Chapter 141 Rebellion

Yan Fengxiao narrowed his eyes.

“It’s really a big deal.”

The value of this dragon robe alone is quite high.

In addition, it took two or three years to prepare, and someone had been secretly planning for a long time to target him.

The person with such a mind must be the head of the Ren family, the prime minister of the current dynasty.

Even though he had been stripped of his military power and trapped in the imperial city four years ago, there were still people who secretly regarded him as a formidable enemy.

Yan Xuanjing raised the corner of his lips and said, "Prince Dingbei, you don't need to explain anything. We have all the evidence, so whatever you say is useless!"

Yan Fengxiao raised his eyebrows, his eyes sharp.

"This dragon robe is well made. I accept it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he actually picked up the dragon robe in front of everyone and handed it to a subordinate behind him.

The smile on Yan Xuanjing's face suddenly disappeared.

He stared at Yan Fengxiao fiercely: "What do you mean by that?"

Yan Liuchen was also a little confused. He glanced at Yan Fengxiao, then at the dragon robe. For some reason, a very bad thought suddenly arose in his mind.

Could it be that Yan Fengxiao really wanted to...

He lowered his voice and consoled him, "Yan Fengxiao, things haven't reached that point yet. If you didn't do this, I will definitely clear your name..."

Yan Fengxiao nodded slightly to Yan Liuchen.

"Thank you for your kindness, Second Prince, but... I don't need it."

His action of accepting the dragon robe said it all, and therefore, the eyes of countless people present when looking at Yan Fengxiao changed.

Some of them knew the truth and were already on the side of the eldest prince.

As for the others who didn't know the truth and had always admired Yan Fengxiao, their expressions were extremely complicated.

Some generals didn't even understand why, and their expressions were a little cracked, as if their faith had collapsed.

"My Lord, why are you doing this?"

However, compared to the various emotions of grief and indignation among these people, Yan Fengxiao didn't care about their opinions at all.

If he cared, he wouldn't have come this far alone.

Among the civil and military officials, some might be hostile to him, mock him, or admire him, but he didn't care. Compared to these, his own purpose was the most important.

"King Dingbei, it's not too late to turn back now. As long as you sincerely repent, considering your previous contributions, you can still save your life!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, please don't go down the wrong path. That is a dead end!"

"Hand over the emperor. How is the emperor now?"

"Yan Fengxiao, you are guilty of heinous crimes and attempted rebellion. You deserve the death penalty. Release the emperor immediately!"

Yan Fengxiao looked around at the ministers, observing the expressions on their faces.

He looked calm and composed as always, but the words that came out of his thin lips were chilling.

"Rebellion?"

It turned out that this was the crime that the Ren family had charged him with.

When Yan Xuanjing saw that all the ministers were now on his side, the smile in his heart grew wider.

His expression remained silent as he glared at Yan Fengxiao, "Now that things have come to this, this prince does not want to see the Southern Yan Kingdom lose such a good general. However, you have ulterior motives and are ambitious. This prince cannot let you stay. Come, capture him, and the rest of you, accompany this prince to rescue my father!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Yan Liuchen's expression suddenly changed: "The matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet, everyone, please don't be impulsive!"

However, now even the officials standing on his side showed signs of hesitation.

"Second Prince, I'm afraid Yan Fengxiao is really going to rebel. Faced with this situation, he didn't even open his mouth to explain!"

"What else is there to explain? The evidence is irrefutable, the witnesses and the evidence are all there. His explanation is just a sophistry!"

"Don't just stand there, hurry up and save the emperor..."

The entire hall was in chaos in an instant.

Yan Xuanjing gave an order, and the guards outside the door immediately rushed in and surrounded Yan Fengxiao.

Being able to mobilize so many guards to protect the imperial palace, Yan Xuanjing must have put in a lot of effort during this period.

Commander Li of the Imperial Guard had been guarding the Yangxin Palace the entire time, so Yan Xuanjing certainly couldn't move.

However, he was still able to win over some of the small leaders.

If he can't win him over, then he uses threats. Yan Xuanjing has used every possible means to achieve his current situation.

After preparing for so long, Yan Xuanjing had only one goal, which was to capture Yan Fengxiao in a natural way. As long as he was dead, Yan Liuchen would not have to be feared!

Yan Xuanjing looked at Yan Fengxiao, who was surrounded and had no way to escape, and a smile could not be stopped from appearing on his face.

"Get it!"

At a command, the guards who obeyed his orders rushed forward in an instant.

They also knew how powerful Yan Fengxiao was, and they never thought that Yan Fengxiao would surrender.

Yan Fengxiao looked at the sharp long sword coming towards him. He just turned slightly sideways, raised his hand and hit the opponent's wrist, then snatched the long sword away and slashed it horizontally. Screams were heard, and one person's throat had been cut.

The knife light seemed to turn into a net, appearing for only a moment, like a fleeting moment of beauty.

The few guards who were at the front had already fallen in a pool of blood, and were unable to fight back against Yan Fengxiao.

Yan Xuanjing's pupils suddenly contracted.

He subconsciously took a few steps back and hid himself behind the ministers.

Guards kept rushing in. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people in the entire hall surrounded Yan Fengxiao, but no one dared to rush forward first.

The corpses were lying on the ground, the blood flowing out was still warm. There were some bloodstains on Yan Fengxiao's cheeks, which made his already sharp and handsome face even more fierce and murderous.

He was a killer who had fought his way through the battlefield, unlike those generals who usually only commanded battles in the rear and talked about military strategy on paper.

Most of the time, he would lead the way, using his powerful strength to tear through the defense and let everyone behind him follow him!

This is also the main reason why many soldiers and generals who have followed Yan Fengxiao are extremely submissive to him... Taking the heads of enemy generals among thousands of soldiers and horses is not a legend for him, but a reality!

Yan Fengxiao's gaze seemed to penetrate the crowd and look at Yan Xuanjing.

Then he took a step forward, and the hundreds of people surrounding him actually retreated step by step.

In this scenario, if hundreds of people rushed forward, even Yan Fengxiao would not be able to defeat them.

After all, he is a mortal and is still at a disadvantage when outnumbered.

However, his aura was so overwhelming that many imperial guards in the capital who had never been to the battlefield felt their calves trembling.

They knew that no matter whether Yan Fengxiao would be killed by the human wave tactics in the end, the first one to rush forward would definitely die.

The current situation did not look like they had surrounded Yan Fengxiao, but rather, they were all surrounded by Yan Fengxiao...

Yan Xuanjing's eyes turned red with anxiety. He saw that the plan was about to succeed, but these guys were afraid of death.

He shouted loudly, "Everyone, come and kill him for me. Whoever takes Yan Fengxiao's head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and promoted to the third rank!"

Yan Fengxiao pointed his long sword at the ground and looked at Yan Xuanjing deeply.

"Since the eldest prince says that I am rebelling, then I will... rebel."
