Chapter 166 New Emperor
Mo Beiyuan set up camp and began to attack the various sub-towns in the capital.
Sitting elegantly and steadily in the suburbs of Beijing, watching the battle.
However, things did not go as smoothly as they did last time.
Duan Ya pushed Mo Beiyuan to the front, but everyone didn't believe that it had nothing to do with her, so some people who originally stood on her side began to turn against her.
These men had only one idea, that is, anyone could be the emperor except a woman.
There were even rumors that even if Mo Beiyuan was the emperor, Duan Ya would not be allowed to be the emperor.
This is very different from the last time.
Mo Beiyuan was destined to fight hard in every battle and win them one by one with his strength.
The longer it takes, the harder it will be, and the greater the chance Li Yeliang will have of fighting back.
Things did not develop as she planned, and Duan Ya began to feel a little panicked.
Shangguan Li comforted her: "Those who oppose us in the capital will disappear soon."
He has arranged a group of killers to enter Beijing, and those who jump high will naturally be the first to die.
Anyone can be an official.
After hearing this, Duan Ya picked up the teacup again.
At this time, Yujun brought in a letter.
Duan Ya opened it and felt disappointed instead of happy. She murmured, "He's dead already! I finally met someone interesting!"
Shangguan Li narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Is your needle reliable?"
"Who can be trusted?" Duan Ya asked.
She quickly put the matter aside and inquired about Mo Beiyuan's progress.
Mo Beiyuan ignored the rumors from the outside world and carried out the Champa operation in an orderly manner with his usual marching style.
It seemed as if he didn't care who would be the emperor, he was just a machine of Champa.
However, everyone felt that he was more ruthless this time, and could even be said to be willing to pay any price.
Except for the civilians, the defenders were given almost no chance to resist, and they were determined to defeat them so that they could not resist.
Mo Haoyu entered the tent holding the letter.
"Now that you're here, get ready to enter the capital."
"Brother, are you in such a hurry? Aren't you planning to surround him until he runs out of ammunition and food..." Mo Haoyu held the letter in his palm.
"No more siege, let's fight quickly and decisively to avoid being attacked from both sides."
Mo Haoyu could only say, "Yes."
In fact, the time is ripe. The auxiliary town is already in the hands of Mo Beiyuan. He mainly wants to wait for the Mo family to enter Yanzhou.
Feng Aoqing led the team not to Sizhou, but to Qizhou. In terms of time, they would actually enter Yanzhou earlier.
Thinking of Feng Aoqing, he asked Mo Haoyu again: "What message did the person sent to Sizhou have?"
Mo Haoyu shook his head. He had not received any letter.
Sizhou and Yanzhou are Mo Beiyuan's rear bases, and are used to contain Lianzhou.
Feng Aoqing chose Qizhou instead of Sizhou. She must have known that the Wei family and the Mo family in Qidong had an old feud, but she still chose there. This made him feel uneasy, so he sent people to Sizhou to investigate, but there was no news.
There is only one possibility, the person is gone.
Mo Beiyuan was actually relieved. Feng Aoqing must have known from somewhere that it was not safe, so she changed the route.
Where else could she go from? She had no secret guards or helpers, so it could only be Han Lang.
Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh.
"Brother..." Mo Haoyu called out with some embarrassment.
"explain!"
"I intercepted the letter over there..."
"read!"
"Brother, you should read it yourself... I'll go and arrange things for tomorrow." Mo Haoyu mustered up his courage, handed over the letter, then turned around and walked out of the tent.
Mo Beiyuan looked at Mo Haoyu's back and unfolded the letter in his hand.
He didn't believe it and read the words on the letter again. Every word was familiar, but he didn't want to understand.
The piece of paper slipped into the brazier at his feet and burned to ashes.
It was a farewell forever, and it was filled with deep hatred.
Mo Haoyu didn't walk far. He looked again and again outside the tent, but didn't dare to go in again.
He saw Mo Beiyuan sitting there, staring at the sand table, for the entire night.
