Invincible son

Chapter 1062 1063 [If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old] (end)
The sound of the huge explosion was like raging sea waves, and also like thunder in the depths of the sky. The deafening and continuous sound hit everyone's eardrums.

The graceful and luxurious carved beams and painted buildings in Nanxun Hall swayed and tilted, and the swarming dust almost covered the sky.

The collapse is imminent, and the crisis is more than that. The rubble spurred by explosives is more terrifying than the spears fired by the eight-ox crossbow.

At this moment, Chen Xizhi let go of the hand supporting Empress Chen, followed Emperor Kaiping who was being held by Li Zi and ran wildly, watching the two court guards who spared their lives to help the emperor block the falling giant tree, and looking at the man named Chen. An Diluan, the deputy commander of Yiwei, desperately resisted the collapsing wall.

A relieved and calm smile appeared on her face.

After Pei Yue left the capital to go to Nanzhou to meet his relatives, Mo Moyun began to contact her, and she had only one request from the beginning to the end, that is, to be present to witness this scene in person.

Mo Moyun's plan, Guliang's city mansion, Wang Pingzhang's ruthlessness, and Empress Chen's determination, only the cooperation of these four big men, either frankly or secretly, can complete the act of killing the king.Their stories may be passed down in history, but if she hadn't provided the crucial gunpowder technique, who would have let a king who held great power and was surrounded by loyal guards fall into such a deadly situation?

In the battle of Qishan Chong in the western region, she used gunpowder to blow up the entrance of the canyon, forcing Pei Yue and Zang Fengwei into a desperate situation. If Ye Qi hadn't arrived in time, the final outcome would have been unpredictable.

When she was locked up in the small courtyard of Ruixiang Square in the west of the city after being abolished, she told Ye Qi that Pei Yue could research briquettes, and she could also improve the gunpowder for making firecrackers with the help of craftsmen. , Let it become a more gorgeous and moving fireworks.

Just like today.

Scenes of the past flashed before my eyes like lightning.

Clan annihilation, bereavement, fleeing, hibernating, committing suicide, feigning death, going to death, this life is a life of ups and downs, the most stable and peaceful life is the two years of confinement by Pei Yue, Chen Xizhi doesn't know whether he should feel warmth or irony.

Looking back at this life, the sky and the earth have been covered by hatred, or have caused many killings directly or indirectly. I never thought that the one who could make me feel at ease would be Pei Yue, an undoubted enemy, let alone someone who could see through my heart. The person is also Pei Yue.

It's a pity that there are no ifs in life. From the day when Ning Rou'er died in his place, Chen Xizhi knew that he was crazy.

Even a madman would not want to live.

"boom!"

A broken beam hit her shoulder, and Chen Xizhi, who had long since lost his martial arts cultivation and became a normal person, groaned and fell forward to the ground.She resisted the pain of broken bones and raised her head. Her vision had begun to blur, but she was still staring straight ahead.

Until he saw countless gravels being shot at the emperor by explosives, even though Li Zi's martial arts cultivation was extremely advanced, he still couldn't block them all, and some of them hit the emperor's body.

She finally laughed with difficulty but maniacally, but she couldn't make any sound, and a large stream of blood overflowed from her mouth.

In a trance, a woman with a face very similar to hers and a gentle and charming temperament appeared in the void in front of her.

Tears kept pouring out of Chen Xizhi's eyes, and he silently shouted sadly and relieved: "Mother—"

The hall suddenly collapsed into ruins, and everything returned to dust.

……

At the moment when Nanxun Hall completely collapsed, Li Zi shot out holding Emperor Kaiping, followed by Chen An who was also seriously injured.

If it weren't for the life-saving protection of these two masters, and the desperate protection of those loyal guards, perhaps Emperor Kaiping would be buried together today as Empress Chen thought.

But even if he escaped, his condition still filled Li Zi with shame and resentment.

Counting from the time when Liu Zheng was still the prince, Li Zi has been determined to follow him for 28 years, and his official positions and titles have also risen all the way.Whether it was when he was in charge of the Kyoto garrison, he was ordered by Emperor Kaiping to create favorable conditions for Wang Pingzhang to bloodbath the Chen family's mansion, or when the four princes conspired to bring disaster to the capital, he took charge of the imperial army to protect the palace from worries, he never let the emperor down. Pass.

