The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

When the city wall collapsed, the explosion point was right under the empress's feet!

So the empress bore the brunt of the blow and was the first to fall to the ground. At the same time, the powerful blast pushed her frail body like a fallen leaf in the air!

But she was a peak martial arts grandmaster after all, and she immediately adjusted her posture and landed steadily on the ground, without her phoenix robe getting dirty at all!

Even those who were well-educated, such as the royal family, the left chancellor, and the chief eunuch, were able to land safely even if they were injured.

But those ordinary eunuchs and palace maids on the city wall who had no skills were in a miserable state. They were either blown to pieces by the explosion, or smashed into pieces when they fell!

In short, a grand ceremony that would have lasted for thousands of years turned extremely bloody!

Amidst the dust and smoke, the scene suddenly became chaotic, with countless cries rang out!

The Dongchang and Jinyiwei who were responsible for guarding the surrounding area quickly gathered their formation and rushed towards the collapsed palace wall!

"There is an assassin. Protect your majesty."

"Protect the ministers, protect the princes and princesses!"

"Don't make a scene! All those who are not involved should step back immediately!"

Figures flashed, and in that instant all the masters from the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard rose into the air, stood beside the collapsed walls of the imperial palace, and protected the empress tightly!

At this moment, some scheming ministers reacted and realized one thing - the third princess had really rebelled!

The riot lasted only a dozen or so breaths!

When the dust from the explosion dissipated, everyone regained their composure.

The Supervisor of the East Factory and the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard were the leaders in charge of security. They ran over quickly, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly in panic:

"I have failed in my duty. I deserve to die."

At this time, the empress had regained her composure, and the imperial majesty between her eyebrows was instantly displayed!

"Why is there gunpowder inside the palace walls?" the empress demanded sharply. "What are the Nine Gates Commander, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the East Factory doing?"

The transportation of gunpowder is strictly prohibited within the capital, so the Nine Gates Admiral is also implicated!

After all, Duan Zhenggang is the first line of defense for the security of the imperial palace.

"Where's An Luowan!" The empress was in no mood to hold anyone accountable or listen to them blaming each other. Instead, she immediately looked up to find the culprit!

This bitch actually wants to blow me to death!

The third princess turned into a flowing shadow and headed towards Qilin Lake!

The empress frowned and said, "You stay here and protect the officials and royal relatives!"

Then, she also turned into a red shadow and chased after An Luowan!

Bitch!

It seems that you know that you can’t kill me!

You actually want to release the things in Qilin Lake, right?

Including Mimiyan, all the warriors stood up and agreed, then scattered to protect!

Mimiyan, Duan Zhenggang, and Ye Qianxuan naturally protected the Ninth Princess.

The Ninth Princess was still in shock, and she gritted her teeth and cursed, "That lowly servant An Luowan is really planning a rebellion!"

The three did not answer.

Now that the matter is still unclear, it is not appropriate for them to interfere in the affairs of the royal family!

Xia Ruoxi was protecting some civil servants and looked at Ye Qianxuan fiercely!

She must find a way to kill this guy!

The chaos now is a perfect opportunity!

Xia Ruoxi was thinking about it!

Suddenly, a series of explosions, louder than the last, were heard from the direction of Qilin Lake in the inner city of the imperial palace!

Everyone's face turned pale. There was gunpowder at Qilin Lake!

Afterwards, the sky and the earth changed color, and it was obvious that the masters had started fighting!

"The Empress and the Third Princess are fighting!"

He said with narrowed eyes and frowned.

Ye Qianxuan was also confused in his heart - what exactly is inside the Qilin Lake?

When the third princess failed to kill An Luoyu, she actually rushed over there immediately!

And looking at the flames shooting up into the sky, more explosives must have been placed there long ago!

Do you want to blow something up or release something?

Duan Zhenggang didn't bother to ponder these things. Instead, he said with a bitter face, "Gunpowder has entered the capital, the city walls, and the Qilin Lake next to the Empress's palace. Co-magistrate Mi should be worried about what punishment the Empress will impose on us!"

When Mimiyan heard this, his face turned bitter!

How strange!

How did this gunpowder get in here?!

Ye Qianxuan, however, had a flash of enlightenment in his heart!

The events of Fan Yangqi being killed by the Southern Wu Embroidered Clothes Envoy after accepting the bribe from the Third Princess, the last message that was not delivered by the Northern Liang Embroidered Clothes Envoy lurking in the demon tribe, and the Third Princess' rebellion today, etc., all seemed to be connected into one thread!

