Chapter 174: The Great Rebellion is Suppressed

Chapter 174: The Great Rebellion is Suppressed
Ziwei Mountain.

A figure fell down with a bang.

"Martial Saint!"

"Marshal Meng?!"

Xia Cong and others looked at the figure holding a spear and didn't understand what was going on.

"Get out of my way!"

Meng Quji went straight to the Minister of War Gao Bo in the crowd.

He did not kill anyone who tried to stop him, but simply blasted them all away with a wave of his hand.

"General Meng?"

Gao Bo, the Minister of War, frowned: "Don't worry about me! If you have a chance, go directly to the bedroom!"

"Master Gao!"

Meng Quji grabbed him by the collar: "You lied to me?!"

"You, General Meng...what do you mean by that?"

Gao Bo was puzzled and asked, "When have I ever lied to you?"

"Yunzhou!"

Meng Quji asked sharply, "Did you know what they did at the time, but didn't stop them? You'd better tell the truth!"

"General Meng...I..."

Gao Bo didn't dare to look directly at them, and finally said: "When I knew it, it was too late. Even if I tried to stop them, I could only save some of the border soldiers."

“So, you really do know!”

Meng Quji emphasized the key point: "But I didn't try to stop him!"

"That's right! Since the death of one thousand people is death, and the death of ten thousand people is also death, let's just let the north cause chaos. This will be more beneficial to us! Now, we have evidence of their crimes in our hands!"

Gao Bo said: "After the deed is done, the evidence will be made public, and the 'cleansing of the emperor's court' will be justified. We will be the army of justice, not traitors!"

"The death of a thousand people is death, and the death of ten thousand people is also death..."

Meng Quji repeated the words of the Minister of War several times, and couldn't help but sneer, until his eyes turned bloodshot and he asked through gritted teeth: "In the eyes of Mr. Gao, are our brothers at the border just a number?!"

"..."

Gao Bo was stunned.

He didn't seem to realize that there was anything wrong with what he said.

"Gao Bo! Why are you playing with our lives while you fight in the court? We, we are fighting for you at the front!"

Meng Quji was somewhat emotionally broken.

He almost shouted, "I, Meng Ergou, don't understand the meaning of justice, nor can I say anything for the sake of the people. I only know that my brothers have entrusted their lives to you. Even if you don't help me, you can't stab me in the back!"

"As for that?!"

Gao Bo couldn't understand at all: "General Meng, why are you throwing tantrums at me?"

"Is it really that important? What a serious question..."

Meng Quji sneered and slowly loosened his hand: "You are all the same. If that's the case, who wins doesn't matter. What's the point of me working for someone?"

"You are crazy!"

Gao Bo reminded him, "General Meng, you are also an expert in military strategy. Don't you understand that there is no way out now? Go to the palace quickly. If you succeed, you will be the first hero! On the contrary, if you fail, both of us will lose our heads!

"Or are you going to turn against us and help Yan Liang and the others now?
"You have to choose one of the two sides!"

"You have to choose one?"

Meng Quji's sneer suddenly turned into a grim smile: "What if I don't choose anyone?"

"When has it been?"

Gao Bo advised: "General Meng, do you still think you can get away?"

"I didn't say anything. Do you want to withdraw?"

"What do you mean?"

Before Gao Bo could ask clearly, a gust of wind exploded in front of him, causing his official hat to fly up and his black hair to become messy. When he opened his eyes again, Meng Quji was already a hundred feet away.

He did not think about escaping down the mountain, but went straight to Ziwei Palace.

"Rumble--"

It was at this time.

The entire Ziwei Mountain began to tremble violently, with such a great magnitude that countless trees fell to the ground, the slopes collapsed and slid, and even huge cracks continued to appear on the stone road, as if a natural disaster had befallen and the entire Ziwei Mountain was about to collapse.

"What, what's going on?!"

"..."

A terrifying vision.

As a result, even the Zhendong Army and Jinwu Guards who were in the melee were forced to stop.

……

Bedroom.

"Please let me die, father!"

After saying this.

