Star Sea Hunter
Chapter 537 Defense of the Imperial Capital
The Imperial Palace, Juntian Palace.
In the empty hall, all the officials had already taken their positions, and all the officials who were qualified to make a pilgrimage have come!Nearly 2000 people gathered together, and it didn't look crowded at all!
Despite the large number of people, there was no sound in Nuo Da's hall, so quiet that one could hear a needle drop on the ground!
The emperor hadn't arrived yet, and the throne was surrounded by heavily armed court guards.Occasionally, someone would glance at it quietly, and then quickly lower their heads, for fear of being noticed.
Although these guys have already made some psychological preparations for the outcome of the war, the progress of the Starlight Empire is still far beyond their expectations!
Since the establishment of the Shuofeng Empire, although there have been several times, it has been attacked by powerful enemies near the imperial capital!But the emperor of the Xinghui Empire is the first one who can really enter the Tianhua Starfield!
Has a superpower that has been passed down for thousands of years just become history?Then what will their future be like?
According to rumors, this emperor is not considered a cruel and bloodthirsty person, so maybe he still has the opportunity to serve the new dynasty and continue to hold power?As long as he attached himself sincerely, he shouldn't make things difficult for himself.
Many people think so in their hearts!But those Zhu family's children, as well as those officials who were too close to Zhu's family, their complexions are not very good at this time!
When Zhu Zhaoyuan was in power, they shared the most power and benefits, and they did a lot of unreasonable things!No matter how lenient the emperor is, he might not let them go!
Of course, they still had a little luck in their hearts.After all, the emperor is too young, and his foundation is not too solid!It may be difficult to control such a large empire suddenly.Then, in order to quickly stabilize the court situation, relying heavily on them, the veterans, has become an inevitable choice!Maybe at that time, there will be a lot of rewards to buy people's hearts!
Although our hands are a bit dirty, everyone has a share. He can't kill all of us officials, right?The law does not blame the public, this is common sense that any high-ranking person understands.I believe he is no exception!
Thinking in this way, some people's courage grew again unconsciously.
Half an hour later, Yun Haoyu finally stepped into the main entrance of the hall surrounded by the guards.
At the end of the hall, the tall throne is in the distance.
He took a deep breath and walked slowly, ignoring the reactions of the courtiers on both sides, walking steadily.
A few minutes later, he stepped on the jade steps.On it, the resplendent and majestic throne is within reach!
This supreme position used to belong to Fang Xutang, then Fang Yuqing, and then Zhu Zhaoyuan!But from now on, it only belongs to me!
After quietly looking at it, he sat down logically!
The throne is extremely wide, and sitting in the middle can't reach the armrests on both sides, and can't touch the backrest, it's empty, and it really feels like a lonely family!Under the body is a thick cushion made of golden brocade, which feels cold to the touch, delicate and smooth to the extreme, just like the skin of a young woman.There is a feeling of bliss and excitement when sitting on it!
His eyes swept forward. In this hall, it was the first time he looked at the officials below from this perspective!
Seeing him sitting still, all the ministers bent down and half-kneeled together.It seems that he is respectful and respectful, and he has performed the deportment of a courtier.As for their true thoughts, only God knows!
"You don't need to be too polite, take your seats!" After a while of silence, he said.
After thanking the ministers, they got up and took their seats.
----------------------------- On a main channel hundreds of light-years away from the Tianhua Starfield, a 30-meter Wan's fleet was hurrying on its way.
"What did you say? The imperial capital has fallen?"
In the main control room of the flagship, the new Patriarch Song Yuanzhen jumped up and asked in disbelief.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness! The fleet of the Xinghui Empire has already entered the imperial palace, and both the queen mother and the little emperor are dead!" In the light screen, a man in gray with a sharp face reported respectfully.
"Damn it, you still let that Yun Haoyu succeed!" Song Yuanzhen threw the wine glass in his hand far away, and cursed angrily:
"Zhu Zhaoyuan, that stupid woman, couldn't even hold on for two days! She deserves it!"
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Beside him, a middle-aged man wearing the rank of general asked nervously.
"What should I do? This..." Song Yuanzhen pondered, unable to make up his mind for a moment.
Of course he understands the current situation. The family and the empire are in the same boat. No matter who is finished, the other party will not be happy!That's why he responded to Zhu Zhaoyuan's request and sent troops to rescue the imperial capital.
However, the family's intelligence network has just received news from the imperial capital: As the guard commander of the imperial capital, Anduer, defected to the enemy, the fleet of the Xinghui Empire entered the imperial palace without any effort!And Zhu Zhaoyuan was executed, which made the family's King Qin action completely meaningless!
Now it can be said that the general situation is set, that Yun Haoyu will soon control the entire Shuofeng Empire!What should the family do now?
Reconcile?Bow your head to that emperor in exchange for your family's prosperity and wealth!Doesn't seem feasible!After all, the family has always been against him, even if he changes his position now, it may not be accepted by the other party!
