In front of the Taimiao, Chen Mo bowed to Queen Xu and said, "Queen Mother, my father-in-law and General Lu have led 26,000 forbidden troops to come, and now they have rushed to the vicinity of the capital.

I also hope that Niangniang can make an edict to let the 26,000 forbidden troops temporarily be stationed outside the capital, and let the general of the Chinese army help dispatch grain and grass. ”

Although it was the king of Pingxi who wanted to seek power and usurp the throne, he also had many cronies and diehards, and he was able to mobilize many border troops.

And the combat power of the border army is far stronger than that of the imperial forbidden army.

The border soldiers who can survive the fight with foreign races, not to mention that everyone has martial arts cultivation, but they are definitely elite veterans who have seen blood.

Now there are about 30,000 border troops stationed near the capital, and even if the king of Pingxi can only mobilize half of them, it is enough to cause great damage.

Recently, the imperial forbidden army still has to be stationed near the capital as much as possible.

"Okay, this palace will go and make a will." Empress Xu smiled and nodded.

If the prince dies today and the crown prince does not succeed to the throne, of course the queen can also issue an edict and order the courtiers to do things.

Of course, Empress Xu also understood that the decree she made could not force her courtiers to do some extremely difficult things.

Otherwise, with the current situation, those important ministers of the court may not accept the order, and may even be forced to stand on the side of King Pingxi.

Fortunately, he just sent grain and grass to transport the baggage, and even if he didn't say it, the Chinese generals would take the initiative to do it.

26,000 forbidden soldiers, they will never starve themselves, if the court does not give food, then they will find their own way.

After explaining to Queen Xu, Chen Mo arranged for someone to send a message to his father-in-law, so that he could find an opportunity to quietly enter the capital.

Now that the situation in the city is complicated, Chen Mo can only let him enter the city secretly to discuss the situation with him.

"General Chen, King Pingxi sent a staff member and said he wanted to meet with you." Zhao Wen hurriedly walked to Chen Mo's side, bowed down and bowed.

"Oh!" Chen Mo looked a little surprised, it seemed that King Pingxi couldn't hold back after all, and sent someone to lobby him.

"General, do you see this person?" Zhao Wen lowered his voice and asked again.

"Nope." Chen Mo shook his head without hesitation.

He could even guess that the staff of the king of Pingxi came to lobby him, and he would inevitably promise high-ranking officials and good fortunes, and he might even directly make the marquis and prince.

But the problem is that when the crown prince ascends the throne, he can get these things himself, so why plot with him and bear the name of a traitor.

"Xia Guan understands." Zhao Wen bowed and left in a hurry.

He didn't stay long before he went and returned, with a letter in his hand.

"My lord, the staff, let us give you this letter." Zhao Wen handed out the envelope with both hands.

Chen Mo opened the envelope, and the information on it was the same as he thought.

It is nothing more than to criticize the current queen and crown prince first, and then boast about the three princes.

Let Chen Mo abandon the light and turn to the dark to help the third prince ascend the throne.

As long as the third prince ascends the throne, Chen Mo will be crowned the title of the prince of the country, and inside and outside the court, except for the general of the Chinese army, Chen Mo can choose other official positions at will.

In addition, the secret vault of the Son of Heaven can also let Chen Mo choose everything, and if he has any requests, he can mention them now, and King Pingxi will do everything possible to meet them.

I have to say that this condition can be said to be quite good.

Chen Mo can also roughly guess what King Pingxi thinks now, which is nothing more than painting cakes.

Anyway, the power of the court is not in his hands now, so he doesn't feel distressed no matter how he promises.

As long as he can win over Chen Mo, he will dare to open any conditions.

Chen Mo read it roughly, and there was no other information on the letter except for his own solicitation.

There is no need to burn this letter, it can be kept for the time being, and it can be used as evidence that King Pingxi intends to seek power and usurp the throne and collude with himself as a military general.

Of course, this kind of evidence can only play a role of icing on the cake, as long as Chen Mo can kill King Pingxi, even if he takes a piece of honey locust and says that this is a poison made by King Pingxi, and is ready to assassinate the queen and Niangniang, it can also be used as evidence.

