I simply continued the performance and pointed the wooden sword at his throat: "It's in vain that I keep respecting you as my father.
You have never looked like a father.
How can you have the slightest care for me in your heart?"
Emperor Xinde stepped back step by step under my intimidation.
He said in horror: "Don't pester me.
I have been tortured by you for more than 20 years.
Why can't you let me go?"
I burst out laughing.
Emperor Xinde's pupils suddenly dilated and then narrowed again.
He seemed to hear something from my undisguised voice: "Yin Kong" and he suddenly shouted loudly: "Guard you, escort me" No one rushed to protect his safety.
The guards downstairs have been completely controlled by Zhao Xiaoyang.
Emperor Xinde's lips trembled as he said, "Are you a human or a ghost?"
I slowly took off the mask and said with a smile: "Father is so wise, can't you tell who I am?"
Emperor Xinde shook his head desperately: "It's impossible, it's impossible."
He finally understood what happened, but suddenly a smile appeared on his face: "Yinkong, I will draft an edict and pass the throne to you."
I smiled calmly and said, "You don't seem to be qualified to pass the throne to me."
Emperor Xinde looked at me puzzled.
I said coldly: "This throne should have belonged to my father.
If you hadn't designed to harm him, how could you have been allowed to sit in this position until today?"
Emperor Xinde roared angrily and suddenly rushed towards me desperately.
I threw away the wooden sword and punched him hard in the abdomen, all the hatred accumulated over the past twenty years was contained within it.
Emperor Xinde screamed in pain, his body shrunk to the ground, trembling uncontrollably, and said in a trembling voice: "Kill me if you dare, my treacherous son."
I knelt down with a smile and patted his shoulder: "Isn't it too cheap to let you die like this?
You have something that I must let you know."
Emperor Xinde felt regretful and anxious, and fainted for a while.
Lin Beifeng walked up from below, and I exchanged glances with him.
Lin Beifeng looked at Emperor Xinde who was unconscious on the ground, and there was still a hint of guilt in his eyes.
I whispered: "Father-in-law, if Mr.
Yuan hadn't sacrificed his life to save me, the child would have been killed by him at this moment."
Lin Beifeng sighed.
At this time, Zhao Xiaoyang came to us in a slightly panic and whispered: "The deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, Zhou Dezhi, took the opportunity of putting out the fire and led eight thousand Imperial Army soldiers to control the harem."
I was shocked.
The shock in Lin Beifeng's heart was not at all inferior to mine, and he said loudly: "How could Zhou Dezhi suddenly fall to the ground?"
Zhao Xiaoyang looked ashamed and said, "This is Xiaoyang's negligence."
What's the use of complaining now.
Fortunately, Emperor Xinde was shocked and was controlled by us.
The most critical thing at hand is to find out who is the master behind Zhou Dezhi.
Lin Beifeng said: "First find the imperial seal and then talk about it."
When I heard him mention this, my heart suddenly sank.
If the imperial seal fell into the hands of others.
The consequences may be disastrous.
A guard came over and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zuo has sent a letter to you."
I was slightly startled.
Zuo Zhuliu was well informed, and I had just started taking action.
He reacted over there.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Could it be that he had already guessed my plan?
The letter was not written to me, but to King Yi Lin Beifeng.
Lin Beifeng unfolded it and took a look, and his expression suddenly became extremely gloomy.
In a low voice: "The jade seal has fallen into the hands of Zuo Zhuliu.
He falsely accused me and Xiao Yang of treason, killed the prince, imprisoned Emperor Xinde, and wanted to make King Qin the emperor."
I sneered and said, "It seems that Zuo Zhuliu must know the news that I was sentenced to death by Emperor Xinde.
Even if we don't take action, he will take the opportunity to change the palace."
Lin Beifeng nodded and said: "He has always wanted to rebel, how could he let go of such a good opportunity?"
