Zhao Zhong sighed and said: "Jian Shuo is stubborn and has been captured."
“…..”
Hearing that Jian Shuo was not involved, Chen Cheng felt a little better. He asked loudly: "Da Changqiu, was it you who sent someone to open the Suzaku Gate?"
Zhao Zhongdao: "Just think of me."
"If you let He Jin's people in, won't you be afraid that he will kill you as well?"
Zhao Zhong smiled bitterly and said, "How could you not be afraid?"
Guo Sheng walked out of the Jiade Hall and shouted, "What else did you say to him?"
He said proudly to Chen Cheng: "People named Chen, you have no way to escape now. If you know what's going on, put down your weapons and capture them without mercy!"
Chen Cheng looked at Guo Sheng with contempt and said to Zhao Zhong: "Why do you do this if you are afraid that He Jin will not let you go?"
Zhao Zhong hid behind the pillars and said loudly: "Julu Hou, we know that your shooting skills are unparalleled, but the matter has already come to this, why say more? You can leave the palace before the general's troops arrive.
Run for your life!"
Yan Zhong said in a low voice: "Without the two palaces and the prince, we can't take our rightful position!"
Chen Cheng snorted coldly and took two steps forward. Zhao Zhong saw him from behind the pillars, fearful in his heart, and shouted: "Kill him!"
The two sides had already tensed up their nerves and drew their crossbows to aim at each other. After hearing his order, arrows suddenly flew in front of the palace. Several knights were unable to evade and were nailed to the ground by crossbows. On the steps.
, several soldiers screamed and fell down.
Chen Cheng ignored the arrows that kept falling around him, drew his bow in his hand, and calmly eliminated the archers on the opposite side one by one.
"when!"
The crossbow arrow hit his chest, and the powerful impact interrupted his movements. The arrow deviated from the target and pierced the Qiang next to Guo Sheng. The arrow penetrated the wood for three points, and the feathers at its tail trembled. Guo Sheng
He was so frightened that he fell to the ground, turned around and crawled into the hall.
Chen Cheng was about to draw his bow again when a sudden pain hit his face, but he was hit by an arrow. He raised his head back and took two steps back to stabilize his body.
"General!"
"Junhou!"
Yue Qi, who was ten steps away, exclaimed with other subordinates, and Yan Zhong shouted: "It's too dangerous, get out first!"
"pain!"
The Iron Bone skill and the damage reduction BUFF can make Chen Cheng suffer less damage, but it will not reduce the pain. He was hit by an arrow in the face, and he only felt pain in his heart. Chen Cheng gritted his teeth, pulled out the arrow with his backhand, and pointed it at
The stunned enemy shot back. The arrow broke through the enemy's leather armor, pierced through his back, and pierced into the wall.
The archer took careful aim and hit Chen Cheng with an arrow. Just when he was happy, he saw that the enemy who was supposed to be shot to death acted like nothing happened, so he pulled out the arrow from his face with his backhand, almost frightened to death.
Then he felt a pain in his chest and fell to the ground screaming.
Chen Cheng drew out his arrow again and pointed his bow at the steps. On the steps, the crossbowmen looked frightened and ran away from each other. Many of them escaped from the Beigong. Although they were forced by their superiors
He ordered to shoot arrows at his former comrades, but his morale was really not high.
Having just seen Chen Cheng's incomparable performance, the soldiers had lost all fighting spirit at this time. On the steps, a team leader smashed the shield in his hand on the ground, stood up, and roared: "The front team's
Everyone, please step aside and make way for Marquis Julu!"
Dozens of soldiers looked at each other, stood up with a clatter of shields, walked to the side, and cleared the road in the middle. The leader of the team said angrily: "No one is allowed to move.
Do you want to rebel?"
The team leader sneered: "I just rebelled, how do you treat me?"
The commander of the village held his sword in his hand and shouted: "Kill him!"
At the bottom of the steps, Chen Cheng loosened his fingers, and arrows flew out with a roar. On the steps, the head of the sword-wielding commander suddenly exploded, and the headless body was lifted up by a strong force, and then fell to the ground.
