Chapter 1128 We are acting on behalf of Heaven!
Luo Qinghan: "It's actually a protection for you. If you are kidnapped or assassinated again, the Thousand Machine Guards will be able to rescue you immediately."
Xiao Xixi snorted: "You are quite thoughtful."
Luo Qinghan smiled softly.
He handed the small bag with blue background and floral patterns to Xixi, then leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
"No matter how considerate you are, it's never too much."
Xiao Xixi: "Don't think you can get away with sweet talk. You actually dared to send someone to spy on me. Humph, wait until I finish dealing with Nanyue's affairs, and then I'll settle the score with you when I come back!"
After saying these harsh words, she reached out and grabbed the saddle, lifted her legs and climbed onto the horse's back, sitting firmly in a quick and decisive motion.
Mo Yu shook his head unhappily, but other than that he didn't make any other movements, so he was relatively obedient.
Luo Qinghan stuffed the two bundles into the bags on both sides of the saddle, and helped her straighten the sword on her waist, while giving her instructions.
"Dry food and water are placed over here, and clothes, money, and travel permits are placed over there. Time is short, so this is all we can prepare. Be careful on the road, and don't force yourself when you encounter danger. Protecting yourself is the most important thing."
Although Xiao Xixi pretended to be very cool on the surface, she was actually very reluctant in her heart.
"I see."
Luo Qinghan looked up at the woman sitting on the horse, and his eyes became gentle involuntarily.
"Don't forget our six-month agreement."
Xiao Xixi pursed her lips: "You are so talkative."
Luo Qinghan looked at her steadily and said nothing.
Xiao Xixi looked around to make sure there was no one else around.
She suddenly leaned over and slapped Luo Qinghan hard on the forehead.
Before Luo Qinghan could react, she whipped the horse whip and rode away quickly.
The jet-black cloak was lifted high, like spread wings, ready to take her into the sky at any time.
Luo Qinghan stood there and raised his hand to touch his forehead.
He watched the backs of the man and the horse quickly disappear into the distance.
He looked away only when he could no longer see her. The tenderness in his eyes then faded away completely.
"come out."
Two Thousand Machine Guards jumped down from the roof and landed steadily in front of Luo Qinghan.
They knelt on one knee, waiting for the Emperor's orders.
Luo Qinghan: "Bring the horses here and prepare to go back."
“Here!”
Soon a tall chestnut horse was led over.
Luo Qinghan took a long step and jumped onto the horse swiftly.
He held the reins and turned to look in the direction where Xixi left.
The place was empty and Xixi was no longer visible.
The separation is only temporary and they will meet again soon.
By then, he will be even more powerful.
He would become the brightest sun, shining only for her.
Luo Qinghan withdrew his gaze and waved the whip.
The chestnut horse carried him in the direction he came from.
There is no sun today and the weather is gloomy.
When Luo Qinghan returned to the Taimiao, it began to snow.
Snowflakes fluttered down, landed on his shoulders, and quickly melted into water.
He dismounted, threw the reins to a guard, and strode into the Taimiao.
It was already bright by then.
Everyone in the side hall was waiting anxiously.
They stretched their necks to look outside. Why hasn't His Majesty come back yet?
King Linnan should be the calmest person present.
He was even in a good mood to ask someone to replace the pot of hot tea for him.
He spoke slowly while drinking tea.
"Before I came here, I had already discussed with King Fengyang and King Qingliao. If I haven't returned by dawn, they will send troops to attack the city."
The clan members present all changed their expressions when they heard this.
Just then, a low and cold voice came in.
"Does your uncle really think that he can break into the city gate with only 30,000 soldiers?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the young emperor step over the threshold and walk in against the light.
Everyone stood up and bowed to the emperor.
King Linnan was the last one to stand up.
He bowed slowly, with a meaningful smile on his chubby white face.
"Thirty thousand soldiers are certainly not enough, so we still have 130,000 soldiers behind us. They are already on their way to Shengjing. Calculating the time, they will arrive in Shengjing tonight."
All the clan members were horrified.
Even if all the troops in Shengjing City were gathered together, there would only be 120,000 soldiers.
The other side had 160,000 soldiers and horses.
If a fight really breaks out, the other side will definitely have the advantage.
Luo Qinghan's face darkened: "Are you planning to rebel?"
King Linnan spoke slowly.
"No, we were asked by the Empress Dowager to seek justice for the late Emperor.
As long as Your Majesty can hand over the real murderer of the late emperor, we will withdraw our troops.
But seeing that His Majesty returned empty-handed, he probably was unwilling to hand over the person.
It seems that the Empress Dowager's guess was correct.
Your Majesty is the mastermind behind the murder of the late emperor.
Killing one's father and one's king is a crime worthy of death.
We are acting on behalf of Heaven!"
Luo Qinghan strode towards him: "What a great man who acts on behalf of heaven!"
The moment he finished speaking, he suddenly drew the sword from his waist.
The sharp sword blade drew a cold arc in the air.
"It's a pity that you don't have the qualifications."
King Linnan felt a chill on his neck.
Blood flowed out continuously from the wound on his neck.
The front of his clothes was dyed red.
He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, his pupils trembling violently.
“You, you actually…”
He never expected that the emperor would actually kill someone.
Everyone else present was also shocked by this sudden change.
Everyone stepped back, their eyes filled with fear.
King Linnan's body shook twice, but he couldn't hold on any longer and fell down weakly.
Blood continued to gushed out like a spring, gathering into a pool of blood under him.
He opened his eyes wide, staring at Luo Qinghan, his body twitching constantly.
There was deathly silence in the side hall.
After a long time, Duke Changguo asked in a trembling voice.
"Your Majesty, how did you kill him?"
Luo Qinghan asked coldly, "Shouldn't a traitor be killed?"
Duke Changguo shuddered at his cold gaze and shrank back subconsciously.
Someone nearby said cautiously, "Of course the traitors deserve to die, but King Qing Liao and King Feng Yang are still waiting outside the city with a covetous look in their eyes. If they don't wait for King Lin Nan to show up, they will definitely send troops to attack the city."
Luo Qinghan: "If you want to fight, then let's fight. We have 120,000 soldiers and horses, so why should we be afraid of the mere 30,000 soldiers and horses outside the city?"
Duke Changguo spoke with difficulty: "But they still have 130,000 soldiers on their way, and they will be outside the city tonight."
Luo Qinghan: "Then kill King Qing Liao and King Feng Yang before the 130,000 soldiers and horses get here."
Catch the leader first.
Kill the three leaders first, and the remaining troops will be leaderless, and defeat is inevitable sooner or later.
