238. 239 - The Emperor dies
In the court, everyone has hidden secret schemes, and they are afraid that they will follow the wrong master, and they will be suppressed when others take the throne in the future.
Most people still chose Mu Xiaoyu, after all, far water can't save near fire.
In the twenty-ninth year of the Northern Dynasty, it had been a year and a half since the emperor's illness began. On the sixth day of the fourth month, the emperor felt much better, so he went out for a walk. The next day, he summoned the ministers to him and explained some of the things that had happened during this time, but before he could say much, the emperor suddenly put his hands on his chest and frowned. Concubine Xiao Shufei immediately announced that the imperial doctor would come over, but after the imperial doctor took the pulse of the emperor, he just shook his head.
Concubine Xiao looked at the imperial doctor in disbelief and said, "How can this be, didn't it start to get better yesterday?" What's going on today. Quacks, all quacks! ”
The imperial doctors knelt down one after another, and the imperial doctors led by them said: "Niangniang forgive the sin, the emperor improved yesterday, and everything is just a phenomenon of returning to the light." ”
As soon as the imperial doctor's words fell, Concubine Xiao seemed to have lost her mind, and kept repeating those four words in her mouth, returning to the light. It turns out that everything is just a flashback. It turns out that the improvement is not because you can recover, not because you can always be by your side, but because you have to leave, and the temporary improvement is just because you are preparing for the imminent goodbye.
The emperor slowly opened his eyes and opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything when he opened his lips. Finally, he could only raise his hand with great difficulty and point to the wall in front of him.
His personal eunuch walked to the edge of the wall, to the place where the emperor was pointing. The eunuch's hand was on the wall and he looked at the emperor, who shook his head in a hurry. The eunuch moved his hand to the left, and then to the left, until his hand touched a fresco, and the emperor did not shake his head.
The eunuch moved the mural, and suddenly saw a small hole behind the mural, and he removed the mural and took something out of it, which was a holy decree. The ministers looked at the scroll of the holy decree and seemed to understand something in their hearts. The eunuch turned his head to look at the emperor, who didn't react this time, just slowly closed his eyes and his hand fell suddenly.
For a while, the hall was noisy.
The imperial physician stepped forward, checked the emperor's pulse, and probed his nose again, then knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you have died."
In the twenty-ninth year of the Northern Dynasty, on the seventh day of the fourth month, the emperor died, and the whole country mourned. The emperor reigned for twenty-nine years, and the country prospered. In the mouths of the people, the name of the Holy Monarch is widely spread.
When Lian Ziyan heard the news, he was really finished. Now that the emperor is dead, if Mu Xiaoyu is allowed to succeed to the throne, he will not be able to think about it in his life. Even if Mu Xiaoyan didn't come to him for trouble, he would be unwilling to lose to Mu Xiaoyan.
After the emperor's funeral, the eunuch read out the contents of the decree after the mural.
"Carried by heaven, the will of the first emperor." The eunuch paused slightly as he read this, his eyes slightly red. After a while, he continued: "The current emperor is located in Mu Xiaoyu, the king of Qing'an, and from then on, the Tianyou Dynasty will be handed over to him, and the ministers must not have any objections. For Lian Ziyan, he can only spend his life in the temple, and no matter who he is, he can't explicitly let him come out. ”
Lian Ziyan almost collapsed after hearing the news, and sure enough, he was still defeated in the hands of Mu Xiaoyan. Sure enough, the emperor still favored Mu Xiaoyu after all.
