five days later.

When the convoy arrived in Kaifeng, Jiang Chen signaled everyone to rest in the city and find an inn to stay.

At noon, Jiang Chen, Yun Luo, and Lan Xiaodie came to the biggest restaurant in the city for dinner.

After tasting a few mouthfuls of special dishes, Yun Luo nodded slightly and commented:

"Although they are not as good as the imperial chefs in the palace, these dishes are quite unique, at least better than the restaurants in Kyushu."

Lan Xiaodie also nodded in agreement.

While the three of them were chatting casually, a table not far away from them caught Yun Luo's attention.

Around that table sat three people dressed as Confucian scholars, talking in a low voice:

"Have you heard? The emperor is about to abdicate."

"Of course I heard that. As soon as the notice came out, there was an uproar in the streets. It is said that because of illness, Zen was located in Shenhou. No, from now on, you can no longer call Shenhou, and you should call him Your Majesty."

"It doesn't matter if you retire. If you are wise and powerful, and love your name like a child, it will definitely be better than..."

Saying this, the man stopped talking in good time, so as not to commit a taboo.

After hearing what the three of them said, Yun Luo couldn't sit still any longer, stood up suddenly, walked quickly to the side of the three, with a sullen face, and asked sharply:

"What did you just say? The emperor abdicated?"

She is currently cultivated to an extraordinary level, and at this time, her aura erupted, forming a powerful oppressive force. The three Confucian scholars could not resist it, but they were immediately shocked, their faces turned pale, and their hearts trembled with fear.

One of them, who was a bit more courageous, could still speak, and stammered, replied:

"No, it's nothing, just got the news that the emperor is in the God of Tiedan due to illness."

"Impossible. Brother Huang has always been in good health, how could he suddenly abdicate due to illness?"

Yun Luo frowned, and immediately realized that Zhu Wushi had conspired against him. He didn't expect his uncle to move so fast. Then he thought of something and asked again:

"What about Cao Zhengchun, is there any news about him?"

When the Confucian scholar heard him call the emperor the emperor's brother, he immediately realized that the woman in front of him was extremely noble, and he didn't dare to neglect him, so he quickly replied: "It is said that the dog disappeared half a month ago."

Yun Luo didn't expect such a thing to happen in the palace not long after he left the palace.

She was so anxious that she turned around and returned to Jiang Chen's side, and asked anxiously:

"I don't know how the emperor is doing now? What should we do?"

Jiang Chen held her hand and comforted her softly:

"Don't worry, Zhu Wushi doesn't dare to risk the world's shame to kill the emperor, at least your emperor brother is safe now."

Yunluo felt a little relieved when he heard the words, although he didn't know what method Zhu Wushi used to force the emperor to abdicate, but since he didn't directly launch a mutiny, it shows that he still has some scruples in his heart.

Of course, after Zhu Wushi is firmly on the throne, it is not certain whether the emperor's brother will die of illness.

Jiang Chen didn't expect that Zhu Wushi's actions would be so fast, and he would become the emperor directly, much faster than the original plot.

After thinking for a while, he said: "At first, I wanted to take Liu Shengdan and Ma Shou and them as witnesses, and go back to Beijing to accuse Zhu Wushi, but now that he has ascended the throne, there is no need to do such things.

Why don't the three of us hurry up and go back to the capital first to see the situation. "

Yun Luo was worried about the situation in the palace, so he would not refuse when he heard the words, so he nodded immediately:

"good."

After the three hurriedly finished their lunch, they returned to the inn to give a few orders, and then rushed to the capital without stopping.

On the way, Yun Luo kept waving his horsewhip, fearing that if he took a step too late, the emperor would be killed by Tie Dan Shenhou.

The next morning, the three arrived in the capital.

Because he couldn't figure out the situation in the palace, Yun Luo first went to the uncle's mansion to inquire about the situation.

Uncle Guo is the elder brother of the Empress Dowager, with a respected status, he knows the situation in the palace quite well.

He pointed out that the emperor is now imprisoned in a separate courtyard of the palace, and outsiders have no way of contacting him.

As for the Empress Dowager, the situation is fine, Zhu Wushi did not make things difficult for her, she is still in the Compassionate Ning Palace.

After Yun Luo figured out the situation, he left in a hurry, left the Uncle Guo's mansion, and said to Jiang Chen:

"Let's go to the palace first, rescue the emperor's brother, and then settle the score with the emperor's uncle."

"good."

The three performed lightness kung fu and sneaked directly into the palace.

Although there are more guards with high martial arts skills in the palace than before, but with the physical skills of the three of them, naturally no one can find out.

Soon, they found a remote and secluded courtyard according to the direction indicated by the uncle of the country.

From a distance, I saw several men in purple guarding around the courtyard.

When the three of them descended from the sky and stepped into the other courtyard, the men in purple immediately surrounded them, without saying a word, they drew their swords and cut them off.

This other courtyard is now a forbidden place, without the token of the God of Tiedan, whoever breaks in will be killed.

Yun Luo's figure flashed, bringing up a series of phantoms, like a phoenix passing through several people suddenly.

Pum-pum-pum!

Then a series of muffled sounds sounded, and those men in purple fell down one after another.

Yun Luo ignored the guards and went straight to the main room of the other courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the emperor sitting reclined on the armchair without any image, his hair was disheveled, his eyes were bleary, and he was still holding a jug in his hand.

She frowned slightly, but she also understood why Brother Huang used wine to relieve his worries, walked forward, and asked with concern:

"Brother Huang, are you alright?"

After the emperor heard the voice, he glanced lazily at Yun Luo, hiccupped, and said with a silly smile:

"Yunluo, you, were you imprisoned too?"

Following his words, a strong smell of alcohol immediately filled the air.

Looking at his drunken eyes, Yun Luo explained helplessly, "Brother Huang, I'm here to save you."

"help me?"

The emperor suddenly laughed, and shouted like crazy:

"I am the emperor, the Supreme Ninety-Five, and I don't need others to save me."

Seeing him go crazy with alcohol, Yun Luo felt sour in his heart. The former imperial brother was high-spirited, but now he was imprisoned, and suddenly fell into the abyss. No wonder the other party couldn't accept it.

Jiang Chen saw this scene after entering the room, and slapped him casually.

A feminine palm force pierced through the air and hit the emperor's abdomen.

Peng!

The emperor was startled, and then suddenly bent down and spit out a big mouthful of wine, his whole body became much more sober.

He stood up straight, wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at the three of Yunluo, frowned, and reprimanded:

"Yun Luo, you're so nonsense, you dare to barge into my place. It would be bad if Zhu ignores you and finds out."

Yun Luo comforted:

"Brother Huang, we are here to rescue you. Don't worry, Jiang Chen and I will definitely rescue you."

The emperor shook his head with a wry smile, his face full of despair:

"Even if we can get out of the palace, where can we escape to? Now the whole world belongs to him, and there is no place for me at all."

He has worked hard for many years, cultivating Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Wushi to compete. He thought he could stabilize the situation, and then slowly develop his own power. Unexpectedly, Zhu Wushi was like a thunderbolt, and wiped out the strength of Dongchang. Without the slightest resistance.

Without Cao Zhengchun, no matter whether it was the officials of the court or the soldiers of the army, they all supported Zhu Wushi as the emperor. Except for a few personal eunuchs, he didn't even have anyone who could use him.

The emperor felt that he had suffered a crushing defeat, and he couldn't even afford to confront the idea of ​​ignoring Zhu.