The prince has completely transformed into another person

His figure seemed illusory, and the whole person was mixed in the purple and red light. With a wave of his hands, a long sword made of the power of incense condensed out of thin air in front of him. Holding the long sword, he slowly walked towards the emperor.

"W-What are you going to do?!"

On the futon.

Emperor Longqing, who was sitting cross-legged, finally began to show emotions on his face. His pupils changed countless times in an instant, and all kinds of feelings merged into one, turning into an indescribable complexity: "My most filial son, you want to kill the emperor and my father?!"

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

Huang Hong's true energy gathered on his palm, forming a deep-sea whirlpool, and slammed towards the prince who was like a god or a devil. The latter raised his hand and swung a sword, a purple light flashed, and his true energy was broken.

He floated out, spinning, and finally hit the pillar heavily. Only after he landed on the ground could one see a blood mark running from his forehead to his body. If it weren't for the protective true qi, he would have been split in half on the spot!

even so.

He did not give up either. He vomited blood and threw out the imperial seal.

The imperial seal of the state trembled, as if a demon-suppressing pagoda was falling down towards the old and frail Prince.

But this time.

The jade seal was no longer as invincible as before. After colliding with the power of incense, it fell into a stalemate and soon could not suppress the opponent. After several collisions, it lost control, fell to the ground with a "bang", and then rolled in front of the emperor.

Lu Ji took action in time, but was also beaten back several times and had no way to defeat the opponent.

"Your Majesty, ahem..."

Huang Hong shouted: "Your Majesty, fight back!"

"I won't fight back."

Emperor Longqing remained motionless: "If my son wants to kill me, let him do it. I will die. I will never kill my descendants anyway."

"His Majesty!"

Huang Hong understood.

Even among the common people, “family disgrace should not be made public”, let alone the royal family.

It is a great shame for a son to kill his father.

If my father fights back, it will probably bring disgrace to the Cao family.

"Come on! Kill me and you can take this seat!"

Emperor Longqing was ready to be killed: "Even if you are wrong, the spirits of our ancestors will punish you in the future!"

This scene.

This was somewhat unexpected for everyone present.

Things have gotten to this point, and the emperor still doesn't dare to take action?

"For the sake of the royal family's reputation, you are really tolerant."

Outside the palace.

The earthquake continues.

Chen Sanshi squatted on the shaking tree branch and saw the scene inside clearly.

The prince hid it very well.

Even he didn't notice.

Through the art of observing qi, it can be clearly confirmed that this old man is just a normal person.

In other words.

The magical power of the Incense God Cult can enable an ordinary person to quickly possess such a level of combat power in a short period of time. The reason why they sacrifice living people is probably for this.

From the incident to now.

In fact, it only took half an hour.

He was not in a hurry and continued to observe secretly.

"Rust~"

At this time.

He noticed that another group of people appeared in the corner of the square.

"It's so lively."

Cao Zhi hid behind a rock and looked into the hall. "It seems that even without my help, this Ziwei Fengshan ceremony will not be quiet. Tell me, what tricks did the Xianghuo Shen Cult use to make my elder brother, who is a sick child, so bad?"

"According to the latest news, it seems to be some kind of orthodox Shinto and evil Shinto."

Zhang Zhao said: "When do we start?"

"No hurry, wait a little longer, it's not something we can get involved in right now."

While talking.

The ground shook more violently.

"What?!"

Cao Zhi supported himself on the ground with one hand and asked, "What's going on in the cave? They haven't come back yet?"

"Little Lord!"

"Oh no!"

"..."

The two surviving disciples of Xunxian Tower staggered back.

"Where is the old eunuch?"

Cao Zhi noticed something was wrong: "Why are there only two of you left? What happened?"

"Zhang Laizi, it's Zhang Laizi!"

The disciples of Xunxian Tower said with fear on their faces: "He used heavenly fire to burn all of Lao Gonggong and others to death, and then took away all of Taizu's relics!"

Cao Zhi was a little unconvinced: "Where did such a powerful cultivator appear?"

……

"Grandpa Huang!"

Cao Fan looked at his grandfather in Taoist robes and felt a little sorry for him: "Father has absolutely no intention of killing you. He is like this because he lost control after borrowing divine power. It's not too late for Grandpa Huang to abdicate now!"