On the contrary, if he can't solve the king of Pingxi, then even if there is ironclad evidence, there is still nothing to be done.

The world is reasonable, but the truth is only based on the equality of both sides.

If the two sides are not equal, whether the strong are reasonable or not depends entirely on the ideas of the strong themselves.

As long as the strength is strong enough, then you have unreasonable power.

After putting away the letter, Chen Mo still practiced by the Taimiao as before.

The time soon came to evening, and Sun Shouren and Lu Chuan quietly arrived in the palace.

"Have you broken through the innate realm?" When Sun Shouren saw Chen Mo, he hurriedly asked.

During this time, it was rumored throughout the capital inside and outside that Chen Mo was an innate martial artist.

Regarding this news, Chen Mo took the initiative to release it, not to mention that even if he didn't release it, he couldn't hide it at all, and there were too many people who saw him shoot that day.

Instead of hiding it, it is better to admit this matter generously, but it will make King Pingxi cast a mouse.

Sun Shouren walked all the way into the capital, and naturally many acquaintances revealed the news to him, so that he could get the current situation.

King Pingxi sought power and usurped the throne, and wanted to not set up a crown prince and put the three princes on the throne.

What he was thinking in his heart was already known to passers-by.

Sun Shouren was naturally angry about this, as a close confidant of the Son of Heaven, it was impossible for him to see this happen no matter what.

However, the situation is stronger than people, and his original plan was to try his best to support the prince to leave the capital, and then widely distribute a document to summon loyal ministers from all over the country to Qin Wang.

After all, he is not an innate powerhouse, and he doesn't know other innate powerhouses, this is the only way he can come up with it.

However, immediately after that, the second news brought him an even greater shock, that is, Chen Mo broke through the innate realm.

The previous news made him angry, and this news left him incomprehensible.

Sun Shouren knew from the beginning that Chen Mo was very talented, and in less than two years, he had never had much contact with martial arts, and he had practiced all the way to the acquired realm.

However, he never expected that after Chen Mo cultivated to the acquired realm, he would be able to break through the innate realm so quickly, which was too unreasonable.

It stands to reason that martial arts cultivation is more difficult the further you go.

Even if Chen Mo had never been exposed to martial arts cultivation in two years, he had never been exposed to martial arts cultivation to the acquired perfection, and he had broken through the internal breath and pulse in a row.

But it will never be so easy for him to break through the innate realm, at least he will need to practice penance for a long time.

However, none of this happened, and the more Chen Mo continued to cultivate, the faster it seemed to be.

This made him a little unacceptable, in fact, through the information he had learned these days, he had determined that Chen Mo must have innate strength.

Otherwise, he guarded the palace alone, even if there was a tiger talisman that could control part of the formation of the palace, I am afraid that he would not be able to stop the king of Pingxi from making a move on the queen and the crown prince.

Only he is also an innate cultivator, even if there is a partial gap with the old congenital of Pingxi Wang, it is definitely not big.

In addition, being in the palace city has the advantage of the formation, even the king of Pingxi does not dare to do it easily.

This is definitely a good thing, Sun Shouren was shocked when he learned about this, but he couldn't hide his joy and excitement.

A congenital powerhouse, that is the top figure among martial artists, Chen Mo has this cultivation, even if he does not have any family qualifications.

Even if he just relied on cultivation, it was enough for the imperial court to award him a high-ranking official.

What's more, Chen Mo also made the merit of escorting the dragon this time, it can be said that as long as the prince can ascend to the throne, then Chen Mo will definitely be a supreme minister in the future.

And he has a righteous son of the innate realm, although when he said this, Sun Shouren felt that he was talking a little in a dream.

With this identity alone, even if he is only a fourth-grade official now, even the general of the Chinese army, a second-rank official, has to give him face.

It's just that Chen Mo's speed of breaking through the innate realm was too fast, and he couldn't accept it for a while.

"That's right, some time ago, the child did have a sense of understanding, and there was a breakthrough in cultivation." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"That's a good thing, that's a good thing!" Even if he had known the news before, but now that he heard Chen Mo speak in person, Sun Shouren was still quite happy.

