The ministers were even more uneasy, and they all came out and knelt on the ground, "Niangniang, prince, what happened?" ”

His Majesty's personal eunuch, Gonggong An shook the dust in his hand, and before he could say anything, he grinned and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty has passed away!" ”

In the Jinluan Palace, the cry suddenly shook the sky, and the civil and military officials were heartbroken.

After a long time, Queen Su wiped her red eyes with a handkerchief, beckoned King Yiyang, and the mother and son looked at each other and sobbed, "Your Majesty's illness, this palace is looking for doctors all over the world, but they are helpless, and now the Quartet is eyeing each other, the world is undecided, but His Majesty has passed away, leaving us orphans and widows, as well as this Southern Jin Dynasty, what should I do?" ”

The ministers looked at each other, and one stepped forward, "Niangniang, let's let the prince come back to inherit the unification, stabilize the court, stabilize the people's hearts, and avoid trouble." ”

Empress Su took a deep breath and held back her tears, "A month ago, Your Majesty was sick, and the palace sent someone to the border to invite the prince back to Beijing............ Hongu ......"

The queen was grief-stricken and couldn't cry again, Qin Yuan was busy wiping her eyes with a handkerchief, and the mother and son were teary-eyed.

Prime Minister Du Yanheng stepped forward, "Niangniang, the country can't be without a king for a day, you still have to plan as soon as possible." ”

Empress Su seemed to be six gods and no master, "Zhong Aiqing said what to do?" ”

Prime Minister, Taishi, Taifu, Taibao, Taiwei, these first-class members of the court, discussed and discussed countermeasures, and everyone knew what to do, but they were just waiting for one person to come forward.

In the end, it was Prime Minister Du Cheng who knelt down solemnly, "Niangniang, now that Your Majesty has returned to heaven, the whereabouts of the crown prince are unknown, in order to ensure the stability of the Southern Jin Dynasty, it is still necessary to immediately elect the heir to the throne." ”

"When His Majesty was here, he praised Yiyang Wang Wentao Wuluo many times, and his insight was no less than that of the prince, but now the prince is not ......" He didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was very obvious.

At this time, a small eunuch came in a hurry, saying that before His Majesty collapsed, he found an unfinished note, and when everyone looked at it, they saw that the handwriting on it was indeed His Majesty's, and it was written that "Chuan is located in Yi ......" may be physically exhausted, and the back was not finished, leaving only a long ink blot.

"This is not only what everyone expects, but also the meaning of the emperor, Niangniang quickly make a decree, abolish the old and establish the new." Prime Minister Du Cheng raised his arms and shouted, and the other ministers also followed.

There are also some ministers in the DPRK and China who have quite a few criticisms, but they can only protect themselves wisely, but there are always people who come forward.

"The queen can't, the prince is the foundation of the country, how can he easily say nothing, now his whereabouts are unknown, the minister thinks that the top priority is to send someone to find, besides, the prince knows people well, benevolent and thrifty, the emperor has always appreciated it, how can he abolish the old and establish a new ......" said the old minister in the court, Lord Wang.

"Then you're saying that the words in this royal pen book are fake?" The prime minister was fierce and sincere, "They are all the heirs of Niangniang, Niangniang will not favor one over the other, now for the stability of the world, as a last resort, whoever says more, pull out the cane and kill, Niangniang, you don't hesitate anymore." ”

Queen Su hesitated for a moment, looked at the eager eyes of the ministers, and finally had no choice but to grit her teeth, took the red pen that had been prepared, and dipped it in ink.

Then I saw Yuan Shuo's father and son and Qin Man, the county lord of the current dynasty, waiting for the battle, and walked in with their heads held high.

Empress Su was also taken aback, the pen and ink dripped on the rice paper, and instantly blurred, glanced at Qin Yuan, and slowly regained her majesty.

"General Yuan, you are stationed on the frontier, you are not summoned, and you return to Beijing without permission, what crime should you be guilty of?"

Yesterday, someone came to report, saying that Yuan Shuo had returned to Beijing, she sent someone to investigate, and the person who came back reported that Yuan Shuo's mother was seriously ill, and he went home to visit his mother, only bringing a few entourages, and no suspicious people accompanied him.

Yuan Shuo's eyebrows were solemn and Ling Ran, neither humble nor arrogant, "My dynasty has always been in the past, up to the holy, down to the people of Li have always put filial piety first, and their parents are slightly ill, and the courtiers can visit first, and then play." ”

Empress Su's hand in her sleeve tightened slightly, and she sneered, "Even so, but you don't serve the old lady at home, what are you doing in the court?" ”

Yuan Shuo's eyes were like electricity, and there was a hint of coolness in his majesty, and he bowed down, "Niangniang, with just a mutilated inkblot, it is easier for the Southern Jin Dynasty to change the strings, it is too hasty, and it is difficult to convince the public, and the minister is the first to disagree." ”

Originally, there were opposing voices in the DPRK and China, but they were afraid of the forces of the three major Zhengyi products and the prime minister, so they did not dare to speak.

