499 The heavens have changed! King Chu and King Wu are loyal!

There was indeed a reason why the Imperial envoy of the Empire of Great Yan, Prince Lian, was in such a hurry. He wanted to find a way to establish the established facts in a short period of time, and the uncooked rice would be cooked.

In his opinion, once Wu Wang reached a complete compromise, the news of Shen Lang’s victory would not be able to cause any waves.

Once he led the Imperial envoy Army into the Wu Palace and captured Wu Zhi, the dignity of the Wu King would be completely destroyed. Whether it was the people of Wu country or the Army, he would no longer be able to establish His Majesty as a King. That was why Prince Lian of the Imperial Kingdom took the risk.

“Enter, enter, enter!”

Under Prince Lian’s lead, thousands of Great Yan Empire’s Warriors charged into the palace.

As expected, there was no resistance along the way. This was the Imperial envoy of the Empire, and without King Wu’s decree, who would dare to resist?

Just like this, the three thousand aggressive Imperial envoy Warriors passed through layers of Palace seals and arrived in front of Dachong Hall.

Dachong Hall was the central hall of the Wu Kingdom’s Palace. Every Grand Court Assembly would be held here. At this time, Prince Lian had received a secret report that Wu Wang and Wu Zhi were here.

Dachong Hall had a huge square and 90 steps. There were also Palace walls and gates outside.

“Break the door.” The Lian Prince shouted.

Immediately, two giant-like Empire Warriors stepped forward and broke through the palace gate. Three thousand Great Yan Empire Warriors rushed in like a tide.

However, after entering, everyone was stunned. A total of 10000 Wu state’s Imperial Guards stood in the square, neatly arranged.

At the front, a few thousand Warriors erected a huge shield wall, while at the back, a few thousand Imperial Guards nocked their arrows and aimed at the Warriors of the great Yan Empire who were charging in.

Prince Lian’s expression changed. He walked over and whispered,”Wu Wang, what are you doing? Are you trying to go against the center of the Empire? Are you trying to go against his Majesty? For a mere Wu Zhi, you’re going to use force to resist arrest?”

“Prince Lian, do you think I’m going to use force to resist arrest?” Hahahaha!”

“Wuzhi, Wuzhi, are you there?” Prince Lian asked coldly. Are you going to trap the King of Wu in a disloyal and unfilial place just for your life? What kind of loyal Minister are you?”

His intention was clear. He wanted Wu Zhi to turn himself in, or commit suicide in public. This would prevent Wu Wang from directly opposing the Empire.

“Prince Lian, I welcome you as a guest, but you shouldn’t interfere too much in the internal affairs of Wu country,” King Wu said slowly. Also, what right does the Army of the great Yan Empire have to enter my Palace? All Imperial Guards, get ready!”

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

A few token arrows were shot into the sky and exploded.

Then, one army after another surged in like a tide, completely surrounding the Imperial envoy’s Army.

“Prince Lian, please ask your Army to put down their weapons and surrender. Otherwise, we will kill them without mercy.” Wu Wang said sternly.

“King Wu, you … Are you trying to rebel?” Prince Lian of the great Yan Empire trembled as he asked.

Wu Wang nodded and said,”that’s right, I’m going to rebel.” Emperor Shen lang is right. If you don’t explode in silence, you will die in silence.”

“You know?” the Lian Prince’s expression changed drastically.

Wu Wang sneered. paper can’t cover fire. In the final battle in tianyue city, His Majesty Chen Lang won all the battles. The sky-Sea Pavilion’s blood soul Army was completely annihilated.

Prince Lian said, ” however, everyone knows that Shen Lang’s victory is short-lived. His strength can not be compared to the Empire of Great Yan. Are you really going to be so foolish and die with him? ”

Wu Wang nodded. it doesn’t matter. There’s nothing bad about dying in a spectacular manner.

“All soldiers of the Empire of Great Yan, lay down your weapons and surrender. Otherwise, we will kill you without mercy!” Wu Wang roared.

five, four, three, two, one.

“Get ready, kill!” Wu Wang roared.

“Stop!” Prince Lian raised his hands and shouted, ” “Stop! All Imperial Guards, put down your weapons! Put down your weapons!”

