  Zhang Yi changed into a light yellow dress, and hastily put on some makeup in front of the copper mirror to cover up her pale and tired face. Then she followed the hurried soldier outwards. This book is updated in time, please log in [56 Bookstore]

  As she sat up in the carriage, she hastily asked: "Where are Cheng Shi and the others? Can they be called over too?"

  "The princess is absolutely right, I've already gone to call them." The man didn't say that apart from Cheng Shi and a few others, more than 100 of Langling Wang's guards had died in this battle.

  At this time, tens of miles outside the city, the sound of killing shook the sky, causing the ground to rumble. But on the city wall of Luoyang, there was an eerie silence.

  Zhang Gui arrived at the North City Gate.

  At the North City Gate, three or four thousand soldiers stood motionless, their faces etched with fatigue, every one of them covered in scars, and bloodshot eyes. Yet at this moment, everyone's eyes shone brightly, as if once the gate opened, they would charge out and slaughter all the people around.

  The dark and thin Prince of Luoyang was waiting for Zhang Gui at the city gate. Seeing her coming, he hurriedly walked up to meet her. Just a few steps away, a burst of footsteps came, and it was Cheng Shi and others who had also arrived.

  When arriving at the city gate, one can see the fierce battle unfolding before their eyes.

  Luoyang Wang walked behind Zhang Gui, his voice trembling with excitement, "It's possible that our reinforcements have arrived, or it could be the Zhou people using a desperate trick after being unable to capture us for so long."

  As he said this, he looked at Zhang Gui. All along, he had a conviction, or rather, all the generals of Luoyang had a conviction. Even if Gao Zhan decided to abandon Luoyang City, Gao Changgong would still come because his beloved wife, Zhang Shi, was here. He would definitely come to rescue her.

  Zhang Qi stood on the city wall, gazing out at the rolling dust and the surging army that seemed to stretch as far as the sea. Her heart beat faster and her hands clenched into fists.

  It's not just her. At this moment, everyone standing on the city wall is holding their breath. They are all staring down at the scene below with rapt attention.

  At last, from the surging army ranks, a team of black-clad and black-armored knights broke out. These knights held black spears, their horses galloping wildly, kicking up clouds of dust that shot straight towards the North City Gate. As these men charged out, a shrill cry erupted from the surrounding ranks. Many Zhou soldiers wanted to rush over, but were entangled in battle.

  Closer, closer, getting closer!

  Bang bang bang, Zhang Qi's heart was racing fast. So fast that her eyes were dizzy, so fast that her stomach was tightening in waves!

  The Black Armor Knights were not many, only about five hundred. But those five hundred people, the smoke and dust they kicked up while running, the momentum that rose to the sky, was like thousands of horses and soldiers, the "rumbling" sound of the horse hooves trampling the ground, was even more in sync with everyone's heartbeat, causing many people to be unable to stand still.

  Luoyang Wang's throat was also dry. He whispered to Zhang Qi, "Princess of Langling, look at this attire, if it's not beyond expectation, it should be the personal guard of King Langling. You'll see clearly later!"

  He pointed behind the five hundred cavalry and shouted: "Princess, look! The Zhou army is closing in. They are only a little over 300 meters away. If these people are Zhou's men in disguise, it would be like inviting wolves into our home, you and I will both die without a place to bury our bodies!"

  Zhang Qi knew the severity of it, she swallowed her saliva, nodded heavily and replied in a clear voice: "I know!"

  "Good!" After saying this word, the King of Luoyang did not say much more, but instead stared intently at the 500 cavalry rushing towards him. He just waited for confirmation that they were genuine, and then immediately opened the city gate wide, went out to kill, and surrounded the reinforcements from inside and outside, forming a joint attack on the Zhou people!

  Thirty days of bitter struggle, life and death will be decided at this moment!

  So his hand was raised in mid-air, and not far away, a drummer even held the drumstick high, waiting for the strike!

  Five hundred riders getting closer and closer.

  The momentum of these five hundred riders was magnificent, they came with a dust-raising, overwhelming and all-conquering aura that could sweep away everything. They were unstoppable!

  Getting closer and closer!

  When the heartbeat of the crowd accelerated to an uncontrollable extent, this dense black cavalry finally stopped under the city wall. With a long drink of "hiss——", five hundred figures suddenly stopped, and the smoke and dust they splashed up were still lingering, but people had already stood there like mountains.

  Five hundred riders stopped at once, then split into two neat rows. From the middle walked out a tall figure, also dressed in black clothes, black armor and holding a black spear. The man wore a ferocious mask, looking up with his head raised.

  At the sight of the approaching figure, King Luoyang let out a loud roar: "Who comes?" Due to his complete lack of sleep, his voice was hoarse to the extreme, but this loud roar still sounded very deep and powerful.

  That man in black with a mask raised his head to look at the city wall, he stared in Zhang Qi's direction for a moment, then raised his right hand and chopped down! As soon as he made this gesture, more than ten men simultaneously shouted loudly: "My master is Langling Wang Gao Changgong!"

  Although everyone had guessed, the arrival would be Gao Changgong. However, when these people said it with their own mouths, the crowd still burst into cheers. But this cheer was suppressed and endured.

  Luoyang Wang suppressed his excitement and ordered: "Take off your mask!"

  The man in black heard this and slowly took off his ferocious mask!

  As the mask was lifted, a handsome face appeared before everyone's eyes. This face, as bright as the moon and radiant as the dawn, is unparalleled in the world, and no one can imitate it, nor has anyone ever dared to impersonate it!

