Today's events were like a dream to most people present.
First, Ling Chen had saved the Empress Dowager with lightning speed, and because of his achievements, he had been granted the title of a Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Before everyone could be envious and jealous, they saw him boldly kill the Brocade Guard's Thousand Households Liu in public. Then, he took out Princess Li Xiu, his trump card, and slandered Xu Xianchun, the governor of the North Town, for betraying the country and attempting to kill the emperor.
Most importantly, the Emperor believed him.
Therefore, Wei Zhongxian and Xu Xianchun's foster father did not dare to plead for mercy. They could only watch their godson be convicted while the two supervisors of the West Chamber sat and watched the show. The cabinet elders did not care about them.
As for the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa's Iron-Braved Divine Marquis…he actually recommended Ling Chen to the Emperor, and in the name of a Thousand Households, he took charge of the Northern Garrison's Office!
In just one day, he had gone from being a small flag officer of the Brocade Guard to a general flag officer, a hundred households, and a thousand households. Now, he was going to take charge of the Northern Military Bureau and become the second most important person in the Brocade Guard?!
Judging from the glorious history of this person stepping on the South Town Governor Ying Wuqiu, when he killed Xu Xianchun, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Tian Ergeng, did not even dare to let out a fart.
What was the difference between this and controlling the entire Embroidered Uniform Guards?
Could it be that the record for the fastest promotion since the founding of the Ming Dynasty was about to be broken today?!
"Has the Divine Overlord gone mad, or has the world gone mad?!!”
Everyone looked at Zhu Bujue in disbelief. Then, Xu Xianchun started to run away. Before anyone could react, they saw the stunning blade!
Oh no!
Most people didn't even see Ling Chen use his blade!
However, Zhu Bujue, the three secret agents of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, and the experts of the East and West Depots saw it!!
In an instant, everyone's gazes froze.
" What a fast saber!!"
"What a ruthless person!"
Almost every face could not help but show shock and horror.
Among them, Zhu Budian and Guihai Yidao finally understood. How could this person, who was just a small flag of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, be able to subdue Ba Dao and serve him?
Cut the string three times, people can not see.
If someone sees it, it's like a broken string.
Xu Xianchun should feel honored to die under this blade!
Poor Xu Xianchun. If he knew what Guihai Yidao was thinking at this moment, he didn't know if he would crawl back from hell and fight him to the death.
The atmosphere fell into a sudden silence.
The Emperor's mouth was wide open as he stared blankly at the two halves of Xu Xianchun's body that were separated by a distance. It was only after a long time that he finally reacted.
A hint of joy silently appeared in the depths of his eyes.
"Ling Qianhu's martial arts are actually so high. Previously, Yun Luo said that you killed Wu Wan with a single slash. I thought that Wu Wan was too weak!”
He did not show any emotion on the surface, but he saw the shock on the faces of Zhu Budian, Wei Zhongxian, Cao Zhengchun, and the others. The joy in his heart grew stronger.
He also felt that Zhu Bujue's suggestion was strange.
However, he nodded without hesitation."Since Imperial Uncle also thinks that Ling Qianhu is worthy of the great responsibility, and now that Xu Xianchun is dead, the Northern Garrison Commissioner cannot be left alone. I will do as you say and confer Ling Chen the title of Commissioner!”
As soon as he said this, the entire place finally could not help but clamor.
The current commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Tian Ergeng, couldn't suppress the grievance in his heart and walked out.
"Your Majesty…"
He had just said two words when Pei Lun suddenly shouted,"Lord Tian, your matter-"
The heavens took pity on her, and Pei Lun's tone was exactly the same as when Ling Chen had slandered Xu Xianchun.
Especially when he spoke, his eyes were slightly narrowed and his expression was one of a smile and a smile. That appearance and expression scared Tian Ergeng to the point of peeing his pants on the spot!
With a thump, his legs suddenly trembled and he knelt down unconsciously. He kowtowed to the Emperor and said,""Your Majesty, this lowly subject is truly loyal to Your Majesty and the Imperial Court. I have absolutely no intention of rebelling. I truly know nothing about Xu Xianchun's treasonous actions…"
As his voice spread, everyone present found it unbelievable that he was crying.
The Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, a third-grade official of the imperial court, was crying in front of everyone.
His eyes were red, and his face was running with snot. He looked extremely miserable and pitiful.
But at this moment, Pei Lun looked at him curiously."Lord Tian, what are you doing? This humble servant wants to tell the Emperor that your matter has nothing to do with Xu Xianchun. You are absolutely loyal to the Imperial Court and are filled with enthusiasm.”
He was most afraid of a sudden silence.
Tian Ergeng's crying stopped abruptly. He raised his head and stared at Pei Lun."You dare to f * cking tease me?”
If looks could kill, Pei Lun would have been cut into a thousand pieces by now. Unfortunately, his gaze was not lethal to Pei Lun. Pei Lun even smiled disdainfully at his gaze.
Tian Ergeng was furious.
Listening to the faint laughter around him, he felt as if his old face had been slapped.
"Motherf * cker, an Embroidered Lieutenant who doesn't even have a rank actually doesn't put me in his eyes!”
In his anger, he suddenly jumped up from the ground, wanting to teach Pei Lun a lesson, but at this moment, he met Ling Chen's cold gaze, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
His rationality quickly returned.
He was extremely aggrieved to discover that this rankless Embroidered Lieutenant was Ling Chen's trusted aide!
And Ling Chen was the undisputed victor today!
"Alright, Lord Tian, I've already handed over the matter of Xu Xianchun colluding with the Japanese to rebel to Ling Qianhu. He will definitely find out who was involved.”
The Emperor also looked at this scene with amusement and finally spoke.
Following this, he glanced at Wei Zhongxian and Yan Song, before looking at Ling Chen and saying,"Oh right, that Thousand Households Liu is also dead. I wonder how many of the ten or so Thousand Households in the North Town Governor's Office are related to Xu Xianchun's rebellion.”
"Ling Qianhu will arrange for someone to fill in the vacancy. When the time comes, we can just go to the Department for Purging Officials and inform them!”
The moment he said this, the 13 Thousand Households, including Lu Wenzhao, paled.
Wei Zhongxian and Yan Song looked at each other and saw the shock and dejection in each other's eyes.
Cao Zhengchun, Liu Xi, Wang Zhi, Yu Huatian and the others had similar thoughts.
The emperor was not stupid!
His actions were clearly to support Ling Chen in taking complete control of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and to stand on equal footing with the East and West Halls, the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa, and the inner cabinet!
However, he had never thought that with his childish methods, he would be able to control this freshly minted Ling Qianhu.
This person had such strength, such brains, and such methods. He could use the identity of a small flag to play with the various factions of the imperial court. Such a person…
Was he really in awe?
Be careful, Your Majesty!
