Immediately after this arrow was shot!

More armored warriors emerged from the Crown Prince's Palace. Although their armors were made of different materials, at first glance they were much more effective than the knights without armor.

Especially the slogans shouted by these warriors who came out of the prince's palace made them seem to have an unstoppable momentum.

"Execute the traitor Liu Yu!"

"If you commit a crime against the thief Liu Yu, behead him and reward ten thousand marquises!"

"Only punish Liu Yu, and the others will not be guilty!"

Immediately afterwards, from behind these howling warriors, many more soldiers appeared holding high the crown prince's ceremonial flag.

With the support of these slogans and ceremonial guards, the Qingzhou soldiers who were suddenly attacked were stunned one by one and dispersed to the sides and rear.

Zhao Kun was shocked when he saw this, but he quickly reacted. Especially when he saw the crown prince holding a bow and arrow and shooting down one of his Qingzhou soldiers, he became furious instantly.

He waved the long knife in his hand and shouted to the panicked Qingzhou armored soldiers on the left and right.

"Don't mess around, no one is allowed to give me back!"

"Form up a formation and kill the thieves!"

With Zhao Kun's shout, the Qingzhou soldiers on the left and right calmed down.

After the panic just now, the Qingzhou soldiers had no formation at this time. They had no choice but to bite the bullet and resist the attack from the opposite side under the leadership of Yamen Governor Zhao Kun.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion and Zhao Kun's Qingzhou soldiers collided.

Soon, the sound of clashing weapons, slashing, and the shouts of soldiers on both sides resounded throughout the street.

These dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion broke out with astonishing fighting power. If these Qingzhou soldiers were not elite Yamen Army guards, they might not have been able to withstand it if they were ordinary Army soldiers.

While the soldiers from both sides were fighting, arrows were continuously fired at the Qingzhou Army from behind the dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion.

These feather arrows were extremely accurate, and those who hit them all hit the face, causing a commotion immediately.

Zhao Kun also noticed this situation. He knocked over the dead soldier in front of him, took two steps back and looked to the opposite side.

Behind the dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion, archers wearing the Crown Prince's crown were seen shooting calmly.

"This Bird Prince, doesn't he study every day? Why is his archery so good!?"

Zhao Kun was so angry that his teeth itched. The sharpshooter Crown Prince stood on a chariot that had just been taken out of the palace, shooting at the Qingzhou soldiers from a high position.

Seeing the crown prince responsible for remote output, Zhao Kun couldn't help but became furious. He turned his head and shouted loudly at the soldiers behind him.

"Bring me my big yellow bow!"

Just when a fierce battle suddenly broke out at the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Liu Yu and Xun Fan happened to lead officials from Xingtai to inspect the vicinity.

The sound of fighting that suddenly broke out from the prince's residence immediately attracted the attention of these people.

"General, the voice seems to be coming from the direction of the Prince's Mansion?!" Sikong Xunfan said in surprise.

He couldn't help but wonder to himself, could it be that the always weak crown prince, who refused to be manipulated, really started an army? But according to the news I heard, there are at most a few hundred hidden dead soldiers in the Crown Prince's residence, so what kind of trouble can they cause.

Unless, unless the Crown Prince is the vanguard, maybe those Qingzhou soldiers who are afraid of the imperial power really don't dare to stop them.

"Yes, let's go and see what's going on!" Liu Yu frowned, and couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied. Zhao Kun was so incompetent in his work. Listening to this movement, it seemed that the battle was quite fierce, and some of the prince's palaces were hiding secrets. Is it so difficult to deal with manpower?

The officials following the two men were all frightened at this time. Listening to this sound, it seemed that the crown prince's residence was under attack.

It seems that Liu Yu and these Qingzhou thieves are really in the nature of "rebellious ministers and traitors". They will attack the palace of the crown prince and prince at any time. It seems that the banner of the Jin Dynasty cannot be held up in Liu Yu's hands for two days. .

If it weren't for the Qingzhou armored soldiers who followed Liu Yu with swords and guns in their hands, and followed Liu Yu fiercely, these officials who had a strong sense of loyalty among the hundreds of officials in Xingtai would have raised their arms and shouted at this time, calling on all officials to be executed together. A traitor.

However, these people were just thinking about it. At this time, they could only continue to follow Liu Yu and Xun Fan's horses and walk quickly towards the Prince's Mansion.

