Chapter 204 Military Power
It is now night, and the imperial capital has a curfew.Xiao Jingtian's mansion only had some personal soldiers, but Zuo Ming came prepared, and the strength of the two sides was very different.

Although Xiao Jingtian didn't understand why the plan had changed, and Ning Yuezhao didn't know why, but in the current situation, if he didn't let him go, he had no other way out.

So, let the subordinates go down and toss with the forbidden army.

After clearing away the bugs blocking the way, Zuo Ming took a step forward, cupped his fists and said, "General, don't make things difficult for your subordinates."

Xiao Jingtian smiled coldly, "Is there any other choice for this general?"

"Who dares to touch me!"

Just when he was about to catch him without a fight, Lin and her confidant Honggu came out from behind the hall.

Seeing his mother, Xiao Jingtian's brows twitched involuntarily.Before he left Lin Shi in the palace and ignored him, since Lin returned to the mansion, he transferred all his anger to him, and every day as long as he was in the mansion, he would make a lot of trouble.

This is also the reason why he summoned Minghan late at night tonight, because Mrs. Lin went to bed and the house was silent.

"Mother, those who clean up clean themselves. The child has never done anything, so don't be afraid of their investigation!"

Right now, Xiao Jing really wished that Zuo Ming would take him away immediately.

Where did Lin hear these words, she obviously didn't teach her to be good during her time in the palace.

"Bastard! She dares to touch people from my Xiao family. Has she forgotten how their Ning family came to be? The ancestors of our Xiao family paid for it with their lives. Now their family's throne has only been passed down for a few generations. She Are you going to kill the hero?"

If Lin's words got out, even ten heads of Xiao Jingtian would not be enough to kill him.

Originally, it would have been fine if only Zuo Ming and his subordinate soldiers heard this, but at this moment there is still Ming Han who is not at ease.

"Mother's madness has occurred again, and she still hasn't taken her down!" Xiao Jingtian glared fiercely at Honggu who was beside Lin.

Aunt Hong shrank her neck, she was not as confused as Lin Shi, and hurried to pull Lin Shi's sleeve, "Old Madam, just listen to the general!"

Lin flicked his sleeves, "You guys are crazy, I'm normal!"

Zuo Ming suddenly sneered, "Mrs. Xiao seems to have not recovered from her previous illness. This commander will go back to the palace to report to His Majesty, asking for grace to let the old lady go to the palace to recuperate. This is not in vain for the founding of the ancestors of your Xiao family. It's done!"

When she heard that she was going to enter the palace, Lin couldn't help but soften.How could the palace be as comfortable as the mansion, she immediately grabbed Hong Gu's hand, "Oh, my head hurts so much!"

Hong Gu's hand hurt from being pinched by her, "Madam must be ill, this servant will take you back to your room to rest!"

After finishing speaking, the master and servant quickly left the hall.

Zuo Ming was angry and funny, Xiao Jingtian was even more tense.

"General Xiao?" Zuo Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Jingtian, the guards of the Imperial Army beside him looked eager to try.

Xiao Jingtian said with a sullen face: "I will go by myself, but this person will also be taken away. He has a great connection with the matter of Yuquan Mountain."

After finishing speaking, he slightly raised his chin in the direction of Ming Han.

Zuo Ming had noticed Ming Han in the hall early in the morning, who was tied up like a zongzi. Before he came out today, Jiang Nian had explained that Ming Han would most likely be controlled by Xiao Jingtian and brought him back together.Unexpectedly, it was really calculated by Jiang Nian.

When the news of Xiao Jingtian's capture reached Qifeng Palace, Ning Yuezhao was sitting cross-legged on the Arhat bed outside the dormitory, Jiang Nian was not asleep either, he was lying on the bed.

After dismissing the reporter, Ning Yuezhao closed the booklet and looked inside, "Minghan is also very strange. Since he offered advice to Xiao Jingtian, how could he remain indifferent when Xiao Jingtian showed his favor to him?"

Jiang Nian gently rubbed the jade mat with his fingertips, "He just wanted to use Xiao Jingtian's knife to kill people. Xiao Jingtian thought he could control this person, but in fact we were all put together by him."

Ning Yuezhao got up, went to the inner room, and sat on the edge of the bed, with a distressed look on her face, "You were the one who sent Ming Han's test paper to Xiao Jingtian's mansion. If you directly removed this person, perhaps it would not be so. There's a lot going on."

Jiang Nian's eyes also dimmed. At the beginning, he just wanted to follow the memory of his previous life to see what tricks Ming Han could play. Now it seems that he is too superstitious about the scattered memories of his previous life. Now because of his rebirth, many Everything is different from the previous life.

"If you don't enter the tiger's lair, how can you find tiger cubs."

Ever since Qu Shuiyan saw Ming Han for the first time, he felt that there was something wrong with him.He deliberately overstepped the answer sheet in Chunwei, just to get close to Xiao Jingtian, so he could go along with the flow.

From Xiao Jingtian's layout in Yuquan Mountain, he knew that the enemy had started to move.Xiao Jingtian has always been a person who advocates power and violence. How could he use such a devious trick? It is clearly the idea of ​​another person who is good at setting up situations.Apart from Ming Han, I will not be the second choice.

