He favored his concubine and I cut off my wealth. Everyone in the mansion was in a panic.

However, before Xie Zhaohua and Qi Yichuan reached the door, they heard dense footsteps outside. It was the pursuers who had just chased Xie Zhaohua all the way.

Qi Yichuan finally came to his senses, called for the guard commander of the mansion, and calmly ordered, "Let everyone gather here immediately!"

The guard commander took the order, and in less than half a cup of tea, all three hundred guards in the mansion had already assembled.

"Leave fifty people to protect the young lady, and the rest will fight with me to the tower and let the Qi family's army enter the city!"

A voice came from the crowd, "Sir, someone just saw the eldest lady following the madam out of the mansion, but she is not in the mansion now."

Qi Yichuan was startled. Even though the situation was critical, he did not bother to find Qi Suining's whereabouts. He ordered again, "Everyone, follow me to the city gate and fight to the death to open the city gate!"

"Yes!" Three hundred guards held long swords and shouted loudly.

Unlike the guards at your ordinary officials' houses, the three hundred guards at Pingxihou's house are all from the Qi family's army. They are extraordinary in terms of courage and skill.

Qi Yichuan walked in the front. As soon as the door opened, he saw soldiers in brown armor standing at the door. Judging from their posture, they seemed to be preparing to slam the door.

Qi Yichuan shouted sharply: "Kill!"

After saying that, he raised his sword and took the lead in cutting off a person's head.

Although Xie Zhaohua was a woman, she did not give in to men at all. The red tassel gun flipped in her hand and stabbed steadily into the opponent's chest.

Fuyi, who had not drawn a sword for many years, also took out the soft sword from his waist. It kept moving among the enemy troops like a ghost. Every time he took action, at least three people died.

As a secret guard, the night is her best weapon.

The three of them were all excellent in martial arts, and they destroyed most of the enemy army in a short time, and the remaining small number were captured by a group of Pingxi Mansion guards.

After solving the immediate crisis, Qi Yichuan and his party moved quickly towards the tower without stopping.

Pingxihou Mansion is located in the southwest of Shengjing, only a few streets away from the city gate. However, the distance that can be walked in a stick of incense on weekdays is particularly difficult to walk today.

The streets were filled with soldiers brought by General Xuanwu, and they were moving around in groups one after another, as if they were going to eliminate all signs of danger that might arise.

Qi Yichuan and his party rushed out from the dark corner and killed all the enemies in front of them with a sweeping sweep. At the end of the battle, there was only blood red in everyone's eyes.

By the time a group of people reached the city tower, only less than a hundred of the three hundred guards were left.

Qi Yichuan's body was covered in blood, and his eyes were scarlet. The cloak that Xie Zhaohua was wearing had been completely dyed red with blood, and even his hair was dripping with blood.

Fuyi was hiding in the darkness, and the soft sword in his hand gave off a cold light under the weak moonlight.

Killing on the tower is their common belief.

"Kill the rebels and open the city gate!"

Qi Yichuan gave an order, and everyone once again went for a killing without hesitation. They raised their knives and dropped them neatly, like a god of killing!

The soldiers guarding the city gate shouted loudly, and hundreds of soldiers rushed towards Qi Yichuan and his party. The battle was about to break out.

However, there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. Qi Yichuan and his party spent most of their energy fighting all the way, so they are already gritting their teeth and holding on.

Looking at the Pingxihou Mansion guards falling one after another behind him, Qi Yichuan said in a tragic voice: "Even if we fight to the last person, we must open the city gate!"

"Subordinates take orders!"

Although there are only a few dozen people left, the momentum of the guards has not been weakened by half.

Qi Yichuan and his party were facing each other head-on, while Fuyi had already bypassed the crowd and attacked the general who was giving orders on the tower. After finding a good position, Fuyi threw the soft sword in his hand straight away. There was a flash of cold light, blood spattered, and the general fell heavily to the ground. , his eyes widened, and he didn’t know who killed him until his death.

Fuyi's figure flashed, he had already jumped behind him to catch the soft sword, and started fighting on the tower again.

