Chapter 929 Bloody Palace Wall (18)

Since it was judged that Xihua Gate was more likely, Zhu Ruodeng immediately made arrangements to find places to hide troops in advance near Xihua Gate and Zuoye Gate in the south, lurking elite troops and hoarding a large amount of military supplies. The reason why

They also chose Zuoye Gate because there were not many defenders here, so they used this gate as the second breakthrough point to seize the palace.

Everything is ready, all that is needed is the east wind. The east wind from King Ji has not yet arrived, but the east wind from the crown prince blows in the court hall first.

On the morning of November 9th, all civil and military officials gathered outside Fengtian Gate, waiting for the arrival of the Imperial Gate. Sun Jinding, Su Guansheng, Zheng Feng, Liu Wenxiu and other important civil and military officials silently stared at the throne in Fengtian Hall, meditating.

Wait.

As soon as they went to court, Sun Jinding and other elders felt that the atmosphere was unusual. There were many more guards in the palace today, and they were all fully armed. It didn't look like they were going to court, but like they were going to fight. The cunning old ministers immediately started to act.

Shut up the gourd and keep silent.

The big shot arrived belatedly. Zhu Ruoji, the supervisor, was wearing a red dragon robe, a Yishan crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist, and deerskin boots, and slowly ascended the throne.

After the ceremony officer conducted some operations and guided the civil and military officials to salute, Zhu Ruoji was silent for a moment, and the first words he spoke shocked the courtiers, "My dear sirs, my father is seriously ill and has no choice but to oversee the country. Do you really support me?"



Chief Assistant Guan Shouzhen was the first to step forward and said loudly: "His Royal Highness is the crown prince of the country, and he is responsible for overseeing the country. He is supported wholeheartedly by his ministers and has no doubts!"

"Your Highness is as bright as the bright moon, and the ministers are as dim as the stars. The ministers support the prison country, just like the stars support the moon. They are loyal and unswerving. Please give your Majesty a lesson." Gu Yi, a scholar of Wuying Palace, also expressed his loyalty.

Sun Jinding, Su Guansheng, Zheng Feng, Yu Chaoxiang, Jin Shenghuan, Liu Wenxiu and other important ministers looked at each other. At this time, no matter whether they are willing or unwilling, they must express their stance!

"I will support the supervision of the country without any second thoughts." In the Fengtian Hall, a loud voice expressed loyalty.

"Well," Zhu Ruoji slowed down and asked, "King Ji, Mr. Chen Ge, Xiao Qi, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Zhang Cheng, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Chen Shou, the right minister of the Ministry of War, are they here?"

"Reporting to the prison country, they all said that the illness has not yet arrived," Guo Fengqi, the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, reported.

"Oh, they are all sick. How long have they been sick?"

"I've been sick for a month."

"Humph, if you don't get sick early, you won't get sick later. You just have to oversee the country, so they get sick? And they all got sick on the same day. What a coincidence in the world?"

Zhu Ruoji sneered again and again and continued to ask: "Where is Yang Wei, associate bachelor of the Royal Army Academy?"

"I report to the prison country that I have been ill for a month!"

"Where is Chen Gongyin, a doctor in the Qing Li Division of the Ministry of War's arsenal?"

"I report to the prison country that I have been ill for a month!"

"Where is Hu Jing, the doctor of the Camp and Maintenance Department of the Ministry of Industry, Mai Erxuan, the doctor of the Dushui Department, and Ou Huaihao, the doctor of the Tuntian Department?"

"I have reported to the prison country that I have been ill for a month!"

"Hahaha!" Zhu Ruoji laughed angrily, "Listen, sir, these people all claimed to be sick on the same day and have not come to see me yet. I see, they are not sick, but are discussing important matters at home! Father!

He is seriously ill, and some sluts are eager to plot rebellion for the sake of wealth and honor. This is tolerable, but what is intolerable! Today is the time to eliminate the traitors!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an instant silence in the main hall. Some ministers who usually had contact with King Ji were so shocked that their faces turned pale and they were dripping with cold sweat.

Seeing that no one spoke, Zhu Ruoji was satisfied. The atmosphere for eradicating King Ji's gangsters had been successfully created. The next step was to kill people to establish his authority. He said coldly: "Is Minister Sheng Jing of the Hanlin Academy and Jiang Shishao, Secretary of the Imperial Academy here?"
Guo Fengqian looked at the sign-in book and said: "To the prison country, these two people are here."

"Well, the minister of Xuanhanlin Academy is very respectful, and the director of the Imperial College, Jiang Shishao, comes forward." The voice on the throne was not angry but powerful.

