Chapter 793: Emperor?

Master Liu Song is dead?!

The top gatekeeper of the Great Celestial Phenomenon, who was said to have a special move that could rival the immortals on earth, is dead?
Lin Qing didn't even move his hands, he was just a groom, but he killed Master Liu Song in the battle?

Yang Shenxing's heart sank as he watched the disabled swordsman who had landed three feet in front of him and slowly stood up. He knew that Lin Qing was very strong, but he didn't expect him to be this strong. Now that Master Liu Song was dead, who could stop Lin Qing from using the secret technique of sonic waves to massacre the city?

Chu Lushan, who was several miles away from the South Gate battlefield, also saw this scene. He clamped his legs tightly around the horse under his crotch, the fat on his face trembled, and his bulging eyes stared at the horizon. Two months ago, Li Yishan had someone throw a piece of paper in his face, saying that if Lin Qing hadn't killed Xu Xiao's adopted sons and left only him, he would have no one else to use, and he would definitely be sentenced to death by being torn apart by a chariot.

After reading the contents on the paper, he discovered that the groom, Old Xu, who killed Li Yufu, defeated Gu Jiantang, and chopped Xu Longxiang into a human pig, was actually the father-in-law of a woman he had breastfed. If it weren't for him, Old Xu would never have hated the Beiliang Xu family so much.

Moreover, according to the news sent back by various parties, it seems that the horseman's swordsmanship is so powerful because of hatred and murderous intent. In other words, the third killer star under Lin Qing was created by him - the first killer star is the demon monk, and the second killer star is the white ape.

"Lin Qing..."

Chu Lushan ground his yellow teeth, making a rattling sound.

On the other side, Old Xu raised the broken sword of Su Wang in his hand, and looked up at his expressionless master in the sky. He felt that his master had not lied to him. The level of Master Liu Song, the gatekeeper of Tai'an City, was not much different from that of Gu Jiantang. The last time at Longhu Mountain, the result of that battle was that he was slightly injured and Gu Jiantang was seriously injured. He was more skilled, but this time the result was that he lived and Master Liu Song died.

The difference is that he has comprehended a new celestial secret art, Po Jun.

A few months ago, they left Yangchun City and went south along the Guangling River. On the way, they were blocked by the Beikui Army of Guangling King Zhao Yi. His master had demonstrated in front of him the secret technique of using the golden energy and murderous intent between heaven and earth to transform into sword intent to hurt the enemy. Just as he was carefully comprehension, he was disrupted by the monk Longshu from Liangchan Temple, and thus missed the opportunity. At the same time, he angered his master, so that the two monks of Liangchan Temple were both trained into corpse puppets.

After the battles at Longhu Mountain and Wudi City, he, who had poor aptitude, did not rely on sudden enlightenment, but on summarizing combat experience, and slowly figured out a set of great celestial secret arts derived from the secret art of turning all things into swords. Although he could not utilize all forms of gold and murderous intent between heaven and earth, but in this battlefield environment where murderous intent was surging, the power increase was not to be underestimated.

Finger-pointing secret art, cutting the moon, celestial secret art, black fire, great celestial secret art, breaking the army.

Outsiders all thought that he was a celestial swordsman who was trying to speed up his career, but the fact was just the opposite. He was a great celestial warrior who had come one step at a time.

thump...

The sound of a bell spread across the battlefield and spread to Tai'an City.

The soldiers below finally pulled themselves away from the cruel reality of Master Liu Song's death and looked up at the sky. Yang Shenxing was horrified, thinking that he was going to do something big, so he didn't even bother to guard against the groom who was just three feet away, and hurriedly raised his hand to signal.

Tens of thousands of cavalrymen on both wings raised their crossbows and aimed at the demon in the sky. The crossbows on the city walls were already fully pulled, waiting for Lu Shengxiang to give the order to shoot. However, when the captain who sent the order looked over, he found that the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, who was supposed to be paying attention to the battlefield, had turned his attention to the city. Faintly, one could hear the sound of hurried horse hooves galloping out of the inner city, followed by the creaking sound of a door opening.

