willing to fight

Tonight, the emperor of the Xhosa Kingdom was in a rare good mood. He didn't manage politics in the study, and he didn't go to the harem early. Instead, he had people arrange various fruits and fine wines in the garden.

But what is puzzling is that there is no full moon tonight, and the dark clouds are covering half of the night sky. Not to mention, there is no beautiful scenery to enjoy. The emperor neither invited his favorite concubine nor his favorite little prince. Instead, he only invited one The guest is the eldest prince Wu Zhuo who has always been at odds with the emperor.

"Wu Zhuo, my father has been busy with government affairs in recent years, and I don't care enough about you. How are you riding and shooting recently?"

"Last time about the beauty from the Central Plains, my father also felt sorry for you, but you know that Lanxi is young and self-willed, and he has always been unwilling to get married, so this time he fulfilled his wish, so as not to marry him. Will the princess cause trouble later? You won't blame your father, will you?"

"These fruits are gifts from the Central Plains. They are very rare. Try them and see what you think is good. Bring some back with you..."

The emperor changed into loose clothes tonight, dressed casually, he really looks like a loving father, but...

"Father, look at what you said, she is just a little beauty in the Central Plains, not to mention that since it is dedicated to you, father, it is natural for you to dispose of it as you like, and Lanxi is my most beloved brother. I would also give up my love. Besides, the entire Xhosa country belongs to you, and we are all your people, let alone a little beauty, which is originally your thing. How can my son-in-law make unreasonable troubles and complain? What about riding and archery, I have been practicing, as a royal family, I should lead by example, please rest assured father."

Wu Zhuo's face was respectful, and his cautious words were tight in every way.It's just that under the face of filial piety and admiration, the heart is getting more and more restless-cut!Now that I think about it, they are father and son?Are father and son like this?

When the old guy was with that brat Suo Lanxi, he never said so many polite words, and he didn't need to be so grandiose!When the two of them are together, they are often alone, and that is the love between their knees, how is it like themselves?The words are so nice, and there are so many guards around who are fully armed, who are they guarding against?

Hmph, that's what I said... If there weren't so many masters here, maybe he really "accidentally" did something shocking to the world, such as Shi's father usurping the throne!

But now Wu Zhuo is worried about the matter. If he had known what kind of ghost moon the old man would invite him to tonight, he should have made a better plan, but the herald came too suddenly and gave the order to kill Suo Lanxi It has been conveyed and cannot be taken back... Now he can only pray that it will go smoothly, otherwise if something happens and he can't take command, who will his subordinates ask for instructions?

But he was in a hurry, the emperor was not in a hurry, and Wu Zhuo couldn't show that he was in a hurry to go back, so he could only stare at the dark clouds in the sky, wasting his time.

"Wu Zhuo, the weather is not very good today, but my father actually picked this kind of weather on purpose, because there are good things to show, and we father and son haven't played together for a long time."

The emperor suddenly winked, had a mischievous, childish expression, as for whether this expression was true or false in front of Wu Zhuo, I am afraid that only he himself knew, summoned the guards who had been prepared for a long time, and made a bunch of weird little tubes and Things like paper lanterns were staggered on the ground.

"Father, this is..."

Wu Zhuo looked at the bow and arrow stuffed into his hand by the guards, confused, to be honest... I really want to shoot an arrow through the old guy's head!But he didn't dare, the scheming king was surrounded by guards, if he did it, he would be taken down in one fell swoop, and the throne would directly become Suo Lanxi's.

"Oh, this one, it's the Kongming Lantern. When the light comes up, we will draw our bows to see who shoots more! Of course, to make it more difficult, I asked the guards to set off fireworks below... These fireworks are also gifts from the Central Plains. It will be especially beautiful on such a dark night!"

The way the emperor smiled seemed to be purely playful, as if he couldn't see the burning anxiety in Wu Zhuo's heart at all.

There's only so much he can do, and it's all based on Yaoxuan's bad idea. He can understand that it can restrain Wu Zhuozhi's actions tonight, but his intuition tells him that it may be more than that simple, that one is like a loach. The cunning man must have other intentions... It's just that Yaoxuan not only didn't explain, but even proposed that kind of condition to him!

This emperor, who has always been aloof, is also forced to bow his head for the first time in his life... Sigh, forget it, as long as Lan Xi is happy, it will be better to get over this knot and end up in an untimely death, right?

……

Under the same dark night, compared with the garden where at least father and son seemed to be in harmony, the tragedy of the Little Prince's Mansion was beyond words to describe, and it had almost turned into a purgatory in a sea of ​​blood.

Suo Lanxi doesn't know martial arts at all, and doesn't like martial arts at all. It is impossible to raise any warriors. On weekdays, the little prince's mansion has almost no combat power except for the most basic guards. There are a lot of handymen singing and dancing, they only serve as swordsmen, what enemies can they resist?In a blink of an eye, blood flowed like a river.

Yaoxuan certainly didn't want too many innocent casualties, but if these people were withdrawn in advance, it would undoubtedly be tantamount to telling the eldest prince that they were prepared and planned to use their tricks...he couldn't.