Zhao Xiaoyang regretted: "I should have treated this matter with caution.
When Zhou Dezhi took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the army to put out the fire, I should have noticed his conspiracy."
I smiled calmly and said: "The mantis stalking the cicada didn't know that the oriole was behind Suiliu, and his calculations this time were really clever."
Not to mention Zhao Xiaoyang, even though I just thought that the fire was caused by me, Unexpectedly, it was Zuo Suiliu who did it.
Lin Beifeng said: "How many people do we have?"
Zhao Xiaoyang sighed and said: "Two thousand people" Lin Beifeng said: "Most of the 10,000 Royal Forest Army are actually controlled by Zhou Dezhi."
Zhao Xiaoyang felt even more ashamed.
I comforted him and said, "I can't blame you for this.
Zuo Zhuliu spread rumors in front of others, and those imperial guards thought I was dead."
Lin Beifeng said: "Since Zuo Zhuliu has long wanted to change the palace, the Longxiang Army controlled by his son will definitely cooperate with their actions, and may not fully mobilize to the navy camp."
This is what I am most worried about.
Since Zuo Zhuliu has planned a palace coup, Zuo Dongxiang will not send all his main force to the navy camp.
Maybe the large force of Longxiang Army has already approached the imperial city.
My fears were immediately confirmed.
Twenty thousand Longxiang Army soldiers, under the command of Zuo Dongxiang, had marched into the imperial city under the banner of suppressing rebellion and quelling the rebellion.
The situation became increasingly serious.
Even if I spread the news that I am safe and sound at this time, the eight thousand imperial guardsmen will fall, but it will not change our current disadvantage.
All we can rely on is the trump card of Emperor Xinde.
I put on my royal uniform again and asked people to keep Emperor Xinde under strict supervision.
The alchemy room has been surrounded by Long Xiang's legion, and more than two thousand of us have been surrounded by Zuo Zhuliu.
I dutifully wrote my name at the end of the letter, then sealed the letter, wrapped the map that my father left for me in my arms, handed it to Zhao Xiaoyang and said, "Please send this letter to Zuo Zhuliu immediately." " Zhao Xiaoyang smiled bitterly and said: "Zuo Zhuliu has the advantage at the moment.
I'm afraid he won't give up no matter what the prince says."
I smiled and said: "What we need most is time.
As long as we can delay it for a moment or three, after the battle between the Navy Army and Long Xiang Army is over, they will rush here immediately.
By then, our situation will improve."
There was another loud shout outside.
It's nothing more than words like defeating the traitors and returning them to His Majesty.
I stood up slowly and opened the door to the inner room.
Emperor Xinde had woken up at this moment.
He stared at me and said, "You will let me go now, my treacherous son.
I may consider letting you live."
I laughed loudly, grabbed his hair, and my eyes suddenly turned cold and cold: "You don't have to worry, I will definitely want you to die in front of me."
Emperor Xinde couldn't help but shuddered: "You" I lowered my voice and said, "I'm telling you the truth, Zuo Zhuliu has surrounded us here.
He wants not only your life and mine, but also our Long family's world.
You'd better pray to God to let me win."
This battle, otherwise I will use your blood to pay tribute to the ancestors of our Long family."
Emperor Xinde's face was ashen, and his pale head drooped.

Two lines of tears actually flowed from his face: "You are a traitor and a traitor."
The first sentence naturally scolded me, but the latter sentence scolded Zuo Zhuliu.
The letter I wrote to Zuo Zhuliu had no substantive content.
I just wrote two words "Qiu Wu".
These are the two words I saw under the base of my father's tombstone.
I have always remembered them in my heart, but I was confused.
What does the word Qiuwu mean?
At first, I thought it meant the place where mother and father fell in love, but now I think that the word Qiuwu may have a deeper meaning.
Since Zuo Zhuliu was once a friend of his father, maybe he would understand the meaning.
