Chapter 1983 A telegram Rebellion
The palace was bombed beyond recognition, in ruins, and the formidable Praetorian Guards were turned into headless flies under the air strikes, dodging bombs dropped from high altitudes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Such a big movement alarmed the entire imperial capital, and the streets were also in chaos, the people were panicked and fled quickly, and the major shops were also closed. They went through martial law once, when many people were buried alive in collapsed houses. Now they all thought that the war between the eldest prince and the second prince was about to break out in the imperial capital, and of course they were afraid, and they just wanted to run home and hide, for fear of losing their lives by staying outside.
The families who supported the eldest prince were all frightened, and the person in charge turned pale. All along, the air strikes of the Star Collar have been a sharp sword hanging over the heads of various countries, and now they have finally seen the power of high-altitude bombing.
At this time, the order of the Great Prince had reached the major families, and although the city guards were quickly mobilized, all the cannons were pulled out, and quickly transported around the palace, it was still difficult to offset the fear in their hearts. In particular, the delay in the appearance of the silver-robed messenger made them even more suspicious.
And those families who have been suppressed are in a good mood, standing on a high place looking at the palace, everyone with a gloating smile......
The bombardment continued, and the city guards moved quickly. But just as the cannon was about to be transported to the periphery of the palace, the city guards in the southeast and southeast directions suddenly stopped moving.
It was the children of the Qi family who were in charge of the overall situation, and when they heard the news, they hurried over and asked angrily and loudly: "Who told you to stop, don't you know what the crime of violating military orders is?"
An officer walked out of the city guard and said with a sneer: "Of course I know the consequences of violating military orders, but Lord Commander, I advise you to stop for the time being, so as not to regret it in the future!"
The commander jumped like thunder and said loudly: "Fart, you dare to disobey the order, I will kill you now, where is the law enforcement team?"
At the sound of an order, there was a promise behind him, and dozens of soldiers raised their crossbows in their hands and aimed them at the officer.
"Whoa!" The soldiers behind the officer also raised their crossbows, and the two sides formed a confrontation.
The commander squinted, his face was pale, and he said in a deep voice: "Shen Ming, is this your intention, or your family's intention, the great crime of rebellion is to destroy the whole clan!"
The officer also had a calm face, and said lightly: "Qi San, this is not a rebellion, but a precipice to abandon the dark and turn to the light...... Listen to my advice, calm down and wait for a while, and you will know the reason!"
A trace of doubt flashed in the commander's eyes, he really couldn't figure out what Shen Ming meant......
Shortly after the palace was bombed, in the hall of the Shen family, all the high-ranking members of the family gathered in the lobby, and a piece of stationery was circulated in everyone's hands, and everyone showed a complicated expression of surprise and fear when they saw it.
"The ancestor of our family is still alive, in the hands of the second prince. This telegram was just sent from the Black Mountain Fortress, and it is estimated that many families know about it at this moment!" The Shen family master who was sitting on the main seat had a solemn expression, and his gaze slowly swept over the people below.
At the beginning of the search for the treasures in the northern mountains of Xuanyuan Tianzong, the empire was led by the second enshrinement, and almost all the top masters in the family were taken away, but in the end, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and the world evaporated. They all thought that their ancestor must have died in the hands of Jiang Xingchen, but they didn't expect that they were still alive.
As a big family, they have lost two high-end forces in a row in this section, both of which were killed by divine beasts when they encircled and suppressed the Marshal's Mansion. At this moment, I was overjoyed to learn that the ancestor was still alive.
However, the request of the second prince frightened him again. The telegram said that as long as he abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and handed over the rights in his hands afterwards, the second prince would not be guilty of the past and could retain the title.
If you abandon the darkness and turn to the light, you will have to take refuge in the second prince, in that case, the eldest prince will definitely not let go of the Shen family...... Not to mention, what he is most worried about is whether the promise of the second prince is credible?
"Xingchen led the capture alive of the nine silver-robed people who had cultivated in the Great Perfection...... Head of the house, this news can't be fake, right?" The Shen family's disciples below had already raised suspicions.
"It shouldn't be fake, otherwise where would the Star Leader still have the strength to bomb the palace...... And have you noticed that the palace was bombed, but the silver-robed messenger did not show up, it is likely that he learned the news of the star collar and ran away!" Next to the head of the family, an old man with white hair said.
"Hiss~" There was a gasping sound from below, if this is the case, wouldn't the Great Prince lose! The nine Great Perfections were all captured alive, how powerful is the Star Leader, the second prince has his support, and he doesn't have to fight with the major legions at all, and he can directly capture the imperial capital.
The family slammed the table, made a decision, and said loudly: "Immediately notify our people in the city guards, stop acting immediately, and stand by in place." ā
Judging from the current situation, the silver-robed envoy has been defeated, and the great prince has gone. The Shen family can only keep the family by doing what the second prince said, and any interests and rights are all floating clouds. And he had no choice, he could only trust the second prince. Fortunately, the ancestor of the family is still alive, and with him, the Shen family should not be too depressed in the future.
Just when the head of the Shen family gave the order, almost all the major families knew the content of the telegram sent by the second prince. Those families who have nothing to do with the eldest prince are all smiling from ear to ear after seeing it, everyone knows that Xingchen Ling will not cheat, and it should be true that the nine Great Perfections were captured, which means that the great prince is gone, and he will definitely lose to the second prince.
And many of the families under the command of the eldest prince have made the same choice as the Shen family, especially those whose ancestors are still alive, who defected from the eldest prince without hesitation, and sent people to inform the children of the city guards to stop their actions and wait for news!
Among these families, the most uncomfortable belong to the Jin family and the Qi family, they are the sworn friends of the eldest prince and the imperial concubine, although they know that the defeat of the eldest prince is a foregone conclusion, but they dare not take the liberty of taking refuge in the second prince, in case the second prince regrets it afterwards.
"We can't take refuge in any case, we have participated in all the plans, and the second prince will definitely not let us go!" Most of the Jin family and the Qi family share this view.
"But you have also seen that the other side is bombing at high altitude, and we will definitely not be able to support it for long. "There are also opposing voices.
"Then you can't trust the second prince, don't forget that we still have children in the major legions. Even if the emperor is captured, we still have a way to save our lives!"
"I don't think so, there are too many high-end forces in the Xingchen Command, and it is easy for people to assassinate our children in the army......"
Just when the two sides were arguing, a roaring explosion sounded in the courtyard of the Jin family and the Qi family, and immediately the two families were in chaos, and the cries, screams, and roars came one after another. The expressions of the two high-level executives who were holding a meeting in the lobby changed greatly, and their faces were like ashes. (To be continued.) )
