The patriarch of the Cao family told Xia Wei that the steps to take control of the imperial city were as follows: first eliminate the Yang family, the Li family and other families who dared to resist, as well as the court officials and forces who dared to resist, and then declare peace with the Great Chen State.

The patriarch of the Cao family described in detail to the eldest prince the plan to control the imperial city and reconcile with the Great Chen Kingdom, how to do each step, possible accidents, and how to deal with them.

After the explanation, the eldest prince reluctantly left the Cao family and returned to the palace with a heavy heart, sadness, and helplessness.

Sleepless all night, early the next morning, the eldest prince came to the court, according to the deployment of the Cao family leader, he ordered the palace guards to announce the patriarchs of the Cao family, the Sun family, the Huang family, the Li family and the Yang family to the court to discuss matters.

The civil and military officials in the court were very shocked when they heard this: none of the patriarchs of the eight major families in the imperial city had official ranks, so they were not qualified to come to the court to discuss matters. Usually, even if something happens and you need to notify them to help, it is only in private. Why are they being proclaimed to the court today? What are they going to do? And some of the princes and ministers who got the inside information began to tremble: a shocking change is coming!

After a while, the patriarchs of the Cao, Sun, and Huang families arrived, but the guards who informed the heads of the Yang and Li families came back to report that the heads of the two families had something to do and could not come to the court.

When the eldest prince heard this, he was furious, and immediately announced in the court: "The heads of the two families of the Yang family and the Li family, as the subjects of the Great Xia Kingdom, do not listen to the edict of the imperial court of the Great Xia Kingdom, which is really a great rebellion, and the Yang family has a private collection of royal family members, and has long had a rebellious heart, and today's behavior is an act of rebellion against the Great Xia Kingdom. ”

After the announcement of the eldest prince, there was silence in the court, and many people were stunned, and those who knew something about this matter and knew the inside story were still very shocked.

After the announcement of the eldest prince, he immediately ordered the heads of the Cao family, the Sun family, and the Huang family to go home to reorganize the soldiers and horses, come to help, and notify the Royal Forest Army to assemble, go to the Yang family, and destroy the Yang family.

The patriarchs of the three families took the order.

The eldest prince came to the school field of the Imperial Forest Army, and when he saw the assembled Royal Forest Army, his nose was crooked: on the school field of the Royal Forest Army, there were only a few Royal Forest Army standing sparsely. These Royal Forest Army, except for some that he himself controlled and wooed, not only did the rest have very few people, but their cultivation was also very low, and they were not able to be used at all. The eldest prince looked at it, there were only three martial kings here, and they were all his people. The eldest prince quickly figured out the reason why there were so few Imperial Forest Army, most of the Royal Forest Army went on vacation, and even Feng Shiyun, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, was nowhere to be found.

The eldest prince was helpless when he saw it, so he had to order the Imperial Forest Army to let all the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army who were on leave quickly return to the team and carry out the task.

The eldest prince also ordered the assembly of the imperial city guards. However, he found that the Imperial City Guards were almost unavailable except for those guarding the city gates. The eldest prince ordered the imperial city guards to no longer guard the city gates, but to gather together and follow him to exterminate the Yang family.

As soon as the crowd gathered inside and outside the city gate saw that the imperial city guards had withdrawn, and no one blocked the city gate, and they could enter and exit, people immediately swarmed up and rushed to the city gate, and for a time all the city gates were in chaos: those entering the city, those leaving the city, cheers, and cries were chaotic.

The eldest prince led the Imperial Forest Army and the Imperial City Guards, and after meeting the guards of the Cao family, the Sun family, and the Huang family, he came to the Yang family's mansion, and the eldest prince ordered the Yang family's mansion to be surrounded.

It's a pity that there are too few people brought by the eldest prince, except for the gate of the Yang family, there are only some people standing sparsely everywhere.

The eldest prince and the patriarch of the Cao family, the Sun family, and the Huang family stood at the door of the Yang family, and saw that the door of the house was closed, and no one from the Yang family could be seen. The eldest prince ordered his entourage to read the edict, and a guard read it out loud: "Fengtian carrier, the edict of the prince of the prison country: Yang Jinglun, the head of the Yang family, and Li Hongde, the head of the Li family, have long had the intention of rebellion, and secretly hid members of the royal family. ”

After the entourage finished reading the edict, a group of guards smashed open the gate of the Yang family with a giant log, and the eldest prince, the head of the Cao family, etc., and many royal forest troops and city defense troops, rushed in.

After entering the gate of the Yang family's mansion, the eldest prince found that inside the gate of the Yang family was a large square, and many people stood in a peculiar formation on the square.

The eldest prince held a long knife and pointed at the head of the Yang family and said: "Yang Jinglun, your Yang family and the Li family, do not listen to the dispatch of the prince, secretly hide the members of the royal family, harbor the heart of rebellion, and plot rebellion. ”

Yang Jinglun sneered at the eldest prince: "Whoever has a rebellious heart, heaven and earth can learn from it." Your Royal Highness, the Great Prince, you have listened to Cao Anbang's demagogic words, betrayed the Great Xia Kingdom, and betrayed your father! Now that the national crisis is at hand, Your Majesty led the army to sacrifice your life and death in the front to fight for the thousands of people of the Great Xia Kingdom, but you are in the imperial city, perverse and disregard for the life and death of your father and thousands of soldiers, you are really to blame. Fortunately, someone has already seen your rebellious heart, and we have been prepared for it, otherwise, your shameful act of causing chaos in the imperial city and surrendering to the Great Chen Kingdom will really succeed.

The patriarch of the Cao family said: "What to talk about with him, kill them." ”

After speaking, he waved the long knife in his hand and led everyone to rush forward.

The Yang family patriarch sneered, and with a move of the long knife in his hand, an energy big knife formed on his long knife. The Yang family patriarch waved the long knife in his hand and slashed at the people rushing in front of him. With the swing of the long knife in the Yang family patriarch's hand, this energy big knife slashed towards the people in front of him like lightning. The generals and guards of the three families, including the Imperial Forest Army, the Imperial City Defense Army, and the Cao Family, who rushed to the front, were like cutting tofu with a quick knife, and they were stopped and cut off many people by this energy knife at once.

The patriarch of the Sun family is on the right and bears the brunt. He just rushed forward two steps, and suddenly found an energy knife, slashing at him, he waved the big knife in his hand, and quickly went to block, he was holding a second-level spiritual weapon knife, he thought that with his cultivation and this second-level spiritual weapon knife, he could block this energy knife, but as soon as he made contact, he knew that he was wrong: this energy knife slashed at his big knife, just like a kitchen knife cutting a cucumber, and cut his knife in two at once, he quickly dodged, but unfortunately it was too late, he lay on the ground, trying to dodge the energy knife that came over, but before he could dodge, the energy knife slashed at his shoulder, splitting him into two pieces from his shoulder。

Poor Sun family patriarch, the seventh-level cultivation master of the Martial King, died under this energy sword like this.
