On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 368 Changes in Renshou Palace

"This is true!"

Yang Guang stood up, his face turned pale.

Yang Su glanced at Yu Shiji who was following him. Yu Shiji hurriedly stepped forward and answered:

"Reporting to His Majesty the Crown Prince, this matter is absolutely true. His Majesty's oral instructions were passed down by Liu Shangshu and Yuan Shilang, and the imperial edict was written by the lower officials themselves."

Yang Guang felt his eyes go dark and almost fainted.

The Crown Princess Xiao who accompanied Yang Guang to the Dabao Palace quickly supported him and comforted him:

"The saint's move may be because the father misses his son and wants to see him before he dies."

Yang Guang raised his hand to indicate that he could stand firm. After Xiao let go, Yang Guang said angrily:

"My father ordered me to guard Yong, a common man. If I really want to say goodbye to him, I only need to send someone to the Dabao Palace to send a message, and I will send Yang Yong to Renshou Palace. There is no need for Liu Shu and Yuan Yan to act sneakily.

"Besides, since it is a farewell, there is no reason to only teach common people to be brave and not call them to show off."

After saying that, Yang Guang looked at Yang Su and continued:

"Mr. Yang, what happened today was unexpected by you and me, but years of hard work must not be ruined in one day. Please teach me how to act, Mr. Yang."

Yang Su had already had an idea on the way here, and he said in a deep voice:

"For the current plan, instead of sitting back and waiting for death, it is better to strike first.

"The saint is ill in bed and cannot take care of his affairs, so he has entrusted all state affairs to the prince.

"The prince might as well falsely pass on the edict, arrest Liu Shu and Yuan Yan, and order the soldiers of the East Palace to stay in Weirenrenshou Palace to isolate internal and external news."

This was undoubtedly an attempt to launch a palace coup, but Yang Guang did not hesitate at all. He immediately nodded and said:

"Just follow what Yang Xiang said."

Then he looked at Yu Shiji who came to report the news. When he was still the vassal king, he and Qin King Yang Jun recruited two brothers, Yu Shiji and Yu Shinan, at the same time. However, the Yu family brothers neither dared to offend Jin Wang Yang Guang, nor did they dare to offend Jin Wang Yang Guang.

King Qin Yang Jun was unhappy and fled Daxing.

Yang Guang said to Yu Shiji:

"You have contributed to Gu, and Gu will not treat you badly."

Yu Shiji suppressed his excitement and immediately kowtowed to Yang Guang to thank him.

Soon, Yang Su left the Dabao Palace and went straight to the East Palace with Yang Guang's forged edict from the emperor.

When he arrived, Yu Wenshu was leading the East Palace guards to stop Liu Shu and Yuan Yan outside the palace gate.

The patience of the two seemed to have reached its peak. Liu Shu was furious and scolded the guards of the East Palace:

"Yu Wenshu openly resisted the decree, do you want to join him in killing the nine tribes?"

The guards in the East Palace all wanted to retreat. Seeing this, Yu Wenshu hurriedly refuted:

"If the saint wanted to see the common people brave, he had already been summoned to the palace when the ministers were saying goodbye. How could he wait until now?

"This is clearly Liu Shu and Yuan Yan who are pretending to pass the edict and intending to do something evil!"

Then he shouted again:

"We have been greatly favored by the prince, how can we be deceived by them!"

Yuan Yan was anxious. He spread out the edict, showed it to everyone, and said loudly:

"You'll know if it's true or not when you see it."

However, before the soldiers of the East Palace could see the seal on the edict, Yang Su's powerful voice sounded from behind Yuan Yan:

"Liu Shu, Yuan Yan issued an edict, and I followed the sage's edict to capture the two thieves!"

When Yuan Yan and Liu Shu heard Yang Su's voice, their hearts went cold. When they looked back, it was Yang Su standing on the carriage, holding up an edict.

Yuwenshu was overjoyed and immediately urged:

"Why don't you hurry up and catch the thief!"

The guards from the East Palace immediately swarmed up and captured Liu Shu and Yuan Yan.

