"Master, the Dragon Sect's army has arrived outside Chang 'an City. The south city gate is under martial law. The Marquis of Yong' an is personally leading the Left and Right Guards to resist the Dragon Sect's army!"
Chonghua Square, west of Chang 'an City. An old servant came to the study and bowed to a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes.
The middle-aged man was slightly stunned when he heard this. He couldn't help but clench his fists behind his back. After a short pause, he turned to look at the old servant and sighed. "What will come will come. This day has finally come!"
The old servant hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you really plan to …"
Although he didn't finish his words, the middle-aged man knew what he wanted to express.
"Sigh! How could this old man not want to spend the rest of his life in peace? But the Crown Prince was a great benefactor to this old man. On the surface, we were monarch and subject, but in secret, we were best friends. This kindness is unforgettable even in death! In front of the Black Tortoise Gate, this old man had no power and could only watch as the Crown Prince was shot to death. Now that his descendants have sent people to find me, how can this old man stand by and watch? If this is really the case, how can this old man face the Crown Prince in the underworld after a hundred years? "
After a long silence, the middle-aged man painfully closed his eyes and muttered to himself.
When the old servant heard this, he couldn't help but fall silent. When he saw the middle-aged man raise his foot and intend to leave, he was still slightly unwilling and said, "Master, what if …"
"If the Dragon Sect's army is defeated, you take Madam and Young Master out of the city and escape!"
Without waiting for the old servant to finish, the middle-aged man waved his hand and said.
With that, he didn't stay any longer. He went directly to the door and pushed it open.
"Master! You can't go out! "
The middle-aged man came out of the study and into the courtyard. Just as he was about to leave, a woman suddenly came out of the side courtyard and blocked his path.
"His Majesty ordered this old man to enter the palace to discuss matters. Madam, what are you doing?"
The middle-aged man's expression changed, but he quickly returned to normal. He frowned and asked in a deep voice.
Who knew that the woman wouldn't listen to a single word. She said anxiously, "Master, don't try to deceive me. I heard everything you said to the Heavenly Dragon Sect's Venerable! Master, normally, this concubine doesn't understand the important matters of those countries and doesn't dare to interrupt. But this time, this concubine has to advise Master. Master, King Xi is dead. No matter how good King Xi was to you back then, he's already dead. Do you really want to disregard the safety of our family for that groundless descendant of King Xi? Are you really willing to do that? "
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. He didn't expect that the conversation between Du E and him would be overheard by his wife. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice, "Madam, you don't understand! Today, this old man must go! Get out of the way! As for the price, if the Heavenly Dragon Sect is defeated, take him away from Chang 'an! "
After saying that, he used his hand to push the woman away, intending to forcefully leave.
"Master! You can't go! He's still young. Master, you can't do anything stupid! "
The woman didn't give up. She went forward and hugged the middle-aged man, crying.
…
On the south gate tower of Chang 'an City.
At this time, Li Zexuan had already arrived, and Zhao Song came with him. Now, the number of gurus left in Chang 'an City could be counted with one hand. Although Zhao Song had dropped a "rank" because of the compression of Genuine Qi last year, he was a veteran guru after all and quickly cultivated his realm back. This time, he accompanied Li Zexuan to guard the city. On the one hand, he helped Li Zexuan hold the line. On the other hand, he wanted to see with his own eyes which officials would come to the city to "stir up trouble"!
