In the Jinling City, the Forbidden Palace, there were singing and dancing, celebrating the grand ceremony.
Inside the Jin Palace.
Zhao Lingcheng was wearing a prince's armor and sitting in the hall with a sandbox map of the entire Jinling City in front of him.
Surrounding the sand table map are the ten lieutenants who used to follow him in his southern and northern campaigns. Now, they were all urgently recalled to his side by Zhao Lingcheng with a royal order.
Zhao Lingcheng tapped the wide armrest of his seat again and again.
He has been fighting all his life, and there are many more critical and unfavorable situations than now.
However, Zhao Lingcheng has never been so flustered as he was when facing this battle tonight.
He couldn't control his panic, which prevented him from being as calm as before on the battlefield.
He was even a little nervous and his fingers were trembling.
Although Zhao Lingcheng did not say anything explicitly about the ten lieutenants, now that the sand table map was in front of them, they probably understood what Zhao Lingcheng was going to do.
Guards from the Jin Palace kept coming to report——
"Report, His Highness the King of Jin, Mr. Lu Minghui, has lured Cao Xi, the governor of the East Factory, out of Jinling."
"I know, let's investigate again and report again." Jin Wang Zhao Lingcheng responded coldly.
"Report, His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Mr. Yi Junhan, has led the dead men of the royal palace to sneak into the palace, thinking that they are inside."
"Well, let's investigate again and report again."
"Report, His Highness King Jin, our people have falsely reported that there is a big demon that is infesting and eating people in the East China Sea. Yan Weiyu, the commander-in-chief of the Demon Suppression Department, has led half of the top officials of the Demon Suppression Department to the East China Sea to slay the monster overnight."
"Well, let's investigate again and report again."
"Report to His Highness the King of Jin, the City Defense Department has opened the gates of Jinling City, and the garrison has entered the city under the leadership of General Zhu and General Zhou, and is at your disposal at any time."
"Okay, let's investigate again and report again."
"Report, General Yuchi Zuo's messenger has been contacted. General Yuchi Zuo has personally led 50,000 elite troops of the direct line, and is traveling through the starry night to Jinling. It is expected to arrive early tomorrow morning."
"Tomorrow morning? It's a bit too late. I'm afraid the night will be long and I'll have many dreams." Zhao Lingcheng whispered to himself.
At this time, a captain of the palace guard stumbled over. He knelt down directly in front of Zhao Lingcheng and said -
"Prince Jin, an assassin using maces and flying needles just appeared in the palace and killed several guards. I'm afraid it's the same assassin who was at the Jinling Poetry Conference."
"Is it that guy? Where are the others?!"
"We almost killed him, but in the end we let him run away."
The captain of the guard was a little panicked, and he continued to add: "... I saw that he had been around Prince Jin's palace before, and I am afraid that he had overheard your conversation. I am worried, little man, whether he would
Spread the word?"
"waste!"
Jin Wang Zhao Lingcheng shouted angrily, drew his sword and chopped off the head of the guard captain with one strike.
He looked around and knew that the arrow was on the string at this moment and had to be fired.
"I can't wait any longer for General Yuchi."
Zhao Lingcheng said, gritting his teeth, he went straight to the courtyard of the palace, followed by ten lieutenants.
In the courtyard of the palace, the City Defense Department, the Jinyi Department, the Ministry of War, and all the sergeant commanders in Jinling City who still support Zhao Lingcheng have arrived here.
The armor and stomach of Zhao Lingcheng's body reflected the light of the torch.
He looked at this group of solemn and neat sergeants, holding their swords horizontally, with a crazy face, and said angrily -
"Everyone, life and death, honor and disgrace, all depend on this!"
"...In the future, you will all be the greatest contributors!"
"...Follow me!"
"...Surge into the palace and establish a new king!"
…
Tonight, the King of Jin forces the palace.
The originally bright moonlight suddenly changed at this moment, the clouds suddenly became dense, and soon it began to rain heavily.
In the rainy night.
The sword flashed.
The once prosperous Jinling City is now filled with only the sounds of bloody fighting.
Heavy rain washes the ground.
At first, they were able to take away the blood, but later on, the Sixth Division of the Forbidden Army and the soldiers and horses of the King of Jin,
It was already a river of blood.
On the palace floor and on the marble tiles, only a winding sea of blood and countless corpses were left.
…
…
Jinling City.
late at night.
At the beginning of this night, Jinling City was no different from before, it was still brightly lit.
Even the palace and the city were a little too prosperous because of the engagement ceremony of Princess Taiping and the Crown Prince.
But suddenly, in the second half of the night, it started to rain heavily.
This is the cold rain in winter in the south, which is extremely rare.
