Chapter 154: Forced to Abdicate

Chapter 154: Forced to Abdicate (Subscribe)

The purpose was the same as before. Privy Councilor Ye Zhong directly recommended Shen Qingzhou to go fight in the Western Hu, but Emperor Qing directly disagreed. This was a case of singing the same tune.

If you want to remove Shen Qingzhou's power over the Six Gates, you can't do it directly, because Shen Qingzhou is a man of great merit. It is because of this that this alliance with the Right Wise King of Western Hu was formed.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Nan Qing didn’t notice it, but he deliberately didn’t deal with it. Otherwise, even if it could succeed, it would take some time.

Ku He felt helpless. This time, he was also being used. He had promoted the alliance on the grassland, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth. It seemed that it was for Shen Qingzhou.

If they want to prevent Shen Qingzhou from controlling the Six Gates, the first thing to do is to transfer him away from Kyoto. It cannot be the same as before, where he leaves Kyoto but is still the master of the Six Gates.

This time, take advantage of this opportunity and go to the grassland. It is too easy for a country to target a general.

And with the birth of the World Masters List, the progress has become even faster. The force under Shen Qingzhou's command is too amazing and must be controlled.

This banquet is actually waiting for what happened on the grassland, so that Shen Qingzhou will have to suffer in silence. If you go to the grassland, it won't be good for you to still control the Six Gates of Kyoto. This is an open conspiracy.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the grassland is of great importance. Except for Duke Wu, other generals in the court have no deterrent power over the grassland. Please forgive me for being so bold, but if Duke Wu was guarding the grassland, this incident would not have happened." Qin Ye also came forward. The military leaders all agreed. Many people knew that Shen Qingzhou would be squeezed out to the grassland.

Don't be fooled by the nice words these people say. If you go to the grassland, it is very likely that they will restrict your military power. They transferred you back because they are afraid that you will become powerful with your own troops. Now that they let you go out, there will naturally be restrictions.

No one could think of Shen Qingzhou's way out of the impasse. Rebellion was not a possibility. You had no manpower and had to defect to another country. You killed so many people in Dongyi City and Northern Qi. What could you do? As for expanding territory and establishing yourself as a king, no one had thought about it. It was too serious.

"Your Majesty, please consider this. I second this motion."

"Wei Chen seconded the proposal."

A bunch of people pretended to agree. This was a tacit understanding. Emperor Qing did not tell them what to do, but at this point, as an official, you should know what to do.

"Master, can we invite him to join Northern Qi?" Haitang Duoduo whispered.

"Going to Northern Qi is the same as the current situation. Nothing has changed. Let's wait and see." Ku He said.

He did not take the crisis that everyone seemed to be facing seriously at all. Only he, who had fought with Shen Qingzhou, knew that this man could be called an alternative grandmaster. However, this group of people did not see it with their own eyes and did not dare to believe it.

"Alas, Duke Wu is a most loyal and supportive minister of the Kingdom of Qing. In this situation, it seems that Duke Wu is the only one who can be appointed." Emperor Qing pretended.

Many people were watching the excitement in complete silence. Writing poetry was entertainment before, and now watching the court sideline Shen Qingzhou was also lively and interesting.

"Your Majesty." The queen wanted to say something again, she couldn't go, could she come back if she went.

"How can the harem interfere in politics?" An old female voice sounded. Hong Sixiang tried to use his aura to suppress the queen, but the aura of the leader behind the queen disappeared in an instant.

Ordinary people or ordinary masters are not aware of this collision of momentum. Only grand masters and those at the peak of the ninth level can feel it for a moment.

Many people were shocked. It was incredible that he could respond in front of the grand master. Everyone thought that Hong Sixiang was the grand master and that he was not serious. Only he knew how surprised he was. This man was a bit scary.

