The remnants

In the Xianyang Palace in Jiankang City, when the swords and swords were shining, the sound of silk and bamboo gradually faded, and the interlacing of glasses gradually stopped. A gray figure came quickly, and another dark figure immediately blocked it with a horizontal sword, and took two steps back to release the momentum of the incoming person. He bent down and thrust his sword straight into the opponent's waist.

The black figure was keenly aware of the other party's intentions and turned sideways to avoid it...

They went back and forth like this for more than a dozen times, with fierce moves and beautiful body movements, but neither of them could touch the other's body. Those who didn't understand martial arts would just feel dazzled, it was very exciting.

Real experts will find it a bit boring.

Although Emperor Zhou was not a master, he was obviously dissatisfied with the neither salty nor bland competition between the two, and his face was a little gloomy.

These two people are naturally the protagonists tonight, Tuobayu and Han Shidi.

Tuoba Yu, who was wearing a dark brocade robe and long robe, once again escaped Han Shidi's temptation and turned around to stand in the middle of the hall. Han Shidi also stopped immediately.

Tuoba Yu squinted his eyes and looked at Han Shidi opposite him for a moment, then said with a smile: "If Brother Han keeps holding on, His Majesty the Emperor of Zhou will be unhappy!"

"Your Highness seems to have something on his mind tonight. If you don't cheer up, you may be embarrassed!"

Han Shidi also responded calmly.

Feeling the changes in their auras, Zheng Wei knew that their mutual testing was over and the real show had begun.

Sure enough, the two of them stood up from the ground at the same time, stabbing each other's vital points with the swords in their hands. Han Shidi's moves were wide open and closed, with a calmness and sharpness that he had experienced in the battlefield. He was good at overpowering the opponent's momentum, and when it was even more terrifying, he stood up from the ground at the same time. His speed was not slow at all. At this time, he struck Tuoba Yu fiercely with his sword.

If he had been careless at all, one of his arms would have been cut off at shoulder level.

Tuoba Yu had already felt the sharp force of the knife, and he suddenly got goosebumps. He tried his best to dodge, but his clothes were still torn.

At this time, the female seat further away had already let out an exclamation, and Zheng Wei stretched her neck anxiously because she couldn't see clearly from the distance.

Looking down, Tuobayu saw a flash of light in his eyes. According to the plan, he should try his best to fight Han Shidi today, but due to his recovery from old injuries, his body was weak, and he eventually lost to him in order to gain access to Emperor Zhou and the courtiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. of contempt and neglect so that subsequent plans can proceed smoothly.

But at this time, Tuoba Yu felt Han Shidi's sharp sword energy and changed his mind!

He wanted to fight it with all his strength and truly experience the edge of the younger generation of Da Zhou!

Thinking of this, Tuoba Yu ignored the damaged clothes and changed his sword style, slashing, stabbing and stabbing directly at Han Shidi's vitals.

Han Shidi leaned back to avoid the sword, but Tuoba Yu showed an evil smile.

The masters in the palace all realized that Han Shidi was just dodging and his lower body was exposed, and they secretly felt bad.

Sure enough, Tuobayu flew up and kicked Han Shidi directly in the lower body, and Han Shidi also noticed the mistake. At this time, he had no time to avoid, so he could only lower his body, cross his hands in front of him, hold his breath and concentrate on taking Tuobayu's kick. With great strength, he couldn't help but take two steps back and shouted: "Okay!"

It seems like the two of them are getting into a better mood at this time.

After that, the two became more and more powerful, and gradually became angry, often suffering small losses at each other's hands. At this time, the two of them had abandoned their swords and switched to fists. It seemed that the feeling of punching to the flesh could satisfy them.

But the two of them were always evenly matched and couldn't decide the winner. Except for Zheng Wei who really liked watching games, the others were already showing signs of fatigue.

They came to see the three princes of the Wei Dynasty being defeated by the Zhou Dynasty again. It was difficult to satisfy them with such a close match!

