    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1065

    ? Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing caressed the dragon chair made of precious wood fondly, stood up for a while, and sat down again for a while, his face was full of excitement.

    A few years ago, he was just an inconspicuous official in the court, a small person who no one else bothered to look at.

    The only thing he can do is that he was appreciated by Wang Huchen, then prime minister of the left, and was promoted to work under Wang Huchen's command.

    But others have always regarded him as the little follower of Prime Minister Zuo Wang Huchen, and they didn't take him seriously at all.

    In just a few years, he has gradually climbed to the position of powerful minister in the Far Eastern court, and has become a figure that everyone looks up to.

    Of course, all kinds of adventures and intrigues are inseparable from this, and Yan Jing won again and again. He came to the end and became the powerful left prime minister of the Far East Dynasty.

    In the past, those princes and ministers whom he needed to look up to were now trembling under his Yan Jing's feet.

    Thinking that he controls the fate of everyone in the Far East court, and everyone has to act according to his own face, Yan Jing feels as if he has the whole world in his hands.

    Yan Jing sat back on the dragon chair, looked down at the empty palace, and couldn't help laughing up to the sky. He found that this is the charm of power, and a single sentence can determine a person's life or death.

    In just half a month, Yan Jing, in the name of the deceased Emperor Long Jun, poisoned Liu Zhao, the right prime minister, beheaded the prince Taibao Li Yi, and strangled Shangshu Sun Dong to death.

    Yan Jing almost bloodbathed the civil servants and generals of the whole dynasty, and all those who were against him and who were not pleasing to the eye were all washed away.

    In the past, those important ministers in the Far Eastern court were dragged out and beheaded one by one, and died without dignity.

    Although many aristocratic families in the capital city tried to resist, their resistance was so weak in the face of Yan Jing who was in charge of the army.

    Thinking of those former opponents dying in front of him with unwilling faces, Yan Jing felt very happy.

    The sound of clanging footsteps sounded in the empty hall, and a burly general strode towards Yan Jing.

    Seeing this burly general, Yan Jing also stopped laughing, so as not to look so frivolous.

    "Meet Mr. Zuoxiang!"

    This general wearing the heavy armor of the Imperial Guard is Liang Bin, Deputy Marshal of the Imperial Guard, and he is Yan Jing's strong supporter in the army.

    Liang Bin was also a young general who was single-handedly promoted by the Emperor Long Jun. He climbed to the position of deputy commander of the Imperial Guard step by step by relying on his military exploits.

    When Hu Ziyang, Marshal of the Imperial Guard was transferred to the Hexi front line, Liang Bin, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, was fully in charge of fighting against the rebels in the provinces of Hezhong, Pingyang, and Daning.

    ?Compared to Hu Ziyang, Marshal of the Imperial Guard who was loyal to the emperor, Liang Bin, as the deputy commander, had been suppressed all the time, and it was always difficult for him to be alone.

    Until Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing spoke in the court, Liang Bin was able to defeat the generals and take charge of the battle against the rebels.

    Liang Bin also reciprocated, forming an alliance with Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing secretly, supporting each other.

    This time, Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing transferred the Imperial Guard troops loyal to Emperor Longjun to the western provinces to quell the chaos.

    And in order to fill the gap in the defense of the royal capital, he suggested mobilizing troops from the front line in the river to fill it.

    Almost all of the imperial guards who were transferred back from the river to the capital belonged to Deputy Commander Liang Bin.

    This is also the reason why Yan Jing was able to quickly defeat the princes and ministers and control the situation after the death of the emperor Longjun.

    After the death of Emperor Longjun, although Yan Jing controlled the situation in the capital by relying on the imperial guards transferred back from Hezhong, there were not many troops after all.

    So he secretly instructed Liang Bin, the deputy commander, to lead the army back to the capital in secret, so as to grasp the overall situation.

    Yan Jing felt that as long as they took control of the situation in the capital and cleared out those princes and ministers who opposed them, then they could support the crown prince who was only a few years old, and they would become the real masters of this land.

    "Master Zuo Xiang, the 3,213 members of the royal family who are stranded in the capital have all been beheaded."

    Liang Bin, Deputy Marshal of the Imperial Guard, who was hemodialyzed and heavily armored, stood still and reported to Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jinglang.

    "good very good."

    Yan Jing was also very happy when he heard that the members of the royal family in the capital were almost wiped out.

    The reason why he wants to attack the royal family is because he is worried that these people will object at that time.The new emperor supported by ??.

    Moreover, these people are extremely easy to be used by others. If once they run out, any force can use their royal status and elect them to be emperors, then the authority of the new emperor in his hands will not be so great  .

    Therefore, Yan Jing simply did not do anything, and ordered that all the members of the royal family except the remaining crown prince should be slaughtered to reduce the threat.

    "Those members of the royal family who live outside the capital should also be purged secretly." Yan Jing urged.

    "Don't worry, Mr. Zuo Xiang, I have sent people there, and they will all die within a month." Liang Bin said confidently.

    Yan Jing said with satisfaction: "I don't worry if you do things."

    "Where did Hu Ziyang go?"

    Now Yan Jing has eliminated almost all the opponents he can eradicate, and now looking at the Far East court, only the Grand Marshal of the Imperial Guard Hu Ziyang still poses a great threat to him.

    After all, Hu Ziyang is the Marshal of the Imperial Guard Army, almost all of the current Imperial Guard Army was reorganized by him, and the prestige in the army is extremely high.

    Once Hu Ziyang, Marshal of the Imperial Guard, raises his arms, his plan will come to naught, so he is very concerned about Hu Ziyang's life and death.

    "Lord Prime Minister Zuo, Hu Ziyang has already settled down at the inn outside the city, and will come to the city to have an audience early tomorrow morning." Liang Bin replied.

    Yan Jing also showed joy when he heard that Hu Ziyang had arrived outside the capital city. It seems that Hu Ziyang finally took the bait.

    "In order to avoid long nights and dreams, you should lead someone to do it tonight." Yan Jing ordered.

    Liang Bin said with a smile: "At that time, I will take someone there personally, and he won't be able to run away."

    "It's just that I still have one important thing to do now, and I need the cooperation of the left minister." Liang Bin stared at Yan Jing who was sitting on the dragon chair.

    "What kind of cooperation does Liang Shuai need from the truth?" Yan Jing asked.

    Liang Bin showed cold white teeth and said, "I need to borrow the head of the left minister."

    After hearing Liang Bin's words, Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing was also taken aback for a moment, and then his face darkened.

    "Shuai Liang, what do you mean?"

    Yan Jing also stood up vigilantly, staring down at Liang Bin and questioning him.

    "It's not interesting. I also want to sit on this dragon chair. You are blocking my way." Liang Bin sneered.

    Yan Jing also gasped when he saw Liang Bin with murderous intent on his face. He didn't expect that Liang Bin, who had always been kind to him, would have such ambitions.

    "Come here!"

    ? Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing was also furious, and shouted loudly towards the outside of the hall.

    "Don't shout, your people are already dead."

    Liang Bin gave a cold shout to the outside, the door of the main hall opened suddenly, and groups of guard soldiers in heavy armor rushed in quickly, surrounding Yan Jing who was standing in front of the dragon chair.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
