Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

Chapter 203 Involving the Ministry of War!

Late at night.

Royal Palace Garden.

In the makeshift stable, a hundred war horses put their heads into the trough and were eating the food in big mouthfuls.

The feed for these war horses is beans and corn.

Normally these war horses eat grass, but tomorrow they will be competing with the imperial guards, so naturally they have to eat better.

The soldiers in charge of taking care of the war horses poured the feed, looked after them for a while, and then left.

And shortly after the soldiers left.

A young eunuch suddenly came to the horse trough carrying a cloth bag.

He observed it for a while.

After making sure that no one was paying attention, he put down the cloth bag on his shoulder, opened it, and prepared to pour the grass inside into the trough.

In order to feed a hundred war horses, there were quite a few troughs. It would obviously take a long time for the young eunuch to feed all the horses by himself, so the young eunuch was not acting alone.

The ones who poured the most food into these troughs were the imperial guards.

However, the little eunuch was just about to pour food into the first trough.

Very quickly.

Waves of orderly footsteps rang out from around the stable.

When the hundred people surrounded the entire stable.

The young eunuch and his accomplices realized that something was wrong.

The little eunuch crawled directly under the trough.

However, many of the imperial guards drew their swords and fought back directly.

"Ding!" "Ding!"

Rhythmic footsteps and uniform movements.

Among the one hundred people in the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, everyone held a crescent halberd.

Under the moonlight, the cold light shines.

The imperial guards were all frightened.

"What do you want to do? My Wu family has guarded the palace for generations. You peasants, do you want to rebel?"

"Damn it! A bunch of Jing'an Marquis's servants dared to attack us. They are simply courting death!"

"I am the heir of the Linchuan Marquisate. How dare you do this?"

Some people among the imperial guards started cursing.

But these curses would not make the hundred people retreat at all.

"Your Majesty has commanded! Lay down your weapons, or I will kill you without mercy!"

Xia Ju walked forward and said hatefully.

Following his figure, the hundred people continued to move forward, lowering the crescent halberds in their hands, which was a gesture of launching an attack.

At this moment, each of these 100 people showed determination on their faces. As long as someone dared not lay down their weapons, they would act according to Ye Chen's decree.

"Bang!"

Weapons were thrown to the ground, and none of the imperial guards dared to resist.

But they were still rude in their words, and many people kept cursing.

Xia Ju frowned slightly.

The curses from these imperial guards were truly awful.

But it was really difficult for him to do it.

After all, these are all children of aristocratic families, and although he is a retainer of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, his real identity is just that of an ordinary farmer, and he has inferiority complex in his bones.

Moreover, these imperial guards have already dropped their weapons and stopped resisting. If Xia Ju orders his men to take action again, and this matter gets out, the impact will not be very good.

Xia Ju was not worried about his own safety, but was worried about the impact this matter would have on Ye Chen.

After all, his master at this moment is Ye Chen, and he has to consider Ye Chen in everything.

But at this moment.

"Xia Ju, what are you doing standing here? Slap those who speak rudely to me!"

"Beat them until they can't curse anymore!"

A voice suddenly sounded in Xia Ju's ears.

Xia Ju was slightly stunned, then his face showed surprise. He quickly turned around and saw Ye Chen, and immediately knelt down to salute.

"Long live your majesty!"

"Get up! Send someone to slap me in the face! Remember, if you encounter this kind of thing again, no matter who it is, they will be slapped in the face!"

Ye Chen waved his hand, his face looked extremely cold and his methods were extremely tough.

The people in the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion are the armed force he wants to win over, and also the power he will cultivate in the palace in the future.

Therefore, when these imperial guards scolded the people from Marquis Jing'an's Mansion, it was equivalent to slapping him in the face.

Simply seeking death!

"Yes!"

Xia Ju nodded vigorously and immediately went down to arrange for someone to slap the imperial guard in the face.

As soon as the imperial guards saw Ye Chen, their voices immediately disappeared.

Followed by.

It was the sound of "pa pa!" from slapping someone's mouth.

Ye Chen did not let any of those who had spoken rudely before go.

Those imperial guards who did not make a fuss were frightened when they saw their companions in such a state. They all trembled and dared not say anything.

"Qiu'er, take all these people to death row and interrogate them overnight! These people dared to tamper with the warhorses in tomorrow's competition. The evidence is irrefutable, and they naturally deserve to be punished. Therefore, punish these people severely. Don't hesitate!"

"Yes!"

Shen Qiu immediately took the man away.

Ye Chen then said to Xia Ju: "Go check the warhorse to see if it's okay."

"Yes!"

Xia Ju immediately started to check.

soon.

Xia Ju came to Ye Chen.

"Your Majesty, the war horses are all fine."

"I'm glad the warhorse is okay."

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xia Ju said, "Your Majesty, I discovered that the fodder fed to those war horses was mixed with a little bit of gold juice and croton powder."

"Ok?"
