Chapter 245: Prime Minister
"Prime Minister, read it out. Sun Shangshu also followed, there was no sadness or joy on his face, it seemed that it didn't matter who was the emperor.
"Prime Minister......"
In the blink of an eye, several more people stood up and said.
The fourth prince's face was a little ugly, but he didn't say anything, no matter what, it was good to read the holy decree.
The prime minister looked at everyone with a calm expression, and under the mixed eyes of everyone, he opened the box and took out the golden holy decree from it.
Handed the box to an official beside him casually, and the prime minister pulled his hands and opened the holy decree.
Zhong Rao's breathing couldn't help but increase a little, but the prime minister was still calm, he first looked at the content on it, his eyes did not fluctuate, people could not see his true thoughts from his face, and it was impossible to guess the content of the holy decree from his face.
"Prime Minister—" The third prince shouted breathlessly, but before he could finish, the prime minister interrupted him.
"Decree-" As soon as the prime minister spoke, these people knelt on the lin.
"Flattering the emperor, the edict said: Mu Huabai, the fourth son of the Tanglin royal family, has a noble character, extraordinary spirit, deep Xiao Xiao, and will be able to overcome the throne of the emperor after I ascend the throne......" The prime minister's voice sounded in front of the imperial mausoleum without hurry, his volume was not loud, but everyone present could clearly hear his content.
After hearing his content clearly, many people turned pale, many people also showed joy, and some people were stunned.
"Mu Huage, the third son of the emperor, is my eldest son, with a sincere character, virtuous and talented, and is only fortunate for my Dongling, and now he is destined to be the prince of Zhong...... As these two words fell, everyone present was a little unable to come back to their senses.
The first to react was the third prince, who was deeply shocked, and shouted: "Impossible, Lone is the son-in-law, Lone is still the eldest son, Lone is the first heir!"
He jumped up from the ground with red eyes, and came to the prime minister, wanting to take the holy decree.
"Are the three princes questioning the old minister!" The prime minister stood still, glanced at the third prince, and his eyes were filled with a shocking coldness, which made him pause.
"Emperor, come back. The queen said solemnly, and stood up directly from the ground, her eyebrows shining with majesty.
The third prince was unwilling, with resentment in his eyes, but he still obediently retreated.
After such a fuss, everyone who had not yet returned to their senses came back to their senses at this time, and the people of the three princes and the party turned pale and panicked.
The people who stood on the side of the four princes were just the opposite, all of them were smiling, and their hearts couldn't be happy.
Those who remained neutral, some liked it, some felt disapprove, some looked at the prime minister, and the last remaining part of the people looked at the four princes with hidden scrutiny.
"Prime Minister, the holy decree has been read, can you let this palace see it with your own eyes? "The queen has been in charge of the harem for many years, and she has seen those dirty methods, so she doesn't believe the prime minister's words.
Many of the ministers present showed displeasure on their faces, and it was obvious that the queen's actions had annoyed them, but the queen did not notice this.
The prime minister glanced at her faintly, and without saying a word, he directly handed over the holy decree in his hand.
The queen stretched out her hand to take it, opened the holy decree and looked at it carefully, and the three princes on the side hurriedly put their heads together and followed suit.
However, no matter how you look at it, the content above is exactly the same as what the prime minister read out before.
"Queen Mother, is there something wrong with what the old minister is reading? Do you need to see the authenticity of the holy decree?" asked the prime minister with a calm face.
"No, the prime minister's words are true, and the palace has nothing to say. The queen held back, closed the holy decree in her hand, and said, "Emperor, let's go." ”
handed the holy decree back to the prime minister, the queen led her men and horses to turn around and leave, the third prince glanced at the fourth prince viciously, dropped a sentence, and followed the queen's footsteps with a gloomy face,
"Mu Huabai, you won't be proud for long. ”
This time, it was completely torn apart and completely stood on the opposite side.
The fourth prince swept away the unhappiness on his face, uncontrollable excitement, excitement, but he also had a melancholy in his heart, and his mood was complicated, but he hadn't forgotten where he was at this time, and quickly cleaned up the expression on his face, a calm and calm smile hung on the corner of his mouth, directly ignored his words, stretched out his hand and respectfully took the holy decree in the prime minister's hand, his fingertips trembled slightly.
"Congratulations to the four princes, no, congratulations to the emperor. The corners of the prime minister's mouth also turned up slightly, and he seemed to say with a hint of a smile.
