Zhou An led a few eunuchs to the front yard. After passing the archway leading to the middle yard, he saw Wu Xukuan who had already entered.

Wu Xukuan dressed very well, and he came alone, so he brought a large group of people.

There are more than 40 people in total, of which more than 20 are in the Earth Evil Realm.

There are four generals of the first rank alone, and more of them have titles.

Zhou An also saw many retired generals, all in their seventies or eighties. They had just retired for a few years. Although they were old, they were in the Earth Evil Realm after all, and their strength was still strong.

Wu Xukuan is trying to make a difference.

Even some old guys who hadn't gone out for many years came, and Zhou An could see the murderous aura on them.

It must be that someone will not be able to leave the Duke Xian’s Mansion alive.

Zhou An quickly glanced and found that there were two important figures missing around Wu Xukuan.

One is Yang Hongsheng, who is a veteran of a hundred wars. When Wu Xukuan left the army and joined the court as the Minister of State, he took away a group of veterans of a hundred wars from the army, all of which were his personal guards.

Yang Hongsheng is Wu Xukuan's personal guard captain. He is in his fifties this year and has a perfect realm of Earth Demons.

He is known as Wu Xukuan's right-hand man and his most trusted subordinate!

There is another important figure, Wu Ailong!

Wu Ailong was the admiral of the Qianjing Military and Horse Governor's Office, and was the immediate superior of the four cities of Qianjing City. At the same time, he was also the commander of the Wu Cavalry Army and controlled the only independent cavalry army in Qianjing City.

He has another identity, Wu Xukuan's adopted son!

Wu Xukuan's biological sons were not in Qianjing City. When he planned to rebel, he sent all his sons away and served in the local army. He did not want his family to become his own shackle.

So in Qianjing City, Wu Ailong can be said to be Wu Xukuan's closest person.

He is also the number one master under Wu Xukuan in Qianjing. He is said to be perfect in Earth Demons, but in fact he is half a step into Tiangang!

Wu Xukuan created such a big battle, and even the old guys who had retired had moved out, but they lacked two important figures, Yang Hongsheng and Wu Ailong. It was obvious... they already had a task and must be doing something.

The yard was surrounded by Tiance Army soldiers.

Although there were only 500 Tiance troops left in the Duke of Xianguo's Mansion, they were only guarding a mansion, and there were still many 500 people, and there were people everywhere who could stand.

Zhou An could see that they were all nervous.

Standing there with a spear in his hand, his hands holding the spear tightened.

No one can guarantee that when Zhou An and Wu Xukuan approach, will they start a life-and-death battle?

Zhou An brought people to greet him.

"Mr. Wu Ge, at this late at night, our family is planning to close the door to thank the guests. Why are you here at this time?" Zhou An spoke in a tight voice.

Zhou An was very polite when others came to pay homage to Kang Longji. No matter how big or small the official position is, Zhou An represented Kang Longji's relatives. This is the rule.

But he was too lazy to be polite to Wu Xukuan.

"You don't know why this marquis came?" Wu Xukuan said as he walked forward.

The two approached and stopped at the same time.

The people behind the two stopped at the same time.

There are many people in Wu Xukuan and it feels very oppressive.

Although there were few people on Zhou An, Zhou An was not afraid at all. Bai Xiaokui, who was disguised as a disguise, lowered her head, but was ready to take action.

"Why did you come? Is it to kill our family?" Zhou An's words made everyone feel energetic.

Even the old guys who were following Wu Xukuan who had been through the strong winds and waves were calmed down.

The atmosphere solidified instantly.

Just wait for Wu Xukuan to speak.

If Wu Xukuan takes action, it will be a bloody storm immediately!

"Mr. Zhou is joking. You and I are both important officials in the court. How can we fight and kill?" Wu Xukuan relaxed his expression and smiled at Zhou An, and he respected Zhou An quite respectful.

He will definitely do it!

Zhou An can be sure, certain!

It's just not now.

