The guards retreated silently to the surroundings. In front of Qiankun Hall, Zheng Wei and Luo Fengxin were separated by dozens of steps.

The wind was strong, and the day that had been boring for a long time finally showed signs of heavy rain.

Zheng Wei yelled violently, and took the lead in attacking. A long knife slashed at Luo Fengxin continuously, every move was ferocious and brave.

Luo Fengxin retreated again and again. At first glance, he seemed to be at a disadvantage, but in fact his pace was not chaotic. He completely borrowed the retreat to remove Zheng Wei's attack power.

The reason why the name of Zheng's Benlei Saber Technique is to say that it rolls like a thunder in the sky, and then explodes suddenly, using a thunderous force to defeat the enemy with one move.

According to legend, during the reign of Emperor Gaozu of this dynasty, he encountered assassins during a southern tour. Zheng Wei, who was then the guard of Gaozu, blocked more than ten assassins with his own strength. The knife technique is also famous for it.

It's a pity that he himself is superb in martial arts, but his son learns it so easily, and his grandson Zheng Baorong thinks it's too hard to learn martial arts.

To say that Zheng Wei is quite talented in this area, but when he was sensible, his great-grandfather was already dead. He only learned a little from his half-baked grandfather, and when he became an adult, he was obsessed with women and did not want to make progress. Luo Fengxin, he might rely on his gender.

After more than twenty moves, Zheng Wei's stamina is weak, and the moves are not coherent.Luo Fengxin swung Zheng Wei's blade away, and sent the spear forward, directly between Zheng Wei's eyebrows.

Zheng Wei couldn't close the knife in time, so he turned sideways to dodge quickly, but was still injured by the point of the gun, and a finger-long gash was cut on his face, bleeding continuously.

A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, and then there was a thunderclap, and heavy rain poured down.

Rain mixed with sweat slid down from the wound, and Zheng Wei's injured left cheek was swollen high, forcing his left eye to only half open.

The pain stimulated Zheng Wei's nerves as his heart beat up and down. He knew that he might be buried here today, so every knife was more fierce than the other, and he wanted to use this final battle to vent his pent-up feelings for many days. resentment.

The rain blurred the sight of everyone present, and everyone couldn't see the specific moves of Zheng and Luo, only the sounds of "clang" and "clang" from the collision of weapons could be heard endlessly.

This time it was not Luo Fengxin who retreated.The more Zheng Wei fights unrestrainedly, the more holes will be created. Every time Luo Fengxin catches a hole, Zheng Wei will have many holes. At the end of the battle, Luo Fengxin saw the opportunity and shot Zheng Wei's sword.

The blade made an ear-piercing buzzing sound, Zheng Wei's jaw was numb, before he could recover, Luo Fengxin broke the tendon in his hand, the long knife fell to the ground, Zheng Wei lost too much blood, his eyes turned black and he fell to the ground, no longer fighting. force.

The whole process looked thrilling, but it was actually less than fifty strokes.

Zheng Wei felt that there was a gap between his own strength and Luo Fengxin's, but he thought that if he fought with his life, he should have a chance.But not only did he lose, he also lost so thoroughly, so ugly...

"Kill me." Zheng Wei said hoarsely, closing his eyes.

"You have done so many evil things, wouldn't it be too cheap to kill you like this." Luo Fengxin looked at him coldly from above.The torrential rain also drenched her face, but it didn't make her look embarrassed at all, on the contrary, she looked more determined.

Seeing Zheng Wei's defeat, the guards who watched the battle joined the team to suppress the chaos in order to atone for their sins.Most of Zheng Wei's confidantes dropped their weapons and surrendered on the spot, while a small number were still stubbornly resisting, and were defeated not long after.

Zheng Wei was tied up with a rope and brought to Luo Jinhe.He was covered in blood and looked sluggish. The exposed wound was washed by rain repeatedly, and the edges were swollen and white. It looked very disgusting.

