Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Battle of the Imperial City

In the Daming Palace, in the Taichun Palace, Gao Shang has been a whole afternoon and has not received any news about the whereabouts of Gundam.

He looked nervous in the hall, pacing back and forth, and suddenly a small official ran in, knelt down and reported, "Report to Your Highness, the eyes and ears we sent out to monitor the prince have all been killed!"

He panicked again, and almost knelt in front of the national teacher, and hurriedly shouted, "Master, what can I do about this? Those old things gathered in the Prime Minister's Mansion after the next dynasty, and Zuo Zhantian is strong in martial arts, what if they are planning something unfavorable to us, then what should we do!"

The national teacher shouted at him in disgust, "What are you panicking about? In broad daylight, can they still plan a rebellion?"

He said impatiently, "Go and see how the platform is built, don't be surprised, let alone act rashly!"

Wang Shangshu also echoed, "Yes, yes, we as villains have not done anything bad, can they be more ruthless than me as good people?"

Ruthless? Gundam and the gang are indeed much more ruthless than the noble ones, this group of old ministers were so frightened that they trembled in the house, and even the convenience was directly solved against Prime Minister Huo Cheng's antique vase, which made Prime Minister Huo Cheng's heart ache and kept scolding.

At this point, the old ministers gradually calmed down, how could they not guess that the idea of rebellion must have come from Prince Gundam, and the young man who had sex Pei was just a black pot.

But his black cauldron is also extremely important, after all, this rebellious word must not be exported by the emperor's heir, nor can it be said by Zuo Zhantian, who has made great military achievements.

The matter has come to this point and cannot be reversed, but the old ministers finally feel that it is very inappropriate to talk about such a rebellious thing in broad daylight.

Therefore, the stalemate lasted until midnight, and Prime Minister Huo Cheng sighed helplessly and asked, "Then what plan does General Zuo have for overthrowing the tyranny of His Second Highness?"

After Zuo Zhantian looked around at this group of old ministers, he was very satisfied with the look in their eyes that they were expecting now, and he said awe-inspiringly, "Although the noble and that demon man acted viciously, they controlled the emperor to disturb the court. But they don't understand state affairs, let alone use soldiers, not only the pillars of the country present are not satisfied with them, but there are also more enthusiastic sergeants who have resentment against them in their hearts. ”

At this point, the door was pushed open again, and ten tall and muscular men entered from the outside, including the officer of the Golden Guard who had met him on the street in the morning.

Those men entered the door and walked to Zuo Zhantian's side, and saluted Gundam, Zuo Zhantian, and Huo Chengxiang in turn.

Zuo Zhantian introduced to everyone: "These ten are all generals who are responsible for guarding the imperial city, and they are also brothers who were born and died with me on the battlefield. They have already arranged everything, and tomorrow if I give the signal, they will occupy the palace hall as quickly as possible. ”

Seeing these ten heroic generals, the old ministers had some confidence, and asked puzzledly, "Since General Zuo has arranged it, do you want us old things to be useful?"

At this moment, Gundam stood up from his chair, walked to the middle of the crowd, stretched out his right index finger, and explained, "Because of the word 'Li'!"

The old ministers looked at each other and asked, "What does Your Highness mean by this?"

He raised his voice and said to everyone, "There must be a reason for everything, and there must be reason for what to do, the Son of Heaven is commanded by heaven, and if I want to replace him, I must follow the principles of heaven." Therefore, I need to take all the people as the heavens, take the hundred officials as the reason, and take over the imperial power according to the principles of heaven!"

At this point, there was silence in the room, and everyone present was stunned, and the young man in front of them made them feel both familiar and unfamiliar. What is familiar is his face and figure, and what is unfamiliar is his mind and momentum.

In contrast, the noble man who lived in the Taichun Palace really had too many scruples, and he also discussed with the national teacher and Wang Shangshu how to continue to suppress Gundam through the emperor's mouth.

The night was extraordinarily long, Pei Zhenzhen sat alone on the steps outside the house with a sad face, what he was worried about was not the failure of Zuo Zhantian's plan, but the cultivation of that great power teacher.

He thought to himself, "That demon national teacher's cultivation shouldn't be good, if he is a Yuanying master, destroying us is a matter of being caught, how can he do some small actions, let us live until now." ”

Then the roast chicken was sacrificed, and it was still as luster as when it came, and there was no reaction when it was sent into the spiritual power, and it was as hard as steel when it was broken, but fortunately it didn't open its mouth to bite, otherwise it would have broken a tooth.

At this time, Zuo Zhantian pushed the door and walked out, sat down beside him with a faint smile, and asked, "Is the little brother hungry?

Pei Zhenzhen shook his hand again and again, and said with a smile, "Not hungry, not hungry!"

Then he asked Zuo Zhantian, "Since you have already arranged it, why did Gundam still tell me that this time it was nine deaths?"

Hearing this, Zuo Zhantian's face gradually became solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "The prince told you that you will die and live because we are only one percent sure. ”

"What!" Pei Zhenzhen couldn't help but scream, and covered his mouth when he felt inappropriate.

Zuo Zhantian continued, "Most of the generals in the Imperial City are people from His Royal Highness, and our number is limited, less than five hundred. If you can't control the main hall at the first time and take down the demons, you will be counterattacked by the 10,000 forbidden troops in the imperial city! But the main hall is heavily guarded, how can we easily capture it......

