Chapter 566 Sniper Secret Guard
Chapter 566 Sniper Secret Guard
Having said that, Empress Dowager Yuan was extremely resentful.
She realized that all these things might not be coincidences, but a conspiracy carefully planned and arranged by Chu Yi and Yuan Jiuan.
Using photos and blood tests, she and the imperial teacher were brought to ruin, and they could never raise their heads again.
She used every possible means to create rifts between herself and the four great families, and watched them turn against each other and kill each other, while she sat back and reaped the benefits.
No wonder he hadn’t shown up even though he came back a long time ago.
He just wanted to use me to get rid of the people from the four major families for him.
It was only then that Empress Dowager Yuan realized that she and the heads of the four great families had already fallen into the trap set by Chu Yi, but they themselves did not realize it.
Chu Yi, this is obviously revenge against her!
Hua Feixue narrowed her eyes and said sarcastically: "Don't you know why this prince didn't show up?"
"You and I both know the answer to this question, so why are you pretending?"
"Your ministers are not here, so you can't act in front of them. Put away your hypocritical face!"
Empress Dowager Yuan felt a sharp pain in her head. She clenched her fists and said, "I have never acted before. In the two years since you were away, I have been managing the government despite my illness. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. Why is your Highness the Crown Prince so aggressive?"
Hua Feixue mercilessly mocked: "Merit? Are you referring to the merit of cheating on my grandfather and bringing shame to the royal family?"
"Hard work? Aren't you doing all this for yourself? You want to change the dynasty and let your son take over Chu's position. Have you asked for the opinions of the emperor and this prince?"
"Yuanshi, the things you did are beyond the reach of justice and cannot be written down in history. You harmed my father, killed my mother, and used tricks to harm so many of my Chu family's blood relatives. How can this prince forgive you?"
When Hua Feixue said this, a murderous look appeared in his eyes, and his hand holding the sword was shaking.
Sensing the danger, the secret guards hiding in the dark all appeared and stood in front of Empress Dowager Yuan.
Empress Dowager Yuan had a terrible headache at the moment, but she didn't think that Chu Yi could kill her.
In her opinion, Chu Yi doesn't know martial arts at all.
She felt from the bottom of her heart that the reason the other party was able to break into the palace was because Yuan Jiuan was helping him.
But Empress Dowager Yuan did not take these people seriously at all.
This is her territory, and she has 400,000 soldiers under her command, while they have less than 100,000 men. How can they be her opponent?
Seeing that the people led by Hua Feixue had already drawn their swords, Queen Mother Yuan frowned, what a bunch of idiots who overestimate their own abilities!
Is it worth working for a useless prince?
She glanced at the secret guards beside her and said with disdain: "Get rid of them for me, leaving no one alive."
In her opinion, she had already given Chu Yi a chance, and he came to her on his own initiative, so she couldn't be blamed!
Upon receiving the order, the secret guard immediately drew his sword and attacked quickly, while Empress Dowager Yuan turned around and prepared to return to her bedroom.
"boom!"
At this moment, a gunshot was heard, and the secret guard who was trying to assassinate Hua Feixue was shot away before he reached him.
As luck would have it, the secret guard's body fell right at the feet of Empress Dowager Yuan.
She subconsciously looked down, and this glance frightened her so much that she screamed, "Ah!"
It was because a big hole was shot through the center of the secret guard's forehead, and blood was still flowing out of it.
In less than a breath, his face was covered in blood and he was dead.
All the secret guards were frightened by this sudden scene.
They didn't hear any sound, nor did they feel any murderous aura. They didn't even notice who attacked them, and their accomplices were already dead.
Someone asked: "What kind of weapon is this? Why is it so powerful?"
Hua Feixue sneered, "Just surrender obediently, and maybe you can escape death."
Others may not know, but he knows very well that this must be related to Ji Yuntang.
However, Hua Feixue did not expect that this small bullet could be so powerful.
Killing a martial arts master was so easy and effortless.
The next second, another bullet came from a distance. A secret guard noticed this keenly. He used his internal strength to try to block it, but the speed of the bullet was faster than he imagined.
In an instant, his palm was shot through, and the bullet penetrated the palm of his hand and hit his chest. The secret guard fell to the ground with a "thump" and died with his eyes open.
All the secret guards: "!!!"
Empress Dowager Yuan: "!!!"
She knew better than anyone how skilled the secret guards around her were.
These people have all learned martial arts since childhood. She carefully selected them and kept them in the palace. It is no exaggeration to say that one can defeat a hundred.
But they didn't expect that they would be so vulnerable in front of this strange weapon.
It would be a lie for Empress Dowager Yuan to say she wasn't shocked.
Western Shu was already one of the most powerful weapons states, but she had never seen such a powerful weapon that could kill people in an instant.
She looked at Chu Yi with horror, and for the first time in her life, she felt fear.
If she guessed correctly, this person should be the helper Chu Yi found.
No wonder he dared to force the emperor to abdicate openly.
Empress Dowager Yuan was afraid that she would be the next person to be shot. She staggered into the house and said in panic:
"You stay here and don't let them in. You must find the person in the dark and get rid of him!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she ordered Aunt An, "Quick, close the door."
The door of the bedroom was closed. Ji Yuntang stood on the Phoenix Terrace and sneered softly.
"What a coward the old witch is!"
If Hua Feixue hadn't insisted on taking revenge herself, she would have shot the old witch in the head long ago.
Ji Yuntang aimed at the head and pulled the trigger, and soon another secret guard was shot dead.
In the next scene, she was like playing whack-a-mole, shooting every one she saw.
In an instant, half of the eighty-eight secret guards died.
Empress Dowager Yuan hid in her bedroom, listening to the gunshots outside.
Every time a gunshot was heard, she trembled, and even Nanny An beside her became extremely nervous.
"Empress Dowager, how about we hurry up and leave through the tunnel?"
For the sake of her own safety, Empress Dowager Yuan had an underground passage built inside her bedroom, leading directly to the outside of the palace.
She would never use it unless it was absolutely necessary.
She felt that running away was too cowardly, and she was not yet at the point of fleeing.
The sound of fighting outside was heard again, and she knew that it was her own men fighting against Yuan Jiuan's men.
