What truly surprised Gu Yi was that Gu Chen was indeed becoming stronger and stronger.
From the mont he hoisted the grand banner.
The change in him had completely surpassed anything from before.
It’s just a pity that Gu Chen’s attributes still remained a mystery.
He couldn’t ascertain this fact through attributes, only through Gu Chen’s actions.
Bloodstained, Gu Chen was fearless. He quickly ordered guards to hold the crucial points of the Imperial Palace, and he himself led so mbers of the Gu Clan straight to Changle Palace!
When Empress Dowager He saw the blood-soaked Gu Chen, she was so terrified she collapsed to the ground.
"Issue the decree imdiately."
Gu Chen showed her no respect whatsoever.
Pointing his spear directly at her, his voice was extrely cold: "Declare He Jin’s and your cris, and my grandfather’s posthumous title, and let command the troops of Luoyang."
He needed an official title to firmly control the guards.
Otherwise, even if they stord the Imperial Palace, it would be useless.
"You... you... you..."
The overwhelming aura of death made Empress Dowager He’s body tremble uncontrollably.
Seeing her not moving.
Gu Chen thrust his spear tip closer to her yet again.
"If you don’t issue the decree, then die."
He remained as rciless as ever.
This ti, Empress Dowager He truly panicked.
She didn’t dare hesitate, continuously nodding, "I will issue the decree, I will issue the decree...."
She frantically tried to get up to write, but couldn’t stand.
Seeing this, Gu Chen directly wrote a decree himself, tossed it to her, and made her stamp it with her Imperial Seal.
Then he imdiately sent the decree out.
—— A shocking upheaval!
The sudden occurrence of all this caught everyone off guard.
No one expected that He Jin, who had seemingly stabilized the situation, would die so quickly!
But when the court officials realized everything, it was already too late to regret.
Gu Chen would not stumble twice in the sa place.
This ti he directly locked all the court officials in his residence, forbidding anyone to leave.
Violators would be executed!
He didn’t have Gu Xi’s prestige.
Thus, he could only suppress the whole of Luoyang with such violent ans!
And when the common people heard of the cris of He Jin and Empress Dowager He, a great upheaval erupted across Luoyang.
The people hurled curses, venting the anger in their hearts.
What should have been a coup by common reasoning, actually garnered the support of the people.
In this situation.
He indeed managed to control Luoyang with thunderous ans.
And after the major event was settled, he showed no rcy to this Empress Dowager He either.
He had soone assist her in "hanging herself" to death.
Leaving a last statent, claiming to have let down the Great Han’s past emperors and failed the world, atoning with her death.
This thod was not considered sophisticated.
But Gu Chen’s thoughts were very clear.
He just needed a pretext that people could believe.
Seeing all this, Gu Yi was also deeply shaken.
Indeed...
The Gu Clan’s flexible moral bottom line ultimately led the mbers of the Gu Clan to take this step.
However, he didn’t particularly care.
What truly concerned him was the change in Gu Chen.
He was indeed different, this performance had already far exceeded ordinary people....
.....
North Palace.
Gu Chen slowly stepped out from within.
"Ziyan, how is His Majesty?" The brothers guarding outside imdiately stepped forward to ask.
The change in Gu Chen was truly remarkable.
It surprised these brothers so much that instinctively they regarded him as their backbone.
"I have cald His Majesty."
Gu Chen’s gaze was profound, calmly stating: "But if we can indeed stabilize the situation, for our Gu Clan, the emperor must be replaced in the future."
Upon hearing this, the brothers all fell into contemplation.
"Gentlen brothers." Gu Chen looked at everyone and spoke again: "The current asure won’t last long."
"The lockdown of Luoyang will certainly attract attention."
"It’s essential to send word to our elder brothers, having them lead troops here as soon as possible."
Everyone nodded in agreent.
Right after the two, the central army following Gu Xi returned to Luoyang one after another.
They didn’t bring back Gu Xi’s corpse.
Instead, they sent it to Hebei.
Though Gu Chen was imnsely saddened by this, he understood the difficulties of the mont and revealed nothing, instead maintaining stability among the people.
On the other side.
Dong Zhuo was advancing triumphantly with his army towards Luoyang.
"Lord Ming, the current situation in Luoyang must be chaotic."
"With the Grand Tutor’s skills..."
"The high officials in the court won’t find it easy to stabilize Luoyang. As long as the Lord shows intentions to assist them, he will surely be able to lead his army into Luoyang."
"By then, the Lord will have everything he desires."
Li Ru spoke with a smile all over his face.
Upon hearing this, Dong Zhuo laughed heartily, extrely pleased.
Thus they headed straight for Luoyang.
Upon reaching Luoyang.... they never expected to be greeted by a rain of arrows.
Among them was Gu Chen’s insult.
"Dong Zhuo!"
"You conspire with traitors, attempting to disrupt the nation!"
"Now, how dare you still call yourself a minister of Han?"
Looking at the young face on the city gate.
In an instant, whether it was Dong Zhuo or Li Ru, their expressions involuntarily changed. ...
....