This is...what happened?
Soon, the commotion spread to the battlefield outside the South Gate. A voice called "General Yang, wait a minute" was heard, and a monk in a black robe rode out on horseback with an anxious look on his face.

Someone in the back recognized the monk's identity and exclaimed, "The Imperial Master is here," and quickly made way for him.

Yang Shenxing rode his horse to greet him: "Why is the Imperial Master so anxious? What happened?"

Yang Taisui urged his horse over, approached Yang Shenxing, and whispered a few words. After hearing this, the latter's face changed drastically: "This... How is it possible?"

"That's what happened." After saying that, he took out an imperial edict and handed it to Yang Shenxing, then ignored him, urged his horse forward, walked in front of Old Xu, looked at Chu Pingsheng coldly and said, "Mr. Lin, I am Yang Taisui, the Liyang State Master. Can I have a chat with you?"

After a few breaths, the big bronze bell slowly disappeared. Chu Pingsheng took a step forward and reappeared next to Old Xu.

Yang Taisui quickly dismounted to greet him. Chu Pingsheng said indifferently, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Lin, to be honest, a big event happened in Tai'an City."

"What's the big deal?" Chu Pingsheng still had that cold expression.

Yang Taisui said, "Now that Tai'an City's military forces are all in the South City, the Imperial Palace is unguarded. The remnants of Zhang Julu joined forces with the Qigong practitioners of the Imperial Observatory and took advantage of the chaos to launch a coup under your name. They broke into the Tian'an Palace and killed the emperor, and then went to the East Palace and killed the Crown Prince Zhao Zhuan and the Empress who was with the Crown Prince."

"What did you say?"

Zhao Fengya broke through the curtain of the carriage, and because she was in too much of a hurry, she fell off the shaft and fell heavily to the ground. She did not bother to cry out in pain, but stumbled to Yang Taisui and grabbed his wrist tightly: "What did you say? Father, mother, and the crown prince... they... they..."

Yang Taisui nodded seriously.

Zhao Fengya was unable to speak any more. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face. She sat there for more than ten breaths, then suddenly hugged Chu Pingsheng's legs and punched him again and again with her fists: "Didn't you say you would give them a chance to live? Why... why... did you do this?"

"Why!"

She opened her mouth and bit down hard.

Chu Pingsheng did not push her away: "If I really killed him, do you think Yang Taisui would rush to the front of the two armies to have a chat?"

Zhao Fengya was stunned for a moment, then slowly loosened her mouth that was biting his leg, and got up from the ground with the help of the green ants who arrived later.

"Isn't this your strategy of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west?"

"What a joke! Do I need to play tricks with them?"

Yang Taisui's face didn't look very good.

"That's what the Emperor said."

"emperor?"

Zhao Fengya was puzzled and said, "Aren't you talking about Father and the Crown Prince..."

"Yes, the emperor, empress, crown prince, and two highnesses all died in the riots, but a prince who was not in the family tree found the old immortal who was tied to the royal family's destiny and asked him to suppress the rebellion in the imperial city. Until this critical moment, the prince has ascended the throne with the support of the old immortal, the King of Huainan, the King of Liaodong, and several royal relatives. It was the new emperor who asked me to come to the South Gate battlefield to stop the war. Your Majesty said that he had met Master Lin several times. I believe that the riots in the city were definitely not caused by Master Lin. Someone committed crimes under his banner. Now the old immortal is in charge of Tian'an Hall. The emperor has ordered Han Diao Si to investigate the mastermind behind this case. I believe there will be results soon."

A prince who is not in the family tree?

Zhao Fengya frowned and thought about this question.

Perhaps seeing her doubts, and also to explain to Chu Pingsheng, Yang Taisui said: "Princess, you know His Majesty's name... Zhao Kai."

