C403 Forcibly Promoting

Hsiang Yunkong had brought his subordinates from the border to the Imperial City to rescue them, but they were all plotted against by the Poison Dragon Army. He knew how powerful the Poison Dragon Army was this time in order to complete the task.

Even Hsiang Yunkong, who was revered as the War God at the border, was schemed against. All his subordinates and generals died in battle, and he was the only one who was imprisoned in the Court of Judicial Review.

Hsiang Yunkong couldn't believe that these were the only people in the Heaven Burial Pavilion who could break out of the encirclement successfully.

When he thought about how the Heaven Burial Pavilion still hadn't given up despite facing such a dangerous situation, Hsiang Yunkong felt extremely grateful. It was better to keep the Heaven Burial Pavilion in the Chu Country for one day than letting the other major powers hold the sky with their own hands.

"Vice Pavilion Master Nie, we don't know where Pavilion Master Ye is right now. Since we have come out, let's continue to gather our forces and expose the Crown Prince's plot. It will also bring peace to the Imperial City!"

When he saw that only Nie Cang had appeared, Hsiang Yunkong asked about Ye Tian's whereabouts. Right now, what he wanted to see the most was Ye Tian. Only by working together could he defeat Hsiang Yunyang.

"Your Highness, let's take a rest now. Look at Stable King's condition. He can't continue to torture us. I think the Pavilion Master really wants us to help him. He will definitely inform me in advance!"

Nie Cang shook his head at Hsiang Yunkong's opinion. At this moment, they were both exhausted. If they continued to fight, no one would be able to withstand such an intense consumption.

There was a connection between Nie Cang and Ye Tian. Although he hadn't received Ye Tian's call, Nie Cang believed that Ye Tian would definitely ask him to bring his men when the time came.

Besides, there were still many members of the Poison Dragon Army guarding the perimeter of the Heaven Burial Pavilion. If they wanted to return, they would need to rest for a short period of time and gather their forces.

It was understandable for Hsiang Yunkong to hear this. After all, the people on the scene had experienced such a battle. If they continued to consume their energy, it would be equivalent to giving Hsiang Yunyang some achievements!

Therefore, a large group of people went back to the Yun Lai Inn and treated Hsiang Yunjie first. When the people were not as exhausted as they were now, they would take care of the rest of the matters.

After everyone withdrew, only corpses were left on the ground around the Court of Judicial Review. This proved that the tragedy that happened earlier...

The changes in the Court of Judicial Review were known by Hsiang Yunyang in less than an hour. Hsiang Yunyang did not even return to the Crown Prince's Palace, but continued to discuss these matters with his trusted aides in the Imperial Court.

"Crown Prince, there must be a trick to this sudden change. We have already deployed our means to the limit. How can the remaining forces of the Heaven Burial Pavilion in the Imperial City compete with us?"

"Crown Prince, let's not delay any longer. Call all the ministers here and we will ascend the throne immediately. As long as we can control the imperial power of the Chu Country, no matter how proud those people are right now, they can't do anything!"

"Crown Prince, we must seize this opportunity. No, my king, please seize this opportunity!"

In the Imperial Court, all the people who remained here were the trusted aides that Hsiang Yunyang had planted in the Imperial Court after he supervised the country. These trusted aides were only loyal to Hsiang Yunyang, and no one could do anything to him!

Judging from the current situation, Hsiang Yunyang's previous plan had been destroyed for no reason. If he wanted to continue gaining the upper hand, the only way was to forcefully ascend the throne.

Only by turning the Crown Prince's identity into the current Chu King would they have a justifiable reason to do so. No one would dare to mention the previous matters!

"Bai Shaan, listen up. Activate all the member of Poison Dragon Army and spread the news of Old Chu King's illness. I want to obtain the support of more people in the shortest time possible!"

Hsiang Yunyang looked at Bai Shaan who was beneath him. He wanted this person, whom he trusted the most, to handle this matter. He wanted to promote the ascension of the throne to the highest possible level.

"You should hurry to the Misty Sect now and tell my mother that you have obtained the support of the Misty Sect. As long as we can get the Misty Sect to come forward, the two of us will be able to suppress the Heaven Burial Pavilion!"

Hsiang Yunyang continued to speak to the internal officer beside him. If this internal officer was to become the new chief after Hsiang Yunyang ascended the throne, his status would be equal to the current chief executive of Chu King, and his words would represent the meaning of the king.

"The rest of you, follow me to the inner palace. Although my father doesn't have the intention to announce the decree, he must get everyone's support. The chief steward and Golden Dragon Guard of the inner palace are still a big obstacle to me!"

Hsiang Yunyang issued three orders in a row, and each order was to push him to the throne.

Now that the old Chu King was still alive and couldn't announce the decree to succeed the throne, Hsiang Yunyang had to work hard to create the overall situation and make everyone lower their heads.

At that time, even if it was the Golden Dragon Guard, it would have to give up the unconscious Chu King and come to the side of the new Chu King to protect him in all aspects.

"Yes!" Everyone received the order. A large group of people followed behind Hsiang Yunyang and headed towards the harem in an orderly manner!

After arriving at the harem, the people Hsiang Yunyang sent out all those officials who were drifting about, and even those who opposed this matter, went to the harem. They were only a few steps away from Chu King's chambers.

These ministers followed the rules every day and did not dare to casually enter the harem. However, after being called over by Hsiang Yunyang this time, they had already guessed the true intention of this Crown Prince.1

"Crown Prince, didn't this old servant tell you before? The king needs to rest now. Don't make a fuss here. If there's anything, let's talk about it later!"

When the old official saw the commotion at the door and saw that Hsiang Yunyang had brought a large group of people to cause a ruckus in the harem, he immediately went out to stop them.

However, after the old official finished speaking, Hsiang Yunyang only glanced at the old man from the corner of his eyes and ignored him. He continued to speak on his own accord.

"All of you must know about the turmoil in the Imperial City recently. It was all because the king did not care about the state affairs that those scoundrels had malicious intentions. Although I sent people to chase them away, this matter definitely did not end there!"

"If we want to completely eradicate this matter, we can only let the sun of Chu Country rise once again. Even if it is only the tomorrow that has yet to take shape, we must hang it in the sky and burn those evil people!"

Hsiang Yunyang looked at the gathered officials very clearly. His words were very moving, but the meaning behind it was that he still wanted to ascend the throne!

More than half of the people present knew that this matter had nothing to do with anyone. It was all because of Hsiang Yunyang. Now, it seemed like the limelight was pretty good, or it should be said that it was time to collect the net before Hsiang Yunyang brought it up.

The old official was listening to Hsiang Yunyang's words from the side. His calm expression, which had remained unchanged for ten thousand years, had changed greatly at this moment.

"Crown Prince, you mean that you want to ascend the throne and become king, right? However, what the Crown Prince needed to know was that when Old Wang ascended the throne... He was only able to ascend the throne after getting the permission of the previous Chu King. Now that Old Wang is ill, this matter cannot be done!"

The old official's will was very firm. It was impossible for him to agree to this matter that was placed on the stove. Furthermore, even if Chu King was here, he would not agree to this matter!

"Head Chief, I am also in an extremely difficult situation. I will find a group of officials to discuss this matter. If the stalemate continues, who knows if the flag of the Imperial City tomorrow will be the name of our Hsiang family?"
