Chapter 835 Life Simulation - Rebellion
Immediately, some courtiers advised me to put the fifth prince under house arrest no matter what, and ordered that the border general be stripped of his power to control troops and horses, and that new people be sent to replace the commander. Border County.
The emperor promised, but the successor he sent was intercepted and killed on the way before he arrived at the border county. There were wars in the border county and the enemy invaded the border.
First, it was rumored that the compilation of the dead men was intended to unite with the generals to rebel. Before they could be cleaned up, they received news that the generals were gathering troops, which deepened their suspicions.
But if this is just a suspicion, then when the envoy sent by the emperor to deprive the power of military control was intercepted and killed, and the news of the war in the border counties came back, the fifth prince would be completely disappointed anyway. He was crucified for treason, and all of this was not subject to his will.
Whether he is willing to admit defeat and surrender, or whether he should risk his life and fight, the decision lies in the thought of the fifth prince.
It must be said that the fifth prince who has been able to reach this day and has the courage to participate in the seizure of the heir is definitely not a waste. In such a situation, he knows that his explanation has no meaning, and bowing his head will only lead to death. Only by really taking action can there be a chance of survival.
When others suspect that you are a threat, you'd better have the ability to threaten, so as not to become a mercenary.
The fifth prince chose to give it a try. Under the protection of his strong masters, he escaped from the royal capital and successfully arrived at the border county. He actually joined forces with the general of the border county to fight The emperor was deceived and wanted to raise an army to clear the emperor's side. A large number of people were gathered in an instant, and the momentum was huge, which changed the situation of the Hong Dynasty.
The second prince and the third prince who originally framed the fifth prince were also dumbfounded. They just wanted to use this to attack their opponents and cut off their wings. However, they did not expect that the fifth prince would act so boldly. Anti-flag.
The prince rebelled with great force. Although the old emperor was getting old, he was furious.
As an emperor who has ruled this dynasty for more than a hundred years, although he has never expanded the territory based on his ancestors, he has made great achievements, defeated powerful enemies, and suppressed many rebellions. A generation of overlords.
Now in his later years, his prince personally started a rebellion. This was almost unacceptable to the emperor. He immediately ordered an expedition, even if it were not for the objection of the ministers and his unsuitable body. , this old emperor who was wise and martial in his youth might even lead an army to put down the rebellion himself.
This time's counterinsurgency is also an opportunity for the other two princes who are qualified to compete for the throne, because if they can seize this opportunity, they will have an excuse to infiltrate their forces into this army. In Fangzhong, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The army set out, and the two princes checked each other and failed to get the opportunity to lead the army. On the contrary, this opportunity was obtained by the inconspicuous Ninth Prince.
The fifth prince is indeed very powerful, and this time he raised troops, which also created a huge momentum, but everything happened too hastily, except at the beginning when the army was caught off guard and captured several cities and occupied several counties. The shortcomings of insufficient preparation were immediately exposed. Even the occupied city could not be completely ruled. The continuous civil strife blocked his plan to continue to send troops down, and he could only hurriedly command the army to suppress the civil strife everywhere.
And during this delay, they immediately waited for the army of the imperial court to arrive. Even though the fifth prince fought desperately, facing the imperial army that gathered masters and elite soldiers, the rebel army of the fifth prince was immediately defeated. , he could only lead his cronies to escape. The fifth prince was also very lucky. Although the army was defeated and suppressed with great force, he still escaped with his life. When the Hong Dynasty had no place to stay, he actually chose to seek refuge in the enemy's country for refuge.
For such a situation, the old emperor was furious but he also knew that this was not the time to raise troops and could only send experts to assassinate the fifth prince.
But no matter what, this rebellion of the fifth prince has completely eliminated the chance of ascending to the throne. Now it seems that the emperor of the Hong Dynasty can only be born between the second prince and the third prince.
There is only one opponent left. As long as he can defeat the opponent, it means that he will be completely victorious and can smoothly ascend to the throne of the emperor. At this time, the two princes also began to suppress each other without reservation, tit for tat just for the final victory. victory.
But what no one knew was that the ninth prince who had commanded the army to suppress the rebellion of the fifth princes had quietly come to Taixuan Temple in the royal capital to meet Pei Xuanjing, the seventh emperor's brother.
This time, the Ninth Prince is the commander-in-chief of the army to suppress the rebellion. But in fact, everyone knows that this Ninth Prince is only in name. The real commander-in-chief is the generals, but it is undeniable that the Ninth Prince is the commander-in-chief of the army this time. The opportunity brought the Ninth Prince to fame, from obscurity to fame.
"I came here today for no other reason than to hope that the emperor can stop the formation in the capital for a moment when necessary. I will definitely be rewarded in the future."
This is When the Ninth Prince came to Taixuan Looking at the purpose expressed by Pei Xuanjing, he knew that his imperial brother had extraordinary attainments in Taoism. Even if he had not had much success in martial arts, he could intervene when necessary if the other party was willing. The hub of the royal capital’s formation.
The hub of the royal capital formation is the real core of the protection of the Great Hong Kingdom. Its importance is higher than the many legions guarding the royal capital, because the core of the royal capital formation hub has been passed down for thousands of years. When the Immortal Dao was still there, It was built when it was still in decline. Once it is opened, even the top warriors of the twelfth floor cannot break it in a short time.
Although the hub of the royal capital's formation is said to be in the hands of the emperor's trusted formation master, according to the information that the Ninth Prince deliberately detected, his imperial brother is also capable of intervening in this formation. Legal hub.
“Unexpectedly, this Ninth Prince is so hidden that even I have not noticed it.” A slightly surprised look appeared on Pei Xuanjing’s face.
After the Ninth Prince stated his purpose of coming, he immediately understood what the other party was thinking.
Indeed, although he has been living in seclusion in Taixuan Temple, Pei Xuanjing has the ability to control and influence the hub of the royal capital's formation.
Not to mention that Pei Xuanjing was originally a true immortal and a true spirit who came to the world, and his cultivation has reached an unfathomable level after so many years. In addition, only a few people in the Hong Dynasty knew that the seventh prince, who had always been extremely low-key and reclusive, was actually... He holds the authority over part of the royal capital's formation hub.
