The attacks of the Sanshui Army on the palace were like thunder, it did not rain and people were shouting happily, but they still refused to charge and attack. How could Liang Xing not see through such an overbearing attack of Sanshui Army? However, he was worried, and there was nothing he could do, as he was afraid that Sanshui Army would be forced into the opposite direction, and he would no longer be under his control.

Just as Liang Xing was anxiously scratching his ears and cheeks near the palace, Wu Yu was escorted over with all kinds of clothes tied up. Seeing Wu Yu, Liang Xing's eyes lit up. He took large steps forward and stood in front of Wu Yu, purposely sizing him up. With the corners of his mouth raised, he said unhurriedly: "Wu Yu, you never expected this to happen, right?!" Wu Yu's face became extremely ugly, his eyes staring straight at Liang Xing in anger and hatred, his body shivering uncontrollably, but unfortunately, his hands and feet were being restricted, unable to do anything to Liang Xing, who was just inches away from him. He gritted his teeth and said: "Liang Xing, you don't have to be too proud. Sooner or later, your fate will be even worse than mine! Zhong Tian is a lesson learned from your mistakes! " "Haha?" Hearing that, Liang Xing couldn't help but laugh towards the sky, and said: "What kind of thing is Zhong Tian, to be placed on the same level as me! "Wu Yu, you still dare to say such rude words, do you believe that I can immediately kill you?!" understood that the hatred between him and Liang Xing was not at all small, if he fell into's hands, he would definitely suffer a terrible fate. Reaching out with his blade, and pulling back with his blade, Wu Yu would throw caution to the wind and shouted harshly without a care, "Old Thief Liang Xing, if you want to kill or cut me, it will be easy. A few of them took out their swords and walked to Wu Yu's left and right side, then looked at Liang Xing. As long as Liang Xing gave the order, they could immediately split Wu Yu into pieces. Even though Liang Xing hated Wu Yu and thought of him as his biggest rival, he had no choice but to consider the consequences of killing Wu Yu. Wu Yu was, after all, a Right Prime Minister, and possessed extremely high prestige. Thinking up to here, he suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke in an amiable tone, "Wu Yu, whether you live or die, This Emperor has his own conclusion, it's not up to you to worry! "You can just sit here and watch the show, and see how I can get into the palace!" At this point, he looked around and said, "However, there is no chair for you here. I think you should just kneel and watch." As he spoke, he raised his head to his own hanger-ons. Everyone understood and rushed forward, pressing on Wu Yu's head and shoulders, forcing him to kneel on the ground. Wu Yu had never felt so wronged in his life. Now, he even had the heart to die and cursed at Liang Xing. Not only was Liang Xing not angry, his heart also felt a lot better when he saw the humiliated Wu Yu laughing out loud.

Liang Xing's attempt to occupy the palace was temporarily blocked by the Pingyuan Army. On the other side, thousands of people made up of Liang Xing, Ziyang Haochun, Domestic Servant, and his hanger-ons had already started rushing towards Tang Yin's residence in a grandiose manner. Since Qiu Zhen and the others did not have a place to stay in the Yan City, they either stayed in the army camp outside the city or stayed in Tang Yin's residence. Naturally, Tang Yin's residence became the gathering place for the higher ups in the Tianyuan Army.

Right now, Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe, Shangguan Yuanyu, Wu Guang, Zhan Hu and the rest of the civil servants were gathered in the great hall. The information on Sky Eye and Earth Web were well-connected, so it could be said that when Liang Xing just knocked Bai Yong and Bai Yong out, Ai Jia received the information and passed it to Qiu Zhen and the rest.

The first thing they thought of was to gather the four armies from the plains, Chifeng, Heavenly Hawks, and other such forces to recapture the Soldier Symbol from the Sanshui Army. However, before the order could be passed down, Zong Yuan had already stopped everyone from entering, his eyes turned as he said faintly, "Don't all of you think that this is a good opportunity?" His sudden words caused everyone present to be stunned. Something had obviously happened, and the military might of the Sanshui Army had already fallen into Liang Xing's hands. Seeing that everyone was confused, Zong Yuan smiled, and looked at Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe and the other aides, and asked: "Master Qiu, Master Zhang, and the various Masters, do you really want to become a advisor that will never appear in public in your entire life?" As he said that, he looked at Shangguan Yuanyang and the other generals, and continued, "General Yuanyu, General Wu Guang, General Zhan Hu, do you also wish to become a real but nameless ordinary general?" Seeing the surprise on everyone's faces, Zong Yuan laughed and said: "I know that no one wants to, nor do you, but one day, if my lord is the king, it will be impossible to replace all the ministers in the imperial court in one go. We will have to do this bit by bit, find a reason to kick them out of the imperial court, but how long will it take? Ten years? Twenty years? But now it's good, Liang Xing has obtained the military power of Sanshui Army with his schemes, his first target will definitely be Wu Yu and his trusted aides. We just need to wait and see what happens, we just need to let them kill each other, and kill one each, and leave us with one more spot, the Lord will call himself King and the rest will have less resistance, and in the end, when both sides fight to a standstill, we can come out and clean up the mess. Furthermore, we can also openly eliminate Liang Xing and his forces, this way, Lord will no longer have any competition, and we can also join the imperial government. " Ouch! When Zong Yuan finished speaking, everyone's spirits were lifted. That was right, what Zong Yuan had said was not without reason, but now was indeed a good time to get to know of the old faction within the old empire. Shangguan Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. She gave Zong Yuan a big thumbs up and said with admiration, "Sir, you have a great opinion!" With that, he turned around and waved her hands towards Ai Jia, saying, "Ai Jia, let's not send any urgent documents to the four armies, let's change it to having the four armies stay put first!" Ai Jia nodded, and looked at Qiu Zhen. If Tang Yin was not there, he would be the commander of the Tianyuan Army. What he would do next would depend on Qiu Zhen's decision.

