A few dozen meters away, the handsome man was already leading his troops on horseback slowly approaching.
There was a large crowd of people in front of them, and a dark mass of shadows.
Rong Shang glanced at the carriage behind her, her eyes narrowing, her gaze sharp and dangerous.
"Go down."
The carriage that was walking in front of the horse-drawn carriage was blocked by the newcomer.
After Rong Chang asked Hua Changge for his opinion, the two of them stepped over the items on the carriage and got off from the back.
Night fell, and the wind rustled the leaves in the surrounding trees.
The night sky was filled with dark clouds; it looked like it was going to rain.
At this moment, the carriage that Consort Lian was riding in was stopped by Hua Changxuan's men.
The two sides were on the verge of battle, and the atmosphere became tense.
The road leading to the foot of the mountain in the south of the city is ahead. As the saying goes, there are roads in all directions. If they can't go south, there are other directions they can leave in.
And now, there is a road to their right.
The people in front were originally there to cover them, but now that they were stopped, Hua Changge quietly left from behind the carriage with Rong Shang.
At this moment, Hua Changxuan's mind was entirely focused on the person on the dragon carriage.
With so many people around, he didn't realize that Hua Changge and Rong Shang had already run away.
Hua Changxuan came here to avenge what happened back then. He had schemed against him before, but now, the tables have turned.
It would be better to kill him outside than to lead troops into battle, which is both time-consuming and laborious.
Before the carriage, the lead guard bowed to the distinguished man before him and said respectfully, "Your Majesty Changxuan, today our lord and Consort Yun are leaving the palace for the South Temple. I wonder if Your Majesty Changxuan would be so kind as to allow them to pass?"
"No way!"
The guard had barely finished speaking when a cold, icy voice immediately followed.
The two words perfectly capture the tension and domineering aura.
The guard frowned immediately.
Hua Changxuan glanced at him coldly, then looked directly at the luxurious carriage behind him.
"Hua Changge, since we're already here today, I have no intention of going back."
"Come down now, and perhaps I can spare your life." It wasn't that Hua Changxuan was arrogant, but rather that he came with complete confidence.
Putting aside everything else, just consider the eight guards Hua Changge brought with him. Could they possibly defeat the hundreds behind him?
Hua Changxuan didn't want to delay any longer; tonight was the best time.
He killed Hua Changge here, just like he had done before, to fabricate the fact that he was dead.
By then, he will want both the empire and the beautiful women.
But……
The carriage ahead was quiet.
Given Hua Changge's temperament, he should have stepped forward to mock him and vent his anger after Hua Changge's provocation today.
But seeing how calm he was, Hua Changxuan narrowed his eyes dangerously and immediately sensed that something was wrong.
He ordered his men behind him, "Go and search me thoroughly."
"I want to see how Lord Changge turns into a coward tonight."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
At his command, a dozen men on horseback immediately charged forward.
The guards on Hua Changge's side were ready to draw their swords at the sight of him.
Who knew they were a little too slow, and their opponent already had a sharp sword pressed against their necks.
"Don't move, swords don't have eyes."
After the lead guard spoke, he looked behind him and shouted, "Please bring out Lord Changge and Consort Yun!"
Upon hearing this, some guards jumped off their horses and boarded the carriage directly.
But when he pulled back the curtain, a foot kicked out from inside and knocked him off the carriage.
"Ouch!" The guard cried out in pain.
Not far away, Hua Changxuan saw this scene and his doubts immediately disappeared.