A soldier walked over quickly and whispered: "General, that person is my distant brother."
Chen Cheng nodded, and then climbed up the stairs with his bow in hand. When he first came here, some defenders told him that the steps with different colors in the middle could not be walked because they were reserved for the emperor and important ministers. At that time,
He was still complaining in his mind. But as time passed, the emperor had turned into a corpse, and he was now stepping on the royal road.
Things are the same and people are different, nothing more than that.
He walked up step by step, and the soldiers and shooters above were like split waves, rushing to both sides. The soldiers followed behind Chen Cheng with weapons in hand, nervously looking at the silent soldiers and shooters beside them.
.
Chen Cheng walked to the front of the main hall and said to Zhao Zhong behind the pillars: "Great Changqiu, what should we do now?"
Zhao Zhong lowered his head and said nothing after hearing these familiar words. Chen Cheng snorted, stepped over the threshold, and walked into the main hall.
In the Jiade Hall, Guo Sheng watched in horror as Chen Cheng and his soldiers poured in, waving his hands wildly and shouting, "Block him, don't let him come!"
There were still several Guo Sheng's confidants in the main hall, all holding unsheathed swords. However, seeing the large number of Yue cavalry and Xiyuan troops behind Chen Cheng, they all wisely retreated to the side.
"asshole!"
Guo Sheng reached out to grab the weapon in the hand of a soldier and cursed: "You are an immature wolf cub! You can't handle even small things!"
The soldier did not dare to fight back and took a few steps back in embarrassment.
Chen Cheng sighed and said: "Guo Changshi, please be more decent!"
He turned his head and saw Jian Shuo, who was tightly tied with ropes, lying on the ground with a bruised nose and face, and said: "Untie the captain of the military academy."
Several soldiers stepped forward and cut the rope that was holding Jian Shuo with their swords. Jian Shuo got up from the ground without saying a word and ran towards Guo Sheng, who was fighting with the soldier. He ran behind Guo Sheng,
Grab the opponent's collar, raise your fist and hit him.
"Ah!" Guo Sheng was beaten until he was rolling on the ground, wailing: "Stop fighting, stop fighting!"
Zhao Zhong, who was escorted in by Yue Qi, said in a low voice: "Julu Hou, you can only kill people with a nod of your head, so be more happy."
Chen Cheng snorted and said, "Don't worry, I have your knife."
He raised his eyes, looked around the hall, and asked, "Where are the queen and the eldest son of the emperor?"
Beside Liu Hong's brocade, several regular servants lowered their heads like quails, not even daring to say anything.
Empress Dowager Dong looked at the farce in the hall with cold eyes, and suddenly said: "Song Dian, Zhang Gong and others have already gone out with the empress surrounded."
Guo Sheng was still screaming beside him. Chen Cheng frowned and said, "Commander Colonel, stop, he is almost beaten to death by you."
With a livid face, Jian Shuo punched Guo Sheng again, then stood up and spat blood on the ground.
"Report!"
The messenger rushed in and shouted: "The enemy has passed Zhangde Hall and is less than a hundred steps away from here!"
Chen Cheng said to Liu Xie who was beside Empress Dowager Dong: "Marquis Dong, we..."
"Wait a minute!" Empress Dowager Dong suddenly said sternly: "Where do you want to take Dong Hou?"
"The rebels are almost here..."
Empress Dowager Dong said angrily: "You are defeated, you are the rebels!"
"This..." Chen Cheng coughed and said, "Okay, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy..."
Empress Dowager Dong shouted loudly: "Marquis Dong can still maintain his respect as a duke if he stays in Luoyang. If he is taken away by you, he might die in the rebellion. I will never allow such a thing to happen!"
As long as what others say makes sense, Chen Cheng will always listen. He smiled bitterly and said: "What the Queen Mother said is not unreasonable. Then, I will only ask once, Donghou, are you willing to come with me?"
Liu Xie looked at his father lying on the brocade, then took Empress Dowager Dong's hand and said, "I want to stay here."