Pei Zhenzhen was surprised and exclaimed, "Then you are still in a hurry to rebel?"

Zuo Zhantian sighed helplessly and said, "This is our only chance, they never imagined that we would rebel as soon as we came back." If they miss this time, they will have more and more control over His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future, and then we will only be able to watch the lives of the Ming Kingdom be destroyed. ”

Pei Zhenzhen once expressed all the puzzles in his heart and asked, "Since you must all have demons to make trouble, why don't you invite the fairy gate to help?"

Zuo Zhantian shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Prime Minister Huo, they have already visited many immortal sects, but those big sects say that they don't interfere in human affairs, and the small sects don't dare to ask, so in the end, it still depends on us mortals." ”

Pei Zhenzhen remembered that he had indeed heard in the Cangyun Sect that three hundred years ago, the Great War between the Immortals and Demons almost wiped out all the mortal countries. Mortals are the foundation of cultivators, and the country they live in is gone, and who will cultivate immortals and demons again. Therefore, both major factions made an oath that they would never interfere in the affairs of the mortal state.

In the early morning of the next day, the light of the morning light had just been sprinkled on the earth, and before the rooster had crowed, everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion was ready.

The ten generals had already returned to their posts, the ministers had sorted out their official uniforms, Pei Zhenzhen had changed into soldiers' clothes, and Gundam had put on a cyan python robe and walked in front of everyone.

They set off early, didn't drive, and all of them followed Gundam on foot. Zuo Zhantian and Pei Zhenzhen were guarding the left and right sides of the Gundam respectively, and the remaining dozen or so Wenchen followed him in two rows.

Such a formation was quite impressive, attracting the people who got up early to stop and watch, and there were many discussions. This is also the purpose of Gundam, he wants the people to see, let the people spread it, he is back, the prince of the Ming Kingdom is back.

Profit the country, do not seek wealth and nobility, do not care about life and death!

The palace of the Ming Kingdom, covering an area of 100 miles, is majestic and magnificent.

In the golden and brilliant Fengtian Peak, jade is paved with jade, red pillars and golden beams, and on the dragon chair standing high, a middle-aged man with a haggard face is half-lying.

The man was dressed in a dragon robe and a golden crown on his head, but he did not have any majesty. His complexion was sallow, his body was thin, and his lips were not bloody. This is the result of a long time with the dead, and the queen, who was resurrected by evil magic, absorbs his life essence every day.

The noble group also waited for the arrival of Gundam here, only to hear the loud shouts of the messengers echoing over and over again outside the main hall.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the ministers are here!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the ministers are here!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the ministers are here!"

This voice was like a cone in the ears of Gao Shang and Wang Shangshu, they were so nervous that they broke out in a cold sweat, while the great master smiled coldly, and said to himself, "The eye-catching guy is finally here!"

Pei Zhenzhen was arranged outside the hall to guard the hall with the golden armor guard general yesterday.

Gundam had not reached the tenth layer of condensation, and he could not detect the cultivation of the national teacher, but after the national teacher saw that he only had the cultivation of the sixth layer of condensation, he just smiled contemptuously.

When Gundam saw the half-reclining dragon chair, shaped like a corpse, he bowed down deeply with tears, clenched his fists until his nails were all inserted into the flesh, and shouted in his mouth, "Unfilial sons and daughters visit their father, long live my father, long live long live!"

He got up again and looked at Gao Shang, his eyes were so fierce that Gao Shang retreated again and again, and almost fell.

The national teacher standing beside the emperor sneered and said, "The prince returned to Daming thousands of miles away, without a day of rest, and worked tirelessly to come to the audience, which is really commendable." ”

Gao Dam didn't even look at him, bowed deeply to his father on the dragon throne, and said loudly, "It's the sons and ministers who are not filial, so that these demons and evil will be in charge, and they will bring disaster to the country and the people!"

Hearing this, the emperor on the dragon throne suddenly trembled slightly, tears began to flicker in his cloudy eyes, and his fingers were slowly raised towards him.

The national teacher was stunned, and immediately blocked in front of the emperor, and shouted angrily, "Bold Gundam, Lang Lang Qiankun, in the Fengtian Palace, how dare you talk nonsense, what kind of demon is in charge!"

He glanced at Gao Shang again, and Gao Shang immediately stepped forward and said fiercely, "My father has handed over the government to me to deal with, and asked me to abolish your crown prince position and expel Daming forever!"

Gundam didn't speak, but Huo Shangshu stood beside Gundam, and the old man's voice was strong and powerful, and said, "The position of the crown prince can only be abolished by His Majesty the Emperor. Caused by the way of heaven and the will of the people, it is related to the survival of the Ming Dynasty, and the crown prince should inherit the throne of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom!"

Subsequently, the ministers in the palace, including those who did not participate in the discussion yesterday, dozens of civil and military officials shouted in unison, "Yes! The crown prince should inherit the throne of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom!"

This situation became too sudden, and even the national teacher was completely panicked, pointing at the ministers in front of him, and shouted in a trembling voice, "You, do you want to rebel!"

Zuo Zhantian sneered contemptuously and said angrily, "Anti, we want to straighten out!"

Gundam raised the sledgehammer and slammed the handle of the hammer on the ground with both hands, smashing the jade slab under his feet into pieces, and after a dull loud noise, he shouted "Kill!" with all his might.
