Xin Yu rode a horse and walked beside Wan Yanjing. Even now, he still felt a little uneasy.
When encountering this situation, it is inevitable that people will be confused.
If your own people are fine, if not, there will be endless variables.
But no matter what, Wan Yanjing, who had received confirmation from both sides, was completely convinced of the current situation.
"Your Highness, there is a surprise attack outside the city!"
The messenger suddenly rushed over, but Wan Yanjing was not panicked.
"How many people came?"
"Only a few hundred people, no more than a thousand."
After snorting coldly, Wan Yanjing waved his hand, signaling the subordinates gathered around him to step back.
"It's just a fight between trapped beasts, no one will be left alive."
Xin Yu knew that the person who came was Lin Mengya's. Up to now, things had not exceeded their expectations. He just looked back and forth before whispering.
"Just now, my subordinates saw that a lot of people have gathered in the royal city. If your highness allows the army to enter the inner royal city now, you may be restrained."
This time, they brought as many as 50,000 people.
The entire royal city has been completely surrounded by them, and among the fifty thousand people, most of them are elites from various tribes and clans who support Wanyanjing.
Wan Yanjing didn't have much trust in these people.
What he relies on today is the ten thousand confidants he personally brought out.
Xin Yu's eyes passed over a group of figures hidden under blue-grey armor, but he felt a little nervous.
He had only heard that these ten thousand people were trained by Wan Yanjing using a very special method.
Although it is not enough to fight one against a hundred, it is far beyond ordinary people.
Fortunately, there were many people in the inner royal city who were incited by them.
Even though Wan Yanjing would never care about the life and death of these people, now, it is obvious that he cannot lose these people's support.
"That's fine. I'll bring three thousand elite soldiers in, and the others will surround all the exits of the inner royal city. No one is allowed to leave without my order."
Wan Yanjing was more cautious than Lin Mengya thought. With the current strength of the royal city, five thousand men were enough to massacre the city.
Xin Yu only saw the cold eyes of that man flashing with bloodthirsty cold light, and his heart shrank, fearing that what Wan Yanjing wanted was not just a throne.
The people's emotions were calmed down, and before they knew it, the real civilians were isolated to the fringes of the crowd.
At some point, a group of people wearing civilian clothes blended into the crowd.
There were so many people that it was hard to tell them apart for a while.
"His Royal Highness the Prince has returned to the city—"
Not far away, a voice suddenly came.
The people, like frightened birds, quickly knelt down and made way to the palace.
Lin Mengya hid herself on the palace wall. With her excellent eyesight, she narrowed her eyes and watched the group of people approaching little by little.
The atmosphere in the crowd was still very peaceful, and Wan Yanjing, as cunning as he was, couldn't sense the secrets hidden within.
Xin Yu's expression was as usual, and he was still standing behind Wan Yanjing, fulfilling his duty of being a bitch.
At this time, Wanyan Jing was very proud, and the sneer on his lips was filled with pride that he had never seen before.
He has been planning for so many years, and finally, Lieyun will be completely his!
The black stone walls of the palace were getting closer and closer in sight, and Wanyanjing suppressed her urge to gallop on her horse.
Soon, this will be his palace!
Close! Getting closer!
Lin Mengya clenched her fists in her hands, and behind her, an archer with extremely well-developed arms had already fully drawn the bow.
"put!"
She shouted coldly in a low voice, and the feather arrow rushed out instantly.
The sound of piercing the air exploded. Wanyanjing watched the arrow getting closer and closer to him, but the long sword in his hand was always ready to go. He turned sideways, swung the sword, and slashed at the feather arrow.
The feather arrow broke in response and fell to the ground.
Wan Yanjing seemed to have expected that someone would take action. He sat up straight and shouted loudly.
"Come here, kill me!"
The five thousand elite soldiers behind him immediately rushed forward regardless, and the crowd was about to be dispersed by them in an instant.
At this time, the people kneeling on both sides of the front row immediately pressed the people behind to move away.
And on the walls of the houses on both sides of the road, many figures suddenly appeared.
These people are all dressed up differently, but the only thing they have in common is that they all hold a bulging dough bag in their hands.
After the people were pushed into the alley, those people immediately took the things in their pockets and threw them at the elite soldiers.
Wan Yanjing thought it was some kind of hidden weapon, but when he took a closer look, he saw that it was just small cloth bags the size of a palm.
Those cloth bags contained only light yellow powder. For a moment, all his elite soldiers were trapped in the light yellow powder mist.
"what happened?"
Wan Yanjing only heard the sound of people coughing, but his soldiers would never fall like this.
The strange thing is that no one answered him except the subordinates around him.
"Your Highness, don't worry, I'll go take a look!"
