Li Chen's words almost stripped Duan Jinjiang naked.
Indeed, after his son had an accident and he had to agree to Li Chen's condition of betraying Zhao Xuanji, he had already begun to plan a way out.
Duan Jinjiang, who has been serving as the Minister of the Ministry of War and the senior scholar of the Cabinet for so many years at the center of the imperial court, naturally has his own tricks that are unknown to others.
The Ministry of War is the most powerful department, second only to the Ministry of Personnel.
He has been able to control the Ministry of War for so many years. Even now, Zhao Xuanji cannot avoid him if he wants to control the Ministry of War. Whether it is the city's means or actual ability, Duan Jinjiang is top-notch.
So after he realized that he was bound to betray Zhao Xuanji, he realized that no matter whether the East Palace won or the cabinet won in the end, he would not end well.
Therefore, his plan was to arrange for the dead soldiers to enter the capital. If nothing could be done, then the best strategy would be to leave.
As for rebellion, he had never thought about it, nor did he dare to think about it.
No matter how chaotic the world is, it will still be the world of Qin and the Li family.
Does Zhao Xuanji have great power?
The first person under the emperor.
Even in the heyday of Emperor Daxing, many things had to be discussed with Zhao Xuanji.
By bypassing Zhao Xuanji, even the imperial power will be hindered.
But even so, Zhao Xuanji did not dare to rebel.
This is disrespectful to the world.
The Confucian world is all about loyalty, filial piety and etiquette. Loyalty is the first priority. The Qin Dynasty governed the country with filial piety and regarded the emperor as his father. To rebel is to kill the emperor and kill the father. Without the righteousness of the world, everyone will die.
So Duan Jinjiang thought very clearly.
He just wants to protect himself and his son.
To this end, he did not hesitate to use the most ruthless and despicable means.
But he didn't expect that Prince Li Chen would be more despicable and cruel than him.
His breathing became increasingly rapid and heavy, and Duan Jinjiang was in the midst of a battle between heaven and man.
He knew that if he didn't make friends with others, Li Chen would definitely do what he said.
But if he handed it over, then the last possibility that made Li Chen afraid was gone.
Just when Duan Jinjiang was making a difficult decision, Su Zhenting came in a hurry.
Li Chen raised his eyes and saw Su Zhenting hesitated to speak, and knew that something big had happened.
Su Zhenting knew what he was doing here. In order to avoid suspicion, he left early and never listened to another word of the content.
But now he has barged in. It is not a big deal. Su Zhenting cannot act like this.
"Say." Li Chen said.
Su Zhenting gritted his teeth, cupped his hands and said, "The Yulin Weinan Camp mutinied. They forged the war department's transfer order and the prince's handwriting, and entered the capital in the name of a change of defense. More than a thousand people went straight to the general to kill him!"
When these words came out, everyone's eyes widened.
Even Duan Jinjiang felt his scalp numb.
He seemed to see behind the scenes of all this, Zhao Shoufu, whom he was so familiar with, he was slightly holding his hands, and playing with the world's affairs with a calm expression.
For such a serious crime, no matter whether it is successful or not, all the blame will be placed on himself. However, Zhao Xuanji only fiddled with it twice to make the situation so complicated and dangerous.
He felt his chest was extremely depressed and blurted out: "This has nothing to do with me. Zhao Xuanji has always controlled Nan Daying!"
"nonsense!"
Li Chen raised his leg and kicked Duan Jinjiang in the stomach, and shouted coldly: "I know this matter, you know it, and Zhao Xuanji also knows it, but does everyone in the world know it!? Even if other people know it, they dare
Say it!?”
"Duan Jinjiang, since the founding of this dynasty three hundred years ago, the first crime of military mutiny and rebellion is on you!"
