"Madam, this is polite."
Long Chen walked into the bridal chamber with a smile, and two maids stood beside him.
"Tonight, there are flowers and candles in the wedding room, but I can only lie down. It's your fault."
Di Yuwei felt that he was at a loss.
On the wedding night, she was several months pregnant and couldn't do anything, thus wasting the most important moment in her life.
"I've already enjoyed it beforehand, it's the same."
Long Chen sat down next to him and touched his bulging belly.
"What? You obviously enjoyed it."
Di Yu complained softly.
"Okay, I've enjoyed it."
Long Chen kissed him, stood up and wanted to leave. Di Yu slightly pulled Long Chen and said, "I can't do anything, but you can't leave. You must stay with me for an hour."
Long Chen said with a smile: "You are really bad. You obviously can't do anything, but you still take up time. You know that a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold."
Di Yu snorted slightly: "I just know that Chunxiao is valuable, so I won't let you go."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Okay, wait over there for an hour."
The two of them were talking and counting the time...
...
Dingxicheng.
Night falls slowly, the cold wind blows through the streets, the shops close, the people return home, a curfew begins in the city, the patrolling Wuhou walks by holding a torch, the sound of horse hooves is cold.
Shi Jingxiang was sitting in the bedroom on the second floor. There was a brazier in front of him, with a wine pot on it, and a slight amount of heat came out of the spout.
The maid put down a few plates of side dishes and slowly poured a glass of wine.
Shi Jingxiang picked up the small wine and drank it slowly, spending the long winter night.
She knew about Long Chen's wedding today, because the city was also celebrating and lanterns were hung on the streets.
Long Chen's wedding was celebrated by the whole country.
While drinking, Shi Jingxiang felt a little lonely. She obviously didn't care, but she still felt a little stuck.
The window was opened a crack, the cold wind rushed in, and the maid tightened her clothes.
Shi Jingxiang leaned against the window and drank slowly.
The prison cell of the Prefect's Mansion.
This was originally the Heavenly Prison of Xixia, but now it was changed to the death row of the Prefect's Mansion.
Ma Yan was imprisoned on death row, and his clothes were stained with blood.
He knelt in front of Shi Jingxiang in the street and begged her to return to the country. After he was arrested, Meng Luo interrogated him personally. Ma Yan said nothing and bore the sentence.
After being tortured for several days, nothing came out, and Meng Luo put Ma Yan on death row.
"Shi Potian, the Taizu of Xixia, fought in the south and north, defeated the ghost tribe, and founded Xixia. It has been almost four hundred years since then."
"How can a four-hundred-year-old foundation be destroyed in one day? As the people of Xixia, we should revive Xixia."
Ma Yan was beaten to pieces, and while on death row, he was still talking about the restoration of Xixia.
"But Shi Potian is also Long Yuan's subordinate, and Long Chen is Long Yuan's descendant. Isn't Long Chen more qualified to be emperor?"
A death row prisoner with a ferocious face said.
Ma Yan glared at the death row prisoner and said angrily: "Fart, back then there were only three generals of Wusheng, Taizu of Xixia, Taizu of Eastern Zhou and Taizu of Nanliang. When did Long Yuan exist? Their Long family was not in the mainstream."
The death row prisoner sneered: "Now everyone knows that Long Yuan is the leader of the fight against the ghost clan, and you still want to lie to us. Do you think we are stupid?"
Another older death row prisoner said: "Regardless of what happened back then, let's just talk about it now. Long Chen has a lot of troops, Xixia has been destroyed for several years, and people's hearts are no longer there. Why do you want to restore the country? Just you? In a few days it will be over Behead you."
Ma Yan sneered and said: "Behead me? Humph, what a joke, tonight is the time to restore the country."
The death row prisoner asked in surprise: "Tonight? Are your people ready?"
Outside death row.
Dozens of men wearing Xixia military uniforms suddenly appeared and charged in with sharp blades.
The jailers were surprised. They didn't expect anyone to dare to attack the death row.