"The first emperor trusted you, so he entrusted you with the command of the imperial army and ordered you to defend the imperial city. I have never treated you harshly since I was enthroned. Although I was reprimanded a few days ago, I did not punish you and demote you. I still believe in you." As before, but you actually took the lead in rebellion! Feel your conscience and say, are you worthy of the late emperor and your brothers who died in the imperial army?" Luo Jinhe pointed at the many corpses in front of Qiankun Palace and scolded.

Zheng Wei knew that he was defeated in the rebellion, and there must be no way out, but before he died, he still wanted to pull a back.

He looked at Queen Mother Chen bitterly.If it wasn't for this old witch, if it wasn't for the Chen family, how could he have fallen to where he is today!

"The late emperor treated me with such kindness as a mountain. How could I want to disappoint the late emperor? Of course the queen mother ordered me! It was she who encouraged me to rebel, and told me that afterward, the country would divide me into half, and their Chen family only wanted the other half..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Chen Mingxi rushed forward and slapped Zheng Wei several times, in revenge for insulting the Queen Mother and sending someone to kill the little eunuch of Jing'an Palace.

She even wanted to punch and kick Zheng Wei, but her long-term upbringing made her unable to do this no matter how angry she was, so she slapped him again, and then knelt in front of Luo Jinhe to argue: "This thief is a gangster!" Nonsense, the Empress Dowager never knew about the rebellion. The palace servants in Jing'an Palace asked them to kill several of them. Just now the thief insulted the Empress Dowager in front of everyone, but now he bites back. His intentions are vicious and his heart is sinister. Look at Your Majesty. Mingjian!"

Empress Dowager Chen couldn't bear to say these words, so she could only do them.

"That's nothing more than a trick." Zheng Wei said, "The Empress Dowager wants this power, but also doesn't want to ruin her reputation. She entrusts me with all the dirty work, and she lays aside and pretends to be innocent."

Chen Mingxi yelled that she was wronged, and kowtowed several times to Luo Jinhe, begging Luo Jinhe not to listen to Zheng Wei's one-sided words.

Before Luo Jinhe could open his mouth, Luo Feng, who was standing next to him, said in a cold voice, "What's the use of arguing about this. Rebellion is a crime against the nine clans. Whether the queen mother knows the inside story or not, she is among the nine clans."

Different dynasties have different definitions of the nine clans. The nine clans in the Yu Dynasty are the fourth clan of the father, the third clan of the mother, and the second clan of the wife.The father-in-law's family and the mother-in-law's family in the wife's family are all within the range of the seat.

Chen Mingxi's relationship is a little far away, and whether she will be implicated will not be known until she checks the genealogy, but the father of Zheng Wei's wife is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Chen, and the Empress Dowager Chen cannot escape no matter what.

Zheng Wei laughed loudly when he heard this: "Old witch, you marry your good niece to me, and let her mess around with others, and let me be ridiculed. Did you think of today!"

The Empress Dowager Chen still insisted on her own identity, and let Chen Mingxi defend herself. After hearing this, she couldn't sit still anymore, and said, "Zheng Wei did not know about the rebellion against the Ai family. The emperor just came to the throne not long ago. The news of someone's rebellion is probably not good for the throne! Besides, how much effort the Chen family has put in for our dynasty, King Pingxiang is still guarding one side for the emperor, I hope the emperor thinks twice."

Luo Fengxin sneered: "Is the Queen Mother going to threaten Your Majesty with King Pingxiang?"

Empress Dowager Chen bowed slightly: "How dare the Ai family."

She said "How dare you", but her tone and demeanor clearly expressed that was what she meant.

King Pingxiang has [-] elite soldiers in his hands, and can reach the capital in one day on a fast horse. This is also the capital of the Chen family's arrogance.Even if Zheng Wei is removed and Luo Fengxin personally leads the troops into battle, the [-] imperial guards will still be able to stand firm, but it will be very difficult to repel King Pingxiang in a short time.

But now the emperor and ministers of the Yu Dynasty are not of one mind.As long as the capital is in trouble, there is King Dingnan in the south and King Zhengxi in the west. They play the banner of King Qin and reinforce the capital in name, but they are actually fishing in troubled waters.In addition, the Sixteen Hus outside the Great Wall in the north, seeing the civil strife in the Yu Dynasty, how could they not take advantage of the opportunity to plunder?

