Chapter 377 Return to the Forbidden City

Wei Ziyun and Lu Xiaofeng left first, and everyone followed far behind.

It was so lively, if you didn't watch, wouldn't it be a lifelong regret?

So, with Su Shaoying leading the way, everyone followed him.

And Yin Xian and other palace guards were grateful for Su Shaoying's previous reminder, as long as they didn't get too close to the Southern Study where the emperor slept, they didn't stop them.

Just when they were still some distance away from the Southern Study, a delicate shout came from there.

The honest monk's face changed, and he heard Ouyang Qing say, "It's the voice of the aunt!"

Su Shaoying nodded, "The aunt has done a great job in saving the emperor. Red Shoes will have a backer in the future."

Ouyang Qing looked at Su Shaoying, "You really knew it a long time ago!"

Everyone looked at Su Shaoying, and Yin Xian said with some resentment, "You knew it a long time ago, but didn't tell us?"

Su Shaoying blinked, "But I don't have any evidence. What if nothing happens, how embarrassing?"

Everyone looked at Su Shaoying with contempt. Just based on his calm expression just now and his words to squeeze Sikong Zhaixing, if he was not sure, everyone would rather believe that the sow would climb the tree.

The next moment, a white figure broke through the night and appeared on the eaves of the hall next to it.

"It's Ye Gucheng!" Yin Xian shouted.

He was dressed and looked exactly like the fake Ye Gucheng just now, and he also held a black sheathed long sword with a strange style. His lightness skills seemed to be as if he had ascended to heaven in the air, floating like flying.

Sikong Zhaixing couldn't help but smack his lips. It was only now that he really believed, "He actually went to assassinate the emperor!?"

The next moment, another white figure suddenly appeared at the end of the eaves where Ye Gucheng was.

Ye Gucheng suddenly stopped.

It was Ximen Chuxue who appeared in front of him!

At the same time, behind Ye Gucheng, two more figures broke through the night fog. One was Lu Xiaofeng, and the one next to him was a plain-looking palace maid, but the two short swords in her hands exposed her identity.

"Auntie!" Ouyang Qing shouted.

Gongsun Da Niang flew over, "You are here too!"

Ouyang Qing asked hurriedly, "What's going on?"

"Ye Gucheng and Prince Pingnan conspired to usurp the throne and murder the emperor, using Prince Pingnan's son Li as a substitute." Gongsun Da Niang said.

"A substitute?" Ouyang Qing asked in surprise, "Aren't they afraid of suspicion?"

"The Prince of Pingnan looks exactly like the emperor." Gongsun Da Niang explained, "Chief Wang is their insider in the palace."

"Chief Wang?" Ouyang Qing said, "Is it the chief steward Wang who went to Yiqing Courtyard?"

Gongsun Da Niang nodded, "That's him!"

Lu Xiaofeng approached Su Shaoying and said bitterly, "You knew everything a long time ago, but you didn't tell me anything?"

Su Shaoying blinked innocently, "You said you would investigate it yourself, how can you blame me now?"

"Me!" Lu Xiaofeng was speechless, "Aren't you afraid that Gongsun Da Niang can't stop Ye Gucheng?"

"Gongsun Da Niang can't stop Ye Gucheng, but she can still delay time, and you The information obtained is also enough, I believe you can react. "

Lu Xiaofeng was very proud of receiving praise, but he still asked curiously, "Since you know everything, why don't you come here in person?"

Su Shaoying glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, "Are you stupid?"

Lu Xiaofeng was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Su Shaoying raised the first finger, "I am the successor of the leader of Emei Sect. Emei Sect and Shu Wangfu are partners in the open. Will the emperor trust me?"

Then he raised the second finger, "If I really gain the trust of the emperor and get close to the emperor, will Shu Wangfu continue to trust Emei Sect in the future?"

"I will never do something that is not pleasing to both sides. It is enough for you and Gongsun Da Niang to do it." Su Shaoying said lightly.

Lu Xiaofeng was dumbfounded, "You actually considered so much?"

"So I am the successor of the leader of Emei Sect, and you are just a lone helper." Su Shaoying said.

Lu Xiaofeng curled his lips, "I'd rather be a lone ranger!"

...

At the same time, Ximen Chuxue, who had stopped Ye Gucheng, suddenly asked, "You learn sword?"

Ye Gucheng's heart sank to the bottom, but he calmed down at the same time, "I am the sword."

