The empress disliked my achievements for overshadowing her own, so she turned her attention to the N

Outside the Fengtian Hall, the officials stared at each other.

They still remembered Chen Nan's speech in the hall.

It must be said that everyone knows that the reform system proposed by Chen Nan is very friendly to ordinary people.

But that only applies to ordinary people.

Conversely, it would be entirely detrimental to them.

In the end, all the ministers' eyes fell on Chen Nan.

Chen Nan ignored everyone and walked directly out of the palace.

For a moment, no one dared to confront Chen Nan and could only slink behind him.

When the officials arrived at the palace gate, they were greeted by the sight of the Northern Wei army, clad in gold armor.

The courtiers were completely dumbfounded; they had no idea how such a large army could be found in this place.

Most of the military generals were watching Chen Nan. They all knew that in the current Northern Wei Dynasty, only Chen Nan had this kind of power.

Moreover, he was the only one who dared to so brazenly summon 10,000 troops and place them at the palace gate.

As for the civil officials, they had never seen such a scene before, and some of the more timid ones were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground.

However, Qin Qingmin, a civil official, stepped forward and blocked Chen Nan's path, loudly questioning, "What is the meaning of this, Prince Zhennan?"

Chen Nan asked, puzzled, "What does Qin Academy mean by this?"

Qin Qingmin questioned, "Does the Prince of Zhennan intend to rebel by mobilizing a large army outside the palace?"

Chen Nan chuckled to himself. He realized that Qin Qingmin wasn't very capable, but he was quite good at labeling people.

He did indeed gather the army, but honestly, did he really intend to rebel?

To be honest, he had only been in Northern Wei for half a month, but had been in Daqian for several years.

It would definitely be much easier to rebel in the Daqian era than in the Northern Wei.

Moreover, Chen Nan did not have any intention of rebelling when Wu Fengluan demoted him and stripped him of his title.

Now, just because they mobilized a large army to surround the palace, they have been accused of rebellion.

Chen Nan glanced at the ten thousand soldiers in front of him, with Wu Xu and Mo Bai standing at the very front.

Mo Bai seemed very nervous; Chen Nan could even see his trembling hands.

"Prince Zhennan? Why are you silent? Do you really intend to rebel?"

Seeing that Chen Nan remained silent for a long time, Qin Qingmin thought that she had completely controlled him.

The voice unconsciously rose a few decibels.

Chen Nan frowned: "What does Qin Academy want me to say? Does it want me to admit that I'm going to rebel?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Dajun again and remarked, "I must say, it really does look like a coup d'état."

"Ha! The Prince of Zhennan is rebelling!!! The Prince of Zhennan is rebelling!!!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qingmin shouted repeatedly.

He was just trying to provoke Chen Nan, hoping to get him to admit that the army was brought by him.

In this way, he can make a fuss about this matter.

The final reforms might all fall through.

But he never expected that Chen Nan would be so foolish as to directly utter words like "rebellion".

He sneered and said mockingly, "Your Highness, let's see who can protect you this time."

Chen Nan chuckled lightly: "Qin Academy, then let's wait and see."

Qin Qingmin was unaware, but Chen Nan knew very well that this place was the heart of the imperial palace.

There are countless guards and experts inside, both openly and secretly.

His men, capable of completely surrounding the palace entrances and exits with ten thousand men, naturally knew that this matter could not be kept from the Empress Dowager of Northern Wei.

Although he couldn't hide it, his men still brought the army over.

Most importantly, even now, all the ministers who wanted to leave have been forced to stay.

Not a single guard came forward to convey the imperial decree, and the Empress Dowager received absolutely no information.

Chen Nan then understood that the Empress Dowager was relinquishing power to him and no longer intended to manage the matter.

Thinking of this, Chen Nan smiled wickedly: "Qin Academy, the army was indeed summoned here by me."

Upon hearing this, Qin Qingmin became excited and interrupted him repeatedly, saying, "What? Is the Prince of Zhennan admitting that he wants to rebel?"

Immediately afterwards, he shouted loudly, "Where are the palace eunuchs? Chen Nan has led a rebellion outside the palace!!!"

Qin Qingmin repeated the sentence three times.

As soon as he finished speaking, two eunuchs dressed in golden armor walked through the army and finally stopped in front of the army formation.

The two men looked serious, and one of them asked, "Who was making such a fuss here just now?"

Qin Qingmin strode up to the man, his expression excited, and pointed at Chen Nan: "This man is named Chen Nan, and he is about to lead his army to besiege the palace."

"It was I who first discovered and reported it."

Even under these circumstances, Qin Qingmin still didn't forget to mention himself.

The two followed his finger and saw Chen Nan's sneer.

He gave a perfunctory reply: "Sir, this matter is not under our jurisdiction."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to return to his original position.

Seeing this, Qin Qingmin grabbed one of them and said anxiously, "Don't go! Chen Nan is going to rebel! As royal eunuchs, aren't you going to do nothing?"

Unexpectedly, with this one move, the eunuch he had pulled drew his sword and held it horizontally in front of his chest.

He shouted, "Sir, please have some self-respect. This matter is not within our jurisdiction."

"If you dare to make any more noise, don't blame us for being ruthless."

Two sentences left Qin Qingmin stunned on the spot.

He couldn't understand when a prince would dare to lead a large army to besiege the palace.

Even more outrageous is that the eunuch actually said that this was not within his jurisdiction.

Chen Nan slowly walked up to the two eunuchs and reassured them, "Don't worry, the matter will be resolved soon."

Upon seeing that the visitor was Chen Nan, the two put on friendly smiles: "Your Highness is too kind. We are right here. If Your Highness needs anything, just give us a call."

This scene shattered all of Qin Qingmin's illusions.

He finally understood that this matter was not outside the jurisdiction of the eunuchs.

They only made up an excuse because the person in charge of the troops was Chen Nan.

"Brothers!" Chen Nan suddenly shouted.

The ten thousand soldiers simultaneously raised their weapons and shouted, "General Chen is mighty!"

The simultaneous shouts of ten thousand soldiers created a truly impressive spectacle.

Qin Qingmin seized the opportunity and strolled over to the two eunuchs.

His voice trembled slightly: "Chen Nan also made a commotion here just now. It wasn't just him; the entire army of ten thousand was also making a commotion here. Are you two not going to do anything about this?"

Faced with his question, the two of them turned around at the same time and started whistling, completely ignoring Qin Qingmin's question.

He finally understood that leading troops to besiege the palace was not important, and making a lot of noise was even less important.

The important thing is to see who the other party is.

He raised his voice a second earlier and was immediately interrupted.

But when Chen Nan tried to rally the troops' morale in front of them, the two of them pretended to be stupid.

Such differential treatment struck at the straw that Qin Qingmin was grasping at.
