    Chapter 135 Forced Palace (Part 1)

    Early morning on August 15th.

    All civil and military officials were notified early in the morning - it was time to go to court today!So they all put on official uniforms one after another, or took sedan chairs or on foot, and arrived at the gate of the palace. The minister who arrived first found that the guards at the main gate did not let them in, so they had to wait at the gate. After a long time, all the civil and military officialsThey all gathered at the gate.

    After King Jing Mu Chengan received this news, he said with a gloomy face: "It must be Pei Rongbai who made a hindrance and notified the civil and military officials to come... Forget it, let them go in, and guard them after they arrive at the main hall.They come out, and when our people arrive, forgive this group of people and there will be no disturbances."

    "yes!"

    He slowly got up from the chair, paced a few steps in the hall, his brows were furrowed, and his face was a bit sad.

    Yin Qianzhan, who was standing by the side, asked respectfully: "My lord, why do you look unhappy? Today is the day for us to make a big deal, and the throne is already in your pocket, and Prince and Pei Rongbai have nothing to say."Resistance, what else do you have to worry about?"

    "My eyelids keep twitching today, and I always feel a little uneasy." Mu Chengan said, he stopped slowly, stretched out his finger and pressed his brow.

    "You are worrying too much." Yin Qianzhan smiled and comforted, "Now that the entire capital is under the control of the prince, what troubles can they make? When you are successful and sit on the throne, those peopleThe generals will also look forward to the wind."

    "I hope so." Mu Chengan flinched a bit, but he thought that he had been preparing for so many years, and everything was done today. If he hesitated and hesitated, he would miss the opportunity, so he finally stopped and facedHe said firmly, "Pass on the king's order to immediately surround the palace and Mu Qianyin's bedroom!"

    "yes!"

    All the ministers were driven to the main hall of the early dynasty, but neither the emperor nor King Jing came out to explain, only King Jing's people guarded the door, and they were not allowed to go out.

    The ministers flocked to Pei Rongbai who was dressed in scarlet clothes, not knowing what was going on now.

    Pei Rongbai walked up to the front with a serious face, first he calmed down everyone, and then said: "Masters! I got the news that today, King Jing is going to force the palace to rebel!"

    "what?"

    "Ah?! There are other things!"

    "He really wants to rebel!"

    "How can I do that?"

    All the ministers immediately started discussing, some were full of anger, some were terrified, some were solemn, some were hesitant, all of them looked like sentient beings.

    "Please be quiet, everyone! Listen to me!" Pei Rongbai yelled loudly, and when everyone quieted down, he said, "Actually, I was the one who notified everyone to come here. I want everyone to be a witness to see how King Jing is.Those who are rebellious and rebellious! Let's also see who are His Majesty's loyal ministers and who are fools!"

    As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

    Pei Rongbai wanted to make it difficult for those princes with military power to turn to King Jing in full view. He knew that people's hearts were unpredictable, even though they all promised him to stand on the emperor's side, it was inevitable that some people would have other ideas in private.But now under the eyes of everyone, if they want to be a traitor, they will be looked down upon by others, so they need to weigh whether their behavior is worth it.

    "My lords, if King Jing really rebelled, will you stand by His Majesty's side and defend His Majesty to the death?" Pei Rongbai asked deliberately with a solemn face.

    "Naturally, the ministers must swear allegiance to His Majesty to the death!" the officials said loudly in unison.

    Under their leadership, the rest of the ministers also opened their mouths, shouting: "The ministers must swear allegiance to His Majesty to the death!"

    "Very good, we'll see how the ministers behave later." Pei Rongbai nodded his head and looked around the crowd, with a look of relief on his face.

    "His Royal Highness King Jing is here—"

    A long sound broke the order in the hall, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see King Jing Mu Chengan wearing a black python robe, walking slowly up the steps, with a slight smile on his handsome face, with proud eyes and a complacent expression, as if something good happened to haunt him like a spring breeze.

    He walked into the hall step by step, and stopped in front of everyone. He looked at Pei Rongbai who was standing at the top, with gloomy eyes and complacent eyes: "My lords, this king was summoned by His Majesty early in the morning, and after meeting His Majesty,Your Majesty has issued an edict to abdicate the throne to this king! It just so happens that today is the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, which is an auspicious day, so it has been decided to hold a Zen throne ceremony today and pass the throne to this king!"

    As soon as he finished speaking, there was a deathly silence below.

    Pei Rongbai laughed mockingly, and said, "Your Majesty, you said that His Majesty gave you the Zen seat, what's the proof?"

    "Here is the proof, and there is the seal of the state." Mu Chengan took a step sideways, and saw the servant behind him slowly walking forward holding a scroll of bright yellow imperial edict.Then he turned to face the crowd, opened the imperial decree, and said:

    "Your Majesty has a decree, everyone listens to the decree—"

    Everyone looked at each other, wondering if they should kneel down to receive the order, and then they all looked at Pei Rongbai, wondering what countermeasure he had.

    I saw Pei Rongbai still smiling mockingly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is seriously ill now. You say that His Majesty asked someone to draw up this imperial decree, but you can draw it up yourself, and no one knows...As usual, every time the Emperor comesBefore your death, or if you want to issue an edict to the prince, you must have five confidential ministers serving in front of the emperor, may I ask if there are any ministers to testify for you, the prince?"

    King Jing was not guilty when he heard the words, he smiled unhurriedly and said: "This matter is too urgent, and His Majesty summoned it again, and there is no minister to testify."

    "Then this imperial decree cannot be counted!" Pei Rongbai's complexion changed, and he was suddenly cold and sharp, "Otherwise it will be treason!"

    "Pei Rongbai! How courageous you are! How dare you disobey His Majesty's imperial decree!" Mu Chengan's face was like the sky before a thunderstorm, with dark clouds billowing and surging, "Don't toast or eat fine wine!"

    "What kind of toast and fine wine, if the prince has one, feel free to bring it up!" Pei Rongbai was also fearless.

    "Exactly, my lord, persisting in evil brings about self-destruction, I advise you to rein in the precipice and stop in time!" Qiao Zeyu also said righteously, "Otherwise, I will not yield to you even if I die.Under the coercion of the tyranny!"

    "Hmph, you're all damn prostitutes with stubborn mouths. I'll see how you're still dying! Won't shed tears till you have seen your coffin!" King Jing gritted his teeth and turned to the Feathered Forest Army outside., "Come on, take all these people down!"

    "yes!"

    The fully armed Feathered Forest Army rushed into the hall immediately, and put swords on the necks of every minister. They were all fierce and murderous, and several civil servants trembled unconsciously when they saw it.

    "Come on, my king asks you, is this king's imperial decree true?" A smile appeared on King Jing's face, but the smile was ferocious and fierce, which made people shudder."As long as this king is not satisfied with what he says, he will be executed on the spot!"

    His gaze lingered in the crowd, as if he was looking for a target to strike first. Many ministers lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze, for fear that they would be asked about it. The atmosphere suddenly became tense and dignified.asphyxia.
