All the way into the Imperial city with soldiers unimpeded, Qi Yue’s inner suspicions are getting heavier and heavier, and he has gradually raised his guard.

Now, the sun is shining in the Imperial city. All the officials have taken their places, and the Grand Prince has already offered sacrifices to the heavens. He was just about to be helped by the attendants to ascend the hundreds of steps to the throne.

All the officials in the city were looking in the direction of the dragon chair in anticipation of the new Emperor’s accession to the throne when they suddenly heard another attendant announce, “General Qi Yue has arrived!”

At once, a burst of neat and uniform footsteps sounded, and the black-armored army, which was still cold under the sunlight, was presented in front of everyone’s eyes.

All the ministers drew a breath of cold air and could not help but discuss.

Seeing Qi Yue and the densely packed Northern army, Wei Lin felt that the sky was spinning and he was about to faint. The new Emperor is about to be crowned. How can this Qi Yue so coincidentally come at this time and even bring the army in?

Is the Imperial army made of paper? How come they let these tens of thousands of troops walk in so easily?

He reached out, pulled one of the attendants by his side, and asked, “Does……no, does His Majesty know about this?”

“There is no need to worry. The Emperor has made all the preparations.”

All the preparations? What can be prepared?

Wei Lin’s heart was cold. In the whole of Great Yan, what kind of foolproof preparation can stand up to Qi Yue’s army? The Grand Prince is a smart man, but is he confused at this time?

The officials kneeling under the Imperial city looked at Qi Yue with pale faces.

The troops behind him marched forward, and the sound of neat footsteps shocks people’s ears.

“Qi, General Qi should not move forward! Your place is there……,” an attendant trembled as he reached for Qi Yue, only for his extended hand to be brushed away.

The officials had even more drums in their hearts when they saw Qi Yue’s attitude. It was difficult to see today’s outcome.

Qi Yue’s face is serious, and his black eyes, which are the same color as his armor, are cold. He did not care about the officials in front of the Xuanzheng Hall but tilted his head to search for the young man’s figure.

Now that the Grand Prince is ascending to the throne, Xiangfeng, who has been his assistant, should be present. Why are all the officials kneeling on the ground, but Xiangfeng is nowhere to be seen? Could it be that he is still late? Qi Yue’s heart was gloomy. He tilted his head to meet the blinding sunlight and glared at the figure standing in front of the Xuanzheng Hall, about to ascend a hundred steps.

However, the moment he saw the figure, Qi Yue stumbled and almost fell to the ground. The power that had been built up step by step in his body suddenly dissipated!

The figure is thin and frail, yet it stands firm, like a green bamboo pine. The figure also carries a dignified feeling and matches with the gold embroidered imperial clothing.
