The night became darker and darker, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.
The tense atmosphere filled every corner of the imperial city.
This is a contest of power and interests, a contest concerning the fate of the country.
Both sides are fully prepared.
They carefully planned and recruited troops in an attempt to gain the upper hand in this struggle.
Everyone involved knows that this victory or defeat is not only related to their status and power.
It's more about their life and death.
Su Ye looked at the bright moonlight and made a mysterious gesture.
Behind him, the Jin Yiwei and the people from Wentian Tower moved in response.
They merged into all the forces like ghosts, and no one knew about their existence.
Like a hunter in the dark night, stalking the Game of Thrones.
Su Ye himself, with his most trusted soldiers, went to the palace dressed in white.
In this extremely dark night, he stood out like a white flag.
The night was like ink, and Su Ye's eyes were like torches, as if he could see through everything.
The soldiers around him are all the best of the best.
They were extremely loyal to Su Ye and would serve him to the death.
Along the way, no one dared to stop him!
At this time, the Imperial Palace of Yan State was majestic and magnificent, brightly lit, and the guards were ready.
Chen Mu led three thousand imperial troops, shouting slogans of "Qing Jun, Li Ming Jun", and killed them all the way to the palace.
He no longer concealed his attempts to rebel.
Just because he is convinced.
At this time, Yan Lichu was definitely isolated and helpless, and could only desperately rely on the hundreds of guards in the palace to resist.
"Come on -"
The Imperial Guards stormed the palace gate with great force.
The huge door-breaking hammer hit the closed palace door again and again, and the deafening roar echoed in the night sky.
Finally, under a violent impact.
The gate of the palace burst open under the impact of powerful force.
The Imperial Guards poured into this palace of power like a tide.
They were wearing armor, holding sharp weapons, with firm faces and a rainbow of momentum.
Chen Mu had a ferocious smile on his face at this moment.
His eyes sparkled with a desire for power, knowing that victory was just around the corner.
However, the guards guarding the palace did not give up easily.
They resisted desperately and regarded death as their own.
A fierce battle broke out in the palace.
The warriors brandished sharp swords and fought life and death with their enemies.
Swords and swords flashed, flesh and blood flew everywhere.
The halls and corridors in the palace were filled with a strong smell of blood.
The number of the Forbidden Army was dozens of times that of the palace guards, and they soon gained an absolute advantage.
Auxiliary Minister Chen Mu, along with several trusted officers and soldiers and the commander of the imperial army, paid no attention to the chaotic battle situation around them.
In the palace, it was like entering a deserted place, and went straight to the Zichen Palace.
That's where Yan Lichu's bedroom is!
Chen Mu and his party passed through palaces and gates.
Blood splattered everywhere and screams were heard.
Chen Mu didn't squint, he only wanted to force the palace maid, Emperor Yan Lichu!
As soon as they entered the Zichen Hall, everyone saw Yan Lichu on the dragon chair.
But he saw that Yan Lichu was alone, showing no sign of being isolated and helpless.
He looked calm, as if this was an ordinary morning.
And she was just meeting officials from the previous court.
For some reason, seeing Yan Lichu like this, Chen Mu and his group suddenly stopped in their tracks.
Could there be any ambush in this?
That cunning Su Ye.
I wonder if a dragnet has been laid in Zichen Palace, waiting for them to fall into the trap?
Yan Lichu looked at the hesitant Chen Mu with a sneer on his lips:
"Chen Mu, you betrayed our country, plotted to kill Zhongliang, and now you dare to lead troops into the palace. Do you know your guilt?"
A trace of panic flashed in Chen Mu's eyes, but he quickly covered it up.
Anger made him lose his doubts and smiled arrogantly:
"Yan Lichu, now that the power is in my hands, you have become a loner, and you still dare to be so arrogant!"
Things have been well prepared, this is all just a bluff!
This Yan Lichu has clearly become unable to fly!
Chen Mu's eyes flashed, and he immediately stepped forward and pointed directly at Yan Lichu:
"Yan Lichu, Great Yan does not need an emperor who is bewitched by traitors. If you have the sense to abdicate in favor of a worthy man, you may be able to spare your life!"
Yan Lichu's eyes flashed with a cold light as he inspected the group of officials who were openly forcing the palace.
Among them, the leader was his most respected elder, Chen Mu, the elder of the Three Dynasties.
There are also military officers and civil servants who have been promoted by themselves.
Or people from the four major families.
They all swore allegiance to Yan Lichu and the State of Yan, and then died with exhaustion!
However, now, for the sake of profit and status, they have turned their backs on themselves.
Yan Lichu felt a sense of sadness in her heart, but she did not show it. Instead, she smiled faintly:
"I have always been kind to you, but today I did such a treacherous thing!"
Chen Mu's expression changed and he said angrily:
"Yan Lichu, don't toast me and you'll be fined if you don't eat!"
With that said, he drew his sword and pointed it at Yan Lichu.
At this moment, a calm voice suddenly came from outside the hall:
"Chen Mu, how dare you!"
As the voice fell, a figure in white slowly walked into the Zichen Palace, it was Su Ye.
Su Ye's eyes were as bright as fire and he said coldly:
"Chen Mu, you committed a crime and deserved death!"
When Chen Mu saw Su Ye, his expression suddenly changed.
He was afraid that Su Ye in white would use his clever tricks to disrupt his plan like he did before.
But when he saw that Su Ye was the only one, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
The three thousand forbidden troops made Chen Mu feel confident and pointed his finger directly at Su Ye:
"Today, I will get rid of you, this demagogue and sycophant, for Yan State!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Su Ye's mouth. He was not afraid of Chen Mu's threat, but looked at him with confidence:
"Chen Mu, do you really think that you can control the entire Yan Kingdom with just three thousand forbidden troops?"
At this time, Yan Lichu suddenly said:
"Chen Mu, put down your weapon now, and I will spare your life."
Until this moment, Yan Lichu still thought about his life-saving grace.
Unfortunately, Chen Mu, who was obsessed with profit, just laughed three times and looked disdainfully at the two people who seemed to be helpless in front of him:
"That's not a small tone. The entire palace has been occupied by me. Do you still want to make a comeback?"
After saying that, his face suddenly turned sinister:
"Do it!"
Since Yan Lichu and Su Ye refused to cooperate.
Then after sunrise tomorrow, the entire Yan State will receive news of the emperor's death.
And Su Ye will also become a sinner of history!
The commander of the Imperial Guard behind him quickly moved forward in response.
The Imperial Guards drew their weapons one after another and approached Su Ye and Yan Lichu menacingly.
The armor on his body collided with his sword, making a sharp sound.
In this empty and dark palace, it seemed particularly harsh.
Chen Mu only felt that this was the most beautiful sound in the world. He seemed to have seen Yan Lichu and Su Ye staining the hall with blood.
Until the sound got closer and closer.
Until that cold sword was placed on his neck!
How can this be? !
