King Yong took the impeachment of Di Yuanzheng, the veteran general, as the first step in his plan.
In this way, you can support your own people to take over the city protection army, and the defense of the palace is in your own hands.
Then, we can deal with Ouchi guards and Zhenfusi more effectively.
The next day, morning.
Without Jiang Qiulu, King Yong became the most senior person in charge.
As the regent, King Yong had the power to manage government affairs for Jiang Qiulu.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the second-in-command in the entire palace.
At the beginning of the morning court, King Yong sat on his own chair.
"Everyone, since His Majesty is not here, I will be in charge of government affairs on my behalf."
King Yong paused and looked at the civil and military officials below.
These people all have different expressions.
"Now, the Turkic dynasty dares to send assassins to assassinate His Majesty."
"We, the Great Xia Dynasty, will definitely not take this matter lightly!"
King Yong's words are very righteous.
Those who didn't know thought that King Yong was a loyal minister.
"Your Majesty, the Turkic Dynasty has gone too far in this matter."
"But the truth is that we need to start rectifying it from within."
After saying that, Prime Minister Guo Xiaosen looked at Di Yuanzheng.
Then, many other ministers also focused their attention on Di Yuanzheng.
But Di Yuanzheng was not afraid at all.
"General Di, what do you think?" King Yong asked.
"As the regent, King Yong holds a high and powerful position."
"This old man is just a martial artist, how dare he make rash conclusions?"
Di Yuanzheng said with an indifferent attitude.
Literally speaking, Di Yuanzheng's words express his self-effacing attitude.
However, everyone knew about the rift between King Yong and General Di.
In the entire Daxia Dynasty, there was no one who dared to challenge King Yong.
Besides King Jiang, it’s you, Di Yuanzheng.
You are still here, some ministers thought to themselves.
When King Yong saw Di Yuanzheng's attitude, his face suddenly darkened.
I wanted to dig a hole for Di Yuanzheng and let him jump in by himself.
As a result, the old man didn't even look at this pit.
At this time, Guo Xiaosen spoke again.
"General Di, there are assassins in Kyoto City again."
"This time the assassin even rushed into the palace to commit murder."
"Aren't you going to reflect on yourself, General Di?"
Seeing Di Yuanzheng pretending to be confused, Guo Xiaosen simply put the issue in the open.
"Reflect on what?"
"I am in charge of the west Beijing camp and the city guard army."
"At least the assassin did not commit murder when he entered Kyoto City."
"Who could have known that he was the assassin?"
"If you are afraid, you can ask His Majesty to order that all the gates of Kyoto City be closed directly."
"This way we can't get out, and outsiders can't get in, so there won't be any assassins."
What Di Yuanzheng said was completely the attitude of a rogue.
What he said is wrong, but it does make some sense.
All in all, it’s very awkward.
"Di Yuanzheng, above the court, what is your attitude?"
"Isn't what the truth said obvious enough?"
"As a general protecting the country, you didn't find out the identity of the people entering the city."
"You don't deserve this position!"
Di Yuanzheng's strong words and sophistry made Guo Xiaosen angry.
So he raised his voice and began to question Di Yuanzheng.
It was also suggested that Di Yuanzheng was not suitable for this position.
"Your Majesty, Di Yuanzheng has neglected his duties and is ineffective."
"The Prime Minister proposes that Di Yuanzheng be removed from the post of General Protecting the Country and that General Lu Yongxu be appointed to take up the post."
Immediately afterwards, several ministers came out to second the proposal.
Unexpectedly, Di Yuanzheng sneered at this moment.
"Guo Xiaosen, this is your real purpose."
"You want to remove me from my position and replace him with someone of your own."
"I'm telling you clearly, dream!"
The hussar general Lu Yong was a member of King Yong's party.
With Guo Xiaosen's support, he got the position of General Hussar.
Now, he still dares to get involved in the position of general protecting the country. Doesn't Di Yuanzheng stop him from keeping him for the New Year?
"Let's not talk about whether you can remove me from my position."
"Even if you all unite, you can't do anything to me."
"I have been on the battlefield for more than forty years. The late emperor personally appointed me as the general protecting the country. How can I be impeached by you?"
"Guo Xiaosen, after talking about this, I have a question."
"Do you want to get this position because you want to rebel?"
Di Yuanzheng looked at Guo Xiaosen with an evil look and asked coldly.
When they heard the word rebellion, everyone was stunned.
As a member of the imperial palace, the most taboo thing is rebellion.
If discovered, it will definitely result in the house being confiscated.
"Di Yuanzheng, stop spitting here!"
At this time, King Yong finally couldn't sit still.
King Yong had just seen that when Di Yuanzheng talked about rebellion, he specifically looked at himself.
"Do you know what the consequences of this will be?" King Yong asked sternly.
"I don't know what the consequences will be."
"But I tell you, unless His Majesty himself speaks."
"Or you can kill me, otherwise you won't be able to take away the position of General Protector!"
"You!" King Yong suddenly became angry.
I did think that it would not be easy to target Di Yuanzheng.
But who would have thought that Di Yuanzheng would be such a rogue.
All he had to do was roll around in the court hall.
"In that case, let's talk about reality."
"An assassin has entered the palace. As the general protecting the country, you are in charge of the Jingxi camp and the city protection army."
"Don't you have any responsibility?" King Yong took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm.
"Your Majesty, if an assassin enters the palace, you should go to the Zhenfu Division or the Ouchi Guards to ask for an explanation."
"There are so many people coming in and out of Kyoto City every day, should we investigate the backgrounds of them one by one?"
King Yong and his followers were stunned.
Di Yuanzheng's laozi style really effectively disrupted King Yong's plan.
However, this is just delaying time.
After all, King Yong was not just targeting Di Yuanzheng.
"presumptuous!"
King Yong clapped his hands, shouted loudly, and stood up.
"Di Yuanzheng, this is not the reason why you put assassins in the city."
"Come here, take General Di back to his mansion to rest, and take good care of him."
"Their affairs are temporarily managed by Hussar General Lu Yong!"
King Yong waved his hand and gave the order directly.
Then, several guards immediately appeared in the court and took Di Yuanzheng away.
"I can leave by myself!"
Di Yuanzheng threw away the guards and walked out of the Jinluan Palace in a hurry.
Seeing Di Yuanzheng leaving, King Yong sat down.
Under King Yong's initiative, his party members also took action.
He began to suppress dissidents, and even prepared to secretly assassinate others.
But if you do this, you won't be able to escape Jin Yiwei's eyes.
So, King Yong made his next plan.
In Prince Yong's Mansion, Prime Minister Guo Xiaosen and several confidants are here.
"The next goal."
"Lock up Di Yunhao, the commander of the Zhenfu Division, and take over the Zhenfu Division."
King Yong said.
"Your Majesty, the Zhenfu Division was founded by His Majesty himself. Can we do it?" one person asked.
