In the side hall.

Li Shimin looked around at the obedient ministers in the hall and nodded secretly in his heart.

Just now he stood up to lead Ma Shun and took responsibility, which allowed him to win over some of the ministers' hearts.

However, the Queen Mother Sun who was sitting next to him was still an obstacle to his power.

The hearts of the people in the court were floating, and not all of them were the main combatants like Yu Qian.

Some were once members of the eunuch faction, and some were just outsiders.

There are many factions with different ideas, which is extremely detrimental to the defense of the capital.

Of course, these are all things for later.

The first thing that needs to be solved now is the hidden dangers of the eunuch guards who are attached to Wang Zhen in the palace and the royal guards in the capital.

Li Shimin stood up again, raised his hands to Empress Dowager Sun and said

"The Queen Mother and her ministers requested that troops be mobilized immediately.

Put all the eunuchs in the Bureau of Ceremony into prison, and control all the guards and commanders who used to show favor to Wang Zhen."

After hearing this, Queen Mother Sun was a little hesitant, whether she wanted to go to war in such a big way.

"is this necessary?

Just send people to arrest the leading eunuchs of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, that will be enough."

Li Shimin will not be as indecisive as the other party.

He will never be soft-hearted when it comes to killing people.

"The Queen Mother, had just given the order to the Ministry of Punishment to suppress the three tribes of Yi Wang Zhen.

Now that Ma Shun is dead again, maybe some people will jump over the wall in a hurry.

Be fully prepared"

"this."

Empress Dowager Sun turned her head and looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Minister of the Ministry of War. Her eyes seemed to be seeking advice.

"According to the Queen Mother, King Tan’s words are reasonable.

Wang Zhen has always been unscrupulous in the ceremonial department and excludes dissidents.

It’s impossible to say that they would take risks after hearing the rumors."

"Queen Mother, when people's hearts are floating.

The palace can no longer be in chaos!"

Even if Wang Zhi and Yu Qian don't think so, everyone will jump out and take risks.

But the risk of palace change must be guarded against.

"The minister seconded the motion"

"The minister seconded the motion"

"Then, King Tan will give the order."

When Empress Dowager Sun saw that all the ministers agreed, she had no objection.

……

In the palace, inside the ceremonial prison.

Word spread quickly.

Starting from the liquidation of Wang Zhen to the news of Ma Shun's death.

Many eunuchs were confused and said to the people around them:

"The ancestor died and Ma Shun was also killed.

The next thing I have to wait for is that I will die sooner or later.

It's better to fight them!"

Si Li, Eunuch Bingbi, and others immediately called on their eunuchs to start a fight.

They felt that they could not sit still and wait for death.

Someone asked timidly

"Even if we win, what's the use!"

Eunuch Bingbi said angrily,"Live first.

Besides, the Wala army might arrive in a few days.

The capital has fallen, who can care about us!"

Obviously, in their minds, the capital cannot be defended.

Whenever the Oara army from the north arrives, the capital will be captured.

"OK, let's go!"

After making up their mind, the eunuchs gathered their men.

They contacted the middle and upper-level guards who were close to Wang Zhen and prepared to start a rebellion together.

However, before they could send out troops, Li Shimin arrived with his men.

"Those who resist will be killed without mercy!"

Li Shimin, who was wearing Mingguang armor, had the sword in his hand stained with blood.

He killed the eunuch Bingbi who was the leader!

The blood flowed on the ground, which immediately made many eunuchs' legs weak.

"kill!"

Prince Tan's personal bodyguards, plus dozens of imperial guards, actually frightened hundreds of people to the point where they dared not move.

Soon, Li Shimin repeated this throughout the palace.

The eunuch who led the resistance was killed on the spot, and all the middle and upper-level imperial guards were killed. Control!

What they didn't expect was that King Tan would come over in armor.

It was an impromptu attack, and many people wanted to wait and see.

Li Shimin controlled thousands of guards with only one or two hundred people!

"My lord, what are we going to do with these people?"

Eunuch Xing'an went into battle even when there were not enough manpower.

His martial arts skills were not bad at all, and he even killed several eunuchs.

"Kill them all!"

Li Shimin said lightly.

The middle and upper-level guards are alive. They are either loyal to the Empress Dowager or in collusion with Wang Zhen.

How can we completely control the guards without killing them all?

Thousands of guards have never been on the battlefield, but they His physical fitness and armor are both top-notch.

He will be able to play a huge role next!

"yes!"

Eunuch Xing'an was stunned for a moment, and then faithfully carried out the order.

Many middle- and upper-level guards still had illusions and wanted to survive.

However, they did not expect that only death would greet them.

"ah!"

Screams came one after another, and dozens of people were beheaded on the spot.

The heads fell to the ground with a bang, plus the eunuchs who were beheaded on the spot. The huge palace was full of blood and traces of battle!

An hour later,

Li Shimin personally imprisoned him from the bottom. Wei Zhong, selected dozens of people to fill the gaps in the middle level.

Almost the next moment, these people declared their allegiance to him.

The first step in taking power, completed.
