The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Assassins? The strongest assassin was here, then where did the people outside come from? Lin Wanrong held her small hand and said, "Jiejie, did you invite someone else to save me?"
An Biru glared at him and said angrily, "You, what are you saying. My White Lotus Sect has been destroyed by you, where would I find someone to save you? Do I have to go beg King Cheng, King Cheng — — "Her expression changed and she said in shock as if she had realized something," Could it be King Cheng? "
Lin Wanrong shook his head, expressing his confusion. At this moment, all the factions in the capital had gathered. Other than King Cheng, there were also the Turks and Goryeo. Any one of them had a reason to assassinate the Emperor.
Outside, shouts of killing and swords clashed. Occasionally, there would be screams of people falling to the ground. The conflict was very intense. On the contrary, the number of guards at the entrance of the prison had decreased.
"Let's go!" An Biru did not care which group was coming from outside. She covered her face with a veil and the two rushed out through the door.
The new batch of assassins had a fierce aura. More than half of the guards at the prison had been mobilized. A sharp light flashed in An Biru's eyes. The sword in her hand was like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, killing several people in the blink of an eye. Lin Wanrong held a gun in one hand and a bee sting in the other as he followed closely behind her. This was a battle of real swords and spears. If they were not careful, they might really lose their lives.
The two rushed out of the prison and looked into the courtyard. They were instantly shocked. They saw countless palace guards gathered in the courtyard, surrounding hundreds of assassins in black. In the distance, there was a dragon throne. The Emperor sat on the throne and looked at the battle with an expressionless face. Hundreds of guards surrounded him.
On the other hand, the assassins in black were covered in wounds. Some of them had arrows stuck in their bodies, but none of them fell. Instead, they became even more ferocious. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen guards were killed. They all died horribly and did not leave a complete corpse. In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred black-clothed assassins had created a large gap in the line of defense.
"Death warriors!" An Biru exclaimed.
"Corpses? What corpses? "Lin Wanrong was puzzled.
Sister An rolled her eyes at him and said softly, "Not corpses, but death warriors! These people had all been fed stimulant drugs. After being domesticated for a long time, their potential had increased by several times. At the same time, they had lost all their senses and were not afraid of death. No wonder we were able to escape so easily. With these 100 death warriors, we can fight against thousands of palace experts. How would they have the time to care about us? "
Damn, it turned out that he had taken stimulants and knockout drugs. No wonder he was so violent. When the guards beside the Emperor saw the men in black rushing over, they immediately shouted, "Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"
A man who looked like the commander of the imperial bodyguards hurriedly knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, the assassins are all men of sacrifice who have lost their senses. The situation here is dangerous, Your Majesty, please move quickly to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. "
The Emperor was enraged. He slapped the dragon throne and stood up, "How dare you! This is the Emperor's territory, the Imperial Prison. How can I retreat? I really want to see who wants to kill me! Gaoping, Gaoping — "
Eunuch Gao hurriedly rushed forward and said with a trembling voice, "Your servant is here!"
"Pass down the order. For the guards who died in the battle tonight, each of them will be compensated with a thousand taels of silver. Their families will be exempted from taxes for generations to come!" The Emperor said loudly.
"As you wish!" Eunuch Gao hurriedly accepted the imperial decree and left.
The eyes of the imperial bodyguards had already turned red. When they heard the Emperor was giving them such a generous reward, they became even more excited. Everyone risked their lives and fought with the hundreds of death warriors. The bodyguards used their bodies to form a human wall in front of the Emperor. From time to time, more bodyguards would rush over to join in. For a moment, the courtyard was filled with flesh and blood and screams.
Lin Wanrong stared blankly. Wasn't it just Sir Lin who was sent to prison? Was there a need to put on such a grand show? Big Sister An saved him, the Emperor personally came, and there were even piles of death soldiers and rivers of blood.
How could An Biru miss such a rare opportunity? She pulled Lin Wanrong's hand and said softly, "Let's go —" She lightly stepped forward and was about to rush out of the wall. However, she saw that Lin Wanrong was frowning and didn't move an inch.
"What's wrong?" An Biru hurriedly turned around and asked.
"Big Sister Master, you leave first." Lin Wanrong sighed softly and pointed at the Emperor. "I can't leave yet."
"Why?" An Biru was puzzled.
Although there were many bodyguards around the Emperor, they were all squeezed together. There were only a hundred of them who could really fight. Although the number of death warriors in black was only one-tenth of their number, they were incomparably ferocious. After losing more than half of them, they gradually approached the Emperor. Eunuch Gao was already pale with fear. The eyes of the Emperor of China flashed anxiously and he was even more dignified.
"Because he is my father-in-law!" Lin Wanrong smiled helplessly.
"You, you know everything?" An Biru was shocked. However, she saw Lin Wanrong's figure flashed and he had already rushed into the crowd.
