"I know. Also, carry him out."
Yuan Shao nodded and gave his subordinate a look.
At his feet was a corpse that had just lost its life force.
The corpse's name was Xiang Xu, and he was one of the external helpers that the Ten Attendants of the Everlasting Peace relied on.
After the political chaos began, Yuan Shao urgently sought out his uncle, Yuan Kui, who served as the tutor, to discuss it, and wrote a false edict to successfully deceive Minister Xu into coming, and finally killed him.
"Unfortunately, one of them managed to escape.”
Yuan Shao furrowed his brows tightly, feeling a faint uneasiness in his heart.
The person who escaped was called Fan Ling.
Although this person had a good reputation among the people and was famous for being virtuous, he was also forced to interact with the Ten Attendants of the Regular.
However, since he was related to the eunuchs, he had to die!
However, compared to the idiot Xu Xiang, Fan Ling was clearly much smarter. He actually saw through his uncle's forged imperial edict and found an opportunity to slip away.
"Forget it. The first priority now is to break through the palace gates and eradicate the eunuchs!”
Yuan Shao collected his thoughts and turned his gaze back to the tall palace walls.
At this moment, a fast horse was seen rushing over.
"Lord Lieutenant, the situation has changed!"
The knight quickly dismounted and reported the situation at the south gate anxiously.
After hearing that, Yuan Shao was stunned.
"What happened?"
Grand Tutor Yuan Kui, who was not far away, saw his nephew's dazed expression and hurriedly rushed over to ask.
Yuan Shao was stunned for two to three seconds before he came back to his senses. Then, he repeated the report of the knight just now.
"How, how preposterous!"
Yuan Kui had the same reaction as his nephew, his expression dull.
Yuan Shu and Wu Kuang were captured!
The Southern Gate Army's offensive had collapsed, and they had been incorporated. They were rushing over with the Yulin Royal Guards!
How could this be!
Regarding this sudden turn of events, the Yuan Family uncle and nephew were momentarily speechless.
No wonder they were so surprised.
The culprit behind all this was His Majesty the Emperor!
That's right, it was that submissive, puppet-like young emperor!
"Uncle, what should we do now?" Yuan Shao asked anxiously.”
Yuan Kui opened his mouth but was unable to say anything.
I don't know either!
Who would have expected such a situation!
The Yuan family's uncle and nephew were at a loss.
With the military strength they had now, let alone the help invited by the Ten Attendants, they could even face the super warlords outside the capital without fear.
But the one who came was the emperor!
Even though the imperial power had declined to the point of no return, His Majesty was still His Majesty and could still represent the highest authority in the world.
As long as the Yuan family wanted to survive in the imperial court, they would never dare to challenge the imperial power.
Just as everyone was struggling to come up with a good plan, suddenly, loud footsteps and the sound of armor clashing came from afar.
Two teams of fully armed warriors were attacking from the wall.
Yuan Shao's subordinates who were attacking the palace gates were all stunned, involuntarily stopping their attack.
The eunuch, who was his opponent, also gave up resisting.
Just a moment ago, the remnants of the Ten Attendants guarding the palace wall had learned of the death of their leaders, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. Their fighting spirit had instantly collapsed.
"This, what should we do?"
Cold sweat broke out on Yuan Shao's forehead.
Although he was also an outstanding general and had a high level of political attainment, he had a fatal shortcoming.
He lacked quick wit.
Facing this sudden and huge change, his mind was already in a daze.
His uncle Yuan Kui was not any better. In such a short period of time, he could not think of any way to deal with it.
Suddenly, there was a creak.
The north palace gate, which he had not been able to break through for a long time, opened from the inside.
Immediately after, Liu Bian led a group of Yulin Royal Guards out.
"Lu Zhi!"
Yuan Kui looked at one of the slightly aged figures and couldn't help but glare, as if he already understood what had happened.
Yuan Shao's gaze turned towards the Imperial Forest Lieutenant General Huan Dian and cast a questioning gaze.
Unfortunately, this colleague who once belonged to the General's Residence was like a stranger at this moment, completely ignoring his gaze.
Opposite him.
Lu Zhi saw the Emperor giving him a look and quickly nodded.
"Take down all the rebels!" he shouted.”
In an instant, many soldiers rushed forward aggressively.
And although Yuan Shao's subordinates were numerous and their strength was clearly stronger, they did not have the slightest strength to resist at this moment.
The reason was simple.
His Majesty the Emperor was here!
Even the most uncultured soldier now understood that if he retaliated, he would immediately be charged with treason and be doomed!
Yuan Shao looked at the young emperor in a daze, then immediately reacted and knelt on the ground with a thud.
Yuan Kui hesitated for a moment before kneeling down as well.
Although he was the Grand Tutor, whose status was even higher than the three dukes, and usually did not need to bow to the Emperor in court, it was best to be sensible in the current situation.
The air began to solidify, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.
Yuan Shao lowered his head, not wanting His Majesty to see his unconcealable ugly expression.
At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a figure slowly walking towards him.
Yuan Shao unconsciously raised his head and discovered that the person who had come was actually His Majesty!
"Your Majesty…"
Yuan Shao was just about to bow again.
Suddenly, a slender black shadow struck like lightning!
"Pa!"
A heavy whip ruthlessly whipped Yuan Shao's face!
