Soon two days passed, and the time came to the first day of the ninth month of the twenty-sixth year of Yongzhi.

In the past two days, a lot of things have happened inside and outside the palace, the most important thing is to purge King Wu's comrades.

Because the structure of Jinyiwei is complete, Chen Xiaoting is in charge of this, which shows that Zhu Xiuyin trusts him.

The dragon body of the Daxing Emperor in the Jade Void Palace Essence House was transferred to the main hall of the Jade Void Palace after the convergence was completed under the busyness of the little eunuchs, and the dragon coffin of the mourning hall would be placed here.

In the main hall, Zhu Xiuyin knelt in front of the emperor's spirit, and at this time he changed into a white filial piety robe.

Behind him were the concubines and princesses in the palace, as well as the people of the clan who had been summoned.

Although these people are called imperial princes, because Zhu Yujun likes to cultivate, he has never seen the emperor a few times in his life, and it is difficult to have any feelings for the emperor.

At this moment, the two auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, with six Shangshu, knelt in front of Zhu Xiuyin again.

At this moment, they were supposed to be guarding the emperor's spirit outside the main hall.

Crying for the emperor and keeping a vigil is a matter of etiquette, and if this huge court wants to operate, it is natural to have to do practical things.

And the biggest fact in front of us is that the country cannot be without a king for a day.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and please ask His Royal Highness to succeed to the throne in front of the emperor's spirit, so that the future can be stable and the ambition of the dynasty can be at ease!" Qin Yanwen knelt in front of Zhu Xiuyin and said earnestly.

Immediately afterwards, Huang Yucheng on the side also kowtowed and said: "What Qin Ge Lao said is extremely true, there are thousands of affairs in the court, if His Royal Highness pushes back again, how to face the trust of Emperor Daxing, and how to be worthy of the ancestors of the country?" ”

This is the third time in two days that the ministers have persuaded Zhu Xiuyin to succeed to the throne.

According to the usual practice, the drama of three persuasions and three resignations has been fully played, and Zhu Xiuyin should not refrain at this time.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, for the livelihood of the world, Kyushu Li Shu, please ask His Royal Highness to succeed to the emperor's throne!"

"Please Your Highness succeed to the throne!"

At this time, Chen Xiaoting came in from outside the hall to report the situation to Zhu Xiuyin, and when he saw this situation, he also knelt down with the ministers.

For the position of emperor, Zhu Xiuyin is actually too hot, but at this moment he still has to pretend to be embarrassed.

In the end, the surface work was almost done, and Zhu Xiuyin said with a helpless look: "That's the case...... Your Highness, just follow the invitation of the Emperor! ”

Zhu Xiuyin's words fell, and Chen Xiaoting immediately saw the opportunity and shouted: "Weichen knocks on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

With his shouting, everyone in the hall knelt down to worship the new emperor, and Zhu Xiuyin looked at Chen Xiaoting with great satisfaction.

Immediately, Zhu Xiuyin was going to go to the gate of the Yuxu Palace to accept the worship of the ministers, and before that, he had to draft an edict to succeed to the throne.

These things have been prepared by the civil officials for a long time, but to everyone's surprise, the emperor gave Chen Xiaoting the opportunity to read the edict of succession.

This made Huang Ting, who was also in the palace, half angry, but since it was the emperor's order, he didn't dare to say more than half a word.

Chen Xiaoting felt very troubled by this hot work, he really didn't want to offend Huang Ting, but he had to follow the emperor's will.

This is the routine operation of the emperor, and only by pitting the people below against each other can the emperor's authority be transcendent.

Taking over the holy decree from Qin Yanwen, Chen Xiaoting carefully followed behind Zhu Xiuyin.

Outside the gate of the Yuxu Palace, hundreds of officials were already waiting here, and they had come to witness the succession of the new emperor.

After the emperor's funeral is completed, the official enthronement ceremony will be held.

On the imperial steps outside the Yuxu Palace, Zhu Xiuyin, with the support of Huang Ting, slowly ascended to the throne, and the hundred officials below were in full view.

