Xu Bin’s retreat is located in the corner of the hall, separated by a double screen into a space, and the two soldiers stayed faithfully outside. Li Mi walked over, waved his guard away, and stepped inside. Xu Bin was lying on the side of the bed with his face outward, his eyes closed, and a white cloth strip wrapped around his head.

Li Bifang approached lightly, suddenly his pupils shrank suddenly, and the whole person froze.

Xu Bin’s body was lying curled up toward the inside of the bed.

That is to say, his entire head and neck were turned around by force.

As the place where the emperor swallows the house, the decoration of the building of Qinzheng Affairs is as luxurious as possible. Lou Queshan came out, carved beam painting building, flying cornices hanging on the dangling, colored silk floating silk. This style looks extremely gorgeous, but once it is exposed to fire, it is a place to support combustion everywhere. No matter under the hall corridor, it is now covered with billowing black smoke, filling every void, like a madman splashing thick ink everywhere.

The distance from the third floor to the seventh floor is not very far, but Zhang Xiaojing’s physical condition has fallen to the bottom of the valley, plus a mess along the way, making this road a thorny road. He gritted his teeth, trying to avoid the broken porcelain scraps on the ground, and touched towards the stairs.

Along the way, he saw many servants and officials of various sizes. They lay down on the ground in various postures. Their lives and deaths were unknown. The case in front of them was up and down. These people were drinking at a banquet the moment before, and they were shocked the next moment. Zhang Xiaojing also found some corpses that were dressed differently from the guests, some with crickets and some with dragon martial arts.

It seems that after Chen Xuanli ascended the building, he encountered a strong resistance from the earthworm, but he has always maintained a forward posture.

Zhang Xiaojing rushed to the sixth floor in one breath and had to stop to catch a breath. Today, he basically didn’t eat much. He only ate some sesame oil cake a few hours ago. At this time, his belly was empty and there was a golden star hidden in front of him. He lowered his head slightly and saw a piece of roasted lamb leg under a fallen stone screen. The leg of lamb was roasted golden and tender, and the leg bone was still pinched by one hand.

It seems that when the explosion happened, this unfortunate guest was picking up the leg of lamb and was ready to enjoy it. The results shook together. Before he could take a bite, he was pressed under the stone screen. Zhang Xiaojing leaned over and dragged the leg of the lamb. His hand didn’t move. It seemed unlucky. Ironically, it was the surrounding fire that kept the temperature of the leg of the lamb unaffected.

Zhang Xiaojing opened his mouth wide and tore off one without any politeness, chewing in his mouth. In the end, it is the master chef’s craftsmanship. This lamb is roasted crispy and soft, and it is seasoned with precious spices such as cloves and pepper. It is also poured with apricot syrup. As soon as he fell, he immediately turned into a stream of heat to disperse his limbs and corpses, and slightly filled his vitality.

He was also hungry and ate while walking, and a fat leg of lamb licked his bones after a while. Zhang Xiaojing finally felt better, clutching this thigh bone, and came to the staircase entrance from the sixth floor to the seventh floor. Sweeping up, his eyes became stern.

On the stairs, there were four or five bodies lying on the ground, with the majority of the Dragon Martial Army, it can be seen that Chen Xuanli suffered an ambush here. Yuan Zai said that they did not come with more than a dozen people, so after counting, Chen Xuanli had very few people left. Even if he luckily broke through, it was a heavy loss.

But this can also prove that Xiao Xiao will never have too many people, otherwise there should be Chen Xuanli in these bodies.

Zhang Xiaojing put his bones in his waist and was about to climb the stairs. Suddenly his heart moved, and his feet were retracted back. Between the sixth and seventh floors, there are only two channels for passengers and goods, which must be guarded by Yan Bing. If you go up in a hurry, I am afraid you will be shot directly.

He walked lightly to the side of the building, where the eaves angle was very low, and a convex wooden lip turned over at the edge. Zhang Xiaojing grabbed his wooden lips, stepped on the trunk, and turned hard, and the whole person climbed on a diagonal ridge covered with Uva. Jog a few steps up the **** of the sloping ridge and jump over a carved fence to reach the seventh floor.

The seventh floor of Qinzheng’s main building is called the Star Picking Hall. It is a rectangular hall with no pillars, the floor is slightly inclined, the highest point on the north side is the emperor seat, facing north and south, the other seats are arranged in turn south and down, and the arch guard is under the royal seat. The so-called “for the sake of politics and morals, such as Beichen, where all the stars live together”.

