Pang Shigu was slightly startled.

The Xiaoling Guard is the army that guards the imperial mausoleum. This army has always existed and is stationed at the imperial mausoleum. Almost no one pays attention to it. Among the troops in Beijing, the Xiaoling Guard is also the least conspicuous.

Pang Shigu suddenly realized.

It turns out that the Xiaoling Guard is actually the Dragon Guard, hiding under the eyes of others. No wonder it is not known to others.

Since His Highness has been in the imperial mausoleum for so long, he is naturally the most familiar with Xiaoling Guards...

"The Xiaoling Guard is not among the emperor's personal guards, but it is the oldest army in the Liang Kingdom, and it is also the most elite and powerful army!"

Zhu Zhen said in a low voice: "The Xiaoling Guards are all elite soldiers selected after long-term training. They can ride horses and whip whips to recruit quickly. They can ride horses across a trench and over a wall. They can also shoot bows and arrows on horses. All three arrows are in the right direction."

To be qualified.”

"If you dismount, you will master the secret skills of killing and become the king of soldiers!"

Pang Shigu was shocked.

And Zhu Zhen continued: "These elite soldiers undergo an assessment every five years, and those who are at the bottom are eliminated. Those who are not qualified can have their sons take over. Those who have no men to take over will be sent back to their hometowns to retire!"

"This is how this mysterious army was created!"

After hearing this, Pang Shigu already roughly knew what the Third Highness was planning.

"There are 5,600 people in Xiaoling Weiming. There are actually nearly 10,000 people. Excluding others, there are currently 9,000 people that can be used. These troops are enough for me to control the palace and the city of Bianjing!"

Zhu Zhen expressed his plan.

"Now the news of the late emperor's death is being sealed. If I want to ascend the throne before Zhu Zhen returns to Beijing, then I will be the Emperor of Liang!"

Strike first to gain the upper hand!

Pang Shigu was surprised in his heart that His Highness was so determined and acted so decisively!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have ascended the throne in Ba City, so..."

As soon as Pang Shigu raised his doubts, he was interrupted by Zhu Zhen.

"He does not have an imperial edict on his accession. Eunuch You has already said that his father did not leave him an edict on his accession, and he certainly would not dare to forge it. But if I have the edict left by the late emperor, I can ascend the throne in Beijing."

Zhu Zhen said: "Of course this is not important, it is just a formality."

I have already decided to fight for the throne, why do I still care about this?

Emperor Yuanwu was a rebel, so who could say anything?

He took Guan Ning as an example.

"I inherited the throne, and I am the legitimate emperor. I can directly issue orders to Zhu Zhen!"

He laughed as he thought about it.

Zhu Zhen hurriedly returned to Beijing to ascend the throne, only to find that he had become emperor. How should he react?

At this time, Pang Shigu interrupted his thoughts.

"With the Dragon Guard, you can naturally control the capital, but the military power is in the hands of His Highness the Crown Prince. Without an army, how can you secure the throne?"

This is fundamental.

His Majesty, His Majesty, is in charge of the army and there is nothing he can do about it.

"Before the death of the second emperor brother, many officials were demoted back to their hometowns. These people were actually protected. After I ascend the throne, I can let them come back. They are all capable officials. They can pacify Liang Guoan and support the government. Civil officials

The system can be controlled by me, as for the generals of the army..."

Zhu Zhen paused.

"I can only try to see if I can win someone over..."

"Who are you talking about?"

Pang Shigu did not expect that His Highness would have so many back-ups.

The Second Prince was the most knowledgeable among the princes, and all local officials were appointed and promoted by him. It was a pity that he died young. After his death, he left all these to His Highness the Third Highness...

"Fan Cang!"

Zhu Zhen uttered a name in a deep voice.

"How could he be roped in?"

Pang Shigu shook his head one after another.

Fan Cang is the general of the Zhenbian Army and an absolute confidant of His Highness the Crown Prince. His status with the Crown Prince is just like his own status with the late Emperor.

If Fan Cang can be brought over, His Highness the Prince's troops will naturally turn against him, and His Highness the Prince will lose support, but this is simply impossible!

Fan Cang has great trust from His Highness the Crown Prince, and the army is directly under his control. How could he defect?

"I have been in contact with General Fan. He is not a foolish, loyal and pedantic person. If it is really for the country, I believe he can distinguish right from wrong. If it really doesn't work, he can only fight with Zhu Zhen head-on."

Zhu Zhen said in a low voice: "During civil strife, it is the country that is harmed. It would be best if the impact can be minimized."

"I can write a letter. Mr. Pangda, can you find someone to secretly send it to General Fan?"

Zhu Zhen said: "There is no one I can truly trust in the army."

"Can."

Pang Shigu responded directly.

"I can make arrangements accordingly."

"good!"

Zhu Zhen said: "Zhu Zhen should be on his way back to Beijing at this moment, so we can start without further delay."

"Zhu Zhen will definitely take my life first when he returns to the capital. He probably won't think that I, who was once slandered by him, shouldered the infamy for his crimes, stepped under his feet and demoted to the imperial mausoleum, will become his great

Enemy, take away his throne!"

After holding back for many years, it suddenly broke out!

The next day, a huge earthquake occurred in Bianjing, the capital of Liang Dynasty. Prime Minister Pang Shigu announced that the late emperor had passed away. Later, three of his highnesses, Zhu Zhen, walked out of the imperial mausoleum, took out the late emperor's edict and said that the late emperor's legacy was passed to him.

No matter what happened, it was considered sudden. How could the late emperor's personal expedition pass away?

No news has been sent back yet, how can people believe it?

What's more, the Crown Prince and Crown Prince are still here, how can it be the turn of His Highness who guards the imperial mausoleum to ascend the throne?

Prince Zhu Zhen is not without power in the court. He had made arrangements long ago, and these people naturally refused to recognize him.

However, the third prince, Zhu Zhen, led the Xiaoling Guards into the palace and killed all the disobedient officials. The prince's influence in Beijing was completely removed. There were many casualties and the square in the palace was dyed with blood.

This incident is also known as Daliang Bloody Day.

As a relative of the prince, the Lu family was naturally at the top of the list. Only when they went to their home to check, they discovered that Lu Zhengyuan had already left. No one in the direct lineage of the Lu family was in Beijing. Where they had gone, no one knew...

Could it be that Lu Zhengyuan had foreseen his escape in advance?

Even Zhu Zhen was puzzled, but at this time someone was anxious, and soon Lu Zhengyuan took over the market...

No, it was a Ponzi scheme that was exposed and people fled with the money.

Comparatively speaking, the changes in Liang State are more important.

Things are going to change!

In just a few days, the third prince Zhu Zhen launched a coup and took control of the situation with thunderous means.

The third prince of the Liang Kingdom, King Qi Zhu Zhen, ascended the throne in Bianjing and named it Tianshun, which quickly spread throughout the country.

A country actually has two emperors, and the deceased emperor Zhu Wen is still unknown where?

It's simply off the mark.

At the same time, a proclamation was also issued, listing the crimes of Prince Zhu Zhen, the truth about the previous loss of Beilin Province, his intention to rebel, and the defeat of his leading army, etc.

Zhu Zhen was very decisive and thorough. He knew that when he decided to stand up, it was destined that only one of him and Zhu Zhen would survive!
