"Come on! Escort!"

Seeing this, the old eunuch panicked, and with a loud shout, hundreds of imperial guards surrounded the entire Cuiwei Palace.

But even so, the moment the guard opened the sword, dozens of dead men burst out of the wine cart and went straight to He Yao, the sword shone coldly under the moonlight.

The white jade gourd fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the old wine spilled all over the floor.

Those imperial guards drew their swords one after another, but pierced the swords into the people around them.Those imperial guards who were not instigated to rebel looked at their former friends in surprise, and then fell into a pool of blood under the guilty eyes of the other party.

All of a sudden, the maids and eunuchs screamed in panic and fled around like headless chickens.Some people who were still sane found places to hide. Except for the old eunuch and the imperial guards, no one cared about He Yao's life or death.

Concubine Rou let He Yao fall to the ground, she had already hid behind the rockery and watched everything outside quietly.

In a place where no one was paying attention, He Yu watched the situation nervously. He caught a glimpse of the color of the wine in doubt, and found that the wine had been dropped by someone at some point, so he raised it unconsciously.

At this time, the dead soldiers were fighting with the Imperial Forest Army, approaching He Yao with the offensive of death.

He Yu looked back at He Yao's situation, and saw that he was not bleeding from his orifices, but was leaning against the pillar limply. It seemed that he had just been poisoned by sweat medicine, so He Yu silently clenched his fists.

"Brother Huang, it seems that this king underestimated you."

He Yu had originally prepared two tactics, either to poison He Yao to death, or to let him be killed by the dead, no matter what, he could clean up the mess in the end, but now the plan was clearly revealed, so he had to pin his hopes on the latter.

"Come here! Come and protect..."

The old eunuch shouted hoarsely, but in the next moment, he was cut off by the sword of the dead man who broke through the barrier, and the blood sprayed all over He Yao's body. He Yao's eyes widened, and his legs kept kicking and twisting. Desperately want to back off.

But the dead soldiers lived up to expectations, and after killing the Imperial Forest Army in front of them, they raised their swords and charged towards He Yao.

The sword with a cold light was aimed at He Yao's gate of life, and the sharp blade was about to pierce his widened eyes.

Suddenly, a force wrapped around the blade of the sword, abruptly making him turn around, and the hilt flew out of his hand, flying straight into the thick pillar.

The dead man was forced back five steps by the soft sword that fell from the sky, and then kicked off the high platform of the water pavilion by a strong force.

He was at a loss to see what happened, but he saw a figure flying towards him, his handsome face flashed past, and he completely lost consciousness.

"Yanzhi!"

After Xiao Hongyin dealt with the dead man, he called He Yanzhi.

"Beware!"

He Yanzhi understood what he meant, and obediently stood by He Yao's side, reminding Xiao Hongyin to pay attention to his back.

The two heard shouts from a long distance, and the prince who was the first to rush over with light kung fu, but they were not stopped by the imperial forest army along the way, which proved that the imperial court was in chaos.

Seeing them fly away and leave him behind, the prince spun around in a hurry, when the little eunuch came to communicate, the prince hurriedly took him to dispatch the army.

The sound of clashing swords could be heard endlessly, Xiao Hongyin blocked the road leading to the high platform with his own strength, those dead soldiers tried their best to bypass him, but they were either beheaded by Xiao Hongyin or kicked out by He Yanzhi.

He Yu's face was as dark as black ink. He watched Xiao He and Xiao He cooperate tacitly to kill the dead man he had carefully cultivated before his eyes. He was so angry that he clenched his fists, his nails were deeply embedded in his palm, and blood oozed out.

He walked to the corpse, drew out his sword silently, and planned to rush forward to fight to the death, but the crown prince rushed over with soldiers and horses, beheaded all the traitorous Imperial Forest Army, and regained control of Cuiwei Palace.

Seeing that the situation was over, He Yu's eyes turned red. He took a deep breath and rushed towards the high platform with big strides.

