Chapter 1006 On New Year's Eve, Killing Your Father (Part 2)
Sun Yong was in high spirits today. After returning to the bedroom, he had no intention of resting. He only let the palace maids and eunuchs accompanying him go back alone, leaving Wei Tang beside him. After talking a few gossips, he suddenly smiled and said, "Wei Tang, you have been with me for more than 40 years, right?"
Wei Tang thought about it carefully before replying: "It's been forty-two years and nine months since the saint. At that time, I was just a little eunuch who knew nothing. If it weren't for the saint, you think I was pitiful and kept by my side, how could I have today?"
"Haha, you were already a master in the palace at that time. It was the emperor who thought that I, the prince, lacked a useful talent, so he arranged for you for me..." Sun Yong seemed to remember all the things he had with his confidant when he was in his prime, and he was a little stunned.
Wei Tang just stood by the side with apologized and did not comment on it. He only whispered after waiting for a while: "Sage, it's not too late this day. I'll go to the Taimiao to worship my ancestors tomorrow. Why not rest now?"
"I have lie down enough a few days ago, and I really have no intention of sleeping today." Sun Yong waved his hand again and said, "By the way, do you still remember the incident when you played chess with me?"
"This..." Wei Tang showed a hint of embarrassment, "Sage, are you going to have me play chess with you again? But this day..."
"But I remember that you refused to play chess with me at the beginning and did not want to play chess with me until I issued an order to you, and you had to obey the order. Why, do you want me to give you another order today?" Sun Yong said, and suddenly he looked up.
Wei Tang didn't dare to refuse and agreed, and agreed quietly: "I will accompany the saint to the next plate. But I also asked the saint to put the dragon body first, so I will put the next plate..."
"Yes, but you have to agree to me, don't let it go, just let it go." Sun Yong made his insistence again, which made Wei Tang a little stunned, and still agreed helplessly. Then, he went to the side to get the chessboard and chess pieces. The two of them played not Go, but more direct chess.
After setting up the chess pieces, the master and servant drove up to the ground. In a short while, it was already difficult to solve, and time continued to pass. Only the dark night outside and the whistle and whistle the north wind reminded them that it was the cold winter New Year's Eve.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew on the window, causing the lights in the warm cabinet to dim a little. This made Wei Tang's eyebrows, which were originally looking down at the chessboard, jumped, but his hands did not hesitate too much, and he steadily jumped a horse forward, forming a clampdown on the cannon that Sun Yong crossed the river.
Then, taking advantage of the emperor's stumping by this move, Chen Ning slowly stood up and whispered: "Sage, I have lost my companion for a moment..."
The emperor was putting all his thoughts on the chess game, and he heard this and just nodded casually: "Come back soon."
"Yes." Wei Tang responded lightly, then silently came to the door, pushed the door open and closed it, looking into the corridor ahead, which was strangely quiet and strange. At this time, he did not look like a servant who was cautious in front of the emperor. His dark old eyes were shining brightly, and his face looked even more solemn.
In a few steps, I had already passed through the corridor, and my eyes swept, and I said coldly: "Who dares to break into the palace?" A slightly low voice spread from afar, but suppressed the wind around me.
As he asked, the two of them flashed out from the archway in front and behind. When they saw the man in front, Wei Tang was also stunned: "Your Highness the Prince..." He really didn't expect that the current prince would be the one who broke into the harem late at night.
The prince ignored him and only looked at Qu Wangyang, who was half a step behind him. The latter understood and immediately stepped forward. As his figure spread, he was already running towards Wei Tang. While running, his hand was already carried by his waist, and a cold light flashed. A strange-looking short knife was unsheathed in his hand. Following his forward momentum, he quickly slashed towards Wei Tang!
Wei Tang's eyes shrank even more, and then he laughed strangely: "What is the prince doing?" At the same time, the man also rushed up like a big bird and rushed towards the sword light.
With a sound, his palms closed and he was just stuck on the sword light. Although it was a pair of fleshy palms, it collided with the short sword, but it made a sound of metal and iron. At the same time, he turned and twisted his palms, which meant to take the sword away from the other party's hands.
But while he exerted his force, Qu Wangyang's hand also changed. As his wrist turned, the knife suddenly turned around while Wei Tang's grasp. The blade had quickly cut to his palm. At the same time, a sharp light on his head was stimulated, making Wei Tang dare not snatch his sharpness, so he could only let go quickly and retreat.
