People write diaries in Zongwu, and the heroes collapse
Chapter 716 Return to the Capital
"It's troublesome, but it's better than being remembered all the time."
Lu Chen smiled faintly.
King Zuo Wu smiled coldly and said nothing more. His strength had been sucked away by Lu Chen. He was so weak that he was even weaker than a woman. He could only let Lu Chen deal with him.
Lu Chen looked at the masked man and said gratefully, "Thanks to you today."
If the masked man had not appeared in time and seriously injured King Zuo Wu, it would have been extremely difficult for him to defeat King Zuo Wu today.
"Don't take such risks next time."
The masked man warned.
Lu Chen smiled awkwardly. He was indeed careless this time. It won't happen again.
"I still have things to deal with. Oh, by the way, I have something to remind you. I got news that Shaolin Temple might want to deal with you. Be careful."
After saying this, the masked man turned and left.
"Shaolin Temple——"
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that Shaolin Temple was not that simple, especially the specific realm of the sweeping monk. Everything was unknown.
Right now, he had to stabilize the Song Dynasty court first, and then break through to the realm of life and death, before he would have the confidence to go to Shaolin Temple.
Mentioning the half-dead King Zuo Wu, Lu Chen returned to the capital and went straight to the Six Gates.
Seeing Lu Chen come back alive, Ji Yaohua finally let go of her worries.
"Are you OK."
Ji Yaohua asked with concern.
"I am fine."
Lu Chen replied, then put King Zuo Wu on the ground and said to her, "King Zuo Wu, I have captured him and imprisoned him in the Six Gates."
"he……"
"I have drained all his energy, and it will be impossible to recover in a short period of time."
Lu Chen knew that Ji Yaohua was worried about King Zuo Wu's strength, so he gave Ji Yaohua a reassurance.
Ji Yaohua finally felt relieved when she knew that King Zuo Wu had become a disabled person.
"Someone, lock King Zuo Wu in the lowest level of the dungeon."
Ji Yaohua gave the order.
King Zuo Wu was taken away, and Lu Chen followed Ji Yaohua to the Six Gates Conference Hall.
"How do you plan to deal with King Zuo Wu?"
When they arrived at the meeting hall, Ji Yaohua asked.
Although King Zuo Wu had lost all his power, once he recovered, the Six Gates would be unable to stop him.
This person cannot stay long.
"If the Six Sects want to control the court, they need to establish their authority, so let's use the Zuo Wu King as a sacrifice."
Lu Chen had thought it through long ago. Even though they had captured the capital and ushered in a new emperor, she was a woman after all. Officials from all over the Song Dynasty would definitely pretend to obey them but actually disobey them. Even some officials in the capital would do the same. At this time, someone was needed to take the blame, and King Zuo Wu was the best person.
"So best."
Ji Yaohua naturally would not object. Although the Six Gates controlled the court, they still had to establish their authority and make these forces in the capital know to be afraid.
"By the way, how is Zhuge Shenhou doing?"
Lu Chen suddenly asked.
"They have returned to the Divine Marquis Mansion and are not in danger of death. However, it will probably take a long time for them to fully recover."
Ji Yaohua pondered for a moment, then continued, "Tie Shou and the others are fine, but their powers were sucked away, and it will take time to recover."
"That's fine. During this period of time, you must seize the time and make sure that the court is full of our people, especially the Imperial Guards, who must be under firm control."
Lu Chen nodded and said.
"What about the rest of the Zhao royal family members?"
Ji Yaohua suddenly asked.
Although many members of the Zhao royal family died, there were still many members of the Zhao royal family in various parts of the Song Dynasty. It was almost impossible to kill them all at once.
"Don't touch them for now. I don't want any more accidents to happen. The power in the capital is intertwined. It's not easy to truly control the court. If you touch them now, it will only cause chaos in the world. Not only can you not touch them, but you must also reward them generously in the name of the new emperor's enthronement, give them titles, and let them eat the court's food."
Lu Chen smiled faintly.
"Why?"
Ji Yaohua was a little confused. She didn't know why they should treat these Zhao royal family members so well. Isn't this just raising a tiger to cause trouble?
"Give them a title. Those royal families who were once in decline should thank us. Otherwise, they are no different from ordinary people."
Lu Chen smiled slightly. The Song Dynasty had been established for so many years, and had been passed down from generation to generation. Many of the royal family members from the side branches lived worse than some businessmen. In a few years, their descendants would probably become ordinary people.
Give them titles and let them eat food from the court, and they won’t care who is the emperor.
"What if someone rebels?"
Ji Yaohua asked.
"That's even better. The imperial court has been so good to them, yet they still dare to rebel. They can't stand the righteousness, and the people of the world won't respond. We just need to wipe them out."
Lu Chen smiled faintly. If these people rebelled, they could be easily suppressed. They were also standing on the side of the righteousness of the imperial court. Don't be too perfect.
Ji Yaohua nodded. Since Lu Chen said so, there shouldn't be any problem.
After arranging everything, Lu Chen went to the Shenhou Mansion to visit Zhuge Shenhou again.
Zhuge Shenhou's condition has stabilized and he is no longer in danger of life. The next thing he needs to do is to cultivate his skills back to normal.
For others, this time may be very long, but for Zhuge Shenhou, this time should not be too long.
As for Tie Shou and the other four, although they were also injured, their injuries were not serious. The same problem they faced was the loss of their power. During this period of time, they could only take care of Zhuge Shenhou while trying to recover their power.
After the visit, Lu Chen returned to the palace.
Nowadays, Ji Yaohua's people are everywhere in the Song Dynasty Palace, and they can enter and exit the entire palace as freely as if it were his home.
What he needs to do now is to retreat and refine the true energy in his body, striving to break through to the realm of life and death.
At the same time, the news that the Six Gates had captured King Zuo Wu spread, and people throughout the capital breathed a sigh of relief.
The capture of King Zuo Wu meant that the rebellion was over, and everyone in the capital felt relieved.
This turmoil caused great losses to the people of the capital. Upon hearing that King Zuo Wu had been captured, the people who had been hiding outside the capital began to return one after another.
Some ministers who were lucky enough to survive also came out and wanted to go back to serve as officials. However, they were informed that they had to be investigated by the Six Gates to see if they were accomplices of King Zuo Wu. Only after passing the investigation could they be reinstated.
As for Zuo Wu Wang's accomplices, they were in a miserable state. They were arrested in large numbers by the Six Gates and the Imperial Guards and thrown into prison. Nearly three hundred officials of all ranks were involved. In the end, only those with serious crimes were arrested and imprisoned, while those with minor crimes were dismissed from office and fined. They were lucky to save their lives.
At the same time, Ji Yaohua became the most popular person in the court. In order to avoid being implicated, officials of all ranks would personally visit her residence and present her with generous gifts.