In other words, since the fall of Xixia, there has never been a rebellion in Dingxicheng.
"Kill! Revive Xixia!"
The leader was short in stature, but extremely agile, and his sword skills were sharp and ferocious. As soon as the jailer came face to face with him, he was hacked to death.
"There are assassins."
The jailer shouted, and dozens of people rushed into the death row and broke the chains. The prisoners inside rushed out and surrounded and beat the jailer.
Those who are imprisoned here are all extremely evil and vicious, and the final result is to be beheaded with one knife.
Someone breaks in, and they get a chance to escape. Regardless of the reason, they rush out first.
"Revive Xixia!"
The thief shouted to kill him. Ma Yan struggled, held on to the fence and laughed, "See, I said tonight is the time to do something."
"Kill, kill Long Chen and revive Xixia."
The prisoners in the cell stood up and shouted loudly while holding on to the bars. Several guards retreated to the corner and cried in horror.
"Hahaha, you have today too."
"Kill them, kill them."
"I will drink his blood."
Soon, the thieves arrived and hacked the jailer to death.
The cell fence opened and Ma Yan walked out and asked, "Has everything started?"
The thief nodded and said: "It's all started, let's go."
Ma Yan shouted to the prisoners on death row: "We are descendants of the Xixia royal family. Follow us to raise the flag to restore the country, and those who have meritorious service will be granted the title of marquis."
The prisoners on death row didn't think much and just followed to survive.
"It's done, I'm done with you."
"Get out there and kill them."
More than a hundred prisoners followed the thieves and rushed out. The death row was set on fire, with blazing fire and thick smoke rising. The scene was very chaotic.
Prefect's Mansion.
Prefect Meng Luo drank with his colleagues at night to celebrate Long Chen's wedding. They could not go to the capital and could only congratulate from afar in Dingxi City.
After drinking, Mengluo fell into a deep sleep.
Suddenly hearing shouts of killing outside the city, Meng Luo was startled and shouted: "What's going on outside?"
The guard rushed into the bedroom and reported: "Prefect, someone is robbing the prison over there on death row, and there is a lot of movement."
Meng Luo hurriedly put on his clothes and went out. When he climbed up to a high place, he saw the flames of the death row shooting into the sky. The prisoners on death row rushed out of the prison, went to the street, and started setting fire to kill people.
"Where's Captain Li!"
The name of Lieutenant Li mentioned by Meng Luo was Li Chunhe. He was the commanding officer of Dingxicheng. He had served under Han Ziping and had killed ghosts.
After returning from Yuncheng, Meng Luo appointed him as the patrol captain.
"Captain Li has led his troops to kill them."
Meng Luo felt relieved now and said: "Blow the drums, all the troops will gather to kill the thieves."
"Send more people to put out the fire and protect the people!"
His subordinates immediately sent orders, and the troops in the city took action immediately.
Meng Luo stood on a high place, overlooking the city and observing the situation.
As the prefect of Dingxicheng, Mengluo has a heavy responsibility. He can faintly hear the cry of "reviving Xixia". These are the remnants of Xixia and must be eradicated!
Suddenly, a black shadow fell not far away. Meng Luo was startled and hurriedly drew the sword from his waist.
He was a civil servant, but he also practiced martial arts.
"Who are you!"
"Hmph, I am Shi Lang, the crown prince of Xixia! I will kill you tonight to start an uprising and revive Xixia!"
After saying that, the man came to kill with his sword, Meng Luo hurriedly resisted, but with just one move, the sharp sword pierced Meng Luo's chest.
"go to hell!"
boom...
Meng Luo's body fell and hit the ground.
When the servant saw it, he was so frightened that he screamed: "The governor has been killed, the governor has been killed..."
The prefect's mansion was in chaos.
The assassin killed Meng Luo and entered the prefect's mansion with his sword. Screams broke out, the fire spread, and the prefect's mansion turned into a sea of fire.
Shi Jingxiang was drinking on the second floor, recalling the past.