Swish—A sword light burst out at this moment, just cutting it on the guardrail in the corridor next to it, cutting the guardrail made of mahogany into two sections. Qu Wangyang's movement did not stop there, and his body had already rushed out again. The sword light was slashed straight towards Wei Tang, almost wrapping him up in this sword light.
Even with Wei Tang's strength, he could only keep retreating to avoid being injured. At the same time, he stared at the other party's actions with his eyes tightly. He was still a little lucky. Fortunately, he realized that there was an assassin outside and came out to see it. Otherwise, if the assassin really made the saint break into the saint, he might not be able to fully protect the saint when the sword lights up.
It’s a pity that I haven’t met a decent opponent for many years and no longer get used to carrying weapons with me. Now I’m naked and can’t take this terrible swordsman for a while. Thinking in my heart, he couldn’t stop retreating. When he thought, there was always a time when such a sharp and fierce sword move was unsustainable, and it would be time for him to fight back again...
But then, the situation was a little unexpected. With Wei Tang's only defending but not attacking, Qu Wangyang completely used his extraordinary sword technique. He was as if it were like the waves of the sea, layer by layer, one wave higher than another, and there was no sign of exhaustion and stagnation at all.
Moreover, as the sword technique continued to be used, the damage caused was getting bigger and bigger. Most of the guardrails and wood and stones around him had been destroyed. Under the pressure of several fierce sword techniques, Wei Tang could not retreat any further. He was forced to leave the corridor in front of the warmer pavilion and come to an even more empty place.
As a result, Wei Tang was able to deal with these sword lights more and more calmly, but his face became extremely gloomy, because he discovered that at this moment, the prince, who had already retreated to the distance, had taken the opportunity to strode towards the emperor's bedroom along the corridor.
What exactly do they want to do?
Wei Tang actually had an answer in his heart, the answer that was enough to scare 90% of the people in the world. This naturally made him very nervous and immediately wanted to stop him, but Qu Wangyang was determined to block his way at this time. The sword move that had originally opened and closed suddenly changed, became denser and surrounded him completely.
In this way, if Wei Tang really wants to break out without hesitation, he will be afraid that he will splatter five steps on the spot. Even if he doesn't die, he will be seriously injured. This makes him choose to dodge and want to use light body skills to break through, but he is all defended by Qu Wangyang.
It was not until this time that Wei Tang truly realized that this silent swordsman was far more powerful than he had made before. His attainment in swordsmanship was no less than any master of swordsmanship in the world. But he was just like himself, because he was often by the prince's side and had a rare opportunity to take action, so he could not become famous in the world, so no one knew how powerful he was.
But because of this, what are the strengths and shortcomings of his swords, it is also confusing to touch the mind, which makes Wei Tang only try to break the siege of the sword net through repeated temptations, but every time, he has failed. In order to break the siege as soon as possible, he even took risks several times, but in the end he had several more sword injuries and had to give up.
When he is old, he is still old... Wei Tang sighed helplessly in his heart.
Some of the emperor's words and expressions just now made him think like this. The current situation means that he is actually the same. At least in martial arts, he has gradually lost his edge and lost his oppression to the enemy because of his old age.
But he knew better that he could no longer delay. The prince had passed and might have come to the saint. What the prince would do next is probably obvious. Since he dared to break into the harem in such a late night, he would have no worries and had to make that last try!
"Xiao--" A sharp roar erupted from Wei Tang's mouth. At the same time, his body speed increased again, and several phantoms appeared in the air and flew straight in three directions.
This was his all-out move, not to hurt the enemy, but to get rid of the opponent's entanglement. At the same time, this scream was also to summon other people in the palace.
Originally, Wei Tang had no intention of disturbing more people. After all, this was the prince's intention to be unfavorable to the saint, and it was not a good thing after all. He was thinking about asking the saint what he meant before making a decision. But now, the situation is critical, but he can't care about it.
He even deliberately let the roar come out of the bedroom and to the front, hoping to attract the imperial guards who were patrolling the night. As soon as the troops arrived, no matter how strong the other party was, he would have to surrender.
But the subsequent development was beyond his expectations again. After the roar, the bedroom was still quiet. Not to mention the imperial guards in front of him, even the eunuchs and palace maids came to protect him. It was as if the bedroom was completely isolated from the others at this moment, and only the four of them were still here.
What's going on?
Just when he was full of doubt, the sword light flashed in front of him again, and a more dazzling light burst out, but it snatched his throat.
Wei Tang's seemingly clever clone escape was discovered by Qu Wangyang at one glance, and he caught the flaw and slashed with a quick knife!