Plus, the map my father passed to me might remind Zuo Zhuliu of something.
The sent guard quickly brought Zuo Zhuliu's reply.
Zuo Zhuliu asked to see Emperor Xinde to confirm that he was safe and sound.
Lin Beifeng said: "He is so brave, he dares to come alone."
But I knew that Zuo Zhuliu was definitely not here for Emperor Xinde.
Those two words and the map had aroused his strong curiosity, and he wanted to expose this mystery as soon as possible.
Moreover, in the current situation, we have completely fallen into his control.
No matter what we want to do to him, it will not affect the overall situation at hand.
After all, Zuo Zhuliu was extremely cunning.
Although he came alone, there was one condition: Yi Wang must exchange with him.
That is to say, while he walked into the alchemy room, Yi Wang and Zhao Xiaoyang must stay in their camp.
Among them, only in this way can his personal safety be ensured.
I couldn't help but secretly praise Zuo Zhuliu for his thoughtfulness, and he was indeed one of the few people in Dakang.
Although Lin Beifeng didn't know what I wanted to say to Zuo Zhuliu, we had no choice in the situation at hand.
He happily agreed to Zuo Zhuliu's request, and Zhao Xiaoyang and Zuo Zhuliu exchanged with each other and used themselves.
As a pledge, the dialogue between me and Zuo Zhuliu was facilitated.
Zuo Zhuliu's expression was still as calm as ever.
Even though the overall situation was in his hands, there was still no sense of pride on his face.
This state alone was something that very few people in the world could achieve.
He smiled and nodded to me and said: "Prince Ping did not disappoint me.
Zuo knew a long time ago that you would not die so easily."
He has never acknowledged my identity as the prince in his heart, and he still calls me " King Ping.
I smiled and said: "Zuo Xiangguo is really powerful, nothing about Dakang can be hidden from your ears."
Zuo Zhuliu raised the letter and map in his hand and said, "Zuo doesn't know many things, otherwise he wouldn't take the risk to come here to find out."
I praised: "Zuo Xiangguo's courage is indeed extraordinary.
If I really want to deal with you, now is indeed the best opportunity."
Zuo Zhuliu said: "Don't His Highness Prince Ping care about the lives of King Yi and Commander Zhao?"
I smiled and said: "Two lives are nothing compared to the country of Dakang."
Zuo Zhuliu did not feel any fear and praised: "Prince Ping's vision is indeed far-reaching.
Zuo started to smell a trace of blood."
My Brother He smiled and said: "Zuo Xiangguo, I asked you to come here because I want you to hear something with your own ears so that I can answer the mystery in your heart."
Zuo Zhuliu smiled and said: "I hope His Highness Prince Ping will not disappoint Zuo."
I nodded slowly and said, "Master Zuo, listen carefully."
I led Zuo Zhuliu into the room where Emperor Xinde was imprisoned.
I signaled Zuo Zhuliu to hide in the outer room and dispersed the guards responsible for guarding him.
Then I entered the inner room.

I deliberately did not close the door of the inner room, so that Let Zuo Zhuliu hear our conversation clearly.
Emperor Xinde scolded him fiercely: "Sir, what do you want to do?"
I sneered and said, "I just want to know why you wanted to kill the prince in the first place."
Emperor Xinde gritted his teeth and said: "There is no need for a reason to kill him.
If I had known about the existence of a scoundrel like you, I would have killed you and that bitch together."
When I heard him insulting my mother, the fire of ignorance arose in my heart, and I punched him in the soft ribs.
Emperor Xinde laughed miserably and said: "Good fight, good fight.
I have no vision, and I actually raised an evil creature by my side."
I haven't noticed it for more than 20 years, hahahahaha."
He was so regretful that he kept banging his head against the wall.
I was afraid that he would commit self-harm again, so I hit him on the side of the neck, knocking him away.
Zuo Zhuliu walked in slowly.
He was obviously shocked by everything he heard.
