The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

Guannan Prefecture

At the same time as in the Imperial Palace, the Fourth Prince Chu Chenyan and General Hong began to lead the Jingyong Army to besiege Guannan City. This was consistent with the time in the Imperial Palace, thanks to the mobile phone in Ouyang Yunyao's space.

Ouyang Yunyao's mobile phone can communicate with any other mobile phone. She brought a mobile phone for Chu Chenyan so that Chu Chenjing can keep in touch with Chu Chenyan at any time through Ouyang Yunyao.

The attack on Guannan City began. The gates and walls of Guannan City were really strong. They did not want to hurt the people or more people, so they just surrounded them and shouted, hoping that they would lay down their weapons.

The two city gates were guarded by the second and third princes of King Guannan. They relied on the sturdy city gates and the advantage of the city being backed by water on one side and mountains on the other.

They had no intention of surrendering, so Chu Chenyan and General Hong could only order an attack, and the two sides fought fiercely. The soldiers of Guannan Prefecture really got the true teachings of the King of Guannan, and they fought stubbornly, so the Jingyong Army was unable to capture the city gate for a while.

The Jingyong Army intensified its attack. At this time, the soldiers on the Guannan Prefecture city wall injured many Jingyong Army soldiers with muskets. They also threw small fireballs at the Jingyong Army, causing many casualties.

The second prince Chu Yuanyang was still standing on the tower, laughing wildly, "I will make sure you never come back. Don't even think about conquering our Guannan City."

This angered Chu Chenyan, and he ordered, "Prepare to drop the bomb!" This bomb was just the most ordinary small grenade that Ouyang Yunyao took out from the space and installed on a small grenade launcher, but in this world it was a sure-fire way to kill.

With the command "fire", small grenades flew towards the city gate tower with "whoosh", and "boom, boom" one after another small grenades exploded on the city gate tower with great power.

Not only did explosions occur on the city wall, but there were also explosions at the city gate. The city gate was about to explode with unstoppable force.

This frightened the people on the tower, and many were killed or injured. What kind of magic weapon is this? It is much more powerful than their little fireballs, and it can hit so far, even on the city wall. Now the tower is in chaos, and there are all kinds of shouting.

At this time, General Hong was about to lead his men to rush to the city gate that was about to be blown open, but at this time, they saw that the city gate had been opened and a white flag was raised. "Fourth Prince, General Hong, they surrendered." The soldiers all shouted. There were also two groups of people fighting on their city wall.

"People who watched them started fighting each other."

"Follow me!" General Hong led his men to the city gate. At this time, the city gate opened and several people rushed out. When they saw General Hong leading the Jingyong Army, they hurriedly said, "General, come quickly! Hurry and save our eldest prince."

The Jingyong Army climbed up to the city wall in a short while. It turned out that the eldest prince of King Guannan, Chu Yuanheng, led his men to fight with Chu Yuanyang's men.

He was the son of the first princess of Guannan. After his mother was murdered, he was bullied in the palace and was taken away by his maternal grandparents to be raised. He came back this time to seek revenge and happened to meet them. He joined the Fourth Prince and his men in the crusade against the palace and took them to search.

Under Chu Yuanheng's leadership, the entire Guannan City was taken over overnight and all the people were arrested.

The news reached Kyoto, and the emperor ordered them to interrogate on the spot.

……

Qianhe Hall in the Imperial Palace

In the court of Kyoto, ministers were discussing among themselves.

Some ministers accused the empress dowager, "I didn't expect the empress dowager to be so vicious. She kept harming the emperor. The emperor spared her again and again, but she still refused to give up. When the prince was unconscious, she actually poisoned the emperor. She is really a person who has lost her humanity. The emperor must not let her off easily."

"Yes, yes. It is unexpected that the Prince of Guannan brought so many soldiers into the palace. I didn't expect that he would have people in the city defense camp and the imperial guard..."

"I didn't expect Yu Deming to have such thoughts..."

"I didn't know that the Duke of Wei was also involved in this matter, and his sons are also the left and right arms of the King of Guannan."

"He liked the Queen Mother when he was young..." an old minister whispered to those people.

Everyone demanded that Prince Guannan and those ministers who participated in the rebellion be brought to justice.

At this time, the emperor was sitting on the dragon throne with a dignified look on his face. He ordered in front of all the ministers, "Xiao'er, immediately notify the Five Cities Military Department and the City Defense Battalion to search and confiscate the residence of Yu Deming and the residences of all the ministers who participated in the rebellion."

"Yes, Father, I will go there immediately. I will take my leave."

"Father, your Majesty, your son and I will also take our leave and go to the Dali Temple to intensify the interrogation."

"Yes." The emperor waved his hand and let them go.

This time the emperor was obviously furious, and he issued an order to investigate the case strictly. Anyone involved in the case would be severely punished.

Many ministers in the palace were also very scared. They were secretly glad that they did not listen to the Queen Mother's instigation and go to her for help.

Chu Nan's forcing the emperor to abdicate was not a bad thing for the emperor. It allowed the emperor to take this opportunity to clean up the people of the Queen Mother's lineage, all the rebels of the King of Nan and his forces, eliminate the disloyal ministers in the court, and warn Xue Xiang's lineage not to act rashly.

……

On that day in Kyoto, teams of soldiers were running everywhere, searching the mansions and arresting people. The common people did not dare to go out.

By the evening, all those people were thrown into prison.

The Queen Mother's family's Wei Mansion, Duke Xiao's Wei Mansion, Yu Desheng's Shangshu Mansion, and the residences of the dozen or so ministers. There were so many people that the prison was full.

Everyone has been busy these days. The Crown Prince, Prince Jing, the Second Prince, the Fifth Prince, the Sixth Prince, as well as all the people from the Five Cities Military Department, the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Clan Affairs were interrogated overnight.

After several days, the case of Prince Guannan's treason was finally almost concluded, and many unknown things were uncovered.

Three days later, the emperor announced to the people of Kyoto the crimes of treason committed by Chu Nan and the Queen Mother.

The people were very angry.

In these years, during the reign of the emperor, the people of Western Chu lived and worked in peace and contentment. He was also able to protect Western Chu from invasion by other countries, keeping them safe and without war. But the queen mother and the king of Guannan actually harmed the emperor in order to sit on the throne for themselves, assassinating the prince and their god of war, the king of Jing, many times. They were so vicious. They also joined forces with foreign enemies to assassinate the father and brother of the queen who defended the country. Fortunately, the previous emperor did not pass the throne to these vicious people.

A few days after hearing this, all the men in Guannan Palace (except the family of the eldest prince Chu Yuanheng), Xiao Ze's Weiguo Palace, and Yu Deming's Shangshu Palace were beheaded, and the men in other palaces were exiled to the frontier to do hard labor, and the women were sent to the Jiaosifang. The people in Kyoto applauded.

On the day when the main suspects of the Guannan Prince's treason case were beheaded, the people from inside and outside the capital all came to watch. As they watched these people being beheaded, they applauded and threw rotten vegetable leaves at them.

Blood flowed across half of the vegetable market, and the smell of blood was overwhelming.

The Queen Mother was banished to the cold palace.

This warned Xue Xiang's faction and shocked the officials of Xue Xiang's faction in the court. They finally realized that the emperor was really a man of great talent. After that, many ministers restrained themselves a lot. But that's another story.

At this point, the case of Prince Guannan's rebellion and forcing the emperor to abdicate ended like a farce.
