Panting, Fan Xiaojiu supported his knees with his hands, and he almost killed him before he reached half of the long steps.Under the torches of the Imperial Forest Army, he shouted to Wei Nan who was two feet away: "Ming Wang... I see that you are seriously injured, if you don't take the antidote in time, I'm afraid you will be paralyzed on the bed for the rest of your life... ...How about this way, the old minister will give you the antidote, and you release the crown prince... The old minister promises not to hurt your life, as long as you let Jiang Ce retreat, you will still be King Ming of the Great Zhou!"

After Wei Nan took the medicine and marched away, his mind cleared up a lot, but his limbs were still weak.He was too lazy to talk nonsense with Fan Xiaojiu, leaned on Dr. Chen's body and kicked Zhou Tang, Zhou Tang responded to Fan Xiaojiu with a terrified scream.

Fan Xiaojiu's face turned dark when he heard Zhou Tang's miserable scream, and he didn't know where Zhou Tang was hurt.In order to save Zhou Tang from suffering, Fan Xiaojiu had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart, and quickly subdued Wei Nan: "The old minister takes back what he said just now, King Ming, don't be impulsive!" Although he spoke soft words, he didn't back down at all, still Every step of the way.

"Nan'er...Father, I beg you, stay my son's life..." Zhou Xian, who hadn't spoken all the way, suddenly spoke on the back of Xuanyi Baiju.

Wei Nan sneered heartlessly and said: "Father said this, didn't you secretly teach me how to hold the prince as a hostage in my ear? Why, are you afraid that I will kill him now?"

Wei Nan always pretended to be cute in front of Zhou Xian. Anyway, Zhou Xian knew everything, so he didn't bother to pretend anymore, and he just sneered.

The temple master and Eunuch Tang glanced at each other, and only then did they know what Zhou Xian had quietly said to Wei Nan behind Wei Nan before Wei Nan hijacked the crown prince... These two people did not expect that Zhou Xian even killed his eldest son in order to let Wei Nan escape. Calculated.

Zhou Xian didn't speak anymore, his eyes were already lax, and the half-day clarity given to him by the setting sun was about to disappear, and he would spend the next days foolishly.

Wei Nan didn't know the effect of Sunset Powder, seeing Zhou Xian's silence, he thought he felt guilty for instigating Wei Nan to hold Zhou Tang hostage.His voice softened a little, and he whispered: "Don't worry, I won't kill him for the time being."

I don't know if Zhou Xian heard it clearly, but he tilted his head and fell asleep on the back of the white chrysanthemum in Xuanyi.

"Your Highness, I heard from the Emperor just now that they gave the Emperor the Sunset Powder... The Sunset Powder will halve the remaining time of the person and keep them awake for half a day. After half a day, the person will be stupid until he dies...see the situation of the Emperor. , I'm afraid it's already past the time of Qingming..." Dr. Chen guessed that Wei Nan didn't know the effect of setting sun, and he was always good at drilling, so he immediately reminded Wei Nan obediently.

Wei Nan froze for a moment, looking at Zhou Xian who fell asleep on the back of Xuanyi Baiju, the look of sorrow flashed across his eyes.Then he turned his head and looked at Zhou Tang coldly, and only said in a low voice: "Keep going up!"

Zhou Tang was scared out of his wits at first, but now he calmed down a lot.When he heard Wei Nan say that he would not kill himself for the time being, he tremblingly said: "Don't be hypocritical, you can do it now if you want to kill!"

Wei Nan didn't want to talk to him at first, but when he saw the unlucky look on the prince's face who was always aloof and didn't know what setbacks were like, he wanted to tease him, so he sneered and said, "I'm a very grudger. I want to pay back to you all the things you and the queen did to me when I was a child, and then I will kill you again! Uh... the prince in fine clothes eats leftovers, sleeps in the woodshed, and is beaten and scolded all day long, It’s very enjoyable just thinking about it!”

"You!" Zhou Tang was furious, forgetting that his life was in someone else's hands at this time, and was about to attack Wei Nan when the dagger in Xuan Yi Bai Ju pressed against his neck and pulled a shallow wound on his neck.He only felt a pain in his neck, and hot blood gushed out from his neck, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to make a sound.

Doctor Chen knew that Wei Nan was deliberately making the prince angry, so he couldn't help laughing, and said to Wei Nan: "His Royal Highness, we need to find a safe place to stop, so I can show you the injury."

These few people didn't know that Wei Nanzhong was using Huagong powder. In order not to distract the five of them, Xuanyi Baiju, and to deal with the Yulin army with all their strength, Wei Nan could only pretend nothing happened: "It's a minor injury, Doctor Chen, don't worry. The Lord and Eunuch Tang are seriously injured and will arrive at the Chongming Palace in a while, so I want you to show them a good look."

The viewer is Luo Qingshan's eyeliner in the palace, and he has no guilt in front of Zhou Xian. He didn't say anything along the way because he lost his tongue; but Eunuch Tang was too ashamed to speak in front of Zhou Xian.

