All of a sudden, the crowd rushed in, and in the blink of an eye, Zhou Dingbang, who was shot by several arrows, and his bodyguards, as well as the small group of messengers, were torn to pieces.
The small group of 'Divine Guards' that started the war had already taken advantage of the fierce fighting between the two sides and quietly escaped to a nearby hill.
"Alright! Stop watching the excitement. Everyone, hurry up and finish your food so that you can go back and report to the master."
The boy with a high ponytail swiftly took off his Avatar clothes, revealing a black outfit. Upon closer inspection, he was actually a cool girl of about 17 years old!
It was Xuanming, who ranked first among the top five under Gu Cheng!
"Master! We have solved all the hidden guards in Nanqi in one fell swoop this time. I am afraid that the old witch Beichen will be quiet for a while and will not trouble the master again. Can we finally follow the master openly and honestly?"
They were the team sent by Gu Cheng to deliberately provoke the Yongping Army's hidden defense war.
Speaking of which, my family has watched the little prince grow up. After not seeing him for a few days, I miss the cute little boy.
"Our duty is to protect our master. It doesn't matter whether we are exposed to others or not."
Xuan Ming, however, looked casual. He put the long legs of the dog on a nearby branch and started eating the roasted chicken legs that were handed down from the dog.
"Also, I'm not your husband. Stop yelling."
"Why not?! Every year we rank them based on the comprehensive evaluation of the annual assessment. You ranked second last year. Xuanfeng's martial arts is slightly better, ranking first. If something happens, the kid will be in great danger. You will..."
"It's not our turn to discuss it privately. It only counts after the master has his say." Xuan Ming glanced at him coldly as a warning.
Seeing that the battle over there was coming to an end, he simply ordered his men to throw a few cannons, sending the remaining Yongping Army to the west in secret.
She then stood up and stretched her muscles.
"We have worked hard to prepare such a show, how can there be no audience? Light up all the Yongping Army signal bombs you looted earlier, and let the officers and soldiers nearby come and see the gift our master has prepared for them!"
“Swoosh—swoosh—swoosh—”
Dozens of colorful fireworks exploded in the gray sky, as if celebrating this rare massacre of tens of thousands of people.
The girl mounted her black horse and rode away with the others behind her. Her high ponytail swung in a refreshing manner. In terms of temperament, she was no less elegant than the men following behind her.
…
On a high palace a hundred miles away, two men, one sitting and one standing, were looking at the flags fluttering in the distance.
“Ahem…”
Sheng Yuhan hurried on his way overnight, his face as pale as paper. At this time, a cold wind blew over the high platform, causing him to cough a few times.
The man in brocade clothes beside him quickly smoothed his back. After Sheng Yuhan took a pill, his face became visibly redder. He couldn't help but ask in surprise:
"Brother Yuhan, you are poisoned and no famous doctor can help you. Could it be that the master is helping you to detoxify? Now I am really curious about who the master with all-seeing eyes is."
"It's over by a wandering alchemist who wishes to remain anonymous."
He didn't want to reveal his younger sister's ability and bring danger to her, so he just let it go.
"Speaking of which, this time it was thanks to Brother Jing'an's willingness to send troops to help us stop the 50,000 Jingji Guards."
"Humph! You and I have known each other for so many years, and I can't even help you with such a small favor?"
Ning Wang Xiao Jing'an was somewhat unhappy with Sheng Yuhan's distant attitude, so he snorted in anger.
"You were sentenced to exile so suddenly that I had no time to rescue you. After that, I kept petitioning the court to redress your injustice but was always rejected. Fortunately, you came to me for help, otherwise I would have felt guilty for the rest of my life!"
"Besides, you also brought me the prescription from that expert, which helped my wife's illness get better. I deserve your thanks."
Although the two men had very different identities, Prince Ning was not at all arrogant and even treated Sheng Yuhan as a brother.
Sheng Yuhan was always calm, but at this moment he couldn't help but be moved. He couldn't help but say:
"Brother Jing'an, I'm sure you've figured it out. He Huaiyuan dared to defy the will of the world and dispatched 50,000 Gyeonggi Guards to encircle and suppress us. He was determined to capture us."
"If you deploy troops at the border between your fiefdom and the capital region, although it will not cause any substantial harm to the court, it is also a blatant provocation to the court, and I am afraid that you will bear serious consequences."
"Let me go. I have my own plan."
When talking about the imperial court, Xiao Jing'an would grit his teeth in anger.
"The Southern Qi Dynasty was ruined by the misfortunes of its foreign relatives. I thought that officials who were idle and caused the people to be displaced were the limit."
"Who would have thought that the He Huaiyuan brothers would secretly kidnap people for their own selfish interests. The most powerful person in Southern Qi is the most evil tyrant! What is there to be loyal to in this corrupt court?!"
Xiao Jingan obviously also saw the evidence that Sheng Nanxi had scattered in Linyang County. When he got excited, he couldn't help but raise his voice:
"If I didn't want my wife to be alone in an empty room, I would really like to follow the example of those idle and capable people in history, lead troops to the capital to eliminate dissidents for Your Majesty, and trample on traitors like He Huaiyuan!"
Sheng Yuhan was startled by these words. He glanced at Wang Zhou and was relieved when he was sure that there was really no one there.
"Hey! Brother Yuhan! So, I see that the imperial court is crumbling, and there are some good people among the Xiao princes who are secretly gathering power, and they are quite happy. This imperial court is rotten to the core, so it's better to get rid of it!"
Hearing this, even Sheng Yuhan sighed. Although Xiao Jingan was a member of the Southern Qi royal family, he was pure in character and truly cared for the people without any selfish desires.
"Well, I'll wait until that day."
Somehow, Sheng Yuhan's mind suddenly emerged with his own little sister who appeared soft and cute but was actually very shrewd, and Gu Gucheng who was obviously not an ordinary person.
Talents emerge in every generation. They are already outstanding at such a young age, and I am afraid they will be able to bring even greater shocks to the world in the future.
The two of them looked at the scenery in the distance in silence, but suddenly a maid came up with a tray.
"Sir, this is the Lingyou Temple amulet you requested."
Sheng Yuhan turned around and saw several exquisite amulets on the rosewood tray. One of them was embroidered with gold thread and was more valuable than the others.
"The amulets of our Lingyou Temple are famous for their efficacy. There is an endless stream of people coming from all over the world to ask for amulets. Even if you have a lot of money, you have to wait ten days or half a month to get one."
"This time, for your sake, I promised Lingyou Temple many benefits, so I asked Master Huiyuan to make these amulets for you. The old man's process of consecrating the amulets is very complicated, so only one amulet is consecrated per day."
Xiao Jingan's face was full of gossip, and he leaned his head towards Sheng Yuhan.
"This unique and precious amulet has the birth chart of a 15-year-old baby embroidered on it. I think it is meant for your little Xier."
"The remaining horoscopes barely match your family members, and one of them corresponds to the horoscope of a young girl."
"The young master of the Sheng family has always been a clean man, and he doesn't have the habit of giving gifts to girls casually. Can you tell me who this woman is?"
"What? Did our Master Yu Han find the pink-dressed lady that he fell in love with at first sight at the Xiaodeng Party?"