At this time, a young eunuch hurriedly came in and whispered a few words into the ear of the leader, the eunuch Gao Han.

Gao Han's face changed slightly and he bent down deeply and whispered a few words to Emperor Zhou.

Emperor Zhou immediately darkened his face and said in a gloomy voice: "Let them stop."

Gao Han understood, but before he could say anything, Yue Qi, the armor-clad commander of the Imperial Guard on duty, entered the hall with a cautious expression and knelt down on one knee in the center of the hall.

Han Shidi was forced to stop, and everyone's eyes stopped on Yue Qi.

"Your Majesty, most of the remaining assassins of the Fu family have been put to death. Only the leader of the thieves escaped and fled into a nearby palace to prevent any unexpected events. Your Majesty, please take shelter for the time being!"

The remnants of the Fu family!

Everyone had different expressions, and when they looked at each other, they could see the shock in each other's hearts.

Tuoba Yu also had a twitch in his eyebrows. According to the plan, he would not start the assassination until he excused himself from feeling unwell and left the palace.

I don’t know why they didn’t act in advance as agreed. Although they didn’t expect them to kill Emperor Zhou, they didn’t expect them to be so vulnerable.

If Emperor Zhou used this matter to seal the palace gate, he would be trapped in the palace and unable to escape for a while, and his subsequent actions would be in trouble!

Tuoba Yu couldn't help but frown, and he was afraid that others would see the clues and fiddle with the damaged skirt of his clothes.

Zheng Wei glanced at the commotion in the hall, paused for a moment on Tuobayu, and began to think.

The Fu family should be from the lineage of the former Sikong Fu Lei, one of the four auxiliary ministers. Fu Lei was a founding hero who followed the late emperor and had numerous military exploits.

When the late emperor passed away, he originally appointed the former crown prince, the eldest brother of Emperor Zhou, to succeed him. However, the former crown prince was greedy for pleasure and did not care about political affairs. He was deposed by the four auxiliary ministers and replaced him with the current emperor of Zhou.

At the end of last year, Fu Lei's entire family was ransacked because of Fu Lei's self-respect and the intention to rebel. All the men over the age of five were beheaded, the women over the age of ten were sent to brothels or official prostitutes, and the girls under the age of ten were sold into slavery.

This was the biggest case since Emperor Zhou ascended the throne. It caused a sensation in the entire Kyoto, but no one dared to discuss it publicly and could only lament in private.

The other three auxiliary ministers, Grand Sima Xu Xuanzhi, pleaded to no avail and were imprisoned at home for three months. General Han Daoyuan was sent to guard Jiujiang, and General Xie Hui fled to Jingzhou. From then on, no one dared to comment on this matter.

It's just that more than half a year has passed since this incident, and no one has complained about the Fu family again. It is very strange that the remnant of the Fu family suddenly appears today.

Now that there are still people escaping from the palace, Zheng Wei can't help but feel a little worried. The palace is not a place to stay for a long time at this time, but it is impossible to leave immediately.

Sure enough, Emperor Zhou ordered the palace doors to be closed, no one was allowed in or out, and the imperial guards were sent to conduct a rigorous search, including all ministers and their families and servants.

After two hours of this, everyone was exhausted, and some elderly ladies had been placed in the side hall to rest.

Zheng Wei accompanied Mrs. Zheng in the side hall, while the eldest princess was left by the queen to help comfort the frightened family members.

Zheng Heng stayed in the front hall with his grandfather and father, and their family was separated.

Mrs. Zheng sighed softly. Zheng Wei held her arm and comforted her softly, "Grandma, the palace door should be opened soon. Please stay here and rest."

Mrs. Zheng looked at her granddaughter who was becoming more and more steady, and asked in a low voice: "What do you know, you little bastard?"

Zheng smiled and explained: "The Zhaoli palace banquet should have ended an hour ago. Each family has not received the master back, so he must have started asking around. Even if the person from each family today is not the head and mistress of the family, he still holds real power. Goodbye, everyone.

Without people, Kyoto might be in chaos!"
