Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1160

The soldiers under his command are all from the Northern Wing, and their commander is dead, so what are they still clinging to?

Furthermore, the people they were facing were General Ma or General Fu, as well as the elite troops and military examination candidates led by the Minister of War, Lord Song.

That’s right, Ma Chuyi and Ma Chuyang’s father, General Ma, ostensibly went to Qizhou to capture the Ying family, but turned around and returned to Beijing halfway.

General Fu did go to the battlefield, but he never went to Zhuonan River. It was General Fu Qingsong who kept suppressing the Wan army at Zhuonan River and prevented them from advancing.

General Fu stayed secretly in the capital, waiting for today's battle to defend the imperial city.

The appearance of General Arima and General Fu is more effective than any orders or preaching.

The soldiers of Ying's army and Hong's army laid down their arms and surrendered.

This was the only requirement of Emperor Mingde for this "cleansing the dust" plan. The so-called "cleansing the dust" literally means to remove dirt and dust, and return a clear and prosperous era to the North Wing.

He said, "They are my people in the North Wing, and every one of them is a precious asset of my North Wing. Obeying orders is the duty of a soldier, and they are just pawns in the hands of Ying Xiaoshan, Hong Yang and others. We must also cherish their lives. This operation must be carefully planned to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"Shedding the least amount of blood will achieve the best results. I do not want to see innocent people implicated, and I will not allow any indiscriminate killing of innocent people to occur."

"I require you, every soldier who participates in the 'Clear Dust' plan, to uphold justice and carry out every mission with a high sense of responsibility and mission."

In fact, this was also what Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan thought.

After being reborn, he planned carefully for so long, placed so many people, cast such a large net, and took such great risks, all for the purpose of completely eradicating the Empress Dowager's party.

Every detail is crucial, from internal infiltration, to intelligence gathering, to troop mobilization at critical moments, every step must be precise.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, the contacts with various secret agents were strengthened. In addition, the three shadow guards also played their roles to the fullest.

An eight-man shadow guard team was placed by Cen Yuan beside the Empress Dowager more than a year ago. This is the main force. It can be said that all the key points are on these eight people.

Another one is Emperor Mingde’s Western Shadow Guard, and another one is the “Twelve Killers”.

When everything was ready, as long as the Empress Dowager's followers secretly led troops into the imperial city, they would form the momentum of "forcing the emperor to abdicate" in the posture of a rebel army.

By then, both the court and public opinion will have an explanation.

Just as the first light of dawn appeared in the sky, the secret guard reported to the dowager empress, "Congratulations, empress dowager, congratulations, empress dowager, General Ying and his men have taken control of the four gates of the imperial city."

The Queen Mother was startled and woke up from her dream, "Really?"

"Absolutely true!" Xie Dagui lowered his brows and answered respectfully.

The Queen Mother asked, "Where is Lou Yuxiao?"

Xie Dagui replied, "He came here this morning and said he was going to the court to welcome the Queen Mother. I guess it was hard for those officials to believe that the Emperor had passed away, so he led the Eastern Feather Guards and the Imperial Guards there first."

The Queen Mother nodded, "You have thought it through very carefully." She then asked, "Have you captured Princess Haiyan and her husband?"

Xie Dagui replied, "In the middle of the night, the princess seemed to be unable to hold on and had a high fever. The prince consort surrendered and only hoped that the imperial physician would be present."

"Humph, I didn't realize that the prince consort is such a romantic!" The Queen Mother rubbed her swollen eyes with her hands, thinking in her mind how to make Shi Anxia's life a living hell.

But this person cannot be killed, and must be imprisoned as a lucky ornament. After all, she has always believed in the words of the sorcerer. The Phoenix Girl of Destiny...cannot be killed at will.

Today is the most important day in Empress Dowager Jiqing’s life.

The palace maids came into the palace to dress her up, holding all kinds of dressing utensils in their hands, from exquisite bronze mirrors to combs inlaid with gemstones, from delicate rouge to fragrant powder, all of which were luxurious.

The leading maid first gently combed the empress dowager's long hair, and then asked, "Empress Dowager, how about a phoenix dancing in the sky bun today?"
