Liu Niangniang said, she really took out an edict, insisted on it in front of her, and slowly unfolded it.

An Shihong didn't move, but several princes and ministers couldn't help but step forward to take a look.

The edict is written by Emperor Changxing himself, and it is not only printed with jade seals, but also his private seals and the seals of these old men.

Everyone sighed in their hearts: It is indeed true, but it is a pity that the mandate of heaven is divine, and An Shicheng is not blessed.

Several elders were also secretly surprised.

They still remember that Emperor Changxing solemnly said that day: "It is not feasible, the edict has been destroyed, for the sake of the lives of the Lu Guogong family, you must not leak a word." ”

How could they not know the severity, so they swore a heavy oath that they would not force themselves to forget about it in the future.

Later, Liu was sentenced, An's Chaozhong County Dragon had no leader, everyone recommended King Liang, they had no edict as evidence, and the Lu State Mansion had no merit, rashly proposed, the probability of success is too small, once the thing does not work, I am afraid of causing trouble for the Lu State Mansion, so they tacitly chose not to say a word.

Who knows, the edict has been preserved, they don't know the reason, they don't dare to say a word, but after many years, when they see the handwriting of Emperor Changxing again, they can't help but think of the friendship between monarchs and ministers over the years, and can't help but cry.

After the king of Ningtai County checked that it was correct, he was really relieved.

He has already offended An Shihong, and if An Shihong can't be pulled off the horse, his family will not be good in the future.

Looking at His Majesty the Emperor, who had turned pale since the edict was taken out, King Ningtai became more and more happy, and said with a smile: "With this edict, all the unreasonable incidents about the Lujun Mansion can be easily explained, and your father and son are bent on putting the Lujun Mansion to death, which everyone can understand." Since King Liang has passed away, the deceased is the greatest, so we won't mention it. However, His Majesty said that if the will is true, he would rather give way, and the gentleman said that it would be difficult to chase the horse, and he asked the emperor to honor it. ”

An Shihong couldn't help clenching his fists, and the throne naturally couldn't be conceded. This is the result of many years of planning, how can he surrender it to the palace of Lujun? Moreover, with the things that his father and son have committed in the past, once the authority falls, what awaits him will be a disaster in prison.

As early as when the will was taken out, An Shihong quietly signaled to his cronies with his eyes, and a small chamberlain received the signal, quietly took a few steps back, sheltered behind people, and saw that no one was paying attention, so he took a few steps back again, lifted the corner of his clothes and left here lightly.

An Shihong's afterglow swept over, and his heart was settled.

Everyone in the palace was attracted by the edict and did not pay attention to it, and although the king of Ningtai County has been staring at An Shihong, he is not a careful person, and he has not seen it, but he said proudly: "Oh, by the way, Your Majesty is worried that An Shicheng's son is young and will be used as a puppet." This is not a matter, the so-called brother is the last brother, and he still has a brother, so let An Shimao inherit it. ”

Anyway, the number of thrones comes and goes, and it doesn't fall on him, but he is happy to be a good person.

An Shihong didn't say a word with a dark face, and it wasn't until everyone had read the edict that he ordered his chamberlain to step forward to take the edict, wanting to take a closer look.

Liu Niangniang was also generous, put away the edict and handed it to the chamberlain, and said with a smile: "Now that I am done, it is time to go back to the palace to recuperate, and I don't have to ask about the world anymore." ”

Liu Niangniang said nothing, and really walked out of the hall without any nostalgia.

Several envoys were also invited to go down - now they were so angry that it was useless for them to stay here.

After the group left, the hall was silent again.

The rain outside was getting heavier, and a few thunders could be heard in the distance. The dull sound of thunder sounded in their ears, and everyone felt a little uneasy in their hearts.

The hundred officials all secretly said bad luck in their hearts.

It turned out that most of the An's clansmen of Dachu were given titles by grace, but although they looked at their high powers, except for a few who held military power, most of them were superficial, although they also participated in court politics, their influence was limited, and most of the major affairs of the court and government were handled by the emperor and the cabinet and the six ministries.

Therefore, although the magnates are fighting hotly, the officials below are rarely attached, and they only do their own things in peace, and they are not too involved, which is also the reason why the throne has been changed diligently in recent years, and the daily life of the court and the central government can still run as usual.

But today, the officials were passively stirred in.

King Liang's father and son are in power, and An Shicheng, the heir to Emperor Changxing's edict, will not be able to live, and in the same way, once the Lujun Mansion becomes the emperor, An Shihong is afraid that there will be nothing to live.

Everyone understands this simple truth, so An Shihong will not give up the throne easily, and similarly, King Ningtai and others will definitely force An Shihong to abdicate in order to survive.

Everyone can almost foresee the bloody rain that will follow,

With the wind, rain and thunder outside, everyone became more and more frightened.

An Shihong was reading the edict, and he knew in his heart that this was true, and there was no way to fake it.

But he still didn't give up, and slowly looked at it again, first, to calm down and think about countermeasures, and on the other hand, he also made the idea of delaying time.

Time passed little by little, everyone's hearts tightened a little, and even their breathing slowed down, and the hall became more and more lifeless.

King Ningtai became impatient: "Your Majesty has been staring at this for a long time without saying a word, is it expected to see a hole in this edict? So what, even if you destroy it, it can't be fake, and it can't be true." Say, what should I do?"

An Shihong couldn't help but close his eyes. It was also because he didn't think about it, because he thought that the main son was dead, and his father and son had been the emperor for many years, and they were already firm, and when he wanted to posthumously give An Shicheng the position of emperor, he sent it away.

I don't want to, Ning Tai, the old immortal, has been forced again and again, he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and shouted: "King Ningtai, you don't want to force people too much!"

King Ningtai was surprised: "This is not right, when did the minister force you? That was what you said personally, and the edict was true, so it gave way to An Shicheng." Now that An Shicheng has been killed by your father, and there is no way to stand up, isn't it normal to pass on the throne to his brothers and nephews? I don't know to whom Your Majesty is going to give up the throne? An Tianyou or An Shimao? In the end, it's not that your father and son are greedy for the throne!"

An Shihong laughed angrily: "Isn't it child's play to inherit the throne! Uncle Ningtai is so old that he doesn't even know this truth?"

After An Shihong sneered, he continued: "I am not greedy for the throne, but I know that the change of emperor is eventful. At that time, the first emperor inherited the throne, but because of his contribution to the An family, he was elected by the clan, and he came to the right and bright, and my throne was the son inheriting his father's business, and it was in front of everyone, and the first emperor personally issued an edict, which was justified. And An Shimao is short, An Tianyu is young and intellectual, and he easily promises the throne, and he doesn't know what kind of chaos he is going to make. Therefore, for the sake of the Great Chu Jiangshan Society, I dare not abandon the throne lightly. ”
