After Princess Xuanxue came down from the mountain, the whole capital was in chaos.

Chapter 160 Do you want to rebel?

Because of his marriage, Jiang Jun took a vacation at home. He did not expect that when he was on duty for the first time after his marriage, something big happened in the palace.

Because he had taken the yin path, he would inevitably be weaker and more likely to see ghosts, so he asked Yuan Qi for a jade amulet for protection.

Early that morning, he handed over to the deputy commander as usual, and then led the assembled imperial troops to patrol the palace, specifically checking the palace's protective formation, which was as stable as ever.

After entering the Xuanzheng Hall for a final inspection and finding nothing abnormal, he led his men to stand guard in front of the hall.

Before daybreak, the courtiers came to attend court, and everyone entered the Xuanzheng Hall in twos and threes.

Xiao Yi followed Xiao Zhen into the Xuanzheng Hall as usual. Jiang Jun discovered that when the two of them passed by him, the self-defense Kunlun Jade amulet suddenly became hot.

Jiang Juncai doesn't have yin and yang eyes, so he can't see anything. Although he has high martial arts skills, he is not a practitioner and can't feel anything abnormal. However, if the jade talisman is hot, it means that someone has ghost or evil energy.

He stood at the door and looked in. Everyone was talking in low voices, and everyone looked calm and calm.

Recalling the feeling just now, Jiang Jun felt that when Prince Xiao Yi and His Highness Xiao Zhen passed by him, their jade talismans were hot. There must be something wrong with one of them.

Now he was twenty steps away from the two of them, and the jade talisman in his arms was still faintly hot.

This matter was no small matter. As the commander of the Forbidden Army, he had the responsibility to investigate all potential safety hazards.

He stared at the door for a long time, then decided to go in and take a walk to see who had the problem.

He wanted to find out before the emperor came, and then report to the emperor.

He walked into the hall.

On weekdays, he only stands guard at the entrance of the main hall and rarely goes in.

As soon as he came in, everyone looked at him unconsciously, and the alert people had already noticed that there seemed to be something wrong.

He walked past everyone, and finally stood in front of Prince Xiao Yi and His Highness Xiao Zhen. Sure enough, the jade talisman was hot again.

But whether it is the Crown Prince or the Fifth Highness who has the problem, he is not sure. Both of them are practitioners, and both are rare cultivation geniuses in Rongguo. Whether they bring evil spirits to the palace or are controlled by evil spirits, it is possible, and the threat is very high. Big, not to be underestimated.

Just then, the emperor came.

The eunuch's voice sounded behind him.

When the emperor saw Jiang Juncai in the main hall, he asked, "Commander Jiang, what happened?"

Jiang Juncai stood up and clasped his fists to report: "To report to the Emperor, there is an evil spirit in the hall, but I am not sure whether it is on His Highness the Crown Prince or His Highness the Fifth Highness."

The prince was shocked and turned pale. He immediately knelt on the ground and tried his best to explain: "Father, there are no evil spirits in my body. I am neither controlled by evil spirits nor have I brought any evil spirits into the palace. Please be aware of this."

As he spoke, he also took out the jade talisman he carried with him, which was also given by Yuan Qi: "Father, please see, this is the self-defense jade talisman that Taoist Yuan Qi gave to my son. If there is any problem with my son, the jade talisman will be hot."

The emperor knows that Jiang Jun is a very responsible person and will not talk nonsense. Although he is young, he has not made any mistakes in the past few years since he took office, except for the time when the palace formation was breached.

The emperor frowned slightly and stared at Xiao Yi and Xiao Zhen. The great eunuch understood immediately and stepped forward to take the jade talisman from Xiao Yi's hand and handed it to the emperor.

Although the emperor is not a Taoist, he still believes in Taoism and often takes elixirs. There are also national teachers around him who lecture on scriptures and Taoism. He also knows a little about Taoist runes. When he sees the runes on the jade talisman, he will know what they are used for. of.

He looked through it and asked the eunuch to return the jade talisman to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Zhen said nothing in the audience, his expression gradually became cold and solemn, black energy began to surge around his body, and his eyes showed a fierce look. He stepped forward in small steps.

Jiang Jun realized something was wrong and subconsciously protected the emperor behind him. He also pulled out his glazed sword and pointed it at Xiao Zhen, and yelled loudly: "Your Highness, what do you want to do? Come here!"

The Imperial Guards on duty outside broke in.

Xiao Zhen twisted his neck, his face became even more distorted, and his expression was ferocious: "Father, you are already so old, you should have given up your seat long ago. Look at how many white hair you have. I really want to sit in this seat." Die."

The emperor was trembling with anger and pointed at him and reprimanded him: "You are so impudent! You dare to plot rebellion! Why don't you retreat!?"

Xiao Yi, as the only practitioner in the palace who was qualified and capable to confront Xiao Zhen, stood in front of the emperor with Jiang Juncai.

Xiao Yi discovered a few days ago that Xiao Zhen is not as docile and low-key as before, and he is no longer willing to be his right-hand man or his lackey.

He solemnly reminded Xiao Zhen: "Fifth brother, you'd better think clearly about what you are doing."

Xiao Zhen suddenly turned around and faced the completely bewildered minister. He raised his hands in the air and laughed twice: "My father is old and takes pills from time to time to manage political affairs. Instead of tiring myself out like this, why not?" Give up the throne to me as soon as possible. As for the prince, he is cowardly and incompetent, and he will never be able to control the government in the future. You two had better give up the throne, and I can still give you a way to survive, otherwise..."

The black energy around him was churning even more fiercely, and there was a small bottle in his hand. The black energy in the small bottle was even stronger, and everyone could even hear a strange and violent sound coming from it.

The emperor heard that on the day when the palace formation was breached, he also heard such a violent cry. It was the voice of a ghost. He stared at the bottle and asked, "What is that? Do you want to rebel?"

The Great General Wang, Xiao Yi's uncle Feng Aotian, also stood up to protect the emperor with Xiao Yi, and sternly rebuked Xiao Zhen: "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, had better think clearly, if you take action today, you will die without a burial place! "

Xiao Zhen's smile became even crazier: "Will I survive if I don't do anything today? I've had enough for a long time, let's die!"

He opened the seal on the bottle with his other hand, and the evil spirits and fierce ghosts inside rushed out and ran around in the hall, attacking everyone they saw.

The Forbidden Army can fight with mortals with open swords and spears, but they have no resistance to creatures like ghosts. They wave the knives in their hands, but the knives pass through the black mist and cannot cause any harm to the black mist.

Fortunately, Xiao Yi was a practitioner and could resist for a while. Jiang Juncai had a glazed sword and a protective jade talisman in his hand. He threw the jade talisman to the emperor: "Your Majesty, take it. If you have this thing on your body, evil spirits will not dare to approach."

Xiao Zhen leaned against a pillar and muttered something. As if he wanted to understand, the evil spirits let go of the panicked courtiers and attacked the emperor.

Xiao Zhen also mocked him crazily: "Father, I just said that I asked you to give up the throne because you didn't know what to do and you wanted to die on your own. You can't blame me."

"Bastard!" The emperor held the jade talisman in his hand, and with Xiao Yi and Jiang Juncai around him, those evil spirits could only attack from the outside.

As soon as the evil ghost touched the glazed sword in Jiang Juncai's hand, it immediately dissipated.

Jiang Juncai saw this and waved even harder.
