Chapter II. 337

In fact, Li Lian's guess was not wrong at all, this holy decree in Yan Qinghong's hand was indeed a fake imitated by Li Deng himself! However, although this is a false decree, fakes are also graded. And Yan Qinghong said in his hand 'Fake Holy Decree', but it is 'the highest precision imitation'!

The handwriting on the holy decree is the mother copy carefully copied by Li Deng after the handwriting of the previous emperor last year; Just the fineness of this font, if you don't have thirty or fifty years of calligraphy, you can't see any clues at all. Moreover, the most convincing thing on this holy decree that shocked the queen mother naturally belonged to the jade seal!

Moreover, the reason why there is no fault in this great seal is not because of the ingenuity of the counterfeiter; It's because this jade seal is a real thing!

Of course, this 'true seal' does not refer to the one placed in the Zijin Palace of the Northern Yan, but the 'so-called genuine' that was imitated at the beginning of the establishment of the Youbei Third Road, according to the style of the jade seal of the Northern Yan Dynasty. However, with this jade seal stamped, no matter what is written on Yan Qinghong's yellow silk, it has full 'legal effect'.

However, according to the rules of the imperial court and the rules of the Yan clan: after the death of the first emperor, if the prince does not hold a succession ceremony for a day, then this jade seal will be stored in the queen for temporary safekeeping. And this heirloom jade seal, since the death of the first emperor, was immediately carefully kept by Li Lian.

In fact, Yan Qinghong's so-called will was originally not stamped with a big seal. Because in his opinion, this 'edict' was originally just a 'prop' to persuade the people of the world, and it was far better to have it than to be seen as fake...... However, this great seal, which he couldn't ask for, actually appeared on the imitated holy decree 'out of thin air' without realizing it.

Even up to this moment, even Yan Qinghong himself hasn't figured out what this is all about.

As soon as this decree appeared, it shook everyone present; Only Li Qing and Li Gonggong didn't even look at it, and they had already settled down in their hearts, this must be a fake! Because the first emperor Yan Hunt was waiting by his side every inch during the period from the onset of his illness to his death; At that time, Yan Hunt was in an emergency, and from the onset of the illness to his death, it was only half a day's work, and there was no time to leave any official testament on the situation in writing.

Moreover, when he personally saw this 'almost chaotic' edict, he was even more sure of what he thought in his heart. First of all, although the handwriting imitated by this copy can be called seamless, there are still several fatal flaws: first, Yan Zhan was bedridden at that time, and he was not able to pick up the pen himself, let alone write such a powerful handwriting; Secondly, the handwriting on this decree, if unfolded with both hands and viewed with a diagonal downward gaze, is indeed vivid. However, the handwriting imitated by the hands of others, even if the technique has been superb, as long as the imitation handwriting is parallel to your own line of sight, then it is easier to find the "greasy" of these fonts.

This method of testing authenticity is also very simple. Normal people write words, whether it is the angle of observation or the way they move the pen, there is a world of difference between them and those who copy and counterfeit. No matter how clever the means of counterfeiting, this difference is inevitable! The level of craftsmanship is nothing more than the difference between a fake at a glance and a 'almost chaotic real'.

As the saying goes, one mistake is wrong everywhere! At least in Li Qing's heart, no matter what words Yan Qinghong's so-called holy decree is written, it must be an edict!

Yan Qinghong held the 'Blood Wax Pill' in his hand, and then looked at Li Qing, who was pale on the ground and was desperately squeezing the wound, his expression changed several times, and finally took out the white cloth hidden in the wax pill......

Yan Qinghong glanced at it lightly, and after seeing the words clearly, he immediately put the white cloth on the torch and ignited it, and in an instant, it turned into a cloud of flying ash and dispersed with the wind......

"This ...... This is my Father...... Is this true? ”

Yan Qinghong changed his words several times, but finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, squatted on the ground, and asked Li Qing calmly.

"Hehe, the slave was just ordered by the first emperor to give this thing to the second prince Yan Qinghong; As for what is hidden in this wax pill, whether it is true or not, it is not something that a slave can speculate about in vain. However, as you can see, it is indeed the crude handwriting of a minion, and there is no stamp at the end...... So, according to the minion, whether that thing is real or fake, it has no effect at all except for you, the second prince......"