At this moment, there was a shaking sound in the distance, and the sound of horse hooves coming from far away, and soon it broke into Fuyi's line of sight.

While fighting, Fuyi shouted to Qi Yichuan and others: "The Qi family's army has arrived at the city, open the city gate!"

Without the command of the general, the soldiers guarding the city gate were like a pile of scattered sand. After Qi Yichuan was cut off by Xie Zhaohua, Xie Zhaohua threw a gun to remove the last obstacle blocking the city gate and successfully opened the city gate.

The city gate opened, and Qi Lie led the Qi family army to the city gate.

"Enter the city! Follow this general into the palace and hunt down the traitors!"

Seeing the mighty Qi army rushing into the city gate, Qi Yichuan, who had been exhausted for a long time, was finally able to relax for a moment, holding his long sword on the ground to steady his slightly swaying body.

Qi Lie glanced at Qi Yichuan, his eyes full of admiration.

Xie Zhaohua was at the end of her strength, but fortunately Fuyi helped her up in time to prevent her from falling to the ground.

Xie Zhaohua looked somewhere in the city, with tears in his eyes and a smile on his lips, "Dad, the Qi Army has successfully entered the city."

Xie Zhaohua knew very well that when he escorted her out of the siege, Wu Liehou had only a few thousand city guards left, but General Xuanwu had tens of thousands of soldiers. In addition, Wu Liehou had old injuries, so In the fierce battle, it was barely possible to say that he had a narrow escape.

From the beginning, Wu Liehou had no way of survival for himself. He was using his life to delay time for the Qi family army.

Li Yu had already left the Qi family army and strode towards this side.

Li Yu carried Qi Yichuan on his back, while Fu Yi carried Xie Zhaohua on his back. Together with the remaining dozen or so Pingxi Hou Mansion guards, the four of them quickly swept towards the direction of Prince Jing'an Mansion.

…

It was already past the middle of the day, but the lights were bright in the Jing'an Prince's Mansion.

Shen Qing was listening to the news coming from all sides in the courtyard.

Chan Yi and the other two kept changing her warm hand warmer and thick cloak.

Lu Yan had left the mansion when Lu Tingyu entered the city, and he had not returned yet.

At this moment, Li Yu carried Qi Yichuan on his back, and Fu Yi carried Xie Zhaohua on his back.

Shen Qing looked at the few people who were about to be stained with blood, and hurriedly asked Chan Yi and the other two to prepare clean clothes and medicine for their wounds.

In the face of the safety of the family and the country, the previous small favors and grudges were not worth mentioning.

At the same time, Shen Qing also received the news that the Qi family army had successfully entered the city, and his heart was immediately relieved.

Just now, the secret guards had reported back that General Xuanyi had entered the city from Dingbei Gate with 100,000 brave soldiers, and now they had arrived at the palace, and would soon face the guards brought by Lu Tingyu.

With the addition of the 200,000 Qi Family Army brought by Qi Lie, the dawn of victory can be seen faintly.

Qi Yichuan was seriously injured, with dozens of wounds of all sizes all over his body, especially the two wounds on his back and calf, which were deep enough to see the bones.

Li Yu was applying medicine to him.

Because of Qi Yichuan's protection, Xie Zhaohua was obviously much better, with only a few minor injuries, but as soon as she recovered a little strength, she clamored to go find Wu Lie Hou.

Shen Qing pushed her back, "Take care of yourself first, I will send someone to look for Wu Lie Hou."

Xie Zhaohua nodded in cooperation with tears in her eyes.

Let Mu Jin take care of Xie Zhaohua, Shen Qing turned and went out, and just as he stepped out of the door, he heard the secret guard report: "Princess, something happened in the palace, and now thousands of Qi Family Army have died in vain."

"What happened?" Shen Qing's face suddenly sank, and he asked in a cold voice.

The secret guard shook his head. "I'm not sure. I heard that there is a psychedelic array set up at the palace gate. If you get within five feet of the gate, you will lose your mind. And inside is an arrow array set up by the enemy."
