The first thousand two hundred and twenty-five chapters of the wrath
King Cheng actually didn't pay much attention to the rules of mortals.
However, it was these rules that distinguished him from the natives of the Ancient Moon Realm, and Da Li governed the country with etiquette, so he conveniently created such a persona for himself.
Looking at the servant who was on the ground begging for mercy, King Cheng started to scold him as usual.
But it was just a few words of reprimand.
Unlike the useless Prince Jing, he has no bad interest in abusing his servants for fun.
But the next moment, his eyes widened and he was speechless.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw what the servant had exclaimed just now.
The colors exploding in the sky were very unfamiliar to the natives of the Ancient Moon Realm, but they were nothing unusual to King Cheng.
That's not something else.
It's just fireworks.
"How can there be fireworks in the Ancient Moon Realm?"
King Cheng frowned.
With his eyes, he could naturally see that the fireworks in the sky where the last bit of color had just disappeared were not of the level that had just been invented.
And soon, he also reacted.
"No, the location where the fireworks were released seems to be the palace of the Prince..."
“Very close!”
Cheng Wang's face instantly became extremely ugly.
Apart from him, there is only one other person left in the capital who can create mature fireworks in the Ancient Moon Realm.
King Yu, who is also the descendant of the Realm Lord.
And he didn't think that King Yu's fireworks and setting them off so close to his mansion were just a sudden inspiration.
"So, what is he going to do..."
"I see."
King Cheng's eyes narrowed.
The one just now was not a firework, it was a flare.
He is sending messages to other people.
Thinking of the distance between the signal bomb and Prince Cheng's Mansion, Prince Cheng immediately ordered, "Go down and gather all the guards in the Mansion." He didn't have time to think about it.
The servants kneeling on the ground suddenly looked at each other.
They were waiting to be scolded, but they did not expect that His Highness King Cheng would suddenly react like this.
But the next moment they didn't dare to hesitate anymore.
"Go quickly!"
"yes!"
Seeing that His Highness's anxiety did not seem to be hypocritical, the servant immediately did not dare to neglect any more. He immediately got up from the ground and rolled over to carry out King Cheng's order.
Although I don’t know what happened, it’s always good to avoid a scolding.
King Cheng was still frowning.
After issuing the order, the uneasiness in his heart not only did not disappear, but intensified.
"No, there must be something I overlooked!"
As the uneasiness in his heart intensified, King Cheng became more and more impatient.
A moment later, before King Cheng could figure out the answer, all the guards were awakened and gathered in the courtyard where the study was located.
King Cheng didn't have time to think, so he immediately ordered: "Additional manpower will be deployed at the front door, back door, and walls. No one will be allowed to break in tonight."
The guards who had just been gathered around looked puzzled.
After the curfew, most of the guards who were not on duty tonight had just gone to sleep when they were shouted at by His Highness.
Then without saying anything, His Highness directly ordered them to stop the enemies who were about to break into Prince Cheng's Mansion.
But where is this?
Chengwang Mansion, the residence of the eldest son of the current emperor.
Who is so bold as to attack Prince Cheng's Mansion?
And they didn't see the enemy's position.
But no matter what, since His Highness King Cheng has given the order, they can only choose to abide by it.
However, because they were a little unclear, their actions were not considered positive.
King Cheng did not urge him.
He vaguely felt that he had already thought of the omissions, and he only needed to break the last layer of window paper, and then all doubts would be solved.
But the more anxious I am, the less I can think of it.
It wasn't until all the guards arrived at their posts that a flash of inspiration flashed in King Cheng's mind.
King Cheng's expression changed drastically, and he immediately ordered all guards to be withdrawn.
However, it was too late.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Only the sound of bombings could be heard one after another.
Like the wrath of heaven.
In just a moment, in King Cheng's eyes, the entire periphery of Prince Cheng's Mansion burst into flames.
"Zhao Yutai..."
King Cheng gritted his teeth and recited Di Xin's name in the ancient moon world, wishing he could eat it.
The main component of fireworks is gunpowder.
As long as the dose of gunpowder is sufficient, it is explosive.
King Cheng once considered whether to build explosives in the Ancient Moon Realm, but after careful consideration, he decided to wait until he became the Emperor of Dali before making any plans.
He does not have an army that he can directly control. Before the great cause is accomplished, increasing the military strength of Dali is likely to add obstacles to himself.
And he believed that other world lords who came to Dali basically thought the same way.
However, he did not expect that someone actually developed explosives and used them against him.
Isn't that person afraid that after tonight, the court will ask him to present his gunpowder technology and then turn against him?
No, maybe he really isn't afraid.
Chengwang figured it out instantly.
As long as King Yu can eliminate him tonight, then he will become the most powerful successor to the crown prince in Dali, and the other princes will not be able to compete.
However, the movement tonight cannot be hidden from anyone.
It has always been intolerable to the royal family for brothers to fight each other.
Even King Cheng could only do it secretly when he wanted to plot against Emperor Xin, but today after the existence of Mingyue Tower was revealed at the court meeting, he chose to remain silent.
How dare he do that?
If we attack him tonight, won't he be afraid of being punished by the court tomorrow?
With just the few men in Prince Yu's Mansion, even with the bonus of gunpowder, it was impossible for them to break into the palace and force the emperor to abdicate.
unless……
This matter was tacitly approved by the man in the palace.
King Cheng suddenly raised his head.
It was at this time that he discovered that no officers and soldiers had come to the rescue since Prince Cheng's Mansion was attacked.
This is the inner city where dignitaries live, and it is even the residence of the current prince.
"really……"
King Cheng closed his eyes.
"It's too late!"
Meanwhile, a few blocks away.
The signal flares rising in the night sky naturally attracted the attention of many patrols, and the explosion behind them alarmed almost everyone.
Although gunpowder did not appear in the ancient moon world before, the magical powers of some illuminating magicians can also produce similar effects.
The flames rising from Cheng Wang's palace confirmed that someone was attacking the palace of the current prince.
However, just when they wanted to rush over.
On the streets surrounding Prince Cheng's Mansion, groups of people in different costumes suddenly appeared.
Coarse clothes, linen, brocade silk and satin.
At a glance, wealthy businessmen, hawkers, and porters, regardless of rank, were all mixed together.
Then these people stopped them.
Although they were dressed differently, after these people gathered together, the officers and soldiers preparing to support Prince Cheng's Mansion discovered that these people were all from the army, and they had rules for marching and retreating.
The next moment, in front of the team of traffickers and merchants, someone took something out of his arms.
