When the gatekeepers changed shifts, Du Yuyan was taken away by someone.

Du Yuyan wanted to use poison to murder Liu Qingyan, but was taken down on the spot. This incident became the guide of the upcoming storm in the imperial city.

After one wave of delay and another wave of attacks, I thought that if I took down these three or two shadow puppets, the matter could come to an end, but the matter was far from that simple.

The hall that was originally prepared for the Queen Mother's birthday is now full of flesh and blood, and everyone is in danger of being in this hall.

As long as there are several princes, this shadow puppet was brought into the capital by the prince, and after the incident, it will naturally become a loss for everyone.

"King Yan, what explanation do you want to explain this?" Jiu Qiansui asked the current emperor's younger brother in that gloomy tone.

"Emperor, you must be clear about this matter. I have no intention of murdering the emperor. I have always adhered to my duty in my fiefdoms and paid tribute to the heavenly dynasty. I sincerely understand the world." The King of Yan said loudly.

"What a heartfelt heart. If it weren't for Jiu Qiansui and Lord Lu today, you would have already done it." The emperor sneered.

The emperor, who had already developed the intention to retreat, felt very sad when he saw that the King of Yan was like this, and he asked sternly, "We are my mother, why do we do this? The emperor has been treating you well over the years. I am not inconvenient to say more about my mother here just now."

Jiu Qiansui still tried his best to persuade the guards to protect the emperor and the prince to retreat, and the others stayed in the hall until everything was found out.

At this time, Lu Siguan was still unable to return to the emperor while sending the Empress Dowager and Liu Qingyan to Cining Palace.

The emperor thought the situation in the imperial city had been controlled, but he didn't know that a bigger crisis was coming quietly, and things were not that simple.

...

"The emperor's brother is indeed not what my brother does. I will definitely not do these things in front of my mother's queen. Besides, I have no intention of fighting for power and have already expressed my love to flowers and plants." The King of Yan said softly with tears in his eyes.

Seeing this scene, the emperor could not speak, so he turned around and turned his back to the ministers.

"Your Majesty, you should leave this unknown place, and the old slave will deal with it." Jiu Qiansui said again.

"Your Majesty, this matter is very important, you should think twice." All the ministers did not dare to speak, so only Song Jingchen stood up and said something to the King of Yan.

Upon hearing this, the emperor slowly turned around and said, "Are you a fellow party?" he asked loudly.

"Your Majesty, let me listen to my words for now." Song Jingchen said righteously, without seeing any fear.

"I think this matter cannot be done by the King of Yan. This time he went to Beijing alone and did not bring any troops or horses. If he failed, he would be confirmed on the spot and was a death sentence. Even if it was done, he would not escape death. After all, there were thousands of guards guarding here in the imperial city." Song Jingchen continued.

"Mr. Song is very true. You must carefully consider your words. Although I am not willing to die, after I die, the person who murdered the emperor is still there. The emperor still needs to find out the reason." The King of Yan snatched the words.

"What does Lord Song mean? This is a person who has gained both people and the King of Yan?" Jiu Qiansui looked at Song Jingchen with an unhappy look and asked loudly.

Jiu Qiansui underestimated Song Jingchen too much. He is definitely different from Lord Du. Although he is only a teacher, he can compete with Lu Siguan in terms of strategy and talent, and no one else in the capital can match it.

However, Song Jingchen has not been in the official career for a long time and is behind Lord Du. He naturally does not show much water leakage on weekdays, so he will definitely not be able to find it even if he is nine thousand years old.

This time, the mission to Fanbian can well illustrate Song Jingchen's talent. No matter what method he used, he eventually took back the city that Fanbian snatched from the hands of the Celestial Empire with just a mouth.

At this time, the Heavenly Kingdom was weak, so the foreign countries naturally knew about it. Even so, Song Jingchen also took back the city and asked the foreign countries to pay tribute every year.

"Jiu Qiansui said that I should think twice. I, Song, have been away from Jing for many days. So many things have happened in this capital. I, Song, have heard a little about it in the foreign country. Anyone with a discerning eye can see through it at a glance. Do you have to tell me?" Song Jingchen never gave in at all.

Jiu Qiansui was very unhappy. He didn't expect that Song Jingchen, who had only been in the government for a few years, would dare to say this to him.

He also understood what Song Jingchen said, felt the threat from Song Jingchen, but unexpectedly sent away a Lord Song and came a more powerful character.

"Okay, don't argue anymore. I understand what Lord Song meant and think it's not without reason. It will definitely not be so simple at this time. King Yan is also my younger brother. How can he be on the birthday of his mother..." The emperor said bluntly.

"The emperor is wise." Song Jingchen glanced at Jiu Qiansui while speaking, and found that Jiu Qiansui's face turned green.

"But today I will find out the truth about this matter. I will pardon the world, but I will definitely not let go of such a disobedient person." After that, the emperor glanced at everyone.