To the south of the main hall, there is also a small Tianhan Bridge, which connects from the main body of the main hall to a wide flat wooden terrace outside, with clouds on both sides. Standing on the terrace, you can look far from the fence and look down at all people with excellent vision. The terrace is very close to the lamp house. The lamp house was just opened. The red chip is to throw candlelight here and start the lamp house.

Unfortunately, for this reason, when the explosion just happened, the flat wooden terrace collapsed for the first time, and fell down the city wall with the unlucky eggs standing above it and enjoying the lights. Tianhan Bridge was also damaged by half, leaving half of the miserable wooden frame half-twisted in the air, as if the remaining dragon wailed.

Zhang Xiaojing turned over the seventh floor, which happened to be the remaining bridgehead of Tianhan Bridge. He quickly stooped down, hiding next to the pillar beast, and looked in carefully. The smoke downstairs floated up, forming an excellent protection.

This hall is semi-enclosed, there is also a circle of Xingqing Palace’s southern wall outside, and Zhang Xiaojing desperately vented a lot of Que Lehuo’s energy. Therefore, the explosions and impacts just did not hurt the muscles and bones, and there was no death or injury, but the scene was a bit chaotic.

At this time in the Star Picking Palace, divided into three distinct groups of people. More than a hundred Chinese guests gathered together, shaking like a group of quails; standing next to them were dozens of crickets, armed with short crossbows and long knives, ready to start slaughter at any time. Farther south, Chen Xuanli and the Dragon Martial Army soldiers, who were not in ten people, raised their crossbows, but did not move forward, forming a confrontation. Other unrelated persons, such as maidservants of the choreography dance band, were rushed downstairs.

It seems that the combat effectiveness of the Longwu Army is still very amazing. It continuously broke through the defense and rushed to the seventh floor in one breath. Judging from the positions of the two parties, the Cricket may have just controlled the situation, and before he could do anything else, the Long Wujun rushed up.

It’s a pity that Chen Xuanli can’t go any further-Zhang Xiaojing clearly sees that at the highest point, Xiao Guizheng smiled and pointed the crossbow at a man wearing a reddish robe. Pedal Liuhe Boots-Li Longji, the Datang Emperor.

No wonder Chen Xuanli did not dare to act rashly, the life of the emperor is in the hands of the old veteran!

The Datang Decree stipulates that those who hold the qualities fight with the hostages. But in front of the emperor, this rule is meaningless.

And on many guests, there are large and small black spots stains, like the sticky material just sprayed, and the same specifications of pumps are scattered on the ground. Don’t need to read more, this must be Yanzhou Shizhi, which is on fire-that is, the earthworms can use a little fire at any time to burn all the Datang elites.

Zhang Xiaojing had a headache. The situation in front of him was too subtle. Several parties were in a state of high tension. With a slight change, it might evolve into the worst situation. The hostages are too expensive to be lost.

There is no time to delay, and after a while, there will be countless reinforcements swarming, so Xiao Xiao will definitely take action as soon as possible.

You can’t play, you can’t drag, this is simply a dead game.

It’s a pity that Zhang Xiaojing’s physical condition is too bad, it really can’t move, can’t forcibly break the situation. The only way is … Zhang Xiaojing’s big hand grasped the bridge post of the broken bridge, and suddenly squeezed hard, it seemed that he made an extremely difficult decision in his heart.

He stooped and sneaked into the temple from the broken bridge. This star picking hall is too wide, and there are so many people that nobody noticed him at all. With the help of those overturned cases and brackets, Zhang Xiaojing quickly approached the core of the confrontation.

Xiao Gui held the emperor, and Chen Xuanli’s crossbow pointed at Xiao Gui. Zhang Xiaojing calculated the timing, deliberately kicked a porcelain plate first, to attract everyone’s attention, to avoid being too nervous to crossbow. Then he slowly stood up and raised his hands loudly: “Jing Ansi Zhang Xiaojing is doing business!”

This voice sounded abruptly in the hall. Chen Xuanli could not help but glanced sideways, remembering that Zhang Xiaojing had been wanted by the whole city before, and then the wanted order was revoked, which made him slightly puzzled. Zhang Xiaojing took out a waist card from his waist and showed it to the people of Long Wujun. It was indeed good for Jing An Du Wei. This made the soldiers in the confrontation somewhat relieved-the Jingan Division had arrived, indicating that the reinforcements were not far away.

Xiao Gui’s crossbow still rested on Tianzi’s head, his face unchanged.

