Those neutral courtiers looked at the current situation, didn't know what to do, and couldn't help but look at Wang Chengzhi, who had not spoken, although he was the Liu family's fast son-in-law, but they had already seen the situation over the years, this Lord Wang and the Liu family, it was not a family with one heart, although Wang Chengzhi was the former prince's person, but now he is loyal to His Majesty.

Wang Chengzhi glanced at Liu Hongye, who was confident, knelt down and said to Xie Yun in a deep voice: "Weichen is willing to listen to His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Even he knelt down, and the courtiers who were still watching also knelt down one after another, and said, "Please let His Majesty the Emperor decide." ”

Xie Yun said in a deep voice: "Okay, since you all agree, then this matter is decided." ”

As he spoke, under the gaze of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, he wrote down the edict of canonizing the crown prince in his own hand, and handed it to Shang Jing, who was in the Hou Dynasty, and said, "Read it to them." ”

Shang Jing took it respectfully, opened it and said loudly to the courtiers in the hall: "The weight of the second prince, the style is solid, and once there is a good yuan, it is true to all countries." Yongzhou Mu Yongwang Xie Heng, the quality of the instrument is far away, the wind is bright, the ambition is long, and the beauty industry is growing. Both inside and outside, the Yi chapter is described, the far-reaching will, the government and the opposition are forward-looking, it is advisable to take the Dingye, and allow the guard. He can be made the crown prince. The priest has a courtesy, and the time is ordained. ”

After Shang Jing finished reading, there was silence above the main hall, and the courtiers who didn't know what to do looked at Liu Hongye with a blue face, Liu Hongye looked at Xie Yun, his expression was gloomy, and the roots of his teeth were almost biting blood, he slowly stood up, looked at Xie Yun and said in a deep voice: "Is His Majesty the Emperor sure that he has not made the wrong person?" ”

Xie Yun looked at him fearlessly, and said indifferently: "King Yong is over seven years old, smart and studious, and not long ago he participated in the control of floods, and he has a lot of prestige among the people, making him the crown prince is of course the best choice!" ”

Liu Hongye looked at him and sneered: "But now that His Royal Highness King Yong is missing, how can His Majesty the Emperor Taishang canonize him as the crown prince?" “

"Who said that this king is missing?" A crisp child's voice resounded through the hall, and Zhou Jin took Xie Heng and slowly walked into the Xuanzheng Palace!

He was obviously only seven years old, but there was a majesty in his expression that people didn't dare to look at directly, Zhou Jin let go of him, Xie Heng walked to Xie Yun step by step, and his small body faced Liu Hongye and said majestically: "Liu Xiang rebelled against the emperor and put this king under house arrest in the palace, declared that this king was missing, disturbed the court, and tried in vain to set up a child of unknown origin as the crown prince, which is like complicity, what else does Liu Xiang have to say now?" ”

Liu Hongye looked at him in disbelief, Xie Heng, who was now calm and calm, and the boy who was crying in front of him before were like two people, and those who put Xie Heng under house arrest were obviously his own people, how could he come out?

Xie Heng's words made the faces of the courtiers in the hall change dramatically, they all looked at Liu Hongye in unison, and Wang Ningde, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, spoke: "His Royal Highness King Yong has to talk about evidence, the second prince is the son of His Majesty and Liu Guifei, how did it become of unknown origin?" ”

"It's not that the origin is unknown, it's my son, it's the son of me and Xu Meiren!" Xie Yun, who had never spoken, suddenly spoke!

