"Commander Ye Beifeng."
"Greetings, Your Highness, with 2,200 of the Royal Guards.”
In the Royal Guards Residence, on the drill ground.
Ye Beifeng brought everyone down on one knee.
Different from yesterday, at this moment, whether it was their voices or their movements.
They all expressed their complete obedience, and some of them did not even dare to raise their heads.
After yesterday's incident and the imperial edict this morning, everyone finally understood.
The Thirteenth Prince in front of him wasn't here to go through the motions. He held great power in his hands and couldn't be offended.
"Get up." Jiang Chen stood on the stage, his eyes calm and unsurprised.
"Your Highness is indeed a god. I admire you!”
At this moment, Ye Beifeng, who had already become the commander, walked over and bowed to express his respect.
He didn't dare to underestimate Jiang Chen anymore, and he still felt some respect in his heart.
It was just a small trick. Not only was Wang Chong driven away, but His Majesty had also issued an edict.
It was as good as telling everyone that he had the support of His Majesty.
He had already made up his mind.
In the future, it was best to obey the Thirteenth Prince's orders unconditionally.
On the other side, Jiang Chen smiled but didn't say anything, even though he didn't know the contents of the imperial edict.
But thinking about it, it was definitely not far from what he had guessed.
Otherwise, why would Ye Beifeng bring these people to kneel down on one knee willingly?
Only by establishing prestige, punishing a batch and rewarding a batch would the effect be immediate.
The latter had both benefited and heavily injured Wang Chong.
Naturally, they were grateful to him.
But Jiang Chen knew that this kind of submission.
It was only because of the imperial edict and the current Great Yan Emperor.
It had nothing to do with him, but it was enough. At least, there would not be any problems for him to take over the Royal Guards in the future.
"Right, this subordinate hasn't congratulated Your Highness yet.”At this moment, Ye Beifeng spoke again,""Today's imperial edict is not only as you expected, but there is also another one. His Majesty is going to confer the title of Duke of the Duchy!”
"I believe that in less than two days, the imperial edict and imperial edict will be issued."
"Since the founding of Great Yan, there has never been such an honor!”
Jiang Chen frowned slightly upon hearing this.
At the same time, his mind changed slightly, and various thoughts appeared in his mind.
Just as the other party said, if he didn't make any contributions, he would be conferred the title of Duke of the Supporting Country.
The Great Yan Empire was indeed unprecedented.
But why did that Imperial Father do this?
Are you flattering me?
He smiled, because he had roughly guessed the thoughts of the Great Lord.
Being in charge of the Royal Guards had already become a thorn in the side of many factions.
In addition, the title of Defender Duke was to tell everyone. He had already become the new favorite.
Then, most of the conflicts in the court would be transferred to him. Such a method was indeed powerful.
The real test had just begun.
But so what?
He was fearless!
"Alright, let's wait for the imperial edict to be issued.”
Jiang Chen didn't continue to think. He looked at Ye Beifeng who was beside him.
"Now that the establishment has expanded, there are ten thousand people.”
"But the quality of the Royal Guards is more important than quantity. Ye Beifeng, listen to my orders!”
"I order you to use any method within three days to replace the 800 Sky Guards that have been abolished!”
Three days? Ye Beifeng's expression changed when he heard this order.
Just as the other party had said, the Royal Guards were all elites.
In addition, the selection requirements were extremely difficult. Eight hundred people had to be selected within three days.
It was almost impossible.
However, after thinking about what happened yesterday, he could only answer,"Your humble servant accepts the order!"
Jiang Chen nodded and ordered Ye Beifeng to clean up a room.
From today onwards, he would officially move into the Sky Guards Manor.
......
Kacha!
The chair made of fine iron was crushed.
"Master Qing, didn't you say that Jiang Chen would be stripped of his authority?”
Twelfth Prince Jiang Yu stood in the hall with a gloomy expression.
He had been anticipating Jiang Chen's downfall, but now it was beyond his expectations.
Not only was he still in charge of the Royal Guards, but he was also conferred the title of Duke of the auxiliary country.
He had worked hard for many years to obtain this title.
The other party actually caught up in an instant.
"Your Highness, please calm down."
Yu Qing hurriedly walked over and asked the other party to lower his voice.
Although he was not in the Imperial City, the entire Great Yan Empire was under the control of the Imperial Lord.
If the news of Jiang Yu's anger spread, she would inevitably be punished.
The latter seemed to have realized this as well and took a deep breath.
"Tell me, what should we do next?”
"He is in charge of the Royal Guards and has great authority.”
"If the accounts of these years are dug up, I'm afraid this highness and mother will be in trouble.”
Jiang Chen's cultivation wasn't high, and the strongest among the Royal Guards was only at the Golden Core realm.
However, in the Great Yan Empire, although strength was important, what was more important was what the Great Yan Emperor thought.
Otherwise, could the Royal Guards have punished so many officials in the past few years?
That organization had the authority granted by the Emperor. This was what he had to pay attention to.
"Haha, Your Highness, there's no need to panic." Yu Qing stroked his beard and smiled.
"In the past, the reason why the Royal Guards were so aloof was because they were so powerful.”
"That's because he relied on His Majesty behind him. Who is it now? He's just the Thirteenth Prince."
"In the past, unless the conflict between the princes went too far, His Majesty would not interfere.”
There were many things that he did not say.
However, Jiang Yu was very smart and instantly sensed the meaning behind it.
If the Royal Guards targeted him, his father would think that it was a fight between the princes.
They wouldn't side with either side. On the contrary, they might even suspect that Jiang Chen had deliberately attacked.
Thus, there would be a grudge between them. Back then, the First Prince had been caught by the Third Prince because of this.
Later, he was punished, causing his power to be weaker than before. Later, he was chased by the other princes, resulting in the current situation of the five great princes.
"Then what suggestions does Master Qing have?" Jiang Yu's anger turned into joy as she hurriedly asked.
Yu Qing smiled and spoke with his hands behind his back.
"I do have a plan!"
