At this time, the Empress looked at the sky. It was still gloomy, which made people very uneasy. "Your Majesty, I feel uneasy."
The Emperor patted her hand and comforted her, "It's okay. I've asked the Imperial Astronomer. Today is indeed a rare auspicious day! It can be said that it's a once in a hundred years opportunity! Otherwise … I wouldn't have let mother arrange it. "
Not far away, the Empress Dowager sat there with a sneer. Her eyes were staring at the Heaven's Seeking Platform in the middle of the field, as if she was looking forward to a good show.
GongYimo had been resting with her eyes closed. She felt that there would be a good show waiting for her today, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was.
At this time, the guard of honor had reached the end of the main road. Everything was going smoothly, and the people were in high spirits. It wouldn't be long before the guard of honor reached the Heaven's Seeking Platform. Hopefully, things would go smoothly!
But at this time! Suddenly, there was a sudden clap of thunder! The sky that was originally gloomy suddenly changed!
The light seemed to recede, and the sky became even darker. Evil wind surged!
The sudden gust of wind blew the sand into the people's eyes. The procession stopped moving. They held the things in their hands tightly. There couldn't be any trouble at this time!
The noise became louder and louder. Even the people felt that the weather was strange.
At this time, there was a sudden clap of thunder! And the sound seemed to be ringing in their ears!
Many people screamed, especially the women!
Most of the people were a little uneasy. It was rare to see such a phenomenon, let alone on a day like today!
The screams continued. The people who were guarding the two sides of the street retreated. Some people even shouted.
"A phenomenon from the heavens, destroy my Rong Chang!"
This voice was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing millions of ripples!
Hua —!
Seeing that the people were uneasy and that someone was spreading rumors, the guards on both sides of the road unsheathed their swords! They had been warned by Gong Dai. If anyone dared to cause trouble on such a day! There was only one outcome — death!
"A phenomenon from the heavens, destroy my Rong Chang! A phenomenon from the heavens, destroy my Rong Chang!"
At the end of the road, a grey robed man with a crazed expression suddenly walked out. His mouth was saying outrageous words, and his footsteps were disorderly as he walked straight towards the golden sedan.
Some commoners hid at the side and looked over curiously. They thought to themselves that this person really wasn't afraid of death. Didn't he see that there were so many guards there?
"Where did you come from? How dare you spread rumors and create trouble here! "
The vassal at the front roared. Without hesitation, he ordered, "Imperial Guards, listen to my order! Take him down quickly! "
In an instant! Ten Imperial Army soldiers clad in silver armor leaped out from the Imperial Army and pointed their blades at the newcomers. Their auras were astonishing, and it was obvious that they were elites specially groomed by Gong Dai!
"Monster? It just so happens that the evildoers are wreaking havoc in the world, and lightning strikes from the heavens to warn the world! "
His voice was very loud and traveled very far! At such a time when everyone was in a state of panic, it really made the hearts of the uneasy commoners thump heavily!
Was the princess a demon? Was that why God gave her a warning on the day she was reinstated?
"Take him down!" The vassal frowned and quickly retreated after giving the order. The Imperial Army elites had already brandished their blades and engaged in a battle with the crazed man.
But what was surprising was that the man's martial arts skills were extremely high! A rusty sword was being brandished by him in a casual manner, leaving no gaps for the wind to pass through!
When GongYimo heard the commotion, she couldn't sit still. But she was stopped by the vassal who had noticed it earlier!
"Princess, on such a day like today, you can't come out until you reach Heaven Seeking Platform! Otherwise, those people will use the excuse of not following the ancestral teachings to make things difficult for you! "
The vassal continued, "Don't worry, the Prince has countless elites under his command. He alone is no match for them!"
But he had underestimated the opponent's power!
Under the attack of the man in grey, the Imperial Army gradually lost. Under the flashes of the blades, they fell to the ground one by one, lifeless!
The vassal was a little anxious and hurriedly signaled the rest of the Imperial Army to move!
When had the commoners ever seen such a cold massacre?!
The suppressed exclamations grew louder, and the people were even more anxious!
At the same time, the heavens didn't let them off. The deep rumbling of thunder was incessant. In addition, the Imperial Army that surged forward later fell to the ground one by one. Captain Gong was in an uproar, and his own people were beginning to feel uneasy.
What kind of person was this? How dare he come alone to create trouble?!
The Imperial Army quickly moved to the middle, blocking Captain Gong with their bodies, and protecting him from behind.
If anything happened to the princess on such a day, they wouldn't be able to answer to the Prince!
"The return of the evildoer will bring chaos to the country! Don't help the evildoer! "
After finishing off the last Imperial Army that rushed forward, the crazy man pointed at Captain Gong with his sword and shouted as if he was persuading the people. At this moment, his clothes were as old as before, without a single bloodstain.
He was forcing GongYimo to make a move!
GongYimo's heart skipped a beat! First, it was the Empress Dowager who drugged her food. Then, she picked such a day where no one could see the mistake and found a peerless master to kill her?!
If she didn't accept the challenge, with this man's martial arts, even if she took him down in the end, many of Gong Dai's people would be injured or killed. At that time, blood would flow like a river, and it would be a disaster!
But if she accepted the challenge, according to the rules of the ancestors, she could only appear at the Heaven's Seeking Platform. If she came out now, she would leave behind something that those old antiques could use against her! Secondly, with so many layers of clothes, even if she wasn't poisoned, how could she fight? The other party's martial arts seemed to be on par with hers!
In a dilemma, GongYimo suddenly smiled. There was a master behind the Empress Dowager!
The Imperial Army felt a chill in their hearts. They knew that they couldn't let GongYimo make a move today. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to answer to the Prince!
So, only they could do it!
But just as the two sides were about to clash again and were about to win with numbers, the golden curtain fluttered slightly, revealing the figure of a half-reclined woman. Her voice was as pleasant as a breeze.
It sounded like a question or a sigh, like joy or sorrow, but it rang clearly in everyone's ears.
"I'm the evildoer?"
The man in gray was stunned, then laughed at the golden carriage.
"If it's not you, who is it?"
"And who are you?"
The other party sneered, "Someone who's about to die doesn't deserve to ask!"
GongYimo was amused, "Then are you here to fight with me?"
"Princess, you can't!" Before the man could speak, the leader said nervously, "Today is an auspicious day. You can't show yourself until you arrive at the Heaven's Seeking Platform!"
The man in gray laughed again, even raising his eyebrows in disdain, and swinging the rusted sword in his hand!
"Auspicious day? I think it's the death anniversary! "
His words silenced the golden carriage. He thought that he had scared the other party and was very proud. But the people beside the carriage heard a rustling sound from inside the carriage, as if the princess was tired of lying down and changed her position unhurriedly.
"Do you know?" There was a trace of mockery in the lazy voice as she snorted coldly.
"Those who wanted to kill me all died in the end!"
