Chapter 1412: Emperor An's Death, the End of the Mountain Pass

In the Zhuyi Guardhouse, Deng Hui looked gloomy and yelled at many of his subordinates.

As the largest and most powerful intelligence agency in Anguo, Zhu Yiwei's ability to sit in the position of commander of Zhuyiwei also means that he has become one of the most powerful people in Anguo.

But in fact, for Deng Hui, he never wanted to be the commander of Zhu Yiwei, and even hated this organization deeply.

But no matter what he thinks, he has no way out now. One big thing after another has happened in Andun recently, but Zhu Yiwei is completely manipulated by others, which makes him, the commander, very depressed. Qu.

Zhu Yiwei's left and right envoys were killed one after another, so now he can only do everything by himself.

What puts him under great pressure is that Emperor An is going crazy now. If he can't find Ren Xin, he may lose his head at any time.

It's just that he has asked everyone in Zhu Yiwei to disperse and search with all his strength, but he can't find Ren Xin's whereabouts. Seeing that the deadline given by Emperor An is getting closer and closer, his pressure is getting bigger and bigger. I dare not sleep anymore.

Although he doesn't like Zhu Yiwei, as a commander, he usually doesn't treat his subordinates too harshly, but now, he has no other way, with the knife hanging on his neck, it's not crazy.

Just as he was furious and yelling, suddenly a purple-clothed envoy hurried in.

"Your Majesty, there is news."

Deng Hui was immediately overjoyed and asked eagerly: "Have you found Ren Xin?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, our people discovered that a mysterious woman secretly entered the palace of King Luoxi. This person may be the former left envoy Ren Xin."

"King Luoxi, the second prince?"

Deng Hui's expression changed slightly, which was beyond his expectation.

"After she entered, was there any movement in Prince Luoxi's palace?"

"No, it's calm. Our people are still keeping an eye on her. As soon as she comes out, we will never lose her again."

The joy on Deng Hui's face subsided slightly and he hesitated slightly. After the eldest prince was assassinated, the second prince became the most favorable contender for the throne. Although Zhu Yiwei was powerful and had a special status, he could not attack the prince's mansion.

"You guys keep an eye on Prince Luoxi's palace first. I'll go into the palace to meet with His Majesty."

When Emperor An learned from Deng Hui that Ren Xin had actually entered the Luoxi Palace, his face instantly became extremely gloomy.

"You mean that the second child may be the one who colluded with Ren Xin, and even the boss may have been assassinated by Ren Xin under the orders of the second child?"

"I don't know, but according to the reports from my subordinates, Ren Xin did enter the palace of King Luoxi and has not come out yet."

Emperor An slapped his palm heavily on the case, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Second dick."

He was not very satisfied with the eldest prince and the second prince, but after all, he was his biological son and his only adult son.

Now that the eldest prince has been assassinated and the second prince is actually related to the assassination, even he, an emperor who has killed countless people in the battlefield, is extremely headache and chilling.

"Go and surround the second prince's residence. I want you to bring the second prince and Ren Xin here, otherwise you will come to see them."

"I obey the order."

One is the prince and the other is the emperor. Of course Deng Hui knows how to choose. At this time, of course his own life is the most important.

So he immediately took Zhu Yiwei and the imperial army sent by Emperor An to surround the second prince's mansion. Amid the angry roar of the second prince Li Zhenye, he led his men directly into the palace and launched a search.

The second prince, Li Zhenye, still doesn't know what happened. He wanted to denounce angrily, but he was detained by the imperial army and could not make any resistance.

Deng Hui also had no time to talk nonsense with Li Zhenye and personally led the search. Just when they found a separate courtyard, a man dressed in red suddenly rushed out. After quickly killing a few people, he wanted to rush out of the palace.

"Catch her, don't let her get away."

Seeing the real owner, Deng Hui roared excitedly, his voice distorted.

The entire palace was surrounded by a large number of Zhu Yiwei and Imperial Guards. Ren Ruyi tried his best to break out, but failed and was surrounded.

Deng Hui finally met Ren Xin and confirmed Ren Xin's identity. He stepped forward to persuade Ren Xin to surrender, but how could Ren Ruyi surrender and charged again.