Following the order of the Imperial Lian Prince, the 3000 Imperial Guards all put down their weapons.

“Squat down!”

Wu Wang ordered.

The three thousand Imperial Guards of the great Yan Empire squatted on the ground and were all captured a moment later.

“King Wu, you’ve already shown off your might. We can start the negotiations now, right?” Prince Lian said.

“Negotiation? I’m sorry, there’s no more negotiations.” Wu Wang glanced at him indifferently.

“All the Imperial Guards, move out and head to the cabinet to suppress the rebellion,” Wu Wang said loudly.

With Wu Wang’s order, more than 10000 Imperial Guards left the palace and headed for the inner Pavilion.

Whether it was Wu State or Yue State, the minister’s desk and the cabinet were all located in the palace. After all, it was convenient to work in this way. However, last year, Zhang Danfeng led the entire cabinet out of the palace and moved into the Summer Palace in the West, deer villa. This also caused a great uproar at that time. It meant that the cabinet had already separated from the King of Wu and formed its own system.

Moreover, since then, the core of Wu country’s internal affairs had been in deer villa, not the palace.

Deer villa was about 19 miles away from the palace. The wide Vermilion Bird Avenue in the middle connected the two core areas of the capital.

At that moment, Wu Wang led over 10000 Imperial Guards and headed toward deer villa in a grandiose manner.

In that instant, everyone was stunned.

Countless citizens trembled in fear. What, what was the king trying to do? Was he going to start a war in the capital?

All the scholars ran around telling each other, feeling as if the world had changed. While the ordinary people were shocked, they also felt a surge of excitement. After all, ordinary people just liked to watch a show.

However, there was another group of people whose blood was boiling. This was the Wu state’s Army. In the past two to three years, Wu Wang had been suppressed badly, and so had the Wu Army.

In the beginning, the Empire of Great Yan crossed the border of the Wu country in the name of eliminating Shen lang. However, more than a year had passed, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers were stationed in the Wu country. They only left half a year ago.

During this time, these civil officials kept reaching into the Army. The status of civil officials was getting higher and higher, while the status of military generals was getting lower and lower. Until now, most of the logistics of the Wu Army had been taken away by the cabinet. The Bureau of Military Affairs still held the power to promote generals and mobilize the Army, but the distribution of military pay and food was all handed over to the Ministry of War, which was completely under the system of the cabinet. This was equivalent to the Army being strangled by the throat.

Do you still remember the great Yan Empire lending Wu country a huge amount of military provisions? It was the time when King Wu planned to use it for the war between the four countries. From that time on, the great Yan Empire began to meddle with the logistics of Wu country’s Army. Once the Civil officials were in power, they would definitely suppress the military generals. Just like in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the military generals became the servants of the Civil officials. Even the fourth-grade generals had to bow in front of the seventh-grade civil officials.

Furthermore, in order to take down Wu Zhi, how many military generals did the cabinet target? This time, more than 100 military generals were arrested. Although they were all middle-and low-level generals, they had already made the Wu Army fall into a violent uneasiness.

At this moment, Wu Wang led the Imperial Guards and charged into the inner Pavilion with a murderous aura. Along the way, countless Warriors joined in.

“Your Majesty.”

“This general requests to join the battle.”

One army after another joined in, and by the time they were halfway there, the number of soldiers behind Wu Wang had already exceeded thirty thousand.

Prince Lian of the great Yan Empire chased after King Wu with all his might on his horse. He said in a trembling voice, ” “Wu Wang, think about the consequences. Think about your Wu family’s hundreds of years of history!”

Wu Wang did not say anything.

“How about this?” Prince Lian asked. Wu Zhi will not be arrested, and Wang qingan will change his statement. The land acquisition and murder case this time have nothing to do with Sir Wu Zhi.”

Wu Wang still did not say a word, and his killing intent rushed to the inner Pavilion.

“How about this, Wu Wang?” the Lian Prince asked, trembling. The chief of the Supreme Court will step down and be beheaded in public. The cabinet will publicly admit their mistakes and prove the innocence of the central secret envoy Wu Zhi.”

