The Villain’s Host is a Boss

As for Gu Jinxiu and Shen Zhuji, they were temporarily imprisoned by her order, and executed only after the situation in the court stabilized.

For the next period of time, inside and outside the court hall, it seemed that the situation was calm and peaceful, but in fact, there was an undercurrent and turbulence.

Many ambitious ministers secretly formed cliques and colluded with each other, secretly recruited soldiers, and planned to force the palace to rebel under the pretext that Princess Anguo was a married woman and that women should not interfere in state affairs or be the regent. The rule of the Yun royal family was overthrown in one fell swoop.

Today's Yun royal family is withered. Ever since Empress Dowager Shen had an affair with the former regent Gu Jinxiu and was ordered to be confined, there are only the little emperor who is less than three years old, Princess Anguo, and Prince Chu Yunze remaining in the royal family.

Although Prince Chu Yunze was hailed as the number one God of War in the Northern Dynasties, with numerous military exploits and a great reputation for viciousness, he guarded the border all year round and could not return to Beijing without being called.

In the imperial capital, only the little emperor and the eldest princess of Anguo are left. It is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to raise troops to force the palace.

Without the support of Shen Guogong's party, it would be a breeze to overthrow the current court.

As for Prince Chu, who was thousands of miles away, he could not quench his near thirst. After he received the news, the situation had already calmed down, and he was powerless to recover.

The rebels reached a consensus, and it quickly became a trend. Then, at the time of the court, the arrogance became obvious and rampant, with the momentum to stand up and call the shots, and confront Yun Xi.

Not to mention, in order to eliminate dissidents and cut off the little emperor's wings, the rebels even fabricated crimes, blatantly framed the royalists who were loyal to the royal family, and forced Yun Xi to make an order to cut off these officials.

Since Yun Xi would not be persecuted by them, she directly ordered the Imperial Army to arrest all the rebels.

However, the rebels did not panic at all. They dared to be so arrogant, so they naturally had capital and confidence.

The entourage they brought sent out a signal when they sensed that the situation was not good, and then the rebel army quickly assembled and began to attack the palace.

Palace change, imminent...

Inside the imperial capital, people were panic-stricken. After realizing something was wrong, the people hurriedly hid in their houses, closed the doors, and dared not go out. The whole street was full of rampant and fast-paced disorderly troops.

Among the guards guarding the palace gate, there was a chess piece placed by the rebellious army. After receiving the signal, they chopped down the guards around them, opened the palace gate, and let the rebellious army inside.

The rebel army swarmed in, rushed straight to the court hall, and surrounded the noble and magnificent hall. Seeing this, the remaining courtiers' expressions changed instantly, and they almost fainted from fright.

The Northern Dynasty has been in peace for hundreds of years, these courtiers, have they ever seen such a scene of forcing the palace?

The Royal Guards, on the other hand, felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. When they saw the menacing rebels, the Imperial Guards immediately drew their weapons, put the whole army on alert, and confronted the rebels.

Above the high hall, the little emperor who was placed on the dragon chair seemed to have sensed that something was wrong, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and suddenly burst into tears, and the cry shook the entire hall.

The shrill cry of the baby made the courtiers of the party tense up and panicked.

The royalists all looked at the little emperor worriedly.

Lin'er, be good, don't cry.

Yun Xi frowned, and bent down to hug the little emperor. During this time, the Empress Dowager Shen was under house arrest, and she took the little emperor with her, so when holding him, she couldn't have been more comfortable.

Gu, aunt, I, I'm afraid... woo...

The little emperor grabbed Yun Xi's clothes with his chubby little hands, crying out of breath, looking pitiful.

Yun Xi gently patted his back to comfort him, and said softly, Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Auntie is here.

After coaxing her for a long time, the little emperor's crying gradually became quieter. He seemed a little tired from crying, rubbing his eyes and leaning against Yun Xi's arms in a daze.

Tsk, isn't the Eldest Princess coaxing the children very well? That's right. Women should hide in the backyard and coax the children. Why do you come here to interfere in politics? This is what we men should do, my lord. Eldest princess, how about this, if you hand over the military power and the throne, the old minister will look at Emperor Chong's face and spare you and the little emperor, how about it?

Ping Guogong, the leader of the rebellious party, saw Yun Xi coaxing the little emperor in public, so he couldn't help standing up to ridicule him, and he didn't forget to threaten him.

As soon as he appeared, his party members also stood up to help, and suddenly, there was a chatter in the hall.

That's right, go back to the backyard to raise a child, a daughter's family, what court do you control?

That's right, don't you really naively think that with just you, a weak girl, and a little emperor who hasn't been weaned, you can secure the Northern Dynasty? It's really a big joke.

Isn't that right? Your Yun family is over. If you are sensible, you should hurry up and give up the throne, and then marry our Duke as a concubine. Maybe it will keep your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life. In the past, the end of the princess of the subjugated country has not been very good.

...

Hearing the unashamed words of the rebels, Yun Xi didn't even raise her eyelids. She wanted to clean up these restless things for a long time. However, if she did not know what to do, if she directly attacked these people, it would make the loyal ministers feel cold.

Therefore, she suppressed her temper and waited until this day finally came.

Lingge, let me move faster, Lin'er is sleepy, and I want to take him to take a nap.

Yes, my lord.

Feng Lingge flashed out from the back of the hall, her figure was like a phantom, and she was among the ministers in the blink of an eye.

Sweeping fists and kicks, before the ministers had time to react, the rebels were already lying on the ground in a mess, losing all resistance, groaning in pain on the ground.

Such a powerful combat power directly stunned the army waiting for orders outside the palace.

Feng Lingge jumped up and landed on the high steps outside the hall, his bewitching phoenix eyes coldly swept across the rebellious army.

Listen, you are already surrounded. If you don't want to die, immediately put down your weapons and surrender, and wait for the regent to deal with you. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy.

After Feng Lingge finished speaking, there was a neat and crisp sound of drawing bows and setting arrows, and the rebels couldn't help but look around. Behind him, no one knew where, was crowded with the imperial guards.

The arrows in the hands of the imperial guards aimed at them one after another, surrounding them in all directions.

There is no way to advance, and there is no way to retreat. It seems to be in a desperate situation.

How could this be?

Didn't your lord say that the forbidden army surrendered to them?

Why are you still facing swords against them?

After a moment of panic, the chaos army finally realized that they were designed and took the initiative to enter the trap.

The Forbidden Army did not betray the little emperor or turn against their party at all, they just pretended to turn against them in order to deal with them.
