Chapter 168: Cloud Piercing Crossbow
There were banging sounds at the door, and I had a terrible guess. Prince Yongping knew that Yun Hance's bottom line was me, so he sent so many assassins to kill me. Could the banging sounds at this time be that he had arranged an army to capture me?
If Marquis Dingyuan really surrenders to Prince Yongping, Prince Yongping will indeed be able to free up his hands to deal with me.
The one outside the gate who can lead troops, Marquis Dingyuan may have followed Prince Yongping to the palace to plot against Yun Hande, so the one outside the gate can only be Prince Zhenbei.
The sound of banging on the door had not stopped yet, and Yun Xing had already led everyone and was ready to fight.
I walked over calmly and said, "Open the door."
Yun Xing looked at me in confusion: "Why open the door at this time? Are you going to die?"
"King Zhenbei won't kill me."
Yun Xing said angrily, "I know he won't kill you, but what if he wants to catch you and use you to threaten the master? You have a pig brain."
I'm used to it. He can't say anything nice. "When the King of Zhenbei comes in, you guys should kill him with all your strength."
Yun Shan stood up and said, "The master has ordered that King Zhenbei be spared."
I stared at the crumbling door. "At this moment, there is no other way. They have thousands of people, and we only have dozens of people. If we don't kill him, we can only capture him alive. The military exploits of the King of Zhenbei were won by real swords and guns. His martial arts skills must be strong. It is basically impossible to capture him alive."
I don’t know if Yun Hance would be angry or sad when he knew that I gave the order to kill King Zhenbei, but at this moment, all the secret guards in the yard were injured, and I had a child in my belly. We had no ability to resist. If I fell into the hands of King Zhenbei, Yun Hance would be like a lamb to be slaughtered.
It doesn’t matter. Let him hate me if he wants to. I don’t want to be a burden to him, and I don’t want anything to happen to him.
The door was slowly opened, and the King of Zhenbei rode on a tall horse: "Come here, take Su Ran down."
I raised my hand: "Wait a minute, what is King Zhenbei in such a hurry for."
When I was young, I didn’t see the King of Zhenbei very often. At this moment, he looked as serious as ever.
"Don't you like Yun Hance? I'll take you to see him now."
I looked up at him: "If I agree to go with you to see A Ce, and he gives up resistance, can you let him go?" I have never understood how important A Ce is in his heart.
"Do you think that I can rest assured while he is alive? There is nothing he can't do if he wants to. I can only feel at ease if I kill him with my own hands." As he spoke, there was not much emotion in his eyes, and he was even very cold.
I nodded, watching him riding his horse high up and talking about Yun Hance like an outsider.
"He is your son. He is your child just like Yun Qingchi and Yun Jingyue." I tried to remind him that he should not be so cruel to A Ce. A Ce had clearly said that he would not kill him.
"I already have two children, Jingyue and Qingchi, so losing Yun Hance is not a big deal."
I thought there was something wrong with my ears, since he said that losing the child A Ce was not a big deal.
In this world, there really are fathers who don’t love their children.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, someone grab her and go find Yun Hance."
The deputy generals on his left and right immediately dismounted to grab me. They grabbed my clothes with one hand and stepped back. My uncle in white stood in front of me and asked, "Why are you so close to him?"
When I saw my little uncle, I felt more or less at ease.
"Nice to meet you, the famous King of Zhenbei." My uncle said casually, carrying a sword.
"Zhou Changjian, do you think you can protect her by yourself? I have thousands of troops behind me." King Zhenbei paused and said, "Get out of here if you know what's best for you."
My uncle crossed his arms and said, "King Zhenbei, you are heartless and ungrateful, so don't think of others like that. At this moment, it is my niece who is in danger. Even if I knew that I was going to die here today, I would protect her. You can really say that you would kill your own son with your own hands." My uncle has never been able to bear any loss, so he started to mock me.
The King of Zhenbei was indeed a little angry. With so many soldiers watching, although Yun Hance was the enemy, it was not nice to say that he killed his own son with his own hands. Moreover, Zhou Changjian was able to risk his life to protect his niece, but he wanted to kill his own son with his own hands.
His fingers tightly gripped the hilt of the sword, and the tip of the sword was pulled out little by little. He stretched out his arm and pointed the sword to the sky: "All troops, listen to my order. Capture Su Ran alive. Anyone else who resists will be killed without mercy."
"Yes." The neat voice echoed throughout the street.
"Go in and close the door." My uncle whispered in my ear.
"But you..." I was a little worried.
My uncle tapped my head and said, "I'll hold on for a while, Ah Ce will be here soon. You're just in the way here."
I nodded without hesitation and said, "Take care of yourself."
My uncle didn't answer me. He used his internal energy with the sword in his hand to cover me in a blue light wave. A spear stabbed at me, but a shield appeared out of thin air.
I didn't dare to think too much, I ran in desperately and asked someone to close the door.
Through the crack in the door, I saw the man in a white gown fluttering in the air. So many soldiers wanted to rush over but were blocked outside the door by him.
At this moment, I just hope that A Ce will come quickly. How long can my uncle hold on alone?
The sound of knives colliding outside was heard one after another, and I was very panicked.
"Father is still so shameless?" Yun Hance's voice?
I couldn't help but open the door and take a look at him, to see if he was okay and if he was hurt.
Yun Hance also looked at me sideways at this time. I couldn't help but run over and leaned tightly into his arms: "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
I didn't smell any blood, so I raised my hand and squeezed his arm: "I'm fine, Yuanyuan."
He looked down at me and I slowly took two steps back.
"What about you? Are you hurt?"
I shook my head. All the secret guards were protecting me. No one dared to let anything unexpected happen to me.
Yun Hance gently touched my face and said, "You must be very tired. It will be over soon."
I nodded: "Okay."
When Yun Hance came, I felt like I had found a backbone. I even suddenly felt very tired and hungry.
"Yunyin, send Yuanyuan back to rest."
I refused to leave and grabbed his sleeve: "I'm not tired, I want to stay with you."
Yun Hance didn't think much about it: "Okay."
He smiled at me tenderly and kissed my forehead gently. Then he turned around and looked at King Zhenbei, and his powerful aura came again: "King Zhenbei must be very curious about why I am here."
The King of Zhenbei cursed, "Marquis Dingyuan is really a waste. Since you are here, it is the same if I kill you myself."
Yun Hance was silent for a moment: "The King of Zhenbei is really arrogant. It's a pity that his reputation of being invincible in every battle is about to disappear."
King Zhenbei was not afraid of Yun Hance alone. No matter how powerful he was, two fists could not defeat four hands.
King Zhenbei stabbed at Yun Hance with a sword, and Yun Hance didn't plan to dodge. I was a little anxious, but suddenly there was a "ding ding" sound, and the sword in King Zhenbei's hand broke.
King Zhenbei looked over and saw that many men in black had been ambushed on the roof at some point, each holding a crossbow, and a crossbow could hold seven or eight small arrows.
Compared with the thousands of troops of the Zhenbei King, this small scene was obviously not up to par, but the Zhenbei King's expression unexpectedly became very solemn: "Is it... the Cloud Piercing Crossbow?"
