Li Chen paused, glanced at Xu Wei, and said, "What words have reached your ears?"

Li Chen originally thought that someone was causing trouble in the dark, but the fact was not what Li Chen thought.

Xu Wei smiled bitterly and said: "I dare not hide His Highness from my humble position. The main reason is that the military control in the capital happened suddenly without any warning, and no one knew that His Highness had returned to the capital. Although everyone in the capital is now trapped at home and not allowed to go out, the people's hearts are still But it is extremely chaotic, and people are in panic, and people in humble positions are afraid of chaos."

Li Chen frowned and thought for a moment.

Although direct military control is the most effective coercive measure, he immediately imposed military control as soon as he arrived in the capital and before the news was released. Although it did prevent the situation from deteriorating, it is definitely not a good thing if it continues.

In the final analysis, martial law is to prevent the seizure of power, but it is definitely not the best solution to cure all worries.

At this moment, Li Chen raised his head, looked at the Qianqing Palace that was already visible not far away, and said, "I'll talk about it after I meet the saint."

Face to face saint?

Hasn’t the emperor been unconscious all this time?

Xu Wei's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Li Chen's expression becoming more serious than ever before, a frightening thought suddenly arose in his mind.

But as soon as this idea appeared, he was immediately strangled to death.

Xu Wei lowered his head, not daring to have any other thoughts, and said, "I understand."

Li Chen quickly walked to the gate of Qianqing Palace. The tight security here naturally did not stop him in the slightest. However, when he walked to the gate, the resolute Li Chen stopped on his own.

At this moment, across a palace door, Li Chen actually had a timid step towards home.

He had always regarded Emperor Daxing as a cheap daddy. From the beginning when he was acting for a living, to later he was shocked by Emperor Daxing's methods, and now, Li Chen didn't know how to face this man who was helpless at this moment. The emperor who knows whether he is alive or dead.

But he had a strong premonition that this should be the last time he saw Emperor Daxing.

Next to him, Su Jinpa, who had always been with him but never spoke, said: "No news is the best news. The Holy One should still be alive. Prince, please go in quickly."

Li Chen murmured: "He is unconscious, and if I go in, is there any point?"

Su Jinpa looked at Li Chen and said: "Whether it makes sense or not, you should go in. The arrangements made by the Holy One over the years are all for you."

"for me?"

Li Chen chuckled, meaning something inexplicable.

Is it for me or for Li Chen?

No one in the world can answer this question.

Only I know that I am not Li Chen.

But...today, it's not Li Chen either.

If you take over the cause of your predecessor Li Chen, you have to bear the consequences.

Li Chen took a deep breath, pushed open the palace door, and stepped in alone.

Su Jinpa turned around and stood at the entrance of the palace, his face regained its stern expression, "All guards, draw your swords out of their sheaths and prepare for battle! From now on, until His Highness comes out, anyone who comes even half a step closer to Qianqing Palace will be killed!"

With a choking bang, the sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed was heard, and all the guards stood ready.

Su Jinpa personally stood guard in front of the palace gate. She would not leave even half a step before Li Chen came out.

Because she knew very well that the handover of this ancient empire, which had gone through more than 360 years of ups and downs, was happening behind her back.
