Zhuo Dingfeng took a few breaths, recovered, shook his head, and said to his wife and children, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Yan Yujin, who was most concerned about Xiao Jingrui, saw that Zhuo Dingfeng had suffered such a great blow, and was worried that Xiao Jingrui, who had also suffered a severe blow, would not be able to bear it, so he asked with concern: "Jingrui, do you want to also..."
Xiao Jingrui suffered a great blow, but he was not as fragile as others thought. He silently shook his head at Yan Yujin.
Looking at the painful Zhuo Dingfeng, Yue Xiu Ze, who had just challenged him, said with a guilty tone: "Brother Zhuo, I'm sorry. In fact, I had to challenge you tonight out of my own selfishness. I was worried that if you knew that the child was not your son, it would affect your mood during the duel, so..."
Zhuo Dingfeng shook his head and said, "Brother Yue, this is not your fault. I was blind and misjudged him."
Then he looked at Xie Yu with complicated eyes, and said with great regret: "Those passionate words you said to me were really chilling."
Xie Yu did not feel the slightest bit of guilt. Instead, he shouted confidently, "What I said to you was not all lies. Supporting the crown prince is a noble cause. Other ambitious people are all traitors. At least I promised to give you the honor of the Zhuo family. I never thought of denying it after it was accomplished."
Xia Dong sneered, "But if he has the slightest doubt or dissatisfaction with you, you will be ruthless and kill his entire family. How is this different from those heartless and ambitious people? You are a completely despicable villain."
Thinking that her husband Nie Feng was killed by this man, and that she had been deceived for more than ten years and had been worshiping a strange corpse for twelve years, she was extremely angry.
Although Xie Yu was wondering why Xia Dong was targeting him like this, he didn't take it too seriously. After all, he was a first-rank military marquis, so how could he be afraid of Xia Dong? He would not kill Xia Dong, but Xia Dong could not threaten him either.
"Those who accomplish great things do not care about trivial matters. Your Majesty will understand my loyalty to the court."
After talking for so long, Mei Changsu suddenly asked, "Master Xie, has the person you just sent out to investigate come back?"
Xie Yu laughed: "After all, it was Mr. Su who reacted first. The reason why I am wasting time here listening to you guys chatting is naturally for my own reasons."
Mei Changsu suddenly asked: "Did you transfer the people from the patrol camp?"
Xie Yu said confidently: "How can the fighting power of Prince Yu's palace soldiers be compared with the patrol battalion trained by this marquis himself?"
Meng Zhi and Xia Dong looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. As Mei Changsu and Zhou Chen had expected, Xie Yu really mobilized the patrol battalion.
Meng Zhi even scolded him angrily: "Xie Yu, although the patrol battalion is under your command, it is not your palace soldiers. How dare you use the patrol battalion privately? You are really bold."
Xie Yu replied calmly, "Commander-in-Chief Meng, please don't wrongly accuse me. Maintaining the security of the capital is the duty of the patrol battalion. As long as they don't enter my mansion, what right do you have to say that I transferred it for personal use?"
Meng Zhi was speechless and could only look at Mei Changsu. However, Xie Yu didn't want to wait any longer at this time. He just raised his hand and prepared to give the order to take action.
But Xie Bi suddenly rushed out and wanted to stop Xie Yu, but Xie Yu was determined to kill him and didn't listen at all. Instead, he controlled Xie Bi.
He didn't care about Xiao Jingrui because Xiao Jingrui was not his son at all, but Xie Bi was his biological son and he couldn't just ignore him.
Xie Yu and Princess Li Yang are not very good people, but Xiao Jingrui and Xie Bi, whom they raised, are both good people.
As the eldest son of the Marquis's family, Xie Bi could have just stood by and watched, but he still stood up and pleaded for mercy, which shows that he truly regarded the Zhuo family as his relatives, and was not just saying it.
"Come here, take the princess and the young lady back to the backyard. They are not allowed to move around. The witch in the courtyard and her followers, as well as Zhuo's accomplices, must be killed without mercy!"
"Qiang..."
At the command, all the soldiers drew their weapons and roared loudly.
