Chapter 806 The decisive battle at Luoyang Palace! (6)
Boring trick!
Although the melee was going on fiercely in front of him, Li Xian remained completely unmoved and did not even take a look. As for where Cheng Wuting was who was in such a mess, Li Xian also did not pay attention to it.
He just stood there quietly, seemingly relaxed, but in fact the strings in his heart were tightened, for no other reason than because Li Xian knew very well that the assassination scene in front of him was by no means a real drama, it was just smoke.
It's just a bomb, the real killer is still hiding in the dark, Li Xian doesn't want to fall at the moment when victory is about to come!
The war is still going on fiercely. Although Qixia Guanren and others have been completely suppressed, these bulls are very ruthless and their fighting style is extremely fierce. They do not hesitate to exchange injuries for injuries and charge forward desperately, trying to break through Luo.
After being intercepted by Tong and others, several people from both sides fell down after several encounters, but the battle situation remained stalemate.
The bloody courage is commendable, but it will never last. Especially after Cheng Wuting's troops finally suppressed the riot, they were faced with the desperate situation of being completely surrounded by troops led by Cheng Bu and Donggong Guards. The fighting spirit of the Qixia Temple Taoist priests
As it gradually subsided, the fear in his heart also increased. The battle situation, which was already at a disadvantage, completely tilted towards the side of "Mingdi" in an instant. As the casualties of the Qixia audience became heavier, this trend became more and more serious.
The discovery became apparent.
Kill, still kill! A group of "Mingdi" masters don't care what the Qixia people and others think, and they will show no mercy. After a stick of incense, Qixia Guanren and others are still fighting desperately, including Gar, who is covered in blood?
There were only four people left inside, but looking at the "Ming Dy" side, there were still eight people who could fight, especially the three top masters Luo Tong, Li Yaodong, and Ye Sheng, all of whom were intact. At this point in the battle,
, the destruction of Qixia Guanren and others was a foregone conclusion, and the tensed nerves of the courtiers watching the battle relaxed. The voices of discussion gradually became louder, and it was obvious that they had enough time to comment on the situation of the battle.
"Li Xian, you don't have to die well, I'm a ghost..., ah..."
Although Gar Yin Gong's martial arts skills are quite good, even better than the masters of Qixia Temple, he is not from the martial arts world after all. He is used to fighting in battle formations. When he encountered such chaotic scenes of martial arts, he
It was extremely difficult to cope with it, and there were many injuries on the body. It was only relying on the extraordinary physical strength that I could barely hold on until now. However, as the Taoist priests in the Qixia audience fell one after another, and were greeted by Luo Tong,
It was no longer difficult for Gar to draw the bow, but the unwillingness in his heart became stronger. He cursed with all his strength. Unfortunately, before he could finish the curse, Luo Tong slashed him in the lower abdomen.
, under the pain, he could no longer stand, let out a scream, and knelt heavily on the ground.
"Die!"
Luo Tong would not show mercy to such ambitious people like Gar Ying Gong, no matter how serious his injuries were. With a wave of his hand, a sword flashed past, and Gar Ying Gong's huge head rolled towards him.
It fell to the ground, but before Gar Yin Gong's life was about to disappear, a smile of relief appeared on the corner of his mouth. It was for no other reason than that he had seen a sharp sword light suddenly shine on the left side of the battlefield.
It rose up at an extremely fast speed. There was no doubt that it was the Qingxu Taoist hidden in the dark who took action!
"Buzz..."
The Grandmaster's blow is no small matter. Even though Qingxu is half disabled, he is the best in the world in swordsmanship. This sword move is really like a god descending to earth. When the sword is drawn, the human being is still human.
He was more than twenty feet away from Li Xian, but with just a flash of sword light, the two men and swords merged to kill him only a few feet away from Li Xian. The extremely fierce sword light shook out a burst of roar like a dragon.
A sound like the sound of swords.
Is it finally here? Then let’s fight!
The reason why Li Xian was unwilling to attack Lishuixuan was because he had two concerns. First, he was afraid that Qixia Guanren and others would take advantage of the geographical advantage and cause unnecessary casualties to his soldiers. Secondly, he was worried that Qingxu Lao Dao would take advantage of the chaos and escape.
, probably because the martial arts of Qingxu Lao Tao is too strong, although there are many masters here, except for Li Xian himself, no one can block his edge. Once this old thief escapes from the dead, there will be no trouble in the future.
Not to mention anything else, just carrying out assassinations in the dark is enough to throw the Tang Dynasty into chaos. Without more, just killing some courtiers is enough to give Li Xian a headache. If he has a chance,
Li Xian was so happy to eradicate them in one fell swoop. Even if he had to take some risks, it was worth it. Now, Qingxu Lao Dao finally appeared. Li Xian did not dare to ignore it. As soon as he stepped on it, the man flew out.
, when passing by an East Palace guard, he took out the horizontal knife that was inserted diagonally at the waist of the East Palace guard with a flick of his hand. With just a shake, a chain-like sword light was already violent.
Flash out.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh..."
