quickly and said, "I've thought about it, and I will lose to you today, only to Beiyuan Palace. But I don't understand why Song Yuexiao and Song Beiming are willing to help you."

Emperor Tianxi indifferently watched Yan Zhen fighting the trapped beast.

Yan Zhen continued:

"Back then you used the noble concubine to get close to the son. Song Xinghe kindly helped the noble concubine, but he was accused of being an abrupt concubine. As a result, Song Xinghe was deprived of his position as the son. Beiyuan hated the noble concubine because of this."

"Five years ago when the Langfeng Pass was defeated, it has always been rumored that the noble concubine leaked the military plan. Beiyuan hated the noble concubine so much."

"Even the Martyr's Shrine of the old prince and the old princess was trampled because of the use of golden nanmu for the reconstruction of the mausoleum of the noble concubine."

"Also, Song Beiming was locked in Jingdu by you for five years."

"What you did, no matter how you look at it, it's because you don't like Beiyuan. Beiyuan should hate you."

Having said this, Yan Zhen looked up at Emperor Tianxi.

Emperor Tianxi didn't intend to give Yanzhen an answer. The people outside were already washing the ground with water. Hearing the sound of water, he seemed to see the blood being washed away.

Yan Zhen deduced it himself:

"But judging from tonight, everyone has been misled by you."

"If you don't like Beiyuan, how can you allow Beiyuan to sit in the university?"

"Putting aside your true and false plans, you are actually partial to Beiyuan. Beiyuan started at the end of the century, and Song Qing is your imperial king of the opposite sex. The Song family has flourished all the way, and it has already touched the foundation of the four surnames. If you don't balance it,The four surnames will eradicate Beiyuan with your own hands. Beiyuan is the knife you sharpened, and you have long wanted to use Beiyuan to eradicate the four surnames, right?"

"Only the noble concubine understands you and is willing to pay the price of fame for your plan, but so what, you still want the noble concubine's life."

"The most poisonous emperor's heart, how cruel you are. If you are like this, has the noble concubine turned into a ghost to come to you?"

When Emperor Tianxi heard this, he was slightly taken aback. He found that he couldn't imagine Tang Yaoxue turning into an evil ghost. His Xue'er was always pure and beautiful.Would such a docile person really come to complain?If yes, why didn't you come after five years?

Yan Xi saw Emperor Tianxi's looseness, and desperate madness appeared in his eyes: "You are a complete loser."

Emperor Tianxi said with a gloomy expression, "My merits and demerits will be judged by posterity, not by you."

Yan Zhen felt happy from this kind of verbal stimulation: "But you are also Yan Nan. You are Tang Yaoxue's Erlang, are you worthy of her?"

Emperor Tianxi did not answer.

"Yan Xi will never forgive you for everything you have done." Yan Zhen said viciously, "Have you ever thought that the crown prince you choose yourself will become the knife that kills you in the end."

"It's best for him not to forgive me. As the superior, he has a firm will and no personal feelings. If he can really become a king-killing knife, I will be very relieved." Emperor Tianxi's face was terrifyingly calm, "I, Yan Nan, waiting for that day."

At this moment, Ming Zhong knocked on the door three times outside: "My lord, the people from the cleansing room have arrived."

Emperor Tianxi said: "Yanzhen, from today onwards, you will be a real princess. You and I hate each other, so let's say goodbye. When I die, someone will come to see you off."

Yan Zhen cursed desperately: "Yan Nan, I will keep an eye on you father and son!"

Emperor Tianxi turned his head and stopped looking at him: "It's up to you."

Yan Zhener watched Emperor Tianxi go out, the palace door opened, the ground outside was clean and damp, the bloody light before was like an illusion, Ming Zhong was followed by two old eunuchs carrying things.

Yan Zhen tensed up all over.

All his rationality was used to maintain his last dignity as the emperor's son.

Just when Emperor Tianxi stepped out of the palace gate, Yan Zhen tried his best to suppress his fear, and asked the question he had been wanting to ask all night: "A tiger's poison does not eat its offspring, did you really kill Yan Xu?"

