Transmigrating into a Big Villain in the Book Novel - Chapter 298
298. Chapter 298: Imperial Edict
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
The soldiers and the generals all brought their swords to the imperial palace. The imperial army received the news and immediately went there. The situation was critical, and they didn’t ask clearly. They only knew that it was a rebellion, but they didn’t expect that it was Qi Cheng.
“General Qi, what are you doing?” Pang Chao asked.
Qi Cheng took out the token and asked word for word, “Is this the token of the imperial army?”
Pang Chao frowned. “This…”
This token was indeed the imperial army’s token, but seeing such a gloomy Qi Cheng and thinking of what happened in the General’s Mansion, Pang Chao thought it was impossible for everything to happen so coincidentally.
Therefore, the answer was obvious.
Qi Cheng did not wait for Pang Chao to answer but said directly, “It seems to he true.”
Pang Chao quickly said, “General Qi, this is definitely a libel, we…”
Qi Cheng didn’t want to talk nonsense with him. “Every token of the imperial army has a personnel record, find it.”
Pang Chao looked at Qi Cheng who was decisive and firm, then he nodded. “Yes, I will investigate it immediately.”
Then he ordered the people around him, “Hurry up, go and investigate.”
After receiving the order, he quickly found out, “Commander, this token is Sun Xi’s.”
Pang Chao’s expression changed. “Have you investigated clearly?”
“Yes!”
Pang Chao’s face darkened. “Where’s he?”
“He is gone, I’ve asked. Not only Sun Xi is gone, but also the whole team is gone.”
Qi Cheng drew his sword and pointed at Pang Chao. “The imperial army only obeys the Emperor’s orders. Now that the token of the imperial army was found in General Lin’s residence. What else do you have to say, piss off!”
Pang Chao was very hesitant, but then he pulled out his sword and faced Qi Cheng. “I’m sorry, General Qi, the task of the imperial army is to protect the palace. So I’m sorry, I have to arrest you.”
“He is just a temporary substitute.” Qi Cheng gripped his sword tightly. “Don’t forget who is the real Emperor.”
Pang Chao said, “Nowadays we have no news about Si Yuhan. As an official, I only know the current Emperor.”
“Senseless loyalty!”
Soon someone reported to Si Chenye in the Golden Palace soon reported that Qi Cheng had led the army into the palace.
When Si Chenye heard the news, he couldn’t help but sneer. ‘Qi Cheng is indeed a stupid person, he still dares to do such a thing in the current situation.’
The officials also heard this news and someone immediately said, “Qi Cheng is clearly rebelling.”
“Qi Cheng is too bold.”
“Your Majesty, you must severely punish them.”
“Rebellion is a great sin of killing nine generations.”
…
While the officials were saying one sentence after another, the guard at the door suddenly flew in and fell to the ground.
The officials who were still talking suddenly fell silent. For a time, the Golden Palace was so quiet that it could be heard if a needle fell to the ground.
Qi Cheng’s cold voice sounded, “Continue to talk, why not?”
Pang Chao followed behind Qi Cheng. He looked at Si Chenye with disgust and murderous intent.
Si Chenye felt a little uneasy.
The officials were naturally aware of this situation. They couldn’t afford to offend Qi Cheng because he had followed Si Yuhan before, then his methods were naturally no worse than Si Yuhan’s, so they all looked at Pang Chao.
“Commander Pang, quickly arrest him.”
Pang Chao took a step forward. Just now, Qi Cheng’s figure had blocked him, but now that he had taken a step forward, everyone saw that the thing in his hand was clearly an imperial edict. For a while, everyone’s expressions were complicated.