It's hard to say who will be the final winner by then.

Luo Jinhe pondered for a moment, ordered Zheng Wei to be put down first, and then looked at Empress Dowager Chen and asked, "Then according to the Empress Dowager, how should this matter be settled?"

Empress Dowager Chen said: "The Ai family thinks that this matter should not be publicized. The emperor can send someone to interrogate Zheng Wei secretly, and find another reason to kill those who participated in the rebellion one by one, so as not to cause confusion in the hearts of the people."

Luo Jinhe nodded: "The queen mother is right. That's okay, Zheng Wei will be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for interrogation, and another person will be sent to guard the Ningguo Mansion. During this time, anyone who leaves the city must be strictly investigated, lest Zheng Wei's accomplices run away. gone."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Luo Feng and said in his heart: "Le Ping has done a great job in saving Jia today, so I will order you to take Zheng Wei's place as the commander of the imperial army."

"Your Majesty!" The Empress Dowager Chen said anxiously, "For such an important position as the Commander of the Forbidden Army, we should ask the Ministry of Officials to draw up a few candidates and discuss with the ministers before making a decision."

Now most of the court is the Chen family's henchmen, and the result of asking the ministers to discuss must be the result that the Chen family wants.

Luo Jinhe retorted unhurriedly: "I think Leping's strength in the battle with Zheng Wei today is obvious to all. It must be no problem to be the commander of this forbidden army. Besides, she leads troops to rescue him in a crisis, and this loyalty is also indispensable. Doubt. Such a great achievement, if it is not rewarded, I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of the soldiers, and if the queen mother falls into the enemy's hands and is humiliated, I am afraid that no one will be willing to rescue them with such dedication, don't you think?"

Empress Dowager Chen made Luo Jinhe's face pale with anger at these words. This was different from when she faced Zheng Wei. She didn't pay attention to Zheng Wei's idiots at all, but Luo Jin and this person had hidden needles, but they were difficult to deal with. tight.

Of course she knew that Luo Fengxin didn't come to save her, he came to save her brother, and saving her was just a matter of passing, but wouldn't it be a shame to say that?

"Even if you want to reward, you have to follow the rules. Gold, silver and jewelry can be done as the emperor likes, but this official position can't be sloppy..."

The Empress Dowager Chen still wanted to persuade her, but Luo Jinhe interrupted: "If I remember correctly, Zheng Wei was recommended by Grand Master Chen to the late Emperor that day. Although Grand Master Chen has a lot of insights in governing the country, he still has a lot of knowledge in the way of knowing people." It needs to be practiced, what does the Empress Dowager think?"

Luo Jinhe asked "What does the queen mother think?"Empress Dowager Chen turned her gaze slightly, met Luo Fengxin's frosty eyes, and finally swallowed her words.

Now it's someone who is taking the lead, and Luo Fengxin is holding a weapon beside him. Although Luo Fengxin has not expressed any views on the official position, the meaning of coercion is very obvious.What else can she do besides going back to Grand Master Chen for advice?

"Okay." Luo Jinhe saw that the Queen Mother was silent, and waved his sleeves: "Since the Queen Mother also agrees, then this matter is settled like this. The decree, Zheng Wei, as the commander of the imperial army, failed to protect the palace. It is safe to let the assassin infiltrate the palace and disturb the Queen Mother. I am now dismissed from office and will be convicted after being interrogated by the Ministry of Punishment. Princess Leping has made meritorious deeds in catching the assassin. She will promote Zheng Wei to be the commander of the imperial army, rewarding him with a thousand taels and five hundred pieces of silk; The rest of those who participated in the capture of the assassins will also be rewarded for their merits."

Luo Fengxin took the order to thank her, and the hustle and bustle of the night finally came to an end.

The author has something to say: Empress Dowager: Forget about promoting Luo Fengxin, and in the name of catching the assassin who disturbed me. This brother and sister are really hateful!