Compared with the excited Sun Shouren, Lu Chuan is obviously much more restrained.

Now in terms of cultivation and strength, Chen Mo is far higher than him.

The relationship between him and Chen Mo is far less close than that of Sun Shouren, so he can't be unrestrained.

"Father-in-law, the child asked you to quietly enter the city this time, mainly for two things, one is to mobilize your forbidden army to station near that group of border troops and observe them carefully.

Once the border army makes a move, it is best for the forbidden army to try to counteract as much as possible, at least to resist a little, and never allow the border army to enter the city.

The second is that if the king of Pingxi really rebelled, he would immediately tell them that the court would only punish the evil.

For those soldiers who were deceived by the king of Pingxi, as long as they put down their weapons, the court would never hold them accountable. ”

Chen Mo looked solemn and explained carefully and carefully.

King Pingxi has many cronies in the border army, but it does not mean that all the border troops are willing to accompany him to do this rebellion.

If the court said that it would only punish the first evil and not pursue others, then the border army willing to act with King Pingxi would definitely be much less.

Every frontier soldier is an elite cadre, and it is really not worth losing in the internal fighting.

In addition, the forbidden army was kept an eye on the border army, also to prevent them from taking the opportunity to enter the city and cause greater damage and losses to the capital.

If nothing else, even a few fires would be enough to displace hundreds of people.

"Okay, I'll find a way to do these things in secret." Sun Shouren did not hesitate at all and nodded decisively.

He is a diehard loyalist of the Son of Heaven, and his ability may not be the strongest, but his loyalty is definitely enough.

Lu Chuan didn't say much at the moment, just nodded silently beside him.

"This time, we waited for the forbidden army to have food and grass, which was arranged by the general of the Chinese army, and he also quietly asked someone to send a letter, not for me but for you."

Sun Shouren habitually glanced at the doors and windows, made sure that the partition wall had no ears, and handed over a letter in a low voice.

Chen Mo put away the letter and nodded slightly, Sun Shouren didn't stay in the palace for long, it was already evening, and he had to return to the city before the curfew.

After they left, Chen Mo opened the envelope alone.

The letter does not contain much information, but there are three main ones.

First, the general of the Chinese army said that he was still loyal to the Son of Heaven and the imperial court.

The reason why he didn't enter the palace to meet the queen and the Son of Heaven during this time was because he didn't want to be paid too much attention to King Pingxi.

The second is because Chen Mo, a congenital powerhouse, showed up and expressed his support for the prince and the queen with a clear attitude.

Many courtiers in the court who originally supported the Son of Heaven have now gathered, and they originally couldn't do anything, because there was no innate strong person to preside over the overall situation.

But now that there is Chen Mo, a congenital powerhouse, the situation is different.

If King Pingxi really wants to abolish the crown prince and set up three princes, they will stand up against it.

The third is that King Pingxi has been connecting hundreds of civil and military officials in the court during this time, and in three days at most, when the next court meeting comes, he may open his mouth to propose to abolish the crown prince and let the three princes succeed to the throne.

This letter is quite valuable, know these things in advance, prepare early, and when the time comes, King Pingxi will not be too busy.

I have to say that the general of the Chinese army is indeed a loyal minister of the Son of Heaven.

Although King Pingxi kept a close eye on him, he still took the risk and first found a way to send the queen and the crown prince out of the city.

After discovering that Chen Mo had returned with the queen and the crown prince, and that there were innate strong people on his side, he immediately took action and began to connect with the loyal ministers in the court.

In doing so, he is indeed worthy of the trust that the Son of Heaven has placed in him.

Chen Mo read the letter carefully, and immediately returned to the Taimiao to discuss countermeasures with Empress Xu.

said that it was a discussion, but in fact, it was more about informing her of the matter, and the specific decision was made by Chen Mo.

In the next few days, the surface of the capital was stable, but in fact, the undercurrent was turbulent and the waves were non-stop.

It wasn't until three days later that hundreds of officials went to court.