A death warrior in black smashed the neck of a bodyguard with a punch and was about to step toward the Emperor. The Emperor sneered and his eyes flickered. However, he didn't look worried at all.
Seeing that there was no one around the Emperor and that death warrior was about to approach, Lin Wanrong became anxious. "Damn it, Qing Xuan's father, you can't die!"
In his anxiety, his body moved like lightning. In a flash, he was already in front of the Emperor. Who cares about his grandmother? The bee stinger and gun in his hands opened fire at the same time. With a loud bang, the death soldier's fist had just neared Lin Wanrong's body when he was struck by the gun. His body flew back a long distance, and a large hole appeared in his chest.
Lin Wanrong was gasping for breath. His heart was pounding, and cold sweat was dripping from his forehead. If the gun had been any slower, he would have sacrificed his life to protect the Emperor. He didn't know if the old Emperor would have given him a thousand taels of silver as compensation.
The Emperor looked around and saw that the person in front of him was actually Lin Wanrong, who had just escaped from the Imperial Prison. He couldn't help but chuckle and said slowly, "Lin San, why didn't you take this opportunity to escape? Why did you risk your life to save me?"
"Do you think I wanted to save you? If it wasn't for the sake of our friendship, I wouldn't have bothered to care about you!" Lin Wanrong said impatiently.
The Emperor laughed and pulled him back. "I know you have complaints, but you can't blame me. It's your fault for colluding with the White Lotus Mother. You have feelings for her, and she has never abandoned you. Could it be that the two of you really have some relationship? Haha, this is interesting. Lin San, I promise you that if you bring the White Lotus Mother into your room, I won't pursue her crimes anymore. "
"This is very difficult." Lin Wanrong frowned. "Old Master, you don't know, me and her disciple …"
"Don't say more. Be careful that I change my mind later, and it will be too late for you to regret it. "The Emperor withdrew his amiable expression and said sternly. The heart of an Emperor was indeed hard to fathom. Lin Wanrong shook his head and smiled bitterly.
On the other side, An Biru saw that Lin San and the Emperor were chatting happily. She remembered that Lin Wanrong said before he left, "He is my father-in-law." She couldn't help but feel sour in her heart. Yes, they are father-in-law and son-in-law. No matter how they quarrel, what does it matter if I am in the middle?
The Emperor pulled Lin Wanrong back. After seeing that his face and hands were covered with gunpowder after firing the gun, he nodded and smiled. "Since you have this gun in your hand, why didn't you shoot at me when I wanted to kill you?"
Do you think I don't want to? If it weren't for your relationship with Qing Xuan, I would have killed you even if there were ten of you. Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and didn't say anything. The Emperor smiled and sighed. "You child …" As soon as the words came out, he stopped in time. His eyes returned to the calm look of an ancient well, as if the voice just now didn't come from his mouth.
A large number of royal guards finally arrived. The Godly Arms Battalion fired the fire arrows at the same time, annihilating the hundred death soldiers in the raging fire.
Seeing that An Biru was looking at the fire in a daze, Lin Wanrong walked to her side and smiled gently. "Sister, do you still mean what you said just now?"
"What?" An Biru gently stroked the hair beside her ear and said with a charming smile.
"You said that after saving me, we'll go back to the Hmong village and live like deities." Lin Wanrong giggled and said, "Why did you forget what we just said in the blink of an eye?"
"You wish." An Biru gently tapped his forehead with her finger and returned to her usual coquettish look. "I was just joking with you. There are at least eight hundred men who have heard this from me, if not a thousand. Only you took it seriously. " After she finished speaking, she looked at him deeply. Avoiding his gaze, she tiptoed and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Lin Wanrong was in a daze. Eight out of ten times, Sister An's words were false. She didn't know which two of them were true.
"Lin San, do you remember what I said?" The Emperor slowly stomped to his side and looked at An Biru's figure with a smile. "If you want to save her, you must do as I say. I won't let an enemy live in this world. "
"Old man, you should just lock me up in the dungeon." Lin Wanrong frowned. "It's more difficult to marry Sister An than to save me from the dungeon!"
"Nonsense. How can you bargain with me like this?" The Emperor scoffed. "Are you addicted to staying in the dungeon? It's decided! Gao Ping, return to the palace … "
"Hey, old man, what about me? What should I do? I'm not going back to the dungeon, "Lin Wanrong hurriedly shouted.
The Emperor's carriage was already far away. Lin Wanrong shook his head helplessly. Eunuch Gao quietly walked over and looked at him. A trace of fear flashed across his face. He said, "Sir, His Majesty said that you've been working hard for the whole day. He specially allowed you to rest in the palace tonight …"
Rest in the palace? Lin Wanrong jumped up. The imperial harem belonged to the Emperor. Who would have the guts to stay here if they weren't related to the Emperor? What was the old man trying to do?
