Simulation becomes reality, have I ever looked down upon the eternity?

Chapter 112: Ancestors, take my head!
Inside Fengtian Hall.

The air seemed to freeze, heavy and depressing.

Dong Jie, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, was standing in the hall at this moment, looking through the window lattice at the gradually weakening attack outside.

Stop! All is quiet!
However, he did not feel relieved at all. Instead, he was filled with heavy worry and self-blame.

the reality is cruel!

The enemy troops outside were numerous, with no less than 4,000 heavy armored infantrymen, and they were surrounding the Fengtian Palace, trapping it tightly.

There are also more than 3,000 side guards on standby at all times, and if necessary, 10,000 troops can be immediately dispatched to launch an attack.

Such a disparity in military strength made Dong Jie feel unprecedented pressure.

It’s already ten times different!
Dong Jie knew very well that if it were not for his years of rigorous training and deep affection for the Jinwu Guards, they would have been defeated without a fight.

However, even so!

They could only be trapped in this main hall, without water or food, and their situation was precarious.

If the enemy had not been hesitant, they would have been killed or wounded long ago.

Dong Jie sighed, he had already lost!
But he was not convinced in his heart. If it came to real fighting, he would naturally not be afraid of people like Lu Lu.

Even if the number difference is three or four times, he is confident that he will not lose.

But it's all over!
The Jinwu Guard, this once mighty army, now has only about a thousand people left in this palace, and the rest are in the Jinwu Guard Mansion in Kyoto and are probably in danger!

There was only pain and resentment on his face.

"A bunch of rats!"

The Empress Dowager falsely conveyed the imperial decree to return to the palace to protect the emperor. The East Factory was destroyed. Dong Jie panicked and hurried back to the palace to rescue the emperor.

Unexpected!
Lu Lu set an ambush outside Xuanwu Gate, causing heavy losses to the Jinwu Guards.

Now, the situation is over!
What made Dong Jie even more disheartened was that the Yulin Army, on which he had placed high hopes, had yet to come to the rescue.

As time went by, he had already vaguely guessed the key in his heart - the Yulin Army had rebelled!

The news came like a bolt from the blue.

It's the end of the road!
The chain mail on Dong Jie was also stained with blood. He looked at a middle-aged man in a yellow robe standing under the portraits of emperors of past dynasties.

Zhou Zhen!

He knelt straight down and said in a sad voice:

"Master, Dong Jie is guilty. He is blind and did not realize that the imperial edict was fake!"

A loud bang!
"As for the Yulin Army, we entrusted them to the wrong people, which led to the disaster today!"

His voice echoed in the empty hall, filled with self-blame and helplessness.

Because Dong Jie was originally a servant in the Second Prince's mansion, and he called him master.

Zhou Zhen turned around and faced Dong Jie. His face was as calm as water, with no sadness or joy.

"Do not blame you!"

He said calmly, but his tone revealed an indescribable heaviness.

"I entrusted my trust to the wrong person. I didn't expect Xie Chun'an to be like this. The Yulin Army was originally given to him to be in charge. It has nothing to do with you."

Mention the name Xie Chunan!
Anger appeared on Dong Jie's face again, and he clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to tear the old man into pieces immediately.

Zhou Zhen's gaze once again fell on the portraits of emperors of past dynasties, each of whom showed him sitting on the dragon throne.

It appears majestic and speaks of the glory of imperial power.

Zhou Zhen said slowly:
"I am just curious, what exactly does Xie Chunan want to do? I originally wanted to be a good subject to him and truly trust him, but I never expected..."

He paused, frowned, and continued, "Besides, since he was involved in Chen Sanzhong's affairs, he has already angered the Empress Dowager, but why did he still act this way?"

Just as the two were lost in thought, a Jinwu Guard came in hurriedly and reported:

"Your Majesty, the Queen and the Grand Empress Dowager have arrived!"

Zhou Zhen nodded silently after hearing this, but when he heard the word "Queen", a cold look appeared on his face involuntarily.

This "close friend" immediately turned to the Empress Dowager after he disagreed with the Beifeng alliance.

"It is said that the relationship between husband and wife is a blessing that has been cultivated for hundreds or thousands of years..."

Zhou Zhen muttered to himself and shook his head, his tone full of self-mockery.

"I, the emperor, am being held back by two women!"

Dong Jie recalled what happened today, it was really unpredictable!
First, the Western Factory ambushed and killed Lu Chen.

Jinwu Guards later destroyed the Western Factory. Dong Jie used a golden arrow to win over Lu Chen.

The captain of the city gate sent troops to destroy the East Factory, which pushed the struggle to a climax.

Various forces appeared on the scene, and important court officials such as Guanglu Xun and Weiwei Tongling were also involved in the dispute.

False imperial edicts, ambushes, gunfights... one thrilling scene after another was played out in the palace, making the audience dazzled.

however!
When everything settled down, Dong Jie discovered that there was no real winner in this struggle.

Although the Empress Dowager seemed to have the upper hand, she actually suffered heavy losses.

The destruction of the Western Factory and the death of Chen Sanzhong!
Not only did the captain of the city gate lose a large number of troops, but more importantly, it brought the power struggle within the royal family to the surface, which was undoubtedly a great weakening of the imperial power.

Not worth the candle!

And there is only one reason for all this: Lu Chen came to Beijing!

And now Lu Shenzhou is at the center of the vortex.

it turns out!

Unharmed and safe.

This person has been practicing Taoism for fifteen years and has long been away from the center of the court. What role does he play in it?

Dong Jie felt that there were countless mysteries and he could not find the answers.

But it must be related to this young guard.

Another Jinwu Guard came in hurriedly and reported nervously!

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager and the Queen wish to see you."

Dong Jie stopped thinking and looked at his master.

The Empress Dowager was his blood relative, and the Empress had been his wife for more than ten years.

The struggle for power also requires human relationships!

After hearing this, Zhou Zhen chuckled, with a sad look on his face.

"Tell them I don't see you"

"It's me, I don't want to see them!"

"What's there to say about the winners and losers? Do you want me, Zhou Zhen, to be humble in front of two women?"

Zhou Zhen looked at Dong Jie and said:
"Adong, come here!"

When Zhou Zhen was in Qianfu, he also called Dong Jie "A Dong".

"Take up your sword, cut off my head, and take the title of Marquis."

"Zhou Zhen would rather die in your hands than in the hands of two women. Otherwise, how can I face my ancestors of Daqing?"

When Dong Jie heard this, he was struck by lightning. He looked up suddenly, his eyes full of disbelief and grief.

Dong Jie could not help but kneel on the ground, tears streaming down his face, and he was unwilling to get up for a long time.

Zhou Zhen sighed, his words bitter.

"Eight years as emperor, all lost in one day, like a dream!"

"Poor me, Zhou Zhen still wanted to achieve the same unparalleled achievements as his ancestors, but in the end...haha."

"After his death, his temple name was Emperor Xizong. How ridiculous."

The emperors with unique temple names include Taizong, Gaozong, Shizong and Zhongzong, who truly represent the ability of founding a country, reviving the country and governing with culture.

The upper class includes Renzong, Xiaozong, Shengzong and Xianzong.

His father was only a mediocre Shunzong, and was still working on recovering the northern territory.

Xizong is a temple name that is only slightly better than the king who lost his country.

During the reign of the user emperor, the country was in ruins, he did not control the government, and his position was almost a figurehead.

This time!

The Jinwu Guard outside the door said excitedly:
"It's the Yulin Army!"

"The Yulin Army is here!"

For a moment, everyone outside the hall was extremely excited.

After hearing this, Zhou Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up.
