The generals present were all dumbfounded; it seemed that the Prince of Yan was truly enraged this time.

However, many ambitious people harbor hidden worries.

The Prince of Yan's actions may have vented his anger, but such behavior is unbecoming of a vassal king and will also discourage his soldiers.

"I was loyal and devoted, yet I've ended up like this. Fine, very well!" Wei Jinhui glared at Chen Yong, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

"Drag him down and chop him into mincemeat!" Chen Yong shouted.

The following day, a group of soldiers stormed into Wei Jinhui's residence and surrounded it completely.

Regardless of age or gender, they were all arrested by the soldiers of the Prince of Yan's mansion.

"Your Highness, Wei Jinhui is a famous general of the Great Jin Dynasty and has rendered meritorious service to the country. If he is to be dealt with, we should first consult His Majesty and await his decision."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianzhao immediately led a group of civil officials to the scene.

"Wei Jinhui is dead, and his family will not escape punishment either. I will report to His Majesty after the matter is dealt with. Get out of the way!"

Chen Yong was filled with resentment and only wanted revenge, completely ignoring Zhang Xianzhao's advice.

Soon, Wei Jinhui's entire army was escorted to a brothel.

Both men and women suffered humiliation at the hands of their subordinates.

Including Wei Jinhui's wife, mother, aunt, and sister-in-law, all of them were in a terrible state.

After finishing, Chen Yong was still not satisfied and actually led his troops to the residence of Wu Didi, the Vice Minister of Works.

Wu Didi was a man of the Prince of Jin. After the Prince of Jin was imprisoned, she switched her allegiance to Chen Yong.

Upon hearing that Chen Yong wanted people, he hurriedly greeted him respectfully, saying, "Your Highness, that slut kept male lovers, and then disappeared. I don't know where he is."

"Are you trying to cover for me? It's all because of you that I've ended up like this. Send the order that the Wu family, like the Wei family, be sent to a brothel."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Didi's expression changed drastically. She had only one thought in her mind: the Prince of Yan has gone mad.

"Your Highness, we are all your subordinates, loyal to you. Why do this? This action will cause an uproar among the Prince of Jin's officials," Wu Didi advised.

But Chen Yong couldn't listen to any of that now. He was about to die and didn't care about anything else; all he wanted was revenge.

He even harbored the idea of ​​usurping the throne.

"Dare to talk back? Take him away!" Chen Yong said coldly, "May he die with his belly stuffed with dog excrement!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Didi was taken away.

Since the King of Yan had already given the order, the people below dared not disobey.

The only option was to take Wu Didi away and force him to eat dog feces until he ate himself to death.

After Wei Jinhui and Wu Didi died, their entire family was soon subjected to humiliation.

After returning to his residence, Chen Yong immediately instructed his trusted generals: "Immediately send 200,000 troops into Sizhou to surround the capital."

Xu Chu, one of Chen Yong's generals and also his father-in-law, immediately replied upon hearing this:

"Your Highness, those are the large army guarding the north. If they return to the capital without an imperial decree, it would be tantamount to treason!"

Chen Yong narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Now that things have come to this, are you still hesitating? If you hesitate any longer, we'll all die in the capital!"

Xu Chu then realized that Chen Yong was not crazy, but was actually planning to raise an army to seize the throne.

Even his trusted generals were allowed to rise up and seize power by Chen Yong.

However, Chen Yong was wary of the Jin emperor and was reluctant to raise an army.

Now, Chen Yong has contracted multiple diseases and knows that he doesn't have long to live, so he is no longer afraid of anything.

"Yes, sir." Xu Chu bowed.

That night.

Soldiers poured into the brothel.

Wei Jinhui and Wu Didi's clansmen were all among them.

There were also some customers from lower-class areas, coming and going in a steady stream.

Because of Chen Yong's orders, the lower classes also wanted to experience the life of the powerful and wealthy.

The main attraction is that it's free.

Therefore, it quickly caused a sensation.

"It turns out that the women in General Wei and Lord Wu's clans are so charming. We are only able to enjoy this because of the Prince of Yan's generosity."

These lower-ranking soldiers actually didn't have much loyalty to their generals.

They'll change their attitude instantly if they fall on hard times and can take advantage of the situation.

As for those trusted generals, they were filled with humiliation.

They even rebelled.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yong flew into a rage, shouting, "Anyone who dares to resist will be executed! These are all Wei Jinhui's trusted confidants; leave no one alive!"

"promise."

With Wei Jinhui dead, these generals had no way to resist.

Moreover, their subordinates were all in the north, and in the capital, Chen Yong could kill them as easily as crushing an ant.

"Haha, once the army arrives in the capital, I will tear that beggar to pieces!" Chen Yong's face turned ferocious as he shouted.

However, the rebellion was carried out in secret.

Chen Yong guessed that the Jin Emperor would definitely throw him into a death row for this, but would absolutely not dare to kill him.

Because he had 200,000 heavily armed soldiers under his command, who were extremely loyal to him.

Moreover, the Great Jin Dynasty has not yet recovered from the natural disaster.

The Jin emperor could never have imagined that he would dare to rebel at this time!

"Your Highness, I have already issued the order that the army will reach Sizhou in fifteen days. Moreover, all the officials in the surrounding area are our people, and there is absolutely no way the capital will know!" Xu Chuchong and Chen Yong said.

If this mission succeeds, he will have rendered meritorious service to the emperor.

In addition, Chen Yong didn't have many years left to live, and after his death, he would inevitably pass the throne to the young emperor, who was his grandson.

At that time, he will be able to wield immense power.

At the same time, Wei Jinhui and Wu Didi's wife, mother, and aunt all died tragically day and night, and the news shocked the capital.

Zhang Xianzhao and others severed ties with Chen Yong.

"The Prince of Yan is foolish; he has slaughtered high-ranking officials of the court—a capital offense!"

"We must report back to His Majesty immediately and await his judgment."

Upon hearing this news in the Hall of State Affairs, Emperor Jin was furious.

"Outrageous! How dare a mere prince kill a court official? Does this empire belong to me, or to him?"

"Guards, summon the Prince of Yan!"

Soon, Chen Yong was brought into the hall.

Faced with Emperor Jin's questioning, Chen Yong, filled with anger, said, "Father, Wei Jinhui has committed an atrocity by sending me a woman suffering from multiple diseases, causing me to contract these illnesses. If I don't kill him, where is the dignity of the imperial family?"

"Who gave you such a hobby? With personnel matters controlled by exchanging women in the military, it's no wonder problems like this arise!"

"General Wei and Minister Wu, whatever their fates, should be dealt with by me. You, a mere prince, dare to indiscriminately kill court officials. Do you know what crime this is?"

Emperor Jin looked at Chen Yong with cold eyes and said in a cold voice.

"Death sentence!" Chen Yong feigned sorrow to lessen Emperor Jin's suspicion, saying, "Your Majesty, my life is nearing its end. I beg you to grant me death!"

These words struck a nerve with the Jin Emperor.

As Chen Yong said, he was nearing the end of his life, and killing him at this time would only earn him the infamy of murdering his own children.

Now, he has killed two princes, Chen Feng and Chen Zhi.

Killing Chen Yong would likely cause unrest among the northern army.

After a moment's thought, Emperor Jin said coldly, "Guards, throw this rebellious son into the death row and await his fate!"

At this point, Zhang Xianzhao and his group all expressed their desire to execute Chen Yong in order to rectify the court's affairs.

The aristocratic civil service group can take sides, but if someone openly breaks the rules of the court, they will never be supported.