Wu Wang still did not reply.

Very quickly, the Army behind Wu Wang expanded to 50000 and surrounded deer villa, where the inner Pavilion was located.

“Ready!” Wu Zhi shouted.

Prince Lian trembled and said, ” King Wu, the last condition is that the cabinet Prime Minister Zhang Danfeng steps down. You can choose an official to be the new Prime Minister. He must first be loyal to the Wu country.

Wu Wang was stunned. He did not expect the Empire of Great Yan to be willing to compromise.

“Prince Lian, isn’t the Yan capital looking forward to me and King Chu openly opposing the great Yan Empire, so that the Empire can send millions of soldiers to destroy Wu, Yue, and Chu, and become the Empire of Great Yan’s province?” Wu Wang sneered.

“It’s for the best if things don’t develop to this stage,” Prince Lian said. If you can solve it through political means, try not to use military means.”

“The Empire of Great Yan is not willing to use the secret army of the Supreme powers, but the Empire of Great Yan’s own secret army has not been fully formed yet?” Wu Wang asked.

Prince Lian sneered. King Wu, don’t speculate too much. I’ve already given the final ground line. Zhang Danfeng will step down and the cabinet will be reorganized. King Wu, this cabinet is the cabinet of Wu country, but it is also under the cabinet of the great Yan Empire. Many of the officials were sent by the cabinet of the Yan capital. Once you attack the cabinet, there will be no turning back.”

“I’ve never thought of turning back,” Wu Wang said.

“Fight!” Then, Wu Wang gave the order.

Tens of thousands of soldiers swarmed into deer villa like a tide.

A moment later, ghostly wails and wolf howls could be heard from inside.

The inner Pavilion had its own soldiers, but there were only a few thousand of them. All this while, Wu Wang had been enduring the humiliation, and the cabinet felt that with the protection of the great Yan Empire, there was no need to worry.

He didn’t expect Wu Wang to be so decisive and send an Army to wipe out the entire cabinet.

In less than two hours, the battle inside had ended. There were thousands of Cabinet officials and soldiers, but most of them had become corpses. Within the temporary residence in deer villa, blood and corpses were everywhere.

A moment later, hundreds of senior cabinet officials were all caught.

“Your Majesty, should we put him in the Supreme Court prison or the black water station prison?” Wu You asked.

Wu Wang shook his head. there’s no need. Just escort him to the execution ground.

As soon as he said this, hundreds of Cabinet officials trembled. They couldn’t believe their ears. Was Wu Wang crazy? This was crazy.

………………

A few hours later!

The square in front of the Royal Palace of Wu State was crowded with people. More than 100000 people had come to watch.

Shocking changes ah, the king actually wiped out the entire cabinet. Suddenly, the entire Wu state’s people’s mood was complicated.

Almost all the people of Yue stood on Shen Lang’s side, and the people of Wu country were more or less on Jiang Li’s side as he had a great reputation.

However, at the same time, the people of Wu country did not resist the great Yan Empire. Because they were neighbors, the great Yan Empire had infiltrated the Wu country too deeply. The entire group of civil officials controlled the public opinion and led the Wu country to support the great Yan Empire.

However, the people of Wu State were not completely emotionless towards King Wu. After all, they had been loyal to King Wu for hundreds of years.

The Prime Minister of Wu State, Zhang Danfeng, was still in a daze. Was this young king Wu so crazy? Did he just walk to the end of the road so suddenly? Without any hesitation?

It was an unspoken rule in all the countries in the world that a doctor could not punish someone. Therefore, even though Zhang Danfeng had always been against the King of Wu, he had never thought that his life would be in danger.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don’t let your hot blood get to your head. Wu country’s hundred year foundation can not be destroyed in your hands.” Zhang Danfeng kowtowed desperately to Wu Wang and said, ” “Your Majesty, everything I’ve done is for the sake of the Wu country and the safety of the Wu royal family.”

“You don’t have to say anything, don’t say anything,” Wu Wang said indifferently.

“Kill!”

The young Wu Wang’s shout was not heroic at all. It was clearly filled with fatigue.

“Ho, ho, ho, ho Ho Ho.”

