To catch a thief, to catch a phoenix first

Chapter 22 Breaking the Encirclement

As soon as the murderous intent arose, Shi Xianyu threw the Nine Heavens Sword backwards without raising her eyelids, and Mulan who was standing behind her quickly caught it and hugged the sword in her arms.

Chang Yizhi only felt a light touch in his hand, before he could react, there was a commotion under the city wall, it turned out that the empress had snatched the stone bow from his hand and taken the arrow from his back.

The off-string golden feather arrow pierced the sky, one person fell in response, and all the rebels rushed forward, the battle situation was very chaotic. .

A hundred steps through the Yang, an arrow through the heart.

Chang Yi's heart was terrified, he thought that the Empress was just a young girl with no strength to restrain a chicken, but unexpectedly she took King Han's life with one arrow.

Now that the matter has come to an end, for them, it is meaningless to kill King Han, his death is only a matter of time; but for Shi Xianyu, it has great significance.

If the king of a country cannot intimidate the Quartet, then he can only let people fish him.Right now is the best time for Liwei.

Sure enough, under the city wall, the panicked crowd all looked up, and from a distance, they could only see the young girl full of heroic spirit, with a slender and exquisite figure, wrapped in black clothes and strong clothes, which was even more chilling, and her awe-inspiring kingly temperament was fully displayed.

In the vast night, a few strands of hair melted with the breeze, although he couldn't see his face clearly, but he could imagine how peerless he was.The 15-year-old empress has such a demeanor, Qingbai finally felt a little relieved.

The rebels were only stunned for a moment, and the guards and Chang's army had already started killing. Soon, blood seeped into the stone bricks, and the sounds of fighting continued one after another.

Qingbai stood behind her and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time."

The sky is gradually dawning, and a ray of morning sun shines through the clouds, which is quite dazzling.Shi Xianyu slowly put away the longbow, handed it back to Chang Yizhi, looked at him, pursed his lips and nodded, appreciating: "This bow is not bad."

The Chang family has been in the general family for generations, but it is a pity that the first emperor neglected his administration and there was little room for him to use his force.Now that he was lucky enough to meet the monarch, his face flushed with excitement, and his trembling voice betrayed the excitement in his heart.

The man's magnetic voice was still very clear in this Shura battlefield: "Thank you for your appreciation, this bow is called Shique Bow, and it will be passed down from generation to generation."

Although he was answering Shi Xianyu's words, his gaze drifted towards Qingbai uncontrollably. She has lost a lot of weight. The little milk baby who followed him back then and said Yizhi's brother has grown into a big girl now. up.

The shadow guard is like the shadow of the master, living in darkness all his life, even if he is lucky enough to live until the day of the master's death, his youth is gone, and he has another injury, he still has to stay in bed for the elderly.

Thinking back when her family had a funeral, she had no one to rely on, and she was divorced not long after, he felt unspeakable pain in his heart, love was hard to give up, and the orders of his parents were hard to break.

The seedlings of love have not yet sprouted, and have been completely killed.Marrying an orphan girl who has no father or brother will not do any good to the Chang clan.So, he hid his hazy feelings in his heart, and it was difficult to speak.

Sensing his scorching gaze, Qingbai turned his head away, lowered his eyes and stopped looking at him, even though there were all kinds of ties between them, it was just a teenager's past.

Whether it is the past or the old love, it should not be remembered or mentioned again.

The two are flirting, how can others not notice it?It's just that the four shadow guards are all appointed by the emperor, and Shi Xianyu really doesn't know their origins, only when they hooked up.

The battle situation is about to come to an end, and it is meaningless to stay here any longer. Instead of seeing how King Han's body was trampled by hundreds and thousands of people, it is better to go back to the palace to rest earlier.

"Mulan, Qingbai, Jixuan, Yunying, and others follow Gu back to the palace. General Xiaochang, I will leave it to you and General Dachang to deal with here."

Speaking of which, Jixuan didn't call Jixuan at all, but called Xuanji. She claimed to be an orphan girl. She grew up in meditation since she was a child.

When she was five years old, her master Taoist Master Xukong felt that Jixuan was easier to read than Xuanji on a whim, and from then on, the audience called her Jixuan.

This anecdote naturally became a joke among the Four Shadow Guards.

When he turned around and was about to leave, he saw a person walking up the stone steps, followed by about 20 people.Looking back, it turned out that a new force had joined the battle.

Regent, Shi Hongyi.

"At the end, I will see Your Highness."

The headed man was straight like a green bamboo, with a face like a crown jade, with a gentle temperament. He was wearing an elegant green jade brocade gown, embroidered with a giant python totem, and looked like a modest gentleman.

The gentleman ignored everyone's etiquette, his face was full of worry, his hands were behind his back, he walked up to Shi Xianyu and stopped, clasped his fists and saluted, bowed his head and bowed his head as a minister, and said: "I am waiting for the rescue to come late, I hope your majesty Resentment."

Late for help?It was really too late, probably because they didn't expect a Chang family army to come out halfway.Shi Xianyu sneered in his heart, still expressionless, raised his eyes to look at him: "Sin? What's wrong with Aiyu?"

Unexpectedly, the Seventh Younger Sister went out for a trip and became so alienated when she came back. Seeing him coming, her eyes were not happy.Things have deviated from the original track, no matter how well-informed the Tianji Mansion is, it is useless.

Shi Hongyi glanced at the Four Shadow Guards, suppressed the strangeness in his heart, and responded in a gentle voice: "Your servants are in important positions, but they failed to kill the traitors in time, and your servants deserve death."

