While he was dazed, Hua Xinghe had already brought someone over.

There were more than a dozen military officers from the Duwu Division, wearing black robes and black masks on their faces. Only their eyes were exposed and their faces could not be seen clearly.

This is also the unique characteristic of Duwusi, who never shows his true colors to others.

Zhang Wu is the commander of the Imperial Guards. He has met Hua Xinghe once. As the head of the Duwu Division, he is very mysterious and rarely seen.

She has a fair face and a slender waist.

At first glance, I thought it was a woman, but if I took a closer look at his throat, I saw a raised Adam's apple.

This is...

Zhang Wu shook off his messy thoughts and faced him.

"I wonder why Mr. Hua came here?"

Hua Xinghe rarely calmed down, and said in a high-pitched voice: "By His Majesty's order, I am asking the leader of this department to bring a few people to help guard the gate of the inner city. These people are all good people from my military department, so I think they can be helpful."

"oh?"

Zhang Wu looked at the dozen people behind Hua Xinghe with surprise on his face.

The Duwusi is a bureau that specializes in dealing with warriors. Each of them is very skilled in martial arts. Although there are not many people here, they can be of great use at critical moments.

"Thank you, Mr. Hua."

Zhang Wu expressed his gratitude.

"Um."

Hua Xinghe immediately ordered: "You obey Commander Zhang's order and remember your mission."

"yes!"

More than a dozen men in black responded in unison.

Hua Xinghe then turned around and left. Before leaving, he nodded to a person with a sneer on his enchanting face.

Remember your mission.

This mission is not to guard the inner city gate, but to help open the city gate at a critical moment...

"Commander Zhang, we are at the city gate."

A man in black who was obviously the leader spoke.

"woman?"

Listening to this cold voice, Zhang Wu was slightly stunned, and then he hurriedly said: "Then I'll help you all."

"Um."

The woman responded. If Guan Ning was here, she would be able to recognize it. This voice is very familiar. She is the former chief of the Supervisory Department and is now a wanted criminal by the court, Mo Xuan!

at the same time.

Outer city, city defense headquarters.

Xue Huairen looked at the generals in front of him. These people were all his cronies, and some of Yang Su's people were the main generals of the city defenders.

"Everyone is ready and waiting for my order to open the city gate at any time."

"yes!"

"Go get ready."

"yes."

The generals responded and left. Xue Huairen stood up and looked in the direction of the palace.

"It's already started at the palace. When the chaos comes, they will open the city gate and welcome Guan Ning's army into the city..."

He murmured softly and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Today is the day and the new year is here. Is this a special omen?

Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new!

The old dynasty has collapsed and a new dynasty is coming.

Is this considered as complying with destiny?

Xue Huairen stared in the direction of the palace with a dull gaze.

Today should not be a day, it should be more appropriately called a coup day.

His Majesty has no choice but to move Gao Lian and others, but will they obey and accept it?

Of course not.

What's more, there is a young prince, Xiao Zheng, who thinks he is very smart, but is actually extremely selfish.

Before Guan Ning can launch a coup, there will be one inside the court.

Your Majesty, you are the reason why you are here now...

When the sun rises in the east, the first ray of rays of light shines on the plaque of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, showing a bright golden light.

In previous years, great celebrations would be held in both the DPRK and the Central Government.

Tsing Yi welcomes spring.

Your Majesty will hold a grand ceremony to worship the heaven. When the Spring Festival comes, everyone from the princes and nobles to the traffickers and servants will put on green clothes to welcome its arrival.

This is the most important festival of the year.

Now there is no festive atmosphere at all.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, many officials looked solemn.

Your Majesty holds a court meeting today, obviously not because of the rituals of the year, nor will he entertain the ministers after the court meeting, but because of important matters.

Emperor Long Jing was wearing a dragon robe, his hair was combed meticulously, and he was sitting upright on the dragon chair, seeming to show his former aura.

Obviously knowing that today is special, he has changed his previous downturn and lifted his spirits a bit.

Not far to the lower left is the eldest prince Xiao Teng, who has just been given the power of regent, and on the right is the prince Xiao Zheng.

This is Emperor Longjing's cunning maneuver. He was supposed to be the prince regent, but he made the prince regent instead.

Where does this leave Xiao Zheng’s position?

Since you have made me regent, why don't you depose the crown prince and make me the crown prince.

This puts Xiao Teng in an awkward position.

The source of the trouble lies here, but Emperor Longjing is completely unaware of it.

Doesn't he know?

Of course not!

He even knows better than anyone else that his purpose in doing this is to consolidate his throne.

No one can covet his throne.

The prince is too young to inherit the throne. Although the eldest prince Xiao Teng is regent and manages the government, he is not a prince and is not orthodox.

Then no one can say anything.

He can be his emperor with peace of mind.

The courtiers below are arranged neatly, and the first person on the lower left is Gao Lian.

He is the chief assistant, so naturally he is the first.

Then came Yang Su, who had just taken over as Minister of War, and other cabinet officials.

Xue Huairen is not here, he is still in charge of defending the city in the outer city.

The censor of Youdu held the yellow book in his hand and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, there were 205 people expected, but in fact there were 131."

There are too many absences, seventy-four people.

But all the ministers of civil and military affairs who could indeed come came.

Some people are defending the city and cannot leave, and some are dead. They died on the battlefield...

Emperor Long Jing nodded lightly.

"Long live my emperor."

The ministers bowed their heads and the sound wave swept across.

They all knelt down like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

This is the emperor!

It can make all living beings surrender, and decide the life and death of others with just one word!

It is the pleasure brought by this kind of power that makes people addicted and can never give up!

I worked hard to get this, why should I let others do it?
