There was deathly silence above the Golden Palace.
It took a long time before a minister let out a heart-rending cry of pain.
Several elderly ministers turned their heads and fainted.
Over the millennia of the Five Domains Dynasty, Xia Yunjie was the emperor who reigned for the shortest time.
He was also the only prince who was beheaded with a sword on top of the Golden Palace.
The Prince of Beihai was beheaded at the court meeting, and the envoy of the Beihai peace talks accompanied him to death.
The bloody scenes in front of them and the shocking and unspeakable facts made all the courtiers stunned.
The emperor's face was bloodless and white.
He looked at his half-brother lying in a pool of blood, speechless.
Only Yan Wuxue stood aside quietly, as if he had long foreseen that the Imperial Master would swing his sword to kill the enemy.
Li Ye took out a snow-white handkerchief and wiped the blood stains on the Golden Bell Sword. This was the first time he used the Imperial Master's Golden Sword.
Li Ye raised his head and glanced at the dazed emperor. He looked at the extremely shocked ministers and said calmly: "I just heard that your lords said that peace talks are needed for the five regions. The emperor is very worried. So, I will solve these problems for you lords." trouble."
"Prince Beihai is dead, so the late emperor has only one son left. From now on, everyone should be more honest and stop dreaming about snatching the throne for Prince Beihai every day."
Coldly, Li Ye looked at the courtiers standing under the Golden Palace.
The faces of His Highness's ministers were extremely pale, and many of them were trembling. They could not hear what Li Ye said.
"It's your business to be afraid of war, I'm not afraid! Now you don't have to make a choice, and neither does the Five Domains Dynasty."
Looking at the ministers in the palace, Li Ye raised the golden sword in his hand and said coldly: "If anyone dares to make peace in the future, it will be like this envoy from Beihai. And I tell you clearly, the dynasty will not accept surrender." !”
...
There was dead silence in the hall, and no one dared to answer Li Ye's words. .
In fact, the two lightning-fast swords struck the ministers like two thunderbolts, leaving everyone in a state of bewilderment.
You must know that Prince Xia Yunjie of Beihai is a cultivator in the realm of distraction, and he can't even take the sword of the national master.
A minister stood out of the queue and pointed a trembling finger at him, wanting to scold him for his cold-blooded and shameless behavior.
Li Ye looked at the man quietly and wiped the golden sword with his handkerchief.
The minister's fingers finally dropped weakly, his lips trembled with anger, and he fainted from fear. .
Since the eldest prince ascended the throne with the help of the imperial adviser, the dynasty has been divided into two factions, one is the new ministers who are loyal to the second prince, and the other is the old ministers who crowd the eldest prince.
Many ministers put the overall situation first to convince themselves to give up this mysterious realm and avoid dragging the imperial city into the quagmire of war. However, who would have thought that the Imperial Master would suddenly return to the city and enter the palace.
Just when everyone thought that peace talks were about to start, he killed the Prince of Beihai, the younger brother of the current emperor, with one sword! The one who died together was the envoy from Beihai.
Since ancient times, the two armies have not killed the envoys in battle, and today the national master has set a precedent.
He also vowed not to surrender his generals or troops. This was an oath to completely destroy the enemy forces in the North Sea!
Extremely frightened and angry, these ministers, who had seen countless storms, calmed down at an unimaginable speed, and were shocked to find that just as Li Ye said, this was the best outcome.
Not having to choose is the best choice. In fact, everyone understands this truth, but not everyone can make this decision for the emperor. Only the Imperial Master can do it, because only he dares to do so.
Colluding with the enemy forces in the North Sea is treason, and everyone will be punished.
Even the new emperor and the princess did not dare to take this responsibility for Xia Yunjie. However, if this kind of thing really happened in reality, who would dare to punish it at will?
Only Li Ye. Without giving the Prince of Beihai and the envoy any chance, without leaving any time for anyone to think, he chopped them down with one sword.
The ministers looked at Li Ye under the dragon case. Looking at the two corpses in a pool of blood, the expressions on their faces were extremely complicated, including anger, sadness, confusion, vigilance and fear.
No one answered Li Ye's words, and the dead silence continued.
"Since there is nothing to do, let's retreat from the court! Soon the Imperial Master will come to Baxia in person and join forces with Jiang Shuai to conquer the invading enemies from Beihai."
