Ch.465 The Sudden Change in Weather (2)

“Princess, you can’t come out until we’re at the Tiantai. Don’t give those people an opportunity to make things difficult for you by saying that you refused to follow the ancestors’ rules.”

The leading official alsos tated, “Don’t worry. These elites are the prince’s subordinates and they have strong martial arts skills. He’s not a match against them!”

However, he underestimated the man’s power.

As the man clad in gray attacked, the imperial guards gradually couldn’t keep up. As they continued to engage in battle, each one of them fell and died.

The leading official was a bit anxious and hurriedly indicated for the rest of the imperial guards to charge.

However, when did these common people see such a massacre?

There were lots of hushed gasps, and people were even more afraid!

At the same time, the heavens didn’t relent and kept on thundering loudly. Even more, the imperial guards gradually fell successively. There was a disturbance within the troop and everyone became restless.

Who is he? He dares to cause trouble on his own?!

The imperial guards hurriedly shuffled towards the middle and blocked in front of the ceremonial troop, protecting the people behind.

If something happened to the princess on this day, they couldn’t answer to the prince!

“Once the devil regains her position, the country will be in chaos! Stop taking the side of the enemy!”

After he slit the throat of the last imperial guard, the crazy man pointed his sword at the official troop, trying to advise everyone. Right now, his clothes were still wrinkled as usual, but there was no trace of blood.

He was forcing Gong Yimo to show herself.

Gong Yimo’s heart shivered. First, the empress dowager added powder to her food, and then she chose a pretty good day to send an outstanding assassin to ruin her day?

If she didn’t engage in battle, with this man’s martial arts skill, even if they did seize him at the end, there would be countless deaths and injuries. By then, there would be a bloodbath and that’d be inauspicious to this day!

But if she wanted to engage in battle, according to the ancestors’ rules, she could only reveal herself at the Tiantai. If she came out right now, she’d be giving those old-fashioned people information to be used against her. Secondly, how was she supposed to participate in battle even if she wasn’t poisoned if she was wearing layers of court dress? The other party didn’t seem to be weaker than her as well!

As she was in a dilemma, Gong Yimo suddenly smiled. There was a master by the empress dowager’s side.

The imperial guards’ hearts shivered. They knew that they mustn’t let Gong Yimo participate in battle otherwise she’d be committing a taboo. If something happens, they can’t answer to the prince either!

Therefore, they must fight him!

But just as the two parties were able to engage and prepared to win through the advantage of having more people, the golden curtains slightly swayed and vaguely revealed a woman half reclining against the wall.

A pleasant voice rang as though she was sighing, as though it was happy but sad too. However, it was clear, “I’m a devil?”

The man clad in gray smiled at the golden sedan chair.

“If not you, then who?”

“Who are you?”

The other party snorted. “As someone who is about to die, you’re not worthy of knowing.”

Gong Yimo chuckled. “Then you’re here to fight me?”

“Princess, you mustn’t” Before the man could say anything, the leading official said nervously, “Today is an auspicious day. You can’t reveal yourself until you’re at the Tiantai!”

The man clad in gray laughed again. Even more, he raised his eyebrows in disdain, flinging the rusted sword in his hands.

“Auspicious day? I think it’s an inauspicious day instead!”

The voice in the golden sedan chair became silent. He thought that he had intimidated the person inside and was extremely proud. However, he then heard rustling in the sedan chair as if the princess was tired and changed into a more comfortable position.

“Did you know?” The lazy voice was mixed with a tint of disdain, and she coldly humphed.

“Those that want to kill me have all died in the end!”