Emperor Tianxi paused, and did not give him an answer to this question.

The clean room sent two veteran eunuchs, and the two old eunuchs came in carrying barrels and wooden boxes, followed by a row of tall eunuchs.

The wooden box was opened as far as Yan Zhen could see, and all kinds of knives inside were shining sharply. The old eunuch raised his knives, and the eunuchs came over with twisted ropes.

Yan Zhen tightened his fingers vigorously, his nails scratched deep marks on the sandalwood armrest, the beautiful nails broke, and blood flowed from his fingers.

This noble man who kills people like eating chess pieces, when the bloody mouth of fate opens to him, fear and humbleness will not bypass him.

Yan Zhen screamed: "Don't come over, get out—"

The exquisite and beautiful Bu Yao and pearl hairpins were scattered all over the place, and Yan Zhener's hair was disheveled, screaming pitifully.

Outside the Chonghua Palace, the green woman was pressed to the ground, and under Ming Zhong's instruction, the palace people sang in unison: "Slaves and servants wish the Eldest Princess a happy body and golden peace."

Outside Xuanzhai.

"Northern wind startled the snow" sprinted forward, Song Beiming raised his knife and fell, toppled many people along the way.

The dark guards and the palace guards he brought are well-trained, and under the personal leadership of the young prince, they are as powerful as a bamboo.

The Snow-Treading Army also brought in a team, and Song Yuexiao also gave the firecracker team to Song Beiming. Wudongdong's muzzle was raised, the formation of the regular army was frightening, and some of the killers retreated timidly.

The "sorrowful wind" cut through the night, and the place where the knife fell was full of blood.

The alley outside Xuanzhai is not long, but Song Beiming felt that the process of getting through it was extremely long.

Song Beiming remembered that his parents passed away five years ago, he couldn't do anything, he was dormant in Jingdu, and he had to get Emperor Tianxi's consent to step out of Jingdu.

Nothing to do, nothing to do, nowhere to go.

It seems that an invisible hand is holding his fate. It is useless to fight and negotiate, and there is no way to counter it.

He experienced the despair and anxiety of being overwhelmed. At that time, he even almost killed the seventh prince Yan Xi.

In order to prevent himself from being in the pain of that day, Song Beiming has done many things in the past few years. He thought he was invulnerable.

Even when he was bewitched by "Xuan Yin", he always thought that he was sober and would not add any more weaknesses.

But he found that now that pain came to him again.

Beifeng Jingxue ran faster and faster, and at the turn closest to the Xuanzhai, Song Beiming jumped up, swung a knife and chopped down the person who was about to jump off the Xuanzhai.

He kicked open the courtyard door, and was blinded by the blood mist at first.

Then he saw Zi Yuan slashing people with a sword covered in blood.

The tragedy of the battle exceeded his imagination, he frowned forcefully, unable to distract himself from questioning his heart, he just wanted to find that figure.

As soon as Song Beiming appeared, people surrounded him.

His sorrowful wind seemed to be filled with wind and snow, and it was swept away with powerful force, causing a bone-chilling chill.

The fiercest swordsman is about to rule the Shura battlefield, and the real tide of killing is coming.

The killers were already shaken by the tormenting battle situation, but now they were suppressed by the surging force, and their fear of war reached its peak.

Song Beiming stepped in a pool of blood, where the sad wind pointed, everyone retreated.

He stepped on the broken limb all the way forward, and the high-pitched clang of the mournful wind was heartbreaking.

The absolute declaration of power caused the killers to retreat.

Amidst the thick blood, there was a shrill scream.

Song Beiming finally found the pure and beautiful moon god in his heart. At this time, in the hall of Xuanzhai where he once kissed "Xuan Yin", the corner of the beauty's robe was dripping with blood, and her usually white fingers were windingWith blood dripping down, a man in black was trampled under his feet, and a head was harvested with a knife.

The blood soaked the flow of frost again.