Hundreds of Cabinet officials were beheaded. More than 100000 people felt their blood run cold. These high and mighty figures were suddenly killed?

“Kill!”

With another swing of his hand, more than a hundred heads fell to the ground.

This time, the officials of the cabinet of Wu State were so scared that they peed their pants. They desperately kowtowed and shouted, ” “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I want to report and expose you, I want to report and expose you.”

The official of the Supreme Court kneeled out and shouted,”The heinous case of Wang Qing ‘an snatching the Mulberry fields and burying scholar Lin’s entire family alive is fake, fake. The murderer is not Wang Qing ‘an, and it has nothing to do with uncle Wu Zhi. Everything was done by the embroidery division.”

The embroidery division was an Intelligence Agency that had just been established for one and a half years and was under the leadership of the cabinet of Wu State. It was used to compete with the black water platform.

from burying scholar Lin’s entire family alive to creating the list of names for Wu Zhi’s family, it was all done by the embroidery division. They were directly under the orders of Prime Minister Zhang Danfeng.

everything we did was to slander Imperial envoy Wuzhi. It was all done by Prime Minister Zhang Danfeng.

As soon as he said this, the crowd went into an uproar and their faces turned pale. Very few people knew of this secret. The Chief Justice was a key figure in this case, so he naturally knew it very well.

Wu Wang waved his hand, and the official of the Supreme Court was immediately taken away from the execution ground, as if he didn’t need to die.

Immediately, more and more officials knelt down and kowtowed, ” “Your Majesty, I also want to report and expose you. I also want to report and expose you.”

The entire execution ground was like a stage for an ugly drama. They were loyal to the Empire of Great Yan, but now that they couldn’t even keep their lives, what else could they do?

“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

Another army entered the execution ground, escorting hundreds of people, all of whom were the family members of Prime Minister Zhang Danfeng.

Then, more and more people were escorted to the execution ground. The family members of all the Civil officials above the fourth rank were all brought to the execution ground.

Thousands of people knelt down in an orderly manner.

“Your Majesty, I want to make a report, I want to make a report ah Yingluo!”

However, Wu Wang still acted as if he didn’t hear anything and gave the order numbly.

“Kill!”

“Swish, swish, swish Swish Swish!”

The hundreds of executioners raised their hands and swung their blades.

Rows of heads fell to the ground.

The killing sent shivers down everyone’s spine. Was his Majesty the King of Wu crazy? Was he going to kill all the Civil officials? Who would manage the internal affairs then?

“Your Majesty, I must expose the conspiracy of the Empire of Yan.”

“It was the Empire of Yan who ordered us to create these cases. It was the people from the Empire of Yan’s Blackwater station who guided us to do these cases.”

“It was the Empire of Great Yan who incited us to carry out the land annexation. The Empire of Great Yan had bribed the civil and military officials of Wu State.”

Wang Qing ‘an was threatened and bribed by the Empire of Great Yan. As long as he tries to curry favor with Sir Wu Zhi, his sons can become the Empire of Great Yan’s Jinshi. Otherwise, their entire clan will be exterminated.

What happened next was the real chaos. In order to survive, these people desperately reported and exposed the conspiracy. They talked about how big the conspiracy was. A small part of it was true, but most of it was just speculation.

This group of people was actually very smart. They knew what Wu Wang wanted, so they did not hesitate to use their last madness in exchange for their own lives.

The Prime Minister of the cabinet, Zhang Danfeng, trembled as if he wanted to say something, but he could not.

He wasn’t like Zhu Hong, so in order to live, in order to protect the lives of his entire family, he also wanted to report this matter. Even though the great Yan Empire would attack soon, and those who reported the Empire would die, at least they did not have to die now.

But he didn’t dare to, because his most outstanding sons were all in the Yan capital. Even if he exposed the great Yan Empire, he would still die. King Wu needed a head of sufficient weight to express his break with the great Yan Empire.

Zhang Danfeng could not help but look at Wu Wang. His heart trembled as he said, ” Your Majesty Wu Wang, you’re awesome. You’re indeed a young man. You’re really ruthless!

“Swish!”

There was another wave of hand and knife strikes, and row after row of cabinet ministers were beheaded.