The night market closes early.
Countless shops in the city have also closed their doors.
The people of Jinling City turned off their lights and went to bed early.
As if they had suddenly received an order, they closed the doors and windows in an orderly manner.
No one knows what's going on.
But it wasn't until later that they heard the deafening shouts of killing...
…
In Jinling City, fighting was fierce everywhere.
The 30,000 rebels led by Zhao Lingcheng had already entered the city. The first thing they encountered was the Sixth Division defenders who had received orders from the master of the secret door and were coming to replace the City Defense Department guarding the city gate.
But the defenders of the Sixth Division arrived a step too late...
Fierce street fighting broke out between the two sides in the northern city.
The King of Jin fought bravely and led his troops several times to break into the enemy's formation and defeat the defenders of the Sixth Division.
Coupled with the help from the City Defense Department and other followers of the Jin King inside Jinling City, in less than an hour, except for a few places in the vast northern part of Jinling City, the rest was under the control of Jin King Zhao Lingcheng.
At this moment, King Jin no longer cared about anything else and led the most elite troops around him, heading straight for the Forbidden Palace.
…
Inside the palace.
It rained heavily.
In the narrow alley, Yan Wulu, wearing a palace hat and a raincoat, quickly passed through with a gun.
He had already discussed with the Crown Prince, Prince Yu and others to arrange the guard force for the palace.
Most of the royal family members have already gathered towards the Yangxin Hall where the old emperor is.
But Yan Wulu suddenly remembered that the palace of Princess Taiping Zhao Lingxin was still on the edge of the palace...
The incident happened suddenly, and Zhao Lingfeng actually forgot to send someone to notify Zhao Lingxin to take refuge.
Now, Jin Wang Zhao Lingcheng's internal agents have sneaked into the palace, and there is no guarantee that Princess Taiping will not be kidnapped by the other party.
Therefore, Yan Wulu decided to go in person to bring Zhao Lingxin to the Yangxin Hall.
After all, there is currently no one here who is more powerful and qualified to go than him.
In order to deal with King Jin's 30,000 troops, the prince was unable to divide his troops, so he entrusted full power to Yan Wulu.
Everything was fine originally.
But suddenly, at the exit of this remote alley, a tall figure in white stood in front of Yan Wulu.
It was the same Daqian palace bamboo hat, but the man in white in front of him wore it in a way that made it look unconventional and beautiful.
But Yan Wulu has a different feeling.
Even though she was wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat, she couldn't suppress her aura of superiority and arrogance.

"Yan Wulu, are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated?" The man in white suddenly said.
His words had a Western accent, which was originally a distinctive accent, but it sounded particularly harsh at the moment.
"Yi Junhan." Yan Wulu was not easily offended by the other party's trash talk. He was constantly growing.
In the early years, this kind of low-level trash talk might have made his heart waver slightly, but now, he has been able to turn a deaf ear to these things.
"...Yi Junhan, you didn't try to cooperate with Prince Jin, but you showed up here. Do you want to deal with me alone?"
"Oh?" Yi Junhan also approached and took out a golden mace in one hand, "...Is my plan so obvious?"
"certainly."
Yan Wulu chuckled lightly, raised the front edge of the hat slightly with one hand, and continued: "...Do you think I can't see that you are distracting the masters around me one by one?"
"...I guess you have been planning for a long time since Amaro said goodbye that day."
Yan Wulu continued: "I also heard that the Yi family envoy was also massacred tonight. I guess it was you who did it, right?"
"... Because they followed Yi Xiangtian, you killed them. In this chaotic time, with the help of King Jin, in order to avenge your own private revenge, you spared no one of the thousands of envoys.
"
"...It's true that he is worse than this evil prince like me."
The heavy rain continued to fall, like a broken water column.
Yi Junhan did not deny Yan Wulu's statement.
He didn't show any fear or cowardice.
He had long known that the person in front of him was an extremely cunning enemy who was very good at psychological tactics.
Yan Wulu, at this moment, acted like he had seen through his own plan, and kept mocking himself...
But perhaps, Yan Wulu was already frightened inside.
It's just that on the outside, he still manages to show himself to be calm and composed, with the pearl of wisdom in hand.
He has learned this many times.
Yi Junhan didn't say much. The chain link on the golden mace in his hand rotated slightly, making a crisp metallic sound.
This is his method of controlling beasts.
Yan Wulu also sensed something abnormal behind him with his consciousness. Looking back, he found that there was a fourth-level magical beast "Aoki Water Rhinoceros" blocking his retreat.
"Will you block my escape route first? It seems that you are very confident that you can defeat me."
"snort."
Yi Junhan snorted lightly, "Yan Wulu, I have always paid attention to your warrior strength."
