14. The Last Veteran(2/2)
The spirits roared in unison.
In an instant, blue light fire flying stars lingered around Chen Qiu, as if they were saying goodbye. The next moment, they all turned into human forms, dispersed into the city in groups.
There are still some people who have nowhere to go, so they stay with Shen Qiu.
If the body is destroyed or not here, I want to take the opportunity to hunt and make my soul stronger. This is a rare opportunity.
"Senior Brother!"
Seeing Chen Qiu flying over and leading his army to block the imperial palace, Qingqing, who was protected by He Wangchuan and a group of Jiangnan warriors, called out. When Chen Qiu fell, Jiangnan warriors who followed He Wangchuan to rush here all drew their swords in their hands.
Today's incident was too bizarre and suddenly. The hero Tang Jiusheng led the crowd to rebel and killed many brothers. If Qin Xuming had not arrived in time, they would have been completely destroyed by the old ghosts of Penglai.
After finding He Wangchuan, he was brought here by the latter, saying that he wanted to take revenge, but this sudden change really made these warriors unable to make a turn for a while.
"Everyone put away their swords!"
He Wangchuan twisted his beard and said in a deep voice:
"Have you seen through today's affairs yet? It's all about the world, and the big troubles are right in front of you. Don't fight in the middle of the world because of internal affairs!"
Chen Qiu ignored those gangsters who were full of malicious intentions towards him. He shook the blood in his hand and handed it to Qingqing.
explain:
"Why don't you go in? Zhao Ming should be here."
"Someone is blocking."
Qingqing put the axe in the aloof and carried the gentle Yaoguang on her shoulders. She curled her lips and said to Chen Qiu:
"I don't want to bully the old man. There are still a few tricky ones that I can't beat when I protect him in the hall."
"It's so reasonable."
Chen Qiu smiled, glanced at the others, and said:
"You stay here, don't let others interfere, Qingqing, follow me."
He stepped forward onto the dim white jade steps reflected by the dim sky light. The carvings of dragons and phoenixes above were very gorgeous, symbolizing the authority of the Southern King. Qingqing held a knife and armor, following behind him.
This hall should have been closely guarded, but at this time, before the hall, not to mention the guards, there was not even a eunuch.
The palace gates are closed everywhere, and through the wall, you can feel the trembling fear of the people in the hall. In front of the empty hall, there was only a white-haired old man standing.
Zhao Lian.
He was wearing armor of battle formations, with a battle helmet, and holding his own blue dragon sword in his hand.
There is still blood on the blade.
At the old man, there were more than a dozen soldiers wearing northern uniforms lying.
He stood there like a crumbling wall protecting the palace behind him and the nephew in the palace who made him feel embarrassed.
"Get out of the way."
Chen Qiu looked at Zhao Lian and said warmly:
"The country you want to protect is over when your nephew kneels down. No, when Zhao Biao and Penglai collude, the bell of demise has already sounded.
I don't believe it, you didn't hear it."
"He didn't kneel!"
Under the battle helmet, Zhao Lian's old voice came.
It was like an old man who was stubborn until his death. He knew that he was about to fall, but he still gritted his teeth and held on for the last breath, not wanting to fall.
He is no match for the two people in front of him.
He is not even Qingqing's opponent.
But fighting is just one thing.
Whether to fight or not is another matter.
"You sent the generals to protect the people from the city, and then trapped the Hu Ben Guards in the city, and even went to the military orders to let the Qilu border troops surrender Qingqing.
Weihou, you have made the decision.
You have decided to surrender, why do you still need to whitewash the peace?”

Chen Qiu asked:
"What made you stand here and hold on and die for those things that no longer exist? I know that you have ambition to die, and you are planning to bury the Zhao family in the southern country? "
"He didn't kneel!"
Weihou answered Chen Qiu's inquiry with the same words, causing Qingqing beside him to shake his head, his eyes full of pity.
“Get out of here!”
Chen Qiu's voice turned cold in vain.
The cold air was emitting under his feet. In less than a breath, Zhao Lian's feet were frozen on the ground. Seeing Chen Qiu approaching, Zhao Lian roared, as if he wanted to inject all the power in his body into his Qinglong Sword.
But when the knife was cut, he closed his eyes.
He knew very well that it was impossible to stop it.
"Dang"
After the crisp sound, half of the blade was inserted into the ice layer on the ground. Chen Qiu stepped forward and reached out to put his hand on the closed palace gate. The next moment, the entire wall in front of him shattered.
Rubber splashed everywhere, smoke and dust flew everywhere, and the ice cubes under Zhao Lian's feet were shattered. The veteran fell to the ground and reached out to hold Chen Qiu's feet and prevent him from stepping into the hall.
But the hand that stretched out was pressed to the ground by the other hand.
Zhao Lian turned around and saw Qingqing holding a knife squatting in front of him.
The Queen of the Great Chu whispered:
"Enough!
Enough, you have done enough for him.
It’s not that you are bad, it’s that he is not worthy of a loyal minister like you. As the daughter of the Great Chu King, I will order you, Zhao Lian, not to struggle anymore! Leave your life.”
"Haha, Your Highness."
Zhao Lian said in a hoarse voice:
"I am a traitor, how could I obey your order?"
As he spoke, he broke free from Qingqing's shackles and crawled forward, trying to hold Chen Qiu's clothes.
"Bang"
The shaking of the knife hit Zhao Lian's head.
The old man was weak and fell into a coma by this blow.
“The whole world belongs to my family.”
Qingqing dragged the old man and placed it under the stone steps outside the hall. She said to the unconscious Zhao Lian:
"Even a traitor, you have to obey me. A monarch like him is not worthy of a good minister like you."
The princess narrowed her eyes and helped Zhao Lian wipe her embarrassed cheeks.
She smiled and said:
“But I deserve it.”
