"General Nie?"
"Why is General Nie here? Could it be that General Nie has rebelled as well?"
...
Nie You, who was hiding in the palace-forcing team, walked out slowly. He was not wearing a general's armor, but dressed as a soldier. No wonder no one noticed him.
When Yu Yuanbai saw him, his eyes blazed with anger, "Nie You, as a general, you actually conspired with Prime Minister Yao to rebel!"
Nie You avoided Yu Yuanbai's gaze when he heard his question, and bowed to Prime Minister Yao, "Prime Minister."
Yao Xiang said, "General Nie has been meritorious in clearing the court of corrupt officials today. Later, I will appoint you as Grand Marshal and let you enjoy wealth and glory with me. At that time, you will not even need to pay attention to women like Princess Pingyang or even Prince Kang."
King Kang: ???
Can you please be more discreet when you talk about me?
Yu Yuanbai knew that Nie You had already rebelled, so he didn't waste any words and directly drew the knife from his waist. "Even if I die in battle today, I, Yu Yuanbai, will not let you succeed."
He stood at the front, with the momentum of a single man blocking a thousand.
Several soldiers rushed up, and Yu Yuanbai raised his sword and struck them without mercy.
More and more people rushed up, but Yu Yuanbai seemed tireless, standing at the bottom of the stairs and not letting anyone go up.
"laugh."
Yu Yuanbai's arm was scratched.
Su Man couldn't bear it anymore, so she pulled the crown off her head, and her black hair fell down.
Before the prince could react, she had already rushed down the stairs, slashed at the arm that injured Yu Yuanbai, and stood back to back with Yu Yuanbai.
Yu Yuanbai scolded, "Hurry up and get on."
"Brother, I am also a member of the Yu family."
Su Man's words were like a curse. Yu Yuanbai did not try to stop her, but instead supported Su Man.
The Crown Prince also wanted to go down, but was stopped by the ministers, "Your Highness, you can't!"
"Your Highness, if you leave, the general will be distracted and hindered."
The prince was helpless and said to the small number of imperial guards, "Go down and help!"
These people had been ready to make a move for a long time, but they dared not act without the emperor's orders. Now that the crown prince had spoken, they all drew their swords and attacked. Su Man and Yu Yuanbai felt a lot more relaxed instantly.
Seeing that they had been fighting for so long without any result, Yao Xiang said impatiently, "Archer."
Nie You paused, "If we use archers, then these adults..."
"We can't delay it any longer. Let them fend for themselves."
The rebels fell back and the archers advanced.
Yu Yuanbai was anxious. Although he had prepared a Yu Family Army in case of emergency after Su Man reminded him, it would take time for the news to spread. The only thing he could do now was to delay it for a little longer.
Yu Yuanbai said to the few imperial guards around him, "Stand back and raise your shields to protect the emperor and the ministers."
Then, he grabbed Su Man's arm and threw her back, "Go back."
Immediately, the Royal Guards caught her and surrounded her with shields.
"elder brother!"
Su Man looked at Yu Yuanbai's broad back, and her nose felt inexplicably sour. Could it be that she still couldn't change Yu Yuanbai's fate of dying in battle?
Just then, there was a sound of fighting outside, and the Yu family army arrived.
Su Man saw hope and shouted, "Brother, come back soon."
Seeing the Yu Family Army outside the palace, Prime Minister Yao was desperate and shouted, "Shoot!"
Several swords were fired at the same time.
Yu Yuanbai danced with his sword with impenetrable force, occasionally shooting a fish behind him, only to be blocked by his shield. However, swords are blind, and a sharp arrow pierced Yu Yuanbai's thigh. He used his sword to support himself and knelt on one knee.
The archer drew arrows from the quiver behind his back, and many ministers dared not watch. But Yu Yuanbai still managed to stand up and swung his sword.
“Puff.”
Two more arrows lodged in his shoulder and arm.
The sound of fighting outside was getting closer, and Prime Minister Yao became anxious. He snatched the arrow from a soldier and aimed it at Yu Yuanbai.
Yu Yuanbai was already at the end of his strength at this moment, but he was not afraid or timid. This was his fate as a member of the Yu family and also his fate as a general.
“Swish, swish, swish.”
The sound of breaking through the air was heard one after another.
Yu Yuanbai had no way to avoid it, and at this moment, a weak body blocked his way.
"younger sister!"
He watched in horror as several sharp arrows pierced Suman's chest at the same time.
At the same time, the Yu family army finally broke in.
Yu Yuanbai caught Su Man's shaky body, but did not dare to touch her. He didn't know where the arrows pierced, and could only watch the blood flow out of the blood holes in her body.
Su Man glanced at Nie You and Yao Xiang, both of whom were restrained, and gave a weak smile.
[Nie You's rebellion failed, his luck value decreased by 35, and his current luck value is 0]
"Don't worry, brother. I'm just tired... I need to get some sleep."
"Sister, don't sleep. It's all my fault. I failed to protect you." Yu Yuanbai felt heartbroken when he saw Su Man, whose face was pale.
"Brother, you said that the Yu Family Army is proud to die in battle, but I don't want you to die. I am also a member of the Yu Family. I will die for you, brother. You must live a good life in the future..."
Yu Yuanbai buried his head in Su Man's palm, "It's my brother who is sorry for you."
Su Man raised her eyes and saw the prince standing beside her. Although he didn't show much expression, his eyes were red and he pursed his lips, trying hard to suppress his emotions.
This is the prince, he must never lose his composure at any time.
Su Man forced herself to take out the jade pendant he had given her. It was stained with blood. She gasped, "I am unlucky. I will return this jade pendant to... to the prince. Let it continue to protect him."