"Don't worry, the Empress won't punish you. Instead, she'll reward you for solving the case!"

Ye Qianxuan's words shocked the two of them and instantly made them look at him!

"Solve the case? Solve what case?"

"You've become the most gifted person among all the officials. Changing your wish to protect us brothers from being punished is more reliable!"

Mimiyan and Duan Zhenggang both shook their heads, obviously not believing it.

Ye Qianxuan was indeed confident and felt that his guess was very reliable!

The Ninth Princess also looked at Ye Qianxuan curiously: "Master, do you have any thoughts on this matter?"

Before Ye Qianxuan could answer, a huge beast suddenly rushed out from the direction of Qilin Lake!

The beast had a majestic figure, its scales gleaming with colorful light in the moonlight, its horn was crystal clear, its forehead was shining, its eyes were deep and emitting red flames, its limbs were slender, its hooves were crackling, its tail was like a fan, swaying gently, and a faint halo surrounded its body, bringing with it a powerful aura of the demon clan.

The beast walked across the sky, leaving behind one flaming footprint after another, accompanied by a roaring explosion!

A stream of red light followed behind the beast, and it was none other than the Empress An Luoyu. Her expression was one of both anger and surprise!

"Boom!"

Every time the beast took a step, an explosive ring of air exploded in the air!

Ye Qianxuan was stunned immediately!

Eleventh level demon beast? !

What the hell!

There really are unicorns in this Qilin Lake!

It seems that the legend about the founding emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty may not be false!

How did An Luowan let it out!

Did you use gunpowder to blow up some kind of restriction?

And was it this creature that called me in Qilin Lake before?!

There is a big question mark in Ye Qianxuan’s little head!

"Stop it!"

The empress who was chasing after the monster shouted loudly!

Mimiyan and Duan Zhenggang looked at each other and rushed over!

This is a good opportunity for them to redeem themselves!

The Left Prime Minister and the Grand Chamberlain are no less capable!

The third princess rebelled, and her target was the empress!

If you want to completely sever your ties with this matter, you must put in more effort!

And Xia Ruoxi's eyes lit up!

Now that Ye Qianxuan is surrounded by only the Ninth Princess who is in the Transformation Realm, it is a good time to eliminate Ye Qianxuan!

At that time, I will tell the empress that Ye Qianxuan has evil intentions towards the Ninth Princess. In addition, Ye Qianxuan has been disrespectful to the empress before, so I am just doing justice for the people!

I am the last general of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to go to war, the empress will definitely not blame me!

Thinking of this, Xia Ruoxi took out the military dagger and slowly moved towards Ye Qianxuan!

Not long after, the Qilin rushed to the blocking area of ​​the group of Eastern Zhou masters outside the imperial city. Then the muscles on its neck swelled and it let out a shrill roar, trying to drive away the Eastern Zhou masters who were blocking it, while whipping its tail to attack!

"Don't hurt it!"

The empress shouted.

With this order, everyone was afraid to act rashly and instantly fell into a deadlock!

The scales of this Qilin are very hard and difficult to be damaged by swords and knives. Moreover, it is at the eleventh realm. Although it is just a monster and is weaker than the fighting monsters, when it really goes crazy, its strength should not be underestimated!

The Left Prime Minister, the Grand Chamberlain and others were worried about hurting it, so they held back some of their strength and could only hold it back and wait for the Empress's decision!

But in fact, the empress had no better idea at the moment. She could only temporarily surround it and wait for it to be exhausted!

"Sister! Use the Tianzong Ziwu hairpin that Master gave you to pierce its forehead and suppress the monster!"

At this time, the ninth princess An Luowei shouted loudly!

She knows all kinds of top-grade Taoist magic tools like the back of her hand!

Empress An Luoyu understood instantly and immediately took off the Tianzong Ziwu hairpin on her head and walked towards him!

This Qilin seemed to understand human nature. It howled and resisted immediately, broke through the people who were blocking it, and rushed towards the Ninth Princess with a clear goal!

In an instant, the empress's pupils contracted violently!

The only person by my sister's side is Ye Qianxuan who is in the state of transformation!

"Protect Luo Wei!"

The empress shouted, and at the same time urged her cultivation, grabbed the Tianzong Ziwu hairpin, and chased after him at a faster speed!
