“Ye Lui Heng, you dare!”
The Empress stood in front of Ye Lui Heng and was highly anxious. She did not give in and wanted to use her identity as the Empress to stop Ye Lui Heng. Ye Lui Heng was like the token of the Emperor himself and could go anywhere he wanted. The imperial guards dared not stop him when they saw the token, which concerned her son’s life and death.
“Empress, your son has offended you for the country’s sake.”
Ye Lui Heng’s cold eyes flashed with contempt as he cupped his hands towards the Empress and said righteously. He then rode around her to enter the camp.
“The First Prince has gone too far. Let’s fight it out with him.”
A soldier behind the Second Prince’s army shouted angrily. The soldiers on the Second Prince’s side were originally in a dilemma, but when someone shouted, they became furious.
Sending people to assassinate, blocking the door, and bullying, wasn’t the First Prince going too far?
The Second Prince’s guards shouted along, shaking the sky and earth. The First Prince was stunned, thinking no one would dare stop him after he took out the Regal Visitor waist token. The Second Prince’s army was genuinely audacious. It seemed that it was imperative to get rid of him.
If they dared to stop him, they could use the reason for rebellion to get rid of him.
The Empress was so anxious that her face turned pale. She turned around and wanted to stop the Second Prince’s soldiers, but when she saw that everyone’s fighting spirit was high, she lowered their morale at this time. If they fought later, they would suffer a crushing defeat.
She was having an intense battle in her heart. She had fewer people on her side, while the Second Prince had more people. Previously, they had the Royal Guards to rely on. Now that the Royal Guards were passive, they did not dare to move.
Would the First Prince accuse him of rebellion?
“Anyone who dares to stop us will be executed for treason.”
The First Prince’s eyes were filled with ferocity as he raised his nine-ringed saber and roared at the Second Prince’s army.
“The First Prince wants to harm the Second Prince.”
The second prince’s first person shouted again. The second prince’s army was provoked by this person and shouted together, “I’ll go all out, I’ll go all out.”
Whoosh, a Cloud Piercing Arrow shot toward Ye Lui Heng. The closer arrow flew towards Ye Lui Heng’s face with the sound of the wind. It was so fast and powerful that Ye Lui Heng could not dodge it.
“All?”
The First Prince was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He thought that he would die here today.
A black shadow flew up and blocked in front of him. The Piercing Arrow hit the person’s chest, but the person landed on the ground as if nothing had happened.
When the Second Prince saw this scene, he recalled that the person who came to assassinate him last night was like this. He was invulnerable and unkillable.
“Mother, Imperial Brother sent this person to assassinate me last night.”
The Second Prince pointed at the man in black and shouted. Ye Lui Heng’s expression changed slightly, but his eyes were filled with killing intent in the blink of an eye. He raised his nine-ringed saber and shouted,
“Kill without mercy.”
Just as he finished shouting, another cloud-piercing arrow shot at him. This time, Ye Lui Heng was prepared. Hearing the sound of the opening, he hid beside the Empress. The black-clothed man flew up again and used the snake-shaped sword in his hand to cut the arrow. However, the strength of the cloud-piercing arrow was too great, and it hit him in the face.
A horrifying scene appeared. The black-clothed man stood there as if nothing had happened with an arrow stuck in his forehead. The feathers on the tail of the arrow were still trembling. Even the Empress, who was used to seeing big waves, was shocked. This scene was bizarre.
“Ye Lui Heng, you used witchcraft. The Emperor has repeatedly ordered you not to use witchcraft. Men, take Ye Lui Heng down!”
The Empress was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She gave a stern order to the royal guards. This time, she had a valid excuse. The royal guards also knew the Emperor’s order. They once again aimed their swords and spears at Ye Lui Heng.
The Empress looked at Ye Lui Heng. Since he had already set his mind on killing the imperial son, and since the assassination did not succeed last night, he would try again in the future. For the throne’s sake, he was really going to do anything to deal with his brother.
Moreover, Ye Lui Heng had even pinned the crime of rebellion on them. This was not given up until the imperial son was killed.
Since that was the case, it was better to fight with your back against the wall and protect her son first.
“Hahaha, Empress, you used all sorts of despicable methods to frame your son. Since Mother doesn’t care about the relationship between mother and son, then 1 can only offend you.
Ye Lui Heng raised his head and laughed loudly. He looked at the Empress arrogantly and was no longer willing to maintain respect on the surface. He raised the nine-ringed saber in his hand and shouted,
“Kill!”
Just as he finished shouting, another Cloud Piercing Arrow shot towards him. Ye Lui Heng finally realized that an arrow would shoot toward him if he raised his saber. Was he giving him the order to shoot?
The man in black raised an arrow again to block the arrow. Su Qing stood on the high hill behind the team and saw it.
After confirming that the men in black were the ones who attacked Mo City and that he was the one who had shouted just now, Su Qing wanted to stir up a fight between the Second Prince and the Eldest Prince because she wanted to find the master behind the men in black.
Of course, it would be even better if she could shoot Ye Lui Heng to death. This person had a fierce face and was a warmonger. He had to be eliminated.
But this time, Ye Lui Heng learned his lesson and let a row of death warriors block before him.
Su Qing’s eyes were filled with contempt. This old fellow was quite clever, but he was indeed a coward.
How did Su Qing get out?
It was because that soldier had come to accuse him. When she heard that the First Prince wanted to kill her, could she sit still and wait for death?
She drugged the kid, and the guards at the door changed into the Second Prince’s uniform and blended into the Second Prince’s army.
They had watched a good show the entire time. They thought the Empress could suppress Ye Lui Heng, but ultimately, she could not stop this ambitious First Prince.
She shouted from behind to add fuel to the fire and let this internal strife start faster and shot Ye Lui Heng. She did not expect to lure the black-clothed man out and see that the Eldest Prince raised this person.
He was the number one enemy and had to be eliminated.
Ye Lui Heng was shot three times in a row, and his vicious heart was aroused. He shouted at his soldiers, “Kill without mercy; leave no one alive.”
In any case, it was only a matter of a few days before his father died. If he eliminated the hidden danger today, he would ascend the throne tomorrow and see who could stop him.
The Second Prince also told his team, “The First Prince is rebelling. Kill him.”
The Second Prince knew how to find an excuse, but the First Prince didn’t even mention it. Because the person hiding in the dark and shooting the arrows hadn’t been found, he didn’t dare to take the lead and rush in. He only dared to hide behind the dead soldiers and give orders.
The First Prince hated this feeling to the core and shouted at his generals,
“Find the person who shot the arrow. 1 want to eat his heart.”
“Swoosh.”
He had just shouted when an arrow shot over. The man of sacrifice blocking the First Prince fell off his horse and died.
The First Prince was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly pulled his horse back, and the other men of sacrifice hurriedly blocked the gap just now, protecting the First Prince as if they were facing death.
The Second Prince’s army was much smaller than the First Prince’s. Even if the Royal Guards joined in, they could not stop the First Prince’s valiant and battle-ready army. They were about to be completely wiped out.
Su Qing frowned. The Second Prince’s strength was too weak. She had to think of a way to help him, but how?
Su Qing considered a way to throw the First Prince’s army into chaos..
