Chapter 681 The palace is in turmoil

Chaos abruptly arises, and the situation suddenly changes! The situation has developed beyond all expectations. However, in just a few days, there was a huge wave inside and outside the court. With the acquiescence of the emperor, hundreds of people were involved, and concubines, relatives, ministers, and even generals were either imprisoned or executed, becoming victims of this unjustified disaster.

No one knows what kind of consideration the emperor was in to make such a cold decision. No one can predict when this storm will stop.

His Majesty the Emperor has never appeared in public. And the crown prince has not held a court meeting again in the past few days. The imperial court, which has temporarily lost the prime minister and the imperial historian, is a little busy in the face of various government affairs that need to be dealt with.

Even those who have not been involved in the palace changes are much more uneasy in their hearts at this moment. After all, too little is known to the outside world. And the more secrets in this veil, the more likely it is to arouse suspicion and panic in people's hearts.

The remaining internal and external officials, led by the ministers of Jiuqing and the doctors, all cast their uneasy eyes in the direction of the majestic Weiyang Palace. It is only at this time that people feel how valuable it is to have a stable and peaceful development situation!

Fortunately, this upper-class turmoil has not affected the lives of ordinary people for the time being. Although there were many exclamations and discussions in the wells of Chang'an City, there were no uncontrollable riots and all kinds of unpredictable events. This made Lord Chang'an Ling and the court officials breathe a sigh of relief, but they couldn't help but secretly worry that if the situation in the palace was not quickly calmed down, I am afraid that soon after, Chang'an City and outside will soon be affected. At that point, the consequences are really unpredictable.

However, there are some people who will never stop there. The wind and waves have just risen, and the desired goal has not been achieved, so how can you give up halfway? So what about the fact that among them there are innocent people who have lost their lives, the court has shed blood, and the souls are everywhere? What thrilling court revolt did there not have a large number of martyrs? This is not only their luck, but also their inevitable fate.

The person who said this in a cold tone was naturally the commander of the embroidered guard. At this moment, he stood on a high place, looking at the continuous palace under his eyes, the cold wind blowing the cloak behind him, and the pride in his heart was incomprehensible.

Once upon a time, he Jiang Chong was just a small person. Because he has been discriminated against since he was a child, he is inspired to get ahead. For this reason, he did not hesitate to endure all kinds of humiliation, threw himself into the mansion of the powerful, looked for various opportunities, and wanted to climb up step by step. Needless to say, there are many unbearable things that have been endured in this process.

"The scenery here is really different from other places!"

The handsome man with great power has an invisibly palpitating momentum between gestures. The henchmen and subordinates followed not far behind, watching the commander's high spirits, and they all respectfully worshipped.

"Lord Jiang, you cleared the palace ban this time, shared worries and solved problems for Your Majesty, and won Your Majesty's favor. Presumably, in the near future, he will definitely get a heavy reward, and the hope of being a marquis can be expected today! Hehe! ”

Those who are qualified to stand with Jiang Chong are naturally also celebrities in front of the emperor. Jiang Chong didn't look back, and the corner of his eye glanced at the man named Yan Zhu, secretly revealing a look of disdain.

This person who once served as a regular attendant of Shangshu was not long ago, he could be regarded as a big man in power, and no one was in his eyes! I remember a few times that I followed behind the benefactor Dong Yan, and I also had a few encounters with him, and I also had the idea of climbing this high branch in my heart. It's just that Yan Zhu at that time would notice him as a little person!

But what about now? Yan Suke, who temporarily followed the emperor as a favored minister, also had to bow down and speak with flattery in the face of the powerful embroidered guard commander. The world is hot and cold, and the people are warm and cold, but that's it!

"Huh! This is a bit premature...... Brother Yan doesn't know? The reason why His Majesty's illness has not been cured for a long time, in addition to the small hidden disease, is mainly caused by someone who deliberately caused trouble! ”

Yan Zhu was taken aback. He never knew the inside story. originally thought that Jiang Chong was taking advantage of the emperor's trust to be a fox here, but he just wanted to take the opportunity to increase his power. If that's what he says, it's too serious.

"Master Jiang, what do you say? Can you tell Yan clearly, so that you can know it in your heart. ”

The expression on Yan Suke's face changed. He is also a shrewd person, and he has been cautiously watching what kind of risks are behind the turmoil in Weiyang Palace. The last catastrophe that narrowly escaped death made him still have palpitations. If you can't see the direction clearly in the coming waves again, you will definitely end up with broken bones and no corpse! Whenever he thought of this, his whole body shuddered, and his attitude towards Jiang Chong became more respectful.

