"Your Highness, you have been waiting outside the city for three days."
"Please enter the city as soon as possible, lest you miss the auspicious time." Liang Shizhai's aged face showed anxiety.
I thought I had found a prince with little power and planned to give him a hard time, but I never expected him to be so fierce.
They are not willing to compromise at all.
They were stuck outside the city for three whole days.
"Grand Secretary Liang, I have come here to inherit the throne, and I can only ascend the throne through the Dayong Gate and the Fengtian Hall," Yang Qianyuan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Liang Shizhai knew that this was Yang Qianyuan's final line.
They felt helpless; they had chosen the new emperor, and there was no way to back down now.
Therefore, they had no choice but to accept the other party's idea. Although the show of force failed, the other party had no one to rely on in the capital and was ultimately at their mercy.
Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a series of synchronized footsteps, which gave Liang Shizhai a bad feeling.
"Your Highness, we fear thieves may be approaching. Please proceed to the Donghua Gate to enter the city immediately!" Liang Shizhai had no other choice but to use force to take everyone away.
However, Yang Qianyuan smiled and remained silent.
He had barely finished speaking when a ferocious heavy halberd came crashing down upon him.
It flew past Liang Shizhai's scalp and blocked his path.
"How dare you!" a deep, angry roar rang out.
A burly man riding a furious, blood-scaled horse and wearing strange armor arrived in an instant.
As this roar was heard, a terrifying image of a three-headed, six-armed being with a beast-like face and a human body, with a bronze head and an iron forehead, could be vaguely seen in the distance, linked together with the figure.
"You traitors and rebels, how dare you coerce the king? You are truly courting death." The burly man stepped aside, grabbed the heavy halberd, and his eyes were filled with rage.
A terrifying phantom of a monster with a sheep's face, a human body, tiger's teeth, and human claws appeared.
This scene immediately stunned everyone present.
Although Liang Shizhai was also shocked, he was a man who had seen a lot, so he quickly recovered.
"Who are you, daring to do this?" Liang Shizhai shouted immediately.
However, Yang Qianyuan spoke first: "Kaiyang, when will Commander Xiong arrive?"
Yang Qianyuan knew him; he was the second military general brought by Xiong Zhigang. Unlike Murong Ying, who was a wandering swordsman, he was a true battlefield warrior.
It follows a bold and unrestrained approach, exuding unparalleled power.
Therefore, the weapon he used was the Hundred-Shoulder Halberd, and the armor he wore was the Devouring Abyss Armor paired with the Thousand-Army Repelling Bright Light Armor.
It truly is a case of one man holding the pass against ten thousand.
As for the equipment requirements not being met, then of course we'll rely on the talents and skills of Xiong Zhigang, the commander of the expeditionary army, to reduce the equipment requirements.
This caused the previously high demand to decrease.
Most legion-based strategies have similar abilities; otherwise, no amount of resources would be enough to train everyone.
"Your Majesty, the military commissioner will arrive in no more than a quarter of an hour." Sun Kaiyang immediately cupped his hands and said, "The military commissioner is worried that some lawless people might dare to deceive the emperor, so he sent me ahead."
"He specifically instructed that anyone who dares to harm the king should be killed by me."
The moment the words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
Something's not right with this King of Jiaoying.
“Grand Secretary Liang, I think you wouldn’t mind waiting another quarter of an hour,” Yang Qianyuan said softly.
Liang Shizhai wanted to say something, but before he knew it, a sword was pressed against his throat.
Suddenly, a female general appeared beside him like a ghost.
"Miss Murong has also arrived." Yang Qianyuan chuckled.
"Just arrived. Vice General Sun's Bloodscale Horse is much faster than mine," Murong Ying replied, sheathing his sword.
One used light-footed skills to run on the ground, while the other rode a spirit beast warhorse; naturally, the latter was faster.
Liang Shizhai fell completely silent.
This time he didn't dare say a word, because the situation was out of control.
He never expected that Yang Qianyuan would actually have troops under his command.
The problem is that they didn't receive the message at all, nor did they find any clues.
It's important to understand that maintaining such an army would require an astronomical amount of money.
A quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and a vast army of soldiers arrived.
Xiong Zhigang walked ahead and said, "Your Majesty, we are a step late."
Liang Shizhai was horrified as he looked at the army.
This is simply the elite of the elite.
If anyone really has any rebellious intentions, we can take over without any problem.
Yang Qianyuan glanced at Liang Shizhai casually, knowing in his heart that this had intimidated the other party.
Xiong Zhigang naturally arrived at Yang Qianyuan's side via the Tongtian Road.
Yang Qianyuan felt that taking direct action might not be enough to subdue these veteran officials, which is why he took this action.
The reason is simple: once Kumashiro comes to help, he certainly won't be able to stay long.
Chu Danqing's amusement park locations are limited, so Yang Qianyuan can only maximize profits.
After Chu Danqing took up his post as a member of the Dragon Gate of the Bitter Sea, they no longer had any changes in their understanding, and thus knew about the Paradise.
However, there are limitations; they cannot disclose any information about the park.
“It’s not too late.” Yang Qianyuan said, looking at Liang Shizhai: “Grand Secretary Liang, let’s go into the city.”
