At this moment, a storm was brewing in the entire capital.
All the nobles began to link up to protect themselves. Not only did the servants put on their armor, but they also began to gather.
Many scum city guards also began to gather.
The entire Royal City was incomparably silent!
But a terrible civil war was about to break out!
These temporary armies of servants were not afraid, and neither were these scum city guards. Even if there were a hundred or two hundred thousand of them, they would not be a match for the sixty thousand Imperial Guards.
The terrible thing was that the Fengdu Temple Legion was taking advantage of the situation and hiding in these temporary armies.
The entire Raging Wave Kingdom's Temple Legion had nearly thirty thousand soldiers, and more than half of them were in Fengdu.
As for the Divine Dragon Temple Army, it was the most elite army in the world, second to none.
If they were allowed to hide and take advantage of the situation, no one knew what would happen once the war started.
Even if Sauron and the entire royal family would be slaughtered, it was still unknown. One must know that the Dragon God Temple contained the world's strongest martial arts experts.
Not only were the aristocratic families in turmoil, but the commoners were also filled with unease.
At this time, all the brothels should be sleeping.
But since last night, the entire royal family's brothels did not sleep at all, and almost did not open for business.
This was because everyone heard a terrible news. The gold coin reserves of the capital's gold had disappeared.
This news really scared the brothels out of their wits.
Immediately, someone contacted them and went to withdraw the gold coins the next morning.
Then, the Yin Yuan Association took the opportunity to fan the flames, trying to cause chaos among the commoners while the nobles were in chaos.
The next morning, they immediately created a bank run to make things worse for Søren.
At this time, the Fengdu Arts Committee came out to calm the brothels' unease, and told everyone not to listen to the rumors. And President Yi Manman announced that she would go to the Regent Duke Søren the next day.
This Fengdu Arts Committee was established by Søren.
At that time, because the prodigal Søren had been framed by Zhi Ning, he owed Royal City Gold 3900 gold coins. At that time, the Suo Family couldn't pay back the money even if they turned everything upside down.
To earn this amount of money in a short period of time, Søren had his eyes on the brothel.
He began to package the women in the brothel and launched the plan of the Nineteen Beauties of King City, increasing the value of these women by dozens or even hundreds of times, and he also made his first large sum of gold coins.
Søren left after earning a sum of money. He established the Arts Committee and elected his confidante, Yi Manman, as the chairman.
This committee was not only responsible for the packaging of women, but also for other matters. Gradually, it became an organization similar to the brothel union in the entire Royal City.
In the entire Royal City, he had a lot of say.
In the past, Duke Yanting was the ancestor of the brothel world in Royal City.
But after the King had a stroke, even his power was taken away. The entire Fengdu brothel gradually fell into the hands of the Yin Yuan Association, and even Yi Manman lost her position as the chairman of the Arts Committee.
But after Zhi Li was defeated and Søren took over Royal City.
Yi Manman also became the chairman of the Arts Committee immediately. But the entire brothel world in Royal City, at least economically, was still controlled by the Yin Yuan Association.
After being instigated by the Yin Yuan Association, everyone in Royal City wanted to go to the Royal City Gold Bank to withdraw their savings.
And within a few days, this news would spread to other provinces, and the Royal City Gold Bank's branches in these provinces would immediately run on them.
Because the brothel was a mixed bag of good and bad people, and the women in the brothel had the most savings in Royal City Gold Bank, the Yin Yuan Association planned to burn the brothel women first.
However, even if the bosses of the entire brothel in Royal City were controlled by the Yin Yuan Association, the women in the brothel might not be the same.
In their hearts, Søren was one of them.
More than three years ago, Søren was the ancestor of the brothel. At that time, he wished he could live in a brothel every day. Even if he had no money, he could eat and sleep with a lot of beauties for free.
Most of the women in the brothel felt inferior. At this time, Søren rose against the heavens, defeated Zhi Li, married the princess, and was about to become the Prince Regent of the kingdom.
This made them feel honored, and they felt that this was the pride of the brothel world.
Therefore, when Yi Manman's Arts Committee came forward to suppress the unrest in the brothel world. They promised that they would not go to the Royal City Gold Bank to withdraw their money tomorrow morning. Instead, they would ask Yi Manman to ask Søren on their behalf if the gold coin reserves had really disappeared.
Of course, this was only temporary.
If their money really disappeared, it would be useless even if Søren was one of them, because this money was their insurance for the rest of their lives.
…
Nine o 'clock in the morning!
Søren's order of confiscation had not been issued, but the nobles in the entire Royal City were extremely anxious.
The Yinyuan Society began to instigate secretly. They could not sit still and wait for death, they had to take the initiative to attack!