He is Zhou Xian's personal eunuch, Wei Nan caught him because of a little bad conscience, and was forced to work for Wei Nan.After being caught by Fan Xiaojiu, he was severely beaten and even had a broken leg. He hated Wei Nan in his heart, but he didn't dare to attack in front of him.So he kept silent.

Dr. Chen didn't know about these two people, but as long as Wei Nan ordered, he would definitely not refuse, immediately said: "His Royal Highness Ming, don't worry, I have the medicine stone with me."

At this time, it was less than one-third of the distance to Chongming Hall, and Fan Xiaojiu really couldn't keep up. The commander of the Imperial Forest Army always wanted to help him, but he repeatedly refused.Panting like a broken bellows, he waved his hand to stop the Imperial Forest Army from advancing, and shouted to Wei Nan and the others: "Master Ming...you don't go up either... why don't you just show your cards..."

Wei Nan was supported by Dr. Chen all the time. It didn't take him too much effort to climb the fatal long steps. Seeing that the Imperial Forest Army had stopped advancing, he also stopped Xuanyi Baiju: "Uncle Fan Guo wants to talk to me about what conditions ?”

"As long as... as long as you are willing to let the prince go, I will let you go away safely... Do you think it is fair?"

Wei Nan thought he had some new trick, but he didn't expect it to be such a low-level coaxing, so he sneered and said, "Uncle Fan Guo, save your energy to climb the stairs! Don't show this kind of trick to children in front of me." It's embarrassing." After speaking, Xuanyi Baiju continued to go up.

There is a wide stone gate at the end of the long steps. Two huge doorposts block the two sides of the long steps. Only four people can pass through the door at the same time, which is a natural barrier for defense.As long as the killer in black and white chrysanthemum was guarding the door, the large army of the Imperial Forest Army would lose the advantage of having a large number of people, and they could also shield Wei Nan and the others from the attacks of long-range weapons.

Fan Xiaojiu got the news that Zhengyangmen was attacked by a group of mysterious people who were heavily armed, and the palace guards were fighting with them, asking the Imperial Forest Army for support.Fan Xiaojiu immediately asked the commander of the Imperial Forest Army to send 500 people to reinforce.Seeing that Wei Nan and his gang were holding the prince up, he guessed that the mysterious person who attacked Zhengyangmen must have come to rescue Wei Nan, and he also guessed that Wei Nan wanted to use Shimen to hold on.

It was impossible for Fan Xiaojiu to spend so much time with Wei Nan, so he made a decisive decision and ordered the Imperial Forest Army to charge towards Wei Nan and the others.

The officers and soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army were restrained by Fan Xiaojiu for a long time, and they were not allowed to come within two feet of Wei Nan. He had been suppressed for a long time. Hearing the commander's order, the few stunned young people in front immediately rushed up to fight with Xuanyi Baiju.The Royal Forest Army is not like the guards of the imperial palace. These people are all elite warriors selected from a hundred thousand. Fortunately, the long steps are too narrow for them to rush up. These three capable killers in black clothes and white chrysanthemums can handle it without being too embarrassing.

But it will definitely not work if it goes on like this for a long time, Wei Nan backed up the mountain with the support of Doctor Chen and shouted angrily: "Fan Xiaojiu, are you really disregarding the prince's life?"

With the support of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Fan Xiaojiu said out of breath: "The king of Ming rebelled and rebelled, and kidnapped the emperor and the crown prince. Everyone will be punished! Soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, the opportunity to serve the imperial court has come! Grab Zhou Nan and directly seal him!" Wanhuhou!"

Under his encouragement, the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army became even more excited, and rushed forward one by one desperately. There were only three killers in black clothes and white chrysanthemums, and it was even more difficult to deal with them in an instant.

Wei Nan secretly scolded Fan Xiaojiu, an old fox, he was sure that Wei Nan would not kill the prince.The prince is still alive and the Imperial Forest Army is still throwing tricks. If he really kills the prince, this group of people will really rush forward without any scruples.

He immediately asked the killer who held Zhou Tang to release Zhou Tang, and asked Dr. Chen to replace the killer who carried Zhou Xian, while he walked to the side of Zhou Tang, kicked him on the ass, and said angrily: "Hurry up!" Go up, if you take a step slower, I will kick you!"

Now the five people in Xuanyi and Baiju can go into battle, as long as Zhou Tang doesn't hold back, they can quickly retreat up the mountain.

Zhou Tang's martial arts were mediocre, but he was stimulated and frightened again today, and now he was kicked by Wei Nan without making a sound, and limped along with Doctor Chen and the others, clutching his buttocks.

After the killer added two more people, it was not so difficult to deal with it.Although they are strong in martial arts, they can't hold back the number of soldiers in the imperial forest. They pile up in batches like a chariot battle, and even iron fighters can't hold back.