Finally, it was Prime Minister Zhang Danfeng’s turn. He thought Wu Wang would say something, but he didn’t.

He waved his hand.

The executioner, ghost head blade, suddenly chopped down. The Prime Minister of the cabinet, Zhang Danfeng, along with his entire clan, was completely killed.

When the Imperial envoy of the Empire of Great Yan, Prince Lian, saw this, he sneered after recovering from his shock.

“Hahahaha.”

“Wu Wang, did you enjoy your killing?”

Wu Wang didn’t answer, but said indifferently, ” “From today onwards, Wu country will no longer obey any decree of the great Yan Empire. The Wu country will no longer recognize the Great Yan Dynasty as the Orthodox Eastern Empire!”

Chen Lang’s tianyue city battle has been won. With less than 20000 people, he defeated 500000 people. The sky-Sea Pavilion’s 20000 blood soul Army has been completely annihilated.

“Wu You, listen to my order!”

Immediately, Wu You of the Blackwater station knelt down.

I have taken you in as my sister and conferred you the title of Princess an you. Please represent me as a diplomatic envoy to raging tide city and ask His Majesty Shen lang, the Emperor of great Qian, if I, Wu Qi, want to be loyal to the great Qian dynasty and serve him as my master, will he accept me? ”

As soon as he said this, the hundreds of thousands of people present were in an uproar.

So sudden?

The Wu country betrayed the Great Yan Dynasty just like that and wanted to be loyal to Shen Lang’s great gan dynasty? However, where was the great Qian dynasty?

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Wu You knelt down and kowtowed.

Wu You didn’t waste any time and brought a few thousand Warriors to the South as a diplomatic mission to raging tide city.

……………………

In the Royal Palace of Chu State!

The new king Chu and the Empress Dowager were playing chess.

In terms of the situation in the Imperial court, the King of Chu was slightly better than the King of Wu, because he had a much stronger grasp of the state affairs. Even the reshuffled cabinet did not completely obey the Prime Minister’s orders. There were still many civil officials who were loyal to King Chu. After all, the Chu country did not share a border with the great Yan Empire, and the two generations of King Chu had great prestige in the hearts of his subjects.

However, King Chu’s situation was even more dangerous than King Wu’s. Because he was more outstanding, he was more feared by the Yan capital.

In the Wu State, after the cabinet, headed by Zhang Danfeng, seized the internal power, they began to meddle with the military power. They did not hesitate to set off a major case to oust the central secret envoy, Wu Zhi, from his position.

In Chu country, the great Yan Empire’s forces directly targeted the King of Chu. The crime was very simple-he had caused chaos in the harem and before his corpse had even turned cold, he had already harmed his mother, committing a grave crime of human ethics.

Of course, this was a crime made up by zixu, but it was not completely out of thin air. This was because many people had seen a concubine of the old king of Chu run out of the new Chu Royal Palace in disheveled clothes. Not long after, she had hung herself. It was another plot of life and death. Stupa mountain had planted more than one woman in the Royal Palace of Chu State. At the critical moment, they would detonate them one by one.

Consort Yan had caused the death of the old king Chu, and this consort Lian had poured a basin of unwashed dirty water on the head of the new king Chu.

Following that, the wife of the old king of Chu, the Empress Dowager of Chu, was under immense pressure. Because he was the birth mother of the new king Chu. As long as he came forward to accuse the new king Chu of defiling his mother, he would never be able to clear his name.

The Empress Dowager of Chu had once surrendered to Shen lang and suffered countless humiliations. Therefore, some people thought that she would definitely compromise.

In the end, she managed to hold on. Because of this, most of her clansmen had died, and she didn’t have long to live. Stupa mountain and Ying Wuming had used their deaths to force him to compromise and admit that the new king Chu had violated his mother.

He would either publicly accuse Lord Chu of the crime or die!

At this moment, the mother and son were playing chess.

Mother, I will go and beg Emperor Shen lang. He should be able to cure you. King Chu trembled and was reluctant to place the last piece for a long time. Once he did, the game would be over.