Hear the words.

Emperor Longqing immediately looked at the black-robed monk and said, "Evil monk, what did you do to my son?"

"Your Highness is the leader of my Incense God Sect!"

The black-robed monk supported his body with his Zen staff: "For the sake of the people of the world, he would rather give up the right way of God and practice the evil way of God. Even so, Your Highness did not make large-scale sacrifices to increase his lifespan, otherwise, why would he be so weak and sickly!

"Your Highness has done so much for the country and the people, Your Majesty is still not afraid to abdicate out of shame!"

The words behind.

All were ignored.

Emperor Longqing slowly raised his head, his face gradually showing a majestic aura. He didn't say a word, but the suffocating feeling intensified: "I was saying that my son has always been filial, how could he suddenly become a different person and do such a rebellious thing? It turns out...

"It's you monsters who are interfering!
"First you stirred up trouble in the court, and then you used magic to control my son. You evil people should be killed and your crimes should be punished."

A few words.

Everything that happened tonight changed from a coup to a cult rebellion.

No matter what happens next.

All of these have saved the royal family's reputation.

"..."

Chen Sanshi said in his heart.

The royal family is really troublesome. Whenever they take action, they always come up with a bunch of messed up excuses.

"Emperor!"

The Crown Prince's voice was completely changed into that of another person, as if it came from the underworld. He said contemptuously, "Why don't you kowtow to me? Perhaps I can leave you with an intact corpse."

"What a monster."

Emperor Longqing looked at him and said calmly, "Tell me your name."

"evildoer?"

The prince sneered, unable to distinguish between men and women: "I am a god, and you are just an ordinary emperor. You have cultivated some superficial immortal skills, and you dare to speak so arrogantly?

"His Majesty!"

Huang Hong shouted: "Please ask the Emperor Wanshou to help subdue the demon and save His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"I have been practicing Taoism for more than forty years, and I have never taken action."

Emperor Longqing said leisurely: "Today, it is time to try out my skills."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had been a hundred steps away, had somehow come to the front of him, and the sword in his hand, which was transformed from the power of incense, was about to chop directly on the old Taoist's head.

Emperor Longqing finally took action.

He swung the whisk on his arm violently, and a dazzling golden light burst out. It was obviously a whisk with a dust tail, but with the blessing of the golden light, it was able to wrestle with the sword edge that was flowing with purple light.

A blow to the hand.

The old emperor in a Taoist robe floated backwards and landed steadily on the ground.

The prince also steadied his body in the air.

"Wow—"

Emperor Longqing waved his whisk again.

this time.

Curtains fell from the top of the hall, just covering his and the prince's figures, so that no one else could witness the subsequent fight. They could only hear the loud rumbling sounds and flashing lights.

obviously.

The curtain had been prepared long ago.

At this point, Emperor Longqing still had to hide his strength from everyone.

But judging from Chen Sanshi's [Qi-Observation Technique].

The concentration of "Qi" in the two men's bodies is almost the same. If they continue to fight like this, it will be difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time, but I'm afraid they haven't used their trump cards yet.

Before the curtain.

Lu Ji and others also started fighting again, launching the second round of fighting between high-level warriors. With the black curtain as the dividing line, half of the palace was damaged beyond recognition. It was feared that it would be completely scrapped after this battle.

They fought from inside the temple to outside.

"Om-"

From the incense burner that had previously been used to initiate the Crown Prince, purple incense once again gushed out, like a meteor shower falling from the sky, landing on the bodies of the followers of the Incense God Cult.

Originally, the Xianghuo Shen Sect, which had been at a disadvantage, began to hold on tenaciously after receiving the blessing of divine power.

Wait until the mysterious energy in the incense burner is exhausted.

The incense burner itself cracked inch by inch, and finally exploded, tearing through the curtain and going to help the prince, causing thunder and strong winds. The entire palace was shaking and burning with flames.

After a few breaths.

The vibrations in Ziwei Mountain, which had been in turmoil for a long time, reached a new level.

The trees where Chen Sanshi was hiding began to tilt rapidly until they fell to the ground completely, and he had to find another hiding place.

in his eyes.

