I pretend to be affectionate in front of my foe

Even though Yan Yun seemed to be helping them, at such a critical moment of life and death, they dare not easily trust Yan Yun and the reinforcements he brought.

The leader of the Xiaoyao Army tentatively walked to the carriage that Xiao Yiran was riding in, trying to sneak in to see if Xiao Yiran was safe.He approached cautiously, for fear of disturbing the reinforcements brought by Yan Yun.

Unexpectedly, the reinforcements guarding the carriage had seen him a long time ago, not only did not stop him, but they politely gave way to him.

"Commander, the prince is receiving medical treatment inside. Please keep your voice down when you go in to visit, so as not to disturb him." The reinforcements were unexpectedly considerate, which made the leader even more uncomfortable. He was afraid that the reinforcements would attack him and Xiao Yiran secretly, so he was always careful cautious.

Besides Xiao Yiran, there were two people sitting in the carriage, one was Li Qiwu and the other was Liu Ruyu.

The moment the commander came in, he saw his familiar family members, and almost burst into tears because of his excitement.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Liu, it's great that you are here!" The commander burst into tears, wondering if he had experienced life and death. The taciturn he became very emotional, and he talked a lot: "I thought our lord I'm going to die here when I return, and seeing you all here makes me feel more at ease."

The commander was still chattering, but was stopped by Li Qiwu's eyes, and he said to Liu Ruyu beside him without looking back: "Give me the gauze scissors, his wound is a bit deep."

At this time, Liu Ruyu no longer had a playful smile like he usually did. He seriously handed things to Li Siwu with a rare serious expression.

The commander watched the two tacit cooperation from the side, and suddenly felt that he had come at a bit of an inopportune time.

He thought for a while, and decided to leave after asking the last question: "Mr. Li, are the reinforcements outside reliable?"

Li Qiwu was busy taking out the fragment of the flying knife inserted into Xiao Yiran's flesh, so he didn't hear the commander's question.

Because of being too focused and careful, Li Qiwu had already sweated a lot on his forehead, and the sweat was almost dripping into his eyes, and he had no time to wipe it off.

Liu Ruyu, who was guarding beside him, naturally picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Li Qiwu's forehead, stared at Xiao Yiran and Li Qiwu, and replied without raising his head: "Those are the reinforcements brought by the prince. Come to help your lord."

Liu Ruyu seemed to be in a bad mood, and her tone of voice was calm with some impatience hidden.

Seeing this scene, the commander knew that if he continued to ask questions, he would probably only be kicked out of the carriage. He bowed tactfully, and was about to step back when Xiao Yiran, who had fainted, suddenly woke up.

He struggled to get up, stopped the commander and said: "You all obey the command of the prince, and seeing him is seeing the king."

Just after waking up, Xiao Yiran's voice was still a little hoarse. Seeing that the commander was still in a daze, Xiao Yiran coughed a few times and emphasized: "Seeing the prince is like seeing the king."

"Yes." The commander replied, but he still had some opinions in his heart.He couldn't figure out how Xiao Yiran could trust Yan Yun so much, so trusting that he gave him the command of the Xiaoyao Army.

Perhaps guessing what the commander was thinking, Xiao Yiran added another sentence that shocked the commander: "He is the concubine of this king, and this king can trust him."

This sentence successfully made the commander shut up. The commander was so frightened by this shocking news that he didn't recover until he got off the carriage.

"The lord has a concubine, and he's still a man, and he's still the former Prince Yan." The commander kept chanting silently, trying to make himself accept this reality.

With Xiao Yiran's instructions, Xiaoyao's army no longer took precautions against Yan Yun, and together with the reinforcements brought by Yan Yun, they attacked the palace and hit Xiao Yiyang's bedroom.

Xiao Yiyang, who had one leg cut off, was lying on the bed unable to move, only Eunuch Cheng and a few court ladies were serving by his side.

The other ministers and concubines who wanted to visit were all sent away by Xiao Yiyang. He wanted to save face the most, and he didn't want others to see him lying on the bed in such a state of embarrassment and unable to move.

Yan Yun had already waited for the soldiers to block up in front of the bedroom, Xiao Yue led the soldiers to block Yan Yun's way, neither side would back down when the two soldiers met.

This battle has been going on for a long time, and Xiao Yue's soldiers fought against Xiaoyao's army with a large number against a small number, and there was still room for strength.

Now he is facing Yanyun's Yan family army and reinforcements, and he is obviously at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. In addition, they have just fought with the Xiaoyao army before, and most of the soldiers are exhausted and injured. The odds are slim.

Yan Yun was not in a hurry, he just sat on the horse and stared at Xiao Yue, watching how he would win the war that had already been divided. With an unruly smile on his lips, he watched Xiao Yue anxiously trying to find a solution, like It's like teasing a dog.

Xiao Yiyang lay down in the bedroom outside, his safety was in Xiao Yue's hands.Once Xiao Yue is defeated, one can imagine what will happen to Xiao Yiyang.

At this time, those officials who should have been hiding had already gone into hiding, and Yan Yun killed all the thorns who hadn't had time to hide. Even if Yan Yun didn't kill these people today, they would become Xiao Yiran's stumbling block in the future.