Of course, it's hard to say, the power of the aristocratic family is deeply rooted, even the former royal family can't do anything to them, let alone this brat?For the stability of his throne, he should be lenient with us!
"What's the current situation in the imperial capital?" After thinking for a while, he asked the man in gray in the light screen.
The man in gray said: "The emperor summoned a group of ministers to discuss matters in the main hall of the imperial palace, and took down all the officials who belonged to the Zhu family faction and the six major family factions on the spot! The courtiers in the entire hall, ten to six or seven! It looks like he doesn't intend to compromise with us at all!"
"Isn't it? What does he want to do?" Song Yuanzhen suspected that his ears had misheard, "Could it be true that more than half of the courtiers are going to be wiped out! Is he crazy?"
The general said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, it seems that the emperor does not intend to reconcile with us! The matter has come to this, why don't we..."
"Song Yanbin, what do you think?" Song Yuanzhen frowned and asked.
The admiral named Song Yanbin was his confidant, and immediately said: "Your Highness, although the emperor captured the imperial capital, he only has a total of 30 warships in his hands! And we have [-] elite fleets in our hands." , if we take advantage of his unstable foothold and attack the imperial capital now! Then..."
Song Yuanzhen's eyes lit up, and then she reacted again, shaking her head and said: "The star defense system near the imperial capital is extremely complete! He has now taken over the imperial capital, and we only have this little strength. If we want to attack, it will be impossible in the short term!"
"Your Highness, our strength is indeed not enough! However, what if we unite with other families?" Song Yanbin said, "Since the emperor does not intend to reconcile with us, then the heads of the other families should have made up their minds? Anyway, now the empire Lordless, as long as we join forces, we can clean up that emperor and his fleet! Isn’t our family in charge of this empire?”
"Well! That's the truth!" Song Yuanzhen is also a decisive person, and after a moment of hesitation, he immediately made up his mind:
"Contact those families immediately, let's join forces and attack the imperial capital!"
---------------------------- In the Imperial Palace, in the Imperial Study Room.
"Your Majesty, all the officials and families who are suspected of colluding with the Zhu family and the six great families have been arrested! What should we do next? Please ask for instructions!"
Luo Hanxing presented a thick stack of lists to Yun Haoyu on the throne, and then asked.
Yun Haoyu casually flipped through a few pages, then put it aside, and said, "Just grab it, and as for how to deal with it, don't worry about it! The most important thing for us now is to defend the imperial capital! Until we The main fleet is coming!"
Regarding the change of the aristocratic families, Yun Haoyu and his subjects had already anticipated it, and started to make corresponding preparations.
Ever since the imperial capital was occupied and the news of Zhu Zhaoyuan's death spread, the Shuofeng Imperial Fleet, which was still on the front line of the battle, had completely collapsed!
Most of the fleet chose to surrender, and the fleets of the families either surrendered or were annihilated!There are still a few escaped!
Gu Longsi is rectifying the main fleet, ready to rush over to reinforce the imperial capital!Among them, the 60 vanguard fleet led by Cameron has already set off. If it travels day and night, it will probably take at least [-] days to arrive!
However, there are still many fleets left by the six great families staying in the family territory, which together constitute a fatal threat to the current imperial capital, even with the protection of the star defense system!
Therefore, the emperors and ministers of the empire must find a way to repel the siege of the family fleet during these more than ten days!It can be regarded as truly consolidating the fruits of victory!
This task is somewhat difficult, of course, for the emperors and ministers who have experienced many battles, it is far from being helpless!
Feng Lanxi once suggested that since the aristocratic camp has long been splitting,Then it would be a good idea to try to make them kill each other!For example, give that Zhou family a lot of benefits and let them try to hold back the Song family's fleet.The remaining few companies can also do the same, and win over several companies to deal with other companies!
Regarding this suggestion, Yun Haoyu has not nodded yet.
Now is a critical moment. If one owes favors to the aristocratic family at this time, the next plan to cut down the feudal clan will be difficult to handle!So until the critical moment, he didn't want to speak to the aristocratic families, even the Yun family was no exception!
"According to the time calculation, the Song family's fleet should arrive first, right?" Yun Haoyu asked.
Feng Lanxi replied: "Yes, there are still about ten hours to arrive, and the fleet size is about 30! The Zhou family's fleet will arrive later, and it will arrive in about twelve hours! As for the remaining few , it will not exceed 72 hours at the latest!"
"Since they arrived in batches and have no plans to concentrate their forces to act together, we might as well take the initiative to attack once! Eat up the Song family's fleet first!" Tian Xuanhao immediately suggested.
"This is a good idea, then let's plan it carefully!" Yun Haoyu said happily.
In the empty hall, all the officials had already taken their positions, and all the officials who were qualified to make a pilgrimage have come!Nearly 2000 people gathered together, and it didn't look crowded at all!
Despite the large number of people, there was no sound in Nuo Da's hall, so quiet that one could hear a needle drop on the ground!