In the cave in the southeast direction, a clear air rose into the sky, like a colorless rainbow, in an arch shape, connected to the bedroom, like a huge rope pulling the other end.

Until there was a noise inside the bedroom, the "rope" began to shrink and was about to put something back into the bag. Along with the sound of mountains collapsing and the earth cracking, a ray of golden light burst out from the mountain, and a dragon roar resounded through the sky.

"What, what is this?!"

"dragon!"

"Real dragon!"

"Look!"

"A real dragon has appeared!"

"..."

Inside and outside of Ziwei Mountain.

Whether it was the Zhendong Army, the Jinwu Guards or the eunuchs, at this moment they all looked up towards the sky.

Even the people of Taihu Prefecture noticed this step.

"Is this the Longyuan Sword that Taizu left behind?"

Cao Zhi looked up at the sky: "How sacred was Taizu to leave behind such a treasure!"

"boom--"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the Longyuan Sword lifted up most of the palace and fell into the bedroom.

Golden light flashed and thunder roared.

After a few breaths.

Inside the palace, everything was calm and peaceful.

The curtain that blocked everyone's view was completely turned into dust, and the scene inside reappeared in front of everyone.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was seen standing there with the help of a cane, somewhat hunched over. He had no injuries on his body, but his graying hair was hanging down, making him look ten years older.

Ten steps away.

Emperor Longqing sat cross-legged on a cushion, his hands making seals, looking somewhat weak. In front of him, a long sword that looked like a real dragon was inserted into the ground. It was still emitting a golden light, but had become extremely quiet.

outside the temple.

The fight is coming to an end.

With the help of the unknown mysterious magical power of the incense burner at the end, both sides were basically in a lose-lose situation.

Even Lu Ji was seriously injured and could only hold on with the help of his Fang Tian Hua Ji. It was obvious that his meridians had been damaged. The black-robed monk was still confronting him and no one could leave.

This is the case.

The same thing happened to eunuchs, Fan Tianfa, Changsun Xusheng and others.

Everyone who has the fighting power of a Martial Saint is at the end of his strength.

"The Emperor is injured!"

The black-robed monk was on guard against Lu Ji, and he ignored the blood gushing out of his mouth and said, "Go quickly! Once the old emperor dies, we win!"

He took out the last Buddhist bead from his arms and crushed it directly, creating a small barrier that temporarily trapped Changsun Xusheng, as well as many eunuchs and deadpools from the Imperial Household Department.

"Master Miao Xiang, quickly lead the remaining brothers!"

"..."

In this situation, generals or believers with lower realms are more active.

Because they would not be as hard to determine the winner as those at the Martial Saint level. Some of them would die immediately, while those who survived would not be seriously injured. They quickly gathered more than twenty people and headed straight into the bedroom.

Just as Master Miao Xiang stepped over the threshold, a sharp sound of breaking air suddenly rang in his ears.

He turned around and struck a sword.

It collided with an arrow carrying great force.

"Chirp—"

Almost at the same moment.

Arrows rang out in the sky.

"Black Armor Army, protect the emperor!"

"..."

Everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a young general holding a spear, leading a large group of armored soldiers and charging into the Ziwei Palace.

"Do it quickly!"

Master Miao Xiang ordered two people to block them from behind, and he went straight towards the emperor.

The spears were waving, and after just one encounter, the two believers fell to the ground and died.

"court death!"

Master Miao Xiang was furious and was forced to turn around and fight back. The strong energy on his soft sword mixed with the power of incense and transformed into a poisonous snake, which rushed towards the sea dragon. The friction sound was sharp and piercing.

The venomous snake was clearly biting the gun blade, but Chen Sanshi felt pain in his arm. He staggered back several steps and smashed the wooden door before he could stand firm. Under the heavy blow, his Vajra body kept buzzing. Judging from the Qi in the body of this high-ranking member of the Incense God Sect, his martial arts realm is probably at the entry level of the Mysterious Realm. His cultivation level of the Incense God Sect is unknown, but the refined Mysterious Qi has basically been used up.

That's why.

Only then did Chen Sanshi dare to attack alone.

