Chapter 1527: Overnight

"Yes!" Fan Zhuan took the order and left. When he left the study, he saw many new faces, all of whom were monks sent to protect him.

The entire Gao Mansion seemed very quiet. Except for some servants who had to be called upon, everyone was strictly prohibited from leaving their rooms. Some were even gathered together for supervision.

Everyone in the Gao family was vaguely aware that something big was about to happen...

Da Sikong summoned him in the evening, and all officials did not dare to delay and rushed over one after another.

Before arriving, I didn't know that so many people were being summoned. It wasn't until I arrived that I realized that the Gao Mansion had become a court hall, like a court meeting.

Many people are muttering to themselves, is this good? Master Gao, aren't you afraid that His Majesty will be unhappy if you find out

No matter what, if the sky falls, there will be someone taller to hold it up. Now that we are here, we might as well listen to what is going on.

When everyone arrived, the officials who were crowded together waited for a while before Gao Jiancheng appeared. Everyone stood up and bowed their hands in greeting.

Lord Gao Jiancheng took his seat, stretched out his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and said majestically: "I guess a few days ago, many of you here have heard about the fact that the heads of the three major sects entered the palace and were not allowed to see His Majesty. .”

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, but no one said a word. Shang Yongzhong, who was sitting next to Gao Jicheng, had his eyes rolling around, muttering in his heart, wondering what this old fox was up to.

Gao Jiancheng added: "You must have heard that after Prince Yong destroyed Xiaoyue Pavilion, he openly accused Your Majesty of being the murderer of Prince Ning."

When this kind of thing happened, everyone became more and more afraid to say anything and kept quiet. Some people even looked at their noses and noses as if they didn't hear anything.

Gao Jiancheng looked around the crowd, and this time he said something truly shocking, "The three major factions have made a decision to abolish His Majesty and support Prince Yong!"

"Ah!" The scene was filled with shouts of shock, and some people even stood up in shock.

Among them was Shang Yongzhong, who was frightened and said: "Da Sikong, how could this happen?"

Gao Jiancheng raised his hand and pressed down, gesturing for those who stood up to sit down, and then continued: "The accident happened tonight. At this time, the palace has been controlled by the three major sects."

Fan Zhuan came with a servant, who was holding a tray with something covered with red cloth.

After the tray was unveiled, Fan Zhuan lifted off the red cloth and revealed a head. The face of the head was shown to everyone.

Someone exclaimed, "Gafu Order!"

Gao Jiancheng waved, and Fan Zhuan withdrew again with the tray, "Yes, it's the order of Gafu. Just before everyone arrived, the order of Gafu ventured out of the palace and came to my place. However, he was beheaded as soon as he went out. The intentions of the three major sects are obvious. If Your Majesty resists and disobeys, the lives of Your Majesty and the princes will be in danger. Your Majesty’s attitude is naturally resolute. However, we, the ministers, cannot sit back and watch His Majesty’s life being ignored. We should try our best to preserve it. , I just don’t know what you think?”

Everyone's eyes flashed, thinking about the whole situation, and then someone tried to ask, "I don't know how to protect it?"

Gao Jiancheng simply said, "If we order everyone in the Yan Kingdom to obey, the three major factions will naturally not have to embarrass your majesty."

Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.

Gao Jiancheng understood that if he did not express his position, no one would dare to express his position easily, so he said: "The three major factions have already agreed to this. If we can ensure the smooth transfer of the military and political power of Yan State, we will ensure your majesty's safety!"

What does it mean that the three major factions have already agreed to you? Everyone is not stupid, they have already reached an agreement with the three major factions!

Shang Yongzhong said in a deep voice: "Master Gao, we people have had enmity with Prince Yong. Once Prince Yong comes to power, there will be no way for us to survive!"

He was the one who was most afraid of him. When he suppressed the Wu Gongling rebellion, he personally captured Shang Chaozong and took him to the capital. This caused Shang Chaozong to suffer a lot and almost caused him to lose his life.

Gao Jiancheng: "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. In terms of offending me, I am even worse than your Majesty. Prince Yong has already promised me that everything will be forgotten. Your Majesty, I am not afraid, so what do you have to fear?"

Good guy! Everyone exclaimed in their hearts that this person in love has colluded with Shang Chaozong.

The next thing was one thing. Gao Jiancheng assured everyone that Shang Chaozong would never liquidate everyone, and promised that everything would remain the same as before. It was just that the master of the court had changed.

He is now the leader of the royalist faction, and he has been secretly operating for Nanzhou for many years. Many of the important officials in the court were brought up by him. These years of excluding dissidents were not in vain. Sure, his people naturally have no objections.

Gao Jiancheng made his meaning clear and his attitude clear. After getting everyone's response, he would make arrangements immediately.

What everyone has to do now is to guard against unknown channels in the palace to send orders to all parties, asking everyone to go back and immediately summon their own people from various places to stabilize the situation.

In other words, without their permission, people in various places should not obey the imperial decree to ensure that no trouble occurs in various places and to ensure the smooth transfer of imperial power.

After everyone dispersed, Shang Yongzhong sat dull in his seat. He knew clearly that these people in front of him controlled all the power in the Yan Kingdom. These people rebelled, and with the suppression of the monks from the three major sects, Shang Jianxiong could not overturn. There was a wave.

He was stupid there. He didn't even know when Gao Jiancheng came to him.

"Why is the prince so stunned?" Gao Jiancheng asked.

Shang Yongzhong came to his senses, looked up at him, and sighed: "Master Gao, His Majesty has so much respect and trust in you, but you have ruined His Majesty's court. How can His Majesty be embarrassed?"

