Ch.426 Encirclement of the Imperial Guard (1) 1

Gong Yimo wasn’t the only one surprised to see the archers ready their bows again. Even Long Hanyan’s face changed!

She originally wanted to yell at Gong Shi for abandoning her, but in her heart, she knew that he definitely wouldn’t kill her, that he was only putting on a show for Gong Yimo. So, she quickly said.

“Look! They’re not under my order! If you’re smart, you’ll let me go! Otherwise, we’ll all die together!”

She spoke firmly, but her palms were sweating for fear that Gong Yimo would disregard that and kill her. Gong Yimo was silent for a moment and was clearly considering it, but after that, she suddenly pulled the blade close, leaving a trace of blood at her neck.

“You are the Princess of Zhaoqing, much favored by the empress dowager herself. I don’t believe that they would actually dare to shoot! Tell them to pull back!”

“I...really have no influence on them...”

That may be so, but half of them were still her men!

Seeing that she didn’t seem to be telling the truth, a fierce glow flashed past Gong Yimo’s eyes and she increased the strength of her hand! Instantly, Long Hanyan began wailing!

“Down! Put your weapons down! Are you going to watch me die?!!”

When she shouted in such a panic, half of them put their arrows down, but another half did not move. Clearly, there really were two groups.

Just then, an unfamiliar voice shouted loudly from the roof.

“Let her go and we’ll let you go!”

When she heard this voice, Gong Yimo and Gong Jue looked at each other, both feeling as if this was a big joke.

“Sure!”

Gong Yimo said so, but she put on a sinister smile and did not move her hand in the slightest.

“I’ll take the Princess of Zhaoqing with me to the palace doors, then I’ll let her go!”

The other side was silent for an instant. It was clear that they did not agree with that. Zhaoqing was not a very strong-willed person, so there was no telling what would happen if she was brought in front of the Emperor?

Seeing that the other party was considering it, Gong Yimo did not push them, so they just faced each other with a tense atmosphere surrounding them!

“Release the arrows!”

Someone suddenly shouted at this moment. Clearly, they did not believe that Gong Yimo would actually dare to kill Long Hanyan!

But Gong Jue smiled. Because, the moment they released the arrows, ten thousand guards suddenly appeared from all directions! Many of them were strong in footwork, directly leaping up onto the rooftops on both sides of the streets and entered into a scuffle with the archers!

So, the rain of arrows was disrupted after one wave, allowing the suddenly approaching guards to kill all of them!

This wasn’t a situation that Gong Shi expected. Even Long Hanyan was shocked and infuriated by the sight of this!

“Gong Jue! Are you crazy? This is the capital! How dare you use the imperial guards for your own private reasons? Are you out of your mind?!!”

She shouted. How could they still resist if the imperial guards were here?

At this moment, Gong Jue went step by step towards Gong Yimo, shooting her a light yet stern gaze in the process, sneering, “I led the troops out on a drill and just so happen to encounter an assassination in the capital, so I took action to quell the rebellion. What crime did I commit?”

For the first time, Long Hanyan realized how good Gong Jue was at lying without even blinking! And she instantly began to resent Gong Yimo even more!

If it wasn’t for her, then Gong Jue would never take such risks!

Even Gong Shi did not expect Gong Jue to be so bold as to risk his own safety to lead out the imperial guards to escort them! He failed again this time!
