Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

At midnight, when most people are already asleep, the Xishan Villa District still exudes a unique tranquility and peace.

A bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a silvery-white glow, shrouding this mansion hidden in the shade of green trees in a layer of dreamy veil.

In the study room on the second floor, Young Master Chu sat alone at the desk. He was not reviewing any documents or reading any books. Instead, he sat quietly under the light of the desk lamp.

Suddenly, the door of the study was gently pushed open, and an elegant figure walked into the room, breaking the original silence.

Bai Xiaolu was wearing a white silk pajamas and holding an exquisite porcelain cup in her right hand. The cup was filled with steaming milk. The milky white liquid looked particularly tempting under the light.

"Yuchen, have a glass of milk!"

Bai Xiaolu put the porcelain cup in her hand on the desk and walked to Mr. Chu's side. She asked softly, "It's so late and you're still not resting. Is something big going to happen again?"

Young Master Chu casually put his arm around Bai Xiaolu and lowered his head slightly. His eyes naturally noticed the charming cleavage revealed at the neckline embroidered with delicate lace.

The white deer, after taking a bath, had a body as soft as cotton and exuded a faint fragrance. This familiar and charming scent always allowed Young Master Chu to find a moment of peace in his heart.

"What did you go to discuss with mom today when you came back from Changshi?"

Young Master Chu's deep gaze reluctantly moved up from the white jade-like collar, and finally stopped at the pair of clear eyes like lake water, and changed the subject: "Are you hiding something from me?"

Bai Xiaolu was slightly startled. She didn't expect that her lover would be so keenly aware of her unusual behavior today.

A hint of hesitation flashed across her bright eyes, but under the gentle and firm gaze of Young Master Chu, she chose to be honest.

"It was your mother who invited my parents to come to the capital tomorrow to discuss our wedding."

Bai Xiaolu's voice was gentle: "I know you are busy recently, so I want to ask, are you free to have dinner together tomorrow night?"

"That's all? Nothing else?"

Young Master Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, trying to capture more information.

"That's it."

Bai Xiaolu lowered her eyes slightly, and gently rubbed Master Chu's big hand with her small hand, and said softly: "I have been in contact with Sister Qingzhu these days, and she said you are very busy... My parents also told you to focus on state affairs."

"No matter how busy you are, you have to receive Master Taishan and Master Taishui when he comes."

Young Master Chu reached out his hand and gently lifted her smooth and delicate chin, forcing her to look up and look at him. Just as he was about to lower his head to taste that fragrant little mouth, the phone on the table suddenly "buzzed..." vibrated.

Bai Xiaolu glanced at Master Chu with resentment, exerted a little force, and broke free from his embrace: "Then you go ahead, I'm going to rest first."

"it is good!"

Young Master Chu glanced at the caller ID, his expression instantly became serious, he nodded slightly, picked up the phone, answered the call, and asked in a deep voice: "Commander Lin, how is the progress?"

……

Time goes back an hour.

White elephant, the capital of Asan Kingdom.

The military building was brightly lit at this moment.

The spacious conference room was filled with many talented people.

A meeting on military reorganization is about to begin.

Chief Minister Singh's expression changed constantly, and he kept looking at the time on his wrist.

9:30 p.m.

Singh's eyes flashed with a cold light, and with a stern look on his face, he picked up a special landline on the desk without hesitation, and ordered in an unquestionable voice: "According to the secret order of the Prime Minister, from now on, the military will take full control of the capital and implement martial law. Without my order, no one is allowed to leave the capital. Those who violate the order will be shot on the spot."

As Singh's order was issued, the soldiers who had been ready in the military camp quickly got into the cars under the guidance of their respective officers and drove out of the camp.

Soon, vehicles loaded with soldiers and live ammunition appeared on the streets of Deli.

The originally bustling road suddenly became empty and quiet. The citizens were stunned by this sudden change. Many people peeked at the situation outside through the windows, their hearts filled with confusion and fear.

Shops were closed, schools were on holiday early, and even the usually busy markets closed early. The entire city seemed to have pressed the pause button.

The military has set up checkpoints at key intersections and around government buildings, and soldiers armed with live ammunition patrolle vigilantly.

In the air, helicopters were circling and patrolling, closely monitoring any abnormal situation. All this showed that the military had begun to take full control of the capital's security situation and was enforcing the provisions of the highest level of martial law.

At the entrance of the military building, an armored convoy led by three tanks soon appeared.

Teams of well-trained soldiers quickly jumped out.

The soldiers guarding the gate had already received orders to open the gate and let the soldiers rush in.

……

Prime Minister's Residence.

When the Dimo ​​guards stationed here saw armed soldiers jumping out of the fast-approaching military convoy, they shouted "Stop" and gunshots were heard.

As the conflict in the Prime Minister's Residence broke out, the fierce gunfire instantly startled Dimo, who was working in his study.

He was slightly stunned, and with a serious look on his face, he picked up the phone and asked his secretary: "Go to the door and see what happened? Why are there gunshots?"

"Bang."

A few minutes later, the door of the study was pushed open, and the panicked secretary shouted, "Mr. Prime Minister, it's bad. The army transferred back from the north has started a rebellion... They are attacking your guards."

"what?"

Dimo's face turned pale instantly. He stood up suddenly from his chair, with a flash of disbelief in his eyes: "What did you say? Army rebellion? How is that possible!"

His voice trembled, revealing his extreme shock and anxiety.

After a pause, he asked hurriedly, "Where's Singh? Call him immediately and ask him to send troops to suppress the rebellion."

The secretary had a look of fear on his face, breathing heavily, and trying to stay calm: "Your Excellency, Chief Singh is holding an expanded military meeting in the military building, and is now under siege by the rebels."

At this time, the gunshots became more frequent.

Singh glanced sullenly out of the window.

I saw two armored vehicles driving into the yard of the official residence. The machine guns on the vehicles were firing everywhere frantically. Bullets poured down like raindrops, stirring up clouds of dust.

The walls, doors and windows of the official residence were shaking under the fierce shooting, and debris was flying everywhere, and the scene was in chaos. Although the soldiers of Dimo's direct guard fought back bravely, they were gradually defeated due to the fierce firepower of the enemy.

Dimo's heart was beating wildly, and he knew he was on the verge of life and death. He made a quick decision and ordered: "Organize people immediately to protect me and evacuate to the safe house in the basement!" The secretary and other staff members hurriedly agreed and began to organize the evacuation.

Just as they were preparing to act, there was a loud bang that shook the whole mansion. A mortar shell landed not far away, and the shock wave shattered several windows, and glass fragments fell like hail. The lights in the room flickered, smoke and dust filled the air, and the smell of burning was filled.