Led by Liu Yu and Xun Fan, a group of several hundred people just turned a corner and saw the gate of the Crown Prince's residence at the end of the intersection.

However, at the gate of the Crown Prince's residence, hundreds of people were fighting together in a dense crowd. The smell of blood and the shouts of killing made many officials in the office feel weak in their legs.

At this time, many officials in the office suddenly discovered that behind the crowd in the distance, it was the crown prince who was drawing the bow and shooting arrows, looking majestic and majestic.

This strange sight couldn't help but make many of these officials feel strange in their hearts.

"The Jin Dynasty is so lucky to have such a mighty crown prince!"

"No wonder the Qingzhou soldiers, who have always been invincible, are also fighting so anxiously. With such a mighty crown prince, who dares to stop him!"

Just when these officials at the office had just seen the situation in front of them, they suddenly heard a faint cry like a bull roaring among the shouts of killing in front of them.

"Bring me my big yellow bow!"

I saw a strong military man wearing black armor, taking a strong bow that was handed over to me, and he drew the string with an arrow in one go.

"Boom!"

With a soft sound, a white feather arrow flew over the fighting crowd and shot towards the crown prince standing on the chariot behind!

Everyone watching from a distance was shocked!

Before anyone could shout in surprise, the feather arrow had already hit the crown prince's face.

The arrow hits the person and knocks him down.

The Crown Prince fell off the carriage without even uttering a scream and disappeared behind the chaotic crowd.

"The Crown Prince is dead!?!"

"This is regicide!"

All the officials in the office were frightened out of their wits after witnessing all this.

These Qingzhou soldiers were so cruel that they actually shot and killed the crown prince in public?

Even the crown prince dares to kill, so if we officials resist, will we still have a way to survive?

Everyone couldn't help but start thinking about their own destiny, and almost no one thought about loyalty to the emperor anymore.

"This, this, this..."

Sikong Xunfan and Liu Yu were riding on the horse, and they saw the situation clearly.

Xun Fan originally thought that Liu Yu was stupid and wanted to do the stupid thing that Yuan Shu did when he was independent. Seeing that the barbarians were raging and Liu Yu was the only one who could protect the peace of the Central Plains, he just turned himself into a thief.

But now it seems that even the crown prince was killed on the spot.

What kind of Yuan Shu is this? This is clearly Dong Zhuo!

Although Xun Fan spoke, he didn't know what to say.

If faced with "Yuan Shu" who was reasonable and wanted reputation, Xun Fan was confident that he could handle it calmly.

But facing the arrogant, unreasonable and shameless "Dong Zhuo", Xun Fan didn't know what other tricks he could do besides complete obedience.

In fact, Liu Yu was also shocked by the sight in front of him. He did not expect that Zhao Kun would shoot the crown prince to death without hesitation.

Liu Yu thought to himself, I wonder if Prince Sima Duan can be saved. If he was hit by an arrow in the face, he doesn't know the probability of surviving. Alas, even if he survived, it would be unreasonable to shoot the crown prince in public. It is not that we want to completely lose the hearts and minds of these scholars and officials.

If that were the case, wouldn't all my efforts to win over these officials be in vain?

At this time, Liu Yu heard Xun Fan's stammering words.

Under such circumstances, Liu Yu could only bite the bullet and accept the words confidently.

"The thief took the prince as a hostage and couldn't escape, so he shot and killed the prince. Did you all see it?"

Xun Fan was stunned when he heard this. Seeing the serious and upright look on Liu Yu's face, he began to doubt in his heart. Could it be that his eyes were wrong just now?

It seemed that it might not have been shot by the Qingzhou sergeant. Even if it was shot by him, it might have been done by a traitor who had infiltrated the Qingzhou army to confuse the public?

Just when Xun Fan was still hesitating, someone among the Xingtai officials behind him suddenly echoed Liu Yu's words.

"The general is right. I did see the crown prince who was hit by an arrow in the traitor formation!"

After Liu Yu heard this, he immediately turned to look at the official who was speaking. He seemed to be a fifth or sixth grade official.

Liu Yu nodded at him and carefully remembered his appearance.

Immediately, more and more voices echoed from the officials behind him.

"Yes, it was indeed a traitor who killed the crown prince."

"The general is right, traitors deserve to die!"

"The traitor will never be able to atone for his crime even if he dies!"

