When Chen Yanzhi rushed to Longhua Palace, he transferred the remaining guards outside the hall on the grounds of lack of manpower in the front, replaced the guards he brought, and promised that there would be no problems.

After the others left, Chen Yanzhi left the guards outside the hall and did not let anyone enter without permission, and entered the Longhua Hall alone, carrying the holy decree that had just been prepared in his arms to meet with the second prince Mu Rong, and after covering the jade seal, it would be completed.

However, when Chen Yanzhi entered the inner hall, what caught his eye was not the scene of the second prince Mu Rong holding the emperor hostage, but fell to the ground covered with blood, holding his right hand in pain, wailing silently but in extreme pain, and on the ground not far from the second prince, there was a bloody severed limb, which was undoubtedly the right hand of a person.

At that moment, Chen Yanzhi's whole person was like falling into an ice cave in an instant, the joy and excitement in his heart were frozen by the cold chill in the hall, and there was only one voice in his heart that kept telling the cruel end he was about to face.

It's over, it's over, everything has completely disappeared, Chen Yanzhi froze in place, his eyes showed a frightened and gray color, his mind was blank, and he looked at the second prince whose face was twisted by pain, rolling and twitching on the ground, his mouth was wide open, he was panting heavily, he didn't know what he wanted to express, he didn't make a sound at all, as if he was a mute himself. The miserable appearance of the second prince was so frightened that the six gods had no owner, and his face was as pale as a dead man.

"Li Desheng, take people down, don't dirty my dormitory." Mu Haoyu's eyes when he looked at Chen Yanzhi were like poisonous blades, stabbing Chen Yanzhi no longer able to support his already overwhelmed body, and he collapsed to the ground under his knees.

Li Desheng glanced contemptuously at Chen Yanzhi, who was ignoring his eyes, waved his hand, and suddenly the man in black who came from nowhere dragged Chen Yanzhi and the second prince Mu Rong down together.

"Cleaned up the outside?" Mu Haoyu leaned on the cushion and asked.

"According to the emperor's intentions, the forbidden army has surrounded the Second Prince's Mansion and Chen's Mansion." Li Desheng bowed and replied: "Make sure that everyone in the mansion is unable to fly." ”

"Hmm." Mu Haoyu closed his eyes, his face was a little pale, and his mood was not very good.

"Father." He stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed and whispered to his tired father.

"Chao'er." Mu Haoyu opened his tired eyes and looked at his most beloved little daughter beside him. He reached out and stroked his little daughter's slightly immature cheek.

"Why did you come back so quickly?" Mu Haoyu knew that his youngest daughter was worried about him, but he still couldn't help but blame, "Take care of your body, you are still young." The father did not want to see his father's court return to his father's side with a full body of fatigue. ”

It only took half a month to come back, day and night, non-stop, to a post station to change horses without changing people, just like this, all the way to the horse, full of exhaustion can not rest, thinking about the safety of the father, even if he knows that there are secret guards around the father and the emperor is still not at ease, the more I want to go back earlier, so I show that I take care of myself, and I don't even have time to change my clothes and hurriedly enter the palace.

It is from the secret passage in the palace to enter the Longhua Palace. At that time, the second prince Mu Rong was in the palace, and in order to prevent being discovered, he hid in the shadow of a long curtain.

Mu Rong approached step by step, with a smile on his face, and he looked arrogant and determined to win. The words that came out were even more disgusting.

When Mu Rong was two steps away from the dragon couch, he stopped and didn't go any further, he didn't dare to rush forward directly, he was afraid that his father had a sharp weapon hidden next to him, and if he was not careful, he would kill someone, seeing that the hope of victory was just around the corner, he definitely had to stay quite calm, he had already come to this point and didn't care about waiting a little longer. Be careful to make a ship of ten thousand years.

Mu Rong did not forget to praise how smart and talented he was, and he was fully qualified for the position of heir to the throne, and repeatedly asked the emperor to abdicate and make way for Xian, and compared it with the eldest prince Mu Zhao, saying that if Mu Zhao's wolf ambition had not come in advance, maybe the emperor would not have been able to sit here safely. There is no shame in saying this. looked pretentious, as if he was the only one in the entire Mu royal family who could inherit the unification, and no one could compare with him, Tian shamelessly showed his own skills and talents to the emperor and his father.

Mu Haoyu was immediately so angry that his face turned from red to white, and from white to blue. A mouthful of blood spurted out under the breath.

Mu Rong saw that his father was angry and vomited blood, and he didn't feel guilty in his heart, but he was very happy and even excited, and his eyes were full of burning ambitions that couldn't be concealed.