The former emperor is now lying on the couch in despair and unable to protect himself.

Thinking that the emperor's life was entrusted to him, and thinking that the people of Jiang Kingdom could not lose a wise king and be controlled by that lunatic Sixth Prince, Xiao Yue's pressure became even greater.

The rise and fall of the Xiao family depended on Xiao Yiran, the emperor, and his most beloved sister was still Xiao Yiyang's concubine. Xiao Yue didn't dare to risk the fate of the family, he could only choose to protect Xiao Yiyang.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yue made up his mind to protect Xiao Yiyang no matter what, even if the outcome was already clear, he would fight to the death for his sister Xiao Guifei and for the Xiao family.

Xiao Yue was about to take the initiative to attack, but he saw Cheng Gonggong running over with a strange expression on his face.

When others didn't notice, Eunuch Cheng secretly cast a look at Wang Ao, and Wang Ao immediately patted Yan Yun's shoulder knowingly.

"Your Majesty, there is a good show to watch." Wang Ao whispered to Yan Yun, while saying: "We will win this battle without fighting."

Just as Yan Yun was about to say something, Xiao Yue's complexion on the other side gradually changed.

"What did you say? What's wrong with Concubine Xiao Gui?" Xiao Yue almost shouted these words, he excitedly pulled up Cheng Gonggong's collar, and the veins on his forehead burst out of anxiety.

Being pulled by the collar like this, Eunuch Cheng immediately showed a look of extreme fear, and he repeated tremblingly: "Concubine Xiao is dead, and the unborn prince is also dead."

After hearing this sentence, Xiao Yue was so angry that he raised his knife and was about to slash at Cheng Gonggong. Cheng Gonggong seemed to have been frightened, and started to excuse himself.

"It's all the emperor's orders, and this old slave just obeyed. General, please spare me!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yue let go of Cheng Gonggong's collar, and continued to speak with a dark face and sincerity.

"The emperor didn't want this child. He asked the old slave to drug Concubine Xiao Gui to abort the child."

Eunuch Cheng seemed to be very frightened, he collapsed on the ground and kowtowed: "I didn't expect that the medicine the emperor found for the concubine would kill the concubine to death."

Eunuch Cheng's seemingly simple words put all the responsibility on Xiao Yiyang.

Hearing this, Xiao Yue's fists were already clenched. Holding back his anger, he continued, "Say what else you know."

Eunuch Cheng, who was kneeling beside him, was shaking like a sieve. He glanced at the direction of Xiao Yiyang's bedroom, and acted very guilty: "If the general promises to spare this old slave's life, the old slave will tell the general everything he knows."

Xiao Yue snorted coldly and said, "Say it quickly."

"The emperor will give Xiao Guifei medicine to avoid children every day when he visits Concubine Xiao, but Concubine Xiao doesn't know about it."

"The emperor will order this old servant to hide the child-repelling medicine in his food and give it to Concubine Xiao."

Hearing this, anyone with a brain knows what Xiao Yiyang is thinking.

He was just afraid that if Concubine Xiao Gui gave birth to a prince, the Xiao family would be too powerful and would threaten the royal rights. After all, Xiao Yiyang had never really trusted the Xiao family.

Not only does he lack trust, but he is also always afraid, trying to disperse the power of the Xiao family.

Hearing this, Xiao Yue was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. He put away his knife and stared in the direction of Xiao Yiyang's bedroom, wondering what he was thinking.

Seeing that the purpose of sowing dissension had been achieved, Eunuch Cheng kowtowed a few more times, seemingly unintentionally, and said, "Last night, after the emperor learned of the unfortunate death of the noble concubine, he asked the old servant to throw the body of the noble concubine into the river outside the palace. Now you There is still time to bury the imperial concubine first, the current is probably not rushing there, and it probably hasn't drifted far."

The seemingly unintentional words of Cheng Gonggong completely ignited Xiao Yue's anger. He angrily pulled out the knife and threw it towards Xiao Yiyang's bedroom. The knife happened to be stuck in the door of the bedroom.

"Retreat, follow me to find the noble concubine, and anyone who violates the law will be killed."

Xiao Yue left these words and took all the soldiers away.

The soldiers were all evacuated by Xiao Yue, and the palace immediately fell, leaving only a few dead soldiers protecting Xiao Yiyang.

The sound of a knife being inserted into the door awakened the sleepy Xiao Yiyang. He reached out to find water to drink, but found that there were only a few dead men beside him, not even a serving maid and eunuch.

Just as Xiao Yiyang wanted to call for someone, he found that he couldn't make any sound after opening his mouth. His throat was unbearably dry and filled with the smell of blood like rust.

He couldn't make a sound, and his mouth was a meaningless "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", like a helpless howl of livestock waiting to be slaughtered.

Yan Yun jumped off the horse and walked to the bedroom step by step. He held a knife in his hand, his eyes were sharper than the blade, and every step he took, blood-colored winds were blown under his feet.

Xiao Yiyang was still struggling helplessly, trying to drink water by himself, but he couldn't get up.
