It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 533: Fight in front of the Buddha

"Yang Xianlian stole my things, so I'm here to look for lost items." Yang Xianrong glanced at Liu Cong, not minding his angry look at all, "Now that the lost items have been found, I can leave."

After hearing what she said, Zhang Heng and several monks changed their formation and prepared to make way for Yang Xianrong.

However, except for Liu Yao, the other two people had no intention of letting Yang Xianrong go. In particular, Sima Chi glared at Yang Xianrong and said, "Queen Hui, this imperial seal is a treasure of the Great Jin Dynasty. Where are you going to take it?"

"Should I tell you? This is what the late emperor left for me." Yang Xianrong was too lazy to pretend at this moment, and didn't take him seriously at all, "This thing is not yours either."

"I am the emperor of the Great Jin!" Sima Chi's voice became much louder.

"So what?" Yang Xianrong became more and more impatient, "How many days can you still defend the Great Jin?"

"What are you talking about? Have you already collaborated with Liu Cong and others? Are you going to destroy my kingdom?" Sima Chi's voice became louder, causing the red-clothed guards outside the hall to look inside and slowly approach.

"Destroyed your kingdom?" Yang Xianrong sneered, "You think too highly of me. I really don't have that much ability. You Sima family members fought for power and destroyed such a great foundation. Don't you want to think about who caused the current chaos?"

"How dare you!" Sima Chi yelled, and the red-clad guards immediately rushed in. But Zhang Heng and his men reacted faster, after all, they were all former imperial guards, and their ranks were very high. Liu Yao also stood beside Yang Xianrong, stretching out his arms to protect her behind him.

"Hahahahaha, you still say that you didn't collude with the Liu family to overthrow my kingdom? Look at these men, each of them fell under your skirt... You bastard! I was blind to like you!" Sima Chi cursed so badly that Yang Xianrong's face changed, but before she could get angry, Liu Yao had already punched Sima Chi in the face. Sima Chi lost his balance and fell backwards.

Seeing this, the red-clad guards all rushed in at once.

Liu Cong's men were not pushovers either. When they saw them fighting, they immediately followed suit, waving their swords... A bloody close-range melee broke out in the main hall of Lingshan Temple. Before they could even blink, many people had fallen in a pool of blood, accompanied by roars and howls of pain.

After Liu Yao beat the man, he didn't care about anything else. He used his body to protect Yang Xianrong and hid behind the Buddha statue. Zhang Heng and his men didn't want to join the melee, so they also hid behind the Buddha statue. The real monks of Lingshan Temple also quickly hid here.

As a result, there was only a small space behind the Buddha statue, so Liu Yao had to hug Yang Xianrong tightly to prevent her from being squeezed by the crowd.

Yang Xianrong felt very awkward and couldn't help but push him away. Liu Yao thought she was scared, so he hugged her tighter and whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The hot air blew into Yang Xianrong's ears, making her feel shy and itchy, and she wanted to push him away even more.

"Don't move, don't move. Let them fight first." Liu Yao saw Yang Xianrong's embarrassed look, and actually felt a little happy in his heart.

"Girl, why don't we go out the back door first?" Zhang Heng had been guarding Yang Xianrong, and seeing her like this, he knew he couldn't say much, but he couldn't help but help her out.

"Okay." Yang Xianrong turned her head just as Zhang Heng said this and looked at the corner door behind the Buddha statue. "No, why is there black smoke?"

"Did Sima Chi set the fire? How could he be so vicious!" Zhang Heng also saw the black smoke. Thinking of the people who just shouted "fire", he was afraid that the fire had spread. "Then we can't go through the corner gate. We have to go out through the main gate."

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!" Liang Fen and other ministers of the Jin Dynasty shouted outside the hall. They didn't dare to enter the hall, so it was safer to stand outside. Liang Fen saw Yang Xianrong was about to leave, and suddenly shouted: "Queen Hui, do you know that Sima Jing is still in the Luoyang Palace?" Hearing this, Yang Xianrong was shocked.

Seeing that Yang Xianrong had noticed him, Liang Fen chuckled, "The little princess is naturally doing well. The emperor treats her like his own daughter. If anything happens to the emperor, the princess will need to be buried with him. Queen Hui must know the rules of the Great Jin Dynasty, right?"

"Are you threatening me?" Yang Xianrong looked at him with a frown.

"I wouldn't dare, I'm just telling you." Liang Fen's fake smile looked full of calculation.

Yang Xianrong clenched her fists. She really didn't expect this matter to turn out like this, especially since Sima Chi was also here.

"So, what do you want to do?" Liu Yao saw Yang Xianrong's anger, so he asked for her.

"It's nothing, actually. Just hand over the imperial seal and escort the emperor back to the Luoyang Palace." Liang Fen also showed an extremely respectful look, "The matter of Queen Hui leaving the palace without permission can be ignored, and the matter of Commander Zhang can also be ignored."

"Haha, you are really good at scheming." Yang Xianrong sneered, "Do you think I will agree?"

"It doesn't matter actually, but the little princess may have to suffer." Liang Fen looked at her own red-clad guards in the hall. They were indeed not as brave and good at fighting as Liu Cong's Huns. They were quickly beaten back to the corner. If they didn't stop, these people would probably lose their lives.

But how could Yang Xianrong possibly ask Liu Cong's men to stop?

Liu Yao had already walked out of the hall with Yang Xianrong in his arms. After he stood firm with Yang Xianrong in his arms, he shouted to the people in the hall, "Stop it!"

His voice was so loud and resonant in his chest that people standing next to him felt their ears ringing.

Yang Xianrong naturally couldn't stand such a loud volume and wanted to cover her ears with her hands. But her hands were held by Liu Yao and she couldn't move. Liu Yao felt her abnormality and realized that his voice was too loud. He quickly covered Yang Xianrong's ears with his own hands and even pulled her into his arms, saying, "Third sister, don't be afraid. I'm afraid they can't hear me if my voice is too low. Let's ask them to stop and make things clear."

It made so much sense that Yang Xianrong could only nod.

Zhang Heng and the others who were standing behind her were stunned, thinking that this seemed to be right.

Only Xu Henian stood not far away, looking at them, as if thinking about something.

This time he didn't hold a whisk, but wore a clean Taoist robe and combed his hair very neatly. His eyes stayed on Sima Chi, and he was still calculating something with his fingers, his face becoming more and more solemn.

There is one more chapter today, which will be updated later.

Please forgive me.
