In the square in front of Fengtian Temple.
The bloody battle begins again.
"Kill!"
The only twenty people left around Chen Keyan, including Jian'er and Bi'er, formed a circle to protect Chen Keyan and let the three fireworks finish setting off.
when!
Dang Dang Dang Dang!
The sound of sharp weapons clashing was endless.
Screams came and went.
Blood splattered everywhere...
Chen Keyan raised one hand high, holding the three fireworks, and the other hand tightly held a long sword. The originally sharp blade was now covered with dark red blood.
She was waiting, waiting for the fireworks to finish setting off, and then immediately joined the battle group, killing every one...
The brutal bloody battle lasted for unknown length of time.
Suddenly, the rebels heard and King Li shouted loudly: "Stop!"
The battle came to an abrupt end. The rebels took a step back, stood with guns in hand, and stared at Chen Keyan, who had gathered in a group with less than ten people left.
At this time, Chen Keyan's body was covered with blood. She was not injured. It was other people's blood, but her face was ugly and there was deep sleepiness in her eyes.
Jian'er and Bi'er have been injured for a long time. Although their lives were not hurt, if this unfavorable situation continues, they may not be able to sustain it for long.
The remaining masters... there were less than ten people left. Their armors had already been dyed red, some helmets had fallen off somewhere, and their hair was disheveled. They looked particularly embarrassed.
On the other hand, look at King Li's side.
He still has more than a hundred elite soldiers left!
How to fight this?
Chen Keyan's heart gradually sank to the bottom...
"Your Majesty, these rebels are at the end of their game. Why don't we go all out and kill them all?" A minister walked up to King Li with a sinister smile on his face.
"No rush, no rush."
King Li looked calm and waved his hand. However, just when he was about to continue speaking, someone suddenly ran over quickly and said:
"Prince Qi, the personal guards of Princess Wu's Mansion, as well as some other forbidden troops, totaling more than a thousand people, are coming towards my Meridian Gate with great momentum!"
As soon as the words fell, on Chen Keyan's side, the two maids Jian'er and Bi'er were very happy. They took their princess's hand and said with a smile:
"Princess, did you hear that? Mr. Su, Mr. Su must have seen the fireworks just now and sent troops to rescue us. Princess, we are saved!"
Chen Keyan's face relaxed slightly and she nodded: "Those three fireworks were not in vain after all."
King Li raised his eyebrows, but didn't take it seriously. He still looked confident and sure of victory, and just snorted contemptuously.
However, the ministers and rebels who followed King Li were not as calm as King Li. They immediately whispered to each other, clapped their hands and discussed heatedly, and the square was in chaos.
At the gate of Fengtian Palace, the queen looked worried, but she did not go to see King Li because she believed that King Li could easily handle this situation.
On the side, the two noble concubines who were still kneeling on the ground gradually stopped crying after hearing this... Someone attacked the Meridian Gate. It's better now. Yan'er is saved!
They supported each other and almost cried with joy...
on the square.
King Li remained calm.
He glanced at the ministers who were discussing heatedly, raised his voice and shouted:
"Everyone, have you forgotten that the walls of my palace are indestructible and the gates of my palace are impregnable! There are only a thousand rebels, and they want to break through the Meridian Gate? Haha!"...
When the ministers heard this, they immediately reacted and agreed: "Yes, we forgot this section. It seems that the prince is more powerful..."
On Chen Keyan's side, Jian'er, Bi'er, and the less than ten masters, after hearing what King Li just said, their hearts that had just been relaxed became suspended again.
This is not bad.
Miyagi is not that easy to break.
Previously, the reason why King Li was able to break through the Meridian Gate was because he held the late emperor's edict in his hand...
After thinking about this
, Chen Keyan, Jian'er, Bi'er, and the two noble concubines in Fengtian Palace suddenly looked ugly, and a strong sense of crisis emerged in their hearts.
"The reason why I ordered the soldiers to stop is very simple."
King Li turned sideways and faced Chen Keyan who looked slumped.
I saw him clasping his hands behind his back, straightening his chest, and said with a sad smile:
"Then let this *** live first, so that she can see with her own eyes how her rebels, rebel ministers, relatives and friends are killed by me one by one!"
Chen Keyan gritted her teeth and scolded: "Beast!"
"Hahaha!" King Li looked up to the sky and laughed heartily:
"Go ahead and curse, this is your last chance. Before the sun rises tomorrow, you won't be able to curse even if you want to, hahahaha..."
Chen Keyan was extremely angry. Seeing King Li's arrogant look, she really wanted to rush over and kill him with a sword.
But……
Eh!
She shook it.
Could it be that tonight is destined to fail?
