Mu Wanxi's eyes were always on Long Chenyun, her cheeks were as red as a peach since she saw Long Chenyun. When she thought that the person who wanted her body was the prince, her heart quickened rapidly, as if
It's like breaking free from restraints and jumping out of the throat.
But Long Chenyun's eyes glanced at Long Chenyi from time to time, turning a blind eye to Mu Wanxi's fiery eyes, and even a little disgusted. On such an important occasion, Mu Wanxi ignored the etiquette and kept staring at him, a grown man.
Look, it certainly makes him feel embarrassed.
During the banquet, all the ministers raised their glasses and toasted to the emperor. They all used up their New Year's speeches, saying that the country was prosperous and the world was peaceful. The emperor was very happy, and he drank the wine very excitedly. On the surface, it looked peaceful and festive.
The banquet was turbulent in the dark, with murderous intent hidden behind it.
There are festive songs and dances in the palace, and it is even more lively outside the palace. There are huge crowds of people, various lantern festivals, poetry gatherings on the stage, and moon-viewing friendship gatherings. It is much more lively than inside the palace. The streets of the capital are crowded with people, and the river is constantly flowing. On the Qingcheng River
The lights are swaying, and the lanterns are like stars in the dark night, shining brightly and floating farther and farther on the river.
At this time, a beam of light suddenly appeared on the riverside and flew into the dark night. There was a "bang" sound, and extremely beautiful fireworks spread out in the night sky. The little lights were like shooting stars that flashed by, followed by countless streaks.
The beams of light flew into the night sky, and the sky was filled with colorful fireworks, which immediately lit up the night sky.
The riverside was crowded with people watching the fireworks. Everyone had smiles on their faces and unspoken excitement to welcome this prosperous year. Several men in black walked out of the crowd.
They came out, looked at each other, and then ran in the same direction.
At this time, the palace was also full of jubilation, and above the head were bright and colorful fireworks blooming in the sky above the palace. There were so many fireworks and the scene was grand. For a time, the entire square was shrouded in beautiful and dreamy fireworks, like
There was a beautiful rain of fireworks.
Everyone's eyes were looking at the dazzling fireworks in the night sky, but no one noticed that the wine bottle in front of Concubine Xian had already been tampered with. However, in this scene, it seemed that she was looking at the night sky with no trace of her eyes.
Long Chen, who was secretly checking the surrounding situation, also saw this. He remained calm and just made a gesture to the people in the dark from a corner where others could not see.
The person in the dark, after receiving the instructions, quickly ran towards the north palace wall, took out what looked like a bamboo tube from his waist, opened the lid, and saw three beams of red light flying into the night one after another, and disappeared in an instant.
Night sky.
The troops one mile outside the city, the defenders on the imperial city, and everyone lurking in the capital and the palace, all started to take action when they saw the fireworks filling the sky.
Looking at the troops rushing in after receiving the signal from a distance, his face suddenly wrinkled. There would be troops entering the city without getting the order. Why would these troops enter the city at this time?
"Jing Duwei, there is an army in front. Didn't the emperor give an order? The army is just stationed at the border. At this moment, how can there be an army entering the city?" Tang Ran, the deputy governor, looked at the approaching army in confusion, thinking in his heart
Even confused.
Jing Lin frowned and looked at the vanguard in front of the army. He recognized the person at a glance. It turned out to be Mu Junjun's subordinates. At this time, a column of troops also came from the other direction. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Prince Bingquan's subordinates.
subordinates.
Seeing the troops getting closer and closer under the city gate, Jing Lin and Tang Ran were horrified. What could happen that could allow the two armies to enter the city at the same time? Jing Lin quickly ordered: "Everyone, listen, guard the city gate, and no one can be allowed to attack."
When people enter the city, Tang Ran quickly goes and reports to the emperor."
After Tang Ran responded, he did not dare to be negligent and quickly turned around to give the order. But at this moment, Tang Ran suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. At the same time, all the soldiers guarding the city gate gradually fell.
When Jing Lin realized it, most of the people on the city gate were dead, and half of the people were still holding bloody daggers in their hands. They took off their city defense uniforms, revealing a black suit.
In the blink of an eye, Jing Lin was the only one left on the city tower. "Who are you? How dare you mix among the city guards?" Seeing the situation and the troops under the city gate, Jing Lin already had an idea in his mind, so he asked
Looking below the tower, I saw that the city guard below the tower had fallen into a pool of blood, and the city gate was slowly opening.
They couldn't be allowed to enter the city, and without any time to think about it, Jing Lin drew his long sword and started fighting the two men in black who were standing in front of him. The other men in black all got off the tower. Not to mention Jing Lin's martial arts.
He was very tall, but not weak. Otherwise, how could he be allowed to guard the city gate? With just a few moves, he had already eliminated the two men in black.
He didn't bother running down the stairs and leaping directly from the city wall. The city gate was already wide open, and he was standing right in the middle of the city gate. In front of him was a large army, and behind him were several men in black. He was holding a long sword.
Standing sideways, guarding against attacks from both front and rear, "Commander, I would like to ask if you have a decree from the emperor. Without the emperor's decree, troops stationed on the border cannot enter the city privately. What do you want to do when you break into the city at night?"
"Jing Duwei, we are just entering the city with good fortune, and we have nothing to do. You'd better get out of the way, otherwise the sword has no eyes." Under Mu Bing'ao, Deputy General Li Cheng looked serious and arrogant, obviously he didn't care about Jing.
Lin Jinglin took it seriously, but in fact he didn't need to take Jinglin seriously at all.
"In this case, the general has no orders from the emperor. He is going to lead troops to attack the city. Do you want to rebel?" Jing Lin pointed his sword at Li Cheng. Everyone who guarded the city gate was killed.
A group of people have all gone back. Now, he is left alone to fight against the enemies in front and behind. He knows that he cannot stop them, but he still has to fight to the death. Even if he dies, he cannot let these people enter the city.
"Stop talking nonsense, block the way into the city, and kill without mercy." Li Cheng gave the order, and tens of thousands of troops behind him surged away like a flood that burst a dike, but the few men in black left at this time.
Jing Lin swung his long sword, killing one person with one sword, but he also killed dozens of people in the blink of an eye. No matter how powerful he was, his two fists could not withstand four hands. He was soon surrounded by layers of soldiers, and he had already been hit by dozens of people.
The knife was about to fall, but suddenly there was a turning point.
I don’t know where, a group of men in black suddenly appeared. Yes, they were wearing the same black clothes as those who killed the city guards. This group of people were of extraordinary stature, and each of them was a top expert. In just a few minutes, the city gate
There were hundreds of corpses lying in front of him. Just when Li Cheng was about to take action, the man in black suddenly grabbed the seriously injured Jing Lin and left quickly.
The crowds of people on the streets of the capital city all ran around as if running for their lives when they saw this scene. The streets of the capital city, which were originally bustling with activity, soon became mostly empty. The few people who were still there closed up their stalls and fled, and some who had no time had to abandon their stalls.
He was running around like headless flies for his life.