Suddenly, fire broke out in the direction of the death row.
In the dark night, this firelight is particularly conspicuous.
"Huh? What's going on?"
The maid also saw it and looked over at the window lattice in surprise.
Shi Jingxiang didn't pay attention at first, thinking it was just a fire in the cell.
However, the fire became bigger and bigger, the burning became more and more severe, and the shouts of killing suddenly started. Shi Jingxiang faintly heard the cry of "Reviving Xixia".
These people...
Shi Jingxiang immediately understood that this was probably the so-called revival of Xixia forces causing chaos.
On the day of Long Chen's wedding, he started an uprising in Dingxicheng. What a good day to choose...
"Princess, they came out."
Knife-wielding men suddenly appeared on the street, holding torches and setting fires everywhere. Houses were knocked open, screams broke out, and men and women were hacked to death with random knives.
By the firelight, Shi Jingxiang could see that the military uniforms on their bodies were of Xixia style.
These people didn't come from death row, they were around.
When the death row caught fire, fires began to burn in many places in the city, and they had many strongholds in the city.
"It is unreasonable to burn, kill, and loot in the name of restoring the country!"
Shi Jingxiang was furious, grabbed a long sword on the wall, jumped out of the window, and landed on the street.
A dozen thieves saw Shi Jingxiang jumping down from the building and immediately surrounded him.
"This girl is so handsome..."
The thieves were salivating and gathered around: "Catch him alive!"
Shi Jingxiang was furious. He unsheathed his long sword and exploded with zhenqi. The thief who rushed in front was instantly cut in half.
After detoxification, his cultivation level dropped, but Shi Jingxiang was still a master at the peak of Emperor Zun.
The thief was frightened and did not expect Shi Jingxiang to be so powerful.
"Be careful, it's a master!"
The thief exclaimed that Shi Jingxiang had fought to the end and there were only two thieves left.
"Who are you!"
The last two thieves were armed with strange weapons. They didn't look like members of the army, but more like martial arts people.
"Who are you, burning and killing in the name of restoring the country?"
Shi Jingxiang was furious. These thieves had insulted the reputation of the Xixia royal family.
"Walk!"
The thief thought he was outmatched, so he turned around and wanted to run away. Shi Jingxiang immediately chased him.
After chasing and escaping for a few streets, a group of people rushed out from the front, led by an armored general holding a hard bow.
The thieves fled in panic. The general killed one of them with an arrow. Shi Jingxiang caught up with him and chopped the other thieves in half with his sword.
"Who are you!"
The general shouted and pointed his bow at Shi Jingxiang.
"Shi Jingxiang!"
The general was stunned for a moment, then immediately dismounted and saluted: "General Li Chunhe, pay your respects to Princess Xiang!"
Working under Han Ziping, Li Chunhe heard Han Ziping's gossip and knew Shi Jingxiang's identity.
Because of Long Chen, Li Chunhe immediately bowed to see him.
"What's going on tonight?"
Shi Jingxiang asked.
Li Chunhe said: "I don't know, thieves suddenly appeared, burning and killing everywhere, and the general was leading people to destroy them."
Shi Jingxiang asked: "Who is defending over there at the Prefect's Mansion?"
Li Chunhe was shocked and said: "There is no one to defend."
Shi Jingxiang frowned and said, "You have fallen into a trap. Go back quickly and I will calm down other places."
Li Chunhe immediately bowed: "Princess Xie Xiang."
Li Chunhe immediately led his troops back to the governor's mansion, and Shi Jingxiang picked up his sword and wiped out the rebels in the city.
The biggest source of chaos was around the death row. Shi Jingshan rushed towards the death row with his sword.
Soon after arriving at the death row, the surrounding government offices and private houses were set on fire, the flames shot into the sky, the people screamed and ran away, and the thieves killed indiscriminately.
Shi Jingxiang was furious and shouted: "If you surrender and don't kill, those who resist will die!"
When the thief saw someone coming to kill him, he immediately cursed: "Kill that bitch!"