She fell into despair again.
It seems that for a woman to ascend the throne and become the emperor, it is indeed against the will of heaven, and God will not tolerate it. Otherwise, why would King Li make a comeback?
After so many years of hard work and planning, the final result was his own life, as well as the lives of Prince Tian, Yaoyao, Concubine Mu, Su Xian, and all his relatives and friends!
She felt very guilty.
The faces of Yaoyao, Concubine Mu, Su Xian and others flashed before his eyes.
All these consequences stem from her ambition and her failure... At this time, she couldn't help but reflect and regret. Was her original decision really wrong?
Thinking of the sadness, Chen Keyan's eyes filled with tears, and she suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. She was holding a long sword in her hand, her figure was slightly swaying, and she looked very embarrassed.
"Princess……"
The two personal maids Jian'er and Bi'er, regardless of their own injuries, supported Chen Keyan from left to right, their faces full of worry and fear.
"This s*** is crazy!"
King Li sneered from the side.
"It is difficult for a dying person not to go crazy."
One of the rebel ministers laughed heartily. He was a wide and fat man. He was none other than the prime minister named Zhao.
Prime Minister Zhao initially followed King Li. Later, after King Li fell, he followed King Tian. However, he did not expect that when King Li turned around, this man would betray his master again to seek glory.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Chen Keyan also looked up to the sky and laughed.
But suddenly, her laughter stopped, and the sad smile on her face froze slightly, then gradually disappeared, and finally turned into a real smile.
Looking up, she happened to see something——
A bird, a bird flying in the sky!
There was nothing special about the bird, mainly because it reminded her of another magical thing Su Xian had invented, the hot air balloon! ….
Su Xian will definitely fly from the sky in a hot air balloon, cross the indestructible palace walls and gates, and land directly at Fengtian Palace!
Thinking of this, Chen Keyan's originally dead heart suddenly became hot.
There is hope!
Not failed yet!
Her hanging heart began to slowly fall. As long as Su Xian's hot air balloon appeared, it would be a heaven-defying move that would directly change the situation of Nanchen and even the entire world!
However, you can't show this in front of King Li... Chen Keyan's mind was racing, she paused for a moment, and continued to smile miserably, but now she was acting.
Because she knew that the reason why King Li did not kill her was because he thought he had an absolute chance of victory. In this case, she should show disappointment, despair, or even crazy words and deeds.
If King Li notices something unusual, maybe King Li will kill someone immediately, which would be bad.
However, things often don't go as planned.
King Li's expression suddenly turned ferocious, he pointed at the two noble concubines who were still kneeling on the ground at the gate of Fengtian Palace, and loudly ordered: "Someone, bring them here."
"yes!"
The four soldiers loudly received their orders, and within a moment they brought the two concubines to the front of the formation.
Chen Keyan's expression suddenly changed, and she thought to herself, could it be that the "abnormality" just now was finally noticed by King Li? She didn't care much, her eyes were sharp, and she shouted loudly:
"You beast, what do you want to do?"
"My king's idea just now was to keep the two noble concubines so that they can clean the graves of you, Prince Tian and others."
King Li had a ferocious face, a cruel smile on his lips, and a chill in his eyes that could freeze a person, and said:
"But now, I have changed my mind... Come here, get the Ghost Head Sword. I am going to cut off Chen Keyan's mother-in-law's head in front of her!"
"If this happens, this *** will probably go even crazier... Hahahahaha, I am looking forward to that scene very much, hahahahaha..."
"Yes." A soldier turned around to get the Ghost Head Sword.
"How dare you!" Chen Keyan was furious, her voice was cold, her fists were clenched, and her eyes were very sharp. If eyes could kill, King Li would have been chopped into a ball of mud.
"Yan'er..." The two noble concubines looked horrified and their legs weakened for a while. The rebels roughly pressed them to the ground and exposed their necks for execution later.
"Concubine, don't be afraid, I will find a way to save you." Chen Keyan clenched the hilt of the sword in her hand, her whole body trembling, but she comforted the two concubines.
There had never been a moment when she was so angry.
There had never been a moment when she wanted to kill King Li so much.
There had never been a moment when she felt so... helpless.
There are still more than a hundred elite soldiers under King Li, and she... has already been unable to protect herself. Even if she desperately saves the two noble concubines, she is afraid that the losses will be extremely heavy!
The only hope now is Su Xian, who fell from the sky in a hot air balloon!
She couldn't help looking up to the sky and praying anxiously in her heart: "Master, where are you? Master, please come quickly, the two concubines are about to... I can't hold on anymore."
While Chen Keyan was praying, Jian'er, Bi'er, and the less than ten masters all glared angrily and were ready to fight to the death. ….