General Yuan's father is the founding minister, a generation higher than the emperor, the emperor saw him to salute, many civil and military officials in the court are his protégés, General Yuan for the Southern Jin Dynasty and the south to fight in the north, deterring the Quartet, so that the Hu people do not dare to go south, as soon as he said this, many ministers who support the prince have also echoed their words.

Suddenly, the princelings led by Yuan Shuo and the Yiyang Wang party led by Du Yanheng quarreled endlessly.

The queen wrinkled her eyebrows slightly, how could the guards in front of the Jinluan Palace put Yuan Shuo's father and son in, she couldn't help but glance at Yuan Che, this pair of father and son is the biggest stumbling block, and it must not be left behind.

Gonggong An used a sharp voice, "Quiet and quiet!" ”

The quarrel gradually stopped, Yuan Shuo chuckled lightly, and looked at the county lord Qin Man beside him, "The county lord has something for everyone to see." ”

Qin Man held the brocade box in his hand, glanced around, and sneered, "You dare to let the world change hands with a piece of paper, I don't know if my edict with the jade seal of the imperial grandfather can ensure that my imperial uncle inherits the orthodoxy." ”

As she spoke, she shook out a silk brocade from it, the imperial seal stamped by the emperor, shining in everyone's eyes.

Some people in the court were happy and some were worried, Queen Su's lips trembled slightly, looking at Qin Man, she had made a lot of calculations, and she was negligent, how could she have neglected this crazy girl.

Qin Man glanced at General Yuan before he spoke, "The imperial grandfather is seriously ill, I am very worried, but the palace maid and eunuch did not let me visit, that day I took advantage of the palace maid's nap and slipped in through the window, the imperial grandfather wrote this edict himself, and asked me to bring a few words to the ministers, and said that if he is not good, he will not mourn secretly, and wait for the prince to return!" ”

"But what if the prince doesn't return?" The prime minister's eyes were like cold stars, glaring at Qin Man.

"Is the prime minister looking forward to the palace not returning?"

Everyone was stunned for a while, and at the same time looked outside the hall, only to see a young man with a long body, a restrained spirit, and a radiant face.

Mo Hongqing was dressed in a black brocade robe, his black hair was tied up and fixed with a gilt crown, and he was handsome and full of innate kingly spirit.

When he walked in slowly, his footsteps lifted the corners of his robe, as if he was coming by the wind, his expression was majestic, awe-inspiring and upright, making people unattainable, and then sinking into the dust.

Just when the court was stunned, King Yiyang was the first to react, he stepped forward quickly, knelt on the ground respectfully, and said sincerely, "Welcome the new emperor back to the court, the imperial brother can be counted as back, the courtier brother is looking forward to it day and night, and finally looking forward to you back." ”

Mo Hongqing narrowed his eyes slightly, only to hear King Yiyang continue, "The younger brother is ashamed, the father is seriously ill, the imperial brother has not returned, the major events in the court, the younger brother has to take care of it temporarily, but every day is terrified, now that the imperial brother is back, the younger brother is determined to die, so as to remove the doubts of the imperial brother." ”

After speaking, Qin Yuan reached out and pulled out the long sword on the waist of the guard next to him, but was blocked by a military general raising his sword, so as to avoid the end of self-killing.

Queen Su was stunned, how could this be possible, Su Huang sent a message back before, so that he could not act rashly, but later, he sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that the prince had fallen into the abyss, and his bones were gone, he was a human or a ghost, how could he come back.

But she can live in the cannibalistic palace for more than 20 years, and sit in the position of the queen, she is not an uninformed person, and she will stabilize in a moment.

At this time, I saw Queen Su in tears, did not let the eunuch support her, walked down in a panic, stepped forward to hold Mo Hongqing's hands, and staged a human tragedy of separation and reunion.

"Emperor, you can be counted as back, these days the queen mother's heart is tormented, your father died, I am a woman, Zhang Huang is at a loss, he has no idea for a while, I just want to protect my Southern Jin Dynasty, live up to the efforts of the previous emperors, this is also your father's message last night, now it's good, you are back, you have to be dissatisfied, don't blame Yuan'er, send the queen mother to the cold palace, if it is not for the fear that you will bear the name of unfilial piety, the queen mother will apologize with death."

Mo Hongqing squinted his eyes, the mother and son really cooperated, acted in a wonderful bitter and warm love scene, and threw the pot to the emperor, anyway, he has passed away, and he will not get up to reason with her.

If he wants to win the hearts of the people, if he wants to sit in the supreme position smoothly today, and create the image of Renjun, today's court affairs must be properly handled, he exhaled deeply, and then looked at Queen Su. “
