Sheng Hong stood proudly in the hall, holding the memorial in his hand and reciting it impassionedly.

In his words, the emperor Duan Zhengxing, who is currently sitting high in the hall, is almost the same as Jie and Zhou. If Dali had not had a virtuous prime minister like Gao Yingde, the people in the world would be in such dire straits now!

Duan Zhengxing was shocked and angry.

Huoran stood up and looked at the civil servants and generals on both sides. No one came forward to criticize Sheng Hong. Some people had sneers on their faces, some showed pity on their faces, and most of them lowered their heads, not daring to talk to those on the stage.

Duan Zhengxing looked at each other.

Duan Zhengxing may be a coward, but he is indeed kind to his ministers.

"Come here, capture this rebellious official and traitor!" Duan Zhengxing shouted harshly.

Gao Yingde has not gone to court today, so his roots are here.

Sheng Hong put away the memorial, put his hands behind his back, and sneered at Duan Zhengxing, who was standing on the high platform with his hair and beard standing tall.

Outside the main hall, soldiers with helmets and armors stood with their swords in hand. Two captains even stood at the door of the main hall with swords on their waists. They looked at each other, but they ignored Duan Zhengxing's sharp scolding and orders.

Looking at the soldiers at the door, and then at Sheng Hong in front of him, Duan Zhengxing was frightened, turned around and ran towards the inner hall.

By accident, he tripped on the royal robe and fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing Duan Zhengxing's embarrassment, Sheng Hong burst out laughing. Seeing the two eunuchs helping up the panicked Duan Zhengxing and staggering inwards, he actually moved forward and followed closely.

The soldiers outside the main hall, led by the two captains, also walked straight in, following Sheng Hong directly into the inner palace.

In the Guangming Palace, all the civil and military officials faced each other in silence.

No one dared to leave.

These days, the blood shed in Shanchan Mansion has frightened everyone.

Even Dong Xian, the great master of Dong Dynasty, was exterminated by his clan. Only Dong Xian was spared among hundreds of people. What did they count?

In the inner hall, Duan Zhengxing was forced into the study.

Sheng Hong rolled out the yellow silk, dipped the pen in ink, and forced it into Duan Zhengxing's hand.

"Your Majesty, the act of abdication can still save a life. You can still eat fast and chant Buddha in Tianlong Temple. Why are you still hesitant? Do you really want to force me to do that unbearable thing?" Sheng Hong said sternly. "The prime minister is benevolent and virtuous.

, I am willing to spare His Majesty’s life, but Sheng doesn’t have the patience. If Your Majesty doesn’t write it, Sheng will write it for Your Majesty.”

Duan Zhengxing burst into tears.

"I wrote this edict of abdication, and everyone in the palace will be safe?"

"Of course!" Sheng Hong said: "Your Majesty went to Tianlong Temple to eat fast and chant Buddha. The other palace people should be accommodated in other palaces. The Prime Minister has always kept his word, how can he break his promise and get rich? It is not beautiful to break the world's trust like this!"

"Okay, I'll write, I'll write!" Duan Zhengxing picked up his pen, and while crying loudly, he wrote the abdication edict, took out the imperial seal, and stamped it with a bright red seal.

"Take good care of Your Majesty."

Sheng Hong grabbed the edict and seal, laughed and walked out.

Arriving in front of the Guangming Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials were still gathered here, and no one left.

Sheng Hong held the edict in one hand and the jade seal in the other, and said sternly: "The faint king knows that his virtue is not good enough and his virtue is not worthy of his place. He has issued an edict for the Zen position. Gentlemen, please come with me to the Prime Minister's Mansion and respectfully invite the Prime Minister to enthrone!"

After finishing speaking, he held the edict high and walked forward in stride.

Hundreds of officials followed closely behind him.

After Gao Yingde heard about this, he immediately returned to the palace and kept the door closed. No matter how hard the officials outside begged, they refused to open the door. He claimed that the Gao family had received many favors from the country and could never do such a rebellious act.

In Ramoche Temple, Wu Ke sneered: "I really want to be a bitch and build a memorial arch. Master, Gao Yingde's operation really opened my eyes! These days, there are actually countless people following me."

These shameless officials gathered outside the Gao Mansion and respectfully invited Gao Yingde to take over! It is estimated that after three invitations and four defeats, he will go out in shame."

"The next step is probably for Duan Zhengxing to go and persuade Gao Yingde in person. At this point, it's almost done." Huiyuan said: "It's not enough to go too far. Just watch. Duan Zhengxing will leave tomorrow at most."

"For the emperor to take this seriously is truly an eternal wonder!" Wu Ke shook his head and sighed.

"Dong Xian has arrived at Weichu Mansion." Huiyuan said: "However, Gao Yingde's power is too great. Unless this person dies, Dong Xian will not be able to make waves. Places like Nongdong Mansion, Lanxi County, and Tengchong Mansion cannot

They will take action easily. And Jianchang, Huichuan, Shicheng and other places are all loyal to the Gao family, and the leaders of the army are mostly Gao family's confidants."

"So, the key is still the issue of Gao Yingde's life and death!" Wu Kedao said: "Master, don't worry, even if Gao Yingde can't be shot dead from the upper floor of Baohe, isn't your second plan already ready?"

"Have the explosives been delivered to the man?"

"It's been delivered, and it will be buried under that chair in the next two days." Wu Kedao said: "But in this way, the traces of our operation will be obvious. Because of such powerful explosives, we are the only ones in the world now.