The few dead soldiers are still fighting against Xiao Hongyin.

After Xiao Hongyin pulled a sword flower to kill one person, he caught a glimpse of He Yu holding the sword towards him from the corner of the eye, so he was ready to fight with others, but he saw that He Yu turned his target to the dead.

Xiao Hongyin didn't know what he wanted to do, so he looked at He Yu a few more times.In the gap of this moment, another dead man took the opportunity to bypass Xiao Hongyin and rush towards the high platform.

He Yanzhi had a panoramic view of these changes, and the soft sword in his hand was eager to try.Seeing the dead man stabbing at He Yao with his sword, He Yanzhi immediately raised his soft sword to give him a leverage, but he was hit hard by a figure that suddenly appeared.

He Yanzhi's center of gravity was unstable and he fell to the other side, his back collided with a solid pillar, causing his eyes to be dizzy from the pain.

"Yanzhi!" Xiao Hongyin walked to He Yanzhi's side and let him lean on him: "How? Is there anything wrong?"

Xiao Hongyin had just been shaken by He Yu's figure, but he let him rush over.

The two looked towards He Yao, and saw that He Yu was standing in front of He Yao at this moment, the dead man's sword pierced through his shoulder, and hot red blood dripped onto He Yao's face along the blade.

"Yu... Yu'er..." He Yao looked at He Yu in disbelief, and tremblingly called his name.

He Yu endured the pain and stabbed the dead man's heart with his sword, turned his head and smiled at He Yao, "Father...there is a child here, it's all right..."

Immediately, he pulled out the sword on his body forcefully, dragged his painful body, and helped He Yao to sit on the high seat again.

Seeing that the situation had changed, Concubine Rou messed up her bun, wiped off the makeup on her face, and rushed to He Yao, crying.

At this time, the crown prince led the troops to bring all the traitors to the front, knelt down and pleaded guilty: "I am too late to save you, I hope my father will make amends!"

The chaos subsided, and He Yao hadn't recovered from it. After being in a trance for a while, the first thing he remembered was to call the imperial physician.

The imperial physician rushed over to take He Yao's pulse, but He Yao asked the imperial physician to treat He Yu first.

"Father..." He Yuhong looked at him worriedly.

"Yu'er, father...I'm sorry..."

He Yao looked at the son in front of him, all the things from the past came to his mind, and his eyes were wet for a while.

He Yanzhi and Xiao Hongyin walked down the high stage silently, and came to the Prince's side, frowning at the scene of father's kindness and son's filial piety on the stage.

"He made such a look, today is a waste of work."

He Yanzhi's back was still aching, and he rested on Xiao Hongyin's body. He silently glanced at the neglected prince.

"Can you still hold on?" Xiao Hongyin supported He Yanzhi steadily, letting him put the weight on himself as much as possible.

He Yanzhi nodded, raised his hand and touched his arm: "How are you, are you hurt?"

He carefully inspected Xiao Hongyin for any injuries, and stopped after confirming that there was no problem.

The drama of father's kindness and son's filial piety on the high platform finally came to an end. After the imperial physician bandaged He Yu's wound, he gave He Yao the antidote.

He Yao regained his strength and sat upright, and everyone knelt down in front of him in unison, waiting for the imperial order.

"Who is the murderer?!"

Under He Yao's questioning, the prince was about to accuse He Yu, but was stopped by He Yanzhi.

The prince looked at He Yanzhi hesitantly, his eyes were full of unwillingness.

However, he also understood that it was unwise to accuse He Yu at this moment, so he had to plead guilty: "Report to Father, I think...you can ask Emperor Brother for his opinion."

Speaking of which, He Yu has been here before starting his career, so he can be said to have witnessed the whole process.

"Yu'er."

He Yao also knew that the wine cart was presented by He Yu, but he still looked at He Yu: "What do you think?"