"It's not necessarily a good idea to follow me," Chen Cheng sighed, bent down towards Emperor Daxing, straightened up, and said to Liu Xie and Empress Dowager Dong, "Then please take care of yourself."
Seeing him turning around to leave, a girl's voice rang out, "I'm willing to go with you!"
Chen Cheng stopped and looked around, but it was Princess Liu Qian who had been silent for a long time.
"What are you talking about?" Empress Dowager Dong said angrily: "Don't lose the dignity of the Tian family!"
Chen Cheng smiled and said to Liu Qian: "When I go, I will sleep in the open air and escape death. Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid!"
Empress Dowager Dong let go of Liu Xie, pulled Liu Qian over, and said viciously: "Shut up! Your mother died early, which is why you are so unruly!"
Chen Cheng laughed and walked over, pushed Empress Dowager Dong away, then took Princess Wannian's hand and said, "Have you really thought about it? The Empress Dowager has already said that I am rebellious now."
Liu Qian raised her head, widened her eyes, and asked, "You will protect me, right?"
"Of course, I will not only protect you, but also teach you swordsmanship and riding skills. When you grow up, you can protect yourself."
"Then I've thought about it!"
A message floated from the lower left corner, but it was "Liu Qian has joined your team."
Chen Cheng read it several times and then smiled.
Yan Zhong was stunned for a while, then he finally came to his senses and said anxiously: "Your Majesty! If you don't capture the prince, what's the use of capturing a princess?"
Chen Cheng looked up to the sky and laughed, saying: "Hey, when I came to Luoyang City, I wanted to do something useful every day, but I was tied up, but I ended up in this situation. There are people in the world who will save it. We are gentle, so we should take care of it first.
Just mind your own business!"
He turned around and saw Jian Shuo standing next to Liu Hong, and said, "Come on, Lieutenant Colonel, let's go."
Jian Shuo raised his head numbly and asked, "You won't kill them?"
The so-called them, of course, refers to Zhao Zhong, Guo Sheng and other Zhongchang attendants. These people have been pretending to be dead dogs. When they saw Chen Cheng preparing to leave, they all breathed a big sigh of relief. As a result, Jian Shuo did not open the pot.
Which pot, I couldn't help but curse in my heart.
Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Why should I be like a dead person?"
Jian Shuo's dull face showed a surprised expression, and then turned into a sneer, "Yes, we are already dead."
He turned to Zhao Zhong, Sun Zhang, Han Li and other former companions and looked at them one by one. He stayed on Dong Hou and Liu Xie for a while, and finally said to Chen Cheng: "Chen Qiaoqi, can you do a favor for a certain family?"
?”
Chen Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Please tell me."
Jian Shuo took a deep breath and said, "Burn my body. I don't want my head to be hung on the city wall after I die."
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the ring-shou knife from the hands of the soldiers beside him, and wiped it on his neck. Blood immediately spattered out.
Chen Cheng could have stopped him, but he stopped when he reached halfway. He never liked forcing others, so since Jian Shuo had already made up his mind, why bother to stop him?
However, seeing the majestic body like an iron tower falling suddenly, Chen Cheng couldn't help but sigh: "Why is this necessary?"
He looked at the different reactions of everyone in the hall, and couldn't help but feel elated, and said: "Take the marshal out."
Empress Dowager Dong was pushed away by Chen Cheng and almost fell to the ground. At this time, she regained her breath and cursed: "Marquis Julu, if you dare to take away the princess, you are guilty of the following and should be punished by the nine tribes!"
Several of the regular servants lamented in their hearts and stepped forward to grab Empress Dowager Dong, saying repeatedly: "Queen Mother, calm down."
Chen Cheng laughed and said: "The following is wrong? I am my own king, who can be above me?"
When Yan Zhong heard this, he knitted his knot and exclaimed, "You are so sincere!"
Empress Dowager Dong was so angry that she cursed repeatedly: "It's treasonous and unethical, it's treasonous and unethical!"
Liu Xie shouted from behind: "Sister, don't leave!"
Liu Qian turned around and said with a smile: "Brother, I'll come see you again in a while!"
She said it with a smile, but tears fell from her face.