Xin Yu turned around and ran towards the back.
The attack of the yellow powder came to an end temporarily, and the air soon blew away the clouds and fog, but his proud elite soldiers all lay on the ground in pieces.
Xin Yu, who was not far away, rode away in a gallop.
Only then did Wan Yanjing realize that he had been deceived!
"This thing is poisonous!"
The people around him who were still involved had already smelled the faint medicinal fragrance remaining in the yellow powder.
Wanyan Jing took a deep breath, but his heart was filled with rage.
These things are of no use to ordinary people at all, but to his elite soldiers, they are no less than arsenic/frost!
"Send a signal! Let them attack and retreat temporarily!"
The man next to him acted immediately, but before the flying fireball could be sent out, a crossbow arrow hidden in the dark flew out, rushing his subordinate off his horse and staring at the ground.
"Don't bother, they will never hear from you!"
A lazy voice came, and before Wanyanjing's eyes, a man with a slender figure and delicate eyebrows like a monster appeared.
"You are Qinghu!"
Qinghu nodded, with complete contempt for the man in his eyes.
"That's right, come on, let me see how powerful you, the great prince of Lieyun Kingdom, are!"
The sword in his hand was like lightning, flying down from the roof in an instant and stabbing the person on the horse.
Wanyanjing's eyes tightened, and then he dragged the guy next to him as a scapegoat. He took advantage of the moment Qinghu's sword penetrated the man's chest, and used a fierce move to take Qinghu's head... .
The situation was reversed. Under the cover of yellow powder, at least 70% of the 5,000 people were lying on the ground. The remaining ones also affected the combat effectiveness to some extent.
Those who were hidden among the people also came out. Although they were slightly more numerous, they were evenly matched with those people.
At this moment, even Ning Qiu looked confused. She didn't understand why those people completely lost their fighting power in a short period of time.
"Let's go, leave the rest to Xiaoyu and the others."
The palace door opened, and the sergeants poured out like a tide.
But these people only attacked those elite soldiers who could still fight. The pretenders, who had temporarily relieved the pressure, ran to the elite soldiers who were still lying on the ground to touch up their wounds.
"Girl, what on earth is going on?"
The two people came down from the palace wall under the escort of the guards. Ning Qiu couldn't help but ask.
There were people running out on both sides, but no one laid eyes on them.
"Let's go and find the king and queen. I'll tell you then."
After taking a look at the alien situation, Lin Mengya took a deep breath.
The ensuing melee was beyond her control. She could handle the intrigues, but marching and fighting was really not her strong point.
Soon, the two people arrived at the meeting hall.
The place was completely surrounded, with three floors inside and three floors outside. I was afraid that no one could come in except them.
"Helan has met the king and the queen."
With her eight-month pregnant belly, Lin Mengya wanted to salute, but was immediately supported by the queen.
"Good boy, you are inconvenient now and you are a great benefactor to our family. Don't worry about these false gifts. Come and sit down."
The queen's beautiful eyes were smiling, and she looked at the woman in front of her earnestly.
Lin Mengya also met the queen for the first time since entering the palace, and she had a lot to say in her heart.
It's just that now is not the time to reminisce about the past.
"Sister, I... I'm going out!"
Behind the queen, Xiaoyu, dressed in military uniform, looked a little nervous.
But what made him even more at a loss was facing the woman who would always occupy the first place in his heart.
"Well, be careful, we'll wait for you to come back."
With gentle but firm eyes, her Xiaoyu finally reached the time to fight against the sky.
The child nodded heavily, put on his helmet, took his long sword, and strode out of the meeting hall.
Lin Mengya's pretended relaxation was replaced by worry.
After all, I am still worried.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoyu is a good boy and will be Lieyun's best king."
The queen gently pulled her hand up. Lin Mengya turned her head and saw the gentle smile on the queen's face.
"Yes, he is my brother and your son, so he will never let us down."
She should have more confidence in Xiaoyu than anyone else, right
They habitually gently caress their bellies and let them wait for the news of victory with the baby.
"Your Majesty, I have something that I want you to answer no matter what."
Lin Mengya raised her head and said seriously to the king.
The king looked at her calmly, nodded, and spoke.
"What you want to ask is about the orthodoxy of the royal family. Is it not just my branch? Yes, it is indeed the case. Although the royal bloodlines that are not direct descendants are somewhat different from ours, and they cannot feed the king Gu. But still One of them, their blood can also feed the king Gu. But these people should have died decades ago."
Except for the king himself, no one else is qualified to know this kind of royal secret.
But now, he has nothing to hide.
"Then, where was the last place they appeared?"
Lin Mengya asked, but the king just looked at her with a complicated expression and said in a low voice.
"It's in this palace."
