Chapter 454 Eunuch's Skirt 12
Wei Chengyu took a deep breath and had already made his choice in his heart.
He walked down the stairs step by step, then stood behind Li Jin and Pei Han, his eyes firm and calm.
Xue Yi followed closely behind him, standing beside him. She seemed to feel his inner fluctuations, gently held his hand, and gave him silent support.
"Uncle," Wei Chengyu's voice was clear and powerful, breaking the tense atmosphere, "As a general, you should be stationed at the border to protect the country and not return to the capital without an imperial edict. Why are you arguing with the regent here?"
When Wei Feng heard this, his expression changed slightly, and a hint of anger and unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
He held his head high, looked straight at Wei Chengyu with a sharp gaze, and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you mean? I am leading the troops back to Kyoto to protect your safety. Are you going to abandon the Wei family and follow the regent? You are still young, but you know what he has in mind. How sinister is that!"
"Uncle, you don't have to say more." Wei Chengyu's tone was firm. "Although I am young, I can see the situation clearly and have long understood the truth of this power struggle. Although the regent controls the government, everything he does is for the future of the country. The floods in the south of the Yangtze River and the drought in the northwest would not have been properly resolved if the regent had not issued an order in time. And if you insist on staying in Kyoto, you must surrender your military token to preserve the peace of our Great Wei."
Li Jin nodded slightly upon seeing this, and then continued: "General Wei, if you are willing to stay in Kyoto, you should follow the court's law and hand in your military token. The military token in your hand is a national treasure, how can you arbitrarily control it?"
Wei Feng's face became increasingly gloomy and he was burning with anger.
He knew in his heart that if he handed over the military command, it would mean that he would lose control of the army and his authority as the general, which would be extremely disadvantageous to him.
His hands trembled slightly, and he walked away indignantly, leaving behind a few cold glances, as if announcing the complete break between him and Wei Chengyu.
At this moment, thunder rumbled and rain suddenly poured down.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, Wei Chengyu was not afraid at all, but became more determined.
He turned and looked at Li Jin and Pei Han, thinking to himself: Li Jin and Pei Han, if they can be used, will be two sharp blades.
"We must stabilize the situation as soon as possible. Although my uncle is gone, the military power in his hands is still a hidden danger." Wei Chengyu said slowly, his eyes through the rain, staring at the darkness in the distance.
Pei Han nodded and added: "Why not take this opportunity to mobilize some generals loyal to the court to ensure the safety of Kyoto."
"Okay." Wei Chengyu's heart moved and his thoughts turned rapidly.
Uncle, I will let you see that everything I do is for the future of Dawei.
He prayed silently in his heart and took firm steps towards the coming storm.
……
Early spring of the thirty-fourth year of the Wei Dynasty.
General Wei Feng, with his military command and 50,000 troops behind him, attempted to force the emperor to abdicate.
Regent Li Jin and Imperial Preceptor Pei Han were well prepared, and the golden armored guards that the late emperor left for the young emperor Wei Chengyu also came out in full force at this time.
Thirty thousand golden-armored guards, twenty thousand of Li Jin's private soldiers, and five thousand elite soldiers from Pei Han's sect gathered outside Xuanwu Gate, vowing to protect the young emperor Wei Chengyu to the death.
The sky of the imperial city was stained with blood.
Wei Chengyu stood on the Xuanwu Gate, looking at the countless dead and wounded soldiers below, his eyes gloomy.
Uncle, you still want a piece of the pie.
Do you know that whether it is you or me, we are both protecting the world of Wei...
Xue Yi stood behind the little emperor, holding a white kitten in her arms and stroking its fur from time to time.
[Master, there are Easter eggs in this plane. ]
In a dimension where Wei Chengyu could not hear, 007 spoke.
Xueyi became interested, [What Easter egg? ]
She originally felt it was a bit humiliating to have lived under the little tyrant for three years, after all, she had to be a little eunuch.
but……
After figuring out the little tyrant's temper, Xue Yi discovered that this person was not a bad person, he just had a bad temper and a somewhat extreme personality.
Besides, he is only 9 years old now. He can't do anything and can't kill her. Xue Yi is also happy and at ease, just treating it as an easy question.
