Heroes of Troubled Times: Chronicles of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms

The Queen Mother and the mysterious figure looked at each other nervously, and they both realized the seriousness of the situation.

"We must evacuate immediately!" the mysterious figure whispered.

However, just as they were about to act, the men in black had broken in and surrounded them.

"You have nowhere to escape, just surrender!" the leading man in black said coldly.

A trace of determination flashed in the eyes of the Grass King Fairy. She quickly performed the art of grass and trees, and the surrounding plants suddenly grew wildly, trying to block the attack of the men in black.

Qiu Wancai sprinkled the potion in his hand on the men in black, trying to make them lose their fighting power.

Yao Dahai took advantage of the chaos to throw poison at the men in black, and for a while, the scene was in chaos.

Ren Chunying jumped down from the beam and used her light skills to shuttle between the men in black, trying to find a chance to escape.

The Queen Mother and the mysterious figure leaned against each other tightly, their eyes full of determination and resoluteness.

"We can't just give up. For Emperor Zhaozong and the Tang Dynasty, we must fight to the end!" said the Queen Mother.

The mysterious figure nodded, and he drew out the soft sword hidden at his waist, ready to fight to the death with the man in black.

Just then, the bell in the palace suddenly rang, the celebration was about to begin, and the guards in the palace began to gather here.

The men in black saw this and knew that time was running out. They stepped up their offensive and tried to get rid of the members of the secret alliance before the guards arrived.

However, the members of the secret alliance did not give up. They used their special abilities to fight fiercely with the men in black.

In the shadows of the palace, the men in black were like ghosts in the night, their movements were swift and deadly. Although the members of the secret alliance tried their best to resist, they fell one after another under the siege carefully planned by the men in black.

Grass King Fairy, although her grass and wood skills can temporarily block the attack of the men in black, it can't last. In a fierce confrontation, she was attacked from behind by a man in black, and a sword pierced her heart. Her body slowly fell down, her eyes full of unwillingness.

Qiu Wancai, although his potion can temporarily make the men in black lose their combat effectiveness, there are too many men in black. In a melee, he was attacked by several men in black at the same time, the potion bottle was broken, his body was cut by a sharp blade, and finally fell in a pool of blood.

Yao Dahai, although his poison is powerful, he can't find the right time to use it under the tight defense of the men in black. In a breakout, he was besieged by the men in black, the poison bottle was overturned, and he himself was accidentally poisoned and fell to the ground in pain.

Ren Chunying, although her light skills allowed her to shuttle freely among the men in black, she couldn't escape the pursuit of the men in black. During one of her jumps, she was hit by a dart thrown by a man in black. She lost her balance in the air and fell heavily to the ground.

The Queen Mother and the mysterious man were tightly together, but they gradually became exhausted in the face of the fierce attack of the man in black.From the heart. In a desperate resistance, the queen mother was stabbed from the side by a man in black. Her body trembled and she finally fell into the arms of the mysterious man.

The mysterious man, although his soft sword danced impenetrably, gradually became tired under the continuous attacks of the men in black. In a fatal confrontation, he was attacked by several men in black at the same time, his soft sword was shot down, and his body was pierced by the sharp blade. His eyes were full of reluctance and anger, and he finally fell in a pool of blood.

After completing their mission, the men in black quickly evacuated the scene, leaving corpses and blood all over the ground. When the guards in the palace arrived, it was too late.

After Zhu Wen learned the news of the victory of the men in black, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He knew that the collapse of the secret alliance meant that his power would be more stable and his ambitions would be more unimpeded.

Deep in the palace, 13-year-old Li Zhu sat on the dragon throne, his eyes revealing a kind of confusion and helplessness that was inconsistent with his age. Although he was wearing a dragon robe, his heart was blank, and he knew nothing about how to govern this huge empire.

Empress He sat beside him, her face full of worry. She gently held Li Zhu's hand, trying to give him some comfort, but her hand was shaking slightly, showing her inner fear.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Queen He whispered.

Li Zhu shook his head blankly, his voice trembling with a hint of trembling: "I don't know, I really don't know."

Just then, the eunuch in the palace hurried in, with an anxious look on his face: "Your Majesty, things are not going well. Zhu Wen's power is getting stronger and stronger, and our situation is getting more and more dangerous."

Li Zhu and Queen He looked at each other, and they both saw the panic in each other's eyes.

"We must find a way, otherwise our lives will really be difficult to save." Queen He said.

Li Zhu nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down: "We have to find someone who can help us."

Empress He thought about it, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "By the way, we can find those officials who are loyal to the Tang Dynasty, they may be able to help us."

Li Zhu nodded, and he immediately ordered the eunuch to summon those loyal officials.

Soon, several officials hurried over, all with serious expressions on their faces.

"Your Majesty, our current situation is indeed very dangerous, but it is not hopeless." An old official said.

Li Zhu asked anxiously: "What should we do then?"

The old official hesitated for a moment, then said: "We can unite with other forces to fight against Zhu Wen together."

Empress He interrupted: "But how do we know which forces are reliable?"

The old official smiled slightly: "We can find out their true intentions through some secret channels."

Li Zhu nodded, he thought this plan was feasible: "Then let's do it."

So, a secret allianceThe alliance action began. With the help of officials, Li Zhu and Queen He began to contact those forces that might become allies.

In the process, they encountered various challenges and difficulties, but they did not give up.

In a secret meeting late at night, Li Zhu said to the officials present: "We must act carefully. Zhu Wen's ears and eyes are all over the palace. Any small negligence may cause our plan to fail."

Queen He added: "We have made some progress, but Zhu Wen's power is still strong. We can't take it lightly."

Officials agreed one after another, and they all saw the dawn of hope.

However, just when they were about to make a breakthrough, an unexpected news came that Zhu Wen had learned of their plan and was planning a bigger conspiracy.

Li Zhu and Queen He sat in the dim palace, and both of them looked extremely solemn. Zhu Wen's ambition was like a dark cloud in the night sky, covering all the stars.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Wen has begun to act." Queen He's voice was trembling.

Li Zhu held the Queen's hand tightly, trying to convey a trace of comfort: "I know, we must find a way to deal with it."
