When the five ministers in the meeting hall heard Sanxu Shangqing's report that Tianzhao Immortal Palace was under siege, they were also shocked. Taizhen Daozun immediately said to Sanxu Shangqing, "Immediately mobilize all the forces in your garrison to Tianzhao Immortal Palace. You must drive out the nobles from all countries outside the Tianzhao Immortal Palace within one hour, otherwise you will be held responsible."
At this time, a Taoist master of the First Purity Realm stood up and said, "Five Taifu, why don't you mobilize the royal troops to enter the city?"
The so-called royal soldiers are the most elite and powerful troops in the entire Da Dao Court, which are under the command of the Six Military Commandery.
The five Daozuns looked towards the person who was speaking and found that it was Yao Hong, the second son of Taishi Daozun, who was also the patriarch of the Yao family in Yujing City.
As for the eldest son of the Taoist Taishi, he went out to other countries, because the five regent Taoists also had their own fiefdoms. The fiefdoms of the five regent Taoists were all ruled by their most outstanding children, and the rest of the children stayed in Yujing City to take charge of the clan.
"It hasn't reached that point yet." Taoist Taizhen said with a smile.
The five ministers were all disciples of the five regents, so they naturally had the confidence to refute Yao Hong's proposal.
"Those nobles and scholars from various countries just want to seek an explanation for the Jingshan Dao Kingdom. They haven't caused any rebellion. Why should we dispatch the royal army in?" Taichong Daozun said lightly.
Seeing his proposal rejected by the two Dao Masters, Yao Hong said, "The five Grand Masters have their own concerns about not sending the royal army into the city. But nothing can happen to my Tianzhao Immortal Palace. If anything happens to a member of my Yao clan, someone will naturally be held responsible."
The five ministers did not respond to Yao Hong's words, but Daoist Master Taizhen still said to Daoist Master Taizhang who was standing beside him, "Send two judges from the Court of Justice to the Tianzhao Immortal Palace. If anyone dares to attack the Tianzhao Immortal Palace, arrest them and imprison them in the Court of Justice."
Taoist Tai Zhang bowed respectfully and said, "Yes."
After hearing the instructions from Taoist Taiyi to Taoist Taizhang, Yao Hong sat back with peace of mind.
Taoist Taizhang sent an imperial edict back to the Ministry of Justice, and soon two senior judges from the Ministry of Justice led their men to the Tianzhao Immortal Palace.
Sanxu Shangqing also bid farewell to the five ministers, turned and left the conference table, and also went to Tianzhao Immortal Palace.
In addition, Taizhen Daozun ordered the Jingzhao Yamen Lingyin "Chan Yezi" Shangqing to go to the Honglutai in person to persuade those people from the Jingshan Dao Kingdom to withdraw from the Honglutai, or at least release Jiang E and her delegation first.
On the other hand, at the Night Patrol Office, although everyone had gone off duty, they were still unable to rest.
As the news of Prince Yunhao's murder spread, especially the news that people from Jingshan Dao Kingdom had stormed the Honglutai, Yujing was shaken for a while, and many people in support of Jingshan Dao Kingdom emerged on the streets everywhere.
Some people had even gathered outside the Night Patrol Mansion. The Night Patrol Mansion gatekeeper who discovered this abnormality immediately reported it to Fang Jian.
After receiving the report, Fang Jian rushed to the gate of the mansion as soon as possible. At this moment, nearly a hundred people had gathered on the street outside the mansion for night patrol.
Fang Jian immediately stepped forward and asked, "Which Dao country are you from?"
When these dozens of people heard Fang Jian's voice, they immediately raised their heads and looked at him. Soon, a young man wearing the seal of a nobleman stood up and said, "We are from the Ganzhao Dao Kingdom."
Fang Jian observed their posture and asked, "Are you also going to support the Pure Good Dao Nation?"
The young man sneered upon hearing this and said, "Don't worry about this."
After saying that, the boy turned around and took a look at the number of people. "One hundred and five, are they all here?"
A national scholar in the back said, "Sir, everyone is here."
The young man nodded with satisfaction, then distributed Three Thousand Dust Powers to everyone, then waved his hand and said, "Come on, follow me to the Honglutai."
Afterwards, the young man led the hundred-plus state officials straight to the Honglutai. Fang Jian watched these people leaving with his brows furrowed.
A moment later, Fang Jian turned back to the Night Patrol Mansion and summoned all the ministers to the Changyou Palace.
"Everyone, please eat, drink and rest with me in Changyou Palace during this period. All expenses will be covered by me." Fang Jian said to the ministers with a smile.
When the nobles heard this, their eyes lit up. Su Kuang even laughed and said, "Since the captain has said so, we have no choice but to take advantage of this."
Everyone laughed, and Fang Jian said to Yu Censhuang, "From today on, prepare more for all the daily expenses in Changyou Palace."
Yu Censhuang nodded and said, "Yes, sir."
Fang Jian then said to the crowd, "Something might happen soon. An imperial decree may come at any moment. Everyone, just eat some fairy fruits and delicacies, drink some fairy tea and wait."
Hearing this, the faces of the ministers immediately became serious, and they nodded and said, "Yes."
As Fang Jian expected, just one hour later, Chan Ye Zi, the Jingzhao Yamen Governor who was ordered to persuade the people of Jingshan Dao Kingdom to withdraw from the Honglutai, returned to the conference table with an anxious look on his face.
Not only did he fail to persuade them, but he also brought back news that shocked everyone present.
That is, Yao Shu, the prince of Ganzhao Dao State, led more than one hundred state officials of Ganzhao Dao State and fought with Jingshan Dao State at Honglutai.
Moreover, the people of Ganzhao Dao Kingdom launched a sneak attack on the people of Jingshan Dao Kingdom after entering the Honglutai, and their attack was very ruthless and efficient. Although there were more than 400 people in Jingshan Dao Kingdom, they dispersed after entering the Honglutai, so soon more than 200 people in Jingshan Dao Kingdom were seriously injured by the people of Ganzhao Dao Kingdom.
The prince of Ganzhao Daoguo, Yao Shu, you can tell from his name that he is a member of the Yao clan.
Moreover, he is not an ordinary member of the Yao family. He is the third son of Yao Cheng, the king of Ganzhao Dao State, and Yao Cheng is the elder brother of Yao Hong who is sitting in the hall.
