Chapter 291 The unrest subsides
It's snowing heavily.
The falling snow in the sky became heavier and heavier, gradually accumulating a thick layer on the ground.
The wailing in Fengtian Hall suddenly stopped.
The cold wind from the north is howling.
Lin Mang walked out of Fengtian Palace and stood on the stone steps, overlooking the entire imperial city.
In front of the palace, a group of royal guards stood neatly holding swords, looking solemn.
The soldiers and generals of each personal guard cast their peripheral vision at Fengtian Hall from time to time.
When Lin Mang returned, everyone understood why Yan Jue insisted on calling them to Fengtian Hall.
It turns out that all this was planned in advance.
Everyone's mood was not as calm as it seemed.
The fear in my heart could not be calmed down for a long time.
No one expected that the Marquis of Wu'an would play such a big game of chess.
He even goes to the extent of cheating his own death to deceive those who have double-minded intentions.
And today's scene allowed them to see the true strength of the legendary land immortal.
Many people even secretly speculated in their hearts whether Wu Anhou would usurp power and seize the throne and sit on the throne himself?
If Marquis Wu An really had this intention, what should they do?
After a long time, Lin Mang chuckled and said in a calm tone: "Concubine Zheng in the harem colluded with her relatives to usurp the throne and will be punished for treason."
"Zhai Yingting, the cabinet scholar, participated in the rebellion and killed the nine tribes!"
"..."
Lin Mang kept reading the names of each official, and even announced their life and death.
The struggle in the court is like this.
Either you die or I die, and there is no room for mercy.
Even if they really spare their lives, they won't be grateful at all, but it will make them more confident.
The imperial court never lacks talents. How many people are eyeing an official position?
Just in time, clean up this group of people and bring in a new group of people.
Partisan chaos will also be completely ended.
Sun En sighed softly, walked forward and said apologetically: "Sorry, luckily you came back in time."
Lin Mang shook his head and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you. This is not what you and I could have expected."
The emergence of White Lotus Sect and Tantric Sect was also beyond his expectation.
Although he was originally going to fish this time, his plan was more about Buddhism. However, he did not expect that people from Buddhism did not show up, but people from Tantric Buddhism and White Lotus Sect showed up.
When the fleet was about to return, he rushed back early.
Originally, he rushed back because of the Bozhou rebellion, but he never expected that there would be unexpected gains.
Lin Mang looked at Sun En and said in a deep voice: "I'll leave the affairs of the capital to you for the time being. I have to go to Bozhou."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mang took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
…
The turmoil in the capital came to an end with the arrival of Marquis Wu'an.
But for the officials outside the palace, they still don't know the situation inside the palace, and many people are still waiting for the battle in the palace to end.
Waiting for another day.
However, they are destined to be disappointed.
What will greet them will be a ruthless embroidered spring knife.
When the Jin Yiwei rushed out of the palace on horseback, everyone who had been paying close attention to the palace's movements was suddenly shocked.
"How could it be Jin Yiwei?"
Near the window of the restaurant, a man from the world suddenly widened his eyes and exclaimed in disbelief.
The wine glass in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
This sound instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the restaurant.
Everyone stood up quickly and crowded in front of the window, looking shocked.
"It's really Jin Yiwei!"
"How is this possible?"
Everyone was stunned when they saw the figures galloping out from the palace.
Many people know a thing or two about what happened in the capital today.
There are even many families and sects that are participants in this battle.
Today was supposed to be the day when Jin Yiwei was completely eliminated from the world, but now Jin Yiwei not only did not perish, but they were killed out of the palace?
But with 50,000 Beijing troops entering the palace, and thousands of Jianghu masters, how could the Jin Yiwei come out alive?
Everyone waited for a long time, and all they saw were the imperial guards galloping out of the imperial city.
Murderous!
An uncontrollable fear was born from the bottom of my heart.
Even if they don't know what happened in the palace, it is definitely not a good thing for the Jin Yiwei to rush out of the imperial city.
Not long after, news came out that the Jin Yiwei rushed into the home of the cabinet minister.
Zhai Mansion,
Zhai Yingting, the cabinet scholar, paced anxiously in the hall, waiting for news from the palace.
As a civil servant, it was naturally impossible for him to follow him into the palace.
And Zhai Yingting also has his own little thoughts.
Even though he was sure of winning this time, he was still very careful and prepared to take it clean if something went wrong.
But as long as it succeeds, he will be the chief minister of the cabinet and control the entire court.
Looking at the wind and snow outside the house, Zhai Yingting frowned slightly and said to himself: "Why has it been so long and there is still no news from the palace?"
"There won't be any accidents, right?"
As if to confirm his words, as soon as he finished speaking, a nurse rushed in from outside the hospital with a face full of panic, and said in horror: "Sir, it's bad, there are many guards in uniform coming outside."
"What?" Zhai Yingting exclaimed, his face full of shock.
"What's going on?"
Zhai Yingting asked quickly.
Before the nurse could speak, a cold voice came from outside the hospital.
"Let me tell you what's going on!"
A group of royal guards broke into the courtyard, their faces full of fear and their eyes piercing.
"Yan Jue?!"
Zhai Yingting looked at the incoming person, he was stunned for a moment, and then he feigned anger and said: "How presumptuous!"
"Yan Jue, what do you want to do?"
Although he scolded loudly, Zhai Yingting was somewhat lacking in confidence.
Yan Jue sneered and said, "Send Mr. Zhai on his way!"
Zhai Yingting's face changed slightly, and he said angrily: "Yan Jue, you are crazy!"
"I am a bachelor of the cabinet, an elder of the current court, and a leader of the civil society. I have no credentials. Why do you want to kill me?"
Zhai Yingting retreated in panic.
"Why?"
Yan Jue held the knife at his waist with one hand and said coldly: "I will tell you today why!"
"Just rely on this knife in my hand!"
"Just because this is the Marquis's order!"
Zhai Yingting was inexplicably shocked: "Master Hou..."
Looking at the royal guards, he was shocked and asked in surprise: "Marquis Wu'an is not dead?"
