Cang Ri Qing Lan

Chapter 70: Fall of Destiny

The spring breeze is soft and the sun is shining. This is a good weather.

It's a pity that in the courtyard of the deep house, there is no singing of birds and insects, and there is no buzzing of people. It is clear that the sky is bright and bright, but it is so quiet that it seems that all living things have disappeared.

But Fang Honggeng knew that there were people everywhere in the house, watching their every move all the time.

Xing Ye knew this, Cang Lan knew it, and Haoxuan Kang Huang knew it better.He has passed this kind of life for nearly a year, and he believes that what Fang Honggeng said just now has reached Ge Hong's ears. Thinking of this, he doesn't want to stay for a moment.But as soon as he left the hall, Haoxuan Kanghuang felt anxious again, how could he get out of this tightly guarded house with only a few lonely people?

Looking at the long corridor in front of him, he suddenly felt that it looked like the corridor of a tomb, and his feet felt weak and he couldn't move forward.

Everything was silent, only the sound of hurried footsteps.

Haoxuan Kang Huang walked in front with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Cang Lan looked at the so-called Son of Heaven coldly, and didn't even bother to reach out to help.

Originally, he expected him to ask for help in order to provoke disputes and let himself and Ge Hong restrain each other, but now it seems that even if the emperor has this heart, he may not be that courageous.Such a panic-stricken person is too boring to be an opponent, and it would be perfect to be a puppet.

Cang Lan still couldn't figure out why the emperor brother would take him for granted as one of his own. Could it be that being betrayed by his son wasn't enough?

Ge Hong's old fox concealed the existence of the emperor, made an alliance with Suoxi, and other actions, maybe it was because Haoxuan Kanghuang wanted to rely on himself, his brother.Then let them meet now, it should be the moment when I take the emperor away...

Just as Cang Lan thought about this, a burst of chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded, coming towards this side quickly.As the footsteps approached, Cang Lan frowned imperceptibly, only to see Hao Xuan Kang Huang's chest rising and falling sharply, and he could almost hear his disordered breathing.

"Haoxuan Canglan committed a rebellion and hijacked the emperor! Take down this rebellious traitor immediately!"

With a shout, Haoxuan Kanghuang was shocked, although he was called Haoxuan Canglan, he broke out in a cold sweat, and he was back when Haoxuan Guang'an led troops into the palace - all his neighbors were killed The slaughter was clean, he almost thought it would be his turn in the end...

Haoxuan Kang Huang couldn't help but backed up and bumped directly into Cang Lan.

"Your Majesty," calmly straightening the emperor, Cang Lan motioned for Xing Ye to be in front, and quickened her pace towards the nearest courtyard wall, "Please follow me."

"Haoxuan Canglan, why don't you catch him without a fight?!"

Before a few people took a few steps, Ge Hong had appeared at the end of the corridor, and the soldiers on the left and right rushed in. All of a sudden, there were layers of warriors holding halberds and spears. A group of archers stood behind the ridge, ready to shoot, and the entire courtyard was tightly surrounded.

"Ge Hong! In front of the emperor, how dare you cover up the sky with one hand and call a deer a horse?!"

Seeing this battle formation, Fang Honggeng felt that he had no reason to get out, so he could only scream angrily.After getting this reminder, Haoxuan Kanghuang also shouted harshly,

"...Bold rebel...haven't backed down with me yet...!"

The words fell silent, and suddenly felt that Ge Hong's voice on the opposite side was different, and turned his head following the other's gaze, only to see Xing Ye stepping on the wall.The warriors with their bows all around hadn't reacted yet, they had turned over and crossed the wall of more than two feet, they were startled, and they were about to ask Cang Lan, when Ge Hong said in a loud voice,

"Don't worry about that little thief! Get rid of Haoxuan Canglan first!"

Ge Hongxin decided that Xingye was going to ask for reinforcements, so he would not delay any longer, he must make a quick decision.

The surrounding warriors received this order and were about to swarm up, when they suddenly heard several loud noises not far away, like thunder on the ground, and the ground trembled accordingly!