"Do you know the essence of the sword?" Ximen Chuxue asked.

"You say."

"It's about sincerity." Ximen Chuxue said, "Only with sincerity can one reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship. People who are not sincere are not worthy of discussing swordsmanship."

Ximen Chuxue stared at Ye Gucheng, "You are not sincere."

Ye Gucheng was silent for a long time. He did not directly answer Ximen Chuxue's words, but asked the same question, "Do you learn swordsmanship?"

Ximen Chuxue said lightly, "Learning is endless, and swordsmanship is even more endless."

Ye Gucheng said, "Since you are learning swordsmanship, you should know that people who learn swordsmanship only need to be sincere to the sword, not to people."

Su Shaoying nodded. Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship has not only surpassed Guo Songyang, but his realm is also far above Lu Fengxian. Even in such an unfavorable realm, his state of mind has not been really hit.

And when Ye Gucheng said his definition of swordsmanship and sincerity, Ximen Chuxue did not respond, because he had said everything.

The end of the road is the end of the world, and the end of the words is the sword.

However, the palace guards, who were already frightened and wanted to make up for their mistakes, did not give Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue a chance to fight fairly. Dozens of swords, knives, and guns, flashing cold light, had already surrounded him.

The next moment, the crowd made way, and Wei Ziyun appeared in front of the guards with cold sweat on his forehead.

"Lord of Baiyun City." Wei Ziyun didn't understand, "The Lord of the City is far away in the sky, his sword is like a fairy, and he is also like a fairy. Why do you degrade yourself to the mortal world and do such an unwise thing?"

Ye Gucheng said coldly, "You don't understand."

Tu Fang was standing behind Wei Ziyun, also sweating, and said angrily, "We really don't understand, but we do understand that the crime you committed is a crime that will be punished by thousands of cuts and nine clans!"

Ye Gucheng snorted, without any fear, "You can't practice swordsmanship, and you are not good at swordsmanship. You dare to be rude to me, and you are also guilty of death."

"You!" Tu Fang was stunned, and he really couldn't understand why Ye Gucheng was so stubborn when he was already dead at this time?

So the furious Tu Fang was ready to attack Ye Gucheng.

But Ximen Chuxue suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

Even in this time of swords and guns, the protagonists of the scene are still Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue, so Ximen Chuxue's sudden voice instantly attracted everyone's attention, and no one dared not to listen to him.

But Ximen Chuxue's words were beyond everyone's expectations, "If I join hands with Ye Gucheng, who in the world can resist?"

Wei Ziyun, Tu Fang, Yin Xian, Ding Ao, the four commanders all broke out in cold sweat on their faces.

If Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng are back to back, before their strength declines, no one can hurt them, and if they want to break out, they can indeed break out of the palace.

Ximen Chuxue looked at Wei Ziyun, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Wei Ziyun shook his head immediately.

He understood in his heart, but he pretended not to understand, because he was not Ximen Chuxue. In addition to the name of Xiaoxiang Swordsman, he was also the head of the four commanders of the palace.

He must take down Ye Gucheng himself to make up for his mistakes.

Now that the matter has become a big deal, even the emperor has been affected. If Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue continue to duel, how will he explain if the emperor investigates?

But Ximen Chuxue did not give him time to hesitate.

"At this moment, I just want to fight with Lord Ye. I don't care about life, life, death, honor or disgrace." Ximen Chuxue said lightly, "What is the joy of life, what is the fear of death, I have no regrets in death if I have a confidant, and I have no regrets in death if I can get an opponent like Lord Baiyun."

Wei Ziyun said with difficulty, "Although I understand what you mean, what can I do..."

"Are you forcing me to accompany him to break out first and then fight in another place?" Ximen Chuxue asked.

Wei Ziyun really couldn't answer, so he had to look back at Lu Xiaofeng and Gongsun Da Niang. These two people had just saved the emperor and were qualified to speak at this time.

Gongsun Da Niang didn't say anything, but Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but sigh, "What are you waiting for?"

Wei Ziyun couldn't help but ask, "Waiting for what?"

"You don't even know how to write the word li in yuweng de li, do you?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.

Wei Ziyun thought about it, and it seemed that there was only one way left at this time. If Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng were really forced to join forces to break into the palace, then he would be more guilty.

So this veteran swordsman also thought it through, and simply gave up to the end, "Since this battle is inevitable and will be famous for thousands of years, there should be no regrets."

So everyone returned to the top of the Forbidden City again.