Just when Deng Hui felt that he had secured the victory, suddenly there was a violent explosion around him, and then several figures rushed out from nowhere and unexpectedly charged into the encirclement. With the cooperation of Ren Ruyi, he broke out from the encirclement and soon It quickly disappeared between the buildings.

Deng Hui was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat and shouted sternly: "Chase, chase..."

He chased him, but unfortunately, he didn't catch up with even one person in the end. In his own territory, so many people actually lost him. Deng Hui's face was really ashen.

But he couldn't escape, so he had to go to the palace to plead guilty. But to his surprise, Emperor An did not actually execute him. Instead, he continued to ask him to track down Ren Xin and his accomplices.

As for the second prince Li Zhenye, because of his collusion with Ren Xin, Emperor An severely punished him and ordered him to be exiled to Tianmen Pass. He was not allowed to return to the court without an order.

Although Li Zhenye repeatedly cried and begged, Emperor An also knew that Li Zhenye might have been used by Ren Xin, but the matter had spread, and everyone in the court felt that Li Zhenye had murdered the eldest prince, especially the people of the eldest prince's line, so he had to Punish Li Zhenye.

Today's Emperor An thinks that he is strong and will not be a problem to be the emperor for more than ten years, so he does not pay much attention to his two sons.

Even though one died and another was given away, there was still a newly born third prince. In his opinion, the young third prince was a more suitable heir than the other two sons.

Li Zhenye was exiled to Tianmen Pass. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only obey the emperor's orders humbly and humbly.

He only brought his own personal entourage, and was escorted by a group of forbidden troops to Tianmen Pass.

But just when they were far away from Andu and about to arrive at Tianmen Pass, two assassins suddenly came out. The team of forbidden soldiers resisted to the death, but they were unable to stop them and were destroyed by the entire army.

Li Zhenye and his entourage hugged each other tightly, trembling with fear and devastated.

"Who are you, what are you?"

Ren Ruyi slowly turned around, faced the second prince, and asked in a cold tone: "Second prince, have you forgotten me so soon?"

Li Zhenye was stunned for a moment when he saw Ren Ruyi's appearance, and then he trembled even more as if he saw something strange.

"You, you, you are Ren Xin, it is really you, you are not dead, you harmed me, you harmed me..."

After being assigned, he also knew the reason why he was assigned, so when he saw Ren Ruyi, he was filled with fear and anger, because Ren Ruyi made him lose everything.

But no matter how angry he was, when facing Ren Ruyi again, he couldn't resist at all. He was just an ordinary person with no power, so how could he be the opponent of Ren Xin, who was so murderous?

Ren Ruyi looked at him condescendingly: "You were one of the murderers who killed my queen back then. My queen loved you so much, but you betrayed her."

Hearing this, Li Zhenye suddenly shouted: "Why do you blame me? This is not my fault. It is all the mother's fault. Why does she have to go against the father? If she and the father are good, I can be the prince. I I don’t want to do that, but my mother forced me to do everything, and she brought it on herself.”

"You really don't deserve my mother's love at all, and you don't deserve to be her son."

Ren Xin saw his ferocious face, and his unrepentant attitude completely disappointed her. When she was close to the queen, she also watched Li Zhenye grow up, but looking at Li Zhenye now, even if the empress had a dog, she would probably have to pay for it. More filial than this biological son.

Li Zhenye wanted to say something more, but Ren Ruyi's eyes flashed coldly, and the sword in his hand instantly passed over Li Zhenye's body.

Following Li Zhenye's miserable scream, Ren Ruyi shook off the blood on his sword.

"You are my mother's son. Although you have betrayed me, you still have my blood, so I won't kill you."

The corners of Zhou Chen's lips twitched at the side. This is his wife. She said she would not kill her, but it was more painful than killing her. After all, her hand tendons and hamstrings were severed. Even though she was still alive, she would not be able to kill her for the rest of her life. He is just a useless person, and living is not much better than being dead.

After breaking Li Zhenye's tendons, Ren Ruyi and Zhou Chen quickly left.

This result is also very good in Zhou Chen's opinion. At least Li Zhenye can't go to Tianmen Pass now. Without Li Zhenye as the inner ghost, it will not be so easy for Beipan to break through Tianmen Pass.