Qiu Zhen carefully thought about Zong Yuan's suggestion, and secretly nodded his head, thinking that it was indeed feasible for Zong Yuan's opinion to be heard, it was better to not move, than to interfere, but as the commander, he could not say it like that, once word of this spread, wouldn't the Tianyuan Army be targeted by everyone?

He blinked his eyes, thought for a while, and then slowly said: "Sanshui Army are our own brothers, we definitely cannot have our brothers kill each other, so let's temporarily have the four armies stay put, and think of other ways to take back the Sanshui Army 'Soldier Symbol and command." The scholar was like this, he spoke in a roundabout way whatever he wanted to say. He could just sit there and watch Liang Xing and Wu Yu fight each other to the death, why speak so much nonsense?!

At this time, Zhang Zhe took a deep breath, and said with worry: "What if Liang Xing leads the Sanshui Army to attack the Right Prime Minister Palace? "Perhaps, Wu Yu, and even Miss Wu Mei are worried for their lives!" Cheng Jin continued: "Please rest assured, Mr. Zhang Zhe. I have already sent our best men to protect Miss Wu Mei. As for Wu Yu, he is not within the protection range of my Dark Arrow." Zhang Zhe said faintly: "Wu Yu is Miss Wu Mei's father and has always been close to the Master Yu. If we were to be killed by Liang Xing, I am afraid that Lord will blame us for our actions when you return!" That's a nuisance! Everyone frowned and remained silent.

Zong Yuan laughed indifferently, and said: "I see that Mr. Zhang Zhe and everyone else is overthinking things, Master is only worried about Miss Wu Mei, not Wu Yu. Because of Miss Wu Mei, I see that Wu Yu is more like an elder's problem, he can't be touched, and he can't be touched, but he can still be seen, if Liang Xing really kills Wu Yu, Master will definitely feel sad, but he will definitely not blame us." In terms of perception, no one could compare to Zong Yuan. After hearing his words, everyone thought that it was indeed true, Tang Yin was normally very courteous to Wu Yu, but anyone who knew his personality would be able to tell that it was all just a facade. In reality, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

In the end, Qiu Zhen was the one who won, and everyone's eyes turned to Qiu Zhen. Qiu Zhen laughed bitterly and knocked on his forehead. After pondering for a while, he finally nodded and replied: "Alright, I will follow Mr. Zong Yuan's opinion on this matter!" After some discussion, they had basically settled on the matter. They agreed to stay put and to sit idly by the side. Actually, their decisions were more out of selfishness than out public honesty. No matter how hard the ministers tried to stop him, they would not be able to block Tang Yin's path to being a king.

The officials who were watching the fight amongst themselves, saying that clearing the way to call themselves king for Tang Yin was a lie, the main thing was to seek for personal gains. Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe, Zong Yuan, Shangguan Yuanzhong and the others were all Tang Yin's trusted aides. It was true, they were also sincerely loyal to Tang Yin, but why would they follow Tang Yin, willing to risk their lives just to do so? In the end, it was all for the sake of getting rid of the enemies.

For Qiu Zhen, he had spied on Liang Xing for a long time and had even dreamed that he would one day become the Prime Minister of Feng Country, bringing honor to his ancestors. But if Liang Xing did not go down, how could he climb up there?

Due to various selfish reasons, the higher ups of the Tianyuan Army did not mobilize the army guarding outside the city, and allowed Liang Xing to do whatever he wanted inside the capital city with his Sanshui Army. And it was also because of this that when the Sanshui Army was rebelling, the other four armies of the Tianyuan Army were surprisingly slow in moving, long time no action, and did not come up with appropriate countermeasures, much less forcefully attacking the capital. Otherwise, it would be impossible to seal off the four city gates of the Yan City with merely forty thousand Sanshui Army.

It could be said that the chaos occurring in the Yan City this time was caused by Liang Xing and the rest being driven into a corner by Wu Yu's mother, and it was also caused by the connivance of the higher ups in the Tianyuan Army.

Qiu Zhen and the others indulged Liang Xing, but Liang Xing did not plan to let them go. If Qiu Zhen and the others did not die, their Tianyuan Army would remain in the hands of Tang Yin and would become a huge threat to him.