Chu Pingsheng said: "Zhao Kai? The Zhao Kai from Shangyin Academy? Is he the new emperor of Liyang Dynasty?"

"That's right." Yang Taisui said, "In fact, Zhao Kai is the offspring of the late emperor when he was young and went on a private visit with a commoner girl. Because of his family background, he was only raised in the palace and was not recorded in the family tree. Later, the late emperor sent him to Shangyin Academy, hoping that he could learn strategies for governing the country and benefiting the people. It was also a form of protection. I remember that the princess had a close relationship with Your Majesty, so you should know that what I said is true."

Chu Pingsheng glanced at her, and Zhao Fengya shuddered: "I... I just didn't tell him because I was afraid that you would... kill him. As for your matter... I never said a word to him... more."

"Haha, Zhao Kai, he really can pretend to be a grandson." Chu Pingsheng said cooperatively.

call out……

Just at this moment, a figure shot down from the top of the city wall, passed directly over the heads of Yang Shenxing and several generals, and landed in front of Yang Taisui. The two of them whispered a few words.

"Let me introduce you. This is the guard beside the late emperor, Han Xuansheng, Han Diaosi."

Chu Pingsheng nodded and said nothing.

Yang Taisui said: "You can talk to him yourself."

Han Diaosi put down the hood of his cloak, bowed to Princess Suizhu, and then said, "According to the confession of the Qigong cultivators of the Imperial Observatory who were causing chaos in the imperial city, the mastermind behind the palace coup was Yuan Benxi, the manager of the secret spy organization Zhao Gou. Because Master Lin was approaching the city, Yuan Benxi realized that the late emperor intended to send the crown prince to contact Master Lin under the pretext of visiting Princess Suizhu. Fearing that he would be purged, he secretly ordered the assassins he had raised for many years to launch a rebellion in the name of Zhang Julu and Master Lin at a critical moment, slaughtering members of the royal family wantonly, in an attempt to intensify the situation and fish in troubled waters."

Perhaps because he was afraid that Zhao Fengya and Green Ant would not understand, he added: "After the battle of Dantong Pass, Qi Jiajie came back and reported to Your Majesty that Master Lin asked him to tell him that if Zhao Gou's people dared to attack Huanggua's parents, Tai'an City and 200,000 imperial guards would be buried with them. This shows Master Lin's attitude towards Zhao Gou. Yuan Benxi, as the mastermind who used Huanggua's parents, has been instigating Your Majesty to fight back against Master Lin's actions in a tough manner, intensifying the conflict between the two sides. Imagine that Your Majesty really wants to ease the relationship with Master Lin. Yuan Benxi is afraid that he will be sentenced to death like Zhang Zaifu, whom he killed. Therefore, in order to protect himself, he chose to take risks and collude with the Qigong masters of the Imperial Observatory to launch a coup and cause chaos in the palace. Fortunately, the old god who protects the country took action at your brother's request and crushed Yuan Benxi's conspiracy in one fell swoop."

Yang Shenxing broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. He never expected that while he and Lu Shengxiang were fighting Lin Qing at the front with soldiers who were ready to die, such a thing would happen in the imperial city.

This Yuan Benxi... is damnable!

Seeing Green Ant get off the car to consult, Huanggua was also ready to get off, but she was worried that doing so would endanger her parents. After hearing what Han Diaosi said, she was suddenly very excited. When passing Dantong Pass, she saw the miserable situation of the guarding troops. Everyone knew that it was Lin Qing who did it, but she never thought that he made such a big move just to prevent the court from touching her parents.

Even the soldiers on both wings who were on standby knew that something big must have happened, but they didn't know what exactly happened.

Zhao Fengya, who was held in the arms of Green Ant, looked distraught and muttered to herself: "My father is dead, my mother is dead, my brother the crown prince is dead, Zhao Kai... the new emperor..."