There is still a turmoil in Andu. If Ren Xin is not caught, An Di will not have peace in his heart.

And with the events of these days, the court situation has also undergone subtle changes. After all, Emperor An's collusion with Beipan was considered an unjust act by many people. This caused Emperor An's domestic prestige to be greatly affected.

Especially in the recent court meeting, there was even a censor who asked whether Emperor An had really colluded with Beipan. Emperor An was so angry that he flew into a rage on the spot. If the officials hadn't stopped him, he might have chopped off the head of the censor. .

Late at night, in a room in the Wuguo Mission Post House.

Zhou Chen, Ning Yuanzhou and others gathered together, and Yu Shisan asked curiously: "Why are you the only one and your wife didn't follow?"

Zhou Chen said: "The two of us have big goals, so I can come alone to discuss them. How are you preparing?"

Ning Yuanzhou said with a serious face: "We have investigated the military strength near Yong'an Tower. You have made a lot of noise recently. Although the guards there have not been reduced, they have not been increased. Even if we are prepared and want to capture, It’s not that easy either.”

"I know, but Ruyi and I have already made a decision and will choose to assassinate Emperor An. As long as we assassinate Emperor An, no matter whether we succeed or not, the guards of Yong'an Tower will definitely become the weakest, and then you will have a chance to rescue Emperor Wu."

"What? You want to assassinate Emperor An, are you crazy?"

Hearing Zhou Chen's decision, Ning Yuanzhou and others were shocked. The assassination of the eldest prince Li Shouji was successful before, but after all, Li Shouji was only a prince and lived in his own mansion. But Emperor An was different. He lived in In the imperial palace, it was the most heavily guarded place in Anguo.

Even though they had seen Ren Ruyi and Zhou Chen's martial arts, they still didn't think they could succeed.

Zhou Chen said: "Don't worry about us. Since we have chosen to do this, we naturally have sufficient plans and preparations. All you have to do is seize the opportunity."

"But."

"Don't be stubborn. Anyway, we have decided that the time for the assassination will be.... How you will act then will depend on your own abilities."

Zhou Chen did not stay longer at the post house. After discussing with Ning Yuanzhou and the others, he quickly left, leaving only a few people with heavy faces behind.

"Lao Zhou, after all, we are no longer on the same page."

One night half a month later, in the huge Andu, thunder exploded late at night.

Emperor An was seriously injured in an assassination attempt. The assassin was Ren Xin, the former Zhu Yiwei left envoy. She who assassinated Emperor An was surrounded by heavy soldiers and died under the swords of the Yulin Guards.

The seriously injured Emperor An did not last long. He died three days later. The throne was passed on to the third prince who was under one year old, and the first noble concubine listened behind the curtain...

That is to say, that night, the Wu Kingdom's envoys raided Yong'an Tower, rescued Emperor Wu who was trapped in Yong'an Tower, and then rushed out of Andu without any trace.

…………

A few months later.

In a hidden valley, dozens of people were working under the sun. They were laying the foundation and preparing to build a house. The leader was Zhou Chen.

After a long time, Zhou Chen stopped working, walked aside, took the tea from Ren Ruyi, and drank it in one gulp.

"In a few months, it will be completed. This will be our base camp of Langya Pavilion from now on."

Ren Ruyi looked at everything around her with a smile on her face. The people working around her were either poor people she brought from Zhu Yiwei or people borrowed from Jin Meiniang. They were all loyal people.

Zhou Chen drew the blueprints, and a group of people were building Langya Pavilion.

"Mei Niang has sent a lot of news today. It's not peaceful outside now."

"Oh, what happened?"

After leaving Andu, they spent some time to find this mountain range, and then began to build a large undertaking without knowing much about the outside world.

Ren Ruyi slowly told the news he knew.

After the death of Emperor An, the three princes of Anguo succeeded to the throne. Concubine Chu listened behind the curtain, and ministers such as Duke Chu and Marquis Changqing jointly assisted the country. Although Anguo's strength declined, it no longer conquered east and west, and civil strife began. After a while, it slowly calmed down.

