Chapter 1153: Revealing the True Form (5)

Jingxing Street, where the Prince Longyang's Mansion is located, is tightly blocked by the Imperial Guards and the Supervisory Office's cavalry, and there are also many top third-rank warriors secretly watching this place.

The gate of the Prince's Mansion was closed.

The bustling scene of the past is no longer there.

Only carriages delivering daily necessities to the palace are allowed to enter Jingxing Street.

Rong Le Hall is located on the central axis of the palace. Passing through Rong Le Hall is the backyard of the palace.

In the past, Rong Le Hall was a place for holding family banquets or entertaining distinguished guests, and it was also where the core figures of the Bai clan held meetings.

West Flower Hall of Rongletang.

Prince of Longyang Bai Yunshuo, Deputy Privy Envoy Bai Yunrui, Bai Yunsheng and Bai Yunfei drank tea in silence, and the atmosphere was solemn.

"The emperor's intention to depose the queen is obvious. Brother... we have to prepare early." Bai Yunsheng transmitted the message.

It’s not that he only communicated with Bai Yunshuo.

Bai Yunrui and Bai Yunfei could also hear it.

Ever since Emperor Yongchang ordered the Bai family to reflect on their mistakes in seclusion and surrounded the palace with troops, the four brothers have been extra careful when talking to each other.

"How to prepare? Fight to the death?" Bai Yunshuo glanced at his third brother Bai Yunsheng.

"This……"

Bai Yunsheng was speechless.

Bai Yunrui said, "Before deposing the empress, Emperor Yongchang would have tried every possible means to accuse us of a grave crime. Fighting to the death would be tantamount to treason, which would be exactly what he wants."

"Are you going to just sit there and wait to die?" Bai Yunsheng said unhappily, not wanting to die in humiliation.

"It's unknown whether the kid Chen is dead or alive. If he breaks through in the Great Wilderness, our Bai clan still has a chance to survive. The mysterious strong man who caused a scene at the execution ground three months ago might be him." Bai Yunfei thought of Chen Hao and was inspired.

"Count on him?"

Bai Yunsheng shook his head and didn't think Chen Hao was alive.

"If we don't count on Chen kid, who else can we count on?" Bai Yunfei asked Bai Yunsheng.

He knew very well that his third brother had always been dissatisfied and resentful towards Chen because his children and grandchildren had been disciplined by Chen.

"It's better to wait for death than to rely on a dead man." Bai Yunsheng said while glaring at Bai Yunfei.

"Third brother, if you really care about the Bai clan, you'd better pray that kid Chen survives and breaks through to become a god of war. Only then will we have a chance of survival!"

Bai Yunfei showed his dissatisfaction with Bai Yunsheng. At a time when the whole family was facing life and death, he still couldn't let go of the grudges from the past.

"you……"

Bai Yunsheng has more to say.

"All right!"

Bai Yunshuo stopped the two brothers from arguing.

At this moment, he also hoped that kid Chen could survive and become a god of war, but this hope was too slim.

Worried, he stood up and paced, thinking about what to do.

"Your Majesty..."

The palace steward hurried into the West Flower Hall of Rongde Hall and said in panic, "Wei... Lord Wei, bring... bring someone to deliver the decree!"

Duke of Wei refers to Wei Jun.

When someone from the Supervisory Office conveys an imperial edict, it means that the person receiving the order has committed a serious crime.

Now the envoy of the Supervisory Office came to the palace to deliver the emperor's decree. Bai Yunshuo, Bai Yunrui, Bai Yunsheng and Bai Yunfei were terrified.

Emperor Yongchang is going to take action?

This is too fast.

It was only three days ago that Emperor Yongchang said in public that the evil concubine could be the model mother of the country.

Bai Yunrui, Bai Yunsheng, and Bai Yunfei subconsciously looked at Bai Yunshuo.

At this time, only Bai Yunshuo, the head of the family, can decide how to deal with it.

Bai Yunshuo frowned, sometimes clenched his fists, sometimes shook his head.

At the same time, Wei Jun held the imperial edict in both hands and walked forward expressionlessly. Black-clad imperial cavalry and golden-armored imperial guards followed Wei Jun into the palace in an endless stream.

The influx of Ti cavalry and imperial guards quickly dispersed, took control of the palace guards and servants, and broke into various courtyards.

There was chaos in the palace.

Wei Jun led his men through the three palaces on the central axis of the palace and came to Rong Le Hall.

In addition to Bai Yunshuo, Bai Yunrui, Bai Yunsheng and Bai Yunfei, more than one hundred core members of the Bai Clan have gathered here.

Most of these people gritted their teeth and clenched their fists, staring at Wei Jun who was leading his troops in, and understood what Wei Jun's arrival meant.

