Chapter 396 Duan Taifei died
A small white iron bone umbrella appeared in Ai Zishen's hand. He held the umbrella and ran on the roof tiles of the palace with the rain of arrows.
Liu Tao followed closely behind and used his sword to thrust the leaking arrow.
The two of them arrived on the city tower, and the archers resisted in panic.
Ai Zishen and Liu Tao had no living habits.
When the concubine Duan in the palace heard that two people came straight to her palace through the rain of arrows, her face suddenly lost its color.
"Let's avoid it!" Eunuch Luo, who was serving Concubine Duan, approached and bowed.
"I can't escape! I hope Murong He's soldiers can arrive in time!" A little hope appeared in Concubine Duan's eyes.
"Then you must be even more alive!" Eunuch Luo advised, looking at Concubine Duan's slightly pale face.
"My life and death are not important!" A strange smile appeared on Concubine Duan's face. Eunuch Luo couldn't help but be shocked.
Ai Zishen went straight to Concubine Duan's bedroom. Liu Tao blocked the chasing guards behind him.
Sixteen female guards stood in front of the gate of Duan Taifei Palace. They saw Ai Zishen and Liu Tao going to block the attack.
Ai Zishen held an umbrella in his right hand to block the female guards' swords, and a sleeve sword appeared in his left hand. Wherever his sword passed, three female guards were corpses on the spot.
Liu Tao was shocked when he saw it. Such skills were not often seen in Youjing. He hid so deeply!
Liu Tao did not fight the guards to death. He used his light skills to deal with the guards.
Ai Zishen had already rushed to the door of Concubine Duan's palace. Two women in green were floating out of the hall. They actually looked exactly the same.
Ai Zishen's progress encountered obstacles. The two twin sisters were in the same mind and had a tacit understanding of swordsmanship. They did not seem to be fighting with Ai Zishen, but were just blocking him from moving forward.
Liu Tao was attacked by the guards in front and behind, and could only deal with those people and could not come forward to help.
Ai Zishen knew that if he was struggling by their sisters, there might be something wrong.
The two twin sisters in green clothes saw Ai Zishen suddenly spiral up, and they jumped up together to fight with swords.
Ai Zishen's small umbrella suddenly shot out countless silver bone-transparent nails.
The two twin sisters were in the air, and the bone-transparent nails suddenly came again. They could not avoid all the bone-transparent nails and were hit on the ground.
Ai Zishen entered the hall with a quick body movement. Seeing that the person was not blocked, Concubine Duan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Ai Zishen was about to step forward to capture Concubine Duan, but unexpectedly, Eunuch Luo, beside her, suddenly hit him in the face with a whisk.
Ai Zishen's reaction was also fast enough. His body instantly retreated, his face leaned back, and he barely avoided the attack of Eunuch Luo's whisk.
Eunuch Luo pulled Concubine Duan and left. The short sword in Ai Zishen's sleeve hit the back of Eunuch Luo.
Concubine Duan used her body to block Ai Zishen's short sword. Blood overflowed from Concubine Duan's chest.
"Master!" A look of horror appeared in Eunuch Luo's eyes.
"Go and tell Murong He!" Concubine Duan refused to be controlled by others when she died.
Eunuch Luo had already hidden in the back hall when Ai Zishen was stunned.
Liu Tao was forced into the hall by the guards. Ai Zishen's plan failed, and he was angry and took action. The guards who protected Concubine Duan splattered blood in the hall.
"Let's go!" Ai Zishen shouted softly, and the person had already arrived outside the hall.
Liu Tao followed Ai Zishen to the gangsters and guards of Concubine Duan in the palace.
An hour later, when Gongzi Qingqian and others saw that Ai Zishen and Liu Tao had not left the palace, they couldn't help but feel worried.
"Report! Murong He led 30,000 cavalry to the outside of the capital gate!" Murong Xue's hands came down to report.
