Chapter 405 Fighting wits and courage
But when Wang Yuetong heard the news, he told them not to act rashly.

The lord of the country had arranged his troops early in the morning, some of them were hiding outside the palace in the busy market, and some were hidden in the corners of the palace, as long as he gave an order, they could be summoned to him.

But if all the troops are summoned at this moment, it may attract Yuwen Changyi's attention, and it will make him more suspicious.

Moreover, his soldiers and horses had been assembled outside the city for a whole day, but they hadn't made any moves yet. This showed that Yuwen Changyi might just be tempting them and scaring them in another way.

Therefore, Wang Yuetong thought that the last thing he could do now was to summon soldiers and horses in advance, which would only expose his own strength and let Yuwen Changyi grasp their weight.

Regarding this, the king thought over and over again, and still followed Wang Yuetong's suggestion.

Sure enough, on the second day, all the people outside the city retreated without a trace.

King Jing speculated that these were just some of Yuwen Changyi's soldiers and horses. Besides, there must be other hidden troops in other places.

Just when the king was at a loss, King Jing secretly asked someone to investigate where the army Yuwen Changyi was raising in private was.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

Yuwen Changyi seemed to be exhausting them. In order to fully stimulate his ambition, the prince made another move.

Once there was news in the palace that the lord was critically ill and might die at any moment.

At this time, the crown prince took the opportunity to forge a decree of the king's abdication, and the new owner of the dragon chair was the crown prince, the only son under the king's knee.

After hearing the news, Yuwen Changyi was convinced that the king was really about to die. If he didn't make a move at this time, the dragon chair he had coveted for many years would be handed over to someone else.

Then, in the middle of the night on the fourth day, the palace was suddenly brightly lit, and several torches were immediately lit up at the gate of the palace.

Yuwen Changyi's people were just like him, wild and aggressive. They killed everyone they saw, and they killed all the way to the East Palace.

At this time, the crown prince was not in the East Palace, but was hiding in the Purple and Yang Palaces together with the King.

Yuwen Changyi's troops were divided into two groups, one group went to the East Palace to arrest the prince, and the other group followed Yuwen Changyi and went straight to the Purple and Yang Palaces.

Wang Yuetong and Jing Wang were in the secret passage under the Zi and Yang Palace bedrooms, listening to the movement outside all the time.

The group of people in the East Palace were all in vain, looking for people in all directions at a loss.

On Yuwen Changyi's side, all the people gathered in the Purple and Yang Palaces, completely blocking the inside and outside of the palace.

Yuwen Changyi walked into the king's bedroom with a few good hands, and lifted the bulging quilt on the bed with a sword.

As a result, there were only a few pillows inside.

Suddenly, Yuwen Changyi was startled.

"Quickly, tell them to find the king for me!"

"Yes."

"Wait, call me those people from the East Palace first!"

Yuwen Changyi suspected that it was the prince who secretly transferred the king.

Or, in order to successfully ascend the throne, he had secretly caused the country's lord to die early.

The group of people in the East Palace failed to find the crown prince, so they came back in despair.

"Da Sima, I have searched everywhere, but he is not in the East Palace."

"Now, go and find the lord of the country for me. If you want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you die!"

"There's no need to look for it, I'm here."

At this time, the king stood out from behind the curtain.

And the prince also came out together.

His energy and spirit were no different from those of ordinary people, and there was no sickness on his face.

"You actually..."

Yuwen Changyi immediately realized that he had been fooled by the father and son.

"Yuwen Changyi, I have been waiting for you for so long, your fox tail is finally showing!"

The lord of the country faced the thousands of troops in front of him single-handedly, but he had no fear.

"My lord, your ability to pretend is too much to show off!"

At this time, a group of people outside the palace were also on guard, and the whole palace was trapped.

Therefore, even if he knew that he had been fooled, he still knew what to do.

The soldiers and horses in his hands are enough to overturn the entire palace.

He had calculated early in the morning that the soldiers and horses in his hands, plus the soldiers and horses secretly raised outside, were far more than those in the hands of the king.

In the past few years, he has been used to living a life of dominance, even if he is cautious, he is quite conceited in his heart.

Therefore, he was sure that no matter how he calculated this battle to force the palace, he would not lose.

"However, no matter how deep your schemes are, no matter how clever your moves are, you are now my prisoner, aren't you?"

Yuwen Changyi smiled wildly and looked at the king with disdain.

What he dislikes the most is his lofty and indifferent appearance.

"Why are you standing here stupidly? Hurry up and invite the king to the dungeon!"

When the people around heard it, they all rushed forward as if they were asking for credit, trying to grab the king with their own hands.

But the lord of the country has always stood there calmly, not moving a bit.

At this moment, the ground under Yuwen Changyi's feet loosened, and then a hole the size of a person was opened. Suddenly, there was a deafening cracking sound in the whole room.

King Jing flew up from the ground, holding a long sword in his hand.

He just used such a sword to break a big hole in such a hard, hard ground.

Yuwen Changyi looked at the uninvited guest in shock, if he hadn't dodged in time, he would have been cut in half by a sword.

Fang Cai respected the king impartially, and cut a hole between his feet with a sharp sword.

"Okay... You are dying, and you still keep such a trick!"

Yuwen Changyi stabilized his figure and sneered.

"Unfortunately, no matter how good this young hero's kung fu is, his fists are no match for his four feet. There are countless soldiers and horses around the palace. I don't believe that you can still fly from here with wings. Can't get out!"

"The lord will not fly out, he will only walk out from here on your corpse."

Facing so many people, King Jing had no fear, on the contrary, he looked indifferent.

"What a big tone! Come, take him down!"

Following Yuwen Changyi's order, all the people behind him rushed in front of King Jing, trying to win by taking advantage of the number of people.

"My lord, prince, please retreat behind the curtain."

King Jing gave instructions to the people behind him, and then he concentrated on dealing with the minions in front of him.

Seeing his subordinates being beaten to pieces by King Jing, but King Jing didn't even catch his breath, as if dealing with these people was effortless, Yuwen Changyi's face became more and more ugly.

"You bunch of idiots!"

He cursed angrily, and kicked the person who was knocked unconscious before him into the hole in the ground.

"what……"

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from below.
