They swore a poisonous oath, and the Emperor of the Night asked them to leave the valley and follow the princess. Moreover, after following the princess, they would never have the chance to return to the Night Palace, and they would never be able to mention where they came from again for the rest of their lives.
The princess is their only relative.
A Heng was still a little insistent, but A Xian's face darkened a little, "A Heng, don't you want to see the princess ascend the throne?"
Ah Heng's face changed, "Axian, why do you say that? How could I not want the princess to achieve great things? We are here just to help the princess achieve great things."
"Then you obey the princess's order and send the dead soldiers away immediately. The princess can't wait any longer. If you are worried, just wait until the princess succeeds and then replace those people." Axian looked like he didn't want to discuss it anymore.
room.
A Heng's face turned pale and he nodded feebly, "Okay, I'll go get ready."
Ah Xian then turned from anger to joy and said, "Good Ah Heng, that's how it is. There's nothing to worry about."
Ah Heng smiled reluctantly, "I hope so."
Late one night, the north wind howled, the snow fell heavily, and it was so cold that my hands and feet were trembling.
The guards guarding the palace gate were wearing leather jackets, leather boots, and large cloaks, but they were still a little cold.
They rubbed their hands, breathed, and stamped their feet. One of them glanced at the lanterns swaying in the wind at the city gate and said, "This damn weather has caught up with the Northern Kingdom."
Another person smiled and said: "Old Chen, have you been to the North Country?"
The guard said: "I've never been there, but I've heard the old saying. They all say that dripping water turns into ice. We don't have dripping water turning into ice, but when you look at it, your jaw will drop. Especially in the middle of the night, not a single ghost is seen.
, and having so many of us guard it is really too much."
After saying that, he muttered again: "Then Tao Kun is too good at performing. He was promoted just now and he orders us around like crazy. Why doesn't he come by himself?"
Another person quickly interrupted him, "Old Chen, are you drinking too much? What are you doing? The order to strengthen the guard was given by Princess Xiao."
Old Chen snorted, "Even if it's Princess Xiao, there's not even a ghost. Besides, this is a palace gate. If the city gate has stronger guards, what does the palace gate have to do with it? It's just making a fuss out of a molehill."
There is an imperial city outside the palace gate. Who can cause trouble and come to the palace? Tired of living?
While he was talking, a guard saw a man walking in the wind and snow. The man was tall and wearing a cloak. He looked like a hill in the dark. The wind blew his black cloak, making him look more like a mysterious mountain.
hill.
This guard didn't have much status on weekdays. No one listened to him even if he said something, and he was still gossiping.
At this kind of night, the relatively remote palace gate is generally dispersed at this time. You can just go to the squad room to sleep, and then go out for regular patrols. There is no need to keep an eye on this place.
He also stared at four or five people.
So no one saw it at all, but the guard could clearly see it. In just one sentence, the black shadow actually got much closer.
He walks so fast!
The guard thought to himself, became frightened, immediately raised the spear in his hand, and shouted: "Who is it!"
Several other guards were interrupted by him and immediately cursed: "You brat, what are you doing? Where is the person?"
The guard pointed his spear into the darkness. Everyone looked over and saw that the wind was blowing snowflakes, it was dark and there was nothing there.
