Emperor Guang Peng went to Jin Wei to attend the ceremony of the Northern Squadron.
This was not a secret in the court of the Ming Empire. Many ministers knew about this.
And this naturally gave some people an opportunity to take advantage of.
In the Gong Prince's residence, the Gong Prince and his henchmen were plotting.
"Wangye, the little emperor has gone to Jin Wei. According to the information we received, we will be leaving for Beijing tomorrow afternoon. This is a good opportunity for us to make a move! After this village, there wouldn't be such a shop!”Baoyun seemed very excited.
"Yes, Your Highness. The little Emperor had either stayed in the Forbidden City or went to the military camp to inspect. We had no chance to make a move at all. This time, it was really a heaven-sent opportunity! If he missed it, he would probably never have such an opportunity again!”Jing Lian persuaded.
Although attempting to murder the emperor was definitely a capital crime, and would result in the extermination of the entire family.
However, with the Emperor of Guang Dong around, they had no chance to stand out. For power, they were willing to take risks and gamble their lives.
"This is indeed an opportunity for us." If we can get rid of the little Emperor, then we can take advantage of the situation and seize power.”
"That's right! So, Your Highness, let's not hesitate.”Baoyun quickly said.
"However, the guards around the little Emperor are very strong. We might not be able to succeed. If he failed, the consequences would be very serious!”The Gong Prince warned.
"Your Highness, even if we give up, do we have any other chance? The little Emperor had already monopolized power. Our faction is being suppressed. The little Emperor had just taken over the throne and was already like this. If we give him more time, won't we never have a chance to turn things around again?”Jing Lian said.
The Gong Prince's eyes became determined.
"Is there a suitable candidate?" The Gong Prince asked.
Even though the Emperor was his nephew. However, for the sake of power and the throne, he did not care about the relationship between uncle and nephew at all.
"Your Highness, there are still loyal people among us nobles. The little Emperor had brought over a thousand new soldiers and dozens of palace guards to the Jin Guards. The new army had just been formed, and its combat strength was limited. We can get the troops from Garrison Lane to take action. That was the defense zone of the left wing of the Beijing camp. As for the Left Wing Commander Tu Lu, he was promoted by Daren. I've already contacted Tu Lu, and he agreed to get rid of the little Emperor. However, after the matter was done, his highness could not mistreat him.”Baoyun said.
"Very good. Tell Tu Lu to do as he pleases!" The Gong Prince nodded. After the matter is done, this king will definitely not mistreat him. The position of the Nine Gates Inspector was his!”
"Yes, sir!" Xiao Baoyun was overjoyed.
"The little emperor is bold and reckless, wantonly destroying the ancestral system. He simply doesn't put our Ming Dynasty and the ancestral rules in his eyes. As a descendant of the Aisin Gioro Clan, I have no other choice but to protect my Great Ming Empire for generations to come. I hope my ancestors can bless me!”The Gong Prince said sincerely.
It was as if everything he did was for Da Ming, without any personal gain.
In fact, this was simply wanting to be a whore and also want to build a chastity archway.
"Your Highness, you are doing this for the sake of the country. All the people in the country will understand your difficulties!”Jing Lian quickly said.
The Gong Prince was very satisfied. He could already see the Emperor of Guang Dong being killed, and then he would raise his arm and take the throne under the support of everyone, becoming the Emperor of the Ming Empire.
He believed that under his rule, the Ming Empire would definitely develop even stronger.
At that time, he would be the Lord of the Great Ming Empire's revival and would be destined to be remembered for hundreds of generations!
Of course, there were risks in doing so.
If the assassination failed and the Emperor of Guang Dong was not killed, then he would be killed. The consequences would be very serious. Even if the Gong Prince was the Iron Hat King, it would be difficult for him to escape death.
His henchmen would inevitably be exterminated.
However, the Gong Prince and his trusted subordinates had long been blinded by the desire for power and did not care about that at all. They only saw how great the benefits would be after the results, but they did not know what would happen if they failed.
On the afternoon of October 30th, Emperor Guang Cheng and his group left Jin Wei and returned to Yan Jing.
Because there was no railway, their speed was not fast.
It was not until October 31st that they arrived at a place not far from Langfang.
At this moment, the left wing commander of the capital camp, Tu Lu, had already led more than 3,000 subordinates and was ready to take action.
Tu Lu was also a person who was willing to take risks for power. Although this was a business that required death, he did it without hesitation.
