This sharp arrow seemed to be the prelude to a great war.
Xiao Yuqi dodged the sharp arrow swiftly and swung his six-foot-long sword violently, cutting the arrow into two pieces.
"ah!"
“Go!”
Countless soldiers swarmed forward.
King Ye laughed crazily, "The combined strength of the entire Jian'an City is less than half of my total strength. Xiao Yuqi, even if Old Five helps you, he has no military power. How long do you think you can hold on?"
Duan Chengyi cut off the enemy's head with one sword.
Blood gushed out, causing a burst of screams.
The timid officials' wives were so frightened that they fainted.
The round head rolled down the high steps.
...
...
King Ye was furious and waved his hand: "Kill him for me!"
"Anyone who kills Xiao Yuqi personally will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver and promoted to the third rank."
For a time, the morale of King Ye's troops soared.
He was right. The combined strength of the Yulin Guards and the Patrol Battalion was less than half of the army of Prince Ye.
However, King Ye missed one point.
It is true that Xiao Linshen does not have military power, but he has a high reputation in the court. He is fully capable of making all the noble families settled in Jian'an City spare no effort to send out their troops and join the war.
With him as a guarantee, Pojun went out of the city to mobilize troops early this morning.
In less than half a day, Po Jun assembled 30,000 troops, led by the governor of Ruzhou, and surrounded the enemy.
There were also countless personal soldiers trained privately by Xiao Yuqi, who mixed in with the troops who came to rescue the emperor and fought bravely against the enemy.
A single spark can start a prairie fire.
When all the forces came together, with unstoppable momentum, they attacked from both inside and outside. In just a moment, they turned the tide and the King of Ye's army was completely defeated.
He was confident that these forces were at odds with each other and would never form a united front.
But he didn't expect that the enemy of his enemy is his friend.
The world is bustling with people all seeking profit. For the sake of long-term benefits, people will temporarily put aside their differences.
It is not a difficult thing for everyone.
King Ye was surrounded by the secret guards he had trained and protected behind him.
He watched helplessly as his men fell one after another.
He looked at Xiao Yuqi with resentment in his eyes.
"Do you think you really won?"
There was a look of determination on his face.
"You know clearly in your heart, who is the winner, you or him!"
He pointed at Xiao Linshen.
If it weren't for Xiao Linshen, he, Xiao Linyue, would definitely win this battle!
Xiao Yuqi met Xiao Linshen's indifferent eyes.
A slight smile.
"So what?"
yes!
What does it matter how you win?
In the end, he won!
That's enough.
King Ye looked mad.
"I want to see with my own eyes how long you can sit on the throne! Hahahaha!"
A soft sword, like a ghost, came towards King Ye's back, stabbed diagonally into his spine, and pierced his heart with one sword.
Only a muffled groan was heard.
Xiao Yuqi turned around suddenly, only to see Xiao Linshen's innocent face.
"Sorry, my hand slipped!"
For the first time, Xiao Yuqi had a clear understanding of the strength of this imperial uncle.
King Ye cannot die in his hands.
Otherwise, he would be charged with being unfilial and unfraternal.
But, King Ye could die at the hands of Xiao Linshen.
This once again adds a highlight to his achievement of following the dragon.
The prejudices of the world are already deeply rooted.
A palace coup ended in a hasty manner.
When Su Jianyue was half asleep, she vaguely saw that there was another person in the room.
At first, she thought she was dreaming.
But in a blink of an eye, I realized something was wrong.
When she opened her eyes again, she was startled by the man sitting next to her, motionless.
Su Jianyue exclaimed, and with a click, she turned on the light in the room.
The dazzling light made Xiao Yuqi close his eyes subconsciously.
Su Jianyue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw who was coming.
"You're sitting on my bed in the middle of the night without saying a word. It's scary, isn't it?"
Xiao Yuqi's eyebrows were gloomy. "Do you have anything to eat? I'm hungry!"
"Hungry?"
Su Jianyue glanced at the time on her phone.
"It's three o'clock in the morning!"
Very good, he had no idea what three o'clock in the morning meant!
"Okay, I'll treat you to a feast!"
Xiao Yuqi followed him to the kitchen with great interest.
He watched Su Jianyue take out a bright red small barrel from the cupboard, then tear open the lid, tear open small packages of unknown things inside, and squeeze them into the small barrel.
After that, add boiling water and cover the lid.
A rich fragrance wafted out.
Xiao Yuqi swallowed subconsciously.
Su Jianyue put the things on the dining table.
“Braised beef noodles, you deserve it!”
“Is this also noodles?”
Xiao Yuqi looked at the colorful wrapping paper and asked, "Can we eat it without cooking?"
"That's right, just boil some water and you can eat it in a moment!"
“Is it so convenient?”
Xiao Yuqi couldn't believe it.
"Yes, its alias is called instant noodles!"
"What a clever name!"
Under Xiao Yuqi's expectant gaze, Su Jianyue opened the lid of the instant noodle box.
Xiao Yuqi took a sip and was so delicious that his eyes lit up.
“It’s delicious!”
After eating two mouthfuls, my empty stomach gradually warmed up.
He sighed contentedly: "Why is the food here so delicious?"
Su Jianyue was puzzled.
Shouldn't things made by the royal chef taste better?
"No!"
He sincerely praised: "The girl's cooking skills are a hundred times better than the royal chef's!"
"Is this true? I don't believe it!"
Su Jianyue came closer and said, "Unless you take me to try it!"
Xiao Yuqi readily agreed.
After eating the noodles, he first moved a box of medicine over. After a while, he came back and took Su Jianyue to his bedroom.
Who would have known that as soon as she walked over, Su Jianyue's attention was attracted by an exquisite box placed on the dragon couch.
"This is?"
Su Jianyue asked tentatively.
Xiao Yuqi smiled and said, "I promised to give the girl a thank-you gift!"
A beating heart, trembling hands.
Su Jianyue opened the box tremblingly, and the golden light almost blinded her eyes.
"Ah! I'm rich, I'm rich!"
She lay on the box like an octopus.
Xiao Yuqi looked at her and chuckled.
Little did she know that her voice was heard outside the palace, and the palace servants standing guard outside the door looked at each other in bewilderment.
That was the girl's voice just now, wasn't it?
When did a girl appear in your Majesty's palace?