"Lonely, I will definitely not live up to my father's trust!" The fourth prince steadied his mood and was excited, and his serious face looked very majestic.
The officials of the four princes and the party looked excited, took the lead in kneeling down towards the four princes, and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor!"
Then, the rest of the people, one by one, including the prime minister, all the people present knelt down on the rain and respectfully shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."
The four princes, who were standing in the middle of everyone kneeling, watched everyone present bow to him, and he only felt that his heart was surging, his heart seemed to be lit with a fire, and his eyes were shining.
He clenched his fists and said secretly in his heart: No wonder so many people want to be emperors even after breaking their heads, this feeling is really good.
In the imperial mausoleum behind them, Gonggong Chen leaned against the closed stone door, quietly listening to the movement outside the door, and when he heard that the prime minister actually read out the true content of the holy decree, his eyes flashed with doubt, and he muttered: "Could it be that the miscellaneous family made a mistake, and the prime minister is innocent?"
Gonggong Chen frowned, the reason why he entered the imperial mausoleum was not only his one, but also to find out the murderer, and Prime Minister Zhou Sheng was the object of his greatest suspicion, but there was no evidence, and the prime minister didn't seem to have any motives, but with years of intuition, he just felt that the prime minister was the most suspicious.
The third prince in the distance heard a loud sound behind him, his dark face became even darker, his hands were clenched into fists, his lungs were about to explode, and the jealousy and hatred in his eyes were like seeping poisonous snakes, which made Quan Zhan frightened.
"Emperor, what are you doing like this?" the queen asked with a frown.
"Queen Mother!"
The third prince called out in a sullen voice, "Why should I be inferior to him?!Why did my father give him the throne instead of me?!Where did my eldest son ??! because my father did this?"
"Don't worry, what belongs to you, the queen mother will definitely take it back for you, and no one can take it away!" the queen said sharply.
"Queen Mother......" Hearing her words, the third prince gradually calmed down, looked at the figure surrounded by everyone in the distance, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, "That's right, it's my things, no one can snatch them!
Soon, everyone followed the new emperor and left, before the prime minister left, he glanced at the closed stone door with deep meaning, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a strange smile, and then, he flicked his sleeves and walked away.
Gonggong Chen behind the stone gate naturally didn't know the prime minister outside the stone gate, and he glanced at the direction of the stone gate before leaving, otherwise he might not know how ugly his face was.
Gonggong Chen listened attentively, his spiritual power was released, and the imperial tomb was placed in a formation, and his spiritual power could not penetrate into the outside world, but it could penetrate into the outside world inside. That's why he didn't dare to hide here.
His spiritual power could clearly feel that there was no one outside the stone gate, if it weren't for the cautious fear of being noticed by the prime minister's old horseman, he would have used his spiritual power a long time ago.
"Could it really be that I misunderstood?" Chen Gonggong was puzzled, when he was suspicious of the prime minister, he was thinking about the motive, and after thinking about it, there seems to be only one motive, that is-seeking power and usurping the throne!
It was precisely because of this speculation that he planned to test it, so he used himself as bait to enter the imperial tomb, so that the prime minister had no scruples, and put the choice of the new emperor in his hands, just to grab his fox tail!
I thought that he should be able to tamper with the holy decree and choose the third prince who was more controlled, but I didn't expect to choose the fourth prince instead!
"Is there no interest in the powerful throne, or is there some conspiracy in it?" Chen Gonggong was puzzled, only feeling that the current situation was a mess.
"No matter what, if it is a misunderstanding of the miscellaneous family, the miscellaneous family will personally come to the door to ask for the guilt, pay it or not, Zhou Sheng, the miscellaneous family will let you pay for your blood debts!"
There are many crises in the imperial mausoleum, and there are countless traps of all kinds, but for him, it is like his own back garden, and he walks very easily......
Mu Huabai and his entourage, as soon as they walked out of the imperial tomb, were assassinated by a group of black-clothed Rao.
"Who is it?!" The members of the Imperial Guard of the Sky Griffin Regiment hurriedly commanded the griffons who sat down, and one swooped down, entangled with the man in black.
The black-clothed Rao Xiuwei was between the fifth and sixth orders, even if there were people from the imperial guards, there were still many people who were injured, but simply, the new emperor Mu Huabai was not harmed.