Empress Dowager Chu shook her head. there’s no need. Ning yuanxian had knelt down and compromised before. But now, he stood up and paid the price of almost his life. Then I want to stand up too, my ending is pretty good, pretty good Yingluo.”

At this time, Empress Dowager Chu looked even younger, and she had a beauty that was completely out of line with her age.

I was once humiliated and surrendered to Shen lang. I was even paraded on the streets. I should have killed myself, but I couldn’t do it.

now that I’m dead, I’d rather die than submit in order to protect my son. I should be able to save some of my reputation.

The new king Chu could no longer control himself. He knelt on the ground and cried.

“My son, place your stone.” “Mother really can’t hold on any longer,” Empress Dowager Chu said with a trembling voice.

Her face became more and more enchanting, and the light in her eyes became more and more strange.

“Hou, hou bi an!” The new king Chu roared like a beast.

Empire of Great Yan, stupa mountain, Ying Guang, Ying Wuming, Qianqian. he kept repeating these names.

Hatred, a bone-deep hatred.

You killed Father, and now you used despicable means to kill mother.

Finally, Lord Chu raised his head and placed the last chess piece on the board. The game was over, and he had won.

Empress Dowager Chu said,”my son, you may leave.” The next scene will be very ugly and terrifying.”

Lord Chu kowtowed to the Empress Dowager with all his might. He was bleeding as he said, ” “Mother, your son swears that I will definitely take revenge for father, I will definitely take revenge for mother.”

“Good, good Zhenzhen!” The Empress Dowager waved her hand and said, ” “Let’s go, my time is up.”

Lord Chu retreated and closed the door.

Empress Dowager Chu looked at herself in the mirror. She was getting more and more beautiful, younger and younger.

In the end, it was simply impossible to look at her directly. Her eyes were already as beautiful as fire.

In the next moment, her beautiful body split open inch by inch, and countless bugs rushed out of her body.

Endless pain. Even if he were to die, he would have to endure this hellish torture.

Empress Dowager Chu didn’t want to cry out in pain, but she couldn’t help it.

“Ah!!!!!!!!”

Her screams became more and more shrill and terrifying.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Her body suddenly exploded and she died.

At the same time.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!” The entire Palace was ablaze.

The Empress Dowager’s body, as well as the countless terrifying poisonous insects that were gushing out of her body, were all burned into charcoal.

Lord Chu looked at the raging fire from outside and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. His entire expression became cold.

Grief, extreme grief? Come to your heart’s content, come like a landslide or tsunami.

However, he had to get there as soon as possible.

Great Yan Empire, Ying Guang, Ying Wuming, stupa mountain bi an, ” he mumbled continuously.

At this moment, the crown prince’s Grand Tutor, li xuanqi, entered and bowed. “Your Majesty, it has ended.”

“You’re done?” Lord Chu asked.

“I’m done,” Li Xuan said.

Lord Chu opened his arms and a few eunuchs immediately came forward to help him put on a new crown and a new Royal robe.

Lord Chu slowly walked out and pushed open the palace gates.

The smell of blood hit him in the face.

Outside the palace, the ground was covered with corpses. There were civil officials, military generals, and even his two younger brothers. There were also the previous King Chu’s mother concubines. To sum it up, they were all traitors.

Tens of thousands of rebels were killed by the King of Chu, and those who had infiltrated the territory of Chu from the great Yan Empire were almost uprooted.

Corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like a river.

Tens of thousands of soldiers stood in formation, their bodies covered in blood. When they saw King Chu walk out of the palace gates, they immediately knelt down in neat rows.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”

King Chu came to the entrance of the palace and looked at the flag in front of him. This was the flag of the Great Yan Dynasty, and it fluttered high in the air.

King Chu unsheathed his sword and cut it in half, causing the flag of the Great Yan Dynasty to fall.

“Dear soldiers and officials, from today onwards, my Chu country is rebelling!”

“The Chu country will no longer be loyal to the great Yan Empire!”

“My Chu country is willing to acknowledge the great Qian dynasty as the legitimate ruler of the East!”

Then, King Chu knelt down towards the east and kowtowed, ” greetings, Your Majesty Shen lang. Long live the monarch of great Qian, long live, long live!