The Prime Minister of Qin and all the ministers were surprised. The capital city had less than 8,000 garrisons, how could they resist these 30,000 iron cavalry!
"For the sake of the present, we must first break through the palace gate!" Gongzi Qingqian said decisively.
"All the soldiers obey the orders! Follow me to attack the palace gate!" Murong Xue pulled a war horse and flew up.
"Slow!" Young Master Qing said a simple word to stop him.
"Stop!" Murong Xue raised her hand, and her cavalry immediately stopped.
"Xuanfei! Come with me!" Young Master Qingqian approached the palace wall from the side of the palace. A row of feather arrows shot out from above the palace wall. Young Master Qingqian and Xuanfei drifted behind the tree.
"Is there any poison that can be thrown into the wall?" Young Master Qingqian asked.
"This! But its toxicity is not strong, and it can only temporarily cause people to be inactive!" Xuan Fei took out two walnut-sized black smoke bombs from his arms.
After taking it, Gongzi Qingqian flew onto a tree and threw it into the palace wall.
A cough sounded. Xuan Fei watched the smoke in the palace wall gradually dissipate, and he flew over the palace wall with Gongzi Qingqian. The other archers turned the arrows and pointed them at Gongzi Qingqian and the others. However, due to the distance, the arrows lost their effectiveness.
"Attack!" Murong Xue gave her order, and her cavalry rushed towards the palace gate.
The archers hurriedly turned their heads with arrows. At this time, Young Master Qingqian and Xuanfei had already arrived behind them.
Another smoke bomb exploded, and the archers on the newly built wooden ladder on the palace wall were choked and tears were flowing.
Young Master Qingqian and Xuanfei took the opportunity to kill the soldiers guarding the palace gate and opened the palace gate.
Murong Xue's cavalry entered the palace gate. The imperial guards who besieged Ai Zishen and Liu Tao in the palace could no longer resist. They died and injured countless times, only a few were captured.
After Murong Xue occupied the palace, he ordered the palace gate to be closed. His cavalry guarded the fortresses of the palace gate.
Murong He's army had already broken through the city gate and came outside the palace.
Gongzi Qingqian and Ai Zishen talked in the corridor for a long time. Liu Tao stood not far away to keep the wind for them.
Murong Fu stood at the door of the main hall with gloomy eyes and looked at the soldiers who cleared the bodies of the dead after the war between the two sides.
The setting sun was like blood, dyeing half of the sky red. Murong Fu's mood could not calm down for a long time. The scene he didn't want to see was now in front of him.
Murong He began to command his army to attack the palace. Murong Xue and Qin Xiang left the gate of the palace to command the war. Ai Zishen left the palace alone. Xuan, who was lying on the tree, jumped down the tree and came to Gongzi Qingqian's side.
Young Master Qingqian said without waiting for him to ask, "He is going to spread the story of the last emperor's will!"
"Is this necessary for him?" Xuan Fei leaned against the corridor column with his arms held.
"Not everyone can get out of Murong Fu's encirclement. Moreover, this news needs to be quickly spread to various places in Dayuan, and even to surrounding countries! Only the ubiquitous Shura hermits have this power and ability!" Gongzi Qingqian's words forced Xuanfei to convince.
"But what is the use of just sending messages? Will there be an army that will take the initiative to defend the capital and fight against the rebels?" Xuan Fei rubbed his nose and said.
"You are right! They will come soon!" Young Master Qingqian smiled at a bright light in the sky.
"No way! It's just a message from the late emperor. Does it have that great effect?" Xuanfei looked at Gongzi Qingqian in disbelief.
"The throne-passing edict means the granting and inheritance of imperial power!" Before Prince Qingqian finished speaking, guards came to Murong Fu to report: "Three troops who were already under the banner of striking the rebels arrived in the capital. They were siegeing the city."
"So fast? You really have it!" Xuan Fei punched Gongzi Qingqian.
