Xiao Tianci regretted very much. He regretted why he didn't shoot the idiot Xiao Wufeng into the wall.

Damn it! You usually pretend to be so gentle and knowledgeable, and you have so many ministers supporting you in the court, but at the critical moment, you actually betrayed your father.

So, Xiao Tianci kicked this annoying thing away angrily.

Poor Xiao Wufeng had no idea what was happening and fainted.

"Your subordinate Zhang Liao greets you, sir!"

"Your subordinate Yan Qing greets you, sir!"

"I, Yuwen Cheng, have met you, young master!"

After the three of them saw Xiao Chen, they all got off their dragon horses, quickly walked to Xiao Chen, knelt on one knee, and spoke respectfully.

This made all the onlookers stunned. What was going on? Why did the general who was responsible for protecting the emperor kneel down in front of Ye Chen as soon as he arrived here? This was not in line with the script!

The officials of the court knew what was going on. Zhang Liao and his men had never seen him, but Yuwen Chengdu and Yan Qing knew that he was Ye Chen's subordinate.

Xiao Tianci had wanted to recruit them at the beginning, but he didn't expect that after he took control of the military power, they would become his enemies. It was really ironic.

"Emperor, what's going on? Didn't you send people to ask for the imperial guards? Why are these people kneeling to that brat named Ye Chen instead?"

Xiao Shan rubbed salt into Xiao Tianci's wounds at the right time.

The three of them were the elders of the Xiao family and also Xiao Tianci's predecessors, so they were not afraid of him because of his position as emperor. They questioned him directly to his face without any mercy.

Xiao Tianci didn't know how to answer this question, so he simply didn't answer it. Instead, he stared at Xiao Chen and said, "Ye Chen, who are you? What do you want to do by plotting so hard?"

Now he finally realized that Xiao Chen had been setting traps for him from the very beginning, attracting his attention and making him hand over the military power to his subordinates step by step.

He is even now 90% sure that the mysterious man who issued the task in the Assassin's Guild must be Xiao Chen.

Shangguan Qingmeng also turned her gaze to Xiao Chen beside her. Her woman's intuition told her that the identity of this young man must be extraordinary.

With the capabilities of her intelligence organization, they were unable to find out his identity, which meant two things: first, this person was not from the Great Zhou, and second, he was using a fake identity.

She was more inclined to the second possibility, because with the strength shown by Xiao Chen, if he was not from the Great Zhou, he would not have been so deliberate in seizing the power of the Imperial Guards and controlling the defense of Luocheng.

All of these were personally participated in by her subordinates, so of course she knew it clearly.

Xiao Chen stood up gently under the watchful eyes of the crowd. His expression did not change at all; he remained terrifyingly calm.

But what he said was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing a thousand waves.

Xiao Chen did not look at Xiao Tianci, but instead glanced at the court officials who were sitting upright.

"Fifty days ago, the emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom died suddenly. Xiao Tianci and the traitor Yan Jilong conspired to usurp the throne. Did you know that?"

"Also fifty days ago, Xiao Chen, the crown prince of the Great Zhou, was named the King of Guangyang by Xiao Tianci and was to take up the post immediately without delay. Did you know that?"

"Forty-five days ago, Yan Feng, the commander of the imperial guards who was escorting Prince Guangyang, received a message from Yan Jilong, asking him to execute Xiao Chen privately. Did you know that?"

"Ten days ago, Broken Blade City fell, tens of thousands of soldiers were killed, the leader of the Crazy Lion Sect, Zhan Gekuang, and the Broken Blade City defender Yan Taishu died in battle. Did you know that?"

"Today, the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Xianglong Kingdom negotiated peace. The Great Zhou Dynasty will pay a million spirit crystals to the Xianglong Kingdom every year and cede a large area of land. Did you know that?"

"You all know this, but as subjects, you have always stood on the side of the rebels. How can you be at peace with your conscience? In your eyes, are the interests of the Great Zhou not as important as your own petty gains?"

Xiao Chen's words were like a sharp sword, leaving countless court officials speechless.

But they had already developed skins as thick as a city wall, and were indifferent to Xiao Chen's words. Their hearts had long been dead, and in their eyes, apart from interests, there was really nothing that could move them.

This is the reason why Xiao Tianci was able to successfully usurp the throne, and it is also the reason why Xiao Chen can regain the throne today, because no one cares who sits on the throne.

However, the civilians became agitated. These things were undoubtedly the secrets of the imperial court. How could they know them? Now that they knew them, they were greatly disappointed with Xiao Tianci!

Especially since Xiao Tianci was going to sign such a humiliating agreement, they could not accept it even more.

"So this is how the throne of the emperor is passed down! It's too dark, your circle is so chaotic!"

"I don't care who sits on the throne, but how can the court sign such a humiliating agreement? When did my Great Zhou become so cowardly? I don't accept it! We can't sign it!"

"Yes, such an agreement cannot be signed. Otherwise, how can we justify the thousands of soldiers who died in the war?"

Xiao Shan and the other two people beside Xiao Tianci were also looking at him in shock at this moment.

Xiao Shan asked angrily, "Xiao Tianci, is what this young man said true?"

As servants of the Xiao family, Xiao Shan and others have been secluded in the imperial palace for many years. Therefore, they rarely ask about matters that do not concern the survival of the royal family.

In fact, they didn't know much about Xiao Tianci's usurpation of the throne, because the throne was still in the hands of the Xiao family, and they didn't bother to care.

If Xiao Tianci had not asked them several times to come out to calm the situation, saying that it involved a dispute between the two countries, they would not have come out.

But he never expected that Xiao Tianci would do such a thing that would lose power and humiliate the country. This was beyond their tolerance.

Facing the questioning of the three priests, Xiao Tianci was not at all flustered. Instead, he said to them very calmly: "Three priests, now is not the time to pursue this! Don't you see that someone is trying to take over my Xiao family's kingdom?"

These words made the three priests look slightly stunned. Xiao Tianci was right. Now was not the time to worry about this, but the time to preserve the Great Zhou Dynasty.

When the three Xiaoshan people looked over, Xiao Chen sneered and said, "Xiao family's kingdom? Xiao Tianci, are you the only one in the Xiao family who is qualified to hold that position? Then look at who I am?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chen gently took off the thousand-thread mask on his face, revealing a younger face.

"He is not..."

Shangguan Qingmeng, who was closest to Xiao Chen, was the first to cover her red lips with an expression of disbelief.

There were few things that surprised her, but this was an exception.

Countless court officials who were sitting peacefully in their seats stood up in shock at once.

Xiao Tianci stared at Xiao Chen's face and squeezed out two words with hatred: "Xiao Chen!"
