BXBX NOVEL Chapter 418: near misses
Sharp feathered arrows shot towards the hall densely like locusts.
Huo Yuan pushed down a heavy table and supported it on the ground to withstand the arrows.
Gu Changze hid behind tremblingly, pinched the old emperor\'s people tremblingly, and said in a crying voice: "Your Majesty, wake up quickly..."
The old emperor fainted just now, and woke up dizzy, and saw his third son trying to resist Liu Ya.
Huo Yuan stepped back to the side, tripped over something with his back heel, and almost fell to the ground.
He looked back, and it turned out that his fifth brother was trembling and hiding behind the table, and it was this fifth brother who he accidentally tripped over just now.
"Bastard!" The old emperor was full of frustration, cursed and kicked over.
The fifth prince was already crawling on the ground, but suddenly he was kicked by his father, and he fell to the ground in all directions, just like a tortoise lying on the ground with its shell turned over.
"嗖—"
Another arrow pierced the table, and a wave of heat spread rapidly.
Huo Yuan\'s face changed suddenly, the other party actually set fire to the arrow, it was because they were worried that they would not be able to shoot them to death, and they planned to burn them to death directly!
The old emperor was so angry when he saw a rocket rocket flying into the palace, his liver ached so badly.
Obstacles!
The fourth child is an idiot!
The old emperor cursed from the bottom of his heart.
Huo Yuan gradually became desperate. Now there is nothing in the hall that can effectively extinguish the fire. If arrows with flaming feathers keep shooting in, the whole palace will soon be engulfed in a sea of flames.
Staying in the hall will only lead to death!
But if they rushed out of the palace now, the outside would definitely be like locusts flying arrows, and thousands of troops were pressing outside, how could they escape?
It\'s not impossible to escape, the rebel army led by Commander Jia is fighting with the Fourth Prince\'s men, the scene is so chaotic, it may not be impossible to escape!
Huo Yuan turned around to support the old emperor, and said loudly: "Father, my son will protect you out of the palace!"
The old emperor met the resolute and lonely gaze of his third son. Countless complicated thoughts passed through his heart in an instant, and finally he nodded slowly to show his agreement.
"Third brother! Take me!" The fifth prince got up from the ground, but he was afraid of being shot by an arrow, so he bowed his body and hid behind Huo Yuan tremblingly.
Huo Yuan really looked down on Lao Wu, not to mention that this person wanted his life before, how could he be soft-hearted to Lao Wu?
Huo Yuan ignored the fifth child, just raised his knife and waved the flying arrows to open the way, protecting the old emperor and rushing out.
However, as soon as he reached the center of the room, the arrow stopped.
Huo Yuan stopped walking.
The old emperor also stopped.
This situation is too strange.
Gu Changze couldn\'t think of so much, and said happily: "The arrow has stopped! Your Majesty, we are safe!"
Huo Yuan and the old emperor looked at each other.
Not necessarily safe.
Maybe the fourth prince is preparing to use other cruel means to deal with them.
Huo Yuan raised his hand to signal the old emperor to stay where he is for the time being, and he himself walked to the door of the main hall step by step very cautiously, and looked out the situation through the crack of the door.
The dark area outside was full of soldiers, crowded with people, like a vast ocean—a sea of people and a sea of blood.
"Kill—"
The sound of charging and killing was loud and loud.
Another wave of soldiers came all the way from the direction of the palace gate—to be precise, several waves. The rushing flow of people was like a raging river, all rushing towards the White Lotus Palace at once.
On the tall horse, the majestic general in sharp armor cut off the head of the person standing in front of him with a single knife—that general was the prime minister Pei Shu. Although he is over half a hundred years old, it is obvious that the sword is not old. Just a look in the eyes may scare a wave of rebels.
Huo Yuan\'s expression brightened slightly and then dimmed. He was not happy to be rescued. The Pei family\'s reinforcements came too timely, so timely that it makes people... feel chills in the bottom of their hearts.
But the next moment, his gaze swept to a person charging towards the crowd on horseback.
Huo Yuan\'s expression was shocked, and the joy on his face could not be concealed at all.
The man was wearing a strong and sharp sword, and the long knife in his hand seemed to be assisted by a god. He was so powerful all the way that he killed the surrounding rebels to take the initiative to retreat.
Huo Yuan\'s joy almost burst through his chest. When the man rushed to the door, he immediately opened the door of the temple, and said happily: "Seven kills!"
"Your Highness!" Qi Sha said solemnly.
The two met again in this chaotic army, and their moods were complicated.
Huo Yuan led Qi Sha to the inside, and calmly said: "Father is inside."
The duty of Qisha this time is to protect the old emperor and his party to leave the White Lotus Palace safely.
After some fighting, the group of them arrived at the Hall of Qinzheng without any danger.
The old emperor sat on the dragon chair, his expression a little decayed, his eyes seemed to be empty, and he didn\'t know what he was thinking in his heart.
The Fifth Prince huddled beside the pillar, almost shrinking into a ball, shaking like he was sifting chaff.
Huo Yuan was injured and sat on a chair with a weary expression. At this point in time, it\'s not good and it\'s impossible to find the imperial doctor to show him.
Qisha silently glanced at the royal family in the hall, and suddenly had a strange idea in his heart: If he can become a royal family at this level, who else in the world can\'t become a royal family?
After a while, the temple door was pushed open from the outside.
The old emperor looked at Pei Shu who walked in with a **** smell, his eyes were in a daze for a moment, and he didn\'t know what memories it brought up.
Pei Shu stood still three steps away from the old emperor, clasped his fists in salute, and said, "Your Majesty was frightened when the **** arrived late!"
The old emperor wanted to stand up and help Pei Shu, but now his whole body was like lead, so he could only sit on the dragon chair and said: "Pei Aiqing, excuse me!"
Pei Shu bowed his head and reported: "All the rebels have been captured, Commander Jia committed suicide, and the fourth prince... ran away."
The old emperor\'s eyebrows were full of coldness, and he said with a murderous intent: "If you take down the fourth prince, you don\'t have to live!"
When the fifth prince heard this, his body trembled even more, even his teeth chattered.
Pei Shu took orders cleanly. What he said just now was just to test the emperor\'s attitude. How could a fool like the Fourth Prince escape?
Pei Shu glanced at the fifth prince who was huddled on the ground with disgust, thinking that the Huo family\'s generation of princes is so incompetent, that they might be coming to an end.
After the chaos, the disposition of the disposition, the reward of the reward.
The entire capital of Kyoto was shrouded in an atmosphere of terror. Every household closed their doors tightly, and no one even spoke loudly.
Even the most noble prince\'s mansions in Kyoto can be washed away by the bloodbath, so how can ordinary people not panic?
Not only ordinary people, but even nobles are now in danger.
