Compared to the quiet rear, the area around the front hall was not aligned with the calm atmosphere inside the palace Particularly inside the Royal Palace, in the room deep behind the palace's red walls, there was a harsh and heavy atuard outside the roo discussed inside
”It is uncertain when the Great Prince will be able to return,” Gong Dian said distastefully He was the retuning Commander of the Imperial Army and responsible for the safety of the entire Royal Palace
In this world, there were notDian stand properly beside theht noas one of thereat dou Rebellion Presently, he was Coiven command of all the troops under heaven He stroked a teacup with one hand as his eyes focused slightly For a long ti Dian could not endure such silence He eventually couldn't help but prod hily wake fro to the capital soon The Great Prince probably will not return until the beginning of spring”
He glanced at Gong Dian A coh his eyes After a moment, he said in a low voice, ”What exactly do you want to ask? Even if the Great Prince returned, he would presu by the Emperor to prepare for the Northern expedition What exactly do you want to ask?”
Gong Dian was silent Both he and Ye Zhong were the Emperor's most trusted confidants The entire Royal Palace seemed peaceful, but there was a hidden uessed that this ure that just left Jingdou not long ago Otherwise, Ye Zhong would not be waiting all day in the Royal Palace instead of overseeing affairs in the Bureau of Military Affairs
”What are you waiting for?” Gong Dian asked, looking at Ye Zhong
”I a said this, he thought of the E up his mind A sliver of worry and unease rose involuntarily to his eyes Given Ye Zhong's status, power, and strength, there were few things that could make hi Gong Dian to see it
Gong Dian had already seen it and knew that he had finally guessed right It seemed peaceful around the Royal Palace In reality, hidden currents were surging The entire Ihest alert Gong Dian had only received orders from the internal court and had no idea what the Eainst In the e frodou Garrison Only now did he know that shi+ Fei had led 15,000 Jingdou Garrison soldiers in a dou It see, but it also see for a an to an to dou, various factions began to prepare
Only the Qing Ee formation within a day Presently, there was only one person orth it for the Emperor to confront so carefully and had the power to make the Emperor focus so much of his attention
There was only one person that could , feel involuntarily uneasy and worried as he waited for the Eether Gong Dian finally confirainst Director Chen
”Why?” Gong Dian's throat felt dry He sat down beside Ye Zhong and drank a cup of cold tea He was still unable to extinguish the burning fear in his heart
The Idou Garrison and the Bureau of Military Affairs ithout question, an action targeting the Overwatch Council in Jingdou Regardless of whether it was the Eht of the fact that the person they were facing was Chen Pingping, none of thehest echelon of the Qing Kingdo, that withered old cripple, held in his hands Although he was no longer the Director of the Overwatch Council, he had been a king in the darkness for decades Once he was caught in danger, no one knehat kind of power he could call on
WhatDian feel the ry at the Emperor, was the fact that he couldn't find any excuse or reason for the court to ainst Director Chen
Was it only because his achievements threatened the ruler? That didn't make any sense If it was so, the Eo Did Chen Pingping have treasonous thoughts? Everyone in the world knew that Director Chen was the most loyal subject by the Emperor's side If it were not for him, the Emperor would have died countless ti Dian needed theto think the Eardless of what the world thought of the Overwatch Council or of Chen Pingping, the Overwatch Council originated as the E had always been the Eer of the court falling into chaos to do such an illogical thing? If this wasn't beingsat by the little table and was silent for a long tih he held countless troops and soldiers in his hand, the person they faced noas Chen Pingping, the entire Overwatch Council, so he still felt a shakiness and fear in the depths of his heart
Chen Pingping's reputation was too s common officials were able to understand Decades of history had long proven that anyone anted to use sinister plots to defeat Chen Pingping would eventually reatness, had been one of those people Rebellions like that of the Eldest Princess and old Qin fareater jokes under Director Chen and the E took a deep breath There was a sliver of unswerving determination on his square and dark face ”What you need to do is to protect the safety of the Palace What I need to do is steady the troops of the Qing Kingdos, there will naturally be someone to do them”
”You will have to attack Otherwise, the Elanced orry and unease at his elder brother disciple Chen Pingping had been able to plant a 20-year-long spy in the old Qin fa's people in the present Ye fazhou Arht if the Emperor truly broke with old Director Chen, nocourt would suffer irreversible dae because of the instability

The Emperor is muddleheaded!”
This was the third time he had said that the E Dian's reaction was indeed rather intense However, it was not his fault Any person who kneas actually happening in court would all feel a chill in their hearts If the , then it was also targeting the Overwatch Council
”Fan Xian?” Ye Zhong suddenly opened his eyes ”He probably just left Dongyi Once everything is done, what can he changed? Even though Chen Pingping passed on his position to him, in the end, this is what the E to have ideas of revenge against his father for his old superior?”
Gong Dian thought about it carefully and slowly nodded this head These two ht Fan Xian was able to take over the Overwatch Council because of the E more than pass on his experience They had co, as well as the story o that this dou Garrison south,” Ye Zhong said slowly ”I just hope the ripples thisDian very straightforwardly shattered Codoood and that the Qing Kingdom would be able to maintain its stability and harmony and be able to ith steady and powerful steps toward the brightest and lorious day However, everyone knew that the battle between the Ee chasm in the nation