Jiang Chong looked around, and his heart was full of pride. Now he is in power, and almost the entire Weiyang Palace is under control. If you want to do anything, is there anything else you need to worry about?

"The scope of the search in the palace is far from enough...... Master Xingyunzi has already said that the aura of demagogy in Weiyang Palace is pervasive, which has seriously affected the luck of the Great Han. For the sake of loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor and for the sake of the stability of the country, we, as courtiers, should naturally do our best to clean everything up for His Majesty the Emperor. In this way, we can repay the grace of this encounter! ”

When these righteous and awe-inspiring words came out, Yan Zhu nodded again and again beside him. He looked at Jiang Chong with admiration, knowing that he must have something to say. Sure enough, Jiang Chong's face changed, and his tone began to have a faint edge.

"Your Majesty has authorized that any place in the Weiyang Palace can be included in the scope of the inventory. Therefore, we need to draw the strength of the Feather Forest Army next....... ”

Yan Zhu's heart moved, and he followed his gaze into the distance, passing over the layers of palaces, and as far as his eyes could see, several tall laurel trees were falling with the last fragrance of flowers. For many years, people inside and outside the palace have paid more or less attention to the fragrance of osmanthus flowers. The residence of Empress Wei Zifu of the Han Dynasty, Jianzhang Palace!

Yan Zhu entered the court with his erudition and won the emperor's respect. Even Yuan Zhao back then once praised his talent. With his sensitivity, of course, he knows very well what it means once he moves the Jianzhang Palace!

"Master Jiang, is the next place to be investigated, is it ......?"

"Not bad! It's Jianzhang Palace! Brother Yan, don't be surprised. Now there is a lot of evidence in the hands of the embroidered guard, all of which vaguely point to Empress Wei and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Whether it is for the majesty of His Majesty, or to prove the innocence of the queen and the crown prince, this matter must be done, and it is an unshirkable responsibility! ”

Jiang Chong withdrew his gaze from afar, and his tone was serious. At this point, there is no need to hide it anymore. His ultimate goal was originally to fight the power of the crown prince. So many people in front of me who were killed for bewitchment were just unlucky substitutes for the dead.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Yan Suke, although he was shocked in his heart, his face did not show it at all. Just nodded casually. Soon after, as the twilight fell, the commander of the embroidered guard, who had been watching for a long time, turned around and left. Yan Zhu followed, and when he went downstairs, he finally glanced back at the tall laurel trees. The golden trees are reflected in the glazed tiles of the palace, which is very beautiful. But I don't know how many are left after this storm, and the branches and leaves have withered?

Jiang Chong's request to the emperor to send the Yulin army to assist was quickly approved. The emperor ordered Han Yan, the general of Yulin, to dispatch 500 Yulin soldiers, commanded by Han Yue, Marquis of Andao, and directly obeyed Jiang Chong's dispatch and assignment.

This Andao Marquis Han Yue is also the son of the Prince of Han. He and Han Yan were originally cousins, but these two people had different ambitions, and although they were in the same army, they didn't have much contact with each other.

Even if Han Yan had thousands of reluctance in her heart, she did not dare to openly disobey the emperor's order at this critical moment when the situation was unclear. Watching that cousin triumphantly lead the five hundred feathers of the forest army away, and after the battle with the embroidered guard, he went straight to the back of the palace. He couldn't help but feel a deep worry in his heart.

Han Yan knows very well that his body has already been labeled as a prince, if the crown prince Liu Ju really has a trouble, then according to his understanding of the emperor's character, this decisive and ruthless emperor will inevitably be wanton, and will never show mercy.

If Yuan Zhao was still in the court, would the situation be different from what it is now?

Such questions or expectations have surfaced in the minds of many people. Especially when the next day, a shocking news spread, in the panic at the same time, countless people's eyes were cast on the west of Chang'an City, extremely looking forward to the figure that once brought great hope to the city gate once again from the city gate into the .......

Some of the conspiracies in the world always happen in the deep darkness of the night. Just the night before, a nimble figure quietly appeared in several places in the palace, and after hurriedly finishing his hands and feet, he disappeared into the night silently.

"I would like to thank Andor Houken for your help this time...... Hehe! ”

"Where, where...... Commander Jiang is polite! In the future, Han will need more support from Master Jiang! ”

Han Yue, who was already a celebrity, faced the man in front of him respectfully, thinking that he had seized a rare opportunity.

In the dark night, when the stars and moon were gone, two ambitious people stood side by side, looking at the huge palace complex full of shadows, smiling at each other, and many things were agreed upon.

"When tomorrow dawns, let's get started...... The most important drama is expected to be more exciting...... Hahaha! ”
