Due to the continuous occurrence of major incidents, the security of the Holy City has been upgraded.
When Xu Zun and Huo Anu were riding back to the Imperial Palace, they saw groups of soldiers in silver armor patrolling the streets.
Others rushed directly to the palace to increase the garrison strength.
Xu Zun knew that these were the Beiya Imperial Guards specially dispatched by Lin Chaofeng, including left and right Weiwei, left and right Xiaowei, etc.
These forbidden troops are mainly responsible for the security of the imperial city and generally do not enter the palace.
However, seeing these groups of forbidden troops passing by, Xu Zun still had an ominous premonition in his heart.
If Xuanmen really uses pills to launch attacks, then these forbidden troops seem to be the first choice targets, right?
Thinking of this, he quickly found a leader of the Forbidden Army and asked them when they would have lunch.
However, the leader said that they were sent here in the morning, and they might have to wait until dark before returning to the military camp to eat.
Xu Zun asked where their military camp was?
The leader replied that they were all reserve troops of the Bei Ya Forbidden Army, and the military camp was stationed outside the Holy Capital City.
After hearing these words, Xu Zun realized that the Imperial Guards were numerous and stationed at various important locations in the Holy Capital.
So their schedules and work arrangements are all different...
Therefore, if we want to prevent this unknown catastrophe, we cannot just start by checking when they eat.
Thinking of this, Xu Zun didn't waste any more time, and together with Huo Anu, flew back to the Imperial Palace on Pegasus and came to the central hall.
But I saw that the experts who had been busy all night last night were still working hard to study the geological structure, ancient ruins and underground ditches of the Holy City.
Since they were all very young, everyone looked tired and had dark circles under their eyes.
Seeing Xu Zun's arrival, experts headed by Lan Qizhi, Minister of Industry, immediately gathered around and wanted to inquire about the progress of the case.
Xu Zun had no time to pay attention to them, but went directly back to his studio and looked at the dense clues and information compiled on the table.
At this time, I turned back to look at the information again, and found that the hidden meaning seemed to be far beyond my expectation.
And when he opened the information and found what he wanted, he suddenly realized that he collapsed on the chair.
"Xu Zun, you are back!" As soon as Xu Zun arrived, Cai Kun, the leader of the inner guard pavilion, hurried in, "I just heard from Li Xing, are you sure that Xuanmen's real method is poisoning?
"Do you know that preventing the Jinwu Guards and Yulin Guards from changing shifts is no joke. Also..." Cai Kun pointed to the next door, "That Dongfang Enchanting is still alive after being trapped in the enemy camp, isn't it...
…”
"Sir..." Xu Zun no longer cared about etiquette, jumped up from his chair, pulled Cai Kun to him, and said hurriedly, "The so-called Operation Heavenly Tribulation actually refers to their entire plan.
From the moment of the assassination, it has already begun!"
"ah!!?"
Cai Kun had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and immediately his face turned blue and his body trembled.
"This is a huge conspiracy to overthrow our Daxuan. Its huge and complicated procedures may be far beyond our imagination!" Xu Zun said, "They have already planned every detail, starting from the assassination, step by step.
My Daxuan is in the process of being overturned!
"Their plan is to use that large-scale assassination to arouse the suspicion of the Queen Mother from all parties, and first cause chaos within Daxuan.
"So, they lay dormant after the assassination, waiting for the forces that opposed the Queen Mother to take action, thus causing chaos in the Holy Capital.
"However, the Queen Mother used a 'for my own advantage' strategy to temporarily suppress this crisis," Xu Zun said tapping the map with his finger, "So, their plan was disrupted!
"Originally, they wanted to wait until the opposition forces entered the city and caused chaos in the Holy Capital before implementing their subsequent plans.
"In this way, not only can they achieve their goals, but they can also escape unscathed!"
"Is...is it really so scary?" Cai Kun was shocked, "What on earth are they going to do? Is it really like what you said, use...what kind of poison?"
"I can't figure it out. Our Imperial Guard has been monitoring the Holy City. How could these Xuanmen rebels cause such a big thing?"
"Master Cai," Xu Zun said excitedly, "Don't you understand yet? This is not a terrorist attack at all, this is simply a conspiracy coup!
"If there are no more senior figures behind the scenes to plan and implement it, how can those terrorists alone accomplish anything?"
"Ah? This... this..." Cai Kun turned pale with fright, "You mean... there are really high-ranking officials in the court, or... or... princes..."
"Sir," Huo Anu asked anxiously, "since you have determined that they are going to take action, let's hurry up? Noon hasn't arrived yet, maybe it's still too late?"
"Yes, yes," Cai Kun said, "Didn't you just say that the Xuanmen rebels might use poison? I will summon all the personnel of the Internal Guards now to prevent the palace guards from changing their shifts..."
"It's not just the palace guards," Xu Zun shook his head and sighed, "Now I finally understand why they took the risk of being exposed and set off an explosion at Taipingmen!"
"Ah? This..." Although Cai Kun was in shock, he immediately figured out what Xu Zun meant, "No way? You mean, even those forbidden troops... this..."
"After the explosion, the defense of the Holy City was naturally upgraded, so all the imperial troops were transferred to the city," Xu Zun said, "In this way, they can barely achieve the effect they want!
"I don't know who this master behind the scenes is, but his ability to adapt to changing circumstances is quite impressive!"
"Then..." Cai Kun quickly winked at his men and asked him to gather men, and then said to Xu Zun, "Even if they want the Forbidden Army to cause chaos, we must do our best to stop them.
"Isn't it poison? Then we tell everyone not to eat or drink anything!"
"I'm afraid..." Xu Zun shook his head and sighed, "It's too late! They planned to take action at noon, but it takes half an hour for the poison to take effect, and now it's almost noon time, which means they should have already taken action!"
"Ah!!? This..." Cai Kun turned pale in shock and asked loudly, "Is there no other way to remedy this?"
"I heard Ani talking about it," Huo Anu said with a look of despair, "that kind of pill can make people crazy for several days after taking it!"
"The effect they want is nothing more than chaos!" Xu Zun said, "The entire Heavenly Tribulation plan is complicated and complicated, with many threads, but if they want to give me a fatal blow to Daxuan, there must be someone more direct.
Action!"
"Ah..." Cai Kun asked, "You mean, they not only want to cause chaos, but...can they really break into the palace?"
"Master Cai," Xu Zun stared at Cai Kun and said, "Now, I have almost figured out most of their plans, except for the person hiding at the back.
"In view of this natural disaster, I, Xu Zun, dare not say that I can turn the tide, but if you can cooperate with me well, there may be a turning point!!!"
