Lord God: Times have changed

Chapter 112
The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang no longer cares much about government affairs, let alone going to court.But the old man didn't feel much. In the early morning, when the emperor went to court over there, the empress dowager here almost woke up.

It's just that she wakes up and wakes up. Now that it's winter, she doesn't want to get up, so she calls the maid beside her to talk for a while.

Suddenly hearing the noise outside made her frown.

After all, she is well-clothed and well-fed. Although she is old, she has good hearing and eyesight. Amidst the noisy voices, she heard the word "Ji Beng" in a trance, and she sat up in fright. Said: "Go and see what's going on outside!"

Before the maid beside her took a few steps, someone outside had already come to the door and said, "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty was assassinated and died!"

"what!"

The empress dowager exclaimed: "How could you be assassinated? Isn't it time to go to the morning court? Where's the assassin?!"

"Go back to your empress, that assassin is a demon, he can use demon magic, so he suddenly came out in the early court, controlled water and fire, and killed His Majesty and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty!"

The empress dowager was so excited that she almost didn't bring it up in one breath.

But after all, after decades of wind and rain, she forced herself to be calm and said, "What about the assassin? He ran away?"

"No, the assassin swaggered into the imperial dining room and was eating and drinking!"

Imperial Room.

"Okay, this boneless chicken is not only made without a bone or a little bit of bone residue, but even the chicken is so soft and smooth that it melts in your mouth. It is worthy of being the royal chef of the imperial dining room."

Zhou Ming ate the last piece of boneless chicken on the plate, and praised it sincerely.

All the royal chefs were shivering beside them, but they had to keep smiling faces.

At this moment, scattered footsteps came from outside the door, and a large crowd of people gathered.

Zhou Ming grabbed a roast chicken, tore off the chicken legs, and while eating, he watched these people surround the imperial dining room.

Behind the large group of people, a few surviving ministers surrounded a graceful old lady.

Beside them, there are more than a dozen tall and straight, or thin, but with bright eyes, they are warriors with martial arts.

"Empress Dowager, and..." Zhou Ming's eyes fell on the dozen or so warriors, "...A martial arts master who has taken refuge in the imperial court?"

Putting down the half-eaten roast chicken, Zhou Ming washed his hands, grabbed the Taiping sword, and walked to the door of the imperial dining room.

As soon as he left, all the cooks in the imperial dining room hid in the corner.

Over there, the empress dowager seemed to have regained her composure, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

Zhou Ming said with a faint smile, "Ming people!"

The empress dowager immediately revealed her murderous intent, and shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"

The hundreds of guards who had already set their postures immediately shot out the arrows in their hands.

But there was a yellow light covering Zhou Ming's body, blocking all the arrows out.

Zhou Ming jumped up, performed lightness kung fu, flew over the guards' heads, and went straight to the Empress Dowager.

The majesty and majesty made those ministers take half a step back.

After all, they saw the emperor and those ministers die before their eyes, and they were terrified of Zhou Ming's methods.

On the contrary, the Empress Dowager only heard about it from other people, but had never seen it with her own eyes. She had doubts in her heart, so she was not afraid at all.

But those dozens of martial arts masters immediately put on a posture, showing eagerness to try, and it seemed that they expected Zhou Ming to kill the empress dowager, so that they could directly attack.

But if Zhou Ming didn't go, they, as the protectors of the empress dowager, would not dare to leave the empress dowager's side easily.

Fortunately, Zhou Ming was always kind and immediately granted their wishes.

His figure jumped over the heads of the people, and in a short while, he had already passed all the guards, and he was about to approach the empress dowager.

The two masters standing at the front couldn't bear it for a while, and immediately jumped and rushed towards Zhou Ming.

Seeing this, the other masters in the back looked regretful, secretly hating themselves for not responding quickly, and giving those two guys a chance.

But in the next moment, he saw a flash of lightning shining in the air, and another flash of sword light, and scarlet blood gushed out.

Two heads fell to the ground.

Only then did Zhou Ming come down lightly, holding his sword and saying, "What kind of trash dares to fight in front of me?"

The speed of this killing is too fast, it is frightening.

But what is even more frightening is the sudden burst of lightning!

The rest of the martial arts masters lost their vigor, and no one dared to make a move for a while.

The empress dowager knew something was wrong after one glance. That flash of lightning was really scary, and people are most afraid of thinking too much. Now these martial arts masters are afraid to do anything. The more they think about it, the more fearful they become. I didn't dare to do it anymore.

She immediately said: "Everyone go together, whoever can take his life will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, and immediately be appointed as a third-rank official of the imperial court."

Under the heavy reward, the fear in the hearts of more than a dozen martial arts masters immediately dissipated and turned into greed.

After looking at each other, they suddenly shot together and killed Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming quickly responded with his sword, but only used the Heaven and Earth Sword Style.

More than a dozen people beat one, and the person who was beaten was naturally at an absolute disadvantage. Facing the attack of the crowd, Zhou Ming retreated again and again, as if he was not low at all. In addition, these masters didn't know Zhou Ming's martial arts at all, so they were completely at a loss for a while. He didn't realize that Zhou Ming was deliberately hiding his clumsiness.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in Zhou Ming's hand and shot at one of the crowd.

The man dodged in a hurry, but Zhou Ming didn't hide this time, with all his strength, how could he dodge.

When a palm hit his chest, the violent force sent him flying.

The severe pain in his chest was unbearable, but he immediately realized that he was hit by a bolt of lightning!
It was just excruciating pain?

Could it be that……

"Don't be afraid, the lightning is frightening, it can't kill people!"

As soon as he turned over, he stood up and shouted, and then excitedly joined the battle circle.

When everyone saw it, there was no fear in their hearts, and the offensive became more and more fierce.Immediately afterwards, Zhou Ming shot lightning several times, and some of them missed, but they all proved that these lightnings were not as terrible as they imagined in their hearts.

The empress dowager on the other side was not idle either, and ordered the soldiers to surround Zhou Ming in turn.

But at the moment when the encirclement was just formed, Zhou Ming suddenly jumped out of the encirclement of many masters, stepping on those soldiers and leaving.

This time, he went straight to the outside of the Forbidden City.

How could the empress dowager let him leave easily, she quickly ordered the soldiers, and the masters chased after him, leaving only a few soldiers to protect.

The construction of the imperial city is a double structure of the inner and outer city, the outer layer is a circle of city walls, and the inner city is the Forbidden City.The inner and outer cities are added together to form the imperial city.

Therefore, if you want to escape, you must at least pass through two city gates.

Chased by soldiers, Zhou Ming came to the Donghua Gate in the east of the Forbidden City.

But long before the imperial dining room was surrounded, the empress dowager had ordered people to block the gates of the inner and outer cities.

When Zhou Ming came here, there were heavy guards at the city gate.

He stopped for a while and looked around.

In this scene, it looked like he was being attacked from inside and outside, and he couldn't escape.But in fact, the reason why he stopped was to wait for the masters behind, and the soldiers caught up.

Otherwise, with his lightness kung fu, these people would have been wiped out long ago.

However, this scene can't be too fake. After Zhou Ming stopped for a while, he rushed directly to the city gate and entered among the soldiers.

The masters behind saw that Zhou Ming was blocked by those soldiers, they were overjoyed, and couldn't help walking a little faster.