Many people were quite impressed by the Eighteen Tiger and Leopard Riders. Even though they were all ninth-rank, they dared to fight against the Grand Master. It was incredible. "Your Majesty, you can grant Duke Wu the Tiger Talisman and recruit the Tiger and Leopard Riders to the border. It would be most appropriate for the Tiger and Leopard Riders to become famous all over the world.

The Eighteen Tiger and Leopard Riders are all ninth-rank masters. I request that they be promoted and given titles, so that people will not say that our Qing Kingdom does not value talents." Chen Pingping spoke.

Everyone was very surprised. This was going to kill Shen Qingzhou in one go, the Eighteen Tiger and Leopard Riders, and then take away all six doors. What would Shen Qingzhou have left?

Is this excessive? After thinking about it, yes, but this is a feudal society, so it seems normal.

Si Gu Jian's heart was slightly moved. It was not enough. He needed to be oppressed a little more before he could recruit Shen Qingzhou. It would be a good thing if Dongyi City could recruit Shen Qingzhou. They were originally a three-legged race with experts.

"Duke Wu, this is a matter of national importance. I will send you to gather the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, rush to the border, and command the troops in Dingzhou." Emperor Qing asked this with great pride.

He actually knew that Shen Qingzhou had already recruited some people, which was one of the reasons why he was ruthless this time. If they didn't obey, they would be taught a lesson. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Six Gates would become your private army.

Emperor Qing had wanted to do this for a long time, and he was not afraid of how many people Shen Qingzhou would take with him. This group of people did not appear suddenly, and they all had their hometowns. If they were not your superiors, who would dare to patronize you?

"Duke Wu, accept the order." Eunuch Hou came up holding the token. This was too much preparation. In fact, it was also a demonstration by Emperor Qing. This would be the result if you don't obey.

Eunuch Hou stepped back and left, thinking that Shen Qingzhou was too arrogant. He didn't even put in any effort and was just closing his eyes to rest.

"Your Majesty, Duke Wu has traveled far to the border. The Six Gates are located in the mountains and have long journeys, so it may be inappropriate to handle official business there. You can let the God of Capture temporarily lead the Six Gates until Your Majesty personally appoints someone else to lead them." Chen Pingping said.

The God of Capture has already refused once, and this is his punishment. Now, the Six Gates do not belong to Shen Qingzhou, and he will not let you lead them, so you just take charge for the time being.

"God Catcher, what do you have to say?" Emperor Qing asked, it was time to harvest.

"Your Majesty, you can make the decision on the affairs of the Six Gates. However, I am not capable enough to lead the Six Gates. In addition, I have been feeling unwell recently, so I plan to retire and return home." As soon as the God of Capture said this, not only Emperor Qing, but even Shen Qingzhou opened his eyes.

He was not afraid of this group of people's betrayal, let alone military strength. Even without military strength, the life and death of these people depended on a single thought. He did not know what Emperor Qing was going to do, so he did not prepare. He was confident in the fighting power of the grandmaster.

But I didn't expect the God Catcher to be so shameless. You can choose not to be the leader of the Six Gates, but using this reason is a bit too insulting. You are retiring at the age of thirty, you are slapping Emperor Qing in the face.

Everyone thought that the God Catcher was crazy. Is it necessary for you to do this? Loyalty is right, and you can be loyal to Shen Qingzhou, but you are going too far.

"You actually did this? You're so ruthless." Emperor Qing was getting angry. Shen Qingzhou was disobedient, and neither were his subordinates. However, what they lacked was people. He was trapped. You don't want to lead the Six Gates, right? There are other people.

In fact, the God Catcher is the best choice. Everyone knows that he is the one who actually manages the Six Gates. No one understands why he is so loyal.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report. I have caught a cold and plan to retire and return home." Wuqing knew what he meant as soon as he was called and stood up and said.

"I, your humble servant (×3), feel that I am not capable enough and would like to retire and return home. I hope Your Majesty will grant my approval." The other three of the Four Famous Detectives also stood up.
