Chapter 138 Hot Hands
The interaction between Jin Yiwei and his son next to him did not affect Zhu Youxiao. He just looked at Xili quietly, with a trace of nostalgia in his eyes, and Wang's figure flashed in his mind.
The atmosphere became a little strange and solemn. As time passed, Zhu Huiti, the eighth daughter of the emperor, also calmed down a little. In the palace, even though she was well protected by Xili, she matured earlier than ordinary children. Although she
She didn't understand why this shocking battle happened tonight, but it didn't stop her from understanding that her brother, the prince, had the upper hand now.
Suddenly, she shook her little hand hard and broke free of Xili's hand. Then she ran over, knelt down in front of Zhu Youxiao, hugged his legs and cried loudly, "Brother, Prince
Brother, please spare my mother, please spare my mother."
Next to him, Li Tu, who had been guarding him all the time, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this situation, and inserted the slightly unsheathed sword back into his body.
The little girl's cries seemed extremely desolate in the silent night sky. She screamed and begged with all her strength, hoping to get a chance for her mother. Luo Sigong next to her shook her head helplessly, and didn't say anything else.
In this mutiny tonight, Xi Li will definitely die.
Zhu Youxiao's legs struggled a little, but he didn't break free from the little girl's hands. He tried to move forward, but he couldn't move. His move made the little girl hug him even harder, making him almost unable to move.
"Li Tu!" Zhu Youxiao's calm voice came from under the armor.
Li Tu understood what he meant, stepped forward and bent down, grabbed the little girl's arm, and tried to drag her away. However, after pulling twice, he couldn't move her at all. The little girl was like an octopus, with both hands.
He used all his strength to wrap his legs tightly around Zhu Youxiao's legs. For a moment, he did not dare to use too much force for fear of hurting the princess, and the situation became a stalemate.
Luo Sigong, who was standing next to him, winked quickly and motioned for his son to come forward. In the Jinyi Guards, there are many ways to make people's hands and feet temporarily weak and lose their strength.
Luo Yangxing nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. He took a deep breath, walked two steps quickly, stretched out his hand and pressed Zhu Huiti's waist and waist. The other person softened and was pulled down by his arms.
Without any obstacles, Zhu Youxiao stepped forward again. Behind him, the little girl cried out sadly, "Brother Prince, Brother Prince, no..."
Zhu Youxiao ignored him. He still walked with his own unique steps, step by step. Each step was very heavy and solid. Looking at his steps, eight words appeared in everyone's mind for no reason -
—Be down-to-earth and accumulate a lot of experience.
There was a constant sound of clanging armors, and the dark red bloodstains looked extremely sad under the moonlight. However, the Miao Dao in his hand had cut so many people, and the blade was still bright and shiny, without any traces, just like the same sword.
Wang Qingquan illuminates people's hearts.
"Empress, I'm going to take the first step." Xi Li didn't react at all, but Cao Huachun smiled bitterly and took out a dagger from his arms. This was the escape route he left for himself, in case the prince really fell into the trap one day.
With your hands, you can kill yourself without having to suffer torture.
Over the years, he had just been accustomed to keeping this dagger. He thought that if he came here tonight, he would be able to get rid of the terrifying figure that woke him up every night, but he didn't expect that it would end up like this.
Poof!
Cao Huachun raised the knife and lowered it. The right hand holding the dagger stabbed his left chest resolutely and accurately into his heart. The cruel technique killed him instantly, and he never breathed again.
Blood slowly emerged from the wound, soaked his chest, and then spread continuously. The lifeless body fell softly against the wall and fell down.
"Ugh..." Xili next to her covered her mouth and let out a sob. She thought that she could face everything calmly with her full of resentment. However, someone really died in front of them, and it was someone she was close to and familiar with. , all her courage suddenly disappeared.
When she thought that she would be like this later, she was so frightened that her whole body became cold. She was so cold that she even felt that the wall behind her that was cold just now became warm.
Cao Huachun's decisive suicide made Zhu Youxiao pause for a moment. He was really surprised that the other party would make such a choice. But it was only for a moment, his fate was already doomed.
After a slight pause, he took another step, walked the rest of the way, and stood in front of Xili.
Squeak, the gate of the Qianqing Palace was opened. When Zhu Youxiao was lost in his memories, the elite members of the Jinyiwei who were good at climbing over eaves and walls had already climbed to the top using ropes like Arhats, captured the imperial guards guarding the gate, and opened the palace gate.
"Ms. Li, you killed my mother back then, and today is your day of death. Do you have any last words?" Zhu Youxiao raised his head, his eyes as bright as sparks, and pronounced Xi Li's death sentence as soon as he opened his mouth. With decisive words, Completely extinguishing the last trace of fantasy in Xili's heart.
However, before Xi Li could react, after her daughter heard what she said, her wailing voice rose in vain. The cry exceeded the limit of the little girl's voice. After a few moments, her voice became hoarse and she could only make a hoarse sound. Hissing cries. The little girl kept struggling, trying to break free from Luo Yangxing's hands. However, the strength of a martial arts practitioner was beyond what a child of about 6 years old could contend with.