The opponent's overall strength is just one level higher than his own, so it's perfect to use him as a test.

I have been relying too much on magic recently.

But today's battle proved it.

The martial arts are not weak.

Especially the Martial Saint.

Each of them can go head-to-head with someone who practices magic, and they may not be much inferior to him.

Therefore, before officially embarking on the "immortal path", it is better not to lose sight of the important things.

Fortunately.

He is not unfamiliar with it either.

After three or five rounds, he gradually mastered the characteristics of the opponent's strange swordsmanship, but under the dual assistance of realm suppression and incense power, it seemed very difficult.

In the eyes of outsiders, they were fighting desperately to protect the emperor.

"Ok?"

Emperor Longqing looked at the scene in front of him, his pupils moved slightly, and he even felt a little emotional, thinking in his heart: "Sun Xiangzong was also like this in his past. He got old, but he accepted a good disciple."

"Your Majesty, please leave!"

Chen Sanshi held on until the 30th round.

Under the effect of [Heart of the Kirin], not only is he thoroughly familiar with the opponent's tactics, but he can also easily find flaws.

On the other hand, Master Miao Xiang had used up all the purple mysterious energy in his body and began to fight the enemy purely with martial arts. Soon, even his internal energy could not maintain its full state. He switched from offense to defense and felt that the sky was covered with spears and blades and murderous intent was everywhere.

Open the meridians!

This guy is just an ordinary Tongmai!

He was a Xuanxiang after all, but he was unable to resist.

"flaw!"

During the hard fight, Master Miao Xiang felt more and more stressed. He finally found a loophole in the opponent's spearmanship and stabbed him with his sword without hesitation. His strong energy tore open his shoulder armor and broke his iron body, leaving a bloody hole.

In contrast, he only had a slight scratch on his arm, leaving a small cut. He didn't care much about it at first, but the next moment.

A terrifying force penetrated into the body through the tiny wound and began to wreak havoc, crushing the muscles and then attacking the bones, then continuing to go deeper and deeper, heading towards the vital points.

The real dragon is rampant!

True dragon power!
"Damn it!"

Master Miao Xiang hurriedly used his other hand to seal the acupoints to extinguish the True Dragon Power in his body. At the same time, the spear pierced his heart directly and then began to rotate slowly. His heart was torn to pieces by the cutting of the sharp blade, and more True Dragon Power rushed in.

He could no longer hold the weapon and let the sword slip out of his hand. Even though he used up his last bit of strength to grab the gun, he was unable to stop it at all. He soon exhausted his last bit of strength and died with his head hung.

"Bah-"

Behind you.

Several Xiangshen followers slashed Chen Sanshi's back with their knives like crazy, tearing open his body and leaving bloody wounds.

"What a brave and loyal general!"

The seriously injured eunuch Huang Hong was horrified by what he saw.

"His Majesty!"

Chen Sanshi roared, drew the Zhenyue Sword from his waist, killed the attacker, and then chased after the person who wanted to assassinate His Majesty, fighting bloody battles.

"Kill him for me!"

flank.

Several Jinwu Guard generals who had defected to the prince came to kill them.

"Father, Lord Chen!"

At this time.

The twelfth prince Cao Zhi arrived with a group of Jinyiwei and stopped the Jinwuwei. "Master Chen, take my father away!"

"Your Majesty, leave quickly!"

Chen Sanshi, covered in blood, came to Emperor Longqing and helped him up: "The Black Armor Army is about to attack us. The situation is settled. The rebellion will soon be quelled. Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!"

"Take up the sword."

Emperor Longqing did not refuse.

"Yes!"

"Keng!"

Chen Sanshi picked up the Longyuan Sword and swung it, directly splitting a Jinwu Guard in half with his armor. It can be said that he cut through iron like mud, which is much better than the Zhenyue Sword.

And even when he held it in his hands, he couldn't really control it.

The master is still the emperor.

However, the mysterious energy connecting the emperor and the Longyuan Sword was somewhat agitated.

It seems that the emperor has not yet been able to fully control the sword.

But he still has a lot of spiritual power in his body.

In today's battle, it was obvious that we didn't give our full strength.

