Emperor Tianwu looked deeply at the city gate.
After seeing several palace guards fall down again, he gritted his teeth, turned around and ran towards the west corner gate.
It is not suitable to ride a horse at this time. You can only lead the horse to a place where there is no rain of arrows, and then get on the horse and gallop away.
Otherwise, if you get on the horse at this time, you will become a target.
All the ministers followed in a swarm.
Emperor Tianwu had already run away. If they didn't leave, the arrows would fall on them when the palace guards and secret guards who were blocking the arrows retreated to protect Emperor Tianwu.
The ministers ran so fast that they wished they could run ahead of Emperor Tianwu.
Emperor Tianwu followed his ministers into the alley. The sound of rain of arrows in his ears became smaller. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he looked up and saw four rows of crossbowmen squatting in the alley.
The first row of crossbowmen were squatting on the ground, the second row were half-squatting, the third row were standing, and the fourth row were on horseback.
Sharp crossbow arrows were aimed at everyone.
The ministers were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were shaking like sieves. Their hands holding the horses unconsciously raised up.
“Don’t…don’t shoot…”
With so many crossbow arrows shooting at them, they will instantly become hedgehogs.
The ministers did not dare to run, for they were afraid that if they moved, the crossbow arrows would be shot at them.
How could they run faster than a crossbow? That would be courting death.
Emperor Tianwu's throat rolled, and a trace of sorrow flashed in his eyes.
Does God really want him to die?
At this moment, Kong Zongli suddenly pointed at the young man in front of the crossbowmen, who was leaning against the wall and looking at them with his arms crossed.
“It’s…it’s Shen Yong!!!”
Everyone was stunned and their eyes shifted away from the crossbowman.
Shen Yong curled his lips into a smile, raised his hands and clapped his hands.
“Pah pah pah…”
"Minister Kong has a very good eye. He recognized me at first sight."
"I have been waiting here for a long time. Your speed..."
Chen Yong shook his head in disdain, "It's really too slow..."
As soon as he entered the city, he led two teams of crossbowmen straight to the south gate.
The road leading to the South City Gate is the shortest, and no one knows it better than him.
As soon as he arrived at the South Gate, he quickly captured the gate guards and left a team of crossbowmen to guard the gate.
Of course, he has more than just this trick up his sleeve.
There are crossbowmen at the gate. If the crossbowmen cannot hold on, the crossbowmen standing on the gate tower will throw grenades.
He also calculated that the secret guards and palace guards under Emperor Tianwu would definitely be able to block the rain of arrows, giving Emperor Tianwu a chance to escape.
The closest gate to the South City Gate is the West Corner Gate.
This road is the fastest way to get to Xijiaomen.
I have to say, the original owner’s years in the capital were not in vain.
Shen Yong knew where all the roads in the capital led to.
When he came to the capital, he felt as familiar with it as if he were going to his own backyard.
Emperor Tianwu looked at the arrogant Chen Yong, and his hand holding the sword was shaking slightly with anger.
“Shen Yong!!!”
Emperor Tianwu shouted angrily, staring at Shen Yong with red eyes.
If there weren't so many crossbowmen pointing at him, he would have swung his sword and slashed at Shen Yong.
But at the moment, he didn't dare to move an inch, for fear that Shen Yong would get anxious and directly order the arrows to be shot, and then he would be really finished.
Emperor Tianwu's throat rolled, suppressing the anger that was about to overflow in his heart, and raised the sword in his hand.
"You know, if your father hadn't begged me to leave a bloodline for the Shen family, your head would have been chopped off by this sword long ago."
"Think about how many crimes you committed during those years in the capital. I let you go because of the Shen family's loyalty."
"I never thought you would actually do something so outrageous and rebellious. Can you truly live up to your ancestors?"
"Your ancestors have wholeheartedly protected the Great Celestial Empire. Do you want to destroy the image of your Shen family's generations of loyalty?"
Emperor Tianwu stared at Shen Yong with a pair of cold eyes.
"If you stop now, I can grant you the throne of a king of a different surname."
"One man below ten thousand men above ten thousand men!"
Shen Yong raised his eyebrows and chuckled, then raised his hand to pick his ears.
"So, you still remember the generations of loyal heroes in the Shen family."
Shen Yong suddenly lowered his voice and looked at Emperor Tianwu with murderous eyes.
"The Shen Family Ancestral Hall houses twenty-two tablets dedicated to heroes and martyrs."
"But what did the Shen family get? You were ruthless and ruthless."
Shen Yong sneered, his eyes like a venomous snake entwining the pale-faced Emperor Tianwu.
"After today, do you think the historian should write in the history books, 'Twenty-three Loyal Souls' or 'A Family of Rebellious Traitors'?"
"Or maybe, the founding emperor!!!"
When he said the last sentence, Shen Yong threw his head back and laughed.
He came too late, otherwise the father and brothers of the Shen family would not have died. He would have led his father and brothers to rebel and realize the great dream of unifying the six kingdoms.
Of course, even if the Shen family's father and brothers were not around, he would still want to unify the nations.
Since we have come to ancient times, let’s go big.
I'm in all-in, you guys can do whatever you want...
Emperor Tianwu listened to Chen Yong's heart-wrenching words and couldn't help but shake with anger.
Kong Zongli, who was standing by, saw that Emperor Tianwu seemed to be about to faint from anger, and tried to persuade him.
"Chen Yong, I'm a colleague of your father's. Please listen to me."
Shen Yong glanced at Kong Zongli lightly, with a sneer on his face.
Kong Zongli looked at Chen Yong's expression, pulled the corner of his lips awkwardly, and continued to speak with a stiff upper lip.
"Your father's last wish was that you brothers would protect the great Celestial Empire."
"If your father knew what you were doing now, he would probably not forgive you."
"Take my advice and stop."
"The Shen family has produced a king of a different surname, which is already a great honor for the family."
"If you still insist on rebelling, I'm afraid you will bring shame to the ancestors of the Shen family..."
Seeing Chen Yong's expressionless face, Kong Zongli thought his persuasion had worked, and couldn't help but say a few more words.
"If you are truly worried, feel free to ask for anything. The Emperor has always been compassionate to you and will definitely grant you anything he can."
Having said that, Kong Zongli turned and looked at Emperor Tianwu.
Emperor Tianwu pursed his lips tightly and nodded with a dark face.
"If you have any request, tell me."
As long as Chen Yong can withdraw his troops, he will then get the extremely lethal weapons in Chen Yong's hands.
By that time, Chen Yong will die.
Emperor Tianwu lowered his eyelids slightly to conceal the murderous intent that flashed across his eyes.
Chen Yong laughed out loud as if he had heard a funny joke.
“Hahahaha…hahaha…hahaha…”
Chen Yong's smile stunned all the ministers and Emperor Tianwu.
Why did he suddenly start laughing when we were talking about serious matters?
If you have any requests, just ask directly.
With so many crossbow arrows pointed at them, they didn't dare to move. It was really frustrating.
