Poor Family Laity

Chapter 431, Death of the Fourth Prince

The eldest prince had long guessed that the fourth prince would take action. Although the fact that the Gyeonggi camp surrendered to the fourth prince was somewhat unexpected, he was not in a hurry.

 No one else, because he had already gathered the imperial guards and the five-city army and horse division.

Therefore, after hearing the eldest prince say "enter the city", the soldiers from the five-city army and horse division who had been ambushing around the city gate swarmed out and attacked the soldiers from the Gyeonggi camp.

 The person at the forefront was Shi Zhenghe.

The eldest prince glanced at Shi Fuxin and saw that she was not worried. He couldn't help but asked: "Everyone in your family is excellent in martial arts. Is there any reason why outsiders don't know about it?"

Shi Fuxin looked at the eldest prince: "How much achievement a person can achieve has a lot to do with external stimulation. People are indolent, and only a strong enough desire can support a person to temper himself despite hardships. "

“It’s not that everyone in my family is a martial arts prodigy, it’s because my family desperately wants to change their lives.”

“When we were in the northwest, apart from the difficult external conditions, my father and brother also became frontier soldiers, wandering on the edge of life and death every day, and the Li family always treated our family like cattle and horses.”

“In such a situation of internal and external distress, our family cannot do anything but rise up.”

“Our living standards have improved since we arrived in the capital, but at the beginning, Shi’s family did not fully accept us.”

“If our family wants to integrate into the Shi family and gain a firm foothold in the Shi family, we must come up with something.”

“We who come from the border have nothing but martial arts, but there is no shortage of masters in the capital. If we want to stand out, we can only become the master among masters.”

Shi Fuxin saw that the soldiers from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division had forced the soldiers from the Gyeonggi Camp away from the city gate, and looked at the eldest prince with a smile: "When a person is under too much external pressure, he can explode into unimaginable things. potential, you should have a deep understanding of this."

The eldest prince could hear that everything Shi Fuxin said was true, but this was not the answer he wanted.

At this time, the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division had already occupied the city gate.

Looking at the soldiers from the Gyeonggi camp retreating into the city, the eldest prince stopped questioning Shi Fuxin: "There are only so few people left at the city gate. It seems that the fourth son has called most of the troops to guard the palace."

He said with a solemn look on his face, "I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to take back the palace from the fourth child."

Shi Fuxin glanced at him and said with a smile: "Isn't there a teacher here? The teacher will always support you."

The eldest prince looked moved: "Now that all the officials are looking at me, I can't show my timidity. There must be other ambushes from the fourth son in the city, so I will ask Master to accompany me into the city."

 Shi Fuxin made it clear again: "If you have a good teacher, I will definitely protect you."

The eldest prince glanced at the people accompanying him. After they entered the city gate first, he said to Shi Fuxin: "Then let's enter the city now. We can't let the fourth child wait in the palace for too long."

 “Okay, I will protect you as a teacher.”

Shi Fuxin felt unhappy that the eldest prince ignored her address intentionally or unintentionally. If he didn't mention it, she would continue to emphasize her identity as master in every conversation.

In the eldest prince's original plan, he did not want to enter the city too early. There must be people from the fourth prince waiting to ambush him in the city. Entering the city at this time is undoubtedly dangerous.

However, he really wanted to know how strong Shi Fuxin was!

He broke into the Beiyan Palace and killed two top masters. Even though Shi Fuxin was his master, he was still a little afraid.

In addition, he also wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone know his bravery and his fearlessness of danger.

As long as he arrives at the palace safely during Lao Si's ambush and successfully pulls Lao Si down, he believes that no one will dare to despise him after he succeeds to the throne.

The eldest prince glanced at the Master of the Yang Palace of the Liangyi Palace who was standing behind him, and then glanced at the two top masters, Beidao and Xizhang, who were hidden in the crowd. He sighed secretly in his heart and then stepped into the city gate.

 Shi Fuxin saw all the little moves of the eldest prince, she said "haha" twice in her heart, and followed with an expressionless face.

