After a period of chaos, the chaos in the Yishu Palace finally subsided under the joint efforts of Queen Gu Linyu and Imperial Concubine Xiao Ting.

After Liang Shenglan, who fainted from crying, woke up, the imperial doctor asked Liang Shenglan for a pulse, and after confirming that Liang Shenglan was fine, Liang Shenglan was taken out of the palace by her husband Cheng Lan and taken back to Chengfu to recuperate.

As soon as Liang Shenglan left, the rest of the princesses who had left the cabinet also went out of the palace with their husbands and returned home. And Liang Ruming's concubines, except for Queen Gu Linyu and Imperial Concubine Xiao Ting, who still stayed in Yishu Palace, the rest of the concubines all returned to their own palaces......

As for the courtiers who entered the palace tonight and the families of the courtiers......

Except for a few high-ranking and powerful ministers of the court who still remained in the palace and dealt with all the matters behind Liang Ruming with the empress Gu Linyu and the imperial concubine Xiao Ting, the rest of the courtiers and all the courtiers' families all left the palace and returned to the house, waiting for news......

At this moment, in the brightly lit inner hall of Yishu Palace, only Liang Ruming, who was lying on the large and luxurious dragon bed, with a serene face, and Zhang Xuanfu, who was quietly kneeling in front of the dragon bed and carefully arranging Liang Ruming's remains......

In the outer hall of the Yishu Palace, which is also brightly lit, headed by the queen Gu Linyu and the imperial concubine Xiao Ting, Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, Liang Shengxiao, Liang Shengfeng, Liang Shengwu, Cheng Yuan, Gu Linyong, Gu Linfeng, Xiao Shun, Chen Yang, Yue Qing, Ji Yun, Zhang Yuwen, He Daowei and others all gathered in the outer hall of the Yishu Palace to discuss the major events behind Liang Ruming......

There are two golden seats on the main seat in the outer hall of the Yishu Hall at this moment, and the queen Gu Linyu and the imperial concubine Xiao Ting sit on the two golden seats one left and one right, but because of their identity, Xiao Ting's position is slightly lower than that of Gu Linyu......

Under the two golden seats of the main seat, there is a row of pear blossom wood Taishi chairs on the left and right sides.

According to the dignity of everyone's status, on the side of Gu Linyu, Liang Shenghao, Liang Shengwen, Liang Shengxiao, Liang Shengfeng, Liang Shengwu, Prime Minister Chengyuan and Gu Linyong, who served as the Taifu and concurrently served as the Taifu, sat on Xiao Ting's side.

At this moment, I could hear Xiao Shun, who was sitting on Xiao Ting's side, so cautiously asked Gu Linyu and Xiao Ting, who were sitting on the main seat in the hall, "The emperor left so suddenly...... Even our old ministers will not have time to summon them...... I wonder if the emperor can explain a thing or two before leaving?"

Xiao Shun finished speaking, and before the words dissipated, he could hear Ji Yunru, who was sitting under him, answer worriedly: "Yes, Niangniang! Although the emperor will be fine, it is a little inappropriate for us to talk about this matter at this time, but 'the country cannot be without a king for a day!!"

Immediately after Ji Yun, but Wen Chen Yang also cautiously asked Gu Linyu and Xiao Ting: "This change is too sudden, although our courtiers have already been prepared, can we ...... But the emperor did not summon us and others, but chose to succeed ......"

Compared with the euphemism and obscurity of Xiao Shun, Ji Yun, and Chen Yang, Gu Linyong, who was sitting on Gu Linyu's side, asked Gu Linyu very neatly and solemnly: "Queen Mother, can the emperor leave a will to determine the successor before leaving?"

In that room, Gu Linyu, who was sitting on the main seat in the hall, opened her mouth when she heard this, and said lightly: "This palace ......"

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Gu Linyu's words just began, and he had been standing in the corner of the hall, Leng Qing, who had been completely ignored by everyone in the hall because most of his body was hidden in the darkness outside the lights, suddenly spoke out and shouted so lightly.

Leng Qing's move not only successfully cut off Gu Linyu's words, but also attracted all the attention of everyone in the hall to her side.

In response to Leng Qing's sudden voice, Xiao Ting, who was also sitting in the main seat, quietly hooked the corner of one side of her lips, revealing an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, but then Xiao Ting's complexion returned to her previous calm and waveless state......

was suddenly interrupted, Gu Linyu was not very happy to think about it-

Seeing Gu Linyu, he immediately looked coldly at Leng Qing who was standing in the dark place in the corner of the hall, and reprimanded coldly in a soft voice but in a cold tone: "Didn't this palace let unrelated people retreat before, why are you still in the palace?"