This group of soldiers, together with Ge Hong, were shocked by the sudden noise, stopped their movements and looked around in panic, almost thinking that it was a divine punishment.But Cang Lan said "Excuse me", pulling Haoxuan Kang Huang forward.Everyone was still in shock, and there was another bang, and the strong air blast exploded with the walls splashing in all directions, until the gravel on the corrugated walls fluttered down!

Amidst the dust and smoke, the warriors in front of them were blown upside down and fell to the ground. The walls of the house collapsed one after another, and the gaps led to the street outside.

"... Skyfire Thunder! It's Skyfire Thunder!"

"Your Majesty!! Is Your Majesty safe?!"

"Don't keep alive! Kill Haoxuan Canglan!"

There was a sudden chaos in the house, and the shouts and shouts could not be heard clearly for a while.When the scene became quieter, there was the faint sound of a large group of people approaching.

"Kill Haoxuan Canglan! Bring the emperor back!"

The situation changed drastically in an instant, Ge Hong didn't care about Zhou Mu's identity anymore, he kept waving his hands and feet and ordered the chaotic soldiers to surround him, he was desperate, he had to kill Haoxuan Canglan before the rescue came!

"Take the emperor out through the gap."

Haoxuan Kanghuang had already been lifted up and handed over to the limping Fang Honggeng, Cang Lan and Xing Ye followed behind the emperor who was stumbling and running.The agreed reinforcements will enter through the gap, as long as they can take Haoxuan Kanghuang away, they will be sure of victory!

Cang Lan held the sword in her hand, and focused all her attention on the enemy who rushed forward, and knocked down several people one after another. Suddenly, a cold light flashed across, Cang Lan felt strange, and there was an exclamation with a changed tone behind her— —

"emperor……!"

Turning around suddenly, I saw an arrow piercing through Haoxuan Kanghuang's back, barely reaching the arrow feathers. Fang Honggeng's terrified call hadn't finished yet, and several more arrows were shot at the emperor!

The accident happened so abruptly that there was no sound in the house for a moment, and then Ge Hong shouted like crazy,

"...Archers! Archers volley!!! Killed Haoxuan Canglan!!" It was because he was afraid of the mouse that he didn't order to release the arrows, but it was still a failure!Now he is at a dead end, and he can only keep dying!

All the people trembled from the hysterical voice, and in an instant, arrows rained down from all directions!

At the moment when Haoxuan Kanghuang was hit by an arrow, Cang Lan knew something was wrong, and there was no way to avoid it. Xing Ye had already dodged and stood in front of him, only to hear a few metallic clangs, and the flying arrows rushed towards him one after another. landing.

At this moment, a majestic call came from afar,

"The whole army stepped forward! Protect His Royal Highness Prince Yi! Kill Ge Bandit!"

Shen Haozhe finally arrived, and a group of cavalry rushed in from the collapsed wall on the other side!

Seeing this, Ge Hong opened his eyes and bared his eyes, grabbed the spears of the left and right warriors and threw them over, wishing he could pierce the little guard in front together with Haoxuan Canglan!

The gun body was heavy, the blow was not fast, and it was easy to dodge, but Xing Ye couldn't dodge, as Cang Lan was behind him.With a flick of the sword, the spear flew out obliquely - Xing Ye's long sword was also out of his hand!

He shouldn't have let go!

Never thought that Xing Ye would be shot down with the long sword, Cang Lan was taken aback, and then said in a low voice:

"Get out of the way!"

An arrow instantly pierced Xing Ye's leg.The rain of arrows was denser, not only did he not dodge, but he opened his arms to protect Cang Lan.

The sound of the flying arrows piercing the flesh was so clear that Cang Lan's pupils shrank, he didn't care to think about it, hugged Xing Ye by the waist, and rolled down on the spot.

The continuous feather arrows whizzed past Cang Lan's cheeks, and a sudden pain in his shoulder almost made him let go. When there was no time to go, a black figure suddenly passed him to block in front of him, and the sound of horseshoes followed like a tide. They rushed past, and the screams suddenly rose!

Cang Lan didn't watch the battle, the two teams formed a group of troops, a few feathered arrows came into view shockingly, the sticky blood kept oozing from the black clothes and then dripped down his arms, making him hold Xing Ye's His hands trembled unconsciously.

"...The subordinate guards are weak..."

The eyes as dark as the night fell on Cang Lan's face, Xing Ye struggled twice, and forced himself to kneel down,

"...Your Highness..."

A mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth following his words, and his body fell down again.

"My lord!"

Shen Haozhe got off his horse, quickly inspected the blobs of red on Cang Lan's clothes, and frowned unknowingly when he looked at the fainted Xing Ye. Judging from the various injuries he had seen on the battlefield, Xing Ye was probably more ominous.

"Go and call the doctor."

Cang Lan tore open Xing Ye's clothes non-stop, quickly wrapped the wound with cloth strips, without looking back, for some reason, that calm tone made Shen Haozhe feel like the calm before the storm.

The doctor came very quickly, and arrived while the fighting on the other side was still going on.But when he wanted to inspect the wound on Cang Lan's shoulder that was pierced by the arrow, he was almost unafraid by his icicle-like gaze, and only then did he realize that it was Xing Ye who was lying on the side to be treated.A few more military doctors arrived, but no one dared to touch Cang Lan, and could only be busy around Xing Ye and Haoxuan Kanghuang who hadn't died yet.The dignitaries of various states who arrived later heard the sound of fighting that was being forced into the depths of the house that was getting weaker and weaker, and took a peek at Cang Lan's expression, even daring not to take a breath.

"My lord." Standing up from the emperor, Shen Haozhe hesitated for a moment, but still walked in front of Cang Lan, "The emperor is calling you..."

Cang Lan's eyelids moved, and finally turned her gaze to the direction where the emperor was lying.Fang Honggeng was prostrate and crying bitterly. He was upset for a while, but he still walked over and knelt down beside Haoxuan Kanghuang.

"...you'll be safe...well..."

Haoxuan Kanghuang was already furious, seeing Cang Lan appear, there was an abnormal blush on his face, and his voice was a little louder,

"Since the palace change...I feel that today will come...I have drafted an edict and handed it over to Honggeng...Honggeng is loyal...You can reuse..."

Speaking of this, his voice gradually quieted down again, accompanied by rapid panting, which was barely audible,

"The empress...although she is not a lady...I also owe her...not..."

Before the last sentence was finished, the emperor opened his mouth, and the short and rapid breathing was dragged on for a beat, and finally stopped abruptly, and there was no more sound.

There was a dead silence in the field, and the battle in the courtyard had ended at some point, only the smell of rust accompanied Fang Honggeng's mourning and crying intermittently.After a while, the dignitaries of the various states finally came to their senses and fell to the ground crying.

Emperor Haoxuan Kanghuang ended his life in this true or false wailing. As the emperor of a powerful dynasty, his unremarkable past will be recorded in the annals of history, but no one knows. People will despise his weakness or sigh his kindness.

However, at this moment, the people present did not have the time to worry about these things. Compared with Haoxuan Kanghuang's death, they were more concerned about the content of the imperial edict.So when Fang Honggeng read out the last edict, when all the officials knelt on the ground to listen to the edict, their kneeling movements were a little hasty.

Cang Lan didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, even the emperor's edict was passed on to him, and everyone shouted long live, but he didn't answer.

All the people were surprised by the emperor's last order, but they felt that it should be so. Naturally, they would not forget to see if the new emperor had any signs of settling old accounts. At this time, his gloomy silence undoubtedly made everyone tremble with fear.

Only Shen Haozhe vaguely understood the reason, and from time to time glanced at the busy doctors around Xing Ye, his expression became more solemn.

That is to say, the position of emperor cannot make Cang Lan look pale. If Xing Ye really dies, the worries of the dignitaries in various states may become a reality.It wasn't until Yan Yan, who went separately to 'invite' Zezhou Huanxin, appeared, that he was slightly relieved. Although the frost-like coldness was still on his face, at least the arrow wound was dealt with.

Later, Queen Ye cried beside Haoxuan Kanghuang's corpse, Shen Haozhe led Changzhou soldiers to Ningxi Mansion and suppressed Ge Hong's remaining party one by one.

In the fourth year of Huang'an in the Dazheng calendar, Emperor Haoxuan Kanghuang of Daguo passed away, and he was posthumously named Emperor Xiaoai.

Since then, Haoxuan Canglan, the prince of Junyi, has ascended to the throne of God. Although the princes of the world have expected this day, they still marvel at his position and call it the destiny.