Yes, this is not a secret. It is difficult to put the blame on Dong Xian, and there will be some obstacles in future operations, but if it really comes to this step, there is no way. "

"I'm leaving Shanchan Mansion soon, and I'll leave all the rest to you!" Huiyuan said.

"Don't worry, Master!" Wu Ke bowed.

Huiyuan is going to travel around Dali. To put it bluntly, he wants to use his identity to instigate greater chaos. But Wu Ke, who stays behind, will do much more bloody things.

The Statistics Department knew that most of the assassins walking in the darkness in Qiu Yuan were gathered in Dali, and they were not traveling at public expense.

Creating more confusion, creating more fear, and creating more misunderstandings is the only mission of these people here.

Only chaos can allow the Song Dynasty army to easily capture this place that Xiao Cheng has coveted for several years.

Dali has been a country for a long time, and it existed at the beginning of the Song Dynasty. If you want to completely destroy such a country with a long history and be able to perfectly digest it later, the first thing to do is to destroy it.

Phoenix nirvana, rebirth from the ashes, is born only in the storm of destruction.

On the day Huiyuan left Shanchan Mansion, Emperor Duan Zhengxing of Dali, dressed in white and barefoot, walked all the way from the palace to the outside of Gao Mansion to invite Gao Yingde to ascend the throne as emperor.

The gate of Gaofu, which had been closed for several days, was finally opened. Gao Yingde came out of the house, hugged Duan Zhengxing and cried loudly. Then he sent someone to send Duan Zhengxing off to Tianlong Temple to become a monk, while he was surrounded by hundreds of civil and military officials and countless

Surrounded by the people, they stepped into the palace.

The Gao family came to court.

Three days later, Dong Xian of the Weichu Prefecture raised an army and called on people with lofty ideals in the world to fight against the rebel and traitor Gao Yingde. Dong Xian claimed that he had obtained the support of the Song Dynasty and that the Song Dynasty would send troops to help Dali bring order to the chaos.

As if to confirm Dong Xian's words, Xiao Cheng, the pacifier of Guizhou Road in the Song Dynasty, announced on the same day that he would send troops to Dali to fight against the rebels.

The Heavenly Wolf Army and the Sky Eagle Army attacked from Bijie.

The Tianwu Army and the Tiannan Army came from Guanling.

At the same time, the pacification envoy Xiao Cheng led his troops to Juzhou to provide reinforcements to the four armies.

So far, out of the seven armies on the Guizhou road, five armies have been dispatched.

At the same time, Cen Zhong, the pacification envoy of the Guangnan West Road of the Song Dynasty, had ordered his general Wei Wu to lead the Qingping Army with a total of more than 3,000 people to approach Shicheng County. At the same time, another general, Liu Yiguo, led the Qingyuan Army with 3,000 people to move up the Nanpan River.

, approaching Xiushan County.

The main force of the Gao family was all dragged across the border by the Song army for a while. Whether it was Liupanshui, Jianchang, Huichuan and other places, the Gao family's troops were in a hurry and did not have any extra strength to dare to turn around and annihilate them.

Dong Xian of Wei Chu Mansion.

Seeing this situation, Tengchong Prefecture, Nongdong Prefecture, and Lanxi County couldn't help but get excited. The top officials of the three places gathered troops and horses and collected food and grass. As for whether to help Dong Xian or Gao Yingde

, but it’s hard to say.

Gao Yingde did not take people like Tengchong Prefecture, Nongdong Prefecture, and Lanxi County seriously. In his opinion, he only eliminated Dong Xian. These people promised to run to him immediately and lick his feet.

As for the Song Army on the Guizhou Road above the border, is it a problem?

Not a problem.

Xiao Cheng's relationship with the Song Dynasty court was a deadlock. As long as his army withstood his first wave of offensives and he successfully suppressed the rebellion internally, he could then concentrate his efforts to launch a counterattack.

As long as it reaches this point, the Song Dynasty court will never let go of this opportunity to eliminate Xiao Cheng.

In the past few years, the imperial court has deployed so many means around Guizhou Road, and it's time to put them to use.

The enthronement ceremony was held on the same day as the swearing-in ceremony.

As soon as Gao Yingde ascended the throne, he prepared to go on a personal expedition. He wanted to use Dong Xian's head to tell Dali that all those who opposed Gao Yingde would have only one fate, and that was death.

Dressed in full attire, sitting high on the steps, looking down at the bowing civil and military officials below, a sense of pride arose spontaneously.

It turns out that this is what it feels like to be an emperor.

In the past, although he was a highly respected minister, he never had the opportunity to stand in this position and look down on all living beings.

A feeling that everything is under control spreads throughout the body.

Walking down slowly, several guards behind him were holding armors and swords following closely behind.

Outside the main hall, three thousand tiger warriors have gathered and are waiting for him, the newly minted emperor, to inspect them.

Then, he, Gao Yingde, will take these 3,000 elites to join the other 5,000 troops waiting for him outside the city, and together they will attack the Chu Mansion, and take the head of Dong Xian, the old killer, as an edict.

The world.

Gao Yingde walked out slowly, followed closely by all the civil and military officials behind him.

Two hundred steps outside the Baohe Building.

A big man in black was sitting by the window, staring at the Guangming Palace in the distance.

Next to him, on the two assembled crossbow vehicles, the crossbow arrows were shining with a faint blue light. One look at the blue arrows, and one knew that they were tempered with giant poison.

Using such a heavy crossbow to kill a person 200 steps away is not very reliable.
