It was originally a court meeting that decided the fate of Nanzhao, but it was interrupted by the two ministers Yao Cheng and Xu Lin, which led to the failure of the prince's ascension to the throne and ended up lonely.

In the end, after the civil and military officials of Nanzhao discussed, the crown prince and several important ministers jointly handled the government affairs.

Cining Palace

"How can this be reasonable, I am the prince of Nanzhao, these old sour and rotten civil officials, because of an unwarranted edict, they protested to the death against the enthronement of the palace."

As soon as the prince walked into the palace, he dispersed all the palace maids and eunuchs, and sat on the chair on the right side of the queen, feeling indignant.

"Xu'er, now is not the time to be angry, we still have a lot to do."

The queen stared at Nanxu and said word by word.

"I really need to do something, Queen Mother, I'll go to the Taihe Palace."

The queen nodded, understanding why the prince went to the Taihe Palace.

Yufu

"Dad, if I don't leave, how can I leave you alone in Shangjing to face this storm."

Since the news of the emperor's death came from the palace, the people in the capital were panicked. And You Tianming knew that he was at the center of this storm, so he transferred all his family to the garrison of the Northern Army, Yizhou, as early as possible, but You Qingyun was reluctant to go.

"Your Majesty secretly summoned me the night before he became seriously ill."

When You Qingyun heard this, he understood why his father did this on the first day after the emperor's death.

Suddenly remembering the rumored edict outside, he looked up at his father in a daze, You Tianming saw the doubt in his eyes, and then shook his head.

"Dad, why did the emperor secretly summon you?"

You Tianming smiled bitterly and took the teacup that You Qingyun had poured over.

"Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind."

You Qingyun then understood, it turned out that the emperor was seriously ill and secretly summoned not for anything else, but because he was not at ease, when this secret summoning was learned by the crown prince and the second prince, the result can be imagined.

Tai Chi Temple

"What, the night before my father's death, I secretly summoned Yongguan Hou You Tianming!"

The prince's shocked eyes repeatedly nodded from the chief eunuch Wang Sheng's confirmed nodding action, and his face became extremely solemn.

You Tianming is the commander of the 300,000 Northern Army, invincible, and the god of war of Nanzhao. Even if he is the prince of Nanzhao, even if he ascends the throne and becomes the son of heaven with supreme imperial power, it is not something he can easily move.

The crown prince paced back and forth in the palace, and the edict he had to get his hands on, no matter what was written on it, about his life and death, no matter who dared to hinder him, it must be cleared.

At this time, he was thinking about giving this Nanzhao God of War a fair and honest charge. He knew very well that his father was jealous of this general who conquered the Great North, when was it?

The triumphant return of the Northern Hebei Plain? Is it an ambush in Tianyang Mountain? Or when the 50,000 northern army was divided to go to Xiliangguan?

Since ancient times, many of them have been the same.

At the same time that the crown prince learned about the secret edict You Tianming, the second prince Nanyu naturally also knew about it, but he didn't see any impatience.

"It's been a long time since I've heard the princess touch the qin, this song should only be in the sky, and the world can hear it a few times."

The second prince was in the pavilion at this time, looking at his princess leisurely, listening to her stroking the qin and clapping her hands again and again.

"Now up and down the capital, the undercurrent of civil and military officials is surging, and the people are panicking, as the second prince of Nanzhao, the second son of the first emperor, aren't you in a hurry?"

Nan Yu smiled calmly after hearing this, and seemed to respond confidently:

"Don't worry, there is someone who is more anxious than me, and he will help me clear the obstacles."

The princess lowered her eyes for a moment, and then she understood who the second prince was referring to, that is, the prince of the East Palace of the current prince.

Even the second prince himself does not want to directly face the backlash of the 300,000 Northern Army, if it were not for his father-in-law being the general of Huaihua and the 300,000 commander of the Southern Central Army, it is estimated that he would not be qualified to play.

Although the battle for the throne is above the court, but behind it is still fighting for military forces, and there is also a general of Yuanwu on the prince's side, and the official of the three continents led by Feng Sheng.

After the second prince finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the sky outside the pavilion and muttered to himself.

A rare warm sun appeared in the sky, and the warm glow spread all over the capital, and also put a light yellow coat on the vermilion palace walls.

But it didn't shine into some dark corners, some cold-blooded people.

The next day, the court meeting of the Taihe Hall was carried out as usual, and there was no harmony in the court, and the civil and military officials were silent.

The atmosphere in the court today is particularly weird, and it is scary, because there is one more heavyweight, and the crown prince will Yongguan Hou You Tianming came to the court to discuss matters.

"General Yongguan Hou You heard that before his father died, he secretly summoned you, so I guess that edict is with you."