After killing fifty or sixty soldiers of the Royal Forest Army, two killers were injured. Although the injuries were not fatal, their combat effectiveness dropped instantly.

Fortunately, the stone gate is close at hand, Wei Nan pushed Zhou Tang, Doctor Chen carried Zhou Xian on his back, the temple master and Dao Tong supported the broken leg of Eunuch Tang, a group of old, weak, sick and disabled quickly passed through the stone gate, and rushed to the Chongming Hall and go.

As soon as they entered, apart from Zhou Xian who couldn't move, even the lame Eunuch Tang helped to latch all the doors around the main hall and lock them.

The assassins in black clothes and white chrysanthemums guarded the stone gate, leaning on the two huge stone pillars, the five killers forcibly blocked Fan Xiaojiu's thousands of imperial guards from outside the stone gate.

The sound of shouting and killing on the thousand-year-old steps was resounding. The imperial guards in the front used long knives and spears, and those behind used crossbows/arrows. Those in front were injured or died, and they were immediately dragged away by the people behind and replaced with new ones. wheel people.A moment later, blood flowed into a river near the stone gate, and the blood flowed down the quaint long steps...

------------------

Outside the Zhengyang Gate, Nie Rulan brought the fully armed Shenjiying Jijiu and the Xuanyi Baiju killer, but they also encountered strong resistance from the Imperial Forest Army.

The guards at Zhengyang Gate had been quietly replaced by Wei Nan. Nie Rulan led the people into the gate, and immediately caught dozens of palace guards by surprise. They were about to rush over, but unexpectedly, [-] imperial guards came to reinforce them. .

Nie Rulan couldn't get in after attacking for a long time, and instead formed a stalemate with the Imperial Forest Army.Worried that Wei Nan wouldn't be able to hold on for too long, Nie Rulan, who was already impatient, became even more impatient.

He reorganized the troops, let the servants of the Ming Palace and the killer Xuanyi Baiju be the forwards, and the militant fighters cooperated with the feathers and arrows in the back to specialize in one area.He himself swung the long sword that had not been sheathed for many years and took the lead, like a terrifying god of death, he just tore a hole in the encirclement of the Imperial Forest Army and rushed in.He didn't care about the relentless pursuit of the Imperial Forest Army behind him, and led his people towards the Chongming Palace.

Just like that, five black-clothed white chrysanthemum killers blocked thousands of imperial forest soldiers at the long-step stone gate; Nie Rulan led more than 100 people to block and kill the imperial forest army behind;The long steps outside the Chongming Hall were artificially divided into several sections, the scuffles continued and blood flowed continuously.

Even though Nie Rulan's martial arts skills are superb, she cannot defeat thousands of troops.Even when Xie Ce rescued Wei Nan in Dongliang King's Camp back then, he only killed dozens of people before being picked up by Li Laizi.If they were really besieged by thousands of troops, even if the gods descended into the world, it would be difficult for them to escape completely.

There are [-] imperial guards in the palace, plus [-] palace guards, Nie Rulan and Wei Nan are already in an extremely critical situation.

After several people in the Chongming Hall locked all the doors, they all collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.Zhou Xian, who was unconscious, was put on the altar in front of the shrine carelessly by Dr. Chen, like a live animal sacrifice.But at this moment in such a mess, no one can care about the etiquette, righteousness and shame.

Dao Tong supported the temple master to rest on a futon; Zhou Tang sat on a futon, panting heavily, and silently stopped the bleeding from his cut leg; It's like killing a pig.

Wei Nan also sat slumped on a small table, looking at the embarrassed people in front of him and silently calculating: This group of old, weak, sick and disabled has no fighting power at all. If the stone gate is breached, the Chongming Hall will be the last barrier.But this barrier can't stop thousands of troops at all, and it will be a matter of time before the Imperial Forest Army breaks in.If I was alone, I might be able to hold on for a while, but I couldn't protect them at all.

Only then did Wei Nan take out the talisman paper that had been heating up in his bosom for a long time.As early as during the family dinner, he found out that Xie Ce had written him a letter, but at that time the situation was critical and he had no way to check it.Wei Nan knew that after Xie Ce received the news that he was entering the palace, he must be very anxious.

Sure enough, it was almost two hours since Wei Nan entered the palace, and Xie Ce actually sent him five letters in a row, each one eagerly asking about his safety.

Seeing Xie Ce's care and anxiety written on the talisman paper, Wei Nan's heart that had been cold all night was finally warmed by Xie Ce's warmth.He hurriedly found the Four Treasures of the Study in the palace, and replied a letter to Xie Ce with the ever-burning lamp in front of the altar, briefly explaining the situation at this time.

As soon as he burned the talisman paper for replying, he heard an extremely fast scream. Wei Nan immediately went to the window, pushed open the window lattice and saw a signal bomb flying into the sky from the northeast direction, exploding a blood-red cloud in the sky. Signal: The coach is dead, and the Dongyi people are going south!