Wu Xukuan has always respected his opponents very much, but there are really too few people who can be regarded as his opponent.

Now he regards Zhou An as an opponent.

He wants to kill Zhou An!

"This marquis brought all the generals to mourn General Kang Longjikang. General Kang spent his whole life trying his best to the court. Although this marquis is separated from him, he has been an official in the same dynasty for decades..."

While Wu Xukuan was speaking, some special noises came around the mansion.

The sound was not loud, but most of the people present were experts and could hear it.

This is the sound of the Tiance Army mobilizing and deploying.

This reaction was naturally as Wu Xukuan expected. He was prepared for it and did not take it seriously.

After hearing Wu Xukuan's words, Zhou An's expression remained unchanged and said directly: "Since it is a condolence, then please."

Wu Xukuan led a crowd to the intermediate court.

Zhou An and others naturally walked with them, but kept a certain distance from them.

The main room of the intermediate courtyard.

Mourning Hall.

Wu Xukuan was the first to pay his respects to Kang Longji. He really paid condolences according to the rules, bowed and burned incense.

This is certainly delaying time!

According to Wu Xukuan's plan, he came here first instead of going straight to kill the empress. There are several reasons. The first is that he really wanted to kill Zhou An, and he didn't want the second Kanglongi to appear!

The abilities and means that Zhou An has shown now have surpassed Kanglongi in some aspects.

Zhou An was uneasy if he didn't die.

If Zhou An did not die after killing the empress, if Zhou An escaped from Qianjing and went to Rongcheng in the north to assist Princess Yunjing ascend the throne... this can be said to be endless troubles!

Of course, this is not the entire reason why Wu Xukuan came here first.

There are other reasons, such as Zhou An is easy to kill!

Killing Zhou An is dozens of times easier than killing the Queen!

There is no difficulty at all!

The most important reason why Wu Xukuan came here was to encourage the empress to divide the troops!

There is no doubt that when Wu Xukuan comes to the Duke of Xianguo's mansion, the empress will receive news immediately. The empress must know what Wu Xukuan is going to do. Should she protect Zhou An? Should she protect Kang Longji's body?

The importance of Zhou An to the empress is self-evident. It can even be said that if it weren't for Zhou An, Wu Xukuan's rebellion had succeeded! It would not have been delayed until today!

If she wants to protect her, it would be too late to transfer troops from other places, so she could only divide her troops from her side.

As a result, the power around the empress will be weakened.

In order to kill the empress, Wu Xukuan can be said to have made many preparations.

He came to the Duke of Xianguo's Mansion, just part of the plan.

Wu Xukuan followed the steps to complete his condolences to Kanglongi, and then walked outside the door.

The others stepped forward and condolenced Kanglongi one by one.

Zhou An stood outside the door with a "little eunuch", ten feet away from Wu Xukuan. He should have given greetings to the people who mourned Kang Longji in the mourning hall, but he did not.

There are other old eunuchs representing Kang Longji's family, so it's okay if Zhou An doesn't do it.

He did it before.

If you don’t do it now, you will naturally have to focus on Wu Xukuan.

Start now?

Zhou An is not in a hurry either!

The arrangement of the Tiance Army also takes time. Although he could guess that Wu Xukuan was delaying the time, he also needs time.

The more time you have, the more you prepare.

For a moment, it was very quiet outside the mourning hall.

A full cup of tea has passed.

Sudden!

Bang! Wow!

A ray of red light flew up from the distant sky, exploded into destructive fireworks in the night sky. The fireworks were generally red, but had a little golden color.

fireworks!

It's actually a signal flare!

The signal flare of the Shence Army, this signal flare with golden color, represents the empress in danger!

This is a signal flare to save the car.

Wu Xukuan also looked up at the direction of the fireworks, his eyes were slightly blurred, and then he turned his eyes to Zhou An.

Zhou An also looked at Wu Xukuan.

"Kill!" The two of them spoke at the same time and said the same word.

kill!
Chapter completed!