Mu Huabai looked at the black-clothed man lying on the ground, his face was a little ugly, he had just walked out of the range of the imperial tomb, Mu Huage couldn't help but make a move?!
That's the case, Brother Sanhuang, don't blame me for being ruthless!
The prime minister on the side looked at the look on Mu Huabai's face, and a hint of happiness flashed in his eyes......
And when the third prince received the news that Mu Huabai had been assassinated, he just sneered: "You were assassinated just after you walked out of the imperial mausoleum? Mu Huabai, Mu Huabai, how hated you are!"
Immediately, he looked at the ministers sitting in the hall, and said gloomily: "Come, let's discuss and discuss, how to bring the four princes who killed their father and usurped the throne to justice!"
The word "law" contained a thick evil aura, which made those people who were summoned by the three princes and the party tremble all over their bodies and involuntarily looked away.
In the Har Mountains, the palace where Zhujiazhuang is located, when the owner of Zhujiazhuang knew that the store had a ninth-level spirit beast in the town, he refused to be an enemy with it, but thinking of his son who died tragically, thinking of the elders who died in vain, and thinking of his own face that was trampled on the soles of his feet by the other party, the owner of Zhujiazhuang had a hideous face, and smashed a brand-new table with a punch, and his face was cloudy.
"I'll personally-" Go, the owner of Zhujiazhuang's words were not finished, and all the elders below opened their mouths to dissuade them.
"Zhuang Master, by all means, to deal with ninth-order spirit beasts, ordinary ninth-order cultivators don't dare to mess around. One of the elders hurriedly dissuaded, although his words were not finished, the meaning was obvious, the ninth-order cultivators did not dare to mess around, your strength was not enough for others to scatter their teeth.
"Is that all, or do you want to invite the Supreme Elder?" the owner of Zhujiazhuang had a calm face, and his fists squeaked.
All the elders and Dharma protectors present looked at each other, and Elder Taishang would not appear until the life and death of Zhujiazhuang.
"Owner, I have a way, aren't you that shop a seven-grade spiritual artifact, we can completely spread the news, so that there are countless high-level monks who can deal with the shop without us having to do anything. An elder stood up and stroked his chin and beard.
When the owner of Zhujiazhuang heard it, he felt that this song was good, but he said with some hesitation: "But Elder Wind Protection, he has taken a fancy to that seven-grade spiritual weapon, and this method is not corrected."
Now everyone is a little embarrassed, the seven-grade spirit weapon, if they are not moved, it is fake, and the elder who made the suggestion also made such a suggestion because he wanted to fish in troubled waters, but at this time, when they heard that the wind protected him, they all hesitated.
"It's actually the Wind Protector, so I can only think of other ways. "It's a pity for everyone, but Feng Hu is a hidden elder, and there is a Supreme Elder standing behind him, so it's not for them to offend.
"Haha, your mind has been accepted, but this method has been agreed!" With this voice, the figure of Feng Hu suddenly appeared in the main hall
A week later, the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor was held, and during this week, there was a tense atmosphere in Kyoto, with a hint of solemnity about the coming of the storm, and in such an atmosphere that many people would rather stay at home than go out.
However, these have no impact on the delicious restaurant at all, no, there are really some of them, and the number of customers who come to the restaurant to dine is significantly less!
This, the sky is clear, the warm eyes are swaying, and it is only four days before the new emperor ascends the throne.
Qin Xiu opened the shop as always, but the number of diners at the door was still nearly half, this situation couldn't help but make him frown, his eyebrows had grown back in just a few moments, and even his hair had turned into an inch, although it looked a little weird, but at least it wouldn't make people think that he was a monk.
With half of the customers missing, can his turnover reach 100,000 in three months, Qin Xiu muttered in his heart.
However, although the task of turnover made him a little troubled, it did not make him feel anxious, and he still kept the business as usual unhurriedly.
"Boss Qin, bring me a ecstasy meal. The war spirit walked into the door of the store and said to Qin Xiu, who was half-lying on the swivel chair behind the bar.
Qin Xiu raised his eyes and forgot about him, and slowly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
"That's right, Boss Qin. The war spirit casually found a seat and sat down, and said casually to Qin Xiu's back, "Recently, there have been a lot of people from outside the city in Kyoto. ”
Qin Xiu ignored it, and instead came to the kitchen door.
"Listen to the delicious shop, it's a seven-grade defense artifact. The War Spirit said with interest.
