Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Under the night.

Hu Weiyong, wearing a dragon robe and riding on a war horse, looked a little embarrassed at this time.

Thinking of the scene just now, especially the monster in the Forbidden City that kept spewing sparks in the night, Hu Weiyong still felt a little scared.

Damn it, it’s Yang Xian again!
He always invents these weird things.

Hu Weiyong then remembered that even the Hongwu rifle was invented by Yang Xian.

If this is the case, then it is not impossible for him to invent a firearm with even greater lethality than the Hongwu rifle.

But so what!
As long as they join forces with Tang Shengzong, Fei Ju and their teams, it is only a matter of time before they take over the Forbidden City with their numerical advantage.

Even if Yang Xian had that monster, the number of Jinyiwei was only more than a thousand.

Yes, that's right!

By then, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I can kill them!
Hu Weiyong repeated himself in a low voice a few times, as if to strengthen his determination. His eyes finally regained some of their former brilliance, and he came out of his recent failure.

Hu Weiyong looked at Lu Zhongheng and other soldiers beside him. Their eyes were lifeless, and they were obviously shocked by the scene just now, because the scene of Yang Xian firing with the Maxim heavy machine gun was too shocking.

"Don't be afraid, no matter how powerful Yang Xian's magic is, he is just one man after all. As long as we join forces with Marquis Yan'an and the others, we will directly use troops several times larger than theirs to crush them, and they will not be able to resist at all! And since we have already done this tonight, there is no way back! When I ascend the throne, all of you present here will be my loyal ministers!" Hu Weiyong said loudly.

Hu Weiyong's words can be said to be a combination of kindness and severity. While giving these soldiers hope, they also completely cut off their retreat, making them wholeheartedly fight for him.

After hearing Hu Weiyong's words, Lu Zhongheng quickly came to his senses. He took a look at the situation on the scene and knew that at this time, if they lost their morale again, they would surely be defeated. Therefore, he immediately began to calm the emotions of these soldiers and cheer them up.

Just at this moment, the sound of horse hooves and footsteps came from the front.

Hu Weiyong was overjoyed and shouted, "Brothers, our reinforcements are here!"

But he just finished speaking.

Then a voice was heard from a distance.

"Hu Weiyong! Lu Zhongheng! Tang Shengzong, Fei Ju and the others have already been executed. You won't have any reinforcements. Dismount and surrender immediately!"

Upon hearing this voice, Hu Weiyong, Lu Zhongheng and others' faces changed and their smiles froze on the spot.

The remaining thousand or so soldiers behind them immediately became somewhat confused.

Tread-tap-

The firm sound of horse hooves echoed on the dark streets.

What Hu Weiyong and his men saw was not the reinforcements they had been waiting for, but the enemy!

Looking at the familiar figure in front of the other side, Hu Weiyong's eyes were full of disbelief and his lips trembled.

"Impossible, how could he be here?"

Yes, how could Tang He, who had clearly been sent to the front line, appear in Jinling City at this moment!
The moment I saw Tang He.

Hu Weiyong knew that he was finished, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

In the army, there are no more than three people whose prestige is higher than Tang He, and it is obvious that Lu Zhongheng is not among them.

Not only Tang He, but Li Wenzhong soon appeared from the other side with a team, completely blocking Hu Weiyong and his men's escape route and breaking the rebels' last psychological defenses.

At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Hu Weiyong's mind.

I finally figured out a lot of things.

It turns out that from the very beginning, this so-called once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was just a trap.

The moment he thought of rebelling, he was doomed to failure.

I lost.

And they lost completely.

There was not even the slightest suspense. The soldiers behind Hu Weiyong and his men, no one knew who was the first to put down their weapons, but soon one after another, all put down their weapons and surrendered.

This rebellion, which was worthy of being recorded in the history of the Ming Dynasty, came to an end.

That night, many people in the entire capital city were destined to not sleep well.

The entire turmoil was not completely quelled until around three o'clock in the morning.

After a while, someone brave enough asked the servants in the mansion to go out and investigate to confirm the situation.

Five watch.

That is the time for the morning court.

All the officials attended court as usual, but almost everyone was worried.

The smell of blood in front of the Forbidden City gate has not yet dissipated.

They noticed that there were many more soldiers patrolling today than usual, and each of them had a solemn and murderous aura.

Fengtian Hall, they passed by it countless times.

But they had never felt as nervous as they did today. They had never felt this way even when they first went to court.

Outside the Fengtian Hall, officials on both sides of the steps lowered their heads.

In the past, officials would discuss in low voices, but today, there is no trace of this at all.

Inspector Pan Longyun also lowered his head. He could sense the change in the atmosphere at the scene. He had also heard about what happened last night. As a censor, he was extremely poor. There were not even many decent servants in his mansion, let alone guards. He had noticed something was wrong last night and had his servants close the door early.

When he heard the bursts of gunfire, he was so scared that he hid his head under the quilt.

After that, he didn't even know when he fell asleep. When he woke up again, it was almost time for court.

Therefore, Pan Longyun did not know the whole picture of what happened last night. Of course, he had some vague guesses about this matter, and Pan Longyun was not the only one like him.

And just as he was thinking.

"Start the court!"

Only the eunuchs' singing and shouting could be heard from the hall, and the door of Fengtian Hall slowly opened.

Pan Longyun carefully followed the group of ministers and entered the hall one after another.

In the main hall, Zhu Yuanzhang was already sitting high on the dragon throne, looking down at the ministers coldly.

As if he wanted to see through the hearts of the civil and military officials below, just when some of them were getting flustered, Zhu Yuanzhang finally spoke.

"I'm sure some people have heard about what happened last night."

This early morning court.

For many officials, this is definitely the most difficult morning court session in their political career.

Even though Zhu Yuanzhang only calmly and lightly described the rebellious acts led by Hu Weiyong, Lu Zhongheng and others last night, he announced his withdrawal from court early afterwards.

But everyone walked out of the Forbidden City with a worried mood.

You should know that Hu Weiyong was previously the Prime Minister of the Secretariat, and all the civil and military officials in the court had more or less a relationship with him.

Everyone is afraid that this matter will eventually implicate them.

Wait until everyone leaves the Forbidden City.

Only then did a minister couldn't help but whisper: "I have always thought that Hu Weiyong was a rare smart man. I really can't imagine that he could do such a stupid thing as rebellion."

"Smart people?" A friend sneered, "When smart people become stupid, they are dumber than anyone else!" (End of this chapter)