Sheng Jing and Jiang Shishao were both confidants of the King of Ji, and were sent to the court to spy on the news. They were not high-ranking officials, only sixth-rank officials. They were not qualified to enter the Fengtian Palace and could only stay outside the Fengtian Gate.

"Significant respect, Jiang Shishao!"

"Significant respect, Jiang Shishao!"

"Significant respect, Jiang Shishao!"

The sergeant on duty shouted loudly, monitored, and urged the two of them to enter the palace. Sheng Jing and Jiang Shishao knew something was wrong and looked at each other.

Sheng Jing suddenly laughed loudly and said to Jiang Shishao: "Brother Jiang Xian, it seems that we are going to follow in the footsteps of Chen Yanxia!"

Jiang Shishao smiled and said: "It is an honor for you and me to follow in Chen Yanxia's footsteps, so why should we be afraid?"

These two people, together with Chen Hu and Lu Shiyi, are collectively known as the "Four Gentlemen of Taicang". In order to realize the great ideal of establishing a free and equal world of great harmony, they regarded King Zhu Ruodeng of Hebei as a wise master who could protect them. Chen Hu did not hesitate to use counterintuitive tactics,

Shu asked for the emperor's grandson, which angered the old emperor and was executed in the city.

Chen Yanxia died a heroic death, which impressed Sheng Jing and Jiang Shishao and set them as an example. Today, it is time to die for their ideals!

The two of them walked into the main hall, but they saw the swordsmen and axemen on both sides were full of murderous intent. Without any fear, they stepped forward and saluted: "I will see you in charge of the country."

Zhu Ruoji was sitting on the dragon chair, looking down at the two of them, "Sheng Jing, Jiang Shishao, do you two know your guilt?"

Beautiful smiles bloomed on their faces, and they held their heads high and replied: "I don't know."

"You and your party are attached to the King of Hebei and have evil intentions, but you are still unwilling to admit your guilt?"

"I just respect the talent and character of His Highness King Ji, and out of gratitude, I am willing to do it for you. His Highness King Ji is loyal to the country, so what's wrong with it?" Sheng Jing shouted.

"It is true that His Royal Highness the King of Ji is committed to supporting the country, caring for the people, fulfilling the qualities of Yao and Shun, and the ministers and others have interacted with him in order to save the people of the world. There is nothing untoward." Jiang Shishao also firmly denied it.

"Nothing wrong?"

Zhu Ruoji sneered, "During October, you two visited Prince Ji's Mansion nine times at night; on November 2, 5, and 7, you visited Prince Ji's Mansion three times at night. What on earth are you doing so secretly at night?

Conspiracy? Why can't we discuss it openly and openly in the daytime? These days, the King of Ji is dispatching troops and generals and hoarding military supplies. What is it if it is not treason?"

"Jian Guo is the brother of His Royal Highness the King of Ji. He does not follow the principles of brotherhood, friendship, and brotherly respect. Instead, he has people spy on his own brother and frame him for rebellion. It's ridiculous! It's shameful! It's shameful!" Sheng Jing protested loudly.

"Zhu Ruoji, you imprisoned the Holy Father, forged edicts, and secretly imprisoned the country. This is the real rebellion! His Highness King Ji summoned us for discussion. He wanted to save his father and fulfill his filial piety. What is wrong?" Jiang Shishao also shouted.
The two of them knew that they would not be spared, so they cursed loudly. As expected of celebrities in the world, they cursed without using any curse words and kept talking!

Zhu Ruoji was so angry that his mouth was full of smoke. He whispered a word from between his teeth: "Come here, drag these two bold and rebellious ministers down and kill them!"

The swordsmen and axemen who had been prepared swarmed up like wolves and tigers, tied up the two people, and dragged them out. In the blink of an eye, two bloody human heads were presented.

As soon as the head was presented, all the ministers' faces turned earthy.

Zhu Ruoji said kindly: "Don't be alarmed, gentlemen. The only traitors who went to court today are the two of you, Jiang Shishao and Jiang Shishao. The rest are loyal and good. However, in order to prevent the news from leaking, please wait in the palace and not leave the court."

I have prepared tea soup and snacks, please feel free to wait.”

After saying that, Zhu Ruoji ordered Zhao Chengde, the eunuch in charge of the Royal Horse Supervisor, to lead five hundred guards to keep an eye on the ministers. He took Guan Shou Zhen and Gu Yi back to Duanben Palace to command and quell the chaos.
