"What are you all doing? Who is on duty today? Why aren't you on duty at the Supreme Phoenix Palace?”
The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Guards Yamen.
Imperial Guards Lieutenant Sima Zhao strode into the yamen. When he saw his subordinates drinking and gambling there, his face flew into a rage as he roared at the crowd.
"Lord Lieutenant!"
When everyone saw that it was Sima Zhao, they were immediately shocked and knelt on the ground one after another. They were also half sober.
They could not afford to offend this Lord Sima Zhao in front of them. He was the second son of the current Great General Sima Yi. The position of Great General was the second highest position of a military officer, only slightly lower than that of Grand Commandant. He was in charge of the capital's defense and the Imperial Army.
As for this Lord Sima Zhao, his son was honored by his father. At the age of eighteen, he was already a lieutenant in the army. He was usually in charge of the Emperor's safety and was in charge of the Imperial Guards. He was their immediate superior.
"Bastards, His Majesty has passed away. What kind of situation is it now? Supreme Phoenix Palace is the most important. How dare you neglect your duties on this matter?”
Sima Zhao looked at the crowd and was furious.
He was originally enjoying himself at home, but his father, Sima Yi, had chased him back to the government office of the army. He was ordered to stay in the Imperial City 24 hours a day and not run around. He was to keep an eye on the Imperial City at all times and was especially instructed to pay attention to the movements of Supreme Phoenix Palace.
Although Sima Zhao was unwilling, he still came obediently. However, he had come diligently, but his subordinates were drinking and making merry. It was a national funeral. It was fine if these guys neglected their duties, but they actually dared to drink and make merry. Were they courting death?
"Milord, please calm down. Milord, please calm down…"
Seeing Sima Zhao's towering anger, everyone was frightened. At this time, the wine had also sobered up, and no one dared to look directly at Sima Zhao.
"Since you are all here, who is on duty at the Supreme Phoenix Palace?”
Sima Zhao glared at his subordinates. They were all his own people, so he couldn't be too harsh on them. Moreover, his Sima Clan relied on the Imperial Army, so he naturally wouldn't really turn hostile and punish them.
"Reporting to Your Excellency, the Imperial Guards sent by His Highness the King of Qin have taken over Zhao Yun.”
"He was the one who told me and the others not to be on duty in Supreme Phoenix Palace!”
"What? Lieutenant General Zhao Yun of the palace guards? Who is this person?”
"Have you heard of this person?"
Sima Zhao was stunned. He had never heard of this person before. When did the Imperial Army have a commander of the palace guards? Why didn't he know?
This palace guard lieutenant general's position was several levels higher than her imperial guards lieutenant. Wasn't this nonsense? The entire Imperial Army was managed by his father. How could he not know of such a palace guard lieutenant general?
"This general doesn't know. I've never seen him before. The soldiers he brought are also very strange. They don't look like our Imperial Army.”
The Imperial Guards were under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Army. There were several groups of Imperial Army soldiers in the palace, and they all wore different clothes. However, the soldiers led by Zhao Yun had never seen them before.
"You haven't even seen it before, so how can you let them take over the Supreme Phoenix Palace?”
Sima Zhao became even angrier when he heard this. He glared at these people and said.
"However, he has the token of a palace guard lieutenant general. Moreover, the empress seems to have tacitly agreed to his appearance, which is why we retreated.”
The officer said timidly.
"With a waist token and the Empress 'permission, who sent that person?”
"It's His Highness the King of Qin!"
"The King of Qin?"
Sima Zhao's eyes narrowed instantly. His father had already told him and his elder brother about Gu Longming's care when he returned today. He even laughed at Gu Longming, thinking that the other party was desperate and had actually let a nine-year-old child be the regent of the country.
Although Sima Yi's words showed some unease towards Gu Fengming's management of the country, he did not think much of it. He thought that Gu Fengming was just a child.
"What a great King Qin. I gave you the power to govern the country and you really dare to use it. You're using a chicken feather as an arrow and peeing on my father and I. If you want to touch my Imperial Army, I think you're just asking for death.”
Of course, Sima Zhao could not swallow this anger. This was the Emperor's bedchamber, the center of the Imperial Palace. Now that Gu Fengming had sent someone to take over, how could Sima Zhao swallow this anger? His eyes immediately turned cold.
"Immediately gather the people from the Imperial Guards Yamen and follow me to Tai Feng Palace.”
"Yes, sir!"
"Who is it? The people from the Supreme Phoenix Palace in front, please wait.”
There were more than a dozen white soldiers standing in front of the palace gate. When they saw Sima Zhao coming with more than a hundred people, one of the white soldiers stepped forward and stopped him.
"Are you blind? This is the son of the Great General, the Imperial Guards Lieutenant Commander, Sima Lieutenant.”
Seeing the Bai soldiers stop him, one of the guards stepped forward and shouted at someone.
"Under the orders of His Highness the King of Qin, anyone who enters or leaves the Tai Feng Palace needs the permission of the Crown Prince or the Empress. If you want to enter, you have to wait here. I will report to the Lord General and obtain the permission of the Empress and the Crown Prince before entering.”
"Hmph, what bullsh * t Zhonglang General, where did you come from?”
Sima Zhao was a person who was used to being overbearing. With his father around, he was like a little tyrant in the capital.
In the past, when Gu Longming was around, he had to be polite to him. Now that Gu Longming had passed away, there was someone who gave him a hard time. How could Sima Zhao tolerate this?
"You want to trespass into Supreme Phoenix Palace?"
When the white-armored soldier saw Sima Zhao's stance, he immediately formed a square formation with the others, fully alert.
"Hmph, even if I break in today, what can you do to me? Men, take down these rebels who came out of nowhere. I suspect that they have kidnapped the Crown Prince and Empress.”
Sima Zhao swept his eyes over them coldly and immediately gave the order. Immediately, the guards behind him did not hold back and swarmed forward.
"Quick, inform the Lieutenant General!"
Seeing that there were many people on the other side, the captain of the white soldiers did not dare to be careless and immediately said to the people behind him.
"Yes, sir!"
"Kill them!"
Sima Zhao didn't wait for the other party. With a command, the 100-man guards charged at the dozen or so White Clad soldiers.