The so-called initiative to attack was to let the servants form a temporary army to take the initiative to attack the Royal Guards.
However, this was obviously impossible.
Even if these nobles were given a hundred guts, no one would dare to take the initiative to attack the Royal Guards.
They did not dare to, but there were people who wanted to see the world in chaos.
That was the generals of the Royal City Guards!
This army had long been rotten, and the Yinyuan Society had infiltrated it full of holes.
Previously, when Zhi Li assassinated the king, it was this group of Royal City Guards who covered Li Chenglian and the other assassins' escape.
It could be said that the entire command level of the Royal City Guards was completely rotten.
After Søren took over the Royal City, he immediately started to purge the Royal City Guards. He put the Commander and Deputy Commander of the Royal City Guards under house arrest, and eight commanders!
He also immediately selected eight deputy commanders from the Royal Guards to serve as the temporary commanders of the Royal City Guards!
However, this was far from enough. The entire Royal City Guards had been completely corrupted, and any one of the centurions was not clean.
However, after Søren took over the Royal City, the time was too short, and there were too many more pressing matters.
Moreover, a major change in the Royal City Guards was not something that could be done overnight. Søren did not have a large number of low-level officers on hand, and he could not provoke the Royal City Guards too much, in case it really caused a mutiny.
Therefore, before Yan Chao 'er led the Rock Bandits into the Royal City, Søren would use the method of boiling the frog in warm water to avoid alerting the enemy.
However, these Royal City Guards knew that their doomsday was here.
Originally, they were powerless to resist. But now, Royal City was about to be in complete chaos, and a civil war was about to break out.
These Royal City Guards felt that their chance to live was here, and they decided that they could not sit still and wait for death. They had to seize this rare opportunity to unite all the nobles in Royal City, as well as the Fengdu Holy Cathedral, to kill the royal family and Søren once and for all.
Only by overthrowing Søren and Jung Yeon could these corrupt Royal City Guards have a chance to turn the tables and live.
"He dares to bring down the Emperor!" A dismissed Captain of the Royal City Guards said angrily: "Who does Søren think he is? He's just a broken man who burrows in his pants every day, and he dares to be a regent? Isn't he afraid that the world will laugh their heads off? "
"That's right." A deputy commander beside him said: "This debauchee snatched a woman from me at the Ascension Pavilion, and I beat him half to death in the end. Other than having a big dick, there's nothing good about him."
"If he hadn't had a big dick and f * cked Princess Jung Yeon, how could he have become a regent?"
"My dick is bigger, and I can f * ck Princess Jung Yeon even more happily. She should have asked me to be the regent, hahaha …"
Even if this group of corrupt Royal City Guards held a meeting to rebel and be beheaded, the topic would definitely go astray after a few sentences.
"Cough …" Suddenly, someone coughed.
Instantly, the entire place fell silent!
The one who coughed was a mighty and domineering middle-aged man. His name was Yuwen Gai, the former Commander of the Royal City Guards!
He looked like he was only middle-aged, but he was actually over 60 years old. He had been the Commander of the Royal City Guards for more than 13 years.
This Yuwen Gai was born a commoner, and his martial arts were superb.
More than 20 years ago, when Yuwen Gai was in his thirties, he was already a Dragon Warrior. However, he was only a mere centurion, which showed how badly he was suppressed.
After Søren's father, Count Sauron, became the Commander of the Royal Guards, he immediately cleaned up and reorganized the entire Royal Guards, eliminating most of the incompetent generals and letting the capable ones stand out.
It was at that time that Yuwen Gai, who had been buried for nearly a decade, was discovered.
After a conversation with him, Count Sauron thought highly of him and directly promoted him to a chiliarch.
Soon, the Rouran War broke out. Count Sauron led the Royal Guards to support the Rouran Castellan, Asmo, and defended against the Yelan Principality's army.
In the Rouran War, Yuwen Gai indeed stood out and achieved outstanding military service. On the battlefield, he was promoted from a chiliarch to a 10,000-man commander.
After the war, Count Sauron petitioned the King to promote Yuwen Gai to the Commander of the Royal Guards' Infantry!
To Yuwen Gai, this was a meteoric rise!
Count Sauron's high regard for him was unparalleled. After all, he was born a commoner and was not in the same class as Count Sauron.
Moreover, the King's change of heart also promoted the elites of the commoners. From the looks of it, Count Sauron even had the intention to groom Yuwen Gai as his successor in the Royal Guards, even though he was only a few years older than Yuwen Gai.
After the Rouran War, Turin Tuo was promoted to Duke. Count Sauron handed over all his military power and returned to Tianshui City.