He stared at me blankly and said, "You, you."
He was so shocked that he couldn't say the following words. .
I nodded slowly and said calmly: "You understand everything now."
Zuo Zhuliu solemnly handed the map back to my hand, and suddenly he knelt down, his eyes filled with tears, and said in a trembling voice: "The guilty minister didn't know the identity of the prince, and he forgot to forgive his sin."
I hurriedly raised his arms and said, "Zuo Xiangguo, get up quickly."
Zuo Zhuliu whispered: "When Zuo saw the word Qiu Wu, he vaguely guessed something.
When he saw the map, Zuo had already concluded that there must be an extremely close relationship between His Highness and the Crown Prince."
He wiped the tears from his cheeks and said: "Those two words were carved by Zuo himself.
Before the prince died, the two of us once drank under the sycamore tree.
The autumn wind blew and the fallen leaves fell.
I still remember that day.
The prince said that there will be no more separation in Qiuwu, and the heart will be broken."
Only now did I know the origin of the two characters Qiu Wu on my father’s monument.
Zuo Zhuliu said: "The prince told me not to reveal our relationship in front of His Majesty, otherwise he will definitely be suppressed by His Majesty.
After the prince's death, Zuo Mou has always followed the prince's teachings, but" he stared at me and said : "I never knew that the prince still had blood and bones in this world."
Zuo Zhuliu said: "A scholar dies for someone who knows what he is doing.
The only person I respect most in this world is the Prince.
I am not blind to His Highness's ability.
But the more this happens, the more Zuo becomes more determined to deal with His Highness.
If it weren't for Xin De Emperor, the prince would not die, and Dakang would not be in today's predicament.
Zuo once swore in front of the prince's tomb that he would subvert the Long family and avenge the prince in his lifetime."
I looked extremely excited and held Zuo Zhuliu's arm tightly: "Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo, for your hard work."
But I was still uneasy in my heart.
Zuo Zhuliu may have been sincerely doing it for my father's kindness, but with his status With his improvement and the passage of time, his mentality will inevitably change.
It is difficult to say that he initiated this palace change without any personal gain.
Zuo Zhuliu sighed: "The world is full of vicissitudes, and fate plays tricks on people.
Why does everything have to come to an end, and then the truth becomes clear?"
I thought for a moment, what does his pride mean?
Is he determined to carry out this palace coup to the end, vowing to take away the power of the Long family?
If this is really the case, I will sacrifice the lives of King Yi and Zhao Xiaoyang.
He is in control, otherwise I will never have a chance to come back.
Zuo Zhuliu stared at me and said: "The tiger father has no dog son.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Your Highness already has the style of the prince in the past.
The prince has knowledge under the spring.
I will be extremely happy to see you like you today."
I didn't know Zuo Zhuliu's true intention for the moment, so I had no choice but to remain silent.
Zuo Zhuliu gently patted my shoulder and pulled me to sit down.
At this moment, there was lightning and thunder outside the window, and a heavy rain finally fell.
Zuo Zhuliu said: "Zuo was forced to do this palace change as a last resort.
His Highness's power continues to grow.
With Zuo's current strength, it is difficult to compete with His Highness."
What he said is the truth.
I nodded.
Zuo Zhuliu added: "Emperor Yunde seems to be fatuous, but he never trusts anyone around him.
Although he makes you the crown prince, he is always wary of you.
Although he treats me as his favorite minister, But use every possible means to investigate me.”
I whispered: "How did Zuo Xiangguo and my father know each other?"
Zuo Zhuliu smiled calmly and said: "When Zuo was young, he committed a capital crime in Qingzhou and was sentenced to death by the local magistrate.
Maybe God took pity on me and allowed me to meet the prince.
After the prince talked with me, he took pity on me for having some talents.
Against all odds, I was exempted from the death penalty.
I later became anonymous and changed my identity.
Entering the official career.