Seeing the emperor's speechless look, the eunuch made a decision for him. After all, this is the best decision at the moment. As Li Ye said, I am afraid of trouble, so I will eliminate all troubles one by one.
The second prince in front of him is the biggest trouble.
Only with the death of the second prince can the Five Regions Dynasty achieve long-term peace and stability for decades, so that he can ascend to find the late emperor with peace of mind, and the Imperial Master can return to the mountain to practice with peace of mind.
This is the result that all three of them want.
However, the emperor could not bear to be cruel. This is great, the national master took action to help him solve the troubles in front of him and those that would happen in the future!
In the 205th year of Xia Xuanli, it was midsummer.
The Imperial Master of the Five Regions Dynasty beheaded the Emperor's younger brother, the Prince of Beihai, with a sword at the Great Court Meeting.
At the same time, the decisive battle with the Beihai army began.
...
After the court meeting, Yan Wuxue hurriedly took the emperor back to break the situation. There was still half a pot of tea for the queen to drink.
Li Ye followed a group of courtiers out of the palace. He wanted to see Hua Tianxia.
The hidden dangers in the palace have been resolved. He plans to come back tomorrow to explain some necessary matters to the emperor, and then leave to join his husband the day after.
Now that the opponent's envoy has been killed, the next step is to fight to the death.
Riding a carriage and arriving outside Huamanlou, it was a scene that was no longer there.
He planned to go home after chatting with Hua Tianxia for a while. After all, a moment spent with his parents was a moment missing, and he had to cherish the present moment.
Before he could ask the waiter in the building, Hua Luoyu, who was sitting in the garden, saw Li Ye, exclaimed, ran out of the garden, and pulled him up and down to look him up and down.
"Oh, I haven't seen you in a few years. I have grown up and can marry and have children!" He took Li Ye's hand and walked upstairs, joking with him as he walked.
Li Ye let her drag her up, but a happy smile appeared on his face.
This is the life he wants, but it's a pity that God doesn't like it.
The two of them walked all the way to the private room on the third floor, where Hua Tianxia was sitting alone with a pot of tea and looking out the window in a daze.
"I don't know what you are looking at, sister? You didn't even see the Imperial Master come in from downstairs while sitting upstairs." Hua Luoyu pulled Li Ye to sit down and started yelling with Hua Tianxia.
Hua Tian, who was in a daze, was stunned for a moment. He turned to look at Li Ye, who had grown into a five-foot man, and was speechless for a long time. "You are finally back. When will you go find my husband?"
Li Ye looked at her and smiled and said, "I'll go after two days of rest."
Hua Tianxia nodded and said with a smile: "I'm just looking forward to you coming back to save lives. I wonder how he is doing on the front line? He didn't even send a letter back soon. It's very worrying."
Li Ye looked at her and shook his head, and said softly: "Isn't there a gentleman here? Sister Hua, don't worry, I will give you a letter when I go over and meet with my eldest brother."
"That's good... something's wrong with you. Where did you go just now? When did you come back? Where did you come back from?" Hua Tianxia wrinkled his nose, stood up and circled around Li Ye twice. .
Seeing that she couldn't avoid it, Li Ye had no choice but to pull her to sit down, looked at the two of them and replied quietly: "I came back last night and went to the palace early in the morning. During the morning court..."
He simply told the two of them what happened at the court meeting. Anyway, this matter would soon spread throughout the imperial city.
"Oh my god, you actually beheaded the emperor's brother? And also beheaded the envoys who came for peace talks? No wonder you have a strong smell of blood on your body. I thought you just came back from the front line."
Hua Tianxia looked at Li Ye, screamed and covered her mouth.
Li Ye frowned helplessly, looked at the two of them and said, "Someone has to do something bad. I would have done it the day I returned to the city with my eldest brother. If I hadn't been protecting you..."
Hua Luoyu was so frightened by Li Ye that she was speechless. The emperor only has one younger brother, the Prince of Beihai. Li Ye actually beheaded the prince of the dynasty? !
After being stunned for a long time, Hua Tianxia finally remembered to pour him hot tea. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Does the Emperor blame you? Where is Concubine Li who went to Qingcheng?"
Li Ye picked up the tea cup in front of him and blew gently, looked at her and said with a smile, "Am I afraid?"
When Hua Luoyu came back to her senses, she couldn't help but stretched out her hand and pinched him, and said viciously: "Do you want to scare sister to death?"
