There was deathly silence in front of Chengtian Palace. Everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. Even Xu Zizhen was dumbfounded. Didn't Qingniu come to help the Xiao family? Why did he turn against him in the face of battle?
"I'll kill you!" Xiao Butao was stunned for a moment and then burst out with a scream. As if he was crazy, he drew his knife and rushed towards Qing Niu. Qing Niu kicked him backwards with just one kick.
After they got out, the team of bodyguards and horsemen were finally unable to maintain their noble posture, and they all roared and wanted to surround Qingniu. But as soon as they moved, Sanjuetang and others had already protected Qingniu and raised their crossbows to aim at it.
Their arrows were shining with black light, and they were obviously poisoned. The horse soldiers immediately stopped their bodies and stared angrily, but did not dare to take another step forward.
Xu Zizhen noticed one thing. The people who came to Sanjue Hall this time were all martial arts. Judging from the ripples on their clothes, the lowest ones were from the earth level. There were nearly ten heavenly levels with four bars, and the total was about forty.
With many people around, such a fighting force may not be effective if placed on the battlefield, but at this place in front of the Chengtian Palace, the infantry cannot form a formation, and the cavalry cannot charge forward. It is purely based on skill. These four
More than ten people are almost invincible.
Xiao Buta was already a little unable to stand up. Qingniu's kick and the pain of losing his son made him seem to have aged more than ten years. He looked at Xiao Yan's body with dull eyes. Xu Zizhen suddenly felt a little pity for him and struggled to stop him.
La Di has been planning for so many years, just to become the emperor and to pass the throne to his son in the future, but now the situation is over.
Qing Niu ignored them and turned around to come to Xu Zizhen with a smile on his face, but he had no intention of returning Li Luoyan to Xu Zizhen. The sharp blade was still placed on Li Luoyan's neck. Xu Zizhen wanted to scold her. He
I really couldn't understand what Qing Niu meant. Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Bao screamed: "Qing Niu, what do you mean?"
Xiao Ji has long since lost her majestic demeanor, and is left with only anger and frustration, because she has already calculated the situation on the court, and Sanjuetang will be the last force to crush Chongzong. Before that,
No matter what kind of advantage Chongzong gained, it didn't matter, but now it was completely beyond her expectation. She understood that everything was over with Qing Niu's betrayal.
Qingniu actually greeted Xu Zizhen very politely: "Mr. Xu, please stay a little longer." Xu Zizhen nodded, Qingniu turned back to look at Xiao Ji and smiled slightly, "Don't you, the Xiao family, plan to secretly recruit me, Sanjuetang?
I just struck first to gain advantage, so what’s wrong with that?”
Xiao Ji's face suddenly turned ugly. Qing Niu was right. Master Xiao had already discussed this matter with her and had taken action early. Many people in Sanjue Hall had been secretly bribed by them.
, just waiting for a suitable opportunity to kill Qingniu and annex the entire Sanjuetang.
Qingniu ignored Xiao Zhen again, but turned to Xu Zizhen with a smile: "I have been busy cleaning up the traitors in the hall recently, so I failed to tell you sir earlier. I hope you will forgive me."
Before Xu Zizhen could say anything, Qingniu suddenly took out a cloth bag from his waist and handed it over. It was bulging. When Xu Zizhen untied it, he was shocked. It turned out to be a human head, padded with lime, and the blood had already dried.
, with a bun on her head, and her face looked vaguely familiar.
"This is... Eunuch Luo?" Xu Zizhen recognized it. Isn't this Eunuch Luo, the supervisor of the army in Lanzhou City? Qingniu is indeed very resourceful and courageous. He actually dared to sneak into Lanzhou to kill the imperial officials and bring their heads to him.
Yes, but showing courtesy for nothing, either committing adultery or stealing, Xu Zizhen did not believe that he would give such a favor to him for no reason, "Brother Qingniu, what do you mean?"
Qingniu pointed at the head and said, "This man and Xiao Buta secretly conspired to frame Mr. I couldn't stand it, so I took action on Mr.'s behalf."
Xu Zizhen cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your work, but I haven't taken this bastard seriously yet. It doesn't matter whether you kill him or not. If you don't suffer any consequences, just clean up the Xiao family for me."
Qingniu smiled: "Originally, I wanted to hand over these rebellious officials and traitors to the master, but since the master has spoken, I will naturally obey."
Xu Zizhen finally couldn't help it anymore: "Brother Qingniu, why are you so polite to me?"
"Because I want to make friends with you sir." A very sincere smile hung on Qingniu's face, so that Xu Zizhen couldn't see a trace of hypocrisy at all. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Xiao Buta and Xiao Bao, smiling.
He pulled it away, murderous intent looming in his eyes.
Xiao Bao screamed: "Yelü Dashi, how dare you!"
Xu Zizhen heard these four words clearly in his ears, and felt a bang in his head. He was stunned: "You...are you Yelu Dashi?"
Yelu Dashi smiled slightly and his eyes flashed: "Exactly."
Xu Zizhen opened his mouth and was stunned for a long time, then blurted out: "Holy crap! I've been looking for you all over the world, so you're here?"
"Oh? Sir, you are looking for me? I don't know why?" Yelu Dashi was still smiling, but his smile was a little unnatural. It was just Xu Zizhen's next words that made him stop laughing, not for anything else, but for him
I was really scared.
"What's the matter? You are my God of Wealth. How can I not look for you?"
Now it was Yelu Dashi's turn to be dumbfounded. He looked at Xu Zizhen blankly, not knowing what he meant. Xu Zizhen found that he seemed a little anxious. He coughed dryly to cover up and said: "Take care of this place first, let us find a place."
Let’s have a good chat.”
"Hahaha!" Xiao Butao suddenly stood up straight again, looking up to the sky and laughing, but his voice was full of sadness, which sounded more uncomfortable than crying, "Li Qianshun, Xu Zizhen, and Yelu Dashi, do you think I am dead?"
Is it done?”
Chongzong was still expressionless, Yelu Dashi didn't even look at him, and Xu Zizhen wanted to ignore him, but he still got curious: "Can't you die?"
Xiao Butao's eyes showed a ferocious look: "Even if you kill me, you won't be able to stop my army of tigers and wolves outside the city. When the time comes, your bones will be reduced to ashes!"
Chongzong finally spoke and said slowly: "If you rely on the various military commanders, it is impossible to do so." As he spoke, he clapped his hands and someone came from behind.
"See Your Majesty!"
"Get flat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The man stood up straight, turned around, glanced at Xiao Butao, and said calmly: "Grand Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"
"You...you you!" Xiao Butu was shocked. The man in front of him was actually Yu Size, the former commander of the Eastern Expeditionary Army who had been sent to the prison to be executed. Chongzong once got angry at the court and beat him in public.
He was in the Heavenly Prison, but now he is here again, and he is full of energy and does not look embarrassed at all. It is obvious that Chongzong did not really intend to punish him.
Yuan Size smiled: "Did the Tiger and Wolf divisions mentioned by the Grand Master just now refer to the various military divisions? If so... I'm afraid they won't be able to help the Grand Master today because they are already guests in Yun's mansion."
