Huanzhu Time Travel: Yan Luo's Unbreakable Love in the Yong Dynasty
Chapter 274 Fierce Battle in the Imperial Palace
When Yongqi and Erkang led the guards to the secret room, the scene was already in chaos. The advisor was fighting fiercely with several guards. Although he was in dire straits, he was still putting up a desperate fight, and every move he made was made with the spirit of fighting to the death.
"Stop! You villain, how dare you attempt an assassination!" Yongqi shouted, drawing his sword and charging forward.
Upon seeing Yongqi and Erkang arrive, the advisor grew increasingly panicked, but his will to survive unleashed even greater power. He brandished his dagger and lunged at Yongqi, who easily dodged, then countered with a swift thrust of his sword at the advisor's arm.
"Ah!" the aide cried out in pain, his arm was injured, but he still gripped the dagger tightly, unwilling to give it up.
Erkang also joined the battle, cooperating seamlessly with Yongqi to create a pincer attack on the staff. Under their fierce assault, the staff gradually became exhausted, and their movements began to slow down.
"Don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll... I'll destroy the secret edict!" Seeing that things were going badly, the aide suddenly reached out and grabbed the box containing the secret edict, threatening him.
Yongqi and Erkang were startled and immediately stopped what they were doing. They knew the importance of the secret edict and could not allow it to be damaged in any way.
"You have nowhere to escape. Put down the secret edict, and perhaps the Emperor will spare your life," Erkang urged loudly.
"Hmph, spare my life? If I'm caught, I'm doomed. Don't push me!" the aide shouted frantically.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, more guards arrived and surrounded the advisor. The advisor looked around and realized that he had no way to escape; a look of despair and madness flashed in his eyes.
"If I can't have it, neither can you!" the aide said, raising his dagger to stab the box.
In the nick of time, Yongqi reacted swiftly, throwing his sword and striking the advisor's wrist with pinpoint accuracy. With a clang, the dagger fell to the ground, and the advisor, writhing in pain, released his grip on the box.
Er Kang seized the opportunity to step forward, snatch the box, and hug it tightly to his chest.
"Take him down!" Yongqi ordered.
The guards rushed forward and subdued the staff member.
"You bunch of lackeys of the imperial court, I will haunt you even in death!" the advisor continued to curse as he was being led away.
"Ignore him, let's check if the secret edict has been damaged first," Er Kang said.
Yongqi carefully opened the box and saw the secret edict lying inside intact, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luckily we arrived in time. If the secret edict had been destroyed, the consequences would have been unimaginable," Yongqi said.
“Yes, we must hurry and send the secret edict back to the Emperor to put his mind at ease,” Erkang said.
The two men, carrying the secret edict, hurried to the Imperial Study. At this time, Hongli was anxiously waiting for news. Seeing that Yongqi and Erkang had returned safely and the secret edict was intact, a relieved smile finally appeared on his face.
“You have done a great job. It is thanks to you that the secret edict was preserved this time,” Hongli said.
“This is what we should do, Your Majesty. However, the men in black are still causing trouble outside the capital, and Xiao Jian and his men are probably still fighting. We need to go and support them,” Yongqi said.
"Alright, go ahead. You must quell this unrest as soon as possible and restore peace to the capital," Hongli said.
After receiving their orders, Yongqi and Erkang immediately led their guards out of the Imperial Study and headed to the streets of the capital to support Xiao Jian and the others.
Meanwhile, on the streets of the capital, Xiao Jian, Qing'er, and Xiao Xiao Yanzi were engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black. The men in black were numerous and each one was fierce and brutal, but Xiao Jian and the others were fearless, relying on their superior martial arts skills and tenacious fighting spirit to fight back against them.
Xiao Jian's swordsmanship was fierce, and every strike accurately hit the enemy's vital points; Qing'er assisted from the side, and her swordsmanship was light and graceful, making it impossible for the enemy to defend against; Xiao Xiao Yanzi was even more valiant. She was like a nimble swallow, shuttling through the crowd, sometimes attacking with her sword, sometimes kicking, making the men in black retreat repeatedly.
"Hold on, everyone! We must wipe out all these men in black!" Xiao Jian shouted, boosting the morale of the crowd.
However, the men in black seemed endless, surging forward wave after wave. Xiao Jian and the others gradually became exhausted, but they gritted their teeth and persevered, with only one belief in their hearts: to protect the capital and the Emperor.
Who will emerge victorious in this fierce battle? Will Xiao Jian and his companions be able to completely defeat the men in black and restore peace to the capital? Everything is shrouded in suspense amidst this tense battle…