Those who achieve great things, which one is not standing on the pinnacle made of flesh and blood?Tonight, aside from the fact that he will never leave Lan Xi behind, Lan Xi is the only hope for the Xhosa Kingdom. According to the emperor, if Wu Zhuo gets the throne, he will definitely start a war...For this, these people His death is also within the scope of the price, and it is inevitable.

It's just such a thing, how could Yaoxuan tell Suo Lanxi and Su Xiaobai in advance?He has seen too many bloody storms in the Jianghu, what absurd and cruel scene has he not seen?But how could such two kind little things be accepted!

"Su Xiaobai, come back to me! Your task is to hide behind me and protect Lanxi! Don't meddle in other people's lives and lives now! Forgot what I said? You are not a Bodhisattva, you save me!" Not everyone!"

Yaoxuan's forehead was already sweating, while resisting the enemy, he slashed and killed one, and noticed from the corner of his eye that Su Xiaobai wanted to rescue a dancer who fell not far away from them, he couldn't help jumping up and shouting angrily.

Such an order to see death without help was undoubtedly cruel to the bodhisattva-hearted Su Xiaobai, and Su Lanxi behind him was already frightened into a fool... However, their situation was even more cruel, in order not to leave evidence , the goal of this group of people is not only to kill Suo Lanxi, but it is obviously the Tufu, and they will not leave a single one alive!

The killers who entered the Little Prince's Mansion from all directions entered the Little Prince's Mansion as if walking on the ground with such a low defense force, and the enemies on Yaoxuan's side gathered more and more. A group of killers were blocked in the small courtyard at the entrance of Suo Lanxi's bedroom, and the swords were easy to deal with, but the weapons used by these masters were all kinds of strange, because Yaoxuan was guarding the entrance alone, so he couldn't touch Suo Lanxi at all. So these people began to think of other ways, copper hammers and sharp axes began to greet the wall, if Yaoxuan tried to stop them, he had to leave the gate, so he let Su Xiaobai and Suo Lanxi behind him out!This is the so-called "two fists are difficult for the fourth hand"!

After a while, a big hole was smashed into the wall of the bedroom. Yaoxuan had no choice but to give up his original advantage and take Su Xiaobai and Suo Lanxi to the lawn outside!

What's worse, no matter how powerful Yaoxuan is, he is not an impenetrable wall, at least he does not have such a large area!There are quite a few of these guys with hidden weapons, and it is impossible to hit him, but the yard is large and the range is wide, and it is too difficult for hidden weapons thrown from all directions to completely miss Su Lanxi and Su Xiaobai!What's more, the grass around the dart that fell on the grass suddenly turned black. It was obviously very poisonous, and it was sure to die if it touched it!

Suo Lanxi doesn't know martial arts at all, it's the first time in his life that he saw so many dead people, his legs trembled and he could hardly stand up, it was very normal... and Su Xiaobai held Suo Lanxi tightly with one hand, although He didn't know what was going on in the situation before him, Yaoxuan owed him an explanation!But now it is obviously life-saving!In the chaos, he watched helplessly as the dancer died not far from his feet, but he was helpless, because Yaoxuan was in front of him waving a sharp soft sword to block him, but if he left behind Yaoxuan, the sky was like rain Hidden weapon, he can't go anywhere at all!

With trembling hands, Su Xiaobai tightly grasped a thin and thin short sword that he picked up from the ground. The owner of this sword is obviously an enemy. The enemy who has been killed by Yaoxuan, God knows who is among the large corpses that don't distinguish between the enemy and us. , that is not important anymore, because...

"what--"

Suo Lanxi screamed in panic, a killer who had been hacked half to death by Yaoxuan crawled and grabbed his trousers, and took out a dagger with a black blade that was obviously poisoned... At this moment, Yaoxuan, At the same time, he was blocked by seven or eight enemies holding chain weapons, and he couldn't turn around when he was close at hand!

Su Xiaobai gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and aimed his dagger at the back of the guy's heart... The stinky blood splashed on his white brocade robe!

With a stab of a sword, he himself seemed stupid... This is the first time he has killed people... But if he hadn't stabbed just now, the person who died of poisoning would be Suo Lanxi!

"Su Xiaobai, take Lanxi and run to the Imperial Garden, I'll hold them back! Remember, you will send Lanxi there if you die!"

Yaoxuan suddenly made a sound, and the order was extremely decisive... If Ye Qianming heard this order, and heard that he asked Su Xiaobai to protect Lan Xi with all his might, he would definitely kill him, but now... if the three of them can only To live alone, this man realized so clearly at this moment that this person must be Lan Xi!

Because he likes this little thing, he wants this little thing to live!

Prince Wu Zhuo actually raised such a team of professional assassins, the strength of which was beyond his expectation, not to mention the hidden weapons all over the sky and the chain team specially blocking his actions are simply despicable... Fighting against such a team, Yaoxuan knew that he had the most It's only [-]% sure, and this is on the premise that there is no need to protect the two of them!In this way, the blockade strategy formulated by the quasi-hunters against him can't protect Xiaobai and Lanxi at all, and all the weapons are painted with poison...

The man subconsciously glanced at his shoulder...a very small wound, just scratched, but black blood has gradually seeped from the torn clothes!