He Yu was not in a hurry to express his sincerity, but bowed his head and pleaded guilty: "It's all because of my negligence, please punish my father!"

He Yao stepped down from the high seat and helped him up: "Yu'er sacrificed her life to save me, and I will forgive you the crime of negligence, but Yu'er must deal with the mastermind behind this scene."

"Thank you, Father."

He Yu got up and retreated from the high platform, and immediately ordered the guards who had just transported the wine truck to be taken into prison.

The guard struggled for a while before giving up, allowing his limbs to be broken and dragged down.

He Yanzhi wanted to see something from the guard's face, but then met He Yu's eyes.

"Royal father, thanks to brother Huang for saving me this time."

He Yu only glanced at He Yanzhi, then turned his gaze to the prince.

"If Brother Huang's subordinates hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid the villains would have succeeded."

He Yao looked at He Yanzhi and Xiao Hongyin when he heard the words, saw that they were both very handsome, and the gloom in his chest dissipated a lot, nodded and said: "In that case, Sheng'er, how do you want me to reward you?"

The crown prince knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "Father is safe, this is the greatest reward for the child!"

He Yao waved his hand and said wearily: "There is no need to say this, I am tired of hearing it. Since Sheng'er has nothing to want, then I will entrust you with the future Qiu Lie."

The prince quickly kowtowed to thank him.

"Okay, let's all go down."

He Yao was supported by the eunuchs to get off the high platform, Concubine Rou silently followed behind him, and was about to reach out to help, but He Yao stretched out his hand to He Yu.

He Yu reached out to pick it up, but He Yao grabbed his forearm.

"Yu'er, talk to my father."

After finishing speaking, the Holy Majesty got up and drove back to the palace accompanied by the King of Xizhou, and everyone sent him off respectfully.

The prince slowly stood up from the ground, and was supported by the little eunuch to stabilize his body.

"Let's go." His voice was cool, like the wind blowing from the bank of the pool.

There was a special person in charge of cleaning up the mess. He Yanzhi and Xiao Hongyin followed the prince out of the palace after passing through the messy corpses.

"You two have worked hard, let's go back and rest earlier." The prince didn't look back at the two when he spoke, and walked into the carriage by himself.

"His Royal Highness, I have one more matter." He Yanzhi stopped him and asked, "The golden car that He Yu smuggled away?"

The prince sighed softly: "Forget it, that gold mine will not be moved again for the time being, and it will be hard for anyone to get involved in this matter."

The curtain of the carriage was lowered, and the carriage turned around and gradually moved away from the palace.

He Yanzhi watched the prince leave, but felt his fingers were cold, and immediately grabbed Xiao Hongyin.

Finally, he said:

"Let's go too."

"kindness."

……

It was already light when the two returned to the temple, they slept on the couch for several hours, then packed their things and planned to leave the temple.

"I wanted to take advantage of the chaos to let the princess pretend to be forced by the assassin, and take the opportunity to jump into the lake to escape, but who would have imagined that the concubine would find out and save her back?"

After Liu Dan came back, he told He Yanzhi about Pingyao's situation, and he then told Liu Ci.

"Then...is there really no other way?"

Looking at Liu Ci's pleading eyes, He Yanzhi couldn't think of any solution for the time being, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Liu Ci's eyes dimmed in an instant, He Yanzhi looked for Xiao Hongyin's figure, and saw him packing all his things and loading the carriage, walking towards them.

"Don't worry, there is no unparalleled road."

Xiao Hongyin smiled at He Yanzhi, and the latter couldn't help agreeing: "That's right, it's still not to the point of robbing relatives."

Liu Ci glanced at the two of them, feeling more and more depressed, and silently walked away to the end of the line.

Xiao Hongyin led He Yanzhi to the front of the carriage, moved the footstool to help him up, who knew that He Yanzhi was about to get into the carriage with a low body, when a group of people came from outside the temple, shouting for Xiao He to accept the order.