  Behind him were five hundred black cavalry, hundreds of meters away, Zhou soldiers came rolling in, smoke and dust filled the sky, corpses and dead horses covered the ground. This noble and handsome young king, for a moment, took off his mask to reveal his face, making the people of Luoyang who had been rescued from desperation feel boundless respect, wild joy, and fervent love!

  As soon as his face was revealed, a burst of cheers erupted from all directions. Amidst the cheers, hundreds and thousands of people shouted in unison: "Langling Wang——"

  "The King of Lanling"

  "King of Lanling!!"

  In the midst of the deafening cheers and shouts, Luoyang City was in an uproar. Countless civilians rushed out of their homes, and the gates of the Luoyang Palace were wide open. Empress Hu rushed out with her hair disheveled, running while crying out: "Is it Gao Changgong who has arrived? Is it Gao Changgong who has arrived?"

  In boundless ecstasy, Zhang Qi also trembled with a loud cry: "Chang Gong, it's really Chang Gong..." She had recognized him as soon as they arrived, but she deeply knew that this matter was too important, and she couldn't casually speak out to affect the judgment of the Luoyang King. Sure enough, after he removed his mask, everyone went wild with excitement.

  Zhang Yi's cry was drowned out as soon as it left his mouth. The overjoyed Luoyang Wang looked up at the sky and let out a long whistle, his right hand chopping down heavily!

  As he made this gesture, "Zhi zhi" sound, the North Gate was opened. In the midst of the drumbeat "Dong dong - dong", thousands of exhausted city guards suddenly felt their fatigue disappear, and they rode out of Luoyang City on horseback!

  Once the internal and external siege situation is formed, it means that the great trend of Zhou has gone. In Luoyang, Wang's hoarse voice continuously gave orders, and the cavalry rushed towards the Zhou army's camp. The ground trembled as the cavalry ran, causing Zhang Gui's legs to weaken. Cheng Shi quickly stepped forward, supporting Zhang Gui, and said in a low voice: "Madam, are you uncomfortable?"

  Zhang Qi nodded and said with tears of joy: "I'm fine."

  "Madam, let me escort you back to the Wang Manor."

  The city head was shaking slightly, and Zhang Hui couldn't stand still. Cheng Shi, wearing armor on his body, simply turned his head, handed over the leadership to a lieutenant, and supported Zhang Hui as they walked down.

  Zhang Qi was overjoyed and her legs went soft, she leaned on Cheng Shi's body, step by step they descended from the city wall.

  At this time, the whole city of Luoyang was in a state of frenzy.

  This great battle did not end until dusk. When Zhou's army had to withdraw its camp, the entire city of Luoyang was cheering and shouting!

  As the sun sets in the west, a black knight covered in blood reappears at the city gate. Seeing them, the people who had gathered spontaneously, without knowing who led them, all knelt down simultaneously!

  Tens of thousands of people knelt down to the ground, this scene is so shocking. Unconsciously, King Luoyang was stunned, the five hundred black knights who had just entered the city gate were stunned, Empress Hu was stunned, and everyone was stunned!

  In this boundless astonishment, suddenly, a clear and gentle female voice shouted at the top of her lungs, using all her strength to cry out: "Thank you for your imperial kindness!"

  Her voice startled Cheng Shi, and he also shouted loudly: "Thank you for your majesty's great kindness!" Then, the black knights jumped off their horses one after another. The King of Lanling led them to kneel in the direction of Jinyang and shouted: "Thank you for your majesty's great kindness!"

  With this opening, nearly 100,000 kneeling Luoyang citizens also shouted in unison: "Thank you for your imperial kindness!"

  "Thank you for your imperial kindness!"

  In the midst of earth-shaking and thunderous cheers, the crowd that had just frozen in place began to laugh, and Empress Hu and Prince Luoyang also burst into laughter.

  Just as everyone was welcoming Langling Wang, Langling Wang turned his head and fixedly looked towards the place where the soft and gentle female voice came from.

  There she stood, tall and slender, her face alight with joy. Seeing him approach, she slowly removed her veil, tears of happiness streaming down her face as she rushed to greet him.

  Seeing her safe and sound, Langling Wang burst out laughing, he strode quickly, in a few steps he rushed to Zhang Qi's face.

  Zhang Yi didn't not want to run, she just felt very uncomfortable in her stomach lately and had no strength to run. Seeing Lang Ling Wang coming over, she smiled with a "giggle", but tears rolled down!

  Right at this moment!

  Suddenly, a cold arrow shot through the sky from the left rear of Langling Wang and swooshed towards Langling Wang's left leg!

  The arrowhead was a deep black, and in the sunlight it gave off a gloomy green light. Anyone who saw it would immediately think: this arrow is poisonous! It's highly toxic!

  The arrow came like lightning, extremely fast and accurate. Amidst the city's celebration, when everyone was relaxed, it was as if entering a deserted territory!

  No one could have imagined this scene. The cheers were still echoing, and Langling Wang was still walking towards Zhang Qi with big strides!

  Zhang Qi's eyes met his, and she saw the poisonous arrow flying towards her. In an instant, her pupils contracted, and amidst boundless terror, there was also boundless calmness.

  She let out a loud cry, and her frail body suddenly ran like flying, in the blink of an eye, she had rushed to Lanling King's side. The delighted Lanling King was about to stretch out his arms to hug her, but Zhang Gui suddenly pushed him away, then threw herself at that arrow!
