The merits and demerits are undecided, and only the coffin can be known.

The order hall of Emperor Tiande is located in the Requiem Pavilion, which is the order hall of the Daxing Emperors of the Taizheng Dynasty.

The Requiem Pavilion is not too spacious, solemn and solemn, and the most profound feeling is grief and solemnity when people walk into the majesty of the emperor's house.

For example, today, Emperor De is dressed neatly and lying quietly in the Nanmu coffin, with the peace of the dead Yuan Zhi and everything.

Three days is a long time for the entire Murong royal family and the court of Taizheng, after seven days, the emperor's coffin will be sent to the Tieji Temple to be placed, and the monks will surpass the soul of the dead, and wait for 7749 days to be buried in the ground. In the past three days, the crown prince Murong Zhiyuan and several other little princes of Emperor Tiande have been guarding the spirit together, and Murong Yichuan has pretended to be grief-stricken from beginning to end, if you don't know the inside story, you really think that they have a deep brotherly relationship, but you don't know that this qiē is Murong Yichuan's performance, God knows how long he waited for this day, although his crying and tears were acting, but deep down he still had an inexplicable pain, after all, he was the executioner who killed his brother, If it weren't for the fact that he ordered Sha Boliu to refine the poisonous elixir and then put the pill bunker that the emperor was taking, how could the emperor be terminally ill so quickly, if it wasn't for the two pills of his own snowy night, how could his brother go so fast? This qiē was planned by him, for the throne he did not hesitate to kill his own eldest brother, but he still did it unknowingly, although he killed his brother and seized the throne, he could not leave the infamy of the red stripes, how could the mood of his brother Murong Yichuan lying quietly in the coffin at this moment be complicated and clear.

According to the ancestral system, three days after the emperor's death, the new monarch would ascend the throne in front of the spirit, so as to deal with the affairs of the emperor as the new lord.

Now it is the third day of Emperor Tiande's death, Empress Dowager Xiao, King Fu, Princess Ziyan, the crown prince, all the little princes and princesses and Empress Xiao, harem concubines and royal clan dignitaries, Manchu Dynasty civil and military and so on all gathered in front of the spirit of Emperor Tiande in the main hall of the Requiem Pavilion, everyone has their own hearts, but their faces are not dignified, they know that now is the last calm before the storm.

Empress Dowager Xiao was dressed in white, and several palace maids slowly came to the center of the crowd with support, slowly sat down, and everyone else stood aside.

After a while, Empress Dowager Xiao muttered that according to the rules of the ancestors, today is the day when the new monarch ascends the throne, and the edict of Emperor Daxing has already been written and put in the Taiji Palace.

Beginning with Taizu Murong Xin, the emperors of all dynasties would write the edict and put it in the main hall of Taiji when they thought it was appropriate, and after his death, the Zongzheng Division and the prime minister and the general who ranked in the third duke went to fetch it together, and then the Zongzheng Division read the edict in front of the spirit.

The servants said in unison that they obeyed, and then walked out slowly.

At this time, the hall was very quiet, and the air seemed to freeze, and they were anxiously waiting for the edict to be taken.

About a cup of tea, Murong Cheng, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, and General Ximen returned to the hall, and the one who walked in the front was Murong Cheng, the chief of the sect, holding a golden box in his arms, with a solemn face and a steady pace, and Prime Minister Xiao Cheng and General Ximen followed behind one left and one right. Although Murong Cheng's official position is not as good as that of Prime Minister Xiao Suen, the general Ximen Donghai, he is the patriarch of the Murong clan, and his status can be seen.

Murong Cheng came with the golden box containing the edict in his arms, at least bowed deeply in front of the Empress Dowager Xiao, "Empress Dowager Qi, the minister has taken the edict of the former emperor." ”

Empress Dowager Xiao nodded solemnly, and said in a heavy tone, since this is the case, please ask the Sect Secretary to read the edict in public.

"Do what you want." Murong Cheng came to the center and solemnly opened the golden box slowly, but Murong Cheng's fingers kept trembling, and at this moment everyone's eyes were focused on Murong Cheng and the golden box he was holding.

Murong Cheng trembled his hands and finally opened the golden box, slowly took out the edict, and the eunuch took the box and hugged it aside, Murong Cheng slowly opened the edict with a solemn expression.

At this moment, everyone except for the Empress Dowager Xiao fell to their knees and listened to the edict.