In fact.

When Chen Sanshi saw Long Yuan coming out, he knew that the outcome had been decided. The scene of mutual destruction that he wanted to see was impossible to happen, so he quickly called his subordinates to come and protect him.

The emperor has always been able to establish a connection with the Longyuan Sword!
You can see it in the cave!
But why didn’t you go to the cave to get the treasure?

He guessed that either he couldn't sense the specific location before he completely refined it and became the master of the Longyuan Sword, or... he did it on purpose!

Long Yuan was born.

Such a big commotion will definitely be known to the whole world.

In this way, these "rebels" will not jump out.

Those who participated in the coup tonight came from various institutions inside and outside the court. Even if the emperor had the ability to reach the sky, he would not be able to find them one by one, unless...

They jump out on their own!
Before coming to Ziwei Mountain, the emperor had already realized that the prince's party could no longer restrain themselves from rebelling!

All of this, if not predicted, at least prepared for it!
After tonight.

The power that the crown prince has accumulated with great difficulty over the past forty years as regent will be wiped out, and a new situation will be ushered in at the court. In a short period of time, no one will be able to influence the emperor's decision.

He won.

Chen Sanshi protected the emperor all the way from his bedroom to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

This palace coup is beginning to come to an end.

……

"..."

After Meng Quji arrived at the palace, he began to attack indiscriminately, no matter if it was the prince's men or the emperor's men, anyone who blocked his way would be stabbed to death with a spear, and then he went straight to the bedroom.

Since it would be unfair to my brothers if I help either side.

Just don't help either side!

Now that things have come to this, there is no turning back.

Instead of running away, it is better to kill indiscriminately. Even if I die here, it will be considered as revenge for my brothers at the border.

Another figure blocked the way ahead.

"Get out of my way!"

Meng Quji roared, and the Zhangba Snake Spear, wrapped in a cloud-like rolling true energy, blasted forward and collided with a Qinglong Yanyue Sword.

The man holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade flew backwards, and only landed on the ground after several dozen feet.

"Xuan Xiang was able to withstand the blow from the Martial Saint and remain unharmed. You are quite good!"

Meng Quji looked at him carefully, and was startled: "Deng Feng? What are you doing here?"

"Of course, we have to stop General Meng."

Deng Feng glanced in the direction of the bedroom and said, "The situation has been decided. If the general goes over there now, he will probably die in vain."

"so what?!"

Meng Quji said hostilely: "Mr. Deng, if you want to live, don't stop us here!"

Deng Feng did not move aside, but thrust his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade upside down into the ground to show that he had no ill intentions. He said, "General Meng! I heard what you said to Lord Gao earlier.

"You are going crazy now because you don't understand the meaning of living and want to die quickly. Am I right, Deng?"

Meng Quji remained silent.

"To be honest, not long ago, Deng was just like you."

Deng Feng said in a deep voice: "I was confused at that time and didn't know what to do in the future."

"Stop talking nonsense. You surrendered because you were afraid of death. You are not a loyal person at all!"

Meng Quji lost his patience and was about to leave.

Deng Feng shouted at his back, "General Meng, since you don't want to tolerate the conflict between the two parties in the court, why don't you break away and join the third force?"

this time.

Meng Quji stopped and said, "The third force? Are you talking about the King of Qin, the King of Qi, or the Sixth Prince who is about to be released from confinement? What is the difference between them and the Yan Party and the Gao Party?"

"Do not."

Deng Feng said calmly: "Neither."

"neither……"

Meng Quji glanced at the other person and suddenly thought of something: "Deng Feng, are you talking to me about Chen Sanshi?"

Deng Feng’s silence gave the answer.

Meng Quji sneered: "Nonsense! He is also an official in the court, isn't it the same? And many people know that although he has not clearly defined his team, he has an ambiguous relationship with the Yan Party."

"Chen Shuai is different. He will not participate in these so-called party disputes. Even if he is involved, it is just a temporary measure due to his status."

Deng Feng continued, "If General Chen is like the beast in human form who fights for power and profit in the court and does whatever it takes, I will definitely not follow him despite the infamy! This can be seen from the fact that General Chen tried every possible way to help the hungry people after he came to Taihu Prefecture. He even spent most of his money. How many officials would be willing to do that?"