Chen Xuanli was still staring at Xiao Gui with all his attention, and his crossbows were still. Zhang Xiaojing walked up to him and whispered: “General Chen, the army is coming, please be sure to delay for a moment, everything is destined to the life of the Son.”

This is a nonsense, and still use your advice? Chen Xuanli snorted. Zhang Xiaojing said again: “But before this, there is a matter of urgency, let the general know first.”

“Speak!” Chen Xuanli kept his eyes fixed.

“I am also a scorpion.”

After finishing this sentence, Zhang Xiaojing shot suddenly, hitting the short crossbow in the hand of Chen Xuanli with the bone of the leg of lamb eating the rest. As soon as the crossbow was lowered, Xiao Xiao overturned the direction immediately, facing Chen Xuanli with an arrow, which shot through his shoulder. Zhang Xiaojing took a hook, tripped it, and raised his hand to catch the dagger Xiao Xiao just threw, aiming at Chen Xuanli’s throat.

In this series of actions, the two acted intimately, as if they had been drilled thousands of times. Zhang Xiaojing rode on Chen Xuanli with a dagger and shouted to the surrounding soldiers: “Put down your weapon, otherwise General Chen will die!”

In response to this shock, the soldiers of the Longwu Army looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Chen Xuanli raised his head and slammed: “Do not doubt the quality!” Zhang Xiaojing waved his hand into his neck and cut it straight out.

The soldiers had no heads, so they had to throw down the crossbow. Several worms quickly rushed over, bound these soldiers and threw them aside.

There was a commotion over the guests, and Chen Xuanli rushed to the seventh floor just now. But being disturbed by this unexpected guy, the situation was reversed instantly. Someone heard that he claimed to be a lieutenant in Jing’an. He was still a ghost inside, and he couldn’t even curse. The earthworms immediately started to suppress the commotion.

Zhang Xiaojing turned a deaf ear to the commotion, and he stood up straight and turned his gaze to the royal seat. Xiao Gui grabbed Tian Zi’s arm and shouted with joy to this side: “Big head, I know you will come!”

“I’m late.” He said briefly.

“Come, come, haven’t you seen the emperor yet?” Xiao Gui laughed and dragged the emperor towards the front like a dog, which caused the latter to groan with dissatisfaction. Xiao Gui sneered: “Your Majesty, Weichen is no different from your identity, but you and I are still a little bit alike-we all have one life.”

The emperor had no choice but to move a step forward.

Zhang Xiaojing looked up and walked slowly towards him and the emperor.

The last time he left Xiao Gui was an excuse to catch Mao Shun. Now that Mao Shun, Yuchang and the two guards are dead, Xiao Gui did not know that he was almost broken in the lamphouse. He still thought he was his own. Therefore, to break this round, Zhang Xiaojing had no choice but to continue to pretend to be a cricket, for which he spared no effort to attack Chen Xuanli.

As long as Xiao Gui is not suspicious, he waits for the opportunity to approach it, and suppresses it, and other crickets are not a threat.

The biggest risk of this move is that a little carelessness will cause a big misunderstanding, and he can no longer turn over, but he has no other way.

Zhang Xiaojing walked up level by level, getting closer and closer to the imperial seat. This is the first time he observes the emperor from a close distance. It is a 60-year-old fat old man with broad eyebrows and sharp jaws and ears, looking at his face. For more than thirty years, Yuyu has given him a natural dignity. Even if he is held by Xiao Gui at this time, he still loses his prestige. There was no trace of confusion in the slightly cloudy eyes.

It was this person who made the entire Datang National Power prosperous and carefully created the scene of the prosperous world in the 20th year of Kaiyuan. It was also this person that expanded the territory of Datang to the limit, and it was all over the world. But it was this person who indirectly created a monster like Cricket.

Zhang Xiaojing is still ten steps away from Xiao Gui and Tianzi. A little closer, he can launch a raid.

Going to the eighth step, his muscles were slightly tight, and he tried to squeeze out the last trace of strength in his bones, suddenly struggling. Xiao Xiao suddenly said at this moment: “Yes, big head, wait a minute.”

Zhang Xiaojing had to stop.

“I prepared a gift for you, take it!” Xiao Gui gestured, and a cricket rushed into the guest, grabbed a person from inside, and fell in front of Zhang Xiaojing.

Zhang Xiaojing took a closer look, lying down and trembling, a prince in a robe wearing a folded scarf, with a protruding nose and a slanted neck—it was Yongwang Liyin.

The two faced each other and pulled Zhang Xiaojing back to the scene last October.