It's good to vomit blood, save him from effort, and finally drain the emperor's vitality, so that he doesn't have to worry about the impact of the emperor's existence on himself every day, Mu Rong faintly gave birth to a little viciousness in his heart. The Emperor is also the emperor, is the largest in the palace except for the emperor, if he becomes the emperor, there is the Emperor Taishang on his head, although the Emperor is impossible to meddle in political affairs, he will not let this kind of thing happen, but people are always alive, he is afraid that one is not controlled, but he will suffer from it, if the person dies, it will be in vain, there is no need to worry about not sleeping, only one person is left in the palace, and the whole country will be his alone, that is the real Ninety-Five Supreme Glory.

Mu Rong unabashedly recounted the ambitions buried in his heart, and even complained about his father's partiality. Anything given to Mu Zhao is better than himself, and the family background of the main concubine and the side concubine who is also married by the prince can be better than which side is better, even if it is just a little, in Mu Rong's eyes, it can be magnified several times. Jealousy begins to grow wildly, until it can be suppressed again, and then it all erupts.

After counting everything about his father's eccentricity, Mu Rong felt that the time had come, and unhurriedly pulled out a short dagger from his sleeve, the silver blade flashed faintly cold, and the next moment without warning, he went towards the person on the bed who was already depressed, and the speed was so fast that there was nowhere to dodge.

At the last moment, a silver sword blade plunged straight in, and towards Mu Rong's right hand holding the short dagger.

The speed of the sword light caught Mu Rong off guard, and he didn't react at all, only felt a sharp pain in his right arm, and a trace of bloodred blood red jumped up and shallow himself due to the high strength, and the bloody breath suddenly rushed into his nasal cavity, and his stomach suddenly rolled like a wave, which was extremely uncomfortable, but when he heard a sound, it seemed to be the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and before he could see it, he found that his right hand was empty, and his eyes, which were originally full of pride, were instantly stained with haze, and he lost the ability to speak for a while. When he regains his voice. Before he had time to scream and express his pain, he was sealed and kicked aside.

The pain went up from the broken mouth like a maggot on the tarsal bone, gnawing at Mu Rong's flesh and blood, and it hurt so much that it was difficult for him to maintain the demeanor of a prince. The whole body twitched up and down, and rolling on the ground still couldn't solve the indescribable pain.

As early as when the curtain was slightly touched, Mu Haoyu had already noticed that someone had quietly entered the Longhua Palace, this person was obviously the one he was most familiar with and trusted, and he had an answer in his heart, the youngest son Mu Jin was sent out by himself to lead troops to surround the mansion of the rebel officials tomorrow morning, and he would not appear here at this moment, there was only one person left, and he didn't think about it.

"Chao'er." Mu Haoyu excitedly whispered the name of his beloved daughter.

"Father." Came out of the shadows and crossed Mu Rong on the ground. Standing in front of Mu Haoyu.

"Father's court." Mu Haoyu saw his beloved daughter after a year, his tears unconsciously condensed, and he hugged his little daughter to comfort the pain of longing.

"Father, your injury?" I just saw Mu Haoyu vomiting blood. I was afraid that my father would hurt his heart when he was excited.

"It doesn't matter, my father is fine, it is the deer blood prepared by my father in advance, and it is contained under the tongue, in order to act more realistically." Mu Haoyu said that he had made all preparations for his illness this time, and it can be said that he had made no mistakes.

I don't believe it, and I will not be relieved until I am examined. At this time, Li Desheng, who got rid of the attendants who guarded him and returned to Longhua Palace, was full of surprises.

"Your Highness, you're back!" Li Desheng grew up watching, and his natural feelings are different from the past, and he also treats Li Desheng as an elder, and he will not feel that Li Desheng is rude.

"Just came back." He smiled at Li Desheng.

"It's good to be back. Just come back. Li Desheng burst into tears excitedly, he hadn't seen His Royal Highness for more than a year, and he missed it very much, but he didn't forget that there was still political affairs that had not been done, and hurriedly Mu Haoyu explained the situation outside.

"Alright. Now is not the time to catch up, Chen's performance is coming soon, and he has to perform a show. Mu Haoyu patted the back of his little daughter's hand and signaled to hide first.

"You don't have to act, the scene in front of you is enough to panic." I miss my father, and I miss people even more.

"Your Highness is right." Li Desheng glanced at the second prince who was not quiet on the ground with pity, "This is enough to scare Chen Yanzhi." "There's no need to act for one of Chen's actors.

"Well, I'll listen to you." Mu Haoyu has always obeyed his little daughter's words.

