Before she could figure it out, Li Delu quickly helped Emperor Sheng An down.
At this moment, his skin was pink and white, and he looked so tender and fresh.
The fire outside was already blazing, forcing Doctor Lin and others to retreat.
Emperor Sheng An narrowed his stern eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, "Xiao Si, that bastard, won't leave me any chance of survival. Since he can't break in, he'll burn me to ashes!"
Lin Yiwan urged, "Your Majesty, didn't you just say you were going to take us away? Do you have a way out?"
Emperor Sheng An turned his head and glanced at her: "Madam Hou is really smart. I am the master of this palace, so I must prepare several escape routes!"
He endured the burning heat and walked quickly to the inner room, turning over a huge porcelain bottle.
A long and narrow corridor appeared in front of Lin Yiwan, which shocked her.
She asked in surprise, "Where does this passage lead to?"
Emperor Sheng An said quietly, "The Queen's Palace is the safest place right now!"
Lin Yiwan directly supported Doctor Lin and walked inside: "Then what are you hesitating about? Let's go quickly. If you stay any longer, you will become barbecued meat!"
After everyone stepped into the corridor, Li Delu restored the mechanism to its original state.
Almost as soon as they went down, a loud noise came from above.
Needless to say, the main hall must have burned down and collapsed.
At this moment, Xiao Si's face was full of pride. He sneered and said, "Royal brother, you still can't defeat me this time. From now on, this world belongs to me!"
Without further hesitation, he turned around and walked quickly towards the queen's palace.
He wanted to inform the Queen of the death and let the Queen announce the Emperor's death to the world!
When he arrived at the Weiyang Palace, he saw that it was surrounded by armored troops.
He reached out and pinched himself hard, forcing the tears out.
He sobbed sadly, "Please, General Li, go and tell the Empress that the Emperor has been burned to ashes!"
Li Youde's expression suddenly changed. He had known for a long time that things were not peaceful in the palace at night.
But he had received a death order from the emperor, which prohibited him from leaving the queen's Weiyang Palace even if the sky fell.
So he could only wait patiently!
However, he did not expect that he would receive the news of the emperor's death.
How can it be?
Without further hesitation, he turned around and ran quickly towards the inner hall.
When he crawled to the inner hall, he saw the emperor sitting steadily on a chair drinking tea.
He was stunned: "Your Majesty, you were not burned to death?"
Emperor Sheng An glared at him in dissatisfaction: "Can you speak?"
Li Youde quickly knelt down and confessed: "Your Majesty, Xiao Si was crying outside that you were burned to ashes, and I thought it was true. I know I was wrong, and I beg Your Majesty to forgive me!"
Emperor Sheng An snorted coldly: "He is a traitor, he only wishes I were dead so he could take the throne!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone outside shouting, "General Li, go and have a look! Marquis Zhan Yi and his men are fighting Xiao Si!"
As soon as Lin Yiwan heard that Zhan Yan had arrived, she hurriedly got up and ran out.
Emperor Sheng An couldn't stay any longer, so he followed behind.
Li Delu kicked Li Youde and said, "Hey, my General Li, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!"
As the crowd rushed towards the door, they saw two forces on the verge of a tense situation not far away.
Lin Yiwan was the first to see Zhan Yan. His blue brocade robe was stained with blood. Except for his handsome face, which was uninjured, there were deep wounds all over his body that could be seen to the bone.
Behind him followed Ah Zi, who was also covered in wounds, and the remaining Dali Temple guards of Lin Ran.
They were also seriously injured, and even standing there, blood was still dripping from their bodies.
Xiao Si's face was filled with cruelty. He hadn't seen Emperor Sheng An yet. He gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, "Traitor Zhan Yan, my royal brother has been burned to ashes. I will be the new emperor of the Sheng Dynasty. How dare you rebel against your superiors? You have such a big guts!"
Zhan Yan interrupted without hesitation: "You are the traitor. You secretly stationed troops in Black Forest Mountain and kept the twelve Blood Guards captive. You, Xiao Si, have long been planning to rebel!"
Xiao Si suddenly raised his head and laughed: "Yes, I just want to rebel, so what? The emperor is dead now, and I am the only heir to the Xiao royal family!"
He turned to look at the crowd and said, "Listen carefully, whoever takes Zhan Yan's head, I, the new emperor, will make him the Duke of Protector of the Nation!"
As soon as the words fell, the scene fell into silence.
Zhan Yan narrowed his eyes in mockery: "I never thought that my head would be so valuable."
Xiao Si's face turned pale and ugly. He didn't expect that even after he had lured people with such generous conditions, no one had taken action yet.
Duke Protector of the Country, that is a first-class duke position!
A murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he quickly pulled out a guard's sword and said, "Since you won't do it, then I, Xiao Si, will do it myself!"
Without any further hesitation, he stabbed Zhan Yan with all his might.
"Puff!" A feather arrow suddenly pierced his shoulder blade, causing the sword in his hand to fall suddenly to the ground.
He turned around in disbelief and asked, "Who is it? Who dares to shoot me with an arrow?"
Emperor Sheng An came out holding a war bow and said, "It's me!"
Xiao Si's face was filled with shock, and a surge of anger almost overwhelmed his head.
He was spitting out blood and asking, "Weren't you burned to death? How did you escape?"
Emperor Sheng An did not answer but asked, "Xiao Si, do you recognize this bow?"
Xiao Si looked carefully and of course he recognized it. It was the one the previous emperor usually used.
He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "If my father were still alive, he would blame you for killing your own brother!"
Emperor Sheng An sneered, "Aren't you planning a rebellion and setting your own brother on fire? I saw you ordering the fire with my own eyes, Xiao Si!"
Xiao Si knelt on the ground and denied: "Brother, you misunderstood. I didn't do that. Why would I burn you to ashes? You heard it wrong, you must have heard it wrong!"
Emperor Sheng An pointed at the imperial physicians and said, "Even if I misheard, could they have misheard? They even saw you sending people to fetch firewood and kerosene. Xiao Si, the evidence is irrefutable. You can't deny it!"
Xiao Si knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with cold hatred.
He never thought that Emperor Sheng An could escape from the fire?
How on earth did he do it?
No, there is also the poison in his body. How did Shen Jianchou cure it?
Isn't it said that there is no antidote in this world?
Just as he was struggling, Emperor Sheng An said loudly, "I once promised the late emperor that I would protect my younger brother. Unfortunately, he tried to kill me. I can only use this bow of the late emperor to deal with him!"
Xiao Si was so frightened that his heart and liver were broken. He shook his head vigorously: "Brother Huang, you can't do this, you can't kill me!"
Emperor Sheng An strode forward, drawing his bow and drawing his arrow with awe-inspiring momentum.
He shouted angrily, "This first arrow is for your disloyalty. You secretly stationed troops on Black Forest Mountain. You deserve to be killed!"
"Puff!" The feather arrow flew out and hit Xiao Si's left arm.
"Ah!" He screamed and fell to the ground with tears on his face.
