Late at night, there was not even a soul on the streets of Chiyun City, and the silence was terrifying.
At the inn where Su Yue and his party stayed, many uninvited guests came.
The killer sent by Northern Xinjiang started a fierce fight with the hidden guards nearby. The noise was so loud that even Xiao Yan was awakened.
Xu Ying and others had been waiting outside the door for a long time. Even Su Qian opened the door with a tired look on his face. He also had business in Chiyun City. After checking it out, he was busy making the next arrangements until he came back. I just took a break, and the result...
"Brother, were you woken up too?" Su Yue immediately went out to check the situation and found that those people were no match for the secret guards, so she came in, Leng Feng following her.
"Yes, sister, did you just go out?" Xiao Yan saw that Su Yue was dressed neatly.
"Well, it's okay. Let's go and rest. We have to go on the road tomorrow."
"Ah ha..." Su Qian yawned greatly, "Then I'll go back to sleep. I'm so sleepy. Why do these people keep going?"
Just as he turned around, an arrow flew past his eyes and penetrated directly into the door and window next to him. Su Qian was frightened and his sleepiness completely disappeared. He shouted, "Sister, help!"
Su Yue drew out her long sword immediately and flew out to meet him. She had been practicing sword practice recently and had not really faced the enemy yet. This time she just wanted to give it a try.
This group of people is not the same as the group in Northern Xinjiang, but the subordinates of the ghost girl. She didn't use a living corpse this time because it was too obvious to avoid being noticed by her master, so she secretly carried out a sneak attack while the Northern Xinjiang killer was attacking.
Su Yue waved her long sword, silver light flashed, and the men in black fell down one after another, without taking a single blow from Su Yue's hand.
The ghost girl was shocked. Princess Yongle's skills were so good. She underestimated her opponent. Seeing something was wrong, he immediately flew away. Su Yue didn't think about chasing after him. Anyway, he would come next time, so she was in no hurry. Let's deal with the remaining men in black.
Lengfeng followed Su Yue, and the two of them cooperated very well, like partners for many years, and quickly eliminated most of the remaining men in black.
Suddenly, more than a dozen feather arrows flew towards them, and more than a dozen men in black fell to the ground.
Anyone help? Su Yue didn't hesitate for a moment, and she and Leng Feng finished off the remaining people while taking a breather.
Then, a group of people wearing white clothes and carrying bows and arrows behind them entered the inn and lined up on both sides.
Su Yue raised her eyebrows, oh, what kind of big shot is coming? That streak of white is very dazzling, why would you wear white clothes when fighting?
Then he saw a man in his twenties, holding a folding fan, dressed in white and wearing a jade crown, with an elegant demeanor.
"I'm Bai Lingtian, the lord of Chiyun City. I'm here to help at the lord's order."
"My friend, Su Yue." Su Yue gave him a courteous gesture.
Bai Lingtian smiled and said, "You are the junior sister of Alliance Leader Duan, right? I have admired her name for a long time." Then he looked at the corpses behind them and said, "Alliance Leader Duan's worries are really in vain. With Miss Su's skills, there is no need to worry at all."
"Thank you very much to the City Lord's Mansion. I will definitely come to express my gratitude someday."
As a member of the Jianghu, Su Yue will definitely not let Xiao Yan get ahead, so all this will be put on the second senior brother.
"Girl, you're welcome. If I have nothing else to do, I'll take my leave." Bai Lingtian nodded slightly.
Su Yue watched the group of people leave, "Leng Feng, have someone clean up this place."
"yes."
Su Qian came to Su Yue and said, "The City Lord's Mansion is worthy of being the City Lord's Mansion. Each one of them is really impressive."
Su Yue glanced at him and said, "Third brother, you are the third young master of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, aren't you impressive enough?"
"Hey, that's different. Look at those people just now. They all have extraordinary skills." Su Qian was full of envy.
Su Yue ignored him. Her own subordinates were all masters, no worse than the people in the City Lord's Mansion. It's just that there is no good packaging. Anyway, she feels that if he wears white clothes in a fight, the city lord may not be a slut.
She walked straight towards Xiao Yan, "Brother, there are obviously two groups of people today. The ones outside are from Northern Xinjiang, and the ones inside..."
"He's from Southern Xinjiang," Leng Feng said.
In southern Xinjiang, Su Yue thought of the ghost girl from before, and then thought of the man in black who escaped. His figure did look like a woman.
Xiao Yan's eyes were slightly cold, "Yue'er, you should go back and rest first. It will be dawn in a while. We will be on our way again at noon tomorrow. It won't take more than a day and a half."
"Okay, okay, that's good. I'm going back to sleep." Su Qian yawned and left.
I can still sleep, my heart is so big.
"Master, princess, you should go back and rest, and leave the rest to your subordinates." Xu Ying and Li Zilong stepped forward. This enemy was not their turn, so they could still deal with the aftermath.
Xiao Yan nodded and looked at Su Yue, "Sister, let's go and rest too."
"Okay, brother."

royal palace.
"Mommy, we have no room for maneuver anymore, right?" The queen seemed to have aged more than ten years in just a few days.
The son was sent to the frontier, and the mother's family was gone. It was only a matter of time before she, the queen, was deposed.
Mother Ma also had no idea at all. The emperor's decrees had frightened her. Then she seemed to have thought of something and regained some strength. "Mother, we... we also have the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother The empress will definitely save us. The emperor is so filial, he will definitely..."
"Haha, Queen Mother? It has been so many days. If the Queen Mother could have been saved, she would have appeared a long time ago. Now that the imperial edict has been issued, it is a foregone conclusion. The Queen Mother, my good girl, must have given up on us at this moment." The Queen looked defeated. .
This time the Queen really wronged the Queen Mother. Now the Queen Mother can't protect herself. She doesn't know the situation outside at all. She is accompanied by the portrait of the late Emperor every day, and she is almost in a state of stupidity.
"No, Queen Mother..."
"Stop talking, mama, I...accepted my fate. I have been fighting for my whole life, but nothing has happened, hahaha," the queen suddenly laughed, "Looking at it now, I am a little envious of Concubine Yun. Although he died, he left two children to the emperor and was deeply loved by the emperor. As for me...I have nothing left..."
"Empress..." Ma Ma couldn't help wiping her tears. She was old, and she wasn't afraid of death, but the empress was still young, and there was King Jing, so how could it become like this?
"Mommy, do you think it would have been better if I hadn't entered the palace back then."
Everything was over. She had spent her whole life for her ambition, but what did she get in the end?
"Mommy, when do you think the Emperor's decree to depose the Queen will arrive? Tomorrow?"
The queen had no thoughts at this moment. For her, without her position as queen, her mother's family, and her son, it would be better to die cleanly.
The next morning, Zhang Fu came to Fenglan Hall with the imperial edict.
"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict saying that Empress Liu killed the palace concubines and murdered the emperor's heirs. She committed adultery in the harem and confounded the emperor's heirs. She has now deprived her of the title of empress and awarded her three feet of white silk. I appreciate this."
