If Ye Gucheng participated in Nan Wang's conspiracy plan, then at this time, he would definitely assassinate the emperor himself when everyone's attention was distracted by the double on the roof of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

A very bad premonition had faintly formed in Lu Xiaofeng's heart.

He used his fastest lightness kung fu and followed Wei Ziyun's guidance to the South Study Room, hoping to stop what was about to happen in time.

It's a pity that Lu Xiaofeng was still a step behind.

When he eagerly pushed open the door of the south study, what he saw was the emperor who was slowly falling backwards with his eyes wide open, and Ye Gucheng who was sheathing his sword.

Such an exquisite swordsmanship of Flying Immortal Beyond Heaven, even Lu Xiaofeng and even Ximen Chuuxue couldn't guarantee that he could catch it, let alone His Majesty the Emperor who didn't understand martial arts at all.

Without checking again, Lu Xiaofeng can conclude that under Ye Gucheng's personal action, the emperor must be dead and cannot die anymore.

This is really, bad.

Worse things are yet to come.

When Lu Xiaofeng pushed the door and entered, the scene of Ye Gucheng holding the sword and killing the king caused too much impact. Lu Xiaofeng didn't pay attention to other things for a while. Now that he came back to his senses, he realized that this huge room In the south study room, there was already a dead person lying on the ground.

A Nanwang, a Nanwang heir wearing a dragon robe, an old eunuch, and four black-clothed men who seem to be secret guards...

It seemed that they all died under Ye Gucheng's sword.

Now Lu Xiaofeng's eyes on Ye Gucheng changed again.

He originally thought that it was Nan Wang who was planning to rebel, and Ye Gucheng participated in it for some reason, but now it seems that the leader of all this is clearly Ye Gucheng.

It is true that Nan Wang and his son want to rebel. They wanted to use Ye Gucheng to distract attention, but they didn't think they were the pawns in Ye Gucheng's hands.

With the scheming of this father and son, how can it be compared with Ye Gucheng? Maybe they are still confused until their death.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Tonight is the day of the decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng. Ye Gucheng used a double to attract everyone on the roof of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and then went to the South Study Room to assassinate the emperor. But what about Ximen Chuuxue?Where is Ximen Chuuxue?

Ximen Chuuxue holds a lot of weight in Lu Xiaofeng's heart, and his safety is naturally Lu Xiaofeng's utmost concern.

Regardless of other considerations, Lu Xiaofeng asked Ye Gucheng about the truth of this decisive battle at the Forbidden Summit and Ximen Chuuxue's current situation with a face full of eagerness.

Ye Gucheng is in a good mood now.

Although nothing can be seen from that cold and indifferent face without any expression, Ye Gucheng is really in a good mood.

The people in the way have been dealt with, and the most critical step in this plan has also been completed smoothly, that is to say, the great cause of restoring the country passed down from generation to generation by the Ye family is about to be realized.

Under such circumstances, Ye Gucheng was willing to answer Lu Xiaofeng's questions: "My decisive battle with the owner of Ximen has long since ended."

"Huh?" Lu Xiaofeng couldn't understand this kind of answer, "You guys, when..." Obviously he arrived a long time ago and has been guarding the open space in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but why didn't he even see anyone?

unless……

Sure enough, Ye Gucheng's next words confirmed Lu Xiaofeng's conjecture.

It turned out that his decisive battle with Ximen Chuuxue was not at the top of the Forbidden City, nor tonight, but on Zijin Mountain a month ago.

Only Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng knew about this matter. If Ye Gucheng hadn't said it himself, no one else would have imagined it anyway.

Ye Gucheng said indifferently: "The battle between me and the owner of Ximen, is it anyone who can judge?" Even if something that could attract people's attention was needed, Ye Gucheng didn't plan to fight in person, let alone expect him to The long-awaited decisive battle turned into a monkey show.

It is already his limit to spread some rumors.

Lu Xiaofeng could also understand this.

