Chapter 204: He is definitely not such a coward
Helplessly, Li Tianzhuo could only suppress the emotions in his heart.
"Commander-in-chief, you seem to know a lot about the Nanxin royal family!"
Ever since Li Tianzhuo told the story of the childhood of the brothers Si Wang and Sang Wang at the gate of the palace just now, Si Wang has paid special attention to him.
Who could be that person who doesn't dare to show his true face?
"No matter what my personal affairs are, you have to make a choice now. I can only let one of these three women go."
Si Wang knew that Jun Wenci couldn't wait any longer, and he didn't want to waste any more time with them.
He slapped the faces of the three men one by one with the back of the knife in his hand.
After all, she is a woman in the palace, rich and well-maintained. Even though the empress dowager is now over 70 years old, her skin is still very good and she doesn't look old.
"Don't touch them—"
Han Qiongyue was almost scared to death.
She would never allow anything to happen to her best friend.
"Oh."
Si Wang put away the knife in his hand and looked at the Deng family members as if he was waiting for a good show.
"Brother Yan'an, Ningning, leave me alone and save the Empress!"
Jun Wenying was the first to plan to sacrifice himself.
"Silly girl, what are you talking about?"
"I am old now. I have lived for so many years. I have had enough!"
"Sister Qiongyue, don't worry about me, save them."
The Queen Mother spoke the truth.
The emperor and Jun Wenci were both her biological children, but her character and personality were much better than those of her descendants.
Like now, she would never be the one who lives alone!
"Stop arguing."
"The twelfth princess is still young, and you, the queen mother, are old. It is time for your daughter-in-law to sacrifice herself."
As she spoke, Lipin had already bitten her tongue.
Seeing the blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, Deng Youning quickly shouted, "No!"
She is still trying to find a way to save all three of them. Lipin can't give up hope of survival first!
"County Lady Youning, please take good care of my mother for me!"
Concubine Li entrusted her mother with her last words before her death.
After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes with peace of mind.
"Empress Lipin——"
Deng Youning watched her commit suicide but was unable to save her.
This feeling of powerlessness made even someone as strong as her shed tears.
Li Tianzhuo held her hand and prevented her from going forward.
"Okay, there are two left. How do we choose?"
Si Wang urged again.
"I can't wait any longer!"
Han Qiongyue picked up a long sword that someone had dropped from the ground and rushed forward, wanting to kill the people who were holding the Queen Mother and Jun Wenying.
Deng Yan'an did the same, he pulled out a crossbow from his sleeve and wanted to shoot these people.
"Mother, An'er, don't be impulsive..."
Before Deng Ren could finish his words, the grandfather and grandson were knocked to the ground by several Nanxin masters like Wang.
At this time, two generals from the Deng and Han armies came to report:
"Duke, everyone, those monsters of the Canglong Guard are simply impossible to kill. We have already lost too many brothers. Please think of a solution. We can't keep wasting time like this."
"Brothers bitten by those monsters will also become monsters, but we are brothers in the same army after all, and no one is willing to fight them. More and more people are injured by them."
In fact, in terms of numbers, the number of people in Deng and Han’s armies is only twice that of the Canglong Guards.
What's more, those monsters of Canglongwei will infect normal people.
The two generals were almost going crazy. They had no good ideas, so they could only ask their superiors.
Deng Youning supported Han Qiongyue who was knocked flying, and Li Tianzhuo also helped Deng Yan'an up.
But they don't intend to give up just like that.
If you fail the first time, just try the next move.
"Grandmother, cousin, these Nanxin masters are extraordinary. You are no match for them, so just forget it."
Deng Youning also began to stop them from going forward.
It's impossible that the Queen Mother and Jun Wenying would not be rescued and these two would be implicated as well.
"What did you say? How can you just let it go?!"
"If you're afraid of death, just get out of the way and leave me alone!"
Han Qiongyue glared at Deng Youning angrily and pushed her away.
In her impression, Deng Youning was definitely not such a coward, nor was she someone who would abandon her relatives and friends!
Deng Youning had no choice but to go with them.
Li Tianzhuo saw Deng Youning stepping forward to fight, and arranged: "Xiu Ming, guard King Sang well."
"Jiang Yuan."
He gave Jiang Yuan a look, and rushed forward with Deng Youning and the others, fighting back and forth with Nan Xin and his men.
Even Mu Hao, Ying Shi and several other disciples from Qianji Villa joined the melee.
Deng Ren had been watching them fight.
He is really having a headache now!
"My Lord, doesn't Princess Youning know how to remove the poison? Does she have a solution?"
The two generals asked again.
Deng Ren: …
Before they could say a few more words, everyone who was fighting against Master Nan Xin, except Deng Youning and Jiang Yuan, were all knocked to the ground.
Deng Youning's swordsmanship is gentle. Her purpose is not to fight, but to poison.
Jiang Yuan’s martial arts skills are very high, otherwise he would not be able to become Li Tianzhuo’s right-hand man.
He was able to hold on until the end and even killed two people.
Xiu Ming was itching to go up and kill a few of them, but he still had to keep an eye on King Sang.
"County Master Youning, don't waste your energy. Your poison is useless against these absolute masters."
"Don't you know the Qi-holding technique?"
"This is something everyone learned specifically to deal with you!"
Xi Tong's delicate voice sounded, and she smiled triumphantly at Deng Youning.
Deng Youning frowned in anger.
She turned her head and glanced at Deng Ren, knowing that the Deng family army and the Han family army also had a lot of problems.
Now we are attacked from all sides!
"Don't waste your time. My patience is limited."
"Pick one!"
It seemed as if the tip of the king's knife was pointing at the Queen Mother and Jun Wenying again.
"Brother Yan'an, as a descendant, being unfilial is a serious offense. As a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, you must understand this, right?"
Jun Wenying raised his eyebrows and looked at Deng Yan'an. This might be his only wish before he died.
Deng Yan'an was so embarrassed that his face turned red.
"Save...save the Queen Mother..."
He slowly lowered his head, his voice trembling and low, until in the end even he could not hear himself.
"good!"
The Prince Si really kept his word and used a knife to cut the ropes that bound the Queen Mother's hands and feet.
"That little brother, could you please return it to my third brother?"
He was very polite and asked Xiu Mingdao in a consultative manner.
Xiu Ming glanced at Li Tianzhuo, and after getting permission, he brought King Sang forward.
Both sides exchanged hostages.
I did what I said and didn't play any tricks.
However, the Queen Mother was indeed saved, but Jun Wenying was about to face his own death.
Seeing the Queen Mother and the Han Qiongyue sisters hugging each other, she seemed to have no regrets and closed her eyes silently.
Deng Yan'an didn't dare to look at her appearance before she died and turned his head away.
They have so many people on their side, but they just can’t defeat those Nanxin masters?
Deng Youning also felt the same regret.
She was eager to try and plan to attack again.
Before they could hear any movement, there was a sudden sound of chaotic horse hooves, and then something flew across the sky like a rainbow among the crowd and landed directly on Si Wang and Jun Wenci.
Suddenly, a huge explosion was heard, and flames were seen in the billowing smoke.
It was like gunpowder exploding.
Without time to care about others, Li Tianzhuo protected Deng Youning and quickly lay down.
The fire was spreading upwards, and if they lay down they would at most suffer some scratches from the exploded stones.
