Hearing the sound of footsteps, Yelu Sage raised his eyebrows and smiled: "My people will be here soon, and there is no point in continuing to fight."

Nan Xing slapped Yelu Sage with a palm, forcing her away two or three steps, and said coldly: "That's not necessarily the case!"

As soon as Nan Xing finished speaking, there was a series of screams outside.

Yelu Sage's face changed, but Nan Xing didn't give her a chance to react, and took advantage of this opportunity to attack Yelu Sage's throat with his fingers. He escaped the fatal blow to his head, but was left with three deep scratches on the side of his neck by Nan Xing.

Nan Xing's claws are naturally different from the strength of ordinary women's fights. If Yelu Sage hadn't been lucky enough to avoid the neck artery, he might have died of bleeding. Stained red with the blood running down his neck.

But within this short period of time, the screams of footsteps outside stopped, and there was no movement at all. Yelusage took a few steps back, clutching the wound on his neck, feeling cold from the bottom of his heart.

Nan Xing didn't intend to chase after the victory, she just stood there, separating Yelu Sage from Ren Yaoqi and Concubine Yun, staring at Yelu Sage without any emotion.

Yelusage didn't dare to fight anymore, the wound on her neck was deep, and reckless use of force would only speed up the blood flow, and there seemed to be changes outside, even if she could beat the woman in front of her, it might not be possible. Can escape the woman's ambush outside the helper.

With his excellent hearing, Yelu Sage has already judged that the dozen or so guards who followed Xiao Jingyue are probably in danger at the moment, and they have dealt with more than a dozen strong guards in such a short period of time, which shows that the number of enemies is definitely more than one. Two, but she couldn't hear any strange smell, which meant that the helpers who suddenly appeared on the other side had better martial arts than her.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside, and someone walked in.

Everyone in the room turned their heads to look over, Ren Yaoqi also stared at the door, and then saw Xiao Shun Welding Huan walk in.

Ren Yaoqi lowered her eyes to hide the disappointment in her eyes.

Xiao Shun bowed to Ren Yaoqi and Concubine Yun, and then said: "I advise the princess not to act rashly. Although I may not be able to beat you alone, but believe it or not, you can raise your hand half an inch , the throat will be pierced?"

Yelusage's raised hand froze, and then opened his palm with a wry smile. A cup of diamond-shaped hidden weapon fell to the ground with her movements.

Xiao Shun smiled slightly: "The princess is so knowledgeable about current affairs, it is really a happy thing for everyone."

Yelusage knew that it would be unwise to resist at this time, so she obediently let Nanxing subdue her.

Only then did Xiao Shun come forward and salute again: "The subordinate came down late, which surprised the empress dowager and the young madam."

Ren Yaoqi can still smile at Xiao Shun peacefully at this moment: "Thank you, Mr. Xiao, you came in time."

Tong Xi and Tong He also rushed in at this time, seeing that Ren Yaoqi and Concubine Yun were fine, they finally breathed a sigh of relief and helped clean up the mess in the house.

Ren Yaoqi saw that Xiao Jingyue and Yelv Sage were both tied up, so she asked Xiao Shun, "How's the situation outside?"

Xiao Shun slightly lowered his head and replied: "Xiao Jingyue's people surrounded the palace. Although we have few people, they can't rely on the Zhaoning Palace. Now that Xiao Jingyue is seriously injured, those people who surrounded the palace have lost their backbone, so they are not enough to be afraid of. .”

Ren Yaoqi did not relax her brows after hearing these, she asked: "Then what are we afraid of now?"

Xiao Shun glanced at Ren Yaoqi unexpectedly. After hesitating for a while, he said: "Xiao Heng still has five hundred troops in his hands, and he is probably fighting with the guards of the gate of Yunyang City at this moment."

Concubine Yun took a deep breath.

Ren Yaoqi was not surprised when he heard the words. Since the father and son Xiao Heng and Xiao Jingyue rebelled against the Yanbei Palace, they would naturally start a battle. One besieged the mansion and the other besieged the city. They were sure that there was no one in the Yanbei Palace at the moment. .

At this moment. Suddenly there was movement outside Zhaoning Hall, as if many people were coming here.

Nan Xing flashed out of the palace, and then came back soon, reporting: "Young Madam, it is Xiao Jingyue's people who found something wrong and surrounded them."

Xiao Shun said: "It's just a mob, I'll take people to drive them away."

Ren Yaoqi heard the words and couldn't help asking: "How many of us are there in Zhaoning Palace?"

Xiao Shun replied with a smile: "There are only twenty-six people. But please rest assured, Young Madam, these twenty-six people are the Eighteen Guards of Yanyun, each of them can defeat a hundred with one."

Ren Yaoqi was startled when she heard the words: "Yanyun Eighteen Guards?"

She had heard of the Eighteen Guards of Yanyun, but she always thought that it only existed in the mouths of the storytellers in the teahouse. According to legend, the Eighteen Guards of Yanyun was the most mysterious guard in Yanbei Palace. It has existed since the first Yanbei King was in office, they come and go without a trace, each of them is proficient in eighteen kinds of martial arts, and has the strength of one against ten.