"Are you afraid?" Li Ye looked at her and asked.
"Nonsense, I'm scared to death! Who is the prince? Do you want to rebel?" Hua Luoyu continued.
After taking two sips of tea, Li Ji ignored the two's sighs and took out his long sword, placed it on the table and pushed it in front of Hua Tianxia. "This is what I promised my eldest brother before, and I finally lived up to my promise."
Hua Tianxia was shocked. He reached out and picked up the long sword, gently pulled out a section, took a breath of air and said: "This sword is not weaker than Feng Ming and Qing Luan, little guy, are you powerful?"
Li Ye smiled and said: "I cast three swords this time, and the heaviest one was given to my wife. Yours is estimated to be about forty-five kilograms, and my mother's is forty kilograms. All three are considered epees. You You have to get used to it again.”
Hua Tianxia nodded, stroked the scabbard and asked, "This scabbard alone is a unique treasure in the five realms!"
Li Ye shook his head, sighed and said: "This is the demon python skin from the middle to late stage of distraction. It is naturally a treasure that cannot be seen in the five realms."
Hua Luoyu next to her took his hand and said unwillingly: "You only have the elder sister in your heart, don't you have me as the second elder sister?"
When Li Ye heard this, he sighed again and said softly: "These are the materials found from Tianshan Mountain. They are only enough to make three swords. Even if the weight of the three swords is not the same, what do you want me to do?" ?”
Hua Tianyi nodded when he heard this, looked at Hua Luoyu and said, "Sister Beipi, this is a private deal between your brother-in-law and the Imperial Master, and it involves a major matter between the Tianshan Sword Sect and the Nangong family in the Buddhist capital..."
Nalan Yu did not hide this matter from his wife, and finally told her about Nangong Feiyan.
Li Ye let out a long sigh: "No matter how many swords I make, I can't satisfy my relatives and friends around me. How can I get so many materials from the five regions?"
After speaking, he took out the cloth bag, took out two luminous pearls and gave one to each of them.
"I haven't been in the imperial city these years, so this is the New Year's money I gave to my two sisters." Li Ye said with a faint smile. He still has a lot of things like this, all of which are property he received in unknown places.
As he was about to leave, he wanted to leave a good memory for his friends around him.
Hua Luoyu held the night pearl in her hand and looked at the sunshine outside the window again and again. After a long while, she sighed softly and said, "If you don't mind that my sister is a few years older than you, my sister will marry you."
When Li Ye heard this, he said "Pfft!" and sprayed the tea he had just drank on the ground. Pointing at Hua Luoyu, he smiled and said, "Sister, are you trying to murder me?"
Hua Tianxia looked at the appearance of the two of them and couldn't help but smile: "It's not impossible. It's not a grievance for my Luo Yu to marry you. How about you take in an extra wife? We won't mind."
Hua Luoyu glanced at him, blushed and said, "Sister, I'm serious. Don't laugh at me."
When Li Ye heard this, he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion. Looking at the two people, he said: "Sister Hua, you and your eldest brother should have a child. If you leave, the child can be sent to the Sword Sect to enjoy the feeling of being a mother instead of just practicing."
Then he looked at Hua Luoyu and said, "Sister, if you don't think I'm in too much trouble, I'll give you an explanation when I come back from the Beihai battlefield."
After getting along for many years, Li Ye's feelings for Hua Luoyu are different from those of his sister and Mu Mu. In his eyes, Hua Luoyu is more like his sister, with a hint of mother's warmth.
When Hua Luoyu heard this, she couldn't help but shed tears. She looked at him and asked, "Is this battlefield in Beihai so scary? Even your brother is in danger? Do you want my sister to go with you?"
Li Ye shook his head, looked at the two of them and said seriously: "Tonight I invite my family to come to the flower house for a reunion. Sisters, please don't say sad words. Okay? Just think of it as me begging you."
"Tell me honestly, will my sect be in danger?" Hua Tianxia looked at Li Ye and asked in a serious voice.
Li Ye smiled bitterly and replied: "I promise to return my eldest brother to my sister completely. What I said has nothing to do with this war."
Hua Tianxia then nodded with satisfaction and replied: "You have to be careful when you go to the front line. My sister and I are here waiting for you two to return triumphantly."
Hua Luoyu took his hand and said, "Don't make me sad!"
