C259

According to the plan, all of the orders would be sent down with the will of the reverse scale fire.

The ministers who had been temporarily imprisoned, upon being summoned by the empress dowager, finally learned of the death of King Shoulder. They trembled all over, knowing that the weather had changed.

The corpses of the nine heavens of the palace were placed within the palace. Everyone was finally relieved when they saw the corpses of the nine heavens of the palace. No matter how uncertain they were before, now that the Emperor was still alive after the death of the Nine Heavens, their only choice was to stand by the Emperor's side.

Before, the Fiery-Scales had seen them once in secret. Now that they didn't see the emperor issue a decree, but the empress dowager instead, they were all a bit puzzled.

"The Emperor himself will lead people to pressure the soldiers and horses brought back by the King. He will take control of the troops and temporarily let This Dowager take charge of matters in the imperial court. "Yong Lianyun, the things that the Emperor has discussed with you before, can now begin."

He could no longer maintain a calm and tranquil expression on his face. He kneeled on the ground and said, "This official shall do his best to clear away the evil King Shoulder."

A few ministers were sent out of the palace. Under the leadership of Yong Xianyun, they planned to start carrying out the plan and clear out the King of Shoulder's trusted aides and survivors.

The night of the Blood Qi had also made the moon in the sky seem hazy and cold. It was as if the moon was covered with a layer of faint, blood-colored light.

A thick smell of blood wafted around the palace. This time, the King of Shoulder and his guards were all assassinated, but the purge in the palace had just begun.

When the several hundred bodies of the Royal Protectors were pulled down, even more corpses appeared from the rear palace. At this moment, the palace had already lost its former splendor and tranquility. With wails of grief, the palace maids and eunuchs all fell to the ground.

The empress dowager's face was dark as she personally took charge of the harem and presided over the purge.

The imperial court had also begun its purge. In the dark night, the imperial guards' hooves had broken through the tranquility of the Ancestral Dragon City. This night was destined to be a sleepless night.

Without any superfluous words, countless officials were still sleeping as they were dragged away by the imperial guards. Along with their families, they were sent into the prison. If they resisted even a little bit, their entire family would be exterminated; not a single one would be spared.

The Ancestral Dragon City had already been sealed. Even if they escaped tonight, no one would be able to escape the Ancestral Dragon City.

At this moment, Han Xing was being ordered to reward the soldiers of the King who stood side by side, distributing the wine, meat, and possessions he bestowed down, and accompanying everyone else in drinking.

"Generals, thank you for your hard work. I have come to reward the three armies with my decree. Generals, please."

The wine and delicacies brought from the palace were distributed, and the military camp remained silent.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Governor."

The great general under the Shoulder King's command replied indifferently. He was only drinking lightly, and no one dared to eat and drink to their heart's content.

Han Xing didn't bother about it and accompanied everyone else for a while before taking his leave.

Walking out of the side King's camp, a sneer appeared on Han Xing's face. Whether it was in the wine or food, they were all drugged, causing these people to lose their ability to resist.

"The emperor really has a good method. Otherwise, who knows how much trouble he'll have to go through, how many people will die, and how many people will be alerted."

Han Xing led a large group of imperial guards and surrounded the soldiers that the King had brought into the Ancestral Dragon City.

Soldiers and soldiers began to fall in the army camp. By the time someone noticed that something was wrong, too many people had already lost their ability to resist.

Han Xing lead the elite soldiers straight in, holding the imperial edict and shouting loudly: "Obey to the heavens! The imperial edict says that the Nine Heavens of the palace are of high authority! We bestow upon them the title of king side by side, and their kindness is like the sea. The palace did not think about the grace of a king. They would support their troops and plan to rebel. Entering the palace tonight to assassinate the king was an unforgivable crime. Nine days have passed since the palace was executed. All of the people under my command shall let bygones be bygones, by not offending the masses, and those who disobey shall be executed without mercy, and their families shall be exterminated! "

As long as the king was present, they would dare to rebel, kill their way into the forbidden palace, and even kill the emperor.

When they heard that the King of shoulder was killed, the first thought they had was disbelief, and the second was resistance.

But at this moment, there were very few people who could stand up. Han Xing ordered his subordinates to tie up those who had lost their ability to resist.

"Han Xing, how dare you."

Ding Fei did not even drink a few mouthfuls of wine. He still had the strength to resist.

Han Xing raised his hand and said, "Ding Fei, you dare to disobey the decree? Even if you are not afraid of death, your men will die because of your stupidity, as well as your family and the families of your soldiers. "You have to understand that as long as you put down your weapon, the Emperor will still be able to save your life, as well as the lives of these tens of thousands of people."

"The prince will not die, nor will he kill you."

"Ding Fei, did you see that?"

Ding Fei followed Han Xing's finger and looked at the sky. At this moment, a few fireworks rose up from the direction of the Imperial Palace. The gorgeous fireworks left behind a flash of beauty in the air before disappearing.

"This is a message from the Emperor. The King of Shoulder has been executed. General Ding Fei, this official knows that you are the King's beloved general." "Don't forget that the general has also expressed his loyalty to the emperor. Now, as long as you act according to the emperor's orders, not only will you live a carefree life, you can even be promoted to the next rank."

Ding Fei's eyes widened as he stared into the dark night. "Your majesty, the emperor isn't riding …"

His mouth was filled with bitterness. At this point, he knew that this was a scheme by the Emperor.