The ministers looked at each other, their faces full of shock, Liu Hongye looked at Xie Yun, and said in a deep voice: "His Majesty the Emperor Taishang is really well-intentioned for His Majesty, in order to let King Yong become the crown prince without objection, he even dares to say such things, who in the palace does not know, the child born by Xu Mei is a stillborn!" ”

Xie Yun smiled faintly and said: "Why is it a stillborn child, you and I know it well, I also want to ask Liu Xiang, Liu Guifei is still a boudoir now, how can she give birth to a son!" ”

Liu Hongye's face changed suddenly, and he said sharply: "Impossible, how can Jiang Yue still be a virgin!" ”

Xie Yun clapped his hands, Imperial Physician Xiao and an old palace maid walked into the hall, Imperial Physician Xiao shook his body and said that Liu Jiangyue was pregnant, and the old palace maid kowtowed: "Today, the slave maid has examined the concubine Niangniang according to the instructions of His Majesty the Emperor, and she is indeed still perfect!" ”

"Liu Xiang still has something to say now!" Xie Yun asked in a deep voice!

Liu Hongye's face was blue for a while and purple for a while, he looked at Xie Heng and Xie Yun, and said with a smile: "Xie Yun, do you really think that I believe in you so much and put all the bets on you?" I'm afraid you don't know yet, I have already secretly transferred the army from Jiangnan into Beijing, just to prevent you from coming, if the prince is not the second prince, not the Liu family, they will immediately attack the capital, and none of you will be able to escape at that time. “

"Oh, what Liu Xiang said was the men and horses brought by General Xu, but unfortunately, he was ambushed by my army before he could enter Tongguan." Xie Ronghua's voice suddenly sounded in the main hall, everyone was shocked, and the courtiers looked at the handsome man in golden armor outside the Xuanzheng Hall who slowly entered, knelt down and said loudly: "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." ”

Dewey, who was following behind Xie Ronghua, was carrying a person's head, and the blood stained the hall red, and Liu Hongye's henchmen and ministers recognized him at once, it was Xu Yong, Liu Hongye's confidant general who led the army in Jiangnan.

Xie Ronghua asked Dewey to give Liu Hongye the head, and said, "Liu Xiangke still likes this gift?" ”

Liu Hongye's face turned pale, looked at the human head rolling off the ground, and muttered, "You have always been acting?" ”

Xie Ronghua nodded and said with a smile: "In order to deceive Liu Xiang, I can't even take care of Heng'er." “

His words made Liu Hongye understand, why did Xie Yun keep Xie Heng's life, their father, son and grandson had already colluded, but they each acted in front of him and led him into the game, in vain he thought that everything was under his control, but it turned out that Xie Ronghua had already set up a bureau to wait for him, and Liu Jiangyue's fake pregnancy was not his biggest trick?

He looked at Xie Ronghua with a calm face, and said coldly: "Your Majesty has good means, today's matter, the old minister is willing to gamble and lose, but the old minister doesn't understand, His Majesty wants to deal with the old minister, why bother so much." “

Xie Ronghua looked at him and muttered: "I am not the emperor of the previous dynasty, if I convict Liu Xiang casually, then I am afraid that everyone in the world will avenge Liu Xiang, and then Liu Xiang's henchmen in Jiangnan may want to seek revenge on me. “

Liu Hongye sneered: "Therefore, Your Majesty seduced the old minister step by step, let the old minister think that the victory was in his hands, and for the sake of big things, he transferred his henchmen away from the familiar Jiangnan to Beijing, so that His Majesty could catch the turtle in the urn and easily destroy the old minister's biggest reliance." ”

Xie Ronghua smiled lightly: "It's good to deal with a smart person like Liu Xiang." ”

"The old minister is not as smart as His Majesty, but Your Majesty, don't be too happy, with Gu Zhaoyi to accompany the funeral of the entire Liu family, even if the old minister is dead, it will be considered a cushion." Liu Hongye laughed.

Xie Ronghua's face sank, and he said angrily: "What do you mean? ”

"Your Majesty is so smart, can't you guess what the old minister means? Lao Chen This is the crime of rebellion, according to the law, the nine clans should be punished, and the old minister is not even afraid of the crime of rebellion, so why be afraid of adding another crime! Liu Hongye laughed sarcastically!