"...On that day at the Jinling Poetry Meeting, I had roughly figured out your warrior realm. Now that I think about it, you are only a third-level Dzogchen warrior at best."
"... After practicing martial arts for a year, you have made rapid progress, but without the protection of the masters around you, you are no match for me!"
"...So, suffer death! Yan Wulu!"
Yi Junhan suddenly roared.
The anger in his heart that he had suppressed for months finally broke out at this moment.
He had never been oppressed for so long.
He has a personality that never suffers.
No matter who it was who hit him at that time, he would pay it back the next second!
Even the Yi family, who caused his father's failure and was exiled, he would take revenge and go back.
But only when facing the Prince of Zhenbei, Yi Junhan could only be defeated every time.
It really made him angry.
Yinren has been planning for so long, just to settle old and new scores tonight.
Kill this man and then rescue Bai Ze!
Yi Junhan's mind was set.
The golden mace in his hand was also injected with the spiritual energy of his animal trainer at this moment, and it instantly became radiant with golden light.
Yan Wulu just looked at each other calmly.
After not having a face-to-face encounter for so long, Yi Junhan's own fighting strength...
...almost no progress at all!
Yan Wulu sneered inwardly.
Yi Junhan was already coming quickly with his mace in hand.
The huge raindrops that were about to fall on the ground were now hit and broken by Yi Junhan.
The golden light on the golden mace became more and more magnificent.
Before the raindrops fall on them, they have already evaporated.
Almost instantly, Yi Junhan arrived in front of Yan Wulu and waved out his mace, almost invisible.
Yan Wulu, however, did not move where he was.
In Yi Junhan's eyes, it was just because his reaction was too slow and the rainy night hindered his [Sky Spiritual Root] consciousness.
Yi Junhan's eyes sparkled...
He seemed to be able to feel the pleasure of knocking Yan Wulu away with his mace!
!
The next moment...
Severe pain struck.
It was as if some slender and heavy object suddenly hit his waist.
And the place of impact turned out to be extremely coincidental, exactly where Zhu Gongqi pierced his waist, and where the black sword in the hand of the black-armored demon puppet pierced that day.
Yi Junhan only felt that the wound that had been healed by stitches seemed to be cracking open again.
This can also be regarded as the terrifying thing about Zhu Gongqi's [Xuanwu Thorn Shield], the wounds it creates are difficult to heal.
Yi Junhan was hit by the black-armored demon puppet again that day, almost killing him.
The severe pain rushed to the brain at the same time.
What followed was an inexplicable feeling of weightlessness.
When Yi Junhan reacted again, he had hit the stone wall of the palace alley once again.
The entire masonry of this stone wall was shattered at this moment, with concave cracks appearing like a spider web.
The severe pain of hitting the stone wall made Yi Junhan's brain suddenly wake up.
He still couldn't understand the moment just now...what exactly happened?
…
"Yi Junhan, uukanshu www.uukanshu.com, you are very similar to me before, very confident."
Yan Wulu looked at the spear in his hand.
Just now, I fired a random shot across the air, but the other party couldn't react.
For a moment, I didn't know if it was because my fifth-level warrior was too strong, or if my opponent's third-level beast tamer was too weak.
"...Confidence is originally a good thing. But sometimes, being overconfident can lead to unclear distinction between the strength of the enemy and ourselves."
"...then you will seek your own death."
Yan Wulu put the spear in his hand behind him and stepped forward slowly.
Yi Junhan realized later that Yan Wulu's strength was hidden, and he was probably far above him!
He did not dare to show any further neglect and quickly made a sound with the golden mace chain in his hand.
Beast tamers are not warriors.
Their real strength is not in close combat, but in driving monsters.
The Aoki Water Rhinoceros, which was originally used to block Yan Wulu's retreat, now suddenly sprinted towards Yan Wulu's direction.
An adult Aoki Water Rhinoceros is as huge as a small hill.
And in the rainy night, Aoki Shuixi's strength became even stronger.
I saw that blue-black rhinoceros, so fast and fierce that it smashed the stone walls on both sides of the alley to pieces with its huge body.
Unable to dodge left or right.
The Aoki Water Rhinoceros has always been famous for its infinite power, and a head-on confrontation is almost impossible.
Yi Junhan was staring at Yan Wulu's position at this moment. He was thinking that Yan Wulu could only use Qinggong to fly upward to avoid it.
So……
Yi Junhan still had some pain in his waist and abdomen, but he had no time to care about it at the moment.
He didn't even have time to stand up, and collapsed directly on the ground, trying to summon another tamed magical beast, Jin Biao, to attack Yan Wulu, who flew to avoid it after a while.
