The commander understood, took a deep breath, waved his hand, and dozens of forbidden troops rushed forward. Under the leadership of the commander, they went straight to the imperial study.
As he climbed the steps, there was a crashing sound in front of him, which was the sound of armor plates colliding.
The commander-in-chief looked up and saw that outside the door of the royal study, the warriors in front of the palace were already waiting in full formation.
Seeing this situation, the Commander-in-Chief's face suddenly became extremely serious, but feeling the gaze of Li Yong behind him, he still bit the bullet and shouted to the warrior in front of the palace: "Get out of the way, I have something important to discuss with His Majesty!"
The warriors in front of the palace were unmoved. A dozen of them faced the increasing number of imperial troops who were constantly coming to support them. They showed no fear at all, and their eyes were as solid as a rock.
The leader of the group, Zhou Zhenhai, the warrior president in front of the palace, was condescending and looked down upon Wu Chi, the newly promoted commander of the Forbidden Army. His disdain was undisguised.
"Commander Wu, haven't you decided whether His Majesty has seen you or not? As the commander of the Forbidden Army, you know the situation in the palace better than anyone else. I advise you to go back to where you came from."
Facing Zhou Zhenhai's merciless expulsion, Wu Chi took a deep breath and his expression became more aggressive.
"There is no need to remind Commander Zhou, I naturally know the situation in this palace!"
"There are 30,000 imperial troops, but there are less than 1,000 warriors in front of the palace. You are all rare and rare people, but you must learn to cherish your wings."
"Today, even if the sky collapses and the earth falls apart, it cannot stop me from seeing Your Majesty!"
As he spoke, Wu Chi took another step up.
Wow…
All the fully armed warriors in front of the palace raised their rifles and aimed at Wu Chi. As long as he dared to take another step forward, they would kill him without mercy.
Feeling the killing intent of the warriors in front of the palace, Wu Chi was not to be outdone. With a glance, there were already hundreds of forbidden troops behind him, and they all showed their weapons.
This was the first time since the founding of the Liang Dynasty that troops faced off outside the imperial study room, and they all showed their weapons.
"Step aside!"
Wu Chi's tone was extremely sharp, his right hand pressed on the handle of the knife, ready to see blood.
Zhou Zhenhai’s eyes showed no emotion at all: “If you have the ability, just step over my corpse.”
Wu Chi directly pulled out his waist knife, pointed the blade coldly at Zhou Zhenhai, and said in one word: "Do you want to die?!"
Now that he has decided to force the palace, Wu Chi no longer leaves any room. After all, even if he retreats now, he will still be charged as a traitor and will inevitably implicate the nine clans.
Since you want to do it, then do it thoroughly and support the new emperor to inherit the throne, so that you can be prosperous and wealthy.
Even though the warriors in front of the palace are extremely elite, they are still few in number, less than a thousand. Facing 30,000 forbidden troops, they will eventually die.
But Zhou Zhenhai had no intention of retreating. After all, from the beginning of the establishment of the palace warriors, their mission was to protect the emperor. As for who the emperor was, they didn't care.
As long as Emperor Liang still sits on the throne, Zhou Zhenhai and all the warriors in front of the palace will fight until the last moment.
Just when the battle between the two sides was about to break out, Zhang Xiuye suddenly ran over in a hurry.
Zhang Xiuye, an old fox, knew everything about the affairs in the palace. He had long known that Li Yong could no longer bear the loneliness and was ready to take action in advance. Today's scene was all expected.
Seeing the tense situation between the two sides, Zhang Xiuye pretended not to see it, and shouted from a distance: "Your Majesty, Qin Taiwei wants to see you."
When he learned that Qin Tianhu was coming, Wu Chi's eyes clearly showed a hint of panic. After all, what happened in the palace today must not be spread, otherwise, if Qin Tianhu joins the throne, the consequences will be disastrous!
Wu Chi gritted his teeth and became more murderous. He simply refused to do anything and killed Qin Tianhu too!
Even if Qin Feng is determined to retaliate, he will have to wait until the new emperor succeeds to the throne and takes charge of the world. By then, it is not yet known who will win with the power to control the imperial party and the garrison in the capital!
But when Wu Chi turned around and looked over, his heart skipped a beat.
Qin Tianhu was not alone. There was a young man accompanying him. He was actually... Zhao Yulong? !
Qin Tianhu glanced at Wu Chi and ignored him. As for the Imperial Guards beside him, Qin Tianhu couldn't stand it, so he went straight to the imperial study.
Seeing the Forbidden Army crowding in front, Zhao Yulong, who was following Qin Tianhu, shouted coldly: "Get away!"
Several Forbidden Soldiers were stunned, but Zhao Yulong pulled out his sword and killed them on the spot. The Forbidden Soldiers next to him were frightened and retreated continuously.
Zhao Yulong directly touched the corpse, wiped the blood on the knife, and killed several forbidden soldiers as casually as killing a chicken.
Feeling Wu Chi's angry look, Zhao Yulong remained expressionless and wrote lightly: "There are one thousand black cavalry and three hundred Tianji camp guards outside the palace gate. If Taiwei Qin and I don't leave the palace within half an hour, they will come in." . The garrison at Tianji Camp and the Dragon and Tiger Army will also take action after hearing the news."
"Commander Wu, if you are brave enough, be more ruthless. If you don't have the courage, get out of here! Don't delay the Lieutenant's important event."
Wu Chi's face turned red and he wanted to kill Zhao Yulong several times, but he held back at the last moment.
After all, the black cavalry and Tianji camp guards outside the palace are no joke. Once they come in, the battle between King Qin will begin. Not to mention Wu Chi and the imperial army, even the seventh prince Li Yong will not be able to escape death.
Wu Chi gritted his teeth and turned around. At the moment, only Li Yong could make the decision.
Zhou Zhenhai, who was guarding the door of the study, cupped his fists and saluted Qin Tianhu: "Greetings, Mr. Taiwei."
Qin Tianhu nodded slightly as a return gift. He opened the door and walked in directly without Zhou Zhenhai's notification.
Zhao Yulong stood at the door of the Imperial Study Room, pressing the handle of the knife, looking at the densely packed Forbidden Army calmly.
At this moment, more than a thousand Imperial Guards had gathered outside the Imperial Study Room. It was obvious that the entire Imperial Guard system was firmly under Li Yong's control.
"General Zhao, thank you very much." Zhou Zhenhai clasped his fists and saluted.
Although the warriors in front of the palace and Qin Feng had a deep grudge, if Qin Tianhu and Zhao Yulong hadn't arrived in time, today's battle would have been impossible to avoid.
One code after another, Zhou Zhenhai sincerely thanked the Qin family for their help.
In the end, it was Zhao Yulong's cold eyes who responded to Zhou Zhenhai: "There is no need to thank me. The Marquis of Qin has left the capital and it is our duty to maintain the status quo in the capital."
"Does Commander Zhou think that the Qin family is the only one the Marquis of Qin cares about? Hmm, that would be too narrow-minded."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhenhai was not displeased at all. On the contrary, the resentment towards Qin Feng in his heart also subsided a lot. After all, only at critical moments can one tell whether a minister is loyal or treacherous.
Zhou Zhenhai took a deep breath and asked tentatively: "How does Lieutenant Qin know what happened in the palace today?"
Zhao Yulong didn't hesitate at all and refused directly: "I have my own methods. I won't mention it more. Commander Zhou just fulfills his duties."