Hundreds of elite soldiers formed a large circle, surrounding the eldest prince in the middle. Nineteenth-level masters formed a small circle, following closely around the eldest prince.

 Finally, the eldest prince was followed by several people, and Shi Fuxin was one of them.

 With such strict protection, the eldest prince entered the city. Sure enough, as soon as the eldest prince stepped onto the street, "swish, swish, swish", countless sharp arrows were shot from all directions.

 Some of the sharp arrows were specially designed to deal with the guards, and some of the sharp arrows were aimed directly at the eldest prince.

　　Shi Fuxin stood in front of the eldest prince, waving the folding fan quickly in her hand. Sharp arrows shot through the air and were counterattacked by the powerful invisible force. They turned around and were reflected back.

 “Bang bang bang~”

The eldest prince and his party gradually moved deeper into the city. The guards fell one by one. At the same time, the number of assassins hidden around them was also rapidly decreasing.

In the outer city, they were shot with bows and arrows. After entering the inner city, the fourth prince directly sent thousands of soldiers to rush towards the eldest prince.

 The sword flashed, and blood flowed like a river.

Because a warrior broke through the encirclement and approached the eldest prince, Shi Fuxin grabbed the eldest prince's wrist with one hand and pulled him away from the killing move, while dealing with the incoming killer with all his strength.

Every time a sharp blade was about to stab the eldest prince, regardless of whether Shi Fuxin was fighting or not, she could pull the eldest prince out of danger in time.

This left the three of them, Master Yang of the Samsara Palace, Beidao, and Xi Zhang, with no chance to rescue the eldest prince.

Although he was surrounded by swords and swords, looking at Shi Fuxin who was standing in front of him and always holding him tightly, the eldest prince actually felt that there was not much danger.

  “咻~”

A long knife with a cold light came at her. Shi Fuxin waved the folding fan in her hand, and with a backhand, the long knife reflected back and rushed towards the incoming soldier. Within a moment, the soldier's calf was cut by the long knife, and a large piece fell directly.

 “It’s too slow to fight one by one!”

Shi Fuxin’s subsequent attacks always knocked down a large area with one shot.

 The eldest prince looked at Shi Fuxin's invincible battle, feeling shocked and happy at the same time.

 Fortunately, this person has become his master, so he is naturally in the same boat with him. If she were from another force, he would not have much chance of winning.

Due to Shi Fuxin's full firepower, the time for the eldest prince to travel through the inner city was greatly shortened. He entered the imperial city before dark and went straight to the palace gate.

On the palace wall, the fourth prince looked gloomily at the eldest prince who had rushed in front of him so quickly. Without saying anything, he directly ordered to be shot.

“Master, open the palace door. There are guards in the palace to meet you.”

Shi Fuxin glanced at the eldest prince who took the initiative to call Master, waved the folding fan in his hand, and with a bang, the palace door was forcefully opened.

As soon as the palace door opened, no one outside the palace had moved, and the shouts of killing began one after another in the palace.

 This is the attack by the imperial guards in the palace.

The soldiers from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division who had supported the eldest prince all the way immediately rushed into the palace and joined the Imperial Guards in clearing out the soldiers from the Gyeonggi camp.

The fourth prince stood on the palace wall, looking at the mutual cooperation between the Imperial Guards and the soldiers from the Five Cities Army and Horses Division, beating the soldiers of the Gyeonggi Camp back steadily. Emotions such as unwillingness and resignation appeared on his face.

 The fourth prince knew that the situation was over and he had lost!

 “Boss, you win!”

The fourth prince had a sarcastic smile on his face: "The prince and I have become stepping stones for you. I regret it now. When the prince wanted to kill you, I really should have helped."

The fourth prince looked back at Qianqing Palace, as if he was nostalgic or reminiscing. After a few breaths, he turned to look at the eldest prince: "My mother-in-law is just a woman, she is no threat to you. For the sake of this life, you and I are brothers. , leave her alive."

After saying that, he jumped off the palace wall.