I didn't expect to be reused by Emperor Xinde and promoted all the way.
Later, when I met the prince in Kangdu, I mentioned this past incident to him.
Although the prince just smiled lightly, I will always remember it.
However, you are not allowed to mention his rescue of me to anyone, we will be friends from now on."
Zuo Zhuliu's eyes were wet and he said, "I have kept the prince's instructions in mind and never disclosed my relationship with him in front of others.
We only get together occasionally, but the prince's ambition and ambition are enough to knock Zuo over.
To this day, his voice and smile remain clearly in my mind.”
Zuo Zhuliu looked at Emperor Yunde who was unconscious on the ground, and sneered: "I originally thought that no third person in this life would know about the relationship between me and the prince, but I didn't expect that he would find out about it."
I thought to myself: "This Emperor Yunde's intelligence skills are indeed extraordinary.
Isn't it possible that he found out my life experience?"
Zuo Zhuliu said: "The person that Emperor Yunde was most afraid of in his life was His Highness the Crown Prince.
After he found out about the relationship between me and the Crown Prince, he started to deal with me.
Zuo was an official in Dakang for a long time.
He The plan to deal with me was revealed by my cronies, and from then on I made up my mind to seize the palace."
I whispered: "Does Prime Minister Zuo want to support King Qin to the throne?"
Zuo Zhuliu nodded unabashedly: "Prince Qin is the oldest among the princes and the least independent one.
He is undoubtedly the best candidate for the puppet."
I nodded in deep agreement.
Zuo Zhuliu said: "The only thing Zuo didn't expect was that just after His Highness returned to Dakang, the news came that you had been killed."
I smiled and said, "Zuo Xiangguo's news is indeed very well-informed."
Zuo Zhuliu said: "If you want to survive in the DPRK, how can it be possible without a few informants?"
Thinking of the Tianji Pavilion in Zuo Zhuliu's hands, it seemed that Zuo Zhuliu had many spies in various places, and no one wanted to have such an opponent.
Zuo Zhuliu said: "Zuo doesn't believe that His Highness would be killed by him so easily."
I couldn't help but laugh.

Zuo Zhuliu said: "I became friends with the prince, but became enemies with His Highness.
I have no intention of playing tricks on you, but God's will."
I smiled and said: "The Long Xiang army of Zuo Xiangguo has surrounded me.
It will be difficult for Yinkong to escape from your grasp today."
Zuo Zhuliu smiled bitterly and said: "Your Highness, don't worry.
Zuo initiated this palace change out of effort.
Even if Zuo is lucky enough to succeed in the palace change, his power in charge of Dakang will not last long.
You are in Yan and Kang How can the army in the northern part of the country let us go?
Once the army marches eastward, how can Zuo be able to stop it?
The whole of Dakang will fall into pieces.
Zuo has never wanted to put the people of Dakang into water and fire. " I said softly: "Although Zuo Xiangguo wanted to target me at the beginning, he never did anything that endangered the general public."
Zuo Zhuliu said: "Zuo is ashamed, today's situation was caused by me."
At this time, there was a faint cry of killing in the wind and rain.
Zuo Zhuliu and I looked at each other and walked out at the same time.
The guard outside the door came up and reported: "Your Highness, our reinforcements have arrived."
I was overjoyed.
It must be Jiao Xin and Han Rucheng who led their men to the imperial city.
Zuo Zhuliu said with a solemn expression: "Someone must finally explain this matter."
My heart was shaken, and I stared at Zuo Zhuliu and said, "Don't worry, Prime Minister Zuo, I am surrounded by you now, and my men dare not launch an attack rashly."
Zuo Zhuliu whispered: "I have something I want to say to His Highness alone."
I nodded, took Zuo Zhuliu's arm, and walked side by side to the seventh floor of the Star Observation Tower.
Looking down at the palace, I saw that in the wind and rain, the alchemy room was surrounded by Long Xiang's army and was airtight.