The next day, with red eyes, he simply said, "Let's go."
There is only one sentence about departure, but it moves many places, two of which are close:
One is Mo Beiyuan, who personally led the army into the capital with unstoppable force.
One was the Qingzhou Army that Duan Ya was proud of. They were heading towards the capital, but they did not enter. Instead, they went around the city and headed straight for Duan Ya.
Mo Beiyuan fought his way into the capital, always rushing at the front. He didn't dodge or evade the swords and knives. Except for ordinary people, he showed no mercy to anyone in military uniform. He killed anyone who got in his way, even Buddhas.
This action scared Mo Haoyu half to death. He was afraid that he would lose his life before he could capture the capital, so he found a few experts and protected him desperately, worrying about him a lot.
Finally, he entered the palace and went up to the main hall.
It was not the first time for him to go to the hall, nor was it the first time for him to stand on the dragon path wearing armor and holding a sword.
But that time, Li Yeliang was still hiding outside the capital waiting for the letter that he would capture the capital, just like Duan Ya now.
Later, he stood behind Li Yeliang and was worshipped by everyone, but this time, he stood in front of Li Yeliang.
Li Yeliang, who wanted to abandon the people and escape from the capital, was discovered by the people and reported to the police, which enabled Mo Beiyuan's men to successfully capture him.
"Beiyuan, I shouldn't have distrusted you. Look, I was protecting you and only allowed you to return to Yanzhou, right? So, I'll restore your status as King Yonglin and grant you more land, but not the city! Just ask for anything, and we'll discuss it."
"Should I thank you then?"
"You and I are brothers, why thank you!"
"But your sister's order is not like this!" Mo Beiyuan felt very ironic when he heard the word "brother".
"I know I'm not as good as my sister, but she's a woman! How can she become emperor? I need you, Beiyuan! It's different with you, right?"
"Well, I think so too. She is not up to the task. How about this? Let's have all the important officials come to the palace and we can discuss what to do about this matter."
It will still take time for someone to go down and inform all the officials.
Mo Beiyuan was a little tired, and Mo Haoyu wanted to try whether the dragon throne could be moved. After trying, he found that although it was heavy, it could really be moved. So he found eight people to lift it up and moved it under Mo Beiyuan's buttocks.
He held the sword, pointed at Li Yeliang and sat on the place where the dragon throne was originally placed.
"Our general is tired of killing people, so we'll lend you a chair. It's unfair for you to sit on the ground, but the seat is still yours!"
Li Yeliang didn't dare to speak and could only nod.
All the officials seemed to have been mentally prepared and entered the hall with different expressions.
Those who were not qualified to enter the hall still had to kneel on the platform outside the hall, guarded by Mo Beiyuan's army.
When everyone saw Mo Beiyuan sitting on the dragon throne, some people immediately wanted to stand up and object desperately.
Before he could even utter a word, he was held down.
"Do you think that because I'm not surnamed Li, I'm not worthy of this position? And do you also think that the eldest princess is a woman and therefore can't sit in this position?"
Everyone looked at each other and thought, isn’t this exactly what they are thinking?
"Li Yeliang is incompetent and elegant but lacks virtue, so they are not worthy of being the Emperor of Zhaojing. The seventeenth prince, Li Nanzhou, born to Concubine Li, is both virtuous and capable of governing the country, so he is the right choice for the Emperor of Zhaojing."
"Mo Haoyu, listen to my orders. I will appoint you as the general of the Qingling Guard and lead the Qingling Guard to welcome the new emperor into the capital!" Mo Beiyuan's voice was like a loud bell.
"Yes!" Mo Haoyu answered while wiping Li Yeliang's neck without hesitation.
"Before the new emperor arrives, I will be in charge of Zhaojing's government affairs."
Everyone understood every word, but they were dumbfounded to see four more people in the hall.
They are Concubine Li, the eunuch Fu Jiu who attended the late emperor, the late Prime Minister Ji Fengnian, and the president of Xuanyue Academy Pu Xin.