Thinking of the crowds of people he saw in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony just now, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but feel sad. He really couldn't imagine how Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue, two iceberg swordsmen, were surrounded by a group of people watching and competing with each other. Competing quietly sounds more in line with their temperament.

It's just that Ye Gucheng is still standing here, so Ximen...

Seemingly understanding what Lu Xiaofeng wanted to express, Ye Gucheng took a look at him and continued, "I and Master Ximen are bosom friends, why should we fight to the death?"

That is to say, the two of them are just ordinary competitions, which do not involve their lives. But even so, both of them feel that they have gained a lot of new insights in the way of swordsmanship. Ximen Chuuxue, who is obsessed with swords, returned to Wanmei The villa went to retreat and study, and didn't hear any rumors from outside.

Of course, even if he knew, according to Ximen Fuxue's personality, he wouldn't care about such things in the slightest.

What he pursues is the ultimate in swordsmanship, and Ye Gucheng is his confidant in kendo. As for whether his confidant wants to assassinate the emperor or seek to usurp the throne, as long as it doesn't affect the sword competition, Ximen Chuuxue doesn't care.

Lu Xiaofeng, who had put down a big rock in his heart, heaved a sigh of relief, and when his eyes swept across the corpses on the ground again, his eyes were full of helplessness.

He knows that Ye Gucheng's goal has been achieved at this moment, but there is one more thing, if he doesn't figure it out, he will not be reconciled no matter what.

"City Master Ye." Lu Xiaofeng's voice was as serious as his expression, "Why on earth would you do such a thing?"

He is not very familiar with Ye Gucheng, but he also knows that people are like swords, and Ye Gucheng's sword is like a flying fairy, and so are people. Earlier when he thought that Ye Gucheng had something to do with Nanwang, Lu Xiaofeng was already very puzzled, as for now , he couldn't understand Ye Gucheng's thoughts even more.

The power of the king's land is indeed wonderful, but why does a person like Ye Gucheng bother to pursue such a thing?

"You don't understand this kind of thing." Ye Gucheng looked at the sword in his hand, a gleam of light flashed in his star-like eyes, "I am originally a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and the restoration of the country is my Ye family's ancestor's motto. There is no mistake, and there is no retreat, and this success is worthy of my many years of planning."

"City Master Ye, you..." Hearing such a secret thing suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng was a little stunned for a moment.

Ye Gucheng didn't say anything, this Lu Xiaofeng is a friend of his lover, and also a friend of his confidant Ximen Chuuxue, even Ye Gucheng himself has a good sense of Lu Xiaofeng, if it is not necessary, he will not hurt Lu Xiaofeng Assassin, but if Lu Xiaofeng doesn't know what to do, then he can only...

Lu Xiaofeng is a smart person, but now he can only smile wryly.

Now, what other options does he have?

The palace has already been controlled by Ye Gucheng's people. Without Ye Gucheng's permission, even a fly cannot fly out. He is unwilling, so what else can he do?

He was indeed one step late, but even if he rushed to the South Study Room before the emperor died, would he really be able to save the emperor's life?

Obviously everything happened before his eyes, but he was powerless to stop it.

Letting out a deep breath, Lu Xiaofeng knew that this was the end of the matter.

If he still insists on participating in the future, Ye Gucheng may really not be merciful.

Death is not a big deal, but such a meaningless death is really not worth it, in case it hurts other people...

Things have come to this point, if they go deeper, they will only become more and more chaotic, Lu Xiaofeng really dare not take such a risk.

He glanced at Ye Gucheng, turned around and left with the dark guards of Baiyun City who had been waiting at the side.

No one outside the palace knew about the drastic changes that took place in the palace, and Huamanlou and Su Mier, who spent a wonderful Mid-Autumn Festival at home, naturally had no way of knowing.

After all, except for Lu Xiaofeng, those martial arts people who entered the palace last night to watch the Forbidden Peak were all receiving the cordial greetings from the hidden guards of Baiyun City.

