Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Chapter 407 I Want Military Power

"If you have anything else to say, please tell me." The emperor glanced at him.

"I want military power." Li Junhao said without thinking.

His words made the emperor and Li Junsheng instantly understand why he was so anxious to enter the palace today and ask the emperor to order the change of his status as the crown prince. It turned out that this was his main purpose.

The emperor pondered for a long time. It was not that he was worried about handing over the military power to Li Junhao, but he was worried that he would do something irreparable in order to avenge his mother and brother.

"Okay, but you have to let Yan Beiwang be your deputy general."

The emperor finally agreed, but also put forward his own conditions.

"Okay, your son obeys your command." Li Junhao finally breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor had agreed.

He also knew in his heart that the reason why the emperor asked Yan Beiwang to be his deputy was because he was worried that he would do something extreme. However, Yan Beiwang was well-known for his integrity and would not blindly agree just because of his status.

Li Junsheng said at this time, "Brother Crown Prince, you should keep all the people you sent to my side with you."

Even in the military, it is good to have a few secret guards to protect you.

Li Junhao shook his head. "In this extraordinary period, the safety of our father and you is the most important."

As soon as he finished speaking, Simao De walked in led by Eunuch Cheng Ping.

As soon as he entered the hall, he immediately noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Many people have said that the emperor is already seriously ill and has not attended court for several days. However, when we saw him today, it was clear that the emperor was in good health except for his pale complexion.

"Greetings to His Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and His Royal Highness the Eleventh Prince."

He greeted them one by one, then stood aside with his hands clasped, waiting for instructions.

"Draft an edict to depose Li Junhao from the position of crown prince and appoint him as the General of Zhenbei. At the same time, appoint the eleventh prince, Li Junsheng, as the crown prince of the Great Chu State."

The emperor's voice was not loud, but there was no hesitation in his tone, which made Simao dei terrified.

He quickly glanced at Li Junhao and found that the other party seemed very calm, while Li Junsheng was a little uneasy. He immediately understood in his heart that this should be something Haoer had planned in advance.

"Yes, I obey your command." Simaode agreed, without further words, turned around and walked out of the hall.

But he knew in his heart that the situation in Da Chu was about to change.

This is going to be a big deal. Moreover, Hao Er was named the General Zhenbei. Zhenbei? Beiyan?

As smart as Simaode was, he had already guessed most of the information without asking anything, and he couldn't help feeling even more uneasy.

The Northern Yan army, due to the harsh environment and years of war with the neighboring northern barbarians, not only has a large number of people, but also has a large number of forced laborers to serve them. If there is any unusual movement, it will certainly be a major event that shakes the foundation of the country.

Yan Nangui collected all the information he had and was about to instruct Deputy General Niu on the next course of action when he received several pieces of news that made him drop his jaw.

The first one was the imperial edict that the emperor had just announced. Li Junhao became the General Zhenbei, and the Eleventh Prince Li Junsheng became the Crown Prince.

Another piece of news was that his old man was going to come out again to serve as the deputy to the prince... no, to Li Junhao.

These two pieces of news were enough to shock Yan Nangui so much that he was speechless, but there was another matter that was even more tricky.

Deputy General Niu brought back news that "someone took out a stunning incense pill and went to a slightly larger incense shop to inquire about the price. The incense pill was translucent white and shiny, something no one had ever seen before."

Before Yan Nangui could say anything, Sang Mo had already walked in from the door. "Have you arranged anyone to follow the person holding the fragrant pill?"

He knew that this should be a treasure that Gu Xunwei had made at that time but had not yet been released to the market. There must be a mystery behind its appearance at this time.

Deputy General Niu nodded, "We also heard about this matter and guessed that it might be related to Wangyu Tower, so we sent someone to follow him. That person was very cautious and circled the capital several times before returning to the Bachelor's Mansion."

"Bachelor's Mansion?" Sang Mo and Yan Nangui spoke at the same time. Did they mean that Gu Xunwei was imprisoned in the Bachelor's Mansion?

No wonder they made such a big fuss and searched almost the entire capital city, but didn't find any clues about Gu Xunwei. It turned out that he dared to do such a bold thing.

However, these are just their guesses now, so they still have to find a way to confirm it as soon as possible.

How could a cunning man like Wang Zhuo keep Gu Xunwei in his house like this? There must be other tricks.

"Lord Yan, please don't act rashly. I will report to His Majesty, and then we will..."

Before Sang Mo finished speaking, he heard Xiao Fuzi's voice coming from outside the door. He trotted in, saw Yan Nangui and shouted, "Lord Yan, hurry up and take the guards to the Third Prince's Mansion."

When Yan Nangui saw that it was Xiao Fuzi, he naturally did not suspect anything else. Then, seeing his panicked expression, he looked at Sang Mo, and the two of them ran out the door at the same time.

Sang Mo was faster than Yan Nangui and arrived at the gate of the Third Prince's Mansion alone.

Li Junhao has brought a lot of guards to surround the Third Prince's mansion. Especially at the gate of the mansion, there are three layers of guards inside and outside, and there are also many people watching the fun outside.

Wen Jiaxiang stood guard at the door in fear, his face showing an expression of extreme panic. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly came running over and was about to enter the mansion to arrest someone. Who would really dare to stop him?

"Your Highness, what does this mean?" he asked fearfully.

"Someone saw a fugitive hiding in the Third Prince's mansion, so we now request to enter the mansion to arrest him. Please be flexible." Li Junhao said very politely.

"Your Highness, you may not know that the Third Prince has been summoned to the palace and may not be back for a while. Do you think..."

Although Sang Mo didn't know Li Junhao's plan, at this moment, the tacit understanding between the two of them had already made him know what he should do.

"Oh, Wen Jiaxiang, you are so brave. You dare to stop General Zhenbei's men? I think you are tired of living."

Sang Mo stepped out from the crowd, his tone full of threats.

When Li Junhao is not convenient to speak, he is Li Junhao's mouth.

"This, this, it's really because His Royal Highness the Third Prince is not in the palace, so I can't make the decision. General Zhenbei, please wait for a moment..."

However, before Wen Jiaxiang could finish his words, Li Junhao waved his hand and a group of guards at the door began to rush in.

At this moment, a lot of soldiers rushed out from the door, holding weapons and confronting the people outside the door.
