"All of you, quickly kneel down!" Xu Du shouted angrily again.
The soldiers behind Zhao Ji looked at him hesitantly.
If Lieutenant General Zhao Ji didn't move, they wouldn't dare to either.
"Ridiculous! You casually took out a sword and said it was the Shang Fang Horse Slaying Sword! Who would believe that?" " Hmph!" Zhao Ji laughed coldly. He had no intention of kneeling.
"How dare you!" Killing intent appeared on his face as he looked at the soldiers and shouted,"Do you think so too?"
As soon as he said this, the Black Armored Army behind him took a step forward.
Immediately, a wave of killing intent soared into the sky and wreaked havoc in the surroundings.
The Imperial Army soldiers subconsciously took half a step back.
Their instincts told them that these Black Armored Soldiers were invincible!
"General Zhao, that seems to be the real Shang Fang Horse Slaying Sword!" Zhao Ji's adjutant reminded him in a low voice.”
"Presumptuous! If I say no, then it's not!”Zhao Ji turned around and glared at the other party as he shouted.
The adjutant looked hesitant. Suddenly, determination flashed in his eyes as he knelt down and kowtowed.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!”
With his lead, the rest of the soldiers knelt down and shouted,"Long live our emperor!"
Zhao Ji turned around and saw his subordinates kneeling on the ground.
At this moment, he had already become a commander without an army!
"Men!" Xu Du shouted.
"General Zhonglang is a traitor and slandered Your Majesty!”
"According to the Great Han Dynasty's laws, anyone who slanders His Majesty will implicate the three clans!”
"I accept your orders!"
Zhao Ji's adjutant suddenly shouted and drew his sword from his waist. Before Zhao Ji could react, he stabbed at him.
"Pfft-"
? Heavily injured, Zhao Ji coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.
"You…you guys…"
However, before he could finish, the other soldiers drew their swords and stabbed at Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji was struck by dozens of swords. He wanted to speak, but he could only hear the sound of coughing up blood.
In the end, Zhao Ji died in despair.
Seeing this, there was not the slightest change in Xu Du's expression.
"Men!" Xu Du said to the officials behind him.
"Immediately investigate the entire First Lieutenant's Department! He could not let go of any clues! Hand over all evidence related to the lieutenant to me!”
"Here!"
As for these soldiers, they were only imprisoned at the side and not dealt with for the time being.
They had killed the rebels, and although they had made contributions. However, being suspected of defying the imperial edict was also a major crime.
Meanwhile, in Weiyang Palace.
Zhao Yan, the official of Zong Zheng, hurried towards the Xuanshi Hall.
"Eunuch Chun, please inform me.”
"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Zhao Yan, Lord Zhao has arrived.”
"Summon him in!"
"Here!"
After tidying his clothes, Zhao Yan gently pushed open the doors of the Xuanshi Hall and respectfully walked in.
"Your humble subject greets Your Majesty."
Liu Che glanced at him and said calmly,""Zhao Yan, did the various places reply to the documents that Zhen asked you to send out?”
"Your Majesty, the various counties have already sent back news one after another. There is nothing unusual!”
"However, right now, only a few remote vassal kingdoms have not made any movements.”
Liu Che closed his eyes and tapped the bamboo slips with his right index finger, making a " pa pa " sound.
Liu Che didn't speak, and Zhao Yan didn't dare to speak either.
After a long while, Liu Che said,"Has there been any news from the imperial court's scouts stationed in the various vassal states?"”
"Your Majesty, there is! However, none of them were good news.”
"Tell me!"
"Here!" Zhao Yan cleared his throat and explained,"The King of Wu, Liu Bi, is extremely extravagant during the period of national mourning. His etiquette is almost no less than the emperor's honor guard…"
" The King of Chu, Liu Wu, gathered with many famous singers during the mourning period…"
"The King of Zhao, Liu Sui, during the mourning period, publicly…"
"Jiaoxi King Liu Ang…"
Zhao Yan counted the problems of the various vassal states while secretly sizing up Liu Che.
If Liu Che's expression had the slightest change, then he would have a plan in his heart.
But the key was that Liu Che's expression was as calm as an ancient well, which made him lose his confidence.
Before he could finish, his forehead was already covered in a layer of sweat, and his back was even drenched in cold sweat.
"Are you done?" Liu Che said calmly.
"I…I'm done."
As he spoke, Zhao Yan kowtowed deeply.
At this moment, he did not dare to look up at Liu Che's expression.
If he were to bump into the muzzle of a gun, he would be doomed.
Just as Zhao Yan was panicking, Liu Che said calmly,""Get up."
"Here."
"Send all the evidence to the Supreme Court! Let them take good care of it! Zhen has great use for this evidence!"
Zhao Yan let out a long sigh of relief in his heart when he heard these words. He knew that the danger he was in had been lifted.
"Here!"
Walking out of the Xuanshi Hall, Zhao Yan had a feeling of being reborn.
Zhao Yan sighed emotionally in his heart, Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger! Although His Majesty was young, his majesty was monstrous!”
