The old emperor, who was having a meal, put down his chopsticks when he heard a noise outside that seemed to overturn the palace.

"What's going on outside?!"

The young eunuch quickly ran in, plopped down on the ground, his legs trembling.

"Reply, reply to your Majesty. All the civil and military officials at Xuanwu Gate and the people of the capital have gathered here, kneeling on the ground and begging... begging... begging your Majesty to send troops to support the troops at the border."

After finishing the report, the young eunuch was so afraid that the emperor would chop off his head in anger that he banged his head on the ground and trembled all over.

Bai Yuer's face turned paler and paler.

how come?

Wasn't it Tang Yu who was the only one kneeling outside? And if he knelt for a while longer, he might die. How could the civil and military officials and the common people die?

This matter obviously has nothing to do with them, especially the common people.

This is ancient times, the emperor's power is important and the people are inferior, how dare they...

"boom!!"

The teacup fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and the servants in the hall fell to their knees.

The old emperor was furious, obviously very angry about the truth reported by the young eunuch.

"How outrageous! How outrageous! They are really rebellious! These untouchables are really rebellious! Are they going to rebel? I want to see what they are going to do. Are they going to take the throne from under my ass?!"

As he said this, he angrily kicked the chair and strode out.

Bai Yu'er had not yet recovered from the fact that the people and civil and military officials were forcing the emperor to abdicate, and when she saw the old emperor going out, she hurried to follow him.

"Your Majesty, wait for me."

...

At Xuanwu Gate, Tang Yu only looked weak as if he was freezing to death, but in fact he was protected by 001, which was just an illusion.

But looking at the ministers and people behind her, she knew that her plan was successful.

Bai Yu'er would never have thought until her death that her plan was indeed foolproof. She colluded with the barbarians to send troops to Dayan and took the opportunity to eliminate those in the court who did not support Bai Zhan and get rid of the prince.

Once the crown prince dies, Bai Zhan has the greatest chance of inheriting the throne.

The rest of the princes were either suppressed by the old emperor or schemed against by Bai Yu'er and Bai Zhan since childhood, making them of little use to them.

Moreover, most of the military generals in the court who were capable of resisting Bai Zhan had been killed by the barbarians. At that time, Bai Yuer only needed to deal with the old emperor.

By then, even if there were dissenting voices in the court, they would only be a group of civil officials who could suppress them with a wave of their hands.

Although the subsequent processing is more troublesome, it is not difficult.

Until then.

Bai Zhan's ascension to the throne will surely be open and honest.

However, the plan is good.

Bai Yuer forgot that there was another important link.

The old emperor walked quickly over, his face red and his neck thick with anger, his chest heaving violently, and he was panting like a cow.

Tang Yu exchanged a glance with Ming Yuan who was standing behind the old emperor. Just a glance was enough to show that he was filled with heartache in his eyes.

He gave him a calm look, telling him not to act rashly.

Now is not the best time to reveal the truth. We have to wait until the people and the ministers become increasingly dissatisfied with the old emperor. Then, we can deal a heavy blow to them. That will be the best time.

"Okay, okay, you are really my good daughter, Anping, are you going to rebel? And you, are you all going to rebel with a bunch of untouchables?"

How could Bai Zhan not be there at this time when the fruits were to be picked? He hurried forward to comfort the old emperor, while pointing at Tang Yu and the officials.

"Tang Yu, are you colluding with Tang Jue to force the emperor to abdicate and rebel? You and I, who are paid by the imperial court, dare to participate in the rebellion. This is truly an unforgivable crime. Your Majesty, I beg you to execute the traitors!"

"You, you, you are talking nonsense, how could we ever plot rebellion?
