Duan Jinjin ignored what he said and just made a serious face: "The army led by Southern Xinjiang is going to enter the country in large numbers, and the army led by Western Region threatens to break through the city gate. Has His Highness the Crown Prince thought about how to deal with it?"

The prince was dumbfounded.

He pointed at Duan Jinjin, "You...you, you threaten me! What are your intentions!"

He had a panic expression on his face, and then he pulled out a sword from his hand: "They dare! If they dare to do this, my imperial guards, my imperial guards will definitely beat them to pieces!"

Seeing that the prince still naively thought that the Imperial Guards were the opponents of those people, all the civil and military officials in the court sighed in unison.

At this time, a black shadow suddenly rushed in from outside the palace and approached the prince in an instant. The prince was startled, and he didn't even have time to call for help. He was suppressed to the ground by the black shadow, and his fists were hard to fight with four hands. He was severely beaten. He pressed him hard to the ground.

The prince's screams echoed through the entire hall like a gust of wind and rain. Although you couldn't see his expression, you could imagine that his eyes were about to burst at this moment: "Bold assassin, let me go quickly!"

Xiao Xingyun picked up the long sword that fell on the ground and said: "Anyone who dares to point a sword at my grandfather has already gone to hell."

After saying this, he sent an order to the outside world: "Ye Jin, surround us."

Ye Jin came out from nowhere, and his figure was as fast as lightning. He quickly stepped forward and strangled the prince's mouth, tied him up, and pressed him to the ground.

The Imperial Guards, whose armor was heavy and made a sound when walking, surrounded the entire palace. The few palace maids and eunuchs left in the palace screamed and fled in panic.

The imperial guards raised their swords and killed them all.

The civil and military officials in the court were so frightened that they did not dare to say a word. They all knelt down and prostrated, for fear that their heads would fall to the ground in the next second.

The prince's eyes were red, he struggled hard and looked at Xiao Xingyun almost pleadingly.

However, Xiao Xingyun just stood in the main hall, holding a sword in his hand, and his black clothes added a coldness, and said to Ye Jin: "Leave this place to me, you take people to search the harem."

Ye Jin naturally understands the matter of "searching the harem". These three words mean nothing more than "looking for Shen Yuan". He bowed his hands, said yes, and immediately flew out of the hall as fast as the wind.

The hall was eerily quiet, and Duan Jinjin's face was as dark as the night before a rainstorm.

After a long time, a cry was suddenly heard among the ministers: "General Xiao, spare your life!"

Xiao Xingyun raised his hand and said nothing.

The rest of the people looked extremely ugly. What a shame! The rebels entered the palace, the current prince was held hostage, all the female eunuchs in the palace died tragically for no reason, and some people bowed their heads and begged for mercy for their lives! Shame!

Although Xiao Xingyun didn't speak, Duan Jinjin spoke, but his tone didn't sound like he was addressing the minister begging for mercy.

His voice was surprisingly calm, incompatible with his dark complexion. Although it was calm, it was pressed very tightly, and there was a kind of coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow.

"You kill the royal family, kill the Xiao family, and destroy the barbarian army. You are the one who holds the power and our lives. Logically speaking, I am just meat on your chopping board. I have no other choice but to be slaughtered by you... ...But as long as I live in this world, I will never allow this world to become the world of the Xiao family! Unless you kill me first!"

Duan Jinjin's voice paused for a moment, and already had a slight tremor: "But there is only one person who has been honest all his life and has strict discipline. He is a good general. I sincerely hope that General Xiao will take care of his kindness in raising him and give me my life in exchange for it." Give him his life and let him live..."

At that moment, Xiao Xingyun was in a daze for a moment.

He understood that he would have to bear all the infamy when he embarked on this road, because if he did not take this road, then Zhao Qingce would take it. However, Xiao Xingyun did not expect that history would overlap like this. When he thought of his grandfather in his previous life, It was also in this hall that he begged Zhao Qingce like this, and he felt that his heart was bleeding.

The person grandpa begged him to let go must be Shen Dayan, Shen He's eldest son.

The same was true for my grandfather in his previous life. He put down his majesty as the founding general of the country and begged Zhao Qingce in a low voice to let General Shen and the Shen family go. But what did Zhao Qingce do? Except for Shen Yuan, he didn't even leave a single member of the Shen family behind. Even his grandfather didn't know how he tortured him to death.

Xiao Xingyun realized that he had to go against everything in the past. Only by picking up the knife could he protect them. Putting down the knife would end up being the same as in his previous life, and he would be slaughtered by others, even if he risked the world's scorn, even if he would be infamous for thousands of years. , even if everyone who once stood by his side moved away from him, he would never retreat even half a step.

Moreover, he must clearly separate his rebellious self from his righteous grandpa. Grandpa's great reputation must not be ruined by this brat like him.

Xiao Xingyun silently opened the corners of his lips and sneered suddenly: "Do you want to plead for Shen Dayan?"

Hearing his voice, Duan Jinjin felt as if a blazing fire was burning in his heart, but his voice still had the coldness and determination of cruel indifference: "Yes."

At that moment, time seemed to stretch into eternity.

But it was just a moment.

There was no sound in the main hall at first, and then a clear "clang" sound was heard.

It was the sound of a sharp dagger sealing its throat with blood, falling from a person's hand, and falling to the ground.

All civil and military officials in the court were stunned.

Blood filled the air from the temple.

The proud old general did not die on the battlefield he was proud of, but died on the day when the enemy invaded the palace. With pride all over his body, he fell resolutely and quietly into a pool of blood. Like a true warrior, he fought until the end.

Xiao Xingyun's eyes were filled with blood, and his slender eyes were about to be submerged by bloodshot eyes. But in the end, he could only forcefully suppress the overwhelming force that burst out from his body like a trapped animal, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not After pressing it down, he spit out a large mouthful of bright red blood.

Dashan and Dajiang were shocked. Why did the boss suddenly vomit blood?

Dashan winked, and Dajiang led a group of forbidden troops and took all the civil and military officials into custody.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the entire hall was empty except for the roaring sound of the wind.

He calmed down the war in the Northern Desert, incorporated Liu Daofeng's refugee army, took over the imperial guard's military power, conquered the vast northern barbarian land, gathered tens of thousands of northern barbarian cavalry, and captured the snow-covered ice land that had been covered in dust for thousands of years. Xiao Xingyun, the rebel leader who had gathered millions of lions in the cold plains deep in the snowy area, was so panicked at this moment that he started crying like a young man and shouted desperately: "Xuan Zhang Bai Yi! Hurry!"

The river rushed out like the wind.

Xiao Xingyun hugged Duan Jinjin, his hands covered with blood, and his face looked so helpless.

Is history irresistible?

Xiao Xingyun asked himself over and over again in his heart, what is the purpose of living again?

Since Duan Jinjin's death, Xiao Xingyun seemed to have died too, leaving only a corpse in the world.

The person was buried, but he did not dare to make a big show of it because he wanted to avoid suspicion. Xiao Xingyun leaned in front of the pavilion of Duan Mansion, not eating, drinking, talking, or walking anywhere. Ye Jin was afraid that something would happen to him, so he ordered Da Jiang to stay with him.

Dajiang asked: "General Xiao, Master Duan, do you want... to bury anything with him?"
