Those who ascend the altar are not allowed to wear swords, otherwise they will be considered disrespectful to God.

Only Emperor Liang De could hold a sword.

But it just so happens that the knife is still in the assassin's hand right now...

Emperor Liang De's face was gloomy, he grabbed the bamboo pole and pulled it hard. The sheep hanging on the bamboo pole hit him.

"Pfft".

The blade of the knife sank into the sheep's body.

The assassin quickly pulled it out without any hesitation, and immediately rushed towards Emperor Liang De.

But at this time, the people carrying the cattle and sheep also rushed forward.

The soldiers on the periphery pushed aside the crowd and squeezed towards the altar. They held long spears... but they bumped into the armor of the guards.

The guards guarding the inner circle turned around in shock and anger, and the two sides exchanged hands.

how so?

There are actually assassins among these soldiers!

Suddenly the ministers were in chaos, shouting and running: "Protect me! Protect me!"

"There are assassins in the Longwu Army!"

But this time, Prince Xuan and He Songning ran up the long stairs almost at the same time.

Take one step and you will pass three or four steps.

Just when King Xuan was about to rush to Emperor Liang De's side, he paused and blocked the spear that was extending diagonally with his backhand.

Therefore, He Songning quickly arrived at Emperor Liang De's side.

Blood splattered three feet high.

As if his eyes were red with blood, the big knife in his hand sank into the assassin's chest, pulled it out, and then sank it into the abdomen again.

Repeat several times and move very quickly.

The assassin's body seemed to have been smashed in the blink of an eye. He fell heavily from the steps, twitched twice, and became motionless.

Xue Qingyin watched from a distance, her breath suffocating.

If she had been holding such a knife in her hand... Oh, forget it, such a knife was too big, and she would not be able to hold it steady, and it would be difficult for her to stab it with such force.

"Princess, it's better not to look at it, it's too bloody." Someone came over and closed the curtain for Xue Qingyin.

Xue Qingyin thought to herself, “My husband is inside, so how can I say I won’t watch it?”

She grabbed the car curtain: "...I, I'm worried about my father."

The guard standing guard outside the car window had no choice but to stop.

But wait until Xue Qingyin looks up again.

"All the assassins have been killed!" He Songning shouted from the high platform.

King Xuan cleaned the outer perimeter, and He Songning cleaned the inner perimeter.

The guards are also well trained.

It seemed that in just one breath, the dust settled.

Xue Qingyin breathed out: "It's fine if you're not hurt."

It’s good that King Xuan was not injured.

She was afraid that he would be distracted by her being here.

"Your Majesty, you are frightened." Emperor Liang De raised his eyes and looked down at the crowd, speaking in a low voice.

The ministers recovered from the tremors and knelt down one after another: "Your Majesty is in good health, and I will wait with peace of mind until death."

The sound of armor and weapons clashing sounded in my ears.

The ministers raised their heads tremblingly, and saw the well-trained guards coming down to collect the body.

"The sacrifices continue." Emperor Liang De said solemnly.

"Your Majesty?" The ministers looked shocked.

Emperor Liang De turned around and brushed off the blood on his clothes nonchalantly: "If the time is auspicious, I will use this blood to recommend the heaven and earth to Xuanyuan."

The ministers opened their mouths, trembled, and finally failed to persuade him any further.

He Songning just stood aside, his hands trembling slightly, and his body trembling slightly.

My feet were wet.

The blood seemed to have soaked into his shoes and socks, giving him an indescribable sticky and uncomfortable feeling.

The wind blew by, bringing with it an unpleasant fishy smell.

He watched Emperor Liang De complete the sacrificial ceremony in front of him.

After the ceremony, they did not leave immediately. Emperor Liang De immediately ordered officials from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment to investigate the origins of the assassins on the spot.

Besides, no unnecessary words were said.

He did not say "Xue Ning did a great job in protecting me" or "Xue Ning saved me".

After walking off the high platform, Emperor Liang De asked the imperial guard on the side: "How is Princess Xuan? Is she frightened?"

The guard replied: "No, I'm just a little worried about your majesty's safety. I'm really relieved to see that your majesty is not injured."

Emperor Liang De showed a smile.

He Songning walked behind and couldn't help laughing.

Liang Dedi then walked to Xue Qingyin's car under heavy protection. He did not roll up the car curtain first, but turned around and glanced at Fang Chengzhong, who was still blocked at the other end.

"He is a loyal subordinate. He still remembers to protect the princess for their master." Emperor Liang De said coldly, then raised his hand and knocked on the car window, "Qingyin, come down."

Xue Qingyin got out of the carriage and asked cautiously: "Is everything okay?"

"Nothing happens. Let's rest in the other palace for now." Emperor Liang De said.

Xue Qingyin nodded.

The group of people went to the villa near Yuanqiu.

"Where is King Xuan?" Xue Qingyin walked out for a while and looked back.

She could catch a glimpse of King Xuan, standing there like a spear rising from the ground, sharp and sharp.

"He has a lot of things to deal with, and he will naturally come to us after the treatment is completed." Liang Dedi said lightly.

Xue Qingyin cursed in her heart, she just won't let us see her, right?

Then why did you ask me to come?

The villa next to the circular mound was built very large, and Xue Qingyin was carried into the palace on a sedan chair.

As soon as he entered the palace, Emperor Liang De ordered the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat He Songning.

He Songning sat there numbly, with no expression on his face. He even forgot to say "Thank you, Your Majesty".

The imperial doctor lifted up his clothes: "...I hurt my shoulder, but fortunately it's not serious."

The imperial doctor said and handed the medicine to the chamberlain beside him, who knelt next to him and gave He Songning the medicine.

Emperor Liang De responded: "Yes." Then he asked the guard on the side: "Was the Seventh Prince frightened today?"

The guard whispered: "It seems that he was frightened, but he still stood there steadily."

"Good! It looks a bit royal!" Emperor Liang De praised it.

He Songning suddenly interrupted: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty said before that you would reward me. I wonder what your Majesty will reward me?"

His tone was strange, with a kind of empty coldness.

The palace people were frightened unconsciously after hearing this. The atmosphere was strange...

"Step back." Emperor Liang De said to the palace attendants.

The palace servants nodded hurriedly and walked out. Even the imperial doctor quickly picked up the medicine box and walked out.

But after they walked out, several guards walked in.

Seeing this battle, He Songning's pupils opened, and the gloomy look in his eyes became more intense.

"I want to reward you...haven't you already seen it?" Emperor Liang De said indifferently.

"Have you seen it?" He Songning looked around blankly.

Xue Qingyin: "...me?"

The air was silent for a moment.

But no one responded to Xue Qingyin's voice at this moment.

He Songning lowered his head and asked: "Your Majesty, when will it be until when can I, like the seventh prince, kneel in front of the ancestral tablet and salute as a matter of course? Or... I can't wait for that day in my life?"
To be continued...
