There are still a few days before the ceremony, and many unfamiliar faces suddenly came to Licheng.

The streets are full of people, rubbing shoulders and bustling.

In fact, the original inhabitants here have almost been replaced by those forces, and now it is a veritable Longtan Tiger's Den.

As soon as the members of the royal family enter the confines of Licheng, they will be surrounded by heavy sieges.

Unable to escape!

Weiyuan Palace.

"Has there been any movement in the palace these days?" asked an old, gruff voice.

In the shadows ahead, there stood several men in black, who almost blended into the darkness around them, if they didn't look at them deliberately.

One of the black-clothed men replied in a voice without any mood fluctuations: "Back to the master, in the past few days, the palace side is laying out the inside and around in the name of decorating the Licheng Palace......

After the man in black finished speaking, he flipped his wrist, and a secret letter fell into his hand, and he presented it with both hands.

Next to the old man, an old man who looked also gray walked out, took the secret letter and handed it to the old man next to him.

This old man is none other than the current King of Weiyuan, Min Yue.

King Weiyuan is the most powerful of the twelve kings, and has always been a big trouble for the imperial court.

Of course, Minyue is also ambitious, and what he wants is not to directly split off and become the emperor of a small country, but to directly replace him and become the real emperor of the Great Liu Kingdom.

It's just that after so many years of planning, now the opportunity has finally come, and the time is right......

Min Yue twisted one end of the silk silk in his hand, stretched out his hand and shook it to unfold, above is the terrain of the entire Licheng and the layout of the houses and streets inside.

Now, the topographic map is marked with different markings.

Those marks were the layout plans they had found by monitoring the palace.

Min Yue looked at it, his eyes were gloomy, and he immediately burst into laughter.

"Haha, such a carving insect skill......"

Min Yue said contemptuously, and then commanded the man in black: "Go, continue to monitor every move in the palace." ”

Several black-clothed people respectfully agreed, and just as they were about to leave, Min Yue suddenly asked, "By the way, can those stakes planted in the palace be found?"

The man in black responded: "In the past few days, the palace has indeed been investigated relatively closely, and three or four have been discovered, but those stakes that are ten or twenty years old have no flaws. ”

And those who were found were also deliberately exposed by them...... After all, someone is always needed to take the blame.

Min Yue groaned and waved his hand, and the man in black quietly disappeared into the darkness again, just as he came.

After the people left, the butler next to him said, "Lord, I suspect that there is fraud in this." ”

Min Yue picked up the teacup on the table, put it to his lips and took a sip, and said slowly: "Oh, let's listen to it." ”

Old butler: "I suspect that they are laying out Licheng with such fanfare, but it's actually just a cover, maybe...... They didn't even think about going to Licheng. ”

After all, the relationship is so delicate now, not to mention that it is outside the palace, and even in the palace, there are often assassins who assassinate the emperor, and they all want to sit on the throne.

Not to mention going out of the palace. Therefore, it is very likely that the emperor and empress are just pretending, and the more they pretend to be, everyone thinks that they will go, but in fact they just send a stand-in.

Just like them, although they promised to participate in this grand ceremony in person, they didn't plan to go at all, and they had already started to arrange the stand-in.

Pushing oneself and others, I think the emperor and queen think the same way.

Min Yue hummed, lengthened the end note, and said, "Go on." ”

The old butler: "At that time, the power in the palace is bound to be weak, we can launch the layout of the palace at the same time, and take down the real emperor and queen in one fell swoop, and here, the captured puppet emperor and queen just become a pawn ......"

Min Yue hummed again, he didn't seem to be interested in the housekeeper's idea, and his expression was still faint.

Suddenly said an inexplicable sentence: "Alas, how many years have passed, people's minds have changed......"

The butler's heart suddenly sudden, and he couldn't help but bow his body, "Lord, what do you mean?"

Min Yue smiled, and his face full of wrinkles looked very gloomy: "It's been more than ten or twenty years, how many of them are still trustworthy in that environment?"

The butler inexplicably felt a chill rise up his spine...... So, the Lord already suspected the stakes that had been planted in the palace before?!

That Yu Yu is very good at using people, and he is also very good at winning people's hearts, although those stakes have given them the "grace of knowing things", he also made them swear a heavy oath.

But people's hearts are made of meat, and decades of getting along with each other ...... It is not excluded that they will have a real respect for Uki.

So Min Yue actually didn't trust those people at all, including the information they sent.

Min Yue took another sip of tea, and slowly took out another silk silk from his sleeve pocket, on which was still a map of Licheng.

However, it is clear that the marks marked on it are more detailed and densely laid out than those presented by the man in black before.

The old butler was shocked, knowing that he was the closest person to the core power in the entire Weiyuan Palace, and even a more trusted person than those few princes, but he also had no idea when the Lord had rearranged another wave of people, and even got more detailed information!

The old butler's hand holding the map trembled slightly, and he looked at the map carefully, and suddenly gasped.

The entire Licheng was almost armed to the teeth, and the road from the imperial city to Licheng was also heavily guarded.

Even if there is a stir in one of the links, it will be violently attacked immediately.

The point is that these feudal kings want a coup d'état and want to have a good reputation.

After all, the most important thing about the law of this hour and space is the four words "justifiable".

The most taboo thing is to kill one's father and brother, which is intolerable to man and God. Of course, they have done these things for their own power and selfish desires, but they still need a fig leaf on their faces.

And this fig leaf is to let some people be "death squads", pretending to be assassins of enemy countries to assassinate the emperor and empress.

In this way, they had the excuse of King Qin to send their army to the imperial city......

However, if the arranged death squad can't even burp a bubble, it won't be able to build momentum at all.

...... The two old things discussed there for a long time.

Someone outside reported: "The second son asks to see-"

The second son of King Weiyuan is now the most trusted Minqing.

Min Yue said: "Let him in." ”

Min Qing was dressed in a light blue robe, covered with a smock of the same color, and looked more calm and introverted.

I have to say that as a concubine who was not favored originally, he was able to stand out from more than a dozen sons, and he was by no means as gentle and harmless as he looked.
