Chapter 615: Mutiny
Now that the emperor's holy drive is in Fangshan, why is there an emergency distress signal on Fangshan? The commander Tongzhi panicked all of a sudden, and he was shocked and ran to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
However, on the four city walls, how could he be the only one who saw the emergency distress signal on the Fangshan city wall?
The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies suddenly became lively, and people kept coming to report the news, and the faces of the generals on duty were shocked.
Fangshan is guarded by the forbidden army, how can it send an emergency distress signal?
Mutiny?! This thought came to everyone's heart, could it be that someone mutinied and rebelled?
The generals came to General Lin's side in a panic and shouted, "General, an emergency call for help has been raised in Fangshan!" β
Lin Xiangnan said solemnly: "The emperor has a decree, no matter what happens, all the departments in the capital camp must not act without a decree!" β
"General, the emperor's holy drive is in Fangshan, if it weren't for the urgency of the situation, Fangshan would never raise a distress signal, general, it is likely that someone mutinied and rebelled, and the emperor's holy car is in danger!"
Lin Xiangnan said in a deep voice: "What? Do you want to resist the decree? Still don't feel like you trust me? β
For 20 years, the general has been the emperor's most trusted general, and the general has also been loyal to the emperor and has made great contributions to the imperial court.
"But, but ......"
Lin Xiangnan got up and said: "No, I, Lin Xiangnan, will never do anything that damages my conscience in my life!" β
The generals still hesitated and puzzled when they heard this, but they did not say anything more.
Lin Xiangnan relied on his prestige to suppress the doubtful generals, he turned around and walked out of the hall and looked in the direction of Fangshan.
The bright moonlight shone on his body, and the warm spring breeze blew on his face, but in such a spring night, his face could not suppress the sadness.
Although he couldn't see the swords and swords on Fangshan, nor could he hear the sound of turmoil on Fangshan, he knew that the emperor would die in Fangshan's palace tonight.
He had known that there would be such a day since a long, long time ago, but when it did, he still felt sad, even if it was the emperor's own choice.
The forbidden army in the palace was not afraid of death, but they were outnumbered, and the killed retreated, but they guarded the last line of defense.
Because after that line of defense was the emperor's bedchamber.
The guards of the forbidden army continued to die tragically, and Li Dian led them to retreat continuously, guarding the door of the dormitory.
The guards fell to the ground one by one, leaving Li Dian alone, who was covered in blood in more than ten wounds, and still stood still.
Ye Bei, who had been standing beside the second prince, said with a smile: "It's a man, you shouldn't die at the hands of a pawn, you all retreat!" β
The surrounding soldiers retreated like a tide, and Ye Bei's long knife came out of its sheath and slowly walked forward: "Ye Bei, Jiupin, send you on the road, your responsibility to enter has been completed, you can go with peace of mind!" β
Li Dian's unwilling head flew up, and his strong body fell heavily in front of the temple gate, and the gushing blood stained the palace gate red.
The last obstacle is gone, as long as you push open the door in front of you, the emperor is in front of you.
Victory is at hand.
The throne is at hand.
The second prince's hands trembled a little, and he felt both excited and surprised in his heart, and nervous.
Ye Bei put away his long knife and said with a smile: "Your Highness? β
The second prince woke up like a dream: "Open, open the door!" β
Ye Bei smiled: "Open the door!" β
A few soldiers rushed forward, and the door slowly opened.
Including the second prince, everyone looked up and looked inside. In the main hall, a figure dressed in a dragon robe sat on the dragon chair with some majesty.
That is the emperor, the ninety-five of the Great Zhou!
It was his father, looking at that figure, the second prince was surprised and nervous, the surprise was that his father was really in the hall, and the nervous thing was that he was finally going to face his father.
"Your Highness, please! The throne is at hand. Ye Bei said with a smile.
The second prince and Ye Bei walked towards the main hall together, and the generals behind them followed closely behind, pressing the hilt of their knives with their hands.
The emperor's gaze was very calm, and there was no panicked look on his face, but his face was a little ruddy.
Walking into the main hall, the second prince became even more nervous, because he had imagined a lot of things to see his father, but it was not the one in front of him.
He thought that his father would scold him hoarsely, that he would panic, that he would even beg for mercy and promise to make him the prince, and that his father would hide under the table......
However, he never thought that his father would sit on the dragon chair and watch him walk in with the soldiers with a calm face.
The second prince stopped, and said a little nervously: "Erchen respectfully asks his father to abdicate, and the emperor is located in Erchen, and Erchen is willing to serve his father as the emperor......"
Before the second prince's words were finished, Ye Bei snorted and laughed, "Is the second prince so naΓ―ve?" The Emperor? As long as the emperor shows up tomorrow, how can you suppress the hundreds of officials and nobles in the court? β
"Only when the emperor dies can you sit on the throne! If the emperor doesn't die tonight, tomorrow you will die! β
The second prince's face changed drastically, and his expression struggled.
The emperor said lightly: "You are Ye Bei, right?" β
Ye Bei was a little surprised and said, "Your Majesty actually knows about me?" Yes, I am Ye Bei, and I am sent to His Majesty Bintian on the order of the teacher! β
The emperor said lightly: "The young man is really sharp, you fled from the grassland in embarrassment, I naturally know you." β
Ye Bei's face changed slightly, and then he smiled: "The game of chess in the grassland is clever for His Majesty, of course, it is also His Majesty's chess pieces that are easy to use, but unfortunately, the game of chess in front of His Majesty is really not very good." β
The emperor laughed and said, "Really? When it comes to playing chess, the two old men of the temple really don't play very well! In this game of chess in the world, it is not certain who wins and who loses! β
The emperor's face became more and more ruddy, and Ye Bei also noticed a hint of the same, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty has already taken poison?" β
The emperor smiled and said, "How could the Emperor of the Great Zhou die at the hands of a junior like you?" I told them a word, I'm waiting for them underground. β
"I haven't seen the two priests of the temple in my life, but I will be able to meet underground soon!"
Ye Bei raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Don't be ashamed!" β
The emperor did not refute, his eyes swept over Ye Bei, swept over the generals behind him, and finally swept over the second prince, smiled, and passed away.
The emperor died, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, but there was something unpleasant, because the emperor died too peacefully, and there was no resentment or anger in the eyes of looking at them.
On the contrary, the emperor has always had a smile on the corner of his mouth, even if the emperor is dead now, he still has a smile on the corner of his mouth.
It was the smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth that made them feel a trace of shock.
Ye Bei stepped forward and stretched out his hand to try it, and confirmed: "The emperor is dead!" β