Yuwen Gai's rise was too fast. Moreover, he was born a commoner, so he was greatly ostracized in the Royal Guards. Without Count Sauron's protection, he could not stay in the Royal Guards any longer.
Moreover, he was seriously injured in the Rouran War and needed two to three years to recuperate.
Therefore, Count Sauron petitioned the King to temporarily transfer Yuwen Gai out of the Royal Guards and promote him to the Commander of the City Guards. This was considered as gilding and nurturing.
At this moment, Yuwen Gai was only one step away from entering the Supreme Command!
If this continued, Yuwen Gai would replace Count Sauron as the Commander of the Royal Guards and become the first commoner elite to enter the Supreme Command.
However …
Following that, Count Sauron suddenly became paralyzed in bed and the King's change of heart caused a drastic change in the Raging Wave Kingdom.
After losing Count Sauron, the pillar of the military, and Duke Turin Tuo's betrayal, Yuwen Gai, as the Commander of the City Guards, became the King's greatest reliance in the military!
However, under great pressure and temptation, Yuwen Gai still chose to betray the King.
He betrayed Count Sauron, whom he owed a great debt of gratitude to. At first, he chose to remain neutral. Five years ago, he completely threw himself into Zhi Li's camp.
At that time, the King became extremely disheartened. Yuwen Gai was a commoner elite that he had vigorously promoted, but in the end, he betrayed him without any scruples.
Yuwen Gai's betrayal meant that other than the Royal Guards, the King's change of heart in the military was completely destroyed. It also meant that the King was completely controlled by the nobles.
And the source of all this was Count Sauron's paralysis.
If he was still alive and in charge of the Royal Guards, with his illustrious reputation, Duke Turin Tuo would not dare to betray him.
Count Sauron and Duke Turin Tuo, the two military leaders, did not change their stance. No one in the military dared to defect to Zhi Li, no matter how unhappy they were with the King's change. This was because the King's change of heart had cut off most of their sources of income.
With the relationship between Yuwen Gai and Count Sauron, it was not too much for him to kneel in front of Søren and call him Young Master.
When Søren entered Royal City, because he had no one to rely on, he wanted to give Yuwen Gai a chance and wait for him to pay his respects.
After all, he could even put Chu Ye and Jian Yong in an important position, not to mention Yuwen Gai, who was once so close to his father.
However, he was disappointed.
Even though Zhi Li was defeated, Yuwen Gai did not come to pay his respects.
Therefore, Søren decreed that Yuwen Gai was stripped of his position as the Commander of the Royal Guards. He was ordered to stay at home and reflect on his mistakes.
"Whether Søren is a big bird or a small bird, whether he is poor or not, it has nothing to do with us." Yuwen Gai said indifferently, "But now that his butcher's knife is on our necks, we cannot sit still and wait for death. Royal City is about to face chaos, this is our only chance to save ourselves! "
"Yes, yes, yes!" Everyone shouted in unison.
Yuwen Gai said, "Between us and Søren, only one side can survive. Only by killing Søren can we survive! How many of our brothers in the city guard will rise up with us? "
"Fifty thousand, at least fifty thousand." The general below roared, "We've already captured those bastards sent by Søren."
"Fifty thousand is enough!" Yuwen Gai nodded, "When the time comes, there will be an army of more than fifteen thousand mixed in with our city guard. This army is very powerful, and everyone is well aware of their origins, but no one is allowed to speak of it."
"Yes!" Everyone was extremely excited when they heard this.
Who were these fifteen thousand soldiers?
Of course it was the strongest army in the world, the Dragon God Temple Legion!
"Kill Søren and avenge His Highness Zhi Li!"
"Kill Søren and avenge His Highness Zhi Li!"
"Start a rebellion and kill Sauron!" Someone was too excited and shouted this slogan.
Yuwen Gai's expression turned cold, "Remember this, we are not rebelling, we are purging the emperor's traitors and killing the treacherous official Søren! Søren has caused chaos in the palace, causing the wrath of the people, so we had no choice but to rebel! "
"Yes, purge the emperor's traitors and kill the treacherous officials!"
… …
Søren returned to Royal City as fast as he could!
Then, according to Søren's confession, he obtained his corruption ledger.
He destroyed all the decrees of confiscation and drafted a new one, arresting people one by one according to Søren's corruption ledger.
At this time, Zhuang Zhixuan suddenly came in, "Master, Miss Yi Manman from Royal City's Arts Committee has brought a dozen brothel girls to ask about the gold coins in Royal City, should we throw them out?"
… …
At the same time!
Hidden Island's young master Fang Qingyi received the worst news!
"Young Master, Sauron has discovered the gold coin reserves that we've hidden!"
Instantly, Fang Qingyi felt like the world was collapsing and the world was spinning!
His stomach churned and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