During the day, Ning Yuezhao said that he had no plans left, if he really had no plans left, how could he end up in such a situation.

Those changes at the bottom of the cliff were really unexpected.

From the case of the Green Bamboo Pavilion last time, when Xiao Jingtian stood up for Ning Yuezhao in the face of the deadly remonstrance of the officials, Jiang Nian had a strange feeling in his heart.After this incident, he has already confirmed that Xiao Jingtian has moved his heart towards Ning Yuezhao. Maybe Xiao Jingtian doesn't feel it yet, but as long as there is such a possibility, he can't indulge the development of the situation.

So Ning Yuezhao suddenly changed his action plan today, Jiang Nian actually had selfish motives.

When he woke up that day, he said that he should "respect each other as guests", but after these two days, he has already determined that he can't do it.

I jumped off the cliff with him, but I was reluctant to part with his deep affection, but in the end he was "being" let go of him by mistake.

Because of this, Ning Yuezhao felt sorry for him and accommodated him in everything now. If he kept picking on Joe, her patience would run out sooner or later.

When he was in a coma, he basically heard everything she said.She has already sensed her heart, which was a luxury he couldn't ask for in his previous life. Now that she has presented this sincerity to him, how can he repeat the same mistakes?

Maybe her feelings for him haven't reached the point where life and death are irrelevant, but as long as she has him in her heart, that's enough.

Therefore, Jiang Nian no longer asked who was right and who was wrong about that day, it was the result of a mistake, so why not just expose it.

"What's wrong?" Seeing him in a daze, Ning Yuezhao couldn't help asking.

Jiang Nian shook his head, with a smile in his eyes, "It's nothing, just bring the rest of the booklet, I'll read it with you and it will be faster."

Ning Yuezhao refused, "You're still hurt, don't stay up late with me, there are only a few copies left, I'll sleep after reading it."

Seeing her get up and go outside, Jiang Nian didn't say much, still maintaining a half-lying position, waiting for her.

Looking back at him like this, Ning Yuezhao couldn't help feeling warm in her heart.

Jiang Nian, I used to think that treating you as a guest for the rest of my life was just like a guest, but now I know that you have already entered my heart...

The next day, the news that Xiao Jingtian was captured overnight spread throughout the government and the public.

Above the court hall, a single stone stirred up a thousand waves.

"Your Majesty, General Xiao is a man of military merit. Now that the Imperial Army has not submitted the investigation results, why did they take him?"

Xu Zhi supported Xiao Jingtian as always, and felt that the army cannot live without him for a day.

Immediately, someone retorted, "What's wrong with the military merits? Can the king be ignored by relying on military merits? What's more, Elder Xu Ge didn't participate in the investigation of the imperial army, so how did he know that the investigation was fruitless?"

Ning Yuezhao was still the only person facing the court today. She raised her hand to stop the courtiers from arguing, "Last night, Zuo Ming, the commander of the imperial army, presented the results of the investigation to me. I am very grateful for Xiao Jingtian's contribution to guarding the frontier, and I have always treated the Xiao family generously. But now that he is doing such a rebellious act, he really doesn't care about the royal family!"

Xiao Jingtian is headstrong and has made many enemies in the court. Because the empress was afraid of him before, these people have been swallowing their anger.Now that Xiao Jingtian was on the verge of falling, these people jumped out immediately.

"It's not a day or two for Xiao Jingtian to embrace his own self-respect, but this time he actually has the idea of ​​killing the king. His Majesty should kill his nine clans!"

"The top priority should be to reduce his military power. As soon as the city gate opened this morning, someone came out of the city with the official document of the Ministry of War, and went straight to the town where the Northwest Army was stationed. I'm afraid there will be some changes in Xiao Jingtian's troops in the past two days."

"Your Majesty, you should first order Xiao Jingtian to hand over the Tiger Talisman to prevent mutiny!"

Ning Yuezhao pursed her lips and looked at Zuo Ming, "Did Xiao Jingtian be ordered to hand over the military amulet last night?"

Zuo Ming shook his head, "Your Majesty did not order Guo to seize his military power, how dare I ask General Xiao for a military amulet."

Yan Zhenglang came out and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, I think that Chu Xiao Jingtian's military power is inappropriate at this moment! The Northwest Army is already ready to move. If he seizes his military power at this moment, it may intensify the conflict. The coveted Bei Qi can take advantage of this opportunity!"

Ning Yuezhao said in a deep voice: "Zuo Ming, quickly mobilize the forbidden army near the capital to prevent mutiny in the army!"

She has 5 forbidden troops in her hands, and she can immediately mobilize troops to protect the capital under the order of the emperor.Xiao Jingtian now has only [-] horses around Gyeonggi, so if they really match up, their odds of winning are better.

Before going to bed last night, Jiang Nian pointed out that Xiao Jingtian might be willing to cooperate and just make a fuss, but those soldiers under him who are used to being arrogant might not be like this.Taking advantage of this opportunity, those restless bugs in the army will also be cleaned up.

 People are very uncomfortable these two days, let's update these first.