"..."

Meng Quji knew about this.

At first, Chen Sanshi came to him, but was rejected by him.

Compared with the common people, he cares more about whether his brothers can have enough to eat.

“You should be able to find out how good Chen Shuai is to his brothers.

Deng Feng narrated: "General Chen started from Poyang County and led a group of brothers. These people have mediocre talents, but they are still in the Black Armor Army. General Chen buys tonics for them every month out of his own pocket. Whenever there are brothers who are killed or injured, he will give them the highest level of pension. Is it possible that a person like him would do something like the people in the court, such as the Yunzhou Ten Days, treating the border soldiers as numbers?"

"Chen Sanshi is a character."

Meng Quji knew it well: "But what's the point of you saying this?"

"General Meng, don't you understand? Since the court is dirty, I won't follow them!"

Deng Feng said in a sonorous voice: "Follow Chen Shuai with me, and one day, 'holding a three-foot-long sword, sweep away all the filth in the world'!"

"and many more……"

I didn't think deeply about it before.

At this point, Meng Quji suddenly realized something was wrong: "What are you going to do?!"

This is forming a clique for personal gain!

And it wasn't in the court, it was in private...

wrong.

It is no longer called forming a clique for personal gain, it should be said that it is secretly cultivating power!
Deng Feng said: "General Meng's reaction is exactly the same as what I did at the beginning. In short, I can guarantee that General Chen is different from them. As long as you agree, you will believe it in the future."

"No matter what you want to do, it's a bit too weak, isn't it?"

Meng Quji calculated, "After this battle, Chen Sanshi will have at most 10,000 soldiers under his command. What can a mere commander of a battalion do?"

"That's why we need General Meng to join us."

Deng Feng persuaded him, "With me, soon, General Chen will have two martial saints under his command! Moreover, this is probably your only chance to truly avenge the soldiers of Yunzhou.

"If I remember correctly, you had several sworn brothers and a woman you loved, but they all died in Yunzhou inexplicably, right?
"Even if you rush over, how many people can you kill?
"If you want revenge, take it completely!"

These sworn brothers.

Meng Quji worshipped it a long time ago.

His brothers were inferior to him in every aspect. The highest they could achieve was a lieutenant general, and the rest were captains and hundred commanders. That woman was also a brother's sister. These people did not have high status, and when they died in Yunzhou, people in the court probably thought that no one would care.

"How do you know all this? I rarely tell outsiders about it!"

"General Meng."

Deng Feng said in a deep voice: "Have you forgotten that I am responsible for guarding you at the border? Isn't it reasonable for me to find out the details of the enemy's commander? I have said everything that should be said. Do you want to keep your life for revenge in the future, or go to die? It's up to you.

Meng Quji closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he looked up again, his expression had become firm: "Okay, as long as you can do what you say, I can work hard for you, but there is still a problem, I have offended both sides this time.

"Chen Shuai...

"Let alone him, even if Master Chen Shuai came, he wouldn't be able to protect me, right?"

"Just hide first."

Deng Feng explained, "As a martial saint, it should be no problem for him to protect his own life. As for the follow-up matters, I will report to General Chen and he will handle them himself."

In the discussion room.

There was a figure approaching quickly in the distance.

Jiang Yuanbo!
"It's not advisable to stay here for long. You should find a way to survive first."

"Ok."

The anger dissipated, and the madness also receded. Meng Quji used all his strength to escape. He had always been a steady person in his life, but today was the first time he acted like this.

……

The prince's descendants began to flee.

After the Black Armor Army joined the battle, they no longer had the power to fight back.

Ling Xuzi died on the spot.

The seriously injured Yun Xiaozi led Cao Fan and several attendants to escape.

"His Majesty!"

Chen Sanshi escorted the old emperor to the Yangxin Palace, dispatched a thousand soldiers, and then handed the Longyuan Sword back to him with both hands: "You are not hurt, are you?"

"It's a small injury, it doesn't matter."

Emperor Longqing glanced at the blood gushing out of his shoulder and said, "You, on the other hand, look like you're seriously injured."