Murong Cheng opened the edict, read it first, and after knowing the general content, he then spoke with a strict sù, and began to read out the edict in a high-pitched voice, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said; I knew that I was afraid of my life soon, and before I drove the crane west, I arranged the following things after my death. After I drove the crane to the west, according to the ancestral system, the crown prince Murong Zhiyuan should inherit the throne, and after some careful consideration, I decided that in order to support the design, I should choose a virtuous king, so the position of the crown prince of Murong Zhiyuan should be abolished, and the king of Shu, who had been assisted by me for many years, was overloaded with both civil and military affairs, and the extremely capable Fu King Murong Yichuan inherited the throne, and the prime minister Xiao Suen and the governor Xiao Kunpeng, the commander of the horse, Zhongli Wenjun, and the four ministers of the general Ximen Donghai assisted the new monarch together-"Before Murong Cheng finished reading the edict, the crowd suddenly broke off," The edict is fake. Murong Cheng's voice stopped abruptly, his hands trembled, and the edict almost landed, and everyone's eyes fell on that person, and it was not someone else who came out to stop drinking, it was the general Ximen Donghai.

I saw Ximen Donghai jump out of the crowd and step in front of Murong Cheng in a few steps, "Lord Zongzheng, this is a good edict, what is there to remember." As he spoke, he was about to reach out to grab the edict, but at this time, Empress Dowager Xiao broke off loudly, "Bold Ximen Donghai, do you want to have breakfast in front of Emperor Daxing?" On what basis do you say that this edict is false? ”

In the face of Empress Dowager Xiao's questioning, Ximen Donghai settled down, and said seriously, Empress Dowager Qi, if this edict is true, why didn't the emperor abolish the position of prince of His Royal Highness the prince before he died, I think this edict must have dropped the bag, Fuwang Chitose, do you say?

Ximen Donghai pointed the finger at Murong Yichuan, the blessed king.

At this moment, Murong Yichuan seemed unusually calm, because he had been prepared, so there was no trace of panic, "General Ximen has to pay attention to real evidence when he speaks, this king has assisted the former emperor for many years, but he has the ability to govern the country, and the reason why the former emperor did not abolish the position of Murong Zhiyuan Prince before was because he was afraid of causing unnecessary disputes between monarchs and ministers, this king and the former emperor both understood that the general was biased towards Murong Zhiyuan, if he abolished the position of Murong Zhiyuan Prince before, wouldn't it hurt the emperor and the general's monarchs and ministers, and Murong Zhiyuan was only a talent for not governing the country, But benevolence, righteousness and loyalty, if it is lightly abolished, it will shake the foundation, and now the emperor left an edict to the king to inherit the throne is a last resort, the country needs an independent political county lord, not a can't support Adou. Murong Yichuan didn't seem to be humble or arrogant, but there was a biting hatred in his eyes, which made Ximen Donghai feel that a biting cold wind was permeating.

Ximen Donghai was not frightened by King Fu's formation, but aroused his desire to fight more and more; The general heard that the emperor had been to the Taiji Palace before the emperor's death, and the little eunuch outside heard the sound of the emperor's uncle and the prince's quarrel, as well as the sound of sharp weapons smashing, and the emperor died a few hours later, don't you think there is something strange in this? For the sake of the Ximen family, for the crown prince himself, he must fight to the end, if he sits and waits to be killed, he will fall into the fate of me as a fish and a sword.

"Bold Ximen Donghai, you actually bewitched the people again and hindered the new monarch's accession to the throne, come on, give me this minister......" Murong Yichuan knew that it was a waste of time and energy to talk about it again when he met Ximen Donghai again, so it was better not to do it endlessly.

With Murong Yichuan's order, Shangguan Tianjue, who was waiting outside the palace, and the guards pretended to be many people from the rivers and lakes rushed up to take Ximen Donghai, "I see who dares to move, the front secretary of the palace will not take down Murong Yichuan, who is seeking power and usurping the throne." "Ximen Donghai also knows that now he can't come to Sven, and he must meet with swords, but fortunately, the front division of the palace is in his hands, and the commander of the front of the palace also brought a group of knights to pretend to be some money guards to ambush on the side of the Requiem Pavilion, just waiting for an order from Ximen Donghai in the palace.

Now Shangguan Tianjue's guard division and the palace front division in the west gate are fighting together, and gunsmoke is everywhere inside and outside the palace.

A bloody struggle officially began.