Gao Jiancheng: "Your Majesty, the three major factions have all sided with Prince Yong, how long can we resist? If Your Majesty wants to fight Prince Yong to the death, do we have to be buried with him? Your Majesty, you have been silent just now, I only want you now In a word, should I choose His Majesty or Prince Yong?"

Shang Yongzhong looked back at the night outside the door and smiled bitterly, "If I don't agree, I'm afraid I will become the next Eunuch Ga as soon as I leave this door, right? Do I still have a choice?"

Gao Jiancheng: "It's good that the prince knows. You are the chief minister of the Yan State. The garrison in the capital knows that you are his majesty's confidant. If you come forward, the garrison will not be suspicious. The generals in the garrison in the gyeonggi are all his majesty's confidants. They need you now." Step forward to control the situation to prevent chaos in the capital."

Shang Yongzhong shook his head, "I am just a decoration. The military power of the capital is in the hands of your majesty. Once your majesty changes, the army will definitely follow the king. There is nothing I can control. It's useless even if I shout at the top of my voice."

Gao Jiancheng: "So I want you to come forward, adhere to His Majesty's will, and quickly replace the general of Gyeonggi on unfounded charges. Who should be replaced to stabilize the situation? No matter what the prince says, he is someone who has been involved in military affairs for many years. You should know it in your heart.”

Shang Yongzhong was stunned: "Falsely conveying His Majesty's will?"

Gao Jiancheng nodded, "Your Majesty's seal will be sent from the palace. We have the final say how you want to write the edict. Your Majesty, it's too late, it's too late. There are rumors, I'm afraid it's not good! After doing this, Prince Yong will definitely forget the past." . Your Majesty, Prince Yong is waiting in Nanzhou. Don’t miss this last opportunity!”

Shang Yongzhong really doesn't want to engage in this matter. It would be great to continue to maintain this situation, but the things in front of him are obvious. Without the support of the three major factions, the most His Majesty can do is to jump over the wall in a hurry, and it is difficult to change the final result.

So he stood up and nodded silently.

Gao Jiancheng immediately recruited a group of monks to come out and accompany Shang Yongzhong to leave to attend to matters.

That night, Shang Yongzhong became the busiest among the attendees.

With the emperor's "will", he first took control of the military aircraft center, and then rushed to various places in the Gyeonggi garrison. He rushed around all night, announcing the "will" to take down batches of generals on trumped-up charges, and replaced them with more reliable people, and The order was sent to the garrison to leave the capital to quell the rebellion. In any case, the troops should be transferred away from the capital area first.

Once this man made a decision, he acted ruthlessly. After taking away those generals who were accused of trumped-up charges, there was no detention and interrogation. They were directly taken to a deserted place and beheaded to prevent accidents.

Overnight, hundreds of heads of the generals stationed in Gyeonggi Province fell off.

Before taking action here, Zijin Cave had already mobilized troops within its sphere of influence and ordered them to rush to the capital.

All kinds of abnormalities in the mobilization of personnel were reported to the military aircraft department by military intelligence personnel, or secretly reported by intelligence department personnel.

However, the Military Aircraft Department has been controlled by Shang Yongzhong, and all abnormal information has been suppressed by Shang Yongzhong. It is useless to report it to the emperor. The emperor has been secretly placed under house arrest by the three major factions.

Over at the Intelligence Department, Tian Yu, the chief internal officer, was also secretly controlled and controlled by the emperor.

To put it bluntly, this is a large-scale coup involving internal and external affairs.

After handling the external affairs, the palace door was opened wide. King Shang Yongzhongqin came to the rescue and led a group of troops in his hands into the palace. With the emperor's decree, he controlled the imperial guards in the palace.

The people and horses were coming and going, and all the government offices in Beijing were not blind. They were all aware of it, but they were suppressed by the chief officials of each government office. They were not allowed to act rashly and just handled the affairs as usual.

That night, even some people noticed that the atmosphere in the capital was a bit strange.

After confirming that the situation inside and outside the capital was under control, the three major factions breathed a sigh of relief, and some people finally showed their fangs.

At dawn, inside the sealed imperial study.

Shang Jianxiong, who was sitting behind the imperial desk, stayed up all night. His eyes were bloodshot and he smashed a bunch of things on the ground.

Tian Yu, the general manager of the palace, was anxiously wandering in the imperial study, waiting for news.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and Zijindong elder Shen Chun led people into the sealed imperial study. Facing Shang Jianxiong, he said indifferently: "Your Majesty, give the order!"

boom! Shang Jianxiong jumped up and said angrily: "Kill me if you have the ability!"

I want him to issue an order to hand over power and make Shang Chaozong the regent. What a beautiful idea!

Shen Chun sneered and ignored Shang Jianxiong. If Shang Jianxiong didn't issue the order himself, someone would naturally do it for him. He turned around and walked to Tian Yu, staring at Tian Yu. "Manager Tian, please hand over the secret list of the Intelligence Department!" There are some important lists that only Tian Yu has control over.

Tian Yu smiled and bowed, "Elder Shen, we must ask His Majesty's will for this matter."

"Really? Do you think it matters whether you give it or not?" Shuan Chun said disdainfully. It is indeed not important. A few secret agents will not affect the overall situation. However, this guy who is under house arrest can still get people to leak information. It is very unfortunate. Simple, staying with Shang Jianxiong is even more dangerous.

Uh-huh! Suddenly he drew his sword, and the cold light of the sword penetrated into Tian Yu's heart.

Uh-huh! The sword is sheathed.

Shang Jianxiong's eyes widened and he watched Tian Yu, whose face was full of pain, slowly fall down.