Zhou Chen's eyes were stern. In fact, when he made his move before, he had a chance to capture Xie Yu.
However, Mei Changsu had discussed with him before that capturing and killing Xie Yu was not the most important thing. The most important thing was to make Xie Yu fall out with the Zhuo family, because the Zhuo family knew most about his dirty deeds. Only by making Zhuo Dingfeng despair could the best evidence be obtained.
The best way to make Zhuo Dingfeng despair is to force Xie Yu to kill someone. Only when Xie Yu has the intention to kill Zhuo's family, will Zhuo Dingfeng give up and despair.
"kill!"
Xie Yu roared, and the hundreds of palace soldiers who surrounded the courtyard rushed towards the people in the courtyard at the same time, while Xie Yu himself retreated quickly and hid behind the crowd.
Zhou Chen kicked the attacker away and whispered to Gong Yu, "Step back and be careful. I'll see if I can catch Xie Yu."
"Well, sir, be careful."
Gong Yu nodded. She did not try to be stubborn. She knew what was most important now. To Zhou Chen, the child in her belly might be Zhou Chen's only blood, so no matter what happened, she would protect the child.
Zhou Chen turned his head to avoid the attacking spear, grabbed the spear body, pulled it hard, pulled the spearman over and slapped him away, then gripped the spear tightly, pointed it in the direction of Xie Yu, and threw it suddenly.
Xie Yu was startled and retreated quickly. His soldiers were indeed loyal. One of them blocked the spear with his body and died on the spot.
Zhou Chen grabbed a long knife and slashed madly, killing Xie Yu with all his strength.
Seeing Zhou Chen so ferocious and so many palace soldiers unable to stop his advance, Xie Yu was also shocked and retreated a few feet again.
"Stop him, kill him, kill him." Xie Yu shouted loudly.
More soldiers rushed towards Zhou Chen, making it impossible for him to move.
While killing the enemies, Zhou Chen was thinking. Although he had practiced the Pure Yang Technique to the pinnacle, this was only a low-level martial arts world after all. It was possible for him to fight one against a hundred, but to want to fight one against a thousand was just a pipe dream.
What's more, many of Xie Yu's soldiers are veterans who are wearing armor and are not afraid of death, so it is indeed not easy to kill them.
Therefore, it was now impossible for him to catch Xie Yu in the crowd by himself.
Giving up on capturing Xie Yu, Zhou Chen retreated. When the palace soldiers saw Zhou Chen retreating, they all shouted and rushed over to kill him.
Zhou Chen glanced around and found that the main target of these palace soldiers was the Zhuo family. He and Gong Yu had no problem, and Gong Yu also retreated to the side of Mei Changsu. Fei Liu stood in front of Gong Yu, preventing those palace soldiers from getting close.
But the three members of the Zhuo family suffered a disaster. They were surrounded and Zhuo Dingfeng injured his tendons. He had little fighting power left and could only fight back barely. After a while, he was injured.
Madam Zhuo and Zhuo Qingyao were not much better off. Their martial arts skills were not weak, but they could not handle the Xie Mansion soldiers who kept surrounding and attacking them.
Seeing that the Zhuo family was about to be in danger, Xiao Jingrui, who had been in a panic, finally came to his senses. He rushed into the hall and took out the Feihong Sword that Zhou Chen had given him.
Xiao Jingrui killed the palace soldier behind Madam Zhuo with one sword, and then protected Madam Zhuo and continued to kill the enemies, which moved Madam Zhuo very much.
She hated Xie Yu and Princess Li Yang, but she did not hate Xiao Jingrui. She knew that Xiao Jingrui was also a victim. Moreover, she had loved Xiao Jingrui for more than 20 years and had long regarded him as her own son.
Xie Yu and Princess Li Yang plotted against them, and Xie Yu even wanted to kill them. Xiao Jingrui could have just stood by and watched, but he took action at this time, which meant that her love for this child over the years was not in vain.
As soon as Xiao Jingrui took action, Yan Yujin also followed suit. He stood with Fei Liu to protect Mei Changsu and Gong Yu.
