Chapter 542 To Live
Following this command, Prince Xin's army suddenly raised the long swords in their hands and marched towards Jiang Yanchuan to attack!
Jiang Yian's expression froze, and he immediately raised his hands: "Capture them for me!!"
"Whoever captures the head of the anti-thief will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!!"
"yes!!"
An earth-shaking roar immediately rang out in the sky above Chongyun Palace. Another wave of soldiers that were confronting Prince Xin's army immediately swung their swords at the nearest opponent. The sounds of sharp blades colliding echoed one after another in various places in Chongyun Palace, along with the sounds of the rebels dodging in panic, and the scene became a mess.
Some soldiers rushed to build a human wall around Jiang Silin. The land beneath his feet seemed like the eye of a storm. All the chaos spread around this area. A group of ministers also squeezed in. The sounds of pushing and shouting were constantly mixed with the sounds of fighting, making the place chaotic and harsh.
Jiang Silin had no time to pay attention to what was happening behind him. He just looked straight at Jiang Yanchuan opposite him through the moving figures.
Something is wrong.
His brows were furrowed.
Jiang Yanchuan's reaction was not right!
The soldiers he brought with him were temporarily held back by King Jing's men, and so far they have not been able to get inside, but -
Jiang Yanchuan had not said a word since then. Even the Yunhui general Zhu Qian standing next to him stood there calmly, as if he was not worried at all about the situation.
Jiang Silin's heartbeat suddenly quickened and his brows furrowed even tighter.
The court officials who had hidden in the protection circle of the soldiers followed this glance, and several of them who were quick-witted noticed the situation in an instant. They no longer cared about their face, squeezed out their colleagues who had not yet reacted, and stuck closely behind Jiang Silin.
"Your Highness!" The man who spoke couldn't help but tremble in his voice, "Why don't we call back the soldiers you sent to the various palaces, Your Highness!!"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's good to recall them!" Someone immediately echoed, "We don't know how many people Zhu Qian has brought back. Your safety should be the most important thing!!"
"My Lord, you——"
"Shut up." Jiang Silin growled irritably, turned around suddenly, and searched the soldiers brought by Zhu Qian.
Before his sight got past the numerous obstacles behind him, he saw a flash of cold light suddenly appear from the "eye of the storm" circle, and it passed through the ministers blocking the middle at an extremely fast speed and attacked directly in his direction!
Jiang Silin's eyebrows jumped, and he drew out the long sword at his waist reflexively and raised his hand to meet the attack!
"bass--"
The sound of the swords rubbing against each other was so sharp that it made the hearts of the rebels who followed them skip a beat.
"ah!!"
"There is a traitor!!"
Several ministers who had just declared that they would defend Jiang Silin to the death immediately stepped back several steps, leaving room for the two men to fight.
In the blink of an eye, only Pan Jifeng and two generals were left around Jiang Silin.
Just as they were about to raise their swords and move forward, they saw out of the corner of their eyes that the swords of several of the soldiers who had been protecting them in the middle had turned around!
Pan Jifeng's scalp went numb, and he subconsciously raised the long knife in his hand and shouted: "Are you crazy?!"
Do you really think that Emperor Mingze is such a kind person that he can let bygones be bygones?
That person really can't tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes!!
However, the soldier who attacked them did not answer, but just kept swinging the long sword in his hand at them!
The ministers who had been hiding in the encirclement were already screaming and scattering in all directions. Pan Jifeng let out a roar and raised his sword to fight back angrily.
It's just that all his skills were acquired when he was young. After being in a high position for many years, he had long since slacked off in martial arts. Even just a few counterattacks had made him sweat profusely.
Just when he was about to lead these traitors in the direction of Prince Xin's Army, Pan Jifeng suddenly saw that the scattered ministers were stopped in all directions by a knife from the "Prince Xin's Army" that rushed out from nowhere. Now they were lying on the ground holding their wounds, crying and wailing at the top of their lungs.
"You hit the wrong guy! You hit the wrong guy!!"
"We are the people of the King of Faith. We are the people of the King of Faith!!"
"The Emperor Mingze's men are behind us—"
His dazed mind became clear again because of this sudden change. Pan Jifeng took a deep breath and turned around.
Emperor Mingze was still standing in the same place as before, without moving an inch, his face as cold as before. Only Zhu Qian moved from behind him to in front of him, his eyes constantly scanning towards Prince Xin's army who were trying to approach.
The Xin Wang army, which rushed to the front, was about to reach Emperor Mingze, but the rebellious soldiers behind them also swung their long swords at the people in front.
The sound of the blade piercing through flesh and blood was not clear, but Pan Jifeng felt that the muffled sound was like thunder, ringing directly in his brain!
He looked around in between his counterattacks, and similar scenes were almost everywhere in the Chongyun Palace.
"Your Highness Prince Xin!" He was so angry that his gums bled and he screamed heartbreakingly, "There are too many traitors!"
Not only were there many traitors, they were also extremely agile. Wearing the same uniform, they would dive into the crowd after killing someone. The entire hall was in chaos. If you were not in a position where you could have a comprehensive view of the situation, you would not be able to find that person at all.
Not to mention being on guard!
Jiang Silin pierced the shoulder blade of the man opposite him with his sword, kicked him away, looked at Jiang Yanchuan with a serious look, and then scanned the hall.
This should be the reason why Jiang Yanchuan can remain so calm.
only……
Those who followed him into the palace today were all his trusted followers who had been with him for several years. It would have been fine if only two or three of them rebelled, but how did Jiang Yanchuan manage to incite so many of his subordinates to rebel without his knowledge? !
How can this group of people accurately identify the enemy and friend while wearing the same uniform? !
The inquiring eyes kept scanning the hall. Suddenly, Jiang Silin's eyes, which had already turned away, suddenly turned back, and his gaze was firmly fixed on a touch of red!
While he kept raising his sword to block the blades coming towards him, he stared at the red.
Finally——
After carefully observing the situation around him, the man suddenly stood up, raised his sword and attacked the soldier beside him who was wearing the same armor as him. After succeeding, he quickly moved away. The whole set of actions happened in a flash, leaving no time for anyone to react!
His sight shifted again, falling on another patch of red within his sight.
After a moment, he took a deep breath and shouted: "There is a red tie on my wrist..."
“Swoosh—”
A long arrow shot towards him at high speed, breaking through the air. Jiang Silin paused, tapped the ground with his toes several times, and dodged it.
He turned around and looked in the direction where the arrow came from.
Jiang Yanchuan, who was standing opposite him, casually passed the longbow behind him, his eyes neither dodging nor evading: "Zhu Qian."
"Alive." Jiang Yanchuan said.
"yes!"
