I became emperor in the Tang Dynasty by relying on the palace fighting system

Li Zhao controlled the [Happy Face Puppet] disguised as Yue Bei Star Lord and took the lead to charge into the hall!

Behind her were countless palace soldiers in armor and weapons, as well as Yudou Xuanzun Zhuangzi's followers.

If the soldiers were equipped with armor and swords and trained, they would be almost like half of the government soldiers in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Zhi thought that if he didn't give military power to Taibai Jinxing, Yuebei Ziqi Luohou Jidu, Li Zhao would not be able to command the army?

Naive Li Zhi, you are totally wrong!

Power lies in the hearts of people, and the prestige that Yudou Xuanzun and the star gods have accumulated among the people and the palace soldiers over the years is no worse than that of Li Zhi, the orthodox emperor.

Li Zhao: Don't be fooled by my nonchalant and indifferent appearance towards ordinary people, but I have won over every single citizen whom I should win over.

When Chen Shuozhen, Yuebei Ziqi Luohu Jidu had nothing to do, they would often go to places where soldiers gathered to preach Taoism and Buddhism and help the people solve some practical difficulties.

Therefore, when Li Xian forced the emperor to abdicate, Yuebei Ziqi Luohu Ketu only had to say that he had calculated that the Emperor was in trouble, and after receiving the message from the Empress, the reincarnated god and Buddha, he easily mobilized the scattered soldiers among the people and part of the Sixteen Guards of the Emperor.

A few months ago, Chen Shuozhen returned to Chang'an from the Western Regions on the pretext of allowing the Prince of Qinghai to gain experience, and "just in time" to express her support for Li Xian and Pei Yan in forcing them to abdicate.

Li Zhao used her [Glib Tongue] skill a little more, and Li Xian, Pei Yan and others easily fell into the trap she had dug and rebelled in advance.

Yue Bei Xingjun kicked Li Xian and knocked him unconscious. She drew her sword and slashed it, cutting Pei Yan's throat!

Pei Yan's eyes were wide open, blood gushed out of his neck, and he fell to the ground with a thud. He struggled for a few times and could not get up again.

The palace soldiers behind him approached under the leadership of Ziqi Star Lord. The prince's men looked terrified and retreated step by step until they were forced into the corner of the hall.

Luohou Star Lord was leading his men to fight outside, and Ketu Star Lord was supporting them outside. Yuebo Star Lord directly grabbed Li Xian, went outside, and shouted to the rebels who were fighting:

"The prince has been captured by me. You must surrender immediately, or I will kill you without mercy!"

The sound was like thunder and everyone stopped what they were doing.

The prince's men looked pale. They saw clearly the person in Yue Bei Star Lord's hand. It was really the prince. They were defeated.

With a "clang", someone dropped his sword.

The sounds of swords falling to the ground rang out one after another, and all the prince's soldiers raised their hands in surrender. This palace coup finally came to an end.

Inside the hall, the air fluctuated, and Li Zhao appeared wearing the [Void Crane Cloak], using illusion skills to deceive the eyes of the survivors in the hall.

She took out the [Prison Cart Secret Bag] and took Li Zhi away from Wu Meiniang's arms in a flash, then used a [Happy Face Puppet] to transform into Li Zhi's appearance after vomiting blood, and threw it into Wu Meiniang's arms.

The illusion was immediately lifted, and everyone felt that they were frightened and confused by the palace coup. They were in a trance for a while and had no idea that the emperor had been replaced.

Wu Meiniang knew all of this very well, and did nothing. Instead, she shouted sternly, "Come here, quick! Call the imperial physician!"

"Imprison Li Xian, the beast who dared to rebel, murder the king and his father, into the palace!"

As soon as Wu Meiniang finished speaking, "Li Zhi" began to speak tremblingly: "Queen, call all officials to the palace."

Wu Meiniang's acting skills were top-notch. She nodded while crying: "Okay."

Several palace servants helped Li Zhi lie on the couch. The imperial physician came and felt Li Zhi's pulse. He shook his head and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent."

"The Emperor's anger has taken its toll on his heart and lungs, and no medicine can cure it."

Li Zhao specially asked the [Happy Face Puppet] to imitate the death pulse, so of course the imperial physician could not diagnose it.

Wu Meiniang sat beside the couch, her face heavy with sorrow: "How much time do you have left, Your Majesty?"

The imperial physician hesitated and said, "I'm afraid... it will happen tonight."

Wu Meiniang burst into tears and ordered, "I understand. Go down, Kudi, and let the servants prepare."

Get ready, prepare for what?

The emperor's funeral.