From a distance, it looked like there was a layer of dark clouds surrounding it.
Although there were shouts of killing in the distance, it still sounded some distance away from here, and because of the heavy rain, it was hard to see who was coming.
Zuo Zhuliu suddenly knelt down in front of me.
I panicked and said, "Why does Zuo Zhuliu need to pay such a big courtesy to me?"
Zuo Zhuliu respectfully kowtowed to me three times and said, "The person Zuo is paying my three respects to is the future emperor of Dakang, the overlord of the world."
There was a surge in my heart.
A dazzling bolt of lightning split the gloomy sky in half and illuminated the outline of our faces.
The strong wind mixed with icy rain continued to blow on us.
Zuo Zhuliu said: "His Highness told Zuo about his life experience, which shows his trust in the veteran.
Zuo's life was bestowed by His Highness the Crown Prince, and he has no chance to repay his great kindness in this life."
There were tears in his eyes.
Flashing, obviously extremely excited.
I whispered: "Xiang Zuo, please get up and speak."
Zuo Zhuliu insisted on kneeling on the ground and said: "The news of the palace change has spread throughout Kangdu, and someone must take responsibility for it.
This turmoil started because of Zuo, so it will naturally be borne by Zuo.
Your Highness, do you understand?"
My eyes were wet.
Zuo Zhuliu took the initiative to ask Ying to take responsibility for this matter, so that the palace incident could come to a successful conclusion.
I couldn't refuse, and I didn't want to refuse, so I said in a trembling voice: "Why should Prime Minister Zuo do this?"
Zuo Zhuliu said: "Zuo Mou has made up his mind from the moment he learned about His Highness's life experience.
There are some things that should be buried underground forever.
Zuo Mou is not a loyal person.
There is no guarantee that he will not have dissent in the future.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
If that happens, I feel sorry for Your Highness, and I have no shame in going to see the Prince."
Two lines of turbid tears slowly slid down his cheeks.
I nodded heavily and bit my lower lip hard.
Zuo Zhuliu said: "I only have one request.
My children don't know about Zuo.
I hope your highness can let them go."
"Don't worry, Prime Minister Zuo, Yinkong will never disobey your instructions," I vowed.
Zuo Zhuliu whispered: "After I die, they will definitely hate you, and they may try their best to deal with you."
I said sincerely: "Don't worry, Mr.
Zuo, since I promised you, I will forgive them no matter what they do."
Zuo Zhuliu said: "Zuo has nothing to ask for.
I only ask Your Highness to keep their lives and expel them from Dakang.
I wish that is enough.
As for what happened today, Zuo will give the world a reasonable explanation."
I helped Zuo Zhuliu up, and Zuo Zhuliu said sincerely: "Your Highness, I will never see you on the day you ascend the throne."
I felt sour in my heart, and tears flowed down without concealment.
Zuo Zhuliu let out a knowing laugh, turned around and walked downstairs.
When Yi Wang and Zhao Xiaoyang returned, they passed by Zuo Zhuliu.
Yi Wang glared at Zuo Zhuliu and never concealed his hatred for him.
Zuo Zhuliu smiled calmly and slowly disappeared into the wind and rain.
I stood quietly in the rain, watching Zuo Zhuliu's figure disappear into the wind and rain.
Zuo Zhuliu was right, someone must take responsibility for the palace change.
My identity must not be exposed.
His death has become a inevitable.
King Yi whispered: "Yinkong, what did he talk to you about?"
I whispered: "Zuo Zhuliu has promised to make me emperor and will immediately withdraw the Long Xiang army that besieged us."
Yi Wang and Zhao Xiaoyang were shocked at the same time.
How could they believe that Zuo Zhuliu could suddenly change his stance and give up even though he had all the advantages?
King Yi said: "Is it because our reinforcements have arrived, so he retreated in spite of the difficulties?"
