No one had expected that the Emperor would behead the Yulin Royal Guards without any explanation!
Looking at the bloody head, everyone's expression changed.
Especially the Yulin Royal Guards.
Each of them had a dull expression on their faces. Clearly, they had yet to recover from the shock.
Lu Zhi took a deep breath. He knew that now was the time for him to stand up.
He took a step forward and stood beside Liu Bian, shouting,""The Yulin Royal Guards came late to save you, so they should be punished according to their crimes.”
"Hualala!"
In an instant, the sound of armor clashing rang out.
Immediately after, everyone from the Yulin Royal Guards showed a panicked expression and knelt down in unison.
Lu Zhi had a high prestige in the court. Even the Royal Guards, the Yulin Royal Guards, respected him.
Of course, Minister Lu's action was to strengthen the Emperor's prestige, which was equivalent to a catalyst.
What truly terrified the Yulin Royal Guards was the youth in the black imperial robe!
Ever since the Young Emperor had succeeded to the throne, as the struggle between the consorts and eunuchs had intensified, the existence and status of the imperial power had fallen.
In addition, the Imperial Forest Guards had been corrupted internally. As a result, the army, which was supposed to be the emperor's staunchest supporter, had gradually lost respect for the emperor.
However, after witnessing Liu Bian's thunderous methods, their reverence for the imperial power could not help but rise again!
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The faces of the Yulin Royal Guards turned pale. Everyone was extremely nervous.
Liu Bian was also very excited at this moment. Due to the fact that the weapon smelting technology of the Three Kingdoms era was not mature, if it was not for the fact that he had studied anatomy for a few years in his previous life, and the quality of the military officer's sword was good enough, it would be very difficult for him to cut off the other party's head with one sword.
"Good, good, this act was very successful.”
Liu Bian took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
At this moment, another group of Yulin Royal Guards ran over.
When they arrived, the leader ordered all the soldiers to kneel on the ground. Then, he knelt down as well.
"I came late to save you!" he said in fear. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The memories of this body told Liu Bian that the person who had come was Huan Dian of the Huan family of Pei Country, and also the highest officer of the Yulin Royal Guards.
From the historical records that he had read in his previous life, he knew that this person was both civil and military. His ability and moral character were excellent, and his loyalty to the royal family could not be said. He could definitely be considered a virtuous official.
"I remember that Huan Dian only recently took over as a lieutenant general of the Imperial Forest. He has almost no control over the Imperial Forest Army, so you can't blame him completely.”
Liu Bian thought for a moment and decided not to pursue the other party's fault for the time being.
It wasn't because he felt that Huan Dian was excusable.
Firstly, he needed someone to lead the Royal Guards.
Secondly, Huan Dian and the gang of red-eyed killers outside belonged to the He Jin Group. With him around, he would be able to pacify this political chaos faster.
Thinking of this, Liu Bian looked down at Huan Dian who was kneeling on the ground and said expressionlessly,""Zhen will spare your life for the time being and allow you to atone for your sins! Quickly gather the imperial guards in the palace and suppress the rebellion with me!”
"Yes! We will obey Your Majesty's orders!"
Huan Dian hurriedly bowed and accepted the order.
Like the other officers, he was curious as to why the emperor was in charge of the situation.
However, now was not the time to think about this.
"Very good, we finally have soldiers.”
After Liu Bian gained control of the Yulin Royal Guards, he began to think about what other forces he could take over.
His target was naturally the army guarding the palace.
According to the system of the Eastern Han Empire, the guards of the palace were mainly in charge of the Wei Wei, Guanglu Xun, and Zhijinwu.
Among them, the Imperial Guards were in charge of the Imperial Guards, and the Yulin Royal Guards were under his control.
The duties of the guards were similar to the imperial palace patrol.
Zhijinwu was in charge of the guards and honor guards when the emperor went out.
According to his body's original memories, the three major positions were held by Zhao Qian from the Zhao family of Shu Prefecture, the former general of chariots and horses, Zhang Wen, and Hu Muban, who was ranked as the Eight Chefs of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The first two were loyal officials in historical records, while the latter's attitude was unknown.
"Are the Imperial Guards and Guards currently in the palace?”
Liu Bian asked.
Lu Zhi immediately replied,"Your Majesty, the two lords are not in the palace at the moment."”
Liu Bian nodded and thought,'Damn, looks like I can only use the Yulin Royal Guards for now.'”
Although he was the emperor now, in theory, everyone had to listen to him.
However, in view of the cowardly behavior of the original owner of the body, it was obviously unrealistic to directly obtain the control of the other two guards in a short period of time without the assistance of Zhao and Zhang.
"Forget it, let's do it directly!"
Liu Bian looked at the palace gate in the distance and clenched his fists.
