The moment she saw the thick smoke, Xiao Lingyue's tense nerves suddenly snapped.
Beibei! Hanhan!
Both children were left in the main hall by her.
Xiao Lingyue suddenly flew away, without even having time to say hello, and ran towards the main hall.
It was her negligence.
They failed to discover in time that the number of assassins was wrong, and thought that the targets of the assassins were only Emperor Zhaoming and the Crown Prince, but ignored that they might have other targets.
It’s Hanhan!
He is the only son of Prince Yi and the most favored grandson of Emperor Zhaoming.
All civil and military officials were present at the late empress's birthday. As the emperor's eldest grandson, Hanhan could not possibly not be present.
The assassin tried his best to transfer Zhan Beihan, planned carefully, and dared to attack Emperor Zhaoming and the prince at the same time. How could he ignore Zhan Beihan's only son?
In terms of hatred, Zhan Beihan was definitely the first person Nan Yan wanted to get rid of. Only because he was too difficult to deal with, Nan Yan had to change his target.
If there is a chance to get rid of Zhan Beihan's only heir, those assassins will never show mercy!
Xiao Lingyue bit her lip so hard that it almost bled.
The annoyance and self-blame in my heart were like poison ivy, twisting hard, and my mind was in a mess.
How could she ignore such an obvious problem?
How could she safely leave her two children under the protection of the Imperial Guard? She should keep them with her at all times and never let them go no matter what.
The strong regret prompted Xiao Lingyue to run faster. In just two minutes, she ran to the square of the Buddhist temple.
It's like the scene is replaying itself.
The huge square was filled with thick smoke, and figures were running around and screaming.
The smell of blood is everywhere.
The imperial troops who stayed behind, the civil servants and generals in the court, and the families of the officials who were attracted by the fire were all in a mess.
Several assassins in black mingled with the crowd, waving their swords and harvesting lives mercilessly!
They didn't pick a target at all. No matter who they saw in front of them, whether it was the Imperial Guards, the courtiers, or those ignorant ladies and daughters, they just slashed at them with their swords, leaving a mess everywhere they went, and blood splattered everywhere.
On the ground.
"ah......"
"Help!"
"Come quickly, we're going to kill someone!"
The ladies screamed in horror, with tears streaming down their faces, and rolled and crawled to escape.
They also held their sons or daughters by hand.
Most of the civil servants in North Korea and China did not understand martial arts, and they were also trembling with fear. Some reacted quickly and hid in corners to protect their families, while others were separated from their families in the chaos, shouting their families' names desperately while running for their lives.
Such a chaotic situation made it convenient for the assassins to go on a killing spree. The cold light of the blade flashed, killing heads rolling like rivers, and blood flowing like rivers.
The Imperial Guards were no match for these assassins, and the situation of the others was even more tragic.
But there are exceptions.
For example, military generals in the DPRK and people from military general families.
Xiao Lingyue glanced hastily and saw the father and son of the Xiao family, generals Xiao Chenggang and Xiao Xuan, father and son, joining forces to fight against an assassin. Because they were participating in the taboo, they were not allowed to wear swords. The father and son were bare-handed, while the other was holding a long knife.
Fight against assassins and never fall behind.
Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Rulan, mother and daughter, were protected behind them. They were so frightened that their faces were filled with tears and they were trembling. They did not dare to move.
The frightened ladies and wealthy ladies nearby also ran over, hoping to gain protection from the Xiao family.
On the other side, people from the same family of generals and the Zhenbei Hou Mansion also faced off against the assassins.
Zhenbeihou and his subordinate generals stopped the assassin and shouted: "Yuan Qi, go and save people!"
"I know!"
The young Marquis Chu Yuanqi had a murderous look on his face, holding a sharp sword taken from the Forbidden Army in his hand. He quickly rushed across the battlefield, blocked an assassin's blade in time, and shouted to the civil servant who was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground: "
Go to the Forbidden Army, gather all the soldiers together, and protect the women! Hurry!" Popular 『』 This chapter has been completed!
