Chapter 143: The National Capital

In the Great Jin Palace, Emperor Sima Long sat on the dragon chair, listened to the battle report from the ministers below, and knew the latest battle situation in Bianxi.

He was surprised that Yun Ye would launch a surprise attack on the Jin army during the big wedding, or was Yun Ye's big wedding just a cover to let the Jin army relax their vigilance, and then he would launch an attack by surprise?

Sima Long rubbed his slightly swollen temples and waved his hand to signal the ministers to retreat, leaving only his henchmen and cronies in the main hall.

He has been so tired and multifaceted these days, but now it can be said that he is exhausted. In the past few days, the country has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it can even be said that the history of the Great Jin Kingdom may be rewritten because of this.

Since Yunye fled, Sima Long gathered all his cronies, took control of the entire national capital, and secretly imprisoned those who opposed him, as well as those powerful ministers who formed a party for personal gain, and controlled the government.

The battle between Master and Yunye greatly weakened the power of the Liu clan, the prime minister who controlled the government, and Yunye's escape also gave him a reason to act against the Liu clan.

The royal cronies who had been prepared for a long time sent out a thunderous blow, and after controlling the unprepared Liu clan, they quickly controlled the entire national capital, and tightly blocked the news, so that the princes and ministers of the Quartet did not know what was going on in the national capital.

Sima Long, the Great Master and others had already planned it, and they had secretly dispatched the Ye family and several other families who had been supporting the royal family to enter the national capital to assist the royal family's dead soldiers.

At the beginning, they controlled the army guarding the national capital, and killed all the generals and soldiers who did not obey them.

This is the thing that makes Sima Long feel the most proud, since he ascended the throne, the government of the Great Jin Dynasty has been controlled by such big families and powerful ministers and generals in turn, so since he ascended the throne, he has been forbearing, and secretly contacted those families who support the royal family, and he also gathered a group of henchmen loyal to the royal family, and used them to slowly mediate with those powerful ministers to this day.

He was already very tired, but fortunately now he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, at least he was no longer like a puppet to be controlled and controlled, and he could really be a real emperor with his head held high, his waist straight, and his nostrils facing the sky.

"Your Majesty, do you see that at this critical juncture, the Western Army is attacking us, should we draw our forces to deal with them?"

After those ministers walked out, a confidant minister hurriedly asked the emperor, he was more anxious, now the imperial power is not completely stable, all variables may happen, they have to be cautious.

"The Western Army has just fought fiercely with the Kasians, and the battle report reports that the Kasians have suffered more than 100,000 casualties, killed 10,000 enemies, and lost 3,000 themselves. Now that they are attacking suddenly, it is not certain that they are gathering all their strength to attack us. ”

Another military general who was familiar with the battle situation in Bianxi hurriedly came out to analyze, he thought that the Western Army's rush operation was just to dismantle the time bomb that Dajin placed next to Bianxi, and there was no intention of expanding outward immediately, and they should not have the strength to expand outward immediately.

"Why can't we order those generals with heavy troops to go to the west to block the western army, now the trouble in the west is the biggest worry of our dynasty, as long as we can provide enough conditions, I believe that some people will be willing to do it."

"Under the heavy money, there will be brave men!"

Another minister stood up and said his suggestion loudly, and after speaking, he looked at the two people in front of him with some smugness, he felt that his plan was better than theirs, and it was also in line with the current situation.

Sima Long didn't say a word, just listened to a few henchmen below arguing there. A good plan has to be made like this, but now after listening to the advice of a few people, I don't feel very satisfied with him.

"It seems that this kind of major event can only rely on the national teacher, and these people can only do some errands."

Sima Long sighed secretly, the great master didn't come to the court because of his illness recently, but Sima Long knew why he didn't come to the court.

According to the narration of the great master, a powerful hidden sect in the Great Jin Dynasty has now joined the camp of the Western Army, and even Yun Ye, the main general of the Western Army, came out of this sect, and he is still the eldest disciple of the sect master. Yun Ye was able to leave the national capital in a grand manner, relying on his powerful master.

So now the great master is trying every means to recruit the masters of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes, and even with the ancestor of the Ye family, he lobbied those big sects everywhere to let them stand on the side of the royal family, and when the time comes, they can give the royal family some help and support.

"All Aiqing, let's go back first, when the great master comes back later, I will gather everyone to discuss this matter together, this matter is very important, and you can't be reckless."

Sima Long was a little tired, so he sent the ministers back, and arguing here would only disrupt his own plans.

Perfect for delaying time, success!

When the ministers heard the emperor speak, they withdrew one by one.

They don't dare to underestimate Sima Long now, and being able to wipe out the intricate forces in the national capital overnight with the power of thunder shows that he is not a character to be messed with, and the cowardly appearance before is just a mask for him.

Now he is not only the nominal supreme ruler of the Great Jin Kingdom, but the most authoritative and highest-ranking ruler of the Great Jin Kingdom in the true sense!

Although there are still many military princes who are similar to the state of secession outside, and there are many important ministers of the big clans in many places who do not submit to the management of the imperial court, there is no doubt that they do not dare to openly confront Sima Long now, even if their strength is stronger than the current Sima Long, they do not dare, because in that case, even if it is treason, they will be attacked by everyone.

"When will I be able to restore the glory of my Great Jin and recast the glory of our Sima family!"

As the ministers all turned to leave, Sima Long also got up and walked to the apse, it was time for him to go back and rest, the continuous events of the past few days made him excited and uneasy at the same time, now it is time to take a break and meet the next challenge in a better mental state.

Although the gates of the four sides of the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom are wide open, the number of sergeants on guard and inspection is several times more than usual, which makes people feel that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings. (To be continued.) )