Seeing that the soldiers had completely surrounded the entire column, Liang Shizhai knew that if his answer wasn't satisfactory, he would likely be hacked to pieces. "Yes, Your Highness," Liang Shizhai said with difficulty, "Proceed to Dayong Gate!"
Dayongmen was the main gate of the capital, while Donghuamen was a side gate.
The procession set off in a grand procession toward the capital.
Sensing something amiss, the capital city gates were closed early.
The main problem is that soldiers have arrived, but the situation is unclear.
Liang Shizhai was pushed to the city gate and made a speech.
This indicates that this is the army of King Jiaoying.
"It seems this group is deliberately trying to embarrass you, Qian Yuan." Xiong Zhigang's expression revealed murderous intent.
The amount of power Yang Qianyuan can control is related to the number of talent growth crystals Chu Danqing can obtain.
This matter is inextricably linked to the interests of all our allies.
"Kaiyang, break through the city!" Xiong Zhigang immediately gave the order.
Upon receiving the order, Sun Kaiyang spurred his horse and charged forward, halberd in hand.
Liang Shizhai also noticed the abnormality, and a look of horror appeared on his face.
It was evident that the massive military force and the warlord were all mobilized by Sun Kaiyang's actions.
The Hundred Bones Halberd struck the city gate, and the six arms of the Military Commander also landed at the same point.
The entire city gate was smashed to pieces on the spot.
“Old man, you still need to practice, huh,” Sun Kaiyang said with a disdainful tone.
This made Liang Shizhai's face turn red.
He wanted to open his mouth and curse, but seeing how unruly these soldiers were, he knew they were really capable of killing.
The massive procession slowly entered the city, and this time no one dared to stop them, proceeding straight to the Fengtian Palace.
Because their journey was slow, the courtiers had already been waiting there.
This is also why Yang Qianyuan walked slowly.
Since we're going to solve this, let's do it all at once.
The throne was empty, and two women, one old and one young, sat to the side.
Yang Qianyuan recognized the other party; the one missing was his cousin's empress, who was also his sister-in-law.
The older one was naturally the Empress Dowager.
The two men were honest and law-abiding, their faces showing helplessness.
It was clearly forced upon him by the ministers.
They knew perfectly well that their husbands/sons had died under suspicious circumstances, but what could they do?
The coronation ceremony began quickly, but it was rather rushed and lacked any grand scale.
But soon, problems arose.
When paying homage to his ancestors, Yang Qianyuan worshipped not his father, but Yang Qianzheng's father.
If he were to bow to his uncle, it would be as if he were being adopted by his uncle.
Yang Qianyuan knew exactly what these people were up to; they were just trying to use etiquette to manipulate him.
This was the original plan, but unexpectedly Yang Qianyuan brought his troops, and there was no time to change these things.
"The will designates me as the successor to the throne, not a prince." Yang Qianyuan said angrily, "General Xiong, investigate for me who is so audacious as to tamper with the proper etiquette."
He sat on the throne and immediately issued the order.
Xiong Zhigang immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
He came here for two reasons.
They helped Yang Qianyuan ascend the throne and carried out a major purge.
Otherwise, how much power could a puppet emperor control even if he ascended the throne?
As soon as the words were spoken, all the soldiers immediately surrounded them, and everyone on the scene except for the Empress and the Empress Dowager was arrested.
Some people started cursing, but no one paid any attention.
This time, everyone came in full force; it was a complete sweep.
"Xiong Jinglue, I hope you can come up with a plan for me today." Yang Qianyuan meant that it needed to be done quickly. 150 Paradise Points per hour, that's 3600 Paradise Points per day.
Xiong Zhigang understood Yang Qianyuan's meaning and immediately nodded: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the truth will surely come out today."
What he meant was that there was definitely no problem, and he guaranteed to uncover a sensational case that would allow you to secure your power.
After saying that, he left directly.
"Your Majesty, before the late Emperor passed away, he left behind a tiger tally and a letter on the way." The Empress Dowager said, taking out a tightly sealed brocade box and continuing, "He said that if the Prince of Jiaoying were to succeed to the throne, it would be handed over to the Emperor."
"The late Emperor also possessed a tiger tally and a ceremonial decree in this palace, which he also mentioned to the Prince of Jiaoying," the Empress added.
Yang Qianyuan understood that this was the family fortune left to him by his cousin.
They represented the military and the intelligence agencies respectively, but no one expected that Yang Qianyuan would directly call on Xiong Zhigang to help him.
He immediately accepted it: "Thank you, sister-in-law and aunt."
After accepting the money, he said coldly, "This matter is not over yet because of my cousin's death."
The two women paused for a moment, seemingly realizing that Yang Qianyuan's rise to power was likely a scheme orchestrated by their husband/son.
Furthermore, the relationship between these two cousins is likely not simple.
"Then my mother-in-law and I will not disturb the Emperor any further. If there is anything inappropriate, the Emperor may come and find my mother-in-law and me," the Empress Dowager said. "My mother-in-law and I can still help you in some way."
"Thank you, Auntie." After saying this, Yang Qianyuan had someone send the two of them back and instructed them to protect them well to prevent any accidents.