So when Chen Yanzhi came in, the first thing he saw was not the people on the ground, but the white-clothed young man sitting on the edge of the dragon couch and the emperor very closely, and he was suspicious, and then he was attracted by the people who were constantly cleaning and rolling around on the ground, which was the scene that happened at the beginning.

Tonight was extraordinary, the people who had gone to bed early in the cold night were awakened by the sudden sound of horses' hooves, and then saw a bright light suddenly appear outside the dark window, and they were frightened and a little curious, and put on their coats and stuck them under the window to look out through the cracks in the window.

Okay, it's so bright outside because there are so many torches lit, and the sound of horses' hooves comes from the opposite street, where all the officials live in the DPRK and China, what's the matter in the middle of the night, are the officers and soldiers arresting people?

A large area of orange fire suddenly appeared on the black-lit street, not only the family was awakened by the sound before, but the entire street where the officials lived, more or less heard the movement outside, through the small guard of the door, the owner of the house was shocked into a cold sweat, hurriedly put on a robe and trotted to the front of the courtyard gate, opened the courtyard gate and looked, good fellow, the whole alley has been occupied by officers and soldiers holding torches and riding horses, by the light of the fire to look at the clothes worn by these officers and soldiers to judge which place this belongs, at a glance, This is not an ordinary yacha guard, but a forbidden army protecting the imperial city, obediently dispatching so many forbidden troops at night, is there something wrong, looking at these people as if they are arresting people.

Many officials were alarmed by this loud noise, and they went out to take a look, and when they saw that they were not gathered in front of their homes, they were greatly relieved.

Mu Jinming led a team of people to surround all the mansions of the officials of the two princes and the party, and there was a chance of kneeling out and killing them on the spot, which made those who wanted to flee dare not take half a step out of the courtyard.

The waiting people were all together, and the officials who were not left out raised their hands and waved, and the forbidden army who was waiting for them crashed open the courtyard door and rushed into the mansion in an instant.

All the officials listed on the list were in a catastrophe this night, and all the men and women in the house, regardless of men, women, children, and servants, were tied up and pressed into the prison of the Criminal Department.

In order to ensure that the news is not leaked and to guard these prisoners, the forbidden army guards the entire Criminal Department like an iron bucket, and the incumbent officials of the Criminal Department have to sleep here tonight, and cannot take half a step out of the yamen of the Criminal Department, otherwise they will be punished for the crime of treason.

The officials of the Criminal Department are all elites, and many of these suspects are colleagues in the court, and they detained such officials this night, it must be a big incident in the palace, and no one dares to hit the muzzle of the gun at this time, and endure it for one night, and it will be clear tomorrow.

Of course, most of these brainless people belong to the two princes and the party, not standing in line on the surface, but secretly loyal. As soon as he saw that the arrests were all officials of the two princes and one party, he panicked in his heart, and showed his feet, so he could only go with his colleagues in prison.

With the lessons of these ten officials, the remaining six people in the Criminal Department no longer have the heart to inquire about the news, and they have already seen that this matter is not trivial, but whoever touches it will die, and if they want to save their lives, they have to be in peace, pretending not to know anything.

In the eldest prince's mansion, who had been paying attention to the movements of the second prince, the little servant came back from outside panting, shouting: "Your Highness is not good!" ”

"What's going on?" Mu Zhao rested in the study tonight to facilitate dealing with emergencies.

"The Second Prince's Mansion was surrounded by the forbidden army, the slaves didn't dare to lean forward, they didn't know what was going on, and on the way back, they saw a lot of forbidden troops, and went straight to the Green Willow Lane where the officials lived.

"It's surrounded." Mu Zhaowu muttered these words to himself, and his heart was uncertain.

"Your Highness, it's not good." At this time, another servant who went to inquire about the news came back and said in a panic: "All the people in Chenfu have been taken away by the forbidden army, and none of them have been left, not only these, but several officials' mansions have been surrounded by the forbidden army, and some have already gone in to arrest people. ”

"Can you tell who the officials are?" Mu Zhao's heart sank suddenly, and his brows tightened and he had a bad feeling.

"There are a few people from the second prince's faction, and the little ones didn't dare to move forward, for fear of being discovered, they hurried back." The arrest of multiple officials at once is the most shocking thing in history.

"Is there any news from the palace?" Mu Zhao felt that something was wrong, it was impossible for such a big movement to be silent in the palace, there should be news back.

"There is no news from the palace." The little servant replied: "Is the palace sealed or the palace gate is not allowed to enter and exit?" "Both of these situations are possible, just so that the forbidden army can catch it right, and no one can be missed.

"What's going on?" Before Mu Zhao could think about the reason, someone came to report that someone from the palace had come.