Qingxu Lao Dao disguised himself as an old eunuch. He took advantage of the chaos and ran to the left side of the battlefield. He pretended to be frightened and lay down on the ground tremblingly. He easily deceived the person in charge of guarding the battlefield.
The guards of the East Palace also eluded the pursuing officers and soldiers of Cheng Wuting. Even Li Xian failed to discover that Old Dao Qingxu had taken advantage of the chaos to lurk not far from him. In the eyes of Old Dao Qingxu, the situation of the war was already decided.
At that time, Li Xian's mind should be the most relaxed. At this time, the probability of success should be extremely high. Because of this, Qingxu Lao Dao launched a surprise attack, but he never expected that Li Xian's reaction would be
With such speed, when Li Xian and his men and swords came together to attack him, Old Taoist Qingxu was shocked and had no chance of changing his moves. He could only bite the bullet and choose to fight Li Xian to the end. The exchange only lasted a moment.
There were countless hits between the two sides. Sparks flew out, and the clanging sound was as loud as exploding beans.
"How did you tell?"
The two figures were circling and intersecting in the air like dragons, moving at the speed of the wind, making it difficult to see the process. The swords and swords flashed together, making it extremely dazzling. In the blink of an eye, a hundred or ten moves were passed.
Following two muffled groans, the two figures separated from each other, flew away from each other, and landed on the ground almost at the same time. They were five feet apart from each other. After silently confronting each other for a while, Old Taoist Qingxu suddenly laughed.
He stood up and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Guess!"
Li Xian also smiled, spread his hands calmly, and answered concisely.
"Guess? Haha, what a guess! I have been in the world for decades, but I have only lost two times. I fell into the hands of His Highness, and my fate is also time, haha..."
Old Taoist Qingxu smiled bitterly and shook his head, uttering a sigh of relief, then raised his head and laughed wildly. He only laughed halfway, shook his body, and fell heavily to the ground. A fountain of blood suddenly exploded in his chest.
, spraying wildly into the air, and the man made no sound before he hit the ground. It was obvious that he had been fatally wounded in the battle just now.
"Ahem..."
As soon as Old Master Qingxu fell down, Li Xian obviously couldn't hold himself any longer. He bent his waist slightly, coughed several times, and a line of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth. It was clear that he had also suffered serious internal injuries.
"Your Highness!"
"Protect Your Highness!"
…
While the two masters were fighting, Luo Tong and others also killed the three remaining Qixiaguan Taoist priests on the spot. When they saw Li Xian vomiting blood, they all panicked and flew towards them with roars.
They came over and guarded Li Xian in the center.
"I'm fine!"
Li Xian stretched out his hand to wipe the blood line at the corner of his mouth, casually dropped the horizontal knife on the ground, took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the boiling blood, shook his head, said in a calm tone, and then stood in the back row.
He stepped out from the crowd and walked slowly towards the stunned ministers.
"I'm going to pay homage to Your Highness!"
Most of the ministers had heard that Li Xian was extremely skilled in martial arts, but few of them had actually seen Li Xian in action. They were so surprised to see the intensity and excitement of the previous battle that they were all awe-struck, when they saw Li Xianxing coming.
, they all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Li Xian, and they all bowed to pay homage in a very polite manner.
"My dear friends, please excuse me. Although the overall situation has been roughly decided, the remains of the late emperor should not be disturbed too much. Please invite the five prime ministers and assistants to accompany me to the pavilion. The rest of the people will wait here.
."
Although the war is basically a foregone conclusion, the matter is not over yet. Not only does the mystery of Gaozong's life and death need to be solved, but there is also a headache, which is how to deal with Empress Wu, the culprit.
My six internal organs were all tight and uncomfortable due to the shock, but I still couldn't rest. I could only hold on and give an order.
"I respectfully obey His Highness's orders!"
In the current situation, let alone Gaozong's death, even if he is not dead, no one can stop Li Xian's ascension to the throne. No matter how many doubts Pei Xingjian and others have in their hearts, they absolutely dare not show them at this time. They can only
Everyone bowed and promised.
"My lords, prime ministers and assistants, please stop!"
Seeing that all the ministers had obeyed, Li Xian was too lazy to say anything more. After saying something casually, he turned around and walked towards Lishuixuan. When Pei Xingjian and others saw this, they did not dare to neglect and followed step by step.
Behind Li Xian...
Although Lishui Pavilion is not big, it does have main halls, side halls and dozens of side rooms. It could originally accommodate more than two hundred people living in it. However, in the previous battle, most of the eunuchs and maidens had fled.
After exiting, the Lishui Pavilion was already silent. Under the protection of Li Yaodong and other master guards, Li Xian and his party had an unobstructed journey. After a while, they arrived at the main bedroom. When they saw it, they saw a neat court dress.
Empress Wu was sitting on the edge of the couch, while Gaozong was lying on the couch with no idea whether he was alive or dead. Everyone in the group paused in their footsteps, and for a moment they didn't know whether they should come forward to greet her or not.
"My son has met his mother!"
The five prime ministers were at a loss and didn't know what to say, but Li Xian was very calm, and he was still respectful in his etiquette, just like usual, which immediately made all the prime ministers feel a little confused...