Originally, Hua Manlou and Su Mier thought that they would know the result of the decisive battle the next morning, but they didn't expect that there was no news outside, as if the decisive battle that shocked the entire Jianghu never existed.

"Huamanlou, why do I feel a little strange?" Su Mier scratched his hair, with a confused look on his face.

According to his past experience, Lu Xiaofeng should have come over long ago to explain the situation of last night's decisive battle in detail, let alone Lu Xiaofeng is missing now, and there is no news at all.

Hua ManLou also felt that something was wrong.

Compared with Su Mier's ignorance, he thought a little deeper.

The decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng last night was followed by people all over the world. After such a long time, it is impossible that there will be no news at all.

Unless someone can suppress things.

And there are very few people who can do this.

The only thing that is certain is that something must have happened in the palace last night, and it was an unimaginable event.

For example, Nan Wang's conspiracy.

The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't feel at ease. Huamanlou simply asked people to go out to inquire, to see if there was any definite news, and the Hua family's contacts were not to be underestimated. Soon, some news about the situation in the palace would be sent. In the hands of Hua Manlou.

"This is..." Holding the stack of papers that recorded the information, Hua Manlou had a rare expression of shock on his face, "I didn't expect it to be like this."

Like Lu Xiaofeng, he thought that Ye Gucheng was only involved in Nanwang's conspiracy, but he never expected that Ye Gucheng actually led the whole thing.

Even those who entered the palace last night never appeared outside again, it seems that they were probably detained in the palace.

In other words, Lu Xiaofeng is also one of them.

Lu Xiaofeng is a good friend of Huamanlou, if something happens to him, Huamanlou can't ignore it, but the problem is that the current situation makes Huamanlou feel extremely difficult.

Su Mier didn't want to see Hua Manlou frowning, and was a little worried for Lu Xiaofeng. He thought about it and said to Hua Manlou, "How about I go to the palace to see?"

"No!" Hua Manlou categorically rejected Su Mier's absurd suggestion, "Don't mess around, can you go to the palace as you please? What if something happens?"

"I can disperse the dark dust." Su Mier weakly argued.

"That's not okay, I will find a way." Although Hua Manlou was worried about Lu Xiaofeng's situation at this time, he would not allow Su Mier to do such a dangerous thing, "Lu Xiaofeng, he..."

As soon as Huamanlou mentioned Lu Xiaofeng's name, he heard a voice asking: "What's wrong with me?" At the same time, Lu Xiaofeng turned in from the window as usual.

"It doesn't look like anything happened to you, that's good." With a glance over, Hua Manlou found that although Lu Xiaofeng's face was a little darker, there was nothing wrong with it, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay." Lu Xiaofeng sat down on the chair with a sullen face, and drank three cups of tea in a row before he calmed down a little.

After worrying all night, Lu Xiaofeng was exhausted physically and mentally, but compared to those who have not been released yet, he is already considered good

"What exactly happened last night?" Although he already understood a little bit, what Lu Xiaofeng said was obviously more detailed.

"Last night..."

Lu Xiaofeng let out a long sigh, and began to tell about what happened last night. After hearing the full version of the rebellion story, both Huamanlou and Su Mier expressed surprise to varying degrees.

"I see." Hua Manlou could not help but sigh.

Su Mier didn't have much sense of belonging to this era. All he cared about was Huamanlou. Whoever became the emperor made no difference to him.

But if the emperor still has the slightest relationship with him, the feeling will be subtle.

"The little general's lover is going to be the emperor." Seeing Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou nodding heavily, Su Mier stroked his chin and continued, "Then when the little general comes back, will he become a queen?"

Hua Manlou: "..."

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

After a brief silence, Lu Xiaofeng's unusually cheerful laughter came from the room, mixed with Hua Manlou's chuckle and Su Mier's questioning question.

It seems to be asking where I am wrong.