The prince secretly summoned You Tianming that day, but he didn't come, so he could only salute first and then soldier. intends to force him to take out the edict above the court, no matter what the content is, if it is not good for him, Yu Linwei of the palace is his hole card.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen has no edict, just reminiscing about the past, that's all."

You Tianming stood in the first position of the military attaché, facing the prince's aggressiveness, and responded calmly and leisurely.

"Yongguan Hou, the edict of the first emperor is the life and death of Guannan Zhao, please take it out to appease the hearts of the ministers."

As soon as the prince's words fell, seeing that You Tianming was indifferent, he stared at him coldly, and the courtiers were also discussing in a whisper when they heard the words.

At this time, the first person to come out was Qin Fu, the secretary of the military department, but You Tianming ignored him directly, and he didn't look at him, so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, since General You despises the imperial power and hides the edict, it is not a subordinate, why don't you invite him to our Dali Temple to sit!"

At this moment, Xue Hong, the head of Dali Temple of the prince's faction, looked at You Tianming and said.

"You dare, the Marquis of Yongguan is the god of war of Nanzhao, how can you and other rats talk and move."

When Yuan Chongxing heard this, he shouted angrily at Xue Hong, at this moment of life and death, he could no longer stay out, in the eyes of others, he had always been You Tianming's person.

At this moment, after Qin Fu shouted outside the hall, thousands of Yulin guards poured in one after another outside the Taihe Palace, and Wang Zhizheng was at the forefront.

I saw Qin Fu give an order.

The sound of the reeds of crossbow arrows sounded in Titicaca, and in such a wide and silent hall, the unarmed civil and military officials looked very faint, but they were extremely terrifying.

"Yongguan Hou, ask one last question, and take out the edict."

Qin Fu saw that You Tianming still didn't pay attention to him, and with a wave of his hand angrily, Yu Linwei surrounded You Tianming, and the other courtiers were so frightened that they hurriedly hid in the corner of the hall, trembling.

You Tianming turned to look at Wang Zhi, grabbed the dagger with three fingers, and gently made close contact with the muscles of the officers and soldiers.

"Commander Wang, are you sure you want to do this?"

Wang Zhi met You Tianming's cold eyes and bowed in response.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the crown prince, the prince of Nanzhao, and he should ascend the throne, and please understand the Marquis of Yongguan."

Wang Zhi still didn't change his face, and persuaded him one by one.

You Tianming nodded when he heard this, didn't say a word, just raised his feet and walked out of the hall.

Yu Linwei surrounded one after another, his ears accurately caught a familiar sound, so his heart tightened, which caused his right hand to pause, and stuned several Yu Linwei with one palm.

The use of crossbows was strictly forbidden in Kyoto, except for the Habayashi Guard, who was allowed to defend the Imperial Palace by special order. No one else in the capital is allowed to use it privately.

The crown prince may have mobilized the forces of his army and infiltrated Kyoto. He didn't have time to think about Yu Linwei's problem, but subconsciously felt the cold.

With just one kick, the square, hard stone slab in the temple cracked through it, and the corners of the square were raised, and it was slashed at those who pounced on them!

When he walked around the encirclement, he seemed to be relaxed and casual, but in fact, he was relying on unusually fast speed and strong precise control, so he needed such a strong and domineering kick to stop his body in a state of high-speed transportation.

The transition between these two extremes made the air around him tear for no reason.

The besieging Yu Lin Wei, who had been following him like water waves, did not follow at this moment, and fell forward in embarrassment, leaving a three-foot open space in front of You Tianming.

The sound of the wind breaking through the earth, no, into the earth, his feet were like raw crops, and dozens of terrifying crossbow arrows were born, which narrowly missed his body.

And his right hand was still open, like a sharp dagger.

And the Yulin guards behind him couldn't hold their feet, and directly crashed into him who was suddenly still! With two muffled sounds, two figures flew up and shattered in the twilight sky...... Countless shocking curves are drawn.

Before the next round of crossbow arrows came, You Tianming glanced at Wang Zhi from a distance, his toes were on the ground a little, to everyone's surprise, and with the two "broken shadows" that were shocked by himself, they flew out towards the alley in the opposite direction.

In mid-air, the broken flesh and bones fell to the ground, crackling.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of swishing through the air started, more than a dozen seven-grade masters climbed the four corners of the city wall of the Taihe Palace, and chased towards You Tianming, who was running not far away.

The crossbow arrows of the city guard, like a short spear, pierced the flesh and blood of men and horses, and pierced deeply into the gaps between the bluestone slabs on the ground of the palace square on the square.

You Tianming was summoned to enter the palace this time, and everyone he brought was blocked out of the deep palace. Although he was the top master of the eighth grade, he did not dare to stay here for a long time, because there had never been a successful assassination of the emperor.
