Survive, the rules of rebirth for the villain witch

Chapter 281 The Royal Guards' SOS Signal

boom……

In the night sky, a bright white firework bloomed below the imperial palace.

The brother and sister settled Shang and Yan, and just returned to Wushenhou Mansion, they saw someone setting off fireworks.

"It looks like it's heading towards the Imperial Palace." You Huang looked at the gradually fading fireworks and asked, "Is there any celebration in the palace tonight, setting off fireworks to celebrate?"

"The distress signal from the Imperial Guards..." Chu Yunhuan was stunned in the middle of his words, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Something happened in the palace, and they are sending a distress signal to the outside world. Huang'er, are you willing to go over and take a look?"

"Brother, do you want to go?" You Huang asked in return.

"Father is not in Tiandu, so my brother has to come to the rescue on behalf of the Wushen Houfu."

Chu Yunhuan answered helplessly. Youhuang thought for a moment and said, "Sister, go over and take a look first. Brother, go and recruit the troops and then go to the palace to help."

"Where did we get the soldiers?" Chu Yunhuan spread his hands helplessly. Youhuang smiled and said, "Why not call up the third and fourth brothers? Although we may not need them, it would be good to take them to see the excitement."

"It's a good idea, but forget it." Chu Yunhuan said calmly, "If anything goes wrong, it will be hard to explain to my second aunt."

"That's true..." You Huang thought for a moment and said, "It's better for Huang'er to go there first. If there is any problem, he can get out of it safely."

The empress now has ulterior motives. What if it is a trap to lure her brother in? Whether she kills him or accuses him of a crime, it will be detrimental to her father's plan.

"Brother knows that you have a good cultivation base, but there are always people better than you, so you must be careful."

As the legitimate son of Marquis Wushen, Chu Yunhuan naturally knew the concerns in his sister's heart. Everyone in Marquis Wushen's mansion was a pawn to restrain his parents, so he always thought twice before doing anything.

"Second brother, go in first, and I will set up a barrier to prevent anyone from breaking in." You Huang was not only worried that it was a trap, but also worried that the other party would make a feint to the east and attack in the west, set up a trap to lure her away, and then send people to attack the Wushenhou Mansion.

"You should go early and come back early too."

After Youhuang got off the carriage, Chu Yunhuan entered through the side door in a carriage.

After the side door slowly closed, Youhuang added another layer of magic to the original barrier to protect against ordinary people before flying towards the palace on his sword.

In front of the Imperial Palace's Council Hall.

The prince held a sword and protected the empress and Prince Yuan, watching the situation below intently.

In the square, the Royal Guards were besieging a green-haired fox that was taller than a cow. Rounds of arrows were shot down by the fox's thick tail.

There were more and more corpses on the ground, and the empress became more and more frightened.

The human race is too weak in the face of evil spirits. No wonder Chu Ce had to use almost all of his elite troops to deal with the demon army of Yinghuo Kingdom.

She has been really unlucky recently. Strange things have been happening frequently, the government is not helpful, and the people are becoming more and more dissatisfied with her. Could it be that the Fuguang Dynasty has really run out of luck?

The prince saw the empress's worry and comforted her, "Don't worry, mother. The commander of the imperial guards has sent out a distress signal. I think the princes will bring people to rescue you soon."

When the female official Ah Heng heard this, she immediately reminded him, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, according to my observation, this is a demon fox with profound Taoism. I'm afraid that ordinary troops will not be able to deal with it. Even if the court officials come to rescue you, I'm afraid it will be useless."

Ah Heng hesitated for a long time before speaking: "I heard that the daughter of the Marquis of Wushen is proficient in magic. Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to invite her? Perhaps this will help resolve the current crisis."

“Chu Youhuang has only been adopted by Fairy Xuehai for a few years and knows a little bit. How can he deal with the fox demon in front of us?” Thinking of his son’s academic performance in the palace being suppressed by Chu Youhuang, Prince Yuan objected without thinking.

Ah Heng looked at the Crown Prince helplessly, hoping that he could stand up and persuade his father.

The prince understood and said, "My mother and father may not know that Chu Youhuang's practice may not be enough to eliminate the fox demon, but she has a close relationship with the Tianji Pavilion. Maybe she can invite the monks from the Tianji Pavilion to help us eliminate the demon."

"The court has regulations that prohibit dealing with the Tianji Pavilion, but now you are actively asking them for help. Isn't this against the court's rules?"

Prince Yuan spoke again to stop him. The Crown Prince was unhappy but couldn't show it on his face. He said calmly, "The rule is that the dead are alive. In order to keep the rule, can we let the demon fox kill us all?"

"Ah Heng, pass on my order." After hearing her son's words, the empress immediately said, "Send people to the Tianji Pavilion and invite them to the palace to exorcise the monster. The reward and other things can be discussed."

"Mother Queen, the Wushen Marquis's Mansion is closer."

Before the prince had time to be happy, he heard the empress's order to seek the faraway place instead of the near one, and hurriedly reminded her.

The Empress said expressionlessly, "The Marquis Wushen and his wife are leading troops in the south to intimidate the Haoyue Nation. Chu Youhuang only knows a little bit of magic, but the demon fox is very skilled. If something goes wrong, how can I explain to the Marquis Wushen and his wife?"

If the prince did not know the reason behind it, he would definitely be very touched. However, it was obvious that the queen mother did not want to be criticized for her over-reliance on the Marquis of Wushen Mansion.

After thinking it over carefully, he spoke again, "I remember that there is a formation left by a cultivator to protect the Marquis of Wushen's mansion. No evil creatures can get in. Why don't I escort my mother and father to move there to avoid it?"

"Nonsense, if I leave the palace, won't I tell the world that I'm afraid of this monster?"

Upon hearing this, the empress flatly refused and looked firmly at the fox demon who was fighting with the royal guards in the square.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and he said calmly: "If someone can subdue the demon fox, I wonder if it can be made the guardian beast of our dynasty."

Upon hearing this discussion, His Royal Highness said without hesitation: "Mother, if you associate with inhuman things, you will eventually be harmed by them. If you think about what happened to Princess Shude, you will know that no matter whether it is a demon or a devil, it is beyond human control. Once it devours its master, there is no chance of survival."

"Your Highness, you are wrong..." Prince Yuan showed a strange expression and said, "Father, I heard that as long as you sign a contract with a demon, the two can not only share life and death, but also power. Once your mother possesses the power of a demon fox, who in the world dares to question her ability."

"Father, you..."

The prince felt something was wrong when he heard these discussions, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

The empress just glanced at him and said to Ah Heng, "What are you standing there for? Go and tell me my will."

Ah Heng responded and left in a hurry. When he was about to walk down the stairs, the fox swept its tail fiercely, and several royal guards were swept away. They fell heavily in front of the steps and never got up again. They couldn't help but retract their feet.

"Imperial guards, protect the emperor."

Ah Heng immediately called the imperial guards to stand in front of the empress.

After a moment's hesitation, she turned around and said, "Your Majesty, I will go from the back to avoid being noticed by the fox demon."

"Alright, wait a minute..." The empress agreed without even thinking about it, and suddenly called out, "Also send someone to the Marquis of Wushen's mansion to ask Chu Youhuang to come into the palace to protect the emperor."

"Yes, slave, I'll go right away."

Hearing this, Ah Heng was delighted and turned around to walk into the hall.

Suddenly she felt a chill on her shoulder, and when she turned her head, she saw a sword blade piercing her shoulder.