A large number of experts from the Supervisory Department and powerful guards surrounded the Bai family.

Wei Jun looked sullen, facing Bai Yunshuo, holding up the imperial edict, and said coldly: "Longyang County Prince Bai Yunshuo and his family, accept the edict!"

Bai Yunshuo frowned and stared at Wei Jun.

At this moment, he sensed that at least ten first-rank warriors were staring at the palace, and there was a powerful aura that appeared and disappeared from time to time.

Mars!

Bai Yunshuo made a judgment.

This god of war was undoubtedly intimidating him.

Moreover, he was familiar with this aura; it was the ancestor of the Fan family!

His heart sank suddenly, as the other six clans had most likely sided with Emperor Yongchang.

"Big brother..."

Bai Yunsheng almost gritted his teeth when speaking, not wanting to be bullied.

"Prince Longyang, why don't you kneel down to receive the order? Could it be that..." Wei Jun and Bai Yunshuo looked at each other with ferocious smiles.

"Accept the order!"

Bai Yunshuo shouted.

If the Bai clan fights to the death now, they will definitely suffer the most severe blow from the imperial court.

The Bai family members who wanted to fight to the death saw Bai Yunshuo slowly kneeling down, so they had to kneel down as well.

Wei Jun curled his lips with great disdain and unfolded the imperial edict.

"The emperor is destined to be transported by heaven, and the edict says..."

Wei Jun read out the imperial edict.

The Bai clan colluded with the Changsheng Sect to endanger the court and the people.

The imperial edict of Emperor Yongchang pinned this heinous crime on the Bai clan.

The kneeling members of the Bai family had veins bulging on their clenched fists, and were filled with grief and indignation.

After reading the imperial edict, Wei Jun proudly ordered, "Catch all the suspects!"

The soldiers swarmed forward.

Many of the Bai clan’s descendants stood up angrily.

"The emperor has ordered that if anyone resists the law, the entire family will be in trouble!" Wei Jun shouted with murderous intent.

The group of Bai clan members who tried to resist looked at Bai Yunshuo.

Bai Yunshuo was silent for a moment, then closed his eyes in pain and said, "Whoever brings disaster to the entire clan, I, Bai Yunshuo, will kill first!"

The imperial edict said that only the main suspect should be arrested.

The Bai Clan is so big, including its branches in various places, as well as its forces, both overt and covert, with over 100,000 people and tens of thousands of warriors.

There are dozens of first-grade warriors.

Such a huge force surpasses any sect in Daxia.

Bai Yunshuo firmly believed that Emperor Yongchang was unwilling to force the Bai clan to rebel, otherwise many places would fall into chaos and turmoil.

With the profound foundation of the Bai family, he can negotiate terms with Emperor Yongchang.

After thinking about it, he opened his eyes, turned around and sent a message to more than a hundred people including his three younger brothers: "It's worth it to exchange us for the lives of 100,000 people in our clan!"

Bai Yunrui sighed.

Bai Yunfei smiled bitterly.

Bai Yunsheng, who had no place to vent his anger, roared with his head raised.

Rebellion will bring disaster to the entire clan.

Sacrificing a few and preserving the majority is the best outcome.

The descendants of the Bai clan who wanted to take action understood the good intentions of their master and gradually calmed down.

"Take it!"

Wei Jun waved his hand domineeringly.

"Let's see who dares to move!"

As the voice sounded, people arrived. The old dowager, dressed in a princess's dress and holding a dragon-headed cane, walked into the courtyard with dozens of female relatives.

The Inspectorate and the Imperial Guards who were originally going to control the backyard were forced to retreat by the old lady.

Wei Jun looked at the dragon-headed cane in the old lady's hand and frowned slightly.

“This dragon-headed cane was bestowed by Emperor Taizu. It is engraved with ‘sharing the country’, which means that our Bai clan shall share the country’s fate. Do you want to disobey Emperor Taizu?” After the old lady said this with a glare, she picked up the dragon-headed cane and slammed it heavily on the ground.

"Mother……"

Bai Yunshuo wanted to persuade his mother not to make trouble.

Unless Emperor Taizu is resurrected, the only function of this dragon-headed cane is... to symbolize the former glory of the Bai clan.

"The Bai Valve is a disaster to the country and the people. They don't deserve to have this crutch anymore!"

A sudden sound came.

Then the golden dragon-headed cane flew out of the old lady's hand and disappeared in a flash.

The old lady was dumbfounded.

"Take it!"

Wei Jun gave the order again.

All the members of the Bai clan, including their women, were quickly controlled by the imperial guards.

"How could you do this...you..." The old lady who had thought she could turn the situation around with her dragon-headed cane was pinned to the ground by two imperial guards and was completely panicked.