"The emperor has a decree ......" Chen Xiaoting spread out the edict, this was the first time he read this thing.

"Wait for the order!" All the officials knelt down and waited for the decree to be announced.

After taking a deep breath, Chen Xiaoting read aloud: "The first emperor suddenly collapsed and returned to the Five Elements ......"

"I obey the last order of Emperor Daxing, belong to the order of Lun, and enter the ...... of Zongao"

"The civil and military ministers inside and outside the country and the elderly soldiers and civilians are persuaded to advance, as for the repeated ......"

Reading this, Chen Xiaoting raised his head and glanced at the ministers below, and said in an even more high-pitched tone: "I refuse to reject, and I would like to tell heaven and earth at this time, that is, the emperor's throne!" ”

"Chin this!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

The ministers shouted a total of three times, and the sound was wave after wave.

On the throne, Zhu Xiuyin is very satisfied at the moment, he has been cautious for more than 20 years, and he has finally come to this point.

After suppressing the surging in his heart, Zhu Xiuyin said: "Zhongqing is flat!" ”

After everyone got up, he continued: "Emperor Daxing is mourning, I am sad and indignant and can't help myself, the court affairs are all due to the efforts of the Zhuqing, I have thanked the Zhuqing for being present!" ”

"At the beginning of the new dynasty, all affairs will be carried out according to the old system......"

Zhu Xiuyin said a lot next, but the main idea is very simple, that is, tell the big guys not to think nonsense, just do things honestly.

At this time, the people of the government and the opposition were panicking, and they needed Zhu Xiuyin's words to calm people's hearts.

So after he finished speaking, the hearts of the ministers really fell into their stomachs, and they became more and more relieved when they bowed to the emperor.

The simple succession ceremony was soon over, and the emperor immediately left the palace gate and entered the palace to continue to keep his father's spirit.

The ministers returned to their respective positions and were busy with various affairs in the yamen, and the imperial court could not stop running for a day.

At this moment, Chen Xiaoting followed Zhu Xiuyin's side and was reporting to the emperor on the work completed today.

After he finished speaking, Zhu Xiuyin said: "The errand is good, you have worked hard in the past two days, go back and rest!" ”

Chen Xiaoting's heart tightened, and when he glanced to the side, he saw Huang Ting's cold expression, so he hurriedly said: "Thank you for the emperor's concern, Weichen obeys the order!" ”

Then he stopped, bowed down and stood in place, watching Zhu Xiuyin and his party leave.

After the emperor left, Chen Xiaoting stood up straight, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

Since the emperor let him go back, then go back himself...... Chen Xiaoting thought so.

Then he turned around and walked slowly out of the palace.

Out of the main gate of the palace, Chen Xiaoting turned over on the horse's back and went home directly.

It stands to reason that he should go back to the yamen at this time to hand over, but since the emperor asked him to go back to rest, he also went directly to the mansion.

In fact, he didn't go home for the past two days, but just asked his subordinates to send his family back to Fuzhong.

When he appeared outside the house again, Chen Xiaoting had a feeling that he had not seen for a long time.

"The master is back!"

The door of the mansion opened, and Chen Xiaoting stepped in, and at this moment he only felt a wave of fatigue welling up in his heart.

In the past few days of hard work, he has not rested for a moment, and at this moment he has returned to the safe haven of home, and fatigue naturally hits under relaxation.

After being notified in the house, Shen Yi was the first to come out, and she has been in a panic for the past few days.

"Master, you're back!"

Seeing that her husband's eyes were full of blood and his expression was full of fatigue, Shen Yi felt distressed.

"Madame, I'm tired!" Chen Xiaoting stopped and said.

Although there were too many things to say, Shen Yi still held back all of them, and at this moment, it was naturally important for her husband to rest.

"Husband, the concubine will help you in!" Shen Yi grabbed Chen Xiaoting's right arm.

At this moment, Zheng Xuan'er and Xu Youhui also rushed out, and they also came forward to help when they saw this situation.