When Yuwen Nian saw Xiao Jingrui taking action, she drew her sword without hesitation to help Xiao Jingrui fight the enemy. As for Yue Xiu Ze, needless to say, he rushed to Zhuo Dingfeng and killed the enemy.
When Xie Yu saw this scene, he was so angry that he trembled and roared, "Yuwen Xuan, didn't you say you wouldn't interfere?"
Yuwen Xuan spread his hands and said, "I didn't interfere. They are not under my jurisdiction, so I can't do anything about it."
Xie Yu shouted again in anger: "Kill, kill!"
When one team of palace soldiers was almost killed, another team rushed up. This time, all the people who rushed up were fully armed, carrying shields, and they cooperated with each other.
Meng Zhi and Xia Dong looked at each other, and Meng Zhi shouted, "Do it."
As he said that, he rushed forward, and Xia Dong quickly took out a firework and ran directly into the air.
The fireworks shot up into the sky, attracting Xie Yu's attention. He looked solemn, knowing that Xia Dong was notifying the Xuan Jing Division.
However, he was still quite calm. There were people from the patrol camp guarding outside, so even if it was someone from the Xuan Jing Division, they would not be able to break in for a while.
But his calmness did not last long, and the next moment, his face changed drastically.
Suddenly, a series of nimble figures appeared on the wall of his mansion, then quickly rushed into the courtyard and killed his soldiers indiscriminately.
"Xuan Jingsi, when did you come in? Xia Dong, how dare you send soldiers to attack my First-Rank Marquis Mansion?"
Xia Dong said in a cold voice: "Xie Yu, I have already investigated clearly that you are the mastermind of the eunuch's murder. His Majesty has ordered us to escort you to the Imperial Court. Why don't you surrender?"
Xie Yu's face was ugly, and he roared: "How dare you! I want to see who will win tonight."
At this point, he had no choice. He had not thought about killing Xia Dong at first, but when the people from Xuan Jingsi appeared, he knew that he had no way out.
As long as he could kill everyone here, he would have enough reasons to exonerate himself even if the matter came to His Majesty. What's more, he was not alone in the court. He didn't believe that His Majesty would treat a first-rank marquis's mansion differently for a group of dead people.
"Kill, kill, kill them all, don't let any one go."
With hundreds of people from the Xuan Jing Division rushing in to help, the pressure on Zhou Chen and others was greatly reduced.
Mei Changsu pulled Meng Zhi over and ordered, "Capture the leader first. Go and cooperate with Xiaochen and find a way to capture Xie Yu. As long as we catch him, everything will be over."
"it is good."
Meng Zhi responded and asked Xia Dong and Fei Liu to protect Mei Changsu, then he rushed to Zhou Chen.
"I'll cover you and catch Xie Yu."
Zhou Chen didn't waste any time and directly used his internal energy to burst out with all his strength.
"kill!"
Xie Yu was surrounded by people. Zhou Chen and Meng Zhi were both extremely powerful. With their cooperation, the palace soldiers could not resist at all.
When Xie Yu saw this scene, he panicked and shouted, "Go, get the bows and arrows from the patrol camp, quickly."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 850: Catch the leader first, take down Xie Yu
Xie Yu's idea was good. In his opinion, these martial arts masters were very powerful, but the bows and arrows in the army were more lethal. As long as the bows and arrows arrived, they would definitely be able to kill these hateful martial arts masters.
But Zhou Chen and Meng Zhi had already joined together. Under the powerful burst of force from the two, the palace soldiers who stood in front of Xie Yu were killed one by one and repelled.
Xie Yu shouted angrily: "Stop them, stop them."
He was really a little panicked. After watching for a while, he felt that the fighting power of these two people was too terrifying. If he let them rush in front of him, he would be really finished.
Zhou Chen and Meng Zhi indeed used their full strength, because they both knew that as long as they captured Xie Yu, everything would be over, and they were the only two people who had such ability.
Even though both of them used their full strength, Xie Yu's soldiers were really elite. They were killed wave after wave, but they still rushed forward fearlessly.
Two fists are no match for four hands.
Although Zhou Chen and Meng Zhi's martial arts were not yet so powerful that they were difficult to defeat, it was already very difficult for them to move forward.
