News of the martial arts battle between the Five Emperors and Cang Hongshen spread throughout the capital.
Not only is the inner city, the imperial city, a hubbub, but the outer city is also basically known to everyone.
However, since the city defense formation was activated in the imperial city, people from the outer city could not enter the imperial city at all, and everyone felt regretful and helpless.
At this moment, the five high mountains around the Emperor Lake in the Five Emperors Mountains are full of people and bustling. .??.
As soon as the news of the fighting came out, countless people in the inner city flocked to see this peak battle.
Most people no longer care about why the two have this battle. What they care about is who will win this battle.
Of course, most people believe that the Five Emperors have a greater chance of winning. After all, the Five Emperors are all high-level Martial Emperors, and they are five people.
Although Cang Hongshen is a high-level imperial master, he is just a person.
To fight one against five is obviously overestimating one's own capabilities!
"The Chief Assistant is too impulsive! Although he is a veteran of two dynasties and has very senior qualifications, it does not mean that he is so powerful! The five His Majesty's are the five strongest people recognized by the Holy Dynasty!"
"It's true that he was impulsive. Fighting one against five is asking for death. But the chief minister has no choice. If he doesn't take this step, won't he also have to face the Five Emperors and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?"
"..."
Near the Five Emperors Mountain, everyone was talking and lamenting. Many people were aggrieved for Cang Hongshen and believed that the traitorous label on his head was forcibly placed on him by the Five Emperors.
After all, Cang Hongshen has indeed done practical things for the people over the years, and he is honest and upright, and is deeply loved by the people. In addition, during this period of time, there were rumors in the capital.
Most of the warriors who came to watch had no doubts about Cang Hongshen's character.
But they speak softly, so what if they know that Cang Hongshen was wronged? In front of the authority of the Five Emperors, they are as insignificant as ants.
Therefore, most people are silently cheering for Cang Hongshen, hoping that the latter can win this competition. Fight to survive.
On a mountain to the north, the imperial army led the cabinet to the top of the mountain.
The people responsible for looking after the cabinet are Shangshu Ling Kouji and the six ministers. In order to prevent the people in the cabinet from running away, they also put a restraint on everyone.
"Qi Yan! After all, Chief Minister Cang is also a thoughtful and wise man. I didn't expect that he would also challenge the five majesties when he was confused. I really don't know what he was thinking!"
Shangshu Ling Kou Si looked sarcastically at Qi Yan, the leader of the cabinet, with a mocking smile on his lips.
Qi Yan was silent. In fact, he did not expect that Cang Hongshen would challenge the Five Emperors. Originally, he thought that Cang Hongshen would fight to the death against the Palace of the Five Emperors and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty according to the original plan?
But the result was a sudden change of mind, which made Qi Yan full of doubts and confusion.
Not only Qi Yan, but the other four bachelors and others in the cabinet also looked confused.
The people of Qianfo Sect and Sha Demon Sect, who were already prepared to die, were even more confused as to what Cang Hongshen's plan was.
This is different from what they said!
And they don't have much confidence in Cang Hongshen's combat power, although they all know that Cang Hongshen is a high-level imperial master.
If it's one-on-one, the high-level Imperial Master has a considerable advantage over the high-level Martial Emperor, but the problem is that the former is facing five extremely powerful high-level Martial Emperors, the top five Martial Emperors of the Holy Dynasty.
Even those in the cabinet don't think Cang Hongshen has a great chance of winning.
"That's it! I'm ready to sacrifice anyway! Since the result is the same, why bother with the process!" Qi Yan shook his head secretly and murmured rather self-deprecatingly in his heart.
The only thing that makes Qi Yan helpless is that the people from Qianfo Sect and Sha Demon Sect are all imprisoned, and they may not even be able to commit suicide.
Once Cang Hongshen loses, the Thousand Buddhas Sect, Sha Mo Sect and others will fall into the hands of the Five Emperors, and they will be taken to the Dragon Burial Cave for blood sacrifice, which will greatly increase the chance of Demon Saint Yaksha escaping from trouble.
Only this point made Qi Yan very dissatisfied!
He felt that Cang Hongshen changed the plan without consulting them, which resulted in Qianfo Sect and Sha Demon Sect falling into the hands of the Five Emperors. Cang Hongshen should bear the main responsibility.
Kou Si saw that Qi Yan and others were silent and the corners of their mouths were slightly raised, so he knew that they acquiesced.
It seems that Cang Hongshen's challenge to the Five Emperors this time was probably a spur-of-the-moment idea and was not discussed with other members of the cabinet at all.
Thinking of this, Kou Si felt more and more proud, secretly thinking that scheming guys like Cang Hongshen were confused sometimes, which made him feel a sense of superiority in his heart.
What Kou Si and no one else on the mountain noticed was that there was a speck of dust attached to a pile of weeds in the soft soil nearby. .??.
On another mountain, the three teams of the Liangyi Sword Sect, the Aurora Divine Sect, and the Red Sun Alliance occupy the best positions. There is a pavilion on the south side of the mountain that is completely occupied by them.
"Cang Hongshen must be an old fool! To challenge His Majesty the Five Emperors is to bring humiliation upon oneself!" Ye Jianbo of the Liangyi Sword Sect sneered repeatedly, saying bluntly that Cang Hongshen was stupid.
Lu Qian of the Aurora Divine Sect smiled lightly and said: "It is indeed unwise to fight one against five! Your Majesty, any one of the five emperors is the best among men, so it is understandable that he would challenge one of them! But he
It would be stupid to challenge five people!"
The leader of the Red Sun Alliance, Chi Ji, crossed his arms and grinned: "Perhaps Cang Hongshen has some back-up plan? Hey, he dares to come out to fight the Five Emperors. I like this kind of courage very much!"
Ye Jianbo and Lu Gan glanced at Chiji, their eyes There was a hint of disdain in his heart, but he didn't reply.
They had already experienced Chiji's vulgarity, so the two of them didn't really want to talk to Chiji, otherwise, they would be dragged to the same level of vulgarity.
On the mountain to the east, the three domain lords of the Eastern Forest Region, the Northern Wilderness Region and the Southern Barbarian Region led their teams to climb up and look.
Since Suo Yu was captured and sent to prison, the three domain lords have all become extremely silent, looking very worried.
They still didn't know why Suo Yu was suddenly taken away, and at the same time they were worried that they might be deposed by the Five Emperors for some reason and imprisoned.
"This time, Cang Hongshen had no choice but to retreat, so he must have come up with such an unwise method! He challenged the five majesties with a fight. He already has the intention of dying!"
Zou Yue, the lord of the East Forest Region, sighed softly, his eyes full of complex colors.
"I can't understand the behavior of the five His Majesties recently! Do you think it has something to do with the recent rumors? If these rumors are true, then..."
Before Dou Li, the lord of the Southern Barbarian Territory, finished speaking, he was interrupted by Luo Yibai, the lord of the Northern Wilderness Territory:
"How can you say this nonsense! Territory Lord Dou, please shut up! Do you also want to go to prison?"
Dou Li also realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly closed his mouth and stopped talking.
"After all, this is a rumor. If there is no real evidence, we can't make any assumptions! Huh? Are they coming?"
Zou Yue shook his head, feeling a little and couldn't help but look to the sky.
Not only Zou Yue, Dou Li, Luo Yibai and countless people around Wudi Mountain raised their heads and looked at the sky not far away.
There, five streams of light came in the blink of an eye and appeared on the Emperor Lake.
The vast aura dispersed, and violent ripples suddenly appeared on the originally calm lake surface.
