Chapter 954: Clouds Cover the Sun and Swallows Return to Their Nests (IV)

"Greetings, Madam."

"lady."

On the other side, among the 300,000 rebels.

Just as Wei Changtian walked out of the teahouse and headed towards the Meridian Gate step by step, Su Qi and Xu Quan stood in front of Yang Liushi with somewhat puzzled expressions.

They looked around calmly but did not see Wei Changtian, so they turned their attention back to Yang Liushi.

"I wonder if the Madam has any instructions?"

After a moment, Su Qi took the lead and asked a question.

Yang Liushi did not keep the question secret and quickly replied calmly, "Master Su, Master Xu."

"In fact, my husband was no longer in the army two days ago, but went to the capital of Daqian first."

"What?"

Su Qi and Xu Quan looked up suddenly, and asked, "The young master has already gone to the capital?"

"yes."

Yang Liushi nodded slightly: "My husband doesn't want too many people to know his whereabouts, so I didn't tell you."

"But just now, my husband sent a message back, ordering us to march at full speed immediately and to reach the capital of Daqian before midnight."

"ah?"

With their mouths wide open, Su Qi and Xu Quan were both a little surprised when they heard this, wondering why Wei Changtian would give such an order.

Fortunately, Yang Liushi understood their confusion and quickly explained softly, "Lord Su, Master Xu, at this very moment, Jing Guoqing is personally reciting the proclamation to quell the rebellion at the Meridian Gate."

"And my husband will kill him before nightfall."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

“.”

Amid the rumbling sounds of the march, the black army was moving slowly not far away. The bright and dazzling golden sunlight made the stunned expressions of Su Qi and Xu Quan particularly clear.

Although Yang Liushi only said three sentences, the content of these sentences shocked them so much.

Wei Changtian not only secretly ran to the capital, but also wanted to kill Jing Guoqing today? ?

Neither of them was stupid, and they soon understood why Wei Changtian ordered them to march at full speed.

No doubt they were planning to take advantage of the chaos in the city after Jing Guoqing's death to "end the battle" in one fell swoop.

But why was Wei Changtian so sure that he could kill Jing Guoqing?

Also, even if Jing Guoqing really died, would the defenders of the capital city definitely give up resistance? For a moment, countless questions rushed into Su Qi and Xu Quan's minds.

At this moment, a messenger also ran over from a distance, knelt on one knee, panting, and then reported loudly: "Sir! Urgent news from the capital!"

"explain!"

His face changed. Although Su Qi had not heard the content of the urgent report, he actually understood at this moment that what Yang Liushi said was true.

What the messenger said next was exactly the same.

"Sir! Jing Guoqing suddenly went to the Meridian Gate a quarter of an hour ago to recite the manifesto in person, and then Master Wei appeared nearby with the intention of assassinating him!"

"What now?!"

Su Qi immediately asked, "Sir, have you succeeded?!"

"Your Excellency! When the urgent report was sent back, Master Wei had not yet approached the Meridian Gate, so it is still unknown whether he succeeded!"

The messenger replied: "But according to the urgent report, Jing Guoqing has not escaped yet!"

".Okay, you can go down."

"yes!"

After a loud response, the messenger quickly stood up and ran away.

Su Qi also put aside all the questions in his mind, turned to look at Yang Liushi, took a deep breath and said:

"Madam, I will pass the order down and march at full speed. I will never ruin the master's plan!"

"Well, thank you, Master Su."

Nodding slightly at Su Qi, Yang Liushi looked at Xu Quan again.

"Mr. Xu, please lead the Tengu Army ahead and make sure we reach the capital before dusk."

"Someone will be there to meet you at all four city gates."

".Okay! I'll go right away!"

Without saying a word, Xu Quan agreed decisively.

It was obvious that he and Su Qi had completely figured out Wei Changtian's plan.

Although they still had some doubts about whether they could "kill Jing Guoqing", they knew that they could only trust Wei Changtian at this point, so they quickly went to mobilize troops.

Before dusk, the Tengu army arrived first.

Before midnight, the rebels arrived again.

Judging from the current position of the army, this task is not that difficult.

The real difficulty is whether Wei Changtian can kill Jing Guoqing before the Tengu army arrives.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Even though Wei Changtian had expressed full confidence in the letter, Yang Liushi still felt a little worried at this moment.

On the one hand, he was worried that Jing Guoqing would not die, and on the other hand, he was worried that something might happen to Wei Changtian.

Yang Liushi was not afraid that Jing Guoqing could threaten Wei Changtian.

She was afraid of the "evil tigers" hiding in the dark.

Fortunately, Wei Changtian intentionally concealed his whereabouts. A quarter of an hour ago, the spies from various forces still thought that he was still in the rebel army and were still watching nearby.

So, it should be fine.

“Swish! Swish, swish, swish!”

"ah!!!"

“Bang, bang, bang, bang!!”

“.”

Daqian capital, Imperial Street.

As the central axis of the entire city, Yudao Street extends from the South Gate to the Meridian Gate of the Imperial Palace, dividing the huge capital into the east and west sides.

At this moment, the long street, which could accommodate five carriages running side by side, was crowded with countless imperial guards in golden armor, and countless corpses were lying in all directions.

A long trail of blood started from outside a small teahouse, stretched for more than a hundred feet, and was still slowly extending forward.

Wei Changtian walked at the forefront of the bloodstain, his eyes fixed on the top of the Meridian Gate in front of him, his expression not changing at all.

“Stop him!!”

"Stop, stop him!!!"

"No one is allowed to retreat!!"

Not far away, a captain drew his sword and roared at the top of his lungs, and the next moment he chopped off the heads of several imperial guards who were cowering back.

The others felt a chill on their backs when they saw this, and had no choice but to continue rushing towards Wei Changtian with their swords, but they did not notice that the captain's voice had already become extremely frightened.

Faced with the "living devil" who had only been heard of in rumors before, no one could remain calm.

If Wei Changtian had rushed directly towards the Meridian Gate, the situation might have been better.

But the former just walked slowly and calmly, as if he wanted to stay on this long street for a while, wanting to let the people around him see clearly what he was going to do.

This was undoubtedly a torture for these imperial guards.

They couldn't beat him, couldn't stop him, and couldn't even touch the edge of his black clothes. Every time Wei Changtian took a step, swung his sword, or killed a person, the fear in their hearts grew. Now they were almost on the verge of collapse.

What’s more crucial is that a hundred breaths have passed since Wei Changtian walked out of the teahouse, but there has still been no response from the Meridian Gate.

There is no doubt that Jing Guoqing could not have remained in shock until now.

So, the reason why he has not taken any action yet is undoubtedly because he is still struggling.

Struggling with whether or not to escape.