"Yes, Princess, please accept my condolences." Han Diaosi said to Chu Pingsheng, "Your Majesty asked me to come here for two purposes. One is to explain the ins and outs of the rebellion in the palace, and the other is to invite Master Lin to come into the city for a chat."

Chu Pingsheng said: "Okay, lead the way."

After saying this, she jumped lightly onto Xuanyuan Qingfeng's mount. She felt her body sink and her back warm, and then she was hugged into the arms of that guy in public. She felt very uncomfortable.

"You...let me go."

"Is this play good?"

Is it good? Of course it is good. Is there anything better than this drama?
Xuanyuan Qingfeng glared at him fiercely.

"There are better ones to watch. If you want to continue watching, be good. Otherwise, if you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to watch a big show for many years to come."

Xuanyuan Qingfeng compromised and let him hold her in his arms, and they rode forward together.

Green Ant helped Zhao Fengya into the carriage. Old Xu whipped the horse again, shouted "Gee", and followed his master towards the open south gate of Tai'an City.

At this time, a white rainbow shot out from the distance and landed on the roof of the third carriage. Huang Fangfo looked up and saw a monk with blood-stained white clothes and a butcher knife in his hand. He didn't dare to say a word and went back to concentrate on driving.

Fan Xiaochai, the female groom who had been slacking off in the carriage of the second carriage, also came out and urged the yellow horse to follow her master.

Yang Shenxing and his personal guards and lieutenant generals separated to the left and right and gave way silently.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The heavily armored cavalry around the battlefield looked at each other, looked at the bows and crossbows in their hands, and then looked at Master Liu Song who fell from the sky to the ground and died, all in confusion.

What do you call this? After fighting for a long time, the Tai'an City side even lost the life of Lord Liu, who was half a step away from becoming a land immortal. The situation was so tense that the next breath was the rhythm of the bells and the city was slaughtered. As a result, a monk came, and then a eunuch came. A few people whispered and said something, and then welcomed the enemy into Tai'an City? So should this war still be fought? What happened in the city?
……

Chu Pingsheng's carriage entered Tai'an City.

He killed so many people in Dantong Pass, but no one stopped him to throw vegetable leaves and eggs at him along the way, and there was not even a sound of shouting or cursing. It was so quiet that the quiet Wang Chudong wondered whether Zhao Kai, the new emperor who understood Lin Qing's style, had evacuated everyone on the street.

There was a gate between the imperial city and the inner city, called Tai'an Gate. Civil and military officials had to dismount and unsheathe their swords before entering the palace on foot. Chu Pingsheng and his party naturally didn't have to do that. Yang Taisui just waved his hand, and the imperial guards opened the middle gate to let them in. The standard was so high that Xuanyuan Qingfeng was shocked.

Of course, the higher the status of Lin Qing's entry into the city, the more humble the new emperor's attitude will be. This is beyond doubt.

The carriage entered the palace city, but did not go straight to the Taiji Hall, but went east. When it was about to reach Dong'an Gate, Han Diao Si called out "Your Majesty" from afar. Chu Pingsheng, who had been taking advantage of Xuanyuan Qingfeng, looked up and saw Zhao Kai standing in front of him in a bright yellow dragon robe, followed by two second-rank junior master eunuchs, and of course, the golden armor of the Tianxiang realm was also there.

"Hahaha……"

He couldn't help laughing, and Han Diaosi and Yang Taisui turned around together.

Xuanyuan Qingfeng asked: "What are you laughing at?"

"I laughed at how funny he looked in the dragon robe. In comparison, he looked better in the black coat and cape."

Yang Taisui: “…”

Han Diaosi narrowed his eyes.

Zhao Kai didn't care about his teasing at all, and said with a fist: "Brother Lin, long time no see."

Chu Pingsheng got off his horse and continued to tease as he walked, "Tsk tsk tsk, last time we met you were still a scholar from Jixia, but this time you're the new emperor of Liyang?"

PS: There are many things to do at the end of the year, please forgive me, this is the only chapter today, I will make up for the rest tomorrow