At this moment, Xia Dong suddenly shouted: "Brother Chun, Xie Yu is the murderer. His Majesty has ordered that Xie Yu be arrested."
Xia Chun climbed over the wall with the people from Xuan Jingsi. In fact, at noon, Xia Dong said that Xie Yu was the murderer of the eunuch and that His Majesty had issued an order to arrest Xie Yu. He was shocked.
However, he immediately raised his own doubts. Since His Majesty wanted to arrest Xie Yu, why didn't he directly issue an order to the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, but instead asked them to the Xuan Jing Division to arrest him, and not directly, but had to wait.
But when Xia Dong took the imperial edict and said that all the responsibilities would be borne by her, Xia Chun did not refute it, but instead said very seriously that he would be responsible for it.
It has to be said that Xia Chun is indeed good at scheming. When he saw how determined Xia Dong was, his attitude changed. He was afraid that Xia Dong would take away all the credit, so he immediately changed his mind.
After seeing the fireworks set off by Xia Dong, he, who had been prepared, immediately led his men into Xie Yu's mansion.
He was a little nervous at first, but when he saw the chaotic scene in Xie's house, he knew that his chance to make a contribution had come.
So at Xia Dong's order, he led his men to charge towards Xie Yu without hesitation.
With Xia Chun's help, Zhou Chen and Meng Zhi were relieved of the pressure, while Xie Yu became angry and humiliated.
"Xia Chun, do you from Xuan Jing Division want to rebel? How dare you trespass into my First-Rank Marquisate?"
Xia Chun was not at all intimidated, and shouted loudly: "Lord Xie, surrender, so that you can still argue when you come to His Majesty. If you resist again, don't blame me for being merciless."
Xie Yu roared: "Even if it was your master Xia Jiang, he wouldn't dare to talk to me like that. Since you want to die, then go and die."
"Kill, kill them all."
If he was still rational and could deal with all this calmly just now, now he was completely enraged. It was obvious that Xuan Jingsi had some support in attacking his mansion so blatantly.
But he also knew that this was definitely not His Majesty's will, otherwise it would not be just Xia Chun and Xia Dong who came.
So he knew his current situation and had no choice but to fight to the death, even if it meant killing Xia Dong and Xia Chun.
While Xie Yu was furious and Xuan Jingsi was rushing over to help, Zhou Chen and Meng Zhi seized the opportunity and burst out with all their strength again, blasting away the dozens of soldiers in front of them.
"Commander Meng, please lend me a hand."
Zhou Chen shouted in a low voice, and Meng Zhi understood what he meant. Zhou Chen suddenly jumped up, and Meng Zhi collided his palms with Zhou Chen's feet and exerted force suddenly.
"go."
With the help of Meng Zhi's strength and his own internal force, Zhou Chen reached his maximum speed. He shot towards Xie Yu like a sharp arrow, passing countless palace soldiers and came to a distance of less than two meters away from Xie Yu.
Seeing this, Xie Yu was horrified and shouted in fear: "Stop him."
Suddenly, several spears stabbed at Zhou Chen who was attacking from the air. Zhou Chen swung the long sword in his hand and chopped on the spear handles, cutting off all the spear heads with one sword. Then he stepped on the head of one of the soldiers, and used the force again to come two steps in front of Xie Yu.
Xie Yu was horrified. He grabbed the long sword on the guard and slashed at Zhou Chen. There were also several guards around him.
Zhou Chen roared and swung his sword again, cutting off several long swords. With one side of his body, he passed through the protection of many guards like a loach, and slapped several people away with his palm. Then, under Xie Yu's horrified gaze, he grabbed his collar and pulled him directly in front of him.
"Shh!"
Zhou Chen put the blade across Xie Yu's neck and shouted, "Stop it, everyone."
The roar that was filled with strength was equally powerful even in the chaos of the courtyard fight. All those who were fighting could not help but look over there.
When they saw that Zhou Chen had subdued Xie Yu, they all stopped fighting involuntarily.
"Master Hou!"
When the soldiers of the Xie Mansion saw their master being captured, they all panicked and had no time to kill anyone. Zhuo Dingfeng and others finally got a chance to catch their breath.