In response to Gu Linyu's cold reprimand, standing in the corner of the hall, Leng Qing, who was hiding most of her body in the darkness outside the lights, just pursed her lips and smiled faintly: "Niangniang's words are different, I Leng Xin is not an unrelated person." ”

With that, Leng Qing walked out of the darkness and walked under the bright candlelight in the hall......

With Leng Qing slowly walking, combing the Wangxian bun, with a pure black crystal ginseng silver hairpin on the hairpin, and a few plain sky blue bead flowers, wearing a pair of silver silk earrings, wearing a sky blue neon dress, a dark red ribbon on the chest, a shawl with ink and fur of the same color, and stepping on the dark red koi embroidered shoes, Leng Qing, who stepped on the dark and dark carp embroidered shoes, gradually walked out of the darkness and walked into the bright lights in the hall......

Standing under the dazzling candlelight, Leng Qing looked around at everyone in the hall with a slight smile on her lips, and said slowly and unhurriedly: "I think that before I came, the debate between the ladies and sisters in the inner hall, you should have heard one or two. As for my Leng Xin's identity, only the emperor is clear in his heart, and Leng Xin doesn't have much to argue at the moment. But...... Before the emperor left, he did leave a legacy to Leng Xin, let Leng Xin tell you!"

Hearing Leng Qing's words, although everyone in the hall had different expressions, they all looked at Leng Qing intently, including Gu Linyu and Xiao Ting, no one spoke, and all of them waited for Leng Qing to continue to speak......

Only Gu Linfeng, who was sitting on Xiao Ting's side, questioned with a mocking expression: "You said that the emperor left a will for you and asked you to tell it, how do we know about the 'will' you relay...... If you are talking nonsense, how can we tell the truth from the false? Yes...... Still don't believe me??"

In the face of Gu Linfeng's mocking and provocative questioning, Leng Qing just smiled indifferently, and didn't sell it, and said indifferently in front of everyone: "Before the emperor left, because the ladies couldn't argue, all the maidens, including the queen, didn't notice the emperor's will. And I was sitting next to the emperor at the time, so the emperor directly gave me the last order and ordered me to convey it to you. ”

At this point, I saw Leng Qing Shi Shiran's gaze fall on Cheng Yuan, who was sitting on Gu Linyu's side.

Leng Qing first bowed to Cheng Yuan, who was sitting on the chair of the pear blossom wood master, and after standing up straight, Leng Qingfang said seriously: "The emperor didn't say anything else when he arrived, but only explained two things...... One of them is to let the prime minister do his best to recover the lost bloodline of Prince Rude at all costs. ”

At this point, Leng Qing shifted her gaze again, looked around at everyone present, and said at the same time: "Another thing, naturally, is the candidate for the successor to the throne that your lords, including all the ladies and ladies are most concerned about at the moment......"

As soon as Leng Qing said this, the outer hall of the Yishu Hall was instantly silent, and the needles could be heard......

In the waiting with bated breath and concentration, I saw that Leng Qing, who was standing under the bright and dazzling candlelight, slowly turned her eyes to look at Liang Shengxiao, who was sitting on Gu Linyu's side, slowly opened her mouth, and said clearly: "The emperor has left a will, saying, before recovering the lost pair of bloodlines of Prince Rude, the throne of this Great Liang will be temporarily replaced by Prince Xiao - Liang Shengxiao." ”

As soon as Leng Qing said this, the face of the imperial historian Xiao Shun changed and changed in an instant, and finally spit out a sentence with an ugly face like eating flies: "For the time being...... Temporary??"

Leng Qing didn't look at Xiao Shun, only honestly lowered her eyes to the ground in front of her, and nodded lightly: "Yes." Temporary. ”

After Leng Qing's affirmative answer, Xiao Shun's face suddenly turned blue and red, and he looked angry.

held back for a long time, but in the end, Xiao Shun suddenly got up and threw off his sleeves, and angrily scolded Leng Qing with disapproval: "This ...... This is the inheritance of the great unification, the major affairs of the country! It is not a child's son who plays a family! How can he temporarily replace !!?"

Xiao Shun was furious and scolded before he sat back, and He Daowei, the secretary of the Criminal Department who was sitting on Xiao Ting's side like him, immediately answered with a serious face: "That's right! Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for the temporary throne of all dynasties......

Leng Qing, who was standing in the hall, heard this, raised his eyes and glanced at He Daowei, who was speaking, and then Leng Qing pursed his lips and smiled slightly, and said casually: "From today onwards, there will be this precedent." ”

Xu is Leng Qing's attitude was too casual and not serious at all, so that Xiao Shun, who was a doctor of the imperial history and had an upright personality, immediately became even more angry: "Ridiculous! It's ridiculous!!"

