It's just that at the moment, it is heavily guarded, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry. I'm afraid that even if it's a fly, it won't easily blend into the palace of the capital.

Including His Majesty today, it can be said that no one expected that his imperial brother's methods would be so clever. In a silent situation, he almost took over the city's defenses without bloodshed. A few years ago, if Gonggong An hadn't rushed back in time, I am afraid that the situation would continue, or it would not be long before the entire country would change hands, and this court would have to be replaced by an emperor.

Fortunately, after several years of hard work, at least most of the Chu king's manpower in the capital has been cleared, and the only remaining eyeliner is well hidden, even if the purple guards directly under the imperial court are dispatched, they have not been able to find out all of them. Similarly, among the purple guards in the capital, there may also be hidden works of the King of Chu.

In the palace, when the eyes of the Heavenly Son Zi Aoxuan were a little dark, he sat quietly in front of the throne of the dragon chair in the imperial study.

He hadn't closed his eyes for three days and three nights. In order to protect the country left by his ancestors, he, the emperor, has too much, too much to do.

In fact, today, when the country is peaceful and the people are safe, the country is rich and the people are strong, and Zi Nansheng, the king of Chu, can't find any excuse to rebel at all. Could it be that this second emperor brother is really just for his own selfish desires, for the regret that he did not achieve the supreme emperor in the first place?

"See Your Majesty!"

Zi Donglai came from outside the room in a hurry, and after saluting respectfully, he looked for a seat with a big grin. The guards on both sides saw that it was him, and they did not stop him much.

Regarding Zi Donglai's behavior, Zi Aoxuan was not disgusted. Although he is not the youngest of his generation, he has been mixed in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and it is inevitable that he will be contaminated with those habits on the rivers and lakes.

"The imperial brother doesn't need to be polite, is there another secret report when he comes this time?" Zi Aoxuan asked with a worried face.

"However, the secret envoy of the hidden dragon has sent news that the second emperor brother has recruited a lot of people from the rivers and lakes and big gangs, and the emerging Qingtian Pavilion is among them. Zi Donglai frowned, this situation is very unfavorable to the imperial court.

"Since ancient times, the imperial court has ignored the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and the rivers and lakes have not provoked the government of the court, and I can't imagine that the second prince will ...... Alas, the old slave is talkative, talkative. ”

Father-in-law An on the side leaned sideways and handed a pot of freshly brewed tea to Zi Donglai.

"There are some big forces in the rivers and lakes right now, the Yuan Gang, the Yuan Alliance, the Qingtian Pavilion, the Yuan Gang Leader and the Tiger Roar General Qiu Jiu have a close relationship, and it is very likely that they will fall to the Second Emperor Brother at any time, Qingtian Pavilion has now surrendered to the Second Emperor Brother, so ......"

"What does the imperial brother mean, could it be that we are going to win over the Yuan Alliance?" Zi Aoxuan asked as a result.

"However, although the imperial court is still strong and strong, it may not be afraid of the second emperor brother in a battle with a clear sword and a gun. However, if the two major forces surrender to the two emperor brothers one after another, then the situation will be extremely unfavorable to us. ”

If it is said that which vassal king has how many soldiers and horses, no one knows better than Zi Aoxuan, the emperor. However, the power on the rivers and lakes, he is high and the emperor is far away, so he is definitely not as good as Zidong, who has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time.

"In addition to these three, are there other forces in the rivers and lakes that are worthy of our reliance?

"Buddhism?" Zi Donglai was also stunned, and then he reacted, he just focused on the ordinary forces in the rivers and lakes, but he left behind those big sects and big forces hidden in the rivers and lakes.

"Your Majesty, the strength of the Buddha sect is indeed strong, but they only know how to eat fasting and recite the Buddha, and according to the records of the classics of the past dynasties, they never interfere in the affairs of the court. As for other hidden forces, there is no need to think about the Blood Domain, Sword Island, Poison Heart Valley, etc., they don't care about our affairs, in the opinion of the foolish brother, the only hidden world force that can help His Majesty can be said to be far away in the sky, close at hand. ”

"Right in front of you?" Zi Aoxuan was puzzled. In the study right now, in addition to him and Zi Donglai, there are only two masters cultivated by the imperial court who guard the door, plus a father-in-law An who pours tea and water on weekdays, how can there be any hidden power?

Seeing Zi Aoxuan's eyes glancing around, Gonggong An smiled, poured tea for Zi Aoxuan, smiled, and said, "Your Majesty, don't forget, the origin of the old slave, and the eldest father-in-law." ”

"Smack!"

Zi Aoxuan patted his head with his hand as if he was laughing at himself, obviously feeling that he was only concerned about finding foreign help, and he had forgotten the reliance beside him.

Although Grandpa An is also a great master, it is absolutely impossible for him to have the ability to turn the overall situation around. But the forces behind Gonggong An are huge, and they can even be compared with the Blood Domain, Poison Heart Valley, etc.

In the Yuan Domain, there is an extremely unique force, and it can even be said that it is extremely rare in the entire world. The owners of this force are basically composed of the successive eunuchs of the imperial court, and the name is the Xuanyin Palace. The hall master of the Xuanyin Palace, who is said to be called the "Grand Duke", was an old eunuch from several generations ago. How high his martial arts are, no one can know.

The reason why the Xuanyin Hall is special is that in addition to the particularity of its members, it is also that it almost straddles between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes. Don't worry about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and don't ask about the affairs of the court, but once it comes to the internal struggle of the court, the Xuanyin Palace will send people to protect the safety of the emperor of the current dynasty.

Otherwise, a few years ago, the King of Chu had almost used more than ten years of careful deployment, and he could have easily taken the capital and assassinated Zi Aoxuan, how could he still be safe and sound?

"Why did I forget that the Xuanyin Hall behind Gonggong An can also be used as a support, although it is not enough to win, but at least it can make us worry a little less!"

No matter how strong the King of Chu's soldiers and horses were, no matter how well prepared they were, Zi Aoxuan at least didn't have to worry about his inexplicable head falling to the ground. With the secret protection of the people of the Xuanyin Palace, at least you can sleep without worry.

"In that case, Gonggong An, you have arranged for someone to meet the people of the Restoration Alliance, remember not to be arrogant, and be sure to pull this Restoration Alliance into our camp. In addition, I also bother you to go back to the Xuanyin Palace to explore the tone of the Grand Duke, if he is willing to help, we will naturally be like a tiger with wings, invincible. ”

"The old slave obeyed. ”

Father-in-law An naturally accepted the order, waved his sleeve robe and retreated.

At this point, Zi Donglai did not stay for a long time, and after saluting Zi Aoxuan, he also withdrew.

"Second Emperor Brother, Second Emperor Brother, you are scheming, just to seize the position of the Ninety-Five Supreme. In fact, this position is not a kind of torment and torture? Alas......"

A long sigh echoed through the imperial study.
