This sword came so fast and with such absolute force that almost everyone in the Wengcheng could see it clearly, but only Huan Xuan could see the assassin's appearance clearly. Although his face was covered, his eyes were Her clear water eyes cannot be hidden. She must be a stunning beauty, but her attacks are so quick, accurate and ruthless. In Huan Xuan's heart, he even begins to sigh at the wonder of God, who can achieve such perfection but the opposite. Two things, integrated into one person.
However, a layer of strange black mist rose up next to Huan Xuan, and a dark shadow appeared from nowhere, blocking Huan Xuan's body. This speed was so fast that people had no time to blink, and the shattered In the night sky, the unstoppable sword disappeared in the black mist. Four or five sparks could be vaguely seen bursting out. Along with a few sounds of breaking through the sky, in the blink of an eye, in front of Huan Xuan , everything disappeared into nothing, whether it was the female assassin dressed as a coachman or the black shadow blocking him, it seemed as if they had evaporated from the world all of a sudden. Only the faint night wind was still blowing.
There was a burst of exclamation near the city gate: "There are assassins, there are assassins!"
The guards of Huanxuan, who were in darkness because they were in the doorway and had the lights turned out, fell into a commotion, their white swords gleaming and slashing at everyone around them who wanted to attack them. , the scene suddenly became extremely chaotic.
Huan Xuan tightly hugged Huan Sheng, who was so scared that he was crying, and rushed towards the city gate. Yu Yizhi followed closely beside him, pulled out his waist knife and slashed hard, while slashing, While shouting: "Whoever stands in my way will die, whoever stands in my way will die."
Wan Gai and Ding Xianqi were also following Huan Xuan closely. There were more than ten personal eunuchs beside them. At this moment, they pulled out the poles on the lid that Huan Xuan was holding. They were swinging around, but they were so fierce that they didn't dare to get close. In the chaos, these people actually rushed out of the city gate opening like this. In the urn city, Bian Fanzhi's desperate cry, But he was getting further and further away: "Your Majesty, wait for me, wait for me!"
At the top of the south city, in a remote corner, stood two black figures, silently watching Huan Xuan, Huan Qian, Huan Shikang, Yu Yizhi, Wan Gai, Ding Xianqi and others rushing out of the city, as well as More than 20 guards seized the horses outside the door and ran wildly towards the Jiangfeng Ferry in the south. However, the fighting in Wengcheng did not stop. Even Wang Tengzhi's men behind him joined the battle. The roar echoed in the city: "Kill me and protect Your Majesty!"
The corner of Mingyue's mouth curled up: "I'm afraid that the majesty that General Wang wants to protect has been replaced by Sima Dezong in the carriage."
Behind the bronze mask of the black robe, a pair of eyes were shining. He suddenly struck out like lightning. With this palm strike, five finger prints were left on Mingyue's beautiful face, which made water drip from the corners of Mingyue's mouth. There was a line of blood, and her people immediately knelt on the ground: "Master, Mingyue is acting under orders. As a last resort, please spare my life."
The black robe said coldly: "Whose order are you taking? Your good senior brother's, or your new master's?"
An eerie voice sounded from behind the black robe: "Brother, why bother this junior? If you have any dissatisfaction, you can come to me."
The white eyebrows in the black robe frowned slightly, and he waved his hand. As if the moon was amnesty, he turned around and jumped off the top of the city, disappearing into the silent night sky.
Turning around, he looked at the cloaked man behind him who was covered in a cloak and wearing a lifeless human skin mask. A trace of anger flashed in the black-robed eyes: "What do you mean?"
Doupengke smiled slightly: "You and I made it clear last time in Jiankang that Yuanming and Mingyue are my people and I will take them back. They are working for me now."
The black robe said in a deep voice: "But I didn't agree to let you kill Huan Xuan and destroy the Chu Kingdom!"
Doupengke shook his head: "You are always confused about the situation. Didn't you make a mistake? The prerequisite for immortalizing Huan Xuan is that you can lead the Southern Yan army to march south as you planned, capture the six counties in Jiangbei, and force Liu Yu to shrink Go back to the south of the Yangtze River and recall the Western Expeditionary Army. But your plan failed. Not a single soldier of Nanyan crossed the Daxian Mountain. Even Liu Yu retreated Murongde's hundreds of thousands of troops in a few words. Naturally, I have to adapt to changes in the situation. , to adjust our goals, if Huan Xuan cannot play a role in containing Liu Yu, then he is an abandoned son, what else can we do?!"
The black robe gritted his teeth: "Huan Xuan is not as incompetent as you said. Jingzhou is his home base. If we keep him, he can at least hold Liu Yu here for two or three years. We still have a chance to arrange the next southern expedition. This After I have dealt with Murong Beide and put Murong Chao in charge, I am fully confident that this boy will raise his troops and go south within two years. If Huan Xuan is there to restrain Jingzhou at this time, then our plan can still succeed, but it is just a delay. It’s only been two years!”
Doupengke sighed softly: "Even if I don't take action, do you think Huan Xuan can continue to resist for two years? Even if he escapes back to Huan Zhen, he will just continue to flee west to Bashu. Do you think he dares to stay in Jingzhou and continue?" Resistance as you imagined? From the very beginning, you chose the wrong person. Huan Xuan is a man who would give up everything in order to survive. He doesn't have the ruthlessness at all. Is such a loser worthy of being Liu Yu's enemy? Are you afraid? Let’s ruin all our great achievements on him!”
The black robe's eyes were shining for a long time, and then he sighed: "You are right, Huan Xuan is indeed not cruel enough, but in Jingzhou, after all, the Huan family has been in the world for many years. Without Huan Xuan, who else has the ability to be here? Causing trouble for Liu Yu? Don't think that Liu Yi and Liu Yu can definitely fight. They are not the kind of people who can easily influence women. Even Liu Yi has achieved great success in destroying Huan this time, so in the army His prestige is no less than that of Liu Yu, and he may want to return to Jiankang to contact the aristocratic family and gain power in the court, instead of becoming a vassal town in Jingzhou!"
Doupengke smiled slightly: "Did I say that I wanted to support Liu Yi to fight against Liu Yu?"
The black-robed man was startled for a moment, then raised his white eyebrows: "What you said is..."
Doupengke put away his smile and said coldly: "I added a layer of insurance. To be precise, there are two people who can help me deal with Liu Yu. They are ruthless and capable enough. They will be there next. In the past few years, it has created endless trouble for Liu Yu!"
The black robe gritted his teeth and said: "The first person currently has insufficient troops, and the second person still needs time. Are you really sure they can do what you want?"