The four of them didn't salute him and turned a blind eye to him, heh, the shadow guard of the Seventh Emperor Sister is not only capable, but also very courageous.

Seventh Sister's injury is well healed, and she doesn't look like she was dying like the previous rumors in the palace.Is it planed by a knife, or is the medicine stone too effective?

"A traitor?"

Rebellious ministers and thieves are probably not as simple as King Han and the Lin family. They use others to be the top birds, and only pretend to be innocent when things fail. Brother Erhuang, the city is not so deep.

What a rebel.

Shi Xianyu chewed these two words repeatedly, looked at him meaningfully, and evoked a sneer: "It's okay, Aiqing has a heart, fortunately, Chang's army rescued her in time, and she was alone and safe, why should Aiqing commit suicide?" responsibility."

Well, it's time to blame yourself. Self-blame can't grasp the variables, and the Chang family's army turned against the general, disrupting the plan?The stage hasn't been set up yet, but some people are entertaining themselves and singing happily.

False appearance.

"The minister hastily dispatched the Qin family army to rescue him. Unexpectedly, it was still a step late. Please punish me, Your Majesty, I am willing to be punished."

The Qin family's army, led by Qin Shi Xiangwen, the Hussar General of the Southern Battalion, had to mention the Qin family's army if they wanted to fight against Annan.Qin Xiangwen is already in his twenties, and he was born as a martial arts champion who is good at eighteen kinds of martial arts.

He is also a general's son, he started to go out with his father when he was 12 years old, this is a good fortune that Chang Yizhi can't envy.After Qin's father died, the first emperor specified that he would take over the post of General Hussars.

I don't know how these two people got mixed up, they smell like each other, and there is no good thing.It's really annoying to have a sweet mouth and a sword in your belly. She can't help but miss Wen Wanmeng a little bit.

That foolish, straight-tempered Jiang Hu girl is free and easy to do whatever she wants.Compared with her master, it is much better.

If she kept calling for punishment, she would not be polite.Shi Xianyu withdrew his smile maliciously, glanced at his phoenix eyes, folded his arms sullenly, and said indifferently: "Since Aiqing asks so, then cut off your regent position."

"Minister, lead the decree. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Even though he was hiding it well, she caught a flash of anger on his face.

No, she is not strong enough to contend with him at the moment, what he needs is a reason to ascend to the throne in a fair and honest manner, if he is forced to lead most of the forces in the court to rebel, it will be a waste of money.

Shi Xianyu pursed his lips and smiled, and helped him straighten up, dimples appeared on his cheeks, and his phoenix eyes turned into crescent moons: "Don't be sad, Aiqing, I can't be alone with you, just a little joke That's all."

Anyway, sooner or later, she will regain her lost ground and kill all the wicked people in the world, and she is not in a hurry.

Hearing this, Shi Hongyi was obviously stunned, and then returned to his loving brother: "Your Majesty is still as naughty as he was when he was a child, and always loves to make jokes."

As he continued speaking, he wanted to reach out his hand to wipe off the dust on her sleeve, but she dodged it.Are you playing the emotional card?Shi Xianyu didn't change his face, and quickly withdrew his hand, not intending to appreciate it.

To be honest, his thoughts are hidden too deep, she doesn't want to know, and she doesn't want to know.For countless days and nights, when she was helpless, it was always the second brother who stretched out a helping hand and pulled her out of the abyss.

Now, he has pushed her into the abyss again, and the only person who can be trusted in the court has abandoned her like a weed, and regards her life as nothing, only as a stepping stone to the throne.

The throne must never be given up to him.

"Thank you Lao Aiqing, who is eager to save you, and has been running all the way for the lonely. I am lonely and tired, so I have to go back to the palace first."

After perfunctory him, Shi Xianyu led the four shadow guards and walked towards the Zichen Hall. His steps were as heavy as his heart, sinking bit by bit, without reservation.

People are not plants, how can they be ruthless.

Yun Ying strode on short legs and barely kept up. Seeing that he had gone too far, she couldn't bear the anger in her heart, so she frowned and said, "Your Highness is really careless this time! How long has it been since the rebels besieged the city, and he just led the Qin family army here !"

Don't talk nonsense, Mulan, as the eldest sister, quickly scolded: "Yun Ying, don't talk nonsense!"

Of course, she and Shi Xianyu were the only ones who knew about the Prince Regent's intention of rebellion, and it was inconvenient for her to tell the three younger sisters without the master's consent, for fear of leaking the news.Especially Yun Ying, who is simply a big mouther.

After being reprimanded by the eldest sister, Yunying became even angrier, stomped her feet, stopped at the side, and refused to leave: "Could it be that what Yunying said is wrong? If there is no Chang family army today, I am afraid that you and I will be separated. Already!"

The empress is not as cold and frosty as she appears on the surface, and the girl Jiji has a sensitive and fragile self-esteem, and she is quite conceited.

Even if it is the truth, it shouldn't be said like this, it will hurt her heart.

Jixuan couldn't stand it anymore, walked to Yunying's side, raised her hand and gave her a shudder: "If you talk nonsense again, sister Jixuan will knock your little head off."

With beautiful eyes looking forward, she was dressed in white clothes like a fairy, she was so dazed, she let her beat her head in a daze.Jixuan deliberately lightened her strength, but it seemed as if she hit her heart.

That...does Taoist nuns lack Taoist companions?She recommended herself!