On the contrary, the changes in Wu State were even greater. After Emperor Wu was rescued, he fled all the way from Andu and was wanted by An Guo. The mission suffered heavy casualties, but in the end they successfully rescued Emperor Wu safely to Wu State, and Ning Yuanzhou and the others He also successfully obtained Yang Xingyuan's imperial edict to rectify the name of Liudaotang.

However, when they were about to arrive in Wudu, a huge change occurred. Yang Xingyuan was assassinated, seriously injured and died, and the country of Wu fell into turmoil.

At the critical moment when the Wu Kingdom was fighting for the throne, King Danyang stood out, but before he could succeed, another accidental death occurred. It was finally discovered that the man behind the murder of Emperor Wu and King Danyang turned out to be the lame King of England. The King of England who was exposed was also executed by Queen Xiao with thunderous means during the resistance.

This incident was no less exciting than the incident in Anguo. Anguo still had a one-year-old third prince to succeed him, but the situation in Wuguo was better. All three members of Emperor Wu's generation were dead, and now only one was left. There is a child in Queen Xiao's belly, but no one can say whether the child is a boy or a girl.

The throne of Wu State was vacant, and the situation in the court was chaotic and unstable for a time. In the end, Zhang Xiang and Queen Xiao stood up at the same time, which temporarily stabilized the situation.

But the chaos was more than that. Wu Guo had already lost to An Guo, and its national power was damaged, and something like this happened again, which naturally attracted the prying eyes of its neighbors.

Chu State and Yan State stationed troops on the border at the same time, with a posture of attacking Wu State at any time, which made the entire Wu State even more unstable.

Ning Yuanzhou, who originally wanted to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, did not back down before the national disaster and led Liudaotang to start fighting again.

In the end, Chu State did launch a war against Wu State, while Yan State stood still. I don't know whether it was not ready to go to war, or whether it wanted to reap the benefits.

At a time when the country was in chaos, Empress Xiao gave birth to a prince. Zhang Xiang and others supported the newborn prince to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Empress Xiao listened behind the curtain and sat in charge of the harem.

After listening to what Ren Ruyi said, Zhou Chen was amazed in his heart. His appearance indeed brought great changes to the world.

However, he didn't think too much and continued to work on their own business, establishing Langya Pavilion.

One year later, Langya Pavilion slowly developed in the country. Two years later, Langya Pavilion had established many strongholds in the Nine Kingdoms, and the name of Langya Pavilion was slowly spread in the world.

During this period, Zhou Chen went to Wudu and met Ning Yuanzhou and the others again, and took Yuan Lu away afterwards.

Because Yuan Lu's condition was getting worse and worse, Zhou Chen's internal strength had a great effect on him, so Ning Yuanzhou and the others asked Yuan Lu to follow Zhou Chen in the future, and Zhou Chen also passed on Yuan Lu Yangzhou Man's cultivation method.

In the third year, the foreign tribes in Beipan withdrew because Anguo and Wuguo had not been peaceful in recent years. Although there were troops from the two countries stationed at Tianmen Pass, Beipan dispatched a large scale this time, and Tianmen Pass held on for half a month. In the end, he was not blocked and was invaded by Beipan into the Central Plains.

Anguo and Wuguo faced Beipan's invasion. At this time, they ignored their old grudges and united to face the enemy.

After several years of development, Langya Pavilion has become quite powerful. Facing Beipan's invasion, Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi also led people to join the Anguo and Wuguo coalition forces to jointly resist Beipan's army.

Because they had connections with the top leaders of both Anwu and Anwu, in the end the coalition forces of Anwu and Anwu, coordinated by Zhou Chen as the military advisor, went through several months of battles and annihilated most of the invading Beipan army, as well as the remaining Beipan remnants. He was driven out of Tianmen Pass.

Because of this battle, the name of Langya Pavilion spread throughout the Nine Kingdoms, and Zhou Chen, the master of Langya Pavilion, became a famous figure in the world of Nine Kingdoms.

Zhou Chen and Ren Ruyi did what they said back then, traveling around the world, doing justice and helping the people, making the reputation of Langya Pavilion more and more famous. Later, they also created the Langya List, ranking the world's martial arts list, the world's richest list, etc. The Langya List has also become the most prestigious list in the Nine Kingdoms.

At the same time, Zhou Chen did not disappoint Ren Ruyi, and the two gave birth to their own children......