Xi Li raised her head and looked at Zhu Youxiao in front of her. Cao Huachun's death and her daughter's crying had long since dissipated the resentment in her heart. Knowing that she could not survive, she calmed down.
"The Ai family has nothing to ask for. I just ask the prince to treat my daughter well and find a good family to marry her to." Xili finished his last words, then let go of Zhu Youjian, who had been holding him, and walked forward for two seconds He stepped forward and stood calmly in front of Zhu Youxiao, stretching his head to wait for death.
Zhu Youxiao didn't say anything. The hatred between the two people was needless to say. He raised the long sword in his right hand, and in Zhu Huiti's desperate and sad eyes, the sword was cut down like a sword.
puff!
Hot blood rose into the sky, and a head was three feet above the ground, flying in the air, and then fell to the ground. The splashing blood flew everywhere, and some of it splashed on Zhu Youjian's face next to him.
"Gah~"
He reached out and touched his wet head and face, and put it in front of his eyes. The entire white palm turned blood red. Unsurprisingly, the little boy rolled his eyes, the whites of his eyes were exposed, and fainted.
Gululu.
The head rolled around a few times and stopped with the face facing upward. Xi Li closed her eyes tightly and her face was calm. It was obvious that she had no regrets in her heart.
"Mother!"
A shrill and desperate cry rang out. The hoarse voice was like a broken bellows. Almost no one believed that it was coming from a little girl. Zhu Huiti was tearing and beating frantically. Luo Yangxing was not aware of it and was suddenly gushed by her. Break away vigorously.
The little girl rushed over desperately, hugged her mother's head, threw herself to the ground, and cried loudly. However, her voice was already hoarse, and she could not make a sound at all, and tears kept pouring out of her eyes.
, his mouth kept opening and closing to sob, but there was no sound.
The silent crying made all the adults present feel their hearts sink, as if something heavy was weighing on their hearts. Luo Yangxing, who originally wanted to rush over and grab the little girl, saw this scene and subconsciously stopped.
He stopped in his tracks.
"Another head." Qi Jin and Yu Zigao had different emotions. Having seen so many dead people and misery, they didn't care at all about the little girl's sadness and Xili's death. What they cared about more was, on the contrary,
The way Zhu Youxiao killed people caught their attention.
It was like this at the Saltworks stop five years ago. His Royal Highness the Prince rushed into battle and beheaded, and the heads of the enemy chieftains were raised to the sky. The same method was used in the killing ceremony flag not long ago, and it is still the case now.
"This..." The two looked at each other, wondering what this meant.
Zhu Youxiao stood silently and killed his enemy, but there was no joy in his heart. Looking at his sister who was crying so hard that she couldn't make a sound, he didn't know what he was feeling at the moment. Sour? Regret? Silent?
It seems that there are both, but it seems that there are none. However, he knows that tonight's killing is just the beginning. Tomorrow and in the future, he will have more people to kill.
This has nothing to do with morality. If he wants to save the tragedy of the entire China, he must keep killing people, keep killing people, until he can't kill anymore.
"Oh oh oh!"
A rooster appeared out of nowhere and strode forward. As it walked, it stretched its neck and croaked loudly. Under its crowing, a trace of white fish belly appeared on the horizon.
Then, the entire outline of the sun jumped out.
Its daybreak!
The morning light slowly emerged, and there was more and more sunshine. The morning sun shone on Zhu Youxiao, making him feel warm all over. It was as if the gloom in his heart had been swept away, and his whole body and mind felt relaxed.
"Li Yuyu, Li Tao! Start checking the palace! Xie Gao, Zhang Ya, take over the palace gate!" Zhu Youxiao turned around, called the names one by one, called the four battalion commanders over, and gave instructions in a low voice.
"Yes!" After a while, the four of them clasped their fists and took the order. They each led their own soldiers and the search experts selected by the Jin Yiwei to start the search. According to Zhu Youxiao, this was an attack on the palace.
In a major purge, not only the defeated Forbidden Army soldiers, but also all the eunuchs and maids will be screened, and all their private collections of gold and silver, palace utensils and even weapons will be the focus of the search.
As for the remaining members of the Jin Yiwei, it is more difficult. Their task is to clean up the corpses. A shocking mutiny can be said to have caused the order of the entire palace to collapse. Not to mention that there are no extra manpower to deal with the corpses, so these Jin Yiwei can only suffer.
Now, I will play a guest role as a scavenger and clean up the battlefield.
Regarding this task, Luo Sigong was not too frustrated, and happily took his son to do it. For him, as long as His Highness the Crown Prince could use him for something, everything would be fine.
As for Zhu Youxiao himself, he led the cavalry company to collect the wounded soldiers. He knew very well that the Yulin Army was his most important honor guard at present and must be treated favorably. Moreover, with him in charge, he could handle it better.
