Seeing the large number of black-clothed and gold-armored forbidden troops who suddenly appeared around the camp, the soldiers of the Western Route Army who had already been frightened by the head of their own commander hanging on the top of the flagpole just stood there indifferently.

Of the 80,000 people, not a single one tried to take up arms to resist.

And Jiwang Haoxing Mingren, who was sitting outside Jingyang City, had already been frightened by the early morning raid launched by the Loyalty League.

Before he could fully recover his senses, he was suddenly told that the enemy army was coming again!

This time, it was no longer a raid, but a complete encirclement.

The other party had at least 30,000 people, and wrapped his 20,000 horses besieging the city, thus cutting off their connection with the 80,000 Western Route Army on the other side of the Jingyang River.

Judging from the banner played by the other party, the person who came should be the Gyeongju army originally stationed more than 100 miles away in the north, and the leader of the troops turned out to be his uncle of the Seven Kings who can fight habitually, Prince Ding, Haoxing Xiaoyu!

As soon as he heard this name, Haoxing Mingren sat down on the ground even though his legs were weak.

Seeing this, Vice Li Dudu, who was escorting on the side, wanted to step forward to help, but he himself had just injured his right wrist by Gu Ning's Xuantie dagger not long ago, and he almost had his right hand removed.

So he could only shout loudly for the soldiers waiting outside the tent to come in, and then helped His Royal Highness King Ji, who was paralyzed by fright, to his feet.

At this moment, Haoxing Mingren couldn't care about any face, so he stepped forward tremblingly and grabbed Deputy Dutong Li, and asked, "When will General Xing's men and horses arrive?"

Before Vice President Li could reply, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the tent.

Immediately, a man strode in from outside the tent.

When Vice President Li saw that the person who came in was the captain of General Fuyuan's personal guard, he just wanted to ask about the other party's intention, but suddenly heard a terrified scream from His Royal Highness King Ji, who was standing on the side.

It turned out that at this moment, in the two hands of the captain of the guard, there was a bloody human head each!

Although the two heads looked hideous and terrifying, Haoxing Akihito could still recognize that they once belonged to the two Fuyuan generals Xing Chengbiao and Dongping Marquis Yan Jiwu, who were relied on by him as his right-hand man.

Haoxing Akihito never expected that he had been planning for a long time, and he was determined to win a battle for the throne, but he would lose so badly in such a short period of time!

Thinking that after the defeat, he and the entire Yan clan would never recover, the so-called "Virtuous King" finally sat on the ground again in despair after laughing a few times......

After Song Qingfeng, the commander of the forbidden army, once again conveyed the so-called "holy message" of "only punishing the evil, never even the evil", the 20,000 besieging Western Route Army also obediently gave up resistance.

At this point, almost without bloodshed, the 100,000 Western Route Army had all surrendered.

Song Qingfeng ordered King Ji to be imprisoned in solitary confinement, and the generals of the Western Route Army and the Eastern Navy were also imprisoned separately.

After dealing with these things, he did not rush to the imperial tomb, but led 20,000 forbidden troops and directly attacked Jingyang City.

This time, he, the commander of the forbidden army, did not say anything like "never be connected".

As a result, the 20,000 forbidden army iron cavalry ruthlessly slaughtered the 3,000 Yan soldiers in the city.

Subsequently, the mansions of all the Yan clansmen who participated in this rebellion were broken into by the wolf-like forbidden army.

The adult males of the clan were all taken away and the door of the house was sealed. The dependents and subordinates in the house were all confined in the house and were not allowed to go out without permission.

At the same time, Song Xingye, the Marquis of Jingyuan in the palace, also took action.

He took out the secret decree left by the emperor on the spot and announced the crime of rebellion against the Yan family.

Then, he immediately ordered his guards to throw Empress Yan and her henchmen directly into the prison, without any regard for her dignity as the so-called mother of a country.

In this way, the rebellion in the capital was completely put down.

After the Song father and son took control of the entire Jingyang City, they imposed martial law in the city and investigated suspicious elements door to door.

At the same time, the gates of the capital were also strictly guarded by forbidden troops, and idle people were not allowed to enter and leave for the time being.

The results were immediate.

Some remnants of the Yan clan who were lucky enough to slip through the net in the forbidden army's purging saw that there was no hope of escape, so they came out of hiding place one after another and surrendered to the forbidden army.

In addition, there were some unexpected gains. Among the suspicious elements who were arrested, several northerner spies were discovered.

When the news was announced to the whole city, the people of the capital, who had been quite critical of this draconian measure, all stopped complaining and began to take the initiative to cooperate with the investigation of the forbidden army.

Seeing that order in the capital was gradually restored and people's hearts were slowly calmed down, the Song father and son only ordered the guards and the forbidden army to further strengthen their inspections, but did not mention the matter of going to the imperial tomb to welcome the holy car back to Luan.

However, this seemingly strange situation did not arouse too much suspicion among people, especially the courtiers.

Because as we all know, at this moment, the emperor is accompanied by the five thousand guards led by Zhu Mo, the commander of the guards, and there is really no need to send more people to the imperial tomb.

Moreover, at the time of this rebellion, although the Holy Driver was somewhat disturbed at the Imperial Tomb, it was unscathed. On the contrary, there are still some remnants of the Yan clan in the capital that have not been cleaned up, and they are still not absolutely safe.

Therefore, it is a relatively safe way for the emperor to stay in the imperial tomb for the time being, and then return to the palace after the capital is completely stable.

In addition, for the sake of royal prestige and face, the emperor should not be in a hurry to return to the capital.

It's just because this emperor has always claimed to be the holy lord Mingjun, and he doesn't want the world to see the embarrassment that his country was almost usurped by his son.

Although the rebellion has already occurred, as long as the emperor can handle it calmly, it means that the situation is not as serious as people suspected, and everything is still under the control of his majesty the emperor.

Therefore, the emperor is likely to insist on staying until the expiration of the three-day filial piety period before returning to the palace.

It is based on the above ideas that those courtiers in Beijing have made their own guesses about the current situation in Beijing-

Judging from the performance of the Song father and son in this counterinsurgency, they are absolutely loyal to the emperor. And the reason why the emperor handed over the military power to their father and son should also be out of absolute trust in them.

In addition, after the Song father and son quickly quelled the rebellion by thunderous means this time, they so decisively disposed of the queen and the henchmen of the Yan family, and imposed martial law in the capital.

The reason why they would take such a slightly harsh measure in the eyes of outsiders must have been under the emperor's secret decree a long time ago.

So the reason why they didn't go to the imperial tomb immediately to pick up the driver should also be out of holy will, and the emperor must continue to guard filial piety in the imperial tomb.

Since all the courtiers had this roughly the same opinion, they also let go of their hearts and no longer worried about the safety of their Emperor Majesty.

Seeing that it was getting late, the people who had been frightened for nearly two days relaxed and began to gather their own dinner.

For a while, the smoke of cooking in the capital was everywhere, and a calm and peaceful scene was restored......
