Chapter 66 The Rebel Deceives the King 15

The winter snow is falling, and the New Year is approaching.

The streets are covered with red ribbons and colorful decorations, and the people are welcoming the new year with joy.

But in the court, there is a lingering haze.

All this is because three days ago, His Majesty cancelled this year's New Year ceremony on the grounds of being unwell.

This is undoubtedly a very bad signal, indicating that His Majesty's health is getting worse.

Otherwise, His Majesty would definitely not cancel such an important ceremony.

In the Prince Jin's mansion, Prince Jin was in an exceptionally good mood, and the smile on his face was as warm as a spring breeze.

"Three days ago, our people couldn't contact Gu Deli." The staff reported respectfully: "Now the Yangxin Palace is surrounded like an iron barrel, and no news can be sent."

King Jin looked at the slightly uneasy look of the staff and smiled: "Isn't this a good thing?"

The strict guard in the palace, doesn't it mean that Zhou Ji's body is really going to fail?

King Jin's eyes flashed coldly: "The fight of a trapped beast is over!"

Do you really think that everything will be fine if the news is blocked?

"How many days will it take for the Zhennan Army to arrive?" He looked at the staff and asked in a calm voice.

"It will definitely arrive within ten days." Thinking of the 100,000-strong army, the staff's slightly uneasy heart calmed down.

The capital is a small place, and 100,000 troops are enough!

"Okay!" King Jin patted the armrest heavily, his eyes gleaming: "On the Lantern Festival, it's time to take action!"

The staff was shocked: "Your Highness, why are you doing this?"

Now that the person is in poor health, just wait for him to die and quickly take control of the court with the military power, why do you have to force the palace?

King Jin said coldly: "How Zhou Ji took the throne from me that day, I will take it back now."

Let Zhou Ji die of old age?

There is no such good thing in the world!

He wants Zhou Ji to rest in peace in his nine springs.

Feeling the hatred in King Jin's tone, the staff sighed softly, and finally said nothing.

Time passed quickly, and dark clouds rolled over the court, waiting for a thunderclap and a rainstorm to fall.

During the Lantern Festival, the streets were bustling with people, but outside the city, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves.

A hundred thousand troops stopped outside the city wall with great fanfare, cold as iron.

Not long after, the city wall burst open, and countless cavalry rushed into the capital, pouring a bucket of cold water on the peaceful atmosphere.

The people looked at the elite soldiers in armor and fear flashed in their eyes. The older people couldn't help but think of the great changes more than ten years ago.

In fear, the streets were empty in less than a quarter of an hour.

Occasionally, a child's cry rang in the night sky, and the next moment, his mouth was covered, and he dared not make another sound.

King Jin was dressed in silver armor today, looking extraordinarily handsome.

He looked far away in the direction of the capital, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

After today, the supreme person in the Golden Throne Hall will be him.

"Enter the palace!" After a cold shout, the iron cavalry roared forward towards the palace wall. The chaotic hooves of the horses made the guards in the palace look panicked.

"Your Highness Prince Jin, you broke into the palace late at night. Do you know your crime?" The gatekeeper's voice was steady, but he couldn't hide the panic in his eyes.

Prince Jin raised his hand slightly, and the soldiers behind him stopped in an orderly manner.

He looked down at the guards and said in a cold voice: "Life, or death?"

The cold wind blew the general's cheeks red.

He looked at Prince Jin helplessly, and after a while, he slowly put down the spear in his hand and half-knelt on the ground.

The next moment, the hearty laughter of the Prince of Jin was heard in front of the palace gate.

The capital city is in our hands!

Without anyone standing in their way, the group quickly headed towards the palace.

Everywhere they looked was panic. Countless eunuchs stuck their heads out of the cracks in the door and looked outside, but shrank back in fear the moment they were seen.

The Prince of Jin was full of vigor and said to the guards beside him, "Call Gu Deli over."

A twisted excitement flashed across his handsome face: "Let my good brother die knowingly!"

He really looked forward to seeing Zhou Ji's expression when he knew that the people around him had betrayed him.

That would surely make him feel more refreshed than the best wine.

Not long after, Gu Li appeared in front of him with a pale face.

The thin woman was wearing eunuch's clothes, her face was pale and almost transparent, and there was a hint of fatigue in her eyes.

King Jin lifted her chin with a whip and chuckled: "Are you scared?"

Gu Li took a half step back, gritted his teeth and trembled: "King Jin is a man of great talent and strategy. How can I be afraid if I follow him?"

King Jin, your blessing is behind!

King Jin laughed loudly: "Go to see Zhou Ji!"

Wherever the fierce soldiers passed, there was silence.

When everyone came to the Yangxin Palace, they saw that it was pitch black. The eunuch who was holding the lamp had gone somewhere. The huge Yangxin Palace was empty and desolate.

The master of the Yangxin Palace looked like a downtrodden stray dog ​​in this context, which made King Jin feel very happy.

Zhou Ji was ten thousand times worse off today than he was back then!

He kicked the palace door open and saw the room clearly in the faint moonlight.

Zhou Ji was not like a messy and unkempt man.

There was only one explanation for this situation—the servants who served him fled when they faced a disaster and did not care about their old master Zhou Ji.

King Jin drew out his sword and used the tip of the sword to lift the bed curtain.

The next moment, his face changed drastically.

What was on the bed was completely different from what he had imagined.

In his mind, the man who should have looked like a withered skeleton was now full of energy. The moment those black eyes saw him, King Jin actually felt as if he was in a cold and snowy land.

He staggered half a step unconsciously, and the anger in his heart was like a raging fire.

Zhou Ji looked at his appearance, slowly put on the dragon robe, and stepped on the ground barefoot.

His crow-like hair was loosely spread, and there was a faint smile on his face: "Zhou Ting, you are here?"

The pupils of the King of Jin shrank, and he looked at him in disbelief.

"You...you are not sick?" He said in disbelief, and subconsciously turned his head to look for Gu Li.

But he saw that the little eunuch was leaning against the soft couch, covering himself with a thin blanket, curled up into a ball.

The King of Jin couldn't help but feel strange, and shouted in panic: "Gu Deli, what are you doing?"

Gu Li was extremely irritated, and his temples throbbed when he heard the words.

Amid the crazy shouting of King Jin, he suddenly raised his head: "I'm not deaf! Why are you shouting?"

Such a bad look instantly made King Jin even more angry, but he couldn't help but grow fear in his heart.

How could this be?

This is completely different from what he imagined!

The king who should have been bedridden was full of energy, but his insiders looked at him coldly and showed no respect.

King Jin gritted his teeth tightly, not letting the fear in his heart leak out.

A trap, this is a trap from beginning to end!

"Ding, scumbag abuse value +20, cumulative scumbag abuse value 40."

But it's just a trap, so what? He has 100,000 troops outside the city, just waiting for an order to break into the capital. After all, the capital is still his world!