"So you were aware of this matter. This imperial edict was personally written by the Emperor. General, please take it to have a look."

Someone placed the order in front of Ding Fei. Ding Fei lowered his head with great difficulty and looked at the familiar handwriting. They had once fought shoulder to shoulder with the reverse scale before, so they were very familiar with its handwriting.

"This, is a scheme?"

"Ding Fei, you still have one last chance. The Emperor, recalling the friendship between him and the other generals, cannot bear to use his saber to fight. The lives of ten thousand elite soldiers and many soldiers, as well as your families, are in your hands. It must be known that the crime of defying an imperial decree is a heinous crime of exterminating nine clans. "

"I don't believe, I don't believe that Prince has already …"

A few days ago, he was still kneeling at the feet of the prince and begging for forgiveness. At that time, he thought that he was doomed, but unexpectedly, the King of Shoulder Kings did not even punish him, thus he forgave his sin of treason.

From then on, not only did he swear his loyalty to the King, he also swore in his heart that he would never betray the king again.

Looking at the yellow imperial edict, Ding Fei stared at Han Xing and said, "Governor, please tell this general the truth. Your Highness …"

Ding Fei could not say the last few words. If he could, he would rather die by his own body in the place of the King of Shoulders.

Han Xing sneered, "Does General Ding still have any luck in his heart at this point? "I will not make things difficult for the general. The Empress once told me to treat all of you well, and General Ding can wait here. As long as you do not move, I will give the general one last chance."

Ding Fei sat down helplessly. He could risk his life, but tens of thousands of elite soldiers, especially the Wind Chaser Cavalry, were the life's work of the King. How could he risk the lives of these people?

At this moment, the group of people who had not fallen to the ground had already gathered together, wielding their weapons to confront Han Xing.

'Although Han Xing had an imperial edict in his hand, the only thing these people followed was the side king.'

"Could it be that the generals are conspiring to rebel and are causing trouble?"

Han Xing cast a sidelong glance at the crowd. If it weren't for the emperor's orders, if it weren't for the fear of the Wind Chaser Armoured Cavalry, he would have already ordered his men to attack.

"There is no need for the Governor to force us like this. If the Emperor were here, we would not dare to go against his decree. "However, at this moment, no one knows whether the edict is genuine or not. Since you said that we should wait patiently, please calm down. We will wait here for the emperor's orders."

A person clad in black soft armor, emitting a strong killing intent, stood up and stared at Han Xing.

Han Xing's expression changed slightly. The commander of the Wind Chaser Cavalry, Yan Zhen, was known as the 'Yama Luo of the Night'. He knew that the one who could truly make the decision was this commander, Yan Zhen.

Therefore, he nodded his head with a cold smile: "Since Commander Yan has said so, then so be it. The remains of the King Shoulder Emperor will be delivered to this place in a while. If you disobey the imperial edict again, don't blame me for being heartless."

"Please, milord."

Han Xing waved his hand and retreated while the soldiers and soldiers stood in confrontation with the King's men. Although the King's men did not have the advantage at this moment and most of them had already fallen, many of them had been captured by his men, Han Xing still did not dare to be careless when facing Yan Zhen.

Yan Zhen slowly turned around and entered the back hall. His heart was filled with anxiety. At this moment, he was surrounded by the royal guards, and there was no news of him being the king. He didn't know what the truth was.

"Lord Commander, what should we do?"

"Wait!"

Yan Zhen looked at the dark night. He had already sent people to wait outside the palace gates. If there was any news, it should have already been sent back.

At this moment, the outside of the palace was in chaos. The troops that were waiting outside to support the Emperor Palace were suddenly attacked, and from among the many soldiers, Nan Feng rode his horse, holding the same decree as Han Xing.

After the loud proclamation of the decree, the body of the palace's Nine Heavens was hung high up in the night sky, swaying in the night sky.

Seeing the body of the King Shoulder, the soldiers were in a state of chaos. Their fighting spirit and morale had all collapsed. Without a king by their side and without a leader in their group, they no longer had the determination and goal to fight to the death.

"Plop, plop …"

Countless soldiers knelt down, tears streaming down their faces. Nanfeng did not press forward, but only indifferently looked at these people and ordered his subordinates to capture them alive.

Many people were tied up in grief. A fiery red figure appeared at the top of the palace walls. Although their faces couldn't be seen, everyone knew that the emperor himself had arrived.

"The King is planning to rebel. The King is planning to kill the King, and the King is planning to kill the King. Those who follow the King are not to be blamed. Otherwise, the entire family will be killed without mercy!"

Wu De's cold and shrill voice came from far away in the dark night. Although there were some people who wanted to rush into the palace to snatch the body of the Shoulder King, but when they saw the cold-blooded Emperor stand high up on the palace walls and look down on them, they couldn't help but kneel on the ground.

In their hearts, although the King shoulder to shoulder was unbreakable, the power of the reverse scale of fire was becoming increasingly profound. Their families were all in the Ancestral Dragon City. Shoulder King had already passed away, and they had lost their target. When they thought of themselves and their families, most people lost the courage to resist.

With the exception of the side king, the rest of the people left the matter alone, giving rise to a ray of hope in their hearts.

"His Majesty, Nian Er, and the others, who have followed the Emperor for many years, have achieved great military merits. I give you all a chance to keep your original positions and everything. If you disobey the imperial edict and rebel, you will be executed!"
