Couards, third rankHis personnel file was in the Bureau of Military Affairs, his manor was in the south of the city, his servants were chosen by the Overwatch Council, and his salary was drawn from the internal courtHe had never been to the Bureau of Military Affairs for aor even taken a step into the old military ya military was distant

His faues, and social peers were all people the Emperor allowed him to interactThe Eates to his belt, so he kept the people close as well

If Zhang Deqing rebelled, the Eic endNo one thought Zhang Deqing would rebelNot just because of his faenerations of loyal officials, it was because, after all these years, everyone had becos

He ate the Emperor's foodHe listened to the Emperor's orders

Sir Zhang would not praise the E or enter the Palace occasionally to the find an excuse to fawn on the EmperorHe would carry out each of the E on the night dou ran red with blood

When it caed such a sensitive position, no faction dared come into contact with hiht for power, they didn't dare to do soTo co was to touch the crotch of their father's trousers

Thus, in officialdo was like an invisible manUntil such a critical ht of him

After the Qing E Mountain, the focus of Sir Zhang Deqing's loyalty shi+fted with unusual precision and speed to the eure was i

He was loyal to the eer because the Emperor had announced to the world before he went to worshi+p heaven that Qing Kingdoer from behind the curtain

…

…

After reading many years of the Overwatch Council's surveillance reports, Fan Xian believed that Sir Zhang was truly a rarely seen blindly loyal officialYan Bingyun also ca officials of the Overwatch Council could guess that the EHowever, the EoneThey had nowhere to startThey could only use his loyalty as an opening

Yan Bingyun was here to pick up Zhang Deqing's hand and begin a heaven- dance of loyalty

Zhang Deqing was already oldThe bags beneath his eyes were somewhat thickPerhaps this was because he had been worried constantly these few days and had not rested wellAt this tih his pupils above the eye bags

Yan Bingyun cauards yamen and handed the copied posthu's decision

To recreate the Qing Emperor's posthumous edict in such a short time proved that the Overwatch Council's artistic level had successfullythe previous Emperor's willIt proved Fan Xian's devil h Sir Yan was loyal to the monarch and patriotic to his country, he did not believe in holding onto mechanical bureaucracy when it came to the details

The so-called posthumous edict was a letter the Emperor had written, in a very tranquil tone that seeh the affairs of this world, to the e Mountain had been surroundedIn the letter, he brought up thethe Crown Prince as well as his and the Eldest Princess's wicked role in the a MountainAt the same tidou, the power of regent was to be given to himFurthermore, he ordered everyone to entrust, without question, Fan Xian with the authority to choose the next ruler of Qing Kingdom

The lines of tears flowed out fro known that the E the E of emotions in his heart

”This posthu suddenly raised his head and stared into Yan Bingyun's eyes

Sir Yan junior felt even more confident that the plan he and Fan Xian had ardless of how one looked at it, the Commander, as famous for his loyalty, would stand on his side

He quietly said, ”She has already seen it”

”Then, as the firework signal fro stared at Yan Bingyun

”The edict ordered Sir Fan junior to help the eyun did not panicAs long as Fan Xian's entry into the Palace was successful and he captured the Crown Prince and the Eldest Princess, there was no reason anything should go wrong with the city gate guard”The fireas the order that it has already begun”

”I can't trust you based it on just a posthu said”I need to see the eer”

”Understandably,” Yan Bingyun answered cleanly with a frosty faceIn reality, he had no idea of the situation in the Palace, including whether the eer was dead or alivePresently, he had to answer boldly and confidently

”You codoer, you should follow the previous Emperor's posthumous edict”

Each of Yan Bingyun's words hung onto the Eh Northern Qi, his long sleeves had dancedHe was a powerful figure who could lie and get aith itHowever, for these few years, he had been doing paperwork in the Council and had grown distant froovernuns, he had to convince the Couards, it could not be considered a return to his original work

”There is trouble in the Palace,” Zhang Deqing said after a ht now”

Yan Bingyun's brows furrowed slightlyZhang Deqing's gaze hardened slightly as if he had sensed soet that the Euarding Jingdou's gates is your responsibility!”

After these words were uttered, Zhang Deqing fell silent again like he was considering soive me some time”

Stalling? Yan Bingyun faintly felt that so not convinced by this posthudou? He didn't know that the Eldest Princess and Crown Prince had already escaped from the PalaceIn order to protect Fan Xian's entry into the Palace, if the 13 city gate guards remained neutral, it was not an unacceptable resultIn fact, it was even better than the result he had expected

Since he wanted to stall, then he could stallYan Bingyun sat down calroup of spears pointed at him, he sat peacefully with a calm expression

Seeing his expression, Zhang Deqing was involuntarily startled, It was as if he had not expected for him to be so confident

…

…

…

No one expected that the stall would go on for so longYan Bingyun was trapped in the city gate ya circumstancesWithout hot tea to drink and a tune to listen to, it was difficult to waitWhat was most uncomfortable was the pressure all around him

He was cold and hungryHe listened to the occasional sound of killing in JingdouSo that probably came from a fire someone lit somewhere

Zhang Deqing did not have the tiate departs he had to handleHe was holding the sword at his waist and walking along the top of the city walls in the darknessThe eye bags beneath his eyes had ht flashi+ng in his eyes was focused on each and every ave out orders to suppress his own subordinates, strictly prohibiting thedouThe 3,000 soldiers guarded Jingdou's nine city gates tightly

In his eyes, the so-called power of righteousness that Fan Xian led was just a coup d'étatAlthough, he had to adhtHowever, he unconsciously believed that everyone who attacked the Royal Palace was a bad person

Codou did not have a rich historyIt was more covered with the traces of ate was not h it was not as tall as that of the Royal Palace, if it was actually used for defense, its various allocations were er

Zhang Deqing stood on the city wall like he was absorbing some boundless power froive hie to make a choice

He stood still in front of one lookout and gazed in the direction of the distant Royal PalaceThe chaos in Jingdou was gradually caloverns and co the people

He didn't know that, at this moment, the two main conspirators of the revolt in the Palace, the Great Prince, and Fan Xian, were also standing on the Palace wall looking to the distant city gatesA faint worry flashed through his eyesIf things continued like this, he would have to accept that edict

Perhaps this was not a bad ideaHowever, Zhang Deqing heard the sound of carriage wheels rolling over the stone pathThis voice rang out very clear in his ears

”It's the Sanjiao Stone Path approaching the city gate”
