Chapter 274 (1/2)

An Zeng, Du slender, Qu Liuxi, Gu Qianye, and four other youths in their sixties rushed towards the Magnificent Embroidery Palace.

No matter what, there was a feeling of a youth rus.h.i.+ng to the devil cave to slaughter dragons and save people. If the brocade palace was truly a devil's den and Empress Dowager Su really was an evil dragon, then the story would definitely spread and be praised.

But this was not a fairy tale, it was a desperate struggle.

Perhaps there is some people who do not understand why the dispute does not properly become a wealthy family, why must be involved in such a struggle.

The reason was simple. Revenge meant that the enemy would lose everything.

Although Su Qing was warm, and Zhuge Liuyun hated her, that didn't mean that he liked Mu Changyan and the fights between the imperial court and the imperial court.

On the contrary, An Zaiyan didn't like Mu Changyan and didn't like Mu Changyan, even if Mu Changyan wasn't a bad person.

As for the fight in the imperial court, if he liked this, then his opponent would die miserably. There would not be the fierce battle in the Cang Man Mountain, and there would not be anyone he thought was his brother stabbing him in the back.

The method of settling disputes was straightforward. Whether you liked it or not, you didn't like it.

He would not compromise with people or things he hated, so he was destined never to be a qualified politician.

But if one's position was important, it would affect the entire world.

He would develop his likes and erase those he didn't like.

So whether a politician or an avenger, what Anjou doesn't like is the ugliest thing in the world.

The four of them moved through the darkness, gradually approaching the embroidered palace.

Someone said that he would not trip over the same stone twice.

Therefore, An Zaixin decided to enter Heavenly Temple. He had taken Mu Changyan away from Heavenly Temple, which had caused the brocade palace to become pa.s.sive.

But it was luck, not strategy.

If the tussle had been a calculating man, he might have started off with a game of smokes.

After leaving the Celestial Sect, they quickly traversed at least two li. Even though the Celestial Sect of Wonders was in full swing during the day, the vast majority of the capital's citizens were still sleeping comfortably tonight.

The citizens would worry about the future of Great Yan, but in the eyes of most people, his future wasn't as important as eating tonight.

As soon as the fight began, Du was thin in the back, and the two girls were in the middle.

At the exit of an alley, An Zui leaned out to take a look.

From time to time, the Imperial Cavalry patrolled the streets, and the sound of their hooves was followed by a chilling silence.

The City Defense Army's cavalry was mostly in the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect, and although their numbers were small, they were incomparably elite.

The vast majority of the city defense army did not dare to partic.i.p.ate in this battle that involved the regime change. They chose to silently give up. Of course, they would not accept the orders of the brocade palace to attack the Heavenly Ascension Sect.

Perhaps they think this surrender is safe, but it is not.

If the brocade palace wins in the end, then the soldiers who gave up their choice of city defense army will be cleared.

If, in the end, they won the war, there would be no liquidation. But Chen wrote a letter for the military, and the city defense army would never be used again.

The reality was that even bystanders would not have a good ending.

At this point, only the Imperial Guards of the capital were able to patrol the streets. As for the bailiffs of the Fang family … it was said that most of them had already taken off their official uniforms and went into hiding.

In this chaotic world, a person's life was light and lowly. If others were not heavy, how could he not be heavy?

At that moment, An Zeng saw five people dressed in black quickly moving towards the eastern city.

They didn't deliberately hide themselves. Their speed was extraordinarily fast, but no matter how one looked at it, it seemed especially strange.

An Zaihe couldn't help but think of the strange Feng Xiugui from before, and he couldn't help but pay more attention to him.

The five of them walked with big strides. They were practically flying.

To be more accurate, they were flying with a bounce. Their legs and knees didn't bend when they walked, which was why they looked so strange.

The sound of horse hooves could be heard from afar, and at least twenty cavalrymen could vaguely see those men. The leader of the Imperial Guards immediately shouted, ””Who are they?!””

It was already so late, and in this situation, who would be strolling on the streets like a normal person?

More than twenty cavalrymen galloped over, blocking the five people in front of them.

The leader of the Imperial Guards raised their torches to take a light. ””What are you doing?””

Didn't you know about the curfew tonight? ””

Actually, these Imperial Guards were not willing to be nosy at a time like this.

This was because they knew very well that those who dared to come out during the curfew were most likely not people they could deal with.

Regardless of whether they were from the brocade palace or the Heavenly Awakening Sect, encountering him was not something they could afford to provoke.

Therefore, when he led his men to charge over, he regretted it. Thus, he only wanted to ask a few simple questions to avoid embarra.s.sing himself in front of his subordinates.

The moment the light of the torch faded away, the officer of the Imperial Guards turned pale. ””Oh my!””

He cried out and fell off his horse in fright.

As he shouted, the Imperial Guards behind him drew their sabers, not knowing what was going on.

The man in black standing at the front slowly reached out his hands from his sleeves as the Imperial Guard drew their knives.

It was a little farther away, and the night was so dark, that by the light of the torchlight Andersen could only see the man stretch out his hands, and one by one the Imperial Guards fell from their horses.

Before the soldiers fell down, they seemed to have turned into stones, not moving at all. They remained in the posture of riding their horses and fell to the side.

An Xuan frowned slightly. Those five were very strange.

The sky was dark, and most of those people were heading towards the eastern part of the city.

After a moment, the five seemed to look down for a moment, then moved on.

Andersen signaled for Skinny Du and the other three to wait. He went over alone to take a look.

Nothing.