After Xiao Shun saluted, he withdrew.

Nan Xing still stayed in the hall to guard Ren Yaoqi, seeing Ren Yaoqi's thoughtful look, he took the initiative to explain his confusion: "Although the rumors are not to be believed, the Eighteen Guards of Yanyun are indeed the most powerful in the world. There is no doubt about the guards. Although they are called the Eighteen Guards of Yanyun, there are not only eighteen guards, but a total of forty. The young master took fourteen with him when he left, and the remaining twenty-six were left behind. Come down to protect you, Young Madam. You can rest assured, Young Madam, with them here, no one will be able to enter Zhaoning Hall."

Ren Yaoqi was stunned, Xiao Jingxi left most of the powerful bodyguards to protect her, so on his side...

Nan Xing was not a talkative person, seeing that Ren Yaoqi had stopped talking, she also stood aside and stopped talking.

There seemed to be fighting sounds coming from outside, but Ren Yaoqi didn't care at this moment, she believed that the people Xiao Jingxi stayed behind were enough to guarantee the safety of her and the child.

After about a quarter of an hour, Xiao Shun came back again, lowered his head and reported: "Young Madam, Xiao Jingyue's people have been forced to retreat. We are waiting for Mu Hu's people here."

Ren Yaoqi nodded and said nothing.

Not long after, someone shouted outside Zhaoning Hall that Xiao Heng had come and wanted to discuss something with Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi sat there without moving.

Concubine Yun frowned and said, "What else does this bastard want to do?"

Ren Yaoqi took a look at Xiao Jingyue, who was lying on the ground bloody and unconscious, and smiled, "Just listen to him and you'll know what he wants to do."

Not long after, Xiao Heng's voice sounded outside the hall.

"Nephew, Second Uncle has something to say to you."

No one in the room made a sound.

Xiao Heng continued: "You are the granddaughter of King Hezhong. No matter what the grievances between Second Uncle and Yanbei Palace are, Second Uncle will never dare to hurt you, so you can stay out of this matter. Now Xiao Jingxi is dead. Now, if you want, how about second uncle sending you back after a while, or sending you to the King of the River?"

Still no one spoke.

"Nephew, can you let Xiao Jingyue come out for me to meet? No matter what stupid things he said or did, I, the father, will apologize to you on his behalf, and please don't be as stupid as this bastard."

Xiao Heng waited for a while, but there was still no news from the Zhaoning Palace, and no one responded to his words. He couldn't help but frowned, and inevitably began to worry about his only son.

I don't know how long I waited this time, before Xiao Heng said: "My nephew, you may not want to listen to the words of the second uncle, but you are always willing to listen to the words of the old concubine, right?"

Everyone in the room couldn't help but froze when they heard the words.

Then I heard a sharp voice from outside: "Xiao Heng, what do you want to do! What are you bringing me here for!" It was the voice of the old concubine.

Xiao Heng seemed to whisper a few words to the old concubine, but the old concubine scolded mercilessly: "Before you suddenly surrounded my Shou'an Palace, and now you put me in disregard of my wishes. What do you want to do here?"

Xiao Heng laughed when he heard the words: "Mother, Yue'er is still in Zhaoning Palace, can you ask your nephew and daughter-in-law to let her out?"

"Xiao Jingyue is in Zhaoning Palace, why did you bring me here!" the old concubine said dissatisfied.

Xiao Heng ignored her, and just said loudly to Zhaoyang Hall: "Nephew and daughter-in-law, everyone says you are a filial person, so you don't want to see the old concubine, do you? You let Yue'er out, and I will How about letting the old concubine go in and rest?"

Only then did the old concubine understand that Xiao Heng wanted to exchange herself for Xiao Jingyue, she couldn't help but angrily said: "You bastard..."

It's a pity that she stopped before she finished speaking, because a guard behind Xiao Heng stepped forward and held her neck with a knife.

Xiao Heng could not look at the old concubine, but said: "Nephew and daughter-in-law, if you don't care about the life of the old concubine, is it unreasonable? As long as you send Yue Er back, how about I not pursue today's matter?"

Ren Yaoqi was amused by his brazenness, but she still didn't make a sound, just listening to him singing a one-man show outside.

Concubine Yun suddenly said: "Let me come forward, you don't make a sound here."

Ren Yaoqi looked at Concubine Yun, and Concubine Yun smiled: "He threatened you with the old concubine. If you refuse to save her, you will inevitably be criticized by others in the future, but there is a person in this world who treats her as if she refuses to save others. I think it should be taken for granted, that person is me. Just a joke, everyone knows that I am incompatible with that woman surnamed Li, and a blind person would think that I want to save her."

Speaking of which, Concubine Yun patted Ren Yaoqi's hand, and then raised her voice to the outside: "This scoundrel Xiao Jingyue dared to attack an elder like me just now, he has been tied up by my order, and I will deal with it later .As for the person you brought, you should take it back, I don't want to see her."

Xiao Heng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The concubine? My nephew and daughter-in-law..."

Concubine Yun said coldly: "How dare you mention it! She has fainted from your actions! If anything happens to her, I can't spare you!"

Ren Yaoqi fainted from fright: "..." RP
