"Queen Mother, please!" Lu Tianxiong slowly drew out his long sword, with an expression of arrogance and contempt.
At the same time as the words fell, the long sword slashed out.
In the sky, a flash of lightning flashed, thunder roared and strong winds blew, as if a storm was coming.
The same sword glowed like waves, and its vigor was like waves, but Wu Tianxiong's strength was obviously stronger than Wu Zifeng's by more than one level. As the long sword was cut out, a twisted hole appeared in the air in front of him, as if the space was torn apart. Amidst the screaming sound, the powerful force formed a hurricane and swept towards Lu Nianxin.
Lu Nianxin frowned slightly, shouted loudly, and slashed out with the long knife.
The loud sound of "choke" was like thunder, and a burst of energy exploded, and the imperial garden, which was already blustery, flew sand and rocks. Amidst the muffled groans, Wu Tianxiong and Lu Nianxin each took a few steps back.
In the first confrontation, the two were evenly divided, and neither of them took advantage, but on Wu Tianxiong's face, he could not see the slightest bit of frustration, on the contrary, he was even more motivated to fight.
Everyone knew the reason for this. Wu Tianxiong's strength was far from Lu Nianxin's opponent. If Lu Nianxin stayed still in the past, he would be shocked back again and again, or even severely injured. But at this time, the two were fighting evenly.
If the previous guesses about Lu Nianxin were still uncertain, then a confrontation undoubtedly proved their guesses.
Those courtiers who were loyal to the Yue clan's royal family all looked silent.
"The Empress Dowager is indeed very powerful, take another sword from me." Lu Tianxiong laughed loudly, and rushed forward with another sword.
"Cho, cho, cho..." In a short while, the two had exchanged dozens of moves.
In the beginning, the two were able to fight evenly, but later, Lu Nianxin gradually lost his strength, and was forced to retreat again and again under Lu Tianxiong's offensive, which was stronger than one sword, and his steps became messy.
Finally, another ray of light exploded suddenly, Lu Nianxin let out a muffled snort, and was sent flying high by Lu Tianxiong with a knife.
After the "bang" fell to the ground, Lu Nianxin backed up again and again, and finally slammed the long knife on the ground heavily, and finally stabilized his footsteps. However, his face was pale, his chest heaved sharply, and his whole body was soaked in sweat.
Defeated, the queen mother was actually defeated, the queen mother who turned the tide with her own strength and protected the Yue clan's royal family for decades, unexpectedly lost.
Seeing this scene, all the officials were bitter in their hearts, and their eyes were full of sadness.
"Hahahaha, it turns out that the Empress Dowager's strength is nothing more than that. After all, the Yue family is no match for the Wu family." Wu Tianxiong laughed wildly.
"What do you mean by that?" Lu Nianxin's face changed, and he asked sharply.
"With the wisdom of the Empress Dowager, it's impossible not to understand the meaning of this sentence." Wu Tianxiong stopped smiling, and said coldly, "The ancestors of the Yue family were only stronger than my ancestors of the Wu family, so we took the opportunity from him. Now that the Yue family is weak and has no right to occupy the throne, why not take advantage of the fact that all the officials are in the palace today, and surrender the throne to my Wu family, which is also a good talk."
"Dream! Do you think you can sit on the throne if you beat me?" Lu Nianxin said with a sneer.
"Being better than you, of course I can't sit on the throne, but it will allow me to sit more upright and more secure." Wu Tianxiong said and waved his hand vigorously.
The desolate trumpets sounded suddenly, and the drums were earth-shattering.
In the city, countless iron hooves stepped on the ground, making a muffled sound like thunder, and even deep in the palace, one could feel the vibration brought by the red charcoal cloud smoke beasts galloping past.
"City Guard!" Lu Nianxin exclaimed, then looked at an old general in armor among the ministers with a stern face, and said through gritted teeth, "Lin Weicheng, the Supreme Emperor treated you well in the past, and the Emperor also treated you well." You treat each other like an elder, yet you are collaborating with Wu Tianxiong to plot rebellion!"
It is no wonder that she is so angry. As the capital of a country, naturally there will not be too many troops stationed in the city. There are only city guards and imperial city guards in the city. After the emperor ascended the throne, he treated him even more politely, treating each other with the courtesy of an elder, but he did not expect that he would join forces with Wu Tianxiong in rebellion.
"The empress dowager, calm down. I went to Yue to build my country with force. In the past, millions of iron armors were even more powerful in the mainland, but now the Yue family is weak, and they even have to resume diplomatic relations with defeated generals like An Yun. It really insults my country's prestige. It looks like it's time to change the owner." Lin Weicheng was ashamed, but soon, he said plausibly.
"As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a virtuous minister chooses a master to do things. You are not up to date, and one generation is not as good as the next generation. How can you blame General Lin for abandoning the dark and turning to the bright." Wu Tianxiong gave Lin Weicheng a satisfied look, and laughed.
"Wu Tianxiong, you think that with the help of the city guards, you can win the throne. Don't forget, in addition to the city guards, there are 20,000 imperial guards in the city." Lu Nianxin took a deep breath and sneered Said.
Although there are only 20,000 imperial guards and 50,000 city guards, if there is a real battle, the 50,000 city guards will never be the opponent of the 20,000 well-equipped city guards with amazing combat power .
"The queen mother is right. There are 20,000 imperial city guards, but unfortunately, you can only command and move, and at most it is only 10,000. Ten thousand imperial city guards, facing another 10,000 imperial city guards, There are still 50,000 city guards, what do you think is the chance of winning?" Wu Tianxiong said calmly and confidently.
A shrill scream broke the silence in the palace, and noisy footsteps rushed towards the imperial garden.
Then, there was a roar and the crisp sound of swords intersecting.
Even though the distance was still far away, everyone could still smell the thick blood.
It was absolutely impossible for the city guards to attack the palace so quickly, so the only ones who did it would be the imperial city guards.
"Mo Yunhai, you also joined the rebel Wu Tianxiong?" Lu Nianxin suppressed his anger and looked at a strong middle-aged general.
His name is Mo Yunhai, he is the right commander of the imperial city guards, and Yue Fanchen is in charge of the left and right battalions of the imperial guards respectively.
"Forgive me, Queen Mother. General Lin and Prince Wu have already said what should be said before, so I won't say more, but with the ability to go beyond the family, it is really not suitable to occupy the throne. Between me, it is still As Lord Wu said, it would be a good thing to give up the throne and kindness to the Wu family, and save the common people from a war disaster." The middle-aged general persuaded with a smile.
"What General Mo said is very true. In ancient times, Emperor Ming, the holy emperor, was grateful for the suffering of the common people. He did not consider self-interest and let the emperor be the emperor of morality. Therefore, his name will last forever. Today, the Yue family follows the example of the ancients. It will also be famous through the ages and be admired by people forever."
Several other civil servants and military generals who had already shown their strangeness also spoke to persuade them.
This group of sanctimonious people didn't know how much they received from Wu Tianxiong, what kind of promise they got, they even said such a shameless thing. Mu Hanyan cursed secretly, but on the surface she remained calm.
Isn't this scene exactly what grandma wants to see? I believe she will give everyone a big surprise next time.
