"You...you colluded with the Shang family..." An Di's lips trembled.
Xiao Yan raised his eyes slightly: "Since I have been to the northwest, I have naturally met people from the Shang family. It's just that the Shang family is the head of the Longting Guard appointed by Taizu. They have protected the royal family for generations, and they only take orders from the orthodox people of the royal family. Say they Your Majesty is serious about colluding with others."
An Di's face became even paler, and he stretched out his fingers on the dragon chair.
orthodox…
The Longting Guard protects the orthodoxy of the royal family and was founded by Taizu himself. If he really came to the throne in the right way, he would not be afraid, but it was he who forced the late emperor to death and took advantage of the chaos to ascend the throne.
Before his death, the late emperor never mentioned anything about Long Tingwei, nor did he tell anyone that tokens were needed to drive Long Tingwei and the Zhen'an Army. Now that the Shang family has brought Long Tingwei into the palace, if it is true Asking for Long Yuling in public, how could the late emperor's death and how he got the throne be concealed?
Emperor An was afraid: "Xiao Yan, you are just a son of the He family. If the Longting Guards attack the imperial city, you will not have an easy time."
"so what?"
There were drums of war outside, and the rumbling sound of the drums almost overwhelmed all the fighting.
The capital city was already in panic due to the chaos in front of the palace gate. The Longting Guards surrounded the city gate and the sound of war drums made all the people panic.
Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to wipe away the blood spattered on Tang Ning's face, speaking with extreme indifference.
"The He family's death was in vain. I have never wanted to sacrifice my life for the sake of the world. All I ask for is justice. But His Majesty's seriousness is really eye-opening. Since Your Majesty doesn't want me to be well, then no one can have a better life. Let the world be buried with His Majesty's willfulness."
When he raised his lips and smiled, it chilled people's hearts for no reason.
"Why is Your Majesty so afraid of Long Tingwei?"
Andy's lips trembled slightly and his palms tightened.
Marquis Wenxin raised his head with cold eyes: "I remember that the Longting Guard was the retreat left by Emperor Taizu for the royal family. The head of the Longting Guard only obeyed the orders of the royal family and was not under the jurisdiction of anyone. The Shang family has never entered the capital in these years. , but have always been respectful to His Majesty, how did you convince them to use them for your benefit?"
Xiao Yan snorted: "Then I have to ask Your Majesty."
Emperor An met the eyes of everyone in the palace and was trembling. He couldn't let people know how the late emperor died or that he had a wrong path to the throne.
Emperor An surrendered instantly: "Xiao Yan, you just want justice for the He family, and I can give it to you."
"The Longting Guards have been entrenched in the northwest for many years. They are no longer what they were when Taizu was around. They dared to disobey the holy order and lead troops to the capital without authorization. The Shang family may have had treacherous intentions. If you seek skin from a tiger, you may not be able to suppress them afterwards. Why don't you and I take a step back."
"I swear that I will definitely help the He family..."
These words sounded very familiar, not to mention Xiao Yan, even other courtiers in the palace couldn't say it.
Fu Laiqing stood next to Qian Qiyue, and there was blood on his body. When he spoke, he was extremely sarcastic.
"Your Majesty also swore an oath to the ancestors of the Ancestral Temple. He even issued an imperial edict, but he turned around and ordered someone to take Xiao Yan's life. He even labeled all the ministers in the dynasty as traitors and wanted to kill them. Your Majesty, you should save your oath, so as not to The coffins of the royal ancestors in the Ancestral Temple cannot be held down."
Qian Qiyue rarely found Fu Laiqing's words pleasant, and she also sneered: "As a girl, I know what it means to be a gentleman. A promise is as important as a thousand pieces, but your Majesty treats the promise as bullshit. I think Governor Xiao simply rebelled." Go to the court, so as not to have an unknown death..."
"Ayue!"
Qian Qingran drank lightly.
Qian Qiyue sneered: "Did I say something wrong? He behaves like an emperor, but behaves like a villain, and is completely shameless when he goes back on his word."
"My father and Duke Cao tried to dissuade them, but he regarded everyone as a traitor. Even the generals who had made great achievements for the Wei Dynasty were not spared. When he wanted to kill them just now, did he remember? There is no sense of friendship between monarch and minister, but remember the contribution these people have made for the Wei Dynasty."
"Only a ghost can believe his oath!"
Qian Qingran's face looked a little bad, but she also hated Emperor An. On the other hand, Tang Ning stretched out her hand to hold Qian Qiyue: "Sister Ah Yue."
Qian Qiyue snorted coldly, her disdain visible to everyone.
Tang Ning stood next to Xiao Yan and looked up at Emperor An: "Your Majesty did not hesitate to wash the court with blood in order to kill my brother. He didn't even care about the lives of Duke Cao and General Yin. The lives of all the courtiers and royal family members in the palace did not matter. It’s not as selfish as yours. If that’s the case, why do you need to act so coquettishly now?”
Emperor An's fingers trembled: "I...I was confused for a moment..."
"Confused?"
Cao Dejiang said coldly: "You are so confused that you have forgotten what Jun Wu Xiyan is, and you are so confused that you want to wash the court with blood to calm down what happened today?"
"You killed the censor, captured the officials, and massacred the courtiers, and wanted to keep all the civil servants and generals of the Wei Dynasty in this hall. I think your Majesty is not confused, but you have never wanted to thoroughly investigate the events of the past twenty years. You are here What are you afraid of? And why do you have to put Xiao Yan to death?"
After experiencing what happened before, General Yin was extremely disappointed with Emperor An. His robes were stained with blood, and most of the generals around him were injured.
Emperor An really wanted to keep all of them in Zichen Palace just now.
General Yin's face was full of frost: "I have experienced three dynasties and witnessed the grand event of Taizu's creation of Longting Guard. Longting Guard is not the work of one person. All the generals were die loyal to the royal family in the palace. Even if the Shang family is the leader, they I will never betray the royal family.”
"If Your Majesty is innocent, why should you be afraid of Shang Qin coming to the capital? Where has the confidence gone to order people to be killed without mercy?"
An Di's face became paler and paler, and the increasingly louder drums outside made him panic.
"Oh no, Long Tingwei has arrived in front of the palace gate!"
The screams outside made An Di unable to hold his balance any longer.
"Xiao Yan!" He looked trembling: "I know I was wrong. I was wrong to break the promise. Don't let Long Tingwei enter the palace..."
Seeing that Xiao Yan was unmoved, he turned to look at Old General Yin.
"Old General Yin, the Longting Guards are not the same people as before. I can't drive them. Xiao Yan and Hu Moupi can't control the people Taizu left behind. They didn't enter the palace because of old things from twenty years ago. Shang Qin didn't listen to the emperor earlier. Life."
"I shouldn't go back on my word, but people from the Longting Guard must not enter the palace, otherwise the world will really be in chaos!"
General Yin looked at Emperor An, who was completely confused and confused, and his face became calm little by little.
Longtingwei was created by Taizu himself, and he selected the people who were most loyal to the royal family. Even if the Shang family did not obey the emperor's orders, it was impossible for everyone in the other generals to follow the orders and disobey the order. But Emperor An was so afraid, He also bluntly said that he could not drive them, and even said that the people of Long Tingwei would bring chaos to the world.
General Yin's heart was tense. Why was Emperor An so sure? unless……
He came to the throne in a wrong way!
What General Yin could think of, others could naturally think of, and all the officials and generals were shocked.