"I have a strong will, it doesn't matter!"

Chen Sanshi had calculated that it was nothing more than some external injuries. He would recover soon after going back and applying medicine. Even if he still needed to fight, it would not have much impact, after all, his meridians and bones were not damaged.

The door of the main hall opened.

Jiang Yuanbo hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, I am late in protecting you!"

"Commander Jiang, you've arrived just in time."

Chen Sanshi said: "It is safer for you to be responsible for His Majesty's safety, and I will go outside to hunt down and kill the rebels!"

"it is good."

Jiang Yuanbo nodded: "Master Chen, you have worked hard."

……

"Father!"

"Your Highness, leave quickly!"

"..."

Cao Fan walked through the woods, and every few steps he turned back to look at the Purple Palace, which was ablaze with flames, and asked, "Where is my father?"

"The prince is confused!"

Yun Xiaozi said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still alive. His Majesty will not easily kill his own son. At most, he will just imprison him. But the Crown Prince is still young. Are you ready to stay in the clan residence for the rest of your life?"

"Yes, Prince."

Eunuch Feng wiped his tears and said, "The prince had already told you before the incident that if anything unexpected happened, you should go to the Xianghuo Divine Religion. There is a high priest in the Divine Religion who can ensure your safety for the rest of your life."

"It's Chen Sanshi again, it's him again!"

Cao Fan recalled the last scene and felt extremely painful.

There was clearly still a chance for one last fight!

Just at this moment, the Black Armor Army rushed out and extinguished their last hope.

"If the prince wants revenge, he should come back to the Divine Religion with us. If he succeeds in cultivation in the future, it won't be too late to come back and kill a mortal like him!"

Yun Xiaozi persuaded.

At the exit of the woods in front of them, a dark shadow appeared at some point.

"who!"

Eunuch Feng scolded.

"it's me!"

A familiar ugly face appeared.

Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zhang Laizi!"

Yun Xiaozi wanted to scold, but in the end he didn't dare: "Why did you abandon us before!"

"Humph!"

"The Longyuan Sword is right there, I knew something was wrong!"

Chen Sanshi said: "Where are you going?"

"Return to the God Church!"

Yun Xiaozi said, "Do you want to go with me, Mr. Zhang? You are also practicing the Way of Incense and Fire. Now that the Divine Religion has suffered heavy losses, it would be fine for you to be the deputy leader!"

"I'll go back with you..."

Chen Sanshi pondered and said, "Then what benefits can I get?"

“There are a lot of benefits!”

Yun Xiaozi said: "Let's talk while we walk, it's too late!"

"and many more!"

Cao Fan interrupted, "Master Zhang, before you leave, can you... do what you promised me first?"

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"Chen Sanshi!"

Cao Fan gnashed his teeth and said, "He and I are sworn enemies! Master Zhang, as long as you promise to kill him, all of Taizu's relics... will belong to you alone! Killing him should be a piece of cake for you, right?"

"That's right, I'll take you down the mountain first!"

As Chen Sanshi spoke, he quietly protected everyone in front of him, took a few steps, and suddenly drew his sword, first hacking to death two servants, and then used up his remaining sword skills to kill Yun Xiaozi and the other two.

In the blink of an eye.

Only Cao Fan was left.

"Hero Zhang, why are you like this?!"

Cao Fan was shocked, feeling wronged and angry: "We've given you all the remains of our great ancestor, what else do you want?! Even Yun Xiaozi and the others want you to be the deputy leader!

“At the beginning, you also promised in person to bring me Chen Sanshi’s head!
"How can a person be so unfaithful and ungrateful!"

“Boy.

"Look up and take a good look. Who am I?"

Suddenly, Zhang Laizi's voice sounded very familiar.

He reached out and wiped his face, revealing another face.

"you……"

Cao Fan had a look as if he had seen a ghost: "How, how could it be you! Zhang Laizi, it has always been you? You have deceived everyone?!"

One by one.

Now recalling it.

This chaos.

The biggest winner is neither the Emperor nor the Yan Party.

I'm afraid it's Chen Sanshi in front of us!