Liu Shu couldn't stop struggling, shouting at the top of his lungs:

"Yang Su corrects the edict! I am the one."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Wenshu removed his jaw. This scene made Yuan Yan's two penises fight.

Yang Su jumped off the carriage and ignored Liu Shu's resentful gaze. After checking Yang Guang's token with Yuwen Shu, he said:

"The Crown Prince has ordered that the East Palace Guards immediately go to Renshou Palace to guard the place!"

Yu Wenshu knew that the matter was urgent, so he did not ask what happened in the palace and hurriedly dispatched generals.

Yang Su took the edict from Yuan Yan's hand, read it, showed a sarcastic smile, and burned the edict that Yang Jian released Yang Yong and summoned him to the palace in front of Liu Shu and Yuan Yan.

Liu Shu was still there silently cursing, Yuan Yan was shaking like chaff, but these were not important anymore.

Yang Su sent his cronies to take the two men into custody, and then he led the East Palace Guards Yu Wenshu, Zuo Zongwei led Guo Yan, and the Crown Prince's right concubine Zhang Heng and others led the East Palace Guards towards Renshou Palace.

A large number of heavily armed soldiers rushed to the south main entrance of Renshou Palace, Yongguang Gate, which also overwhelmed the Yongguang Gate guard.

From the opponent's flag, armor, and Yongguangmen, it is clear that this is the East Palace Guards, but what are they doing here at this moment? Is it possible that they are plotting rebellion.

Yang Su had already abandoned his carriage and rode on horseback. He came to Yongguang's gate, took out another edict, held it high and shouted:

"I am Zuo Pu She Yang Su, and I was ordered to lead the East Palace Guards to take over the guards of Renshou Palace!"

The guard also saw Yang Su's appearance clearly and finally breathed a sigh of relief knowing that the other party was indeed Yang Su.

The hanging basket sent the edict to the top of the city. After confirming its authenticity, the Yongguang gate guard wanted to open the door immediately, but a close aide said doubtfully:

"How could your Majesty transfer the East Palace Guards to guard Miyagi City?"

The gatekeeper of Yongguang said in a deep voice:

"This is obviously the prince's order. Maybe something happened in the palace."

The confidant was shocked and whispered:

"Could it be that the saint died?"

The gatekeeper of Yongguang remained silent.

In his opinion, there is only one explanation. After the emperor died, the prince felt insecure before ascending the throne, so he transferred his own bodyguards to stay in the palace. This is a normal situation.

As for the prince impatiently launching a coup when the emperor was about to die, it is a fantasy.

Without further delay, the guard of Yongguang Gate immediately led everyone down the tower, opened the Yongguang Gate, and handed over the defense to the soldiers of the East Palace.

After Yang Su led the soldiers to occupy Yongguang Gate, Yu Wenshu was left behind. Zhang Heng commanded and dispatched and took over the defense of the other gates. He and Zhang Heng led a group of soldiers to the Dabao Hall to join Yang Guang.

Yang Jian took charge of the power of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and relied on Zheng to translate and Liu Fang came to correct the imperial edict after the death of Zhou Xuan Emperor Yuwen Yun.

Unexpectedly, when he was about to die, his son Yang Guang would follow suit and launch a palace coup through false edicts.

Yu Wenshu, Zhang Heng and others held the edict in hand and peacefully handed over the imperial troops guarding the gates of Renshou Palace without any conflict.

There were many palace guards who speculated about Yang Jian's death. After all, Yang Jian had already said goodbye to all the officials. The generals of the imperial army thought that Yang Guang was keeping secrets. They had no intention of treason, so they naturally cooperated in the whole process.

Along the way, Yang Su led the soldiers and passed by eunuchs and palace maids who were shouting in terror.

But when Yang Guang, who was standing outside the Dabao Hall, saw Yang Su, Zhang Heng and others coming, he felt that the sound of the beetle leaves rubbing against each other was the most pleasant.

He knew that the fact that this guard was able to come to the Dabao Palace proved that the entire Renshou Palace was under his control.