Among the ministers who had followed Chen Keyan before, some of them began to get excited, their eyes wandering around, silently waiting for a good opportunity.
"Hahahahaha..."
King Li looked up to the sky and smiled. He seemed to have noticed something. He suddenly turned to look at the ministers and grinned:
"I know that most of you were confused by Chen Keyan. I don't want to kill them all, so I will give you a chance now."
More than half of those ministers, about ten or so, immediately trembled and trotted to kneel down in front of King Li, and kept praying:
"I am willing to follow the prince, and I am willing to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. Please give me a chance. We will loyally support the prince and we will not dare to have second thoughts."
"Shameless, obscene! Disgraceful!" Those ministers who still followed Chen Keyan glared at this group of traitors and wanted to eat their flesh and drink their blood.
"Since ancient times, good birds have chosen trees to roost. Now the prince is at the peak of his power. If he doesn't surrender now, are he waiting to be beheaded later? You idiots, I don't bother to say another word to you."
After the traitors finished cursing with ferocious faces, when they looked back at King Li, they had already put on a flattering smile: "I am willing to swear allegiance to the prince to the death!"
"Well, you guys are pretty good."
King Li was very proud. He glanced at Chen Keyan with contempt and ridicule. He immediately waved his hand and ordered: "Everyone, get up and watch the show later."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The rebel ministers stood up in a hurry and walked behind King Li without mentioning it.
Chen Keyan watched all this silently without any expression.
She just secretly remembered the names of these traitors. If she could finally stand up, these people would be eliminated at all costs.
As for those ministers who swore to follow her to the death...this will be her future team.
.
At this time, someone entered from Fengtian Gate, ran to King Li, and loudly reported: "Prince Qi, the rebels have begun to attack the Meridian Gate, but the Meridian Gate is still impregnable, and the rebels suffered heavy casualties."
After hearing this, King Li looked up to the sky and laughed heartily again, and then looked at Chen Keyan with contempt and pride:
"Is this the backup plan you arranged? Haha, you are so vulnerable that you actually want to break through the Meridian Gate. Hahaha, I am laughing to death. The Meridian Gate is impregnable. Even if you become an immortal immediately, you can't even think of crossing the Meridian Gate even half a step! "
As soon as King Li finished speaking, the rebel ministers and rebels burst into laughter, pointing at Chen Keyan and others with very relaxed expressions.
Especially those ministers who had just surrendered, they were the ones who screamed the loudest.
"Prince Qi, the Ghost Head Sword has arrived!"
Everyone's attention was attracted, and they all turned to look. Sure enough, the soldier returned with a machete in his arms.
King Li nodded and ordered: "Be prepared and kill Chen Keyan's biological mother first."
"yes."
On Chen Keyan's side, Jian'er, Bi'er, and the less than ten masters were immediately ready to take action.
However, the rebels were well prepared. As soon as they moved, dozens of bloody spear points came over, exuding a strong cold air.
Chen Keyan was still calm and waved her hand, indicating that they should not act rashly.
Because it's futile.
Maybe, before Su Xian could bring his men to kill them, they would all be wiped out!
Reason tells Chen Keyan that she cannot act rashly now...
Soon, preparations for the execution were made. A soldier held a ghost-headed knife in both hands and stood beside Chen Keyan's mother-in-law. The concubine was kneeling on the ground, her upper body leaned forward, and her neck was exposed. She was so scared that she was full of fear. Tremble.
"By the way, I suddenly remembered that one of your helpers should be Su Xian, right?"
King Li looked at Chen Keyan with a sneer on his face: "Tonight, you group of traitors will definitely die, and then Su Xian can't even think of escaping!"
"I will definitely catch him, torture him for seventy-seven forty-nine days, then cut him out one by one, and finally crush him to ashes!"
"I guess that among the rebels attacking the city outside the Meridian Gate, there must be Su Xian. Haha, trying to break through the Meridian Gate is simply wishful thinking! Even if Su Xian flies into the sky!"
King Li's face suddenly turned ferocious, and he loudly ordered the soldiers holding the Ghost Head Sword: "Execution!"
The soldier took a deep breath, raised the ghost-headed sword high with both hands, and stared at the concubine's neck. The next moment, he would chop off the sword!
Chen Keyan closed her eyes in pain, and two lines of hot tears rolled down her cheeks.
The mother-in-law is about to die in front of her eyes, but she is powerless... Even if she finally defeats King Li and wins the throne of Nanchen, she will not be able to let go of it.
at this time--
A calm and powerful voice came from the sky: "I can't cross the Meridian Gate even if I go to heaven? Can I?!".
Governor of Ming Dynasty
