Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen wolf-like Jin Yiwei rushed forward and arrested Chen Guozhan and others without any explanation.

When the other officials saw that this one actually dared to arrest someone, they immediately exploded with a bang. Some were afraid of cowardice and did not dare to speak, while others were brave enough to curse loudly.

At this time, dozens of officials came out from the back of the Ancestral Temple, all wearing vermilion official robes.

Seeing the arrival of these court officials, Fang Zhengming not only was not afraid, but his expression became more and more serious.

"Let me see which one of you dares to take action."

The leader was none other than Grand Master Li Cun.

This was a big shot, the highest-level official of Dakang. Even Fang Zhengming didn't dare to look directly at him standing there.

Fang Zhengming did not expect that even Grand Master Li Cun would come to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to cry at the Temple. It seems that the mastermind behind the visit to the Imperial Ancestral Temple today should be Grand Master Li Cun.

"But I am following the emperor's order. Anyone who dares to mess around in the Ancestral Temple and disturb the ancestors will have their souls arrested. Could it be that you, old man, went to the wrong place?"

Fang Zhengming looked at the current Grand Master with a smile, and his expression gradually became tougher.

Li Cun stared at Fang Zhengming coldly, his eyes like falcons. He looked at Fang Zhengming with a sneer and said, "I advise you not to use a chicken feather as a command arrow. Do you think the emperor's words are an imperial edict? What on earth does he want to do with his throne?" Who in the world doesn’t know what he has gained?”

Grand Master Li Cun's words had already touched the bottom line, and Fang Zhengming did not hesitate at this time. With a wave of his hand, dozens of Jin Yiwei rushed forward, trying to capture Li Cun!

"It's a joke. If you want to arrest me, you're still far from being able to catch me. You're a young boy like me."

Li Cun took a step back, and the sound of shooting came from behind. Arrows were shot one after another, and dozens of Jin Yiwei were instantly shot into hedgehogs.

Fang Zhengming's eyes widened. He reacted quickly, turned around and ran away, but was still shot in the back. Fortunately, the Jinyi guards beside him fought to protect him, and Fang Zhengming managed to escape with a small life.

"Go and tell His Majesty that someone is planning to rebel."

Fang Zhengming turned pale with fright. He did not expect that while Kyoto's military strength was empty, someone would actually use force to rebel.

Today's move by the Crying Temple is just a cover, and the real trump card is yet to come.

"The south gate of Kyoto was breached by enemy forces."

"Someone opened the west city gate."

"A large number of unidentified people appeared at the east gate."

……

Listening to Jin Yiwei's report, Ning Fan's face was livid at this moment. He did not expect that the situation suddenly worsened.

At this time, he didn’t even know who his opponent was.

"How many soldiers and horses of Jinyiwei are still in Kyoto now?"

Ning Fan forcibly ordered himself to calm down, but his expression was as ugly as possible.

"There are about 10,000 Jinyiwei people left in Kyoto, but it is very difficult to gather the troops at this time."

Fang Zhengming groaned and said.

A sword pierced his back and came out directly from his chest. Now Fang Zhengming's face was sallow and he had almost no strength to speak.

This Jin Yiwei's command caused the core figure to be seriously injured at this time, and the usually well-trained Jin Yiwei was like a piece of loose sand.

The opponent was very vicious and deliberately lured Fang Zhengming to go there. The purpose was to kill Fang Zheng, so that Jin Yiwei would be completely paralyzed and the entire Kyoto would become a flat river.

"Your Majesty, the Guards alone are enough to feed these rebels. I have the confidence to defend Your Majesty."

Luo Yong, who was dressed in military uniform, had a murderous look on his face.

In addition to the Jinyi Guards, Ning Fan also has another trump card in his hand, which is the Imperial Guards.

The Imperial Guard was born out of dragons. The Lin Army was the most well-trained army in Ning Fan's hands, and many of them were equipped with firearms, and their combat effectiveness was astonishing.

The reason why Ning Fan could calm down at this time was because of the presence of the Guards. No matter how cunning these rebels were, Ning Fan remained motionless in all directions.

"Excluding the Imperial Guards training in the suburbs, there are still 15,000 Imperial Guards in Kyoto. These troops can last for a while. I will send people to contact the Imperial Guards outside the city at the same time. Inform the three major farms and ask them to use all their strength to support Kyoto."

Luo Yong said to Ning Fan.

Ning Fan nodded: "Send a small team to quickly bring the cabinet chief and his family to the Forbidden City. At the same time, close the gate of the Forbidden City and enter a state of fully armed alert."

The various gates of the Forbidden City have been closed, but Ning Fan's heart still hasn't calmed down. He is thinking about who his enemy is.

It is possible that the northwest rebels and some officials in the court have been flirting with each other, and the two sides are colluding with each other. It is not impossible to suddenly attack at this time.

But Ning Fan also thought about another thing, maybe these aristocratic families in Kyoto, whether they were secretly supporting these soldiers.

With the financial and material resources of these people, it is entirely possible to train an army in secret.

Just when Ning Fan announced the establishment of the imperial examination system, it completely disturbed these powerful families and the last piece of cheese, so these talents completely exploded, and thus the idea of ​​killing Ning Fan, the king, was born.

Everything is possible, but now is not the time for Ning Fan to consider these issues.

Ning Fan put on his armor again, carrying a long sword on his waist, and the atmosphere in the palace became serious.

The east gate of the Forbidden City had already heard shouts of death, and even the heavy wooden door was shaken by violent collisions.

Ning Fan saw Xina with a pale face, and Concubine Rong was also there, and they were also frightened.

Not to mention the rest of the palace maids and eunuchs. They were trembling and huddled together. They had never encountered such a situation before.

"Don't worry that these rebels can't get in. This is temporary. Reinforcements will arrive soon. With the cooperation between inside and outside, these rebels will soon be wiped out."

Ning Fan behaved calmly.

Due to the regular training of the Guards, Ning Fan now had the confidence to face sudden changes.

At this time, there was also a banging sound of shooting from the west gate. It was the sound of a flintlock gun. If it hadn't been an emergency, I believe Luo Yong would not have casually ordered the use of the flintlock gun.

Ning Fan hurried to the west gate. After climbing the city wall, he saw a pile of dead bodies outside the gate. At first glance, there were at least a thousand people.

Most of these people were killed by bows and arrows, and of course some unknown people wearing heavy armor were killed by bullets.

Ordinary arrows cannot penetrate thick armor. At this time, the importance of firearms is revealed. High-speed projectiles can easily penetrate armor and kill them. Even these heavily armored soldiers are facing Ning Fan. The flintlock gun was also vulnerable.