But today——

When the explosion hit, even though he reacted quickly in advance, he still couldn't completely protect Emperor Kaiping, so that a lot of gravel hit Emperor Kaiping's body, and two of them hit Emperor Kaiping's chest hard. forward.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty..." Li Zi's eyes filled with tears, his hands trembling.

Emperor Kaiping's face was pale and there was blood on the corner of his mouth. He was not in the mood and had no energy to reprimand Li Zi, but raised his finger with difficulty to point somewhere outside the hall.

Li Zi looked at the direction, and immediately understood, endured the pain all over his body, tried his best to walk steadily to the side of the imperial chariot, and walked up to Emperor Kaiping in his arms.

Surrounded by guards, the palace eunuch knelt on the ground tremblingly.

When Emperor Kaiping boarded the imperial chariot, the imperial physician who accompanied him followed him sweatingly.

Outside the flustered and tense crowd, a figure stood blankly beside the imperial road, his blank eyes staring straight at the Nanxun Temple shrouded in smoke and dust.

The second prince, Liu Yun, had no trace of blood on his face. After realizing that his mother, who loved his sixth brother more, might do something extreme, he rushed to the palace without stopping. Tingwei was sent to the East Mansion government office under the name of protection but actually for surveillance. He finally found an opportunity to rush over, but he could only watch his two most beloved people being exposed to the terrifying explosion.

A series of hurried footsteps sounded from behind, and the tear-stained Concubine Wu brought the harem concubines, Mo Haoli who was awakened just after lying down, important officials in the court, and more court guards and internal eunuchs all rushed over. The prince Liu Xian, who was seriously injured on the altar of offering sacrifices to heaven, also limped with the support of the two.

Gathered around the imperial chariot, but no one dared to speak first.

At this moment, Li Zi's voice sounded in everyone's ears: "Your Majesty ordered that the imperial concubine Wu, the crown prince Liu Xian, the left ruler Mo Haoli, the right ruler Luoting, and the left concubine Wu Cunren ascend the chariot."

Wu Guifei held Liu Xian's arm, Luo Ting supported Mo Haoli, and the four of them boarded the imperial chariot together.

As soon as they walked into the curtain, a strong bloody smell poured into everyone's noses, Wu Guifei's body softened immediately, and she almost fainted.

Liu Xian hurriedly supported her wrist, choked with sobs and said, "Mother, Imperial Father, nothing will happen to you!"

Mo Haoli looked at Emperor Kaiping who was lying down, and saw that his chest and ribs were wrapped with bloody gauze, and several experienced imperial physicians with excellent medical skills were doing their best.

Mo Haoli, who had experienced countless storms and waves, was crying at this moment, and tremblingly said: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Kaiping coughed twice in pain, raised his hand to signal the imperial physician to pause, and said with great difficulty: "Decree..."

Luo Ting immediately bowed and said, "Please make an order, Your Majesty."

Emperor Kaiping breathed hard, and said slowly: "The crown prince will supervise the country on my behalf, appointed Mo Haoli, who is in charge of the left, as the chief assistant minister, and appointed Luo Ting, Han Gongduan, Xiao Jin, Gu Liang, and Li Zi—"

Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, with complex emotions in his eyes, and when everyone held their breaths, Fang continued: "Pei Yue and the other six are all auxiliary ministers, and they will assist in state affairs."

Luo Ting said in a deep voice: "I obey the order!"

Wu Cunren next to him had already prepared the draft in a few moments, and he would be able to write an undisputed imperial edict later.

Emperor Kaiping said again: "Tell Pei Yue that I want to see Wang Pingzhang's head before I die."

As soon as these words were uttered, Concubine Wu Guifei burst into tears, but she didn't dare to cry loudly so as not to frighten the crowd outside the imperial chariot.She stepped forward and knelt beside Emperor Kaiping, holding his right hand, staring at Emperor Kaiping's face, although she was sobbing without saying a word, she already had the will to die in her eyes.

The others all had mournful faces and all knelt on the ground.

Emperor Kaiping looked at the tears on Wu Guifei's face and the resolute look in her eyes, and shook his head with difficulty.

Although there are old wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, although he no longer stands proudly between the sky and the earth as before, even though he suffered a life-threatening serious injury today.

But he still just tried his best to gently hold Concubine Wu's palm, and said softly, "Don't cry."
