Chapter 278 Justified

"Hand over the Emperor's Sword?!"

King Yu stood up in shock and looked at Princess Yu with a faint smile in disbelief.

All fools know what the Emperor's Sword in front of them means!

Nowadays, there are many people in the capital who are eyeing the throne.

And among these people, he, the crown prince, does not have much advantage at all.

Handing over the Emperor's Sword at this time does not mean handing over all the military power of the three major battalions outside Beijing and the inner court guards?

"My lord, even with the Emperor's Sword, do you think those rebellious officials and traitors will allow us to easily mobilize the soldiers of the three battalions?"

Princess Yu reached out and took out the Emperor's Sword from the box.

According to the rules of the dynasty, unless the emperor borrows it, even the prince cannot touch the emperor's sword at will.

Not to mention a prostitute like Princess Ruyu!

"..."

King Yu didn't speak. He was slow to react, but being slow doesn't mean he's stupid.

The princess's words sounded a bit shocking, but when she thought about it carefully, she found that she made sense.

At this time, everyone's eyes were fixed on him as the prince, and someone would jump out to block his every move.

Especially Liu Xi, the governor of the East Factory!!!

As the eldest companion of the Thirteenth Prince, he would not let himself sit on the throne smoothly even if the Thirteenth Prince was not in the capital.

"Give it to who?!"

After Prince Yu thought for a moment, he looked at the princess again.

Princess Yu didn't say anything, she gently put the Emperor's Sword back into the box, and then looked at Prince Yu with an indifferent expression.

"Zhu ignored?"

King Yu knew that the princess wanted to see his decision, so he said tentatively.

Princess Yu did not speak, but shook her head gently.

This uncle's ambition is not much smaller than that of the Thirteenth Prince, and he also controls the Dragon Protector Villa.

Once he gets the Emperor's Sword, it is estimated that the other princes can go to sleep.

"Wei Zhongxian?"

King Yu shook his head when he saw the princess, and then said Jiu Qian's name.

In King Yu's view, Wei Zhongxian was always a eunuch, and what he sought was nothing more than overwhelming power.

At this time, the Emperor's Sword was handed over to him with the promise of huge profits. Wei Zhongxian would certainly not refuse the new emperor's olive branch.

The princess sighed lightly and then said: "Compared to Zhu Wuwu, this eunuch's ambition is not much smaller..."

King Yu gave a wry smile when he heard this, and then said slightly jokingly: "It's impossible to hand over the Emperor's Sword to Liu Xi, right?"

After King Yu finished speaking, the princess looked at King Yu blankly and said softly: "My lord, do you still think that the success or failure of things depends on these few kilograms of iron?"

"What's the meaning?"

King Yu was a little confused.

The princess sighed and said: "Hand over the Emperor's Sword to make them feel that they are profitable, because the Emperor's Sword can mobilize the three major battalions in the suburbs of Beijing. As long as they have soldiers in hand, they can do whatever they want!"

Speaking of this, the princess suddenly lowered her voice and said: "But the Emperor's Sword is just a dead thing after all. Once the prince takes control of the inner court, he will immediately order people to tell the world.

You are the crown prince, and your succession is justifiable!

And for a legitimate emperor, whether Tianzi Sword still has the right to mobilize troops can only be decided by you, the new emperor!!!"

After hearing this, King Yu suddenly realized!

You can do a lot of things with military power in your hands, but the premise is that the military power you hold in your hands must be justified!

When they compete for the Emperor's Sword, they will ignore other things.

And he only needed a few hours to successfully control the inner court in his own hands, and then succeed to the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

The late emperor died and the prince succeeded to the throne. No one could find fault with this.

By that time, the Emperor's Sword will be just a decoration for the soldiers of the three battalions!

"But this Emperor's Sword..."

Even after he figured out the princess's plan, King Yu still couldn't figure out who would be most appropriate to hand over the Emperor's Sword.

"The Governor of West Factory, Yuhuatian!!"

Princess Yu looked outside the living room, her eyes sparkling.

Xichang already had insufficient knowledge, and now that Yuhuatian has appointed the Commander of the Jinyiwei, he has not completely taken matters into his own hands with the affairs of the Jinyiwei and Xichang.

He appears to be unparalleled in power, but in reality he is strong on the outside and weak on the inside.

In Princess Yu's opinion, no one is more suitable than the Governor of West Factory.

"Someone is coming!!"

King Yu stood up and pushed open the guest door, shouting directly towards the outside of the courtyard.

In a moment, more than a dozen guards came to King Yu and bowed down to wait for his orders.

At this time, King Yu directly took the Emperor's Sword out of the box, handed it to a confidant in front of everyone, and said: "Borrow the Emperor's Sword to Gong Yuhuatian, the governor of Xichang, and order him to mobilize the three major camps in the suburbs of Beijing."

, escort into Beijing!!”

"Follow the order!!"

His subordinates immediately took the Emperor's Sword with both hands, turned around and galloped away from the mansion.

Although the rest of the people present bowed their heads and knelt on one knee, several of King Yu's subordinates' brows jumped when they saw the Emperor's Sword.

After the confidant left Prince Yu's Mansion, before he could reach the West Police Factory, his head was removed by an assassin who suddenly appeared.

The Emperor's Sword in his arms was also taken away by the assassin.

But after the assassin killed King Yu's followers and took away the Emperor's Sword, he was killed again before he crossed a street...



After King Yu sent the Emperor Sword away, he returned to the study before he and the princess could discuss the next thing.

Two figures suddenly appeared in the study.

"Please King Yu change your clothes and enter the palace!!"

One of them came forward with a tray in which was placed an embroidered dragon robe.

The other person stood aside, staring coldly at the princess standing behind King Yu not far away.

These two people are Ling Lingxi and Ling Lingcai from the Baolong clan.

Because he had seen it in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, Prince Yu was not too surprised. Instead, his eyes were staring at the dragon robe on the tray in Ling Lingxi's hand.

"My beloved concubine, change my clothes for me!"

Prince Yu waved his sleeves and said to Princess Yu behind him.

Princess Yu took a thousand steps, took the tray from Ling Lingxi, came to King Yu, and helped King Yu change his clothes.

"Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with the death of the late emperor?"

Princess Yu deliberately slowed down the movements of her hands and asked Prince Yu softly.

"My father has passed away, so all the eunuchs and eunuchs who were on duty that day will be killed without mercy!!"

When he said "Kill without mercy", King Yu had a bit of an emperor's air.

Plop!

Princess Yu, who was changing clothes for King Yu, turned around and walked up to King Yu at this moment, and knelt down heavily.

"My beloved concubine, why is this happening?"

Looking at Princess Yu kneeling in front of him, Prince Yu was also stunned.

Princess Yu did not reply, but turned to look at the two people standing in the study.

"My beloved concubine has something to say, but it doesn't matter. These two are different from ordinary followers..."

King Yu reached out to help Princess Yu, but Princess Yu dodged away.