I shook my head, stared at the gloomy sky, and said meaningfully: "Zuo Zhuliu finally saw the overall situation clearly.
Even if he can successfully seize the palace, he will not be able to seize the entire Dakang world."
Twenty thousand Longxiang troops began to evacuate the palace one after another.
I strictly ordered my soldiers not to make any attack.
An hour later, the Long Xiang army led by Zuo Dongxiang had all evacuated the palace.
Jiao Xin and Han Rucheng led a combined force of six thousand warriors and navy troops to take control of the palace.
News that Emperor Yunde and I were safe and sound quickly spread throughout the palace.
The eight thousand imperial guards who controlled the harem immediately came over to protect us after receiving the news.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Dezhi, the deputy commander of the imperial guards, quietly escaped with a few of his close men.
The three armies gathered together, and the total strength reached 16,000.
I asked Jiao Xin to lead 2,000 trusted warriors and 1,000 imperial guards to protect the imperial city.
Han Rucheng led the remaining 8,000 to patrol Kangdu City.
By the way, strengthen the defense of each city gate.
The remaining five thousand people, led by King Yi and Zhao Xiaoyang, went to various places in Kangdu to closely monitor the actions of hundreds of officials in the court and the royal family and nobles.
When everything initially stabilized, it was already dusk, the rain gradually stopped, and the air was filled with the smell of moist earth.
I took a deep breath of refreshing air, but the heavy feeling in my chest did not ease at all.

Jiao Xin quietly came up behind me and whispered: "Your Highness, the Long Xiang army disbanded soon after leaving the city.
Should we take this opportunity to pursue them and kill them all?"
I shook my head and said, "I promised Zuo Zhuliu that I would give him a chance."
Jiao Xin said: "Our reinforcements will arrive in the next two days.
Does the prince want to wait for them to arrive before purging the remaining party members?"
I whispered: "Let's put Zuo Zhuliu's matter aside for now.
Our first task is to control the palace and stabilize Kangdu.
By the way, have you found the imperial seal?"
Jiao Xin shook his head and said: "We searched every place in the palace where the jade seal might be stored, but we still found nothing.
According to someone in the Royal Forest Army, the jade seal seemed to have been found by Zhou Dezhi.
Could it be that he took advantage of the chaos?
Taken away” I frowned.
Although the jade seal is important, it is nothing more than a formality.
If it is really lost, the craftsman will make a new one, but the persuasiveness will be compromised.
Suddenly there was a long laugh from outside the palace.
I looked up and saw that Chen Zisu and Che Hao had arrived.
Chen Zisu said with a happy face, "Congratulations, Prince."
He used to call me Young Master, but now he suddenly changed.
I smiled and said, "Mr.
Chen, it's better to call me Young Master more affectionately."
Chen Zisu smiled and said: "Since the young master has given orders, Zisu will be more respectful than obey.
But when the young master ascends the throne, Zisu will definitely change his tune."
I smiled slightly, and only now did I realize that although I had successfully controlled the overall situation, I didn't feel much joy in my heart.
Che Hao came to me and said, "Master, when Mr.
Chen and I entered the palace, we met several imperial guards escorting the deputy commander Zhou Dezhi."
I said overjoyed: "Let them come in quickly."
Che Hao nodded and greeted outside the palace.
Several imperial guards escorted Zhou Dezhi in, who had a bruised nose and swollen face.
It turned out that Zhou Dezhi led his cronies to escape from the palace.
After much deliberation, these cronies wanted to stay in Dakang.
He would not be able to escape our pursuit.
Even if he escaped, he would probably have to live a life of fear.
After some discussion, he was captured unprepared by Zhou Dezhi and tied into the palace in order to perform meritorious service and atone for his sins.
Zhou Dezhi was so frightened that his face turned pale.
He kept kowtowing and said: "This villain deserves to die for his crime.
Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is broad-minded.
Please don't be as knowledgeable as me