On the other hand, Gu Linyong, who was sitting on the chair of the pear blossom wood master, suddenly looked straight at Leng Qing like a torch, his face was expressionless, and he asked in a serious tone: "Is the emperor really like this?"

Leng Qing, who was standing in the hall, looked at Gu Linyong in a voice, with a faint smile on her lips, and her tone was so casual that she seemed to be chatting with someone: "What? Lord Gu thinks these two emperors will leave behind...... Did I make it up?"

After asking like this, without waiting for Gu Linyong to speak, Leng Qing asked again: "Or, is it ...... The will left by Lord Gu to the emperor...... Got an opinion?"

"I don't dare. It's just that...... Let Prince Xiao temporarily take the throne today, but what about the future? If the bloodline of Prince Rude is recovered in the future, will it be difficult to ...... Do you want Prince Xiao to abdicate?" Gu Linyong directly ignored Leng Qing's previous rhetorical question, and answered Leng Qing's second rhetorical question with such a serious and serious expression.

"Yes! Master Gu is not bad at what he said!" As soon as Gu Lin Yong finished speaking, Zhang Yuwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, echoed him.

He Daowei, who was sitting on top of Zhang Yuwen, also echoed and said: "That's right! This grand succession to the throne is related to the national system, and it is not a child playing at home, so how can it be said that he will give up the throne?"

At this time, Leng Qing still maintained the faint smile on her lips: "Have you forgotten that if Prince Rude is still alive, this throne is originally Prince Rude's." Although the princess of Ruxiande died in childbirth, she left a pair of twins for the prince of Rude. If Prince Rude did not die, but successfully ascended the throne and became emperor, then in the future, the throne would ...... To whom will it be passed on?"

"This ......" Hearing Leng Qing's words, He Daowei was speechless for a while, and he couldn't come up with words to refute it for a while.

On the contrary, Zhang Yuwen cautiously reminded: "Prince Kerude...... It's a shackle after all......"

Yue Qing, who had never spoken, also echoed at this time: "It is impossible to change the fact that Prince Rude is killed......

When Chen Yang heard this, he nodded busily and agreed: "That's it...... There are no ifs in this world......"

At this time, Leng Qing always stood straight, the faint smile on her lips always floated faintly, and her voice was as gentle and casual as before: "No one has asked you to change the fact that Prince Rude has died, and the emperor has never thought about it like this." But...... Find the lost bloodline of Prince Rude and help Prince Rude's son ascend the throne and become emperor, I think you should still be able to do it. ”

Before Leng Qing could speak, he was immediately refuted by Gu Linfeng: "Even if you find it, what if you find it?

Zhang Yuwen immediately echoed: "That's it! Although I have heard of abdicating and giving way to Xian, I have never heard of such a abdication!!"

Ji Yun, who had not spoken since Leng Qing spoke, retorted at this time: "But this is the emperor's last order...... And this throne should indeed be passed on to the bloodline of Prince Rude, and there is nothing wrong with it!"

After Ji Yun finished speaking, Chen Yang also echoed: "What Lord Ji said is very true! Regardless of whether Leng Zhaoyi's testament is true or not, at least according to the ancestral etiquette, this throne should indeed be passed on to the bloodline of Prince Rude. And now that the emperor has made such an arrangement, it is also thoughtful......"

Before Chen Yang's words fell, he heard He Daowei retort solemnly: "Now that this throne has been ascended, if you have not committed a serious mistake, how can there be any reason to back down!

When Ji Yun heard this, he immediately retorted solemnly: "Lord He! Why did the emperor refuse to change the prince in the face of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military petitions, but he never wanted to change the prince? If what Leng Zhaoyi said was true, I am afraid that this is the reason why the emperor has never taken any action!"

Chen Yang obviously stood on the same position as Ji Yun, because Ji Yun had just finished speaking, and before the words fell, Chen Yang followed closely again and said: "That's right! Although Prince Rude has died, Prince Rude still has his bloodline in the world, if it weren't for the loss of Prince Confucian's bloodline, I am afraid that the emperor would have ordered the prince to be changed a long time ago." ”

Facing Ji Yun and Chen Yang's singing and harmony, He Daowei and Zhang Yuwen did not rush to refute this time, but glanced at each other quietly, and then quietly glanced at the face of Gu Linyong, who was sitting opposite them......

In fact, in the final analysis, whether it is the bloodline of Prince Rude or Prince Xiao...... Those are the grandsons of their solid family......

Thinking about it seriously, it seems that no matter which of these two people ascends the throne, that position ...... Aren't they all the grandchildren of their solid family sitting??

Especially the current head of the Gu family, except for a few words at the beginning, it seems that they haven't spoken much after that......

Faced with such a strange situation, He Daowei and Zhang Yuwen were really a little unsure whether they should continue to unswervingly support Prince Xiao or ......