At this time, those officials who were blocked in the back and did not see what was happening in front of them also followed suit.

Suddenly, except for some loyal people who said that they had poor eyesight and could not see clearly in the distance, all the officials who followed came to a consensus!

That is "the traitor who caused trouble just killed the crown prince!"

At this time, cheers erupted from the front because the crown prince was killed.

Of course it was the work of traitors who were causing trouble, and there was no way it could have been sent by the Qingzhou soldiers.

"I am already old and can't see far away, but the general has good eyesight and can't escape any truth." Sikong Xunfan gently pinched the center of his brow with his hand and said with a pale face.

"It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning." After Liu Yu finished speaking, he walked straight ahead and said to Xun Fan.

"Mr. Xun, the thief has been defeated!"

Sure enough, after resisting the "Three Axes" of the dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion, Zhao Kun's Qingzhou soldiers relied on their array and endurance to quickly launch a counterattack.

The dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion, who had failed to take a single blow, had already noticed that the surrounding Qingzhou soldiers were also coming, and they all lost the confidence to continue fighting.

Soon they were defeated and scattered like birds and beasts, running away towards the rear.

The victorious Qingzhou soldiers were even more unyielding, and they all followed closely to pursue them.

Liu Yu led the Qingzhou soldiers on his left and right towards the front. With the addition of these new troops, the dead soldiers of the Prince's Mansion fled for their lives without any care.

The following Xingtai officials had no choice but to continue running forward with Liu Yu.

Many timid officials had their legs weak and almost fell down. If they hadn't been supporting each other, they might have fallen to the ground.

Especially when they came to the place where the two sides fought just now, the dead bodies and wailing wounded all over the ground made them enter the hell of purgatory, and they were all too embarrassed to leave.

Liu Yu dismounted his horse at this time and saw that the crown prince who had just been shot out of the car was already trampled by the dead soldiers who had just fled. In addition, he was hit by an arrow in the face, and his face was even more bloody. It's impossible to tell.

"It seems that he is dead." Liu Yu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

This time, there is no need to worry about reputation. Anyway, the crown prince has been shot dead on the spot by his subordinates, so just give up the treatment.

However, looking at the body of Crown Prince Sima Duan, Liu Yu didn't know how to speak at this time.

At this moment, Zhao Kun came to Liu Yu with the bloody head, bowed and said.

"General, the Crown Prince doesn't know people well. He was deceived by the traitor Prince Zhan Shi He Yong and personally led the troops to fight. The general had no choice but to..."

Just as Zhao Kun said this, he was suddenly struck by a loud voice.

"The traitor He Yong was just then killed with his bow. Either he didn't recognize the person, or he was clearly forced to come here by the traitor He Yong!"

Gongsun Sheng came to the side at some unknown time and immediately planned out loud what Zhao Kun wanted to say.

Having said this, Gongsun Sheng turned around and shouted loudly to the officials behind him.

"Everyone, do you think so?"

Liu Yu's expression was unclear at this time, and all the officials in the office next to him could see clearly that they were all very afraid that the "devil king" in front of them would suddenly go crazy. If all these officials were silenced, wouldn't it be in vain? died unjustly.

There was a riot in the city today, and hundreds of officials were killed by hateful traitors, but it didn't seem to be a big deal.

After all, when the King of Zhao, King of Qi, King of Changsha, King of Chengdu and others were in Luoyang, they never killed thousands of people.

With Liu Yu's current "Dong Zhuo's reincarnation" appearance, there is no problem in killing these officials who are like losers.

"Yes, Mr. Gongsun is right."

"Yes, yes, that's it. This He Yong is really hateful!"

"Not only is He Yong hateful and worthy of death, but even the crown prince seems to have some moral misconduct."

"A person who is the heir to the throne, but he doesn't know people well, and he is killed by thieves, he can't blame others."

Soon, these outstanding people who knew current affairs took the initiative to change their tone from criticizing the traitors who caused chaos to criticizing the crown prince's moral incompetence.

Even officials with a keen sense of smell began to try to criticize the crown prince for many unethical behaviors.

Some officials who couldn't bear to agree so much did not dare to speak out or express dissatisfaction, for fear that Liu Yu would see him and cause death to themselves and their families.

Suddenly, the dead crown prince was criticized by some extreme people as a traitor and became a mere victim of rebellion.

Suddenly, a voice came.

"General, this person is not the crown prince!"