At this time, the hall had been surrounded by the Imperial Brigade. There were about 300 people on the hall, and everyone was in danger.

"Today I have appointed Lord Song as Prime Minister and ordered him to take over it. Today, I will definitely bring the murderer to justice and assist him in nine thousand years." After saying that, he turned around and left, and he was worried that the Empress Dowager would also want to take the prince to leave this bloody scene.

"The emperors are grateful, and I will definitely not be humiliated." Song Jingchen bowed to thank the emperor for his kindness.

When Jiu Qiansui heard that the emperor appointed Song Jingchen as prime minister, he suddenly felt nervous, and then he realized that he had shot himself in the foot with a stone.

I thought I would push Lord Du down and promote Lu Guozheng to the throne. From now on, all the civil and military officials in the court were already following their own leadership, but I never thought that Song Jingchen would appear on the birthday of the empress dowager.

Next was Lu Guozheng, who had been running around in various officials' mansions in the capital for several days. He originally thought that the position of prime minister was already in his pocket, but now he was very sad when he saw the cooked duck flying. He couldn't say anything about his pain.

The emperor announced in court that all the ministers were present, and Jiu Qiansui and Lu Guozheng had no way to refute the slightest, so they could only accept it silently.

Just now, Song Jingchen had already given three big gifts to the emperor, and he next planned to give the emperor a bigger gift.

The emperor asked Jiu Qiansui to assist Song Jingchen because he also thought that Song Jingchen had just refuted Jiu Qiansui's words in the court, so naturally there was something in his words.

After the emperor left the hall with two princes and a group of imperial concubines, he walked towards the direction of Cining Palace, with only dozens of guards protecting him.

When Jiu Qiansui saw the emperor leave the hall, although he was a little unhappy about Song Jingchen's incident just now, a cold smile appeared on his face.

...

Liu Qingyan helped the Empress Dowager walk on the way to Cining Palace. As she walked, she welcomed a patrol army in front of her.

Right in front of the patrol team, a guard aroused Liu Qingyan's alertness. She suddenly felt that this person looked very familiar, but she had seen him somewhere.

I felt a strange feeling in my heart, but in this urgent situation, Liu Qingyan didn't have time to think about anything more.

While she was looking at the guard, the guard also looked at him, his eyes so familiar.

While supporting the Empress Dowager, he continued to walk forward, and looked back at the figure of the guard from time to time, and grabbed his head with his hands from time to time.

Lu Siguan, who was standing by, found that Liu Qingyan was a little strange, but the Empress Dowager was not easy to ask questions, so she just gave Liu Qingyan two winks.

Liu Qingyan signaled Lu Siguan to check out the Imperial Guard who had just passed by, but Lu Siguan didn't understand her meaning at all.

She was about to reach Cining Palace along the way, and she felt more and more uneasy. She walked up the steps. As soon as she reached the door, Liu Qingyan suddenly shouted, "I remember, how could she appear in the palace?"

Liu Qingyan's words shocked Lu Siguan and the Empress Dowager, and everyone stared at her with wide eyes.

At this time, she seemed very panicked, "Hurry... Go back to the hall quickly." Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Siguan and said anxiously.

"Miss Lu, what's wrong with you?" the Empress Dowager asked softly.

"Qi Bi, the Empress Dowager, the folk girl saw a familiar figure among the group of guards she had just joined. She just didn't remember it for a while. Now I remembered that the person was the person who followed me on the streets of the capital the day before yesterday." Liu Qingyan said loudly.

"Tell me clearly, who is following you?" Lu Siguan looked at Liu Qingyan with his eyes straight, and did not expect that the emperor and the eldest son were already in danger.

"I don't know, I saw that person outside the palace yesterday. Why did he become the captain of the guard today? Don't you think it's a bit strange?" Liu Qingyan's words woke up Lu Siguan.

After hearing Liu Qingyan's words, the Empress Dowager became nervous and looked at Lu Siguan and said, "Sir Lu, hurry up and go to the hall to take a look. You must protect the emperor's vitality."

"As for the order, the Empress Dowager should return to Cining Palace soon, so I can go back with peace of mind." Lu Siguan said softly.

After seeing Liu Qingyan and the Empress Dowager entering the Cining Palace, Lu Siguan ordered his trusted men to guard the Cining Palace to the death and not allow any idle people to enter, so he left to chase the Royal Guards just now.

...

On the other hand, the emperor took two princes and a group of imperial concubines out of the hall. He didn't go far and met this team of guards who came to patrol.

Seeing the emperor from afar, these large groups of guards squatted down to salute the emperor.

When he saw these guards, he felt much safer. He walked forward slowly, and was about to walk to the next side of the guard. A guard leaned over and rushed towards the emperor with a quick step.

The guard ran and pulled out his sword from his waist. Seeing this, several guards who protected the emperor stood in front of the emperor. However, the lurking guard was too skilled in martial arts and instantly killed several guards who protected the emperor under the sword.
