The two of them were finally able to breathe. Shen Yu glanced sideways at Xie Tingzhou and asked, "What are you doing back here?"
"I'll pick you up." Xie Tingzhou hadn't picked up his sword for too long, and he had been killing for too long. He gasped and said, "How can I get married when I go back alone?"
Shen Yu pressed her back against him, "You said I would catch up in seven days."
"Really?" Xie Tingzhou snorted coldly, "How dare you use such words to prevaricate me at this time."
"Hold on a little longer." Xie Tingzhou held her hand, "My father sent 3,000 Qingyun Guards to take us back to Beilin. Xifeng has already gone to pick us up. They should be here soon."
Their hands were covered in blood, and they were very sticky when held together, but neither of them let go.
Shen Yu said: "I also have reinforcements."
"Where did you get the reinforcements?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
Seeing that the imperial guard was not moving forward, Jiang An couldn't help shouting: "Come on! Come on for me! Go! Call the archers, I will shoot them into hedgehogs."
Li Yanchang had already slid to the ground, leaning against the wall, looking at the chaos in front of him.
Without a permanent ally, Jiang An abandoned him at this time.
No one paid attention to him, his people had not come to kill him, and the people above him would not save him.
Blood was pouring from his neck. He couldn't hold it down, and his spirit was drained away with the loss of blood.
He looked at everything in front of him and knew that he would not survive.
Xie Tingzhou was not part of his plan, and Shen Yu's reaction was not part of his plan. He was too conceited and underestimated the enemy.
Those are Xie Tingzhou and Shen Yu.
Just a little bit of relaxation before victory can allow them to seize loopholes and opportunities.
"Why...why...it's not here yet?" He murmured.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake, and the sound of horse hooves became louder and louder as it got closer.
Shen Yu stared at the blood puddle on the ground, which rippled in the vibration.
Shen Yu was overjoyed, "It's reinforcements, Xiao Chuan is here!"
But she took a deep breath and did not dare to relax, staring closely in the direction of the palace gate.
boom--
The palace door was hit with a dull sound.
Jiang An's expression changed, "Quick! We can't let them go!"
The imperial army pressed forward again, and the two of them fought to the death. Whoever blocked their way out of the palace would die!
Boom——Boom——Boom——
Continuous crashes sounded, and with the last roar, the palace door opened.
"Sir!" Xiao Chuan shouted on the horse: "My subordinate is late."
Standing behind him were the men who had followed Shen Yu to Qichang to suppress the bandits.
Shen Yu looked back at the majestic hall and could see the Forbidden Army brothers following her. She could not leave them behind.
Xiao Chuan immediately shouted: "Don't worry, sir, the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division will be here soon, and Marquis Xuanping has already sent his private troops back to the capital. We have to leave quickly! If we are late, we will be blocked." "
Shen Yu took another look at the main hall and seemed to be able to see Li Zhaonian looking in the direction of the palace gate.
He raised his hand and moved the back of his hand outward, which meant to tell her to leave quickly.
Shen Yu gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go!"
Xie Tingzhou whistled, and a horse galloped over.
He got on his horse, picked up Shen Yu and placed it in front of him, then galloped towards the city gate.
"Come half of them, let me chase them!" Jiang An chased after him, "Marquis Xuanping has sealed the city gate, they can't escape! They must be killed."
The people had long been hiding behind closed doors due to the changes, but they were able to travel unimpeded.
"Fuck! The city gate isn't open."
Xiao Chuan saw the closed city gate from a distance, and behind him were the pursuing imperial guards.
"Sir, do you want to go to the north gate?" Xiao Chuan reined in his horse and asked.
Shen Yu looked back and said, "I guess all the city gates have been closed. The only way is to break through."
The road ahead is blocked and there are troops chasing behind. This is a tough battle.
Shen Yuji pulled out the Yin Feng from her waist and prepared to fight to the end.
The heavy city gate suddenly made a sound and slowly opened on both sides.
"What's going on?" Xiao Chuan asked in shock.
"Auntie——"
Shen Yu suddenly looked around and saw Pei Chunli standing on the city wall, holding on to the wall stacks and looking at her.
"The door is open, let's go quickly!" Pei Chunli shouted.
He was holding something in his hand, which was the token he had stolen from Marquis Xuanping.
He was no longer the simple child who knew nothing. His father taught him to be an upright person, so he chose to stand on the opposite side of his father.
"Pei Chunli..." Shen Yu murmured his name.
Xie Tingzhou made a quick decision and rushed to the city gate with his whip raised.
Everyone quickly left the city.
"Close the door!" Pei Chunli held up the sign and ordered.
The city gates rumbled shut, blocking Jiang An's men in the city.
"Damn it!" Jiang An stopped his horse, "Xuan Pinghou's good-for-nothing son is ruining my good deeds."
"Commander." One of the Imperial Guards asked: "What should we do now?"
Jiang An said: "Smash, I smashed the city gate."
Pei Chunli ran to the other side. After saying goodbye this time, we might never see each other again.
He wanted to take another look at his most cherished friend.
"Ah Yu, Ah Yu." Pei Chunli murmured Shen Yu's name, leaning on the wall and looking around, and finally saw Shen Yu in the crowd.
"Shen Yu——" He raised his voice and called her.
Shen Yu turned around on her horse and saw Pei Chunli looking at her against Chang Feng.
Pei Chunli smiled with tears in his eyes, took a deep breath and shouted: "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay, it's okay." Shen Yu's eyes turned red, "It's not your fault."
Pei Chunli nodded. Although her voice was not loud, he seemed to understand what she was saying. She really didn't blame him.
He raised his hand to his mouth and shouted, "Auntie, does this count as giving you something back?"
"You don't owe me anything."
Pei Chunli: "Then can we be friends again in the future?"
"Yes!" Shen Yu shouted: "You will always be my friend!"
Pei Chunli smiled happily, "Let's go! Let's go! My father will come back soon -"
puff--
Pei Chunli's voice stopped abruptly as the sound of an arrow sinking into his body.
Shen Yu's eyes widened in horror, and her face turned extremely pale in an instant.
Pei Chunli looked down and saw half a bloody arrow pierced through his chest.
He could no longer summon the energy to shout, so he could only open his mouth and whisper: "Go quickly, go quickly..."
“Anan——!”
Shen Yu cried heartbreakingly.
She struggled to roll over from Xie Tingzhou and was held tightly in his arms.
Xie Tingzhou reached out and covered her eyes, not wanting her to look anymore.
Shen Yu pulled his hand down and saw Pei Chunli leaning forward while leaning against the wall.
"Go quickly..."
"Go quickly..."
His body finally lost his balance and fell down from the towering city wall. The wind ruffled his robe, as if it wanted to take him somewhere.
“Junrei Pei——!”
Shen Yu cried so hard that she was pressed tightly to her chest by Xie Tingzhou, and she ran towards home in the strong wind.
Xie Tingzhou hugged her tightly and looked back at Shengjing.
The place he had wanted to escape from.
Today, they left in embarrassment, and they will eventually return here in the future.
Use the enemy's head as a blood sacrifice.