Yan Qinghong, who was already in control, couldn't help but burst into tears after listening to Li Qing's words......

In this life, he needs his father's love so much! Even in this form, he felt like he had received a treasure, and he could be regarded as having got what he wanted......

The cloth ball hidden in the wax pill is very straightforward in its choice of words! deposed the crown prince Yan Day's position as the prince, and he was never allowed to take half a step out of Dongkun Palace; He ordered Prime Minister Li Deng, Yan Chongwu, commander of the Flying Bear Army, and Yin Wei Anheng of Fengjing Prefecture to serve as the Minister of Youbei Auxiliary to jointly assist the new monarch Yan Qinghong in governing the country for a term of three years.

Just as Li Qing said, although the 'edict' written on this white cloth was extremely beneficial to himself, after all, it was written by Li Qing's pen, and it was not stamped with any seal; it looked as if Li Qing had written something casually, and he had added his identity as a 'great eunuch who had entrusted the orphans' to his own name, as if he had defected before the battle; for others, it was not at all convincing.

However, this thing is a powerful 'placebo' for Yan Qinghong, and it is this seemingly useless 'placebo' that makes Yan Qinghong completely firm up his belief in his heart.

"Queen Mother, my son has already presented the edict written by the first emperor, and you have personally checked the authenticity of the edict, can you open the south gate of the palace at this time and welcome me into the palace and return to the court?"

Li Lian had already fallen into a brief period of confusion; But now that I heard Yan Qinghong shouting, there was still a 'death without admitting it':

"Yan Qinghong, Yan Qinghong, could it be that you can replace the prince with just such a 'false edict full of mistakes and omissions'? Today, the mourning family will tell you plainly that even if I wait until the last soldier, I will never ......."

Just when Li Lian opened his mouth to express his attitude that he wanted to fight the 'rebels' to the death, the four closed palace gates suddenly made a few loud noises of 'gala', tearing open a big gap......

"Where is Yan Fujiu? There are rebels attacking the palace gate, and you still don't ......"

Li Lian heard the sound of the palace gate and immediately turned around, just wanted to order Yan Fujiu to lead the army to the palace gate and kill all the rebels; Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, she saw that on the south gate tower at this time, except for Yan Fujiu, the king of Qi in full armor, and a few henchmen and palace maids, there was no one else......

"The Empress Dowager... Since we are the people of Youbei, we should follow the edict of the first emperor......"

"The edict is fake! Could it be that you are all blind and stupid? Yan Qinghong is just a traitor who is trying to usurp the throne, and you ......"

Li Lian was only halfway through her rebuttal of Yan Fujiu's words, but she suddenly closed her mouth. Because, she found that these so-called neighbors who stayed on the city wall were all numb at this time, as if they didn't care about whatever she said...

How could a woman like Li Lian not be able to figure out the key?

Even if this so-called edict is just a random graffiti of a three-year-old child, these people will definitely regard it as the true work of the first emperor and respectfully 'do what he wants'! It turned out that the so-called 'edict' prepared by Yan Qinghong was not used to persuade himself at all......

This is just a 'letter of persuasion'!

Just when Li Lian looked at Yan Fujiu with a cold body, with a few loud bangs, the four suspension bridges that had been retracted fell to the ground again and were re-erected on the bank of the moat......

These four wide and stable suspension bridges lead directly to the Youbei Imperial Palace, where the city gate is open, and also to the dragon chair stained with countless blood; However, Yan Qinghong still didn't take a step forward, he just stood in front of the drawbridge, waiting for the mutinous Taibai guards in the city to bow down to him one by one......

"Yan Qinghong!"

"Queen Mother!"

The gorgeous phoenix crown on Li Lian's head had been casually thrown under the towering city wall at this time, and there were only two personal palace maids left by her side, and even Yan Fujiu, the commander of the Taibai Guard with neat armor, disappeared without a trace at this moment.

"Do you think you've won a big game? Do you think that if you sit on that dragon chair, Youbei Third Road will be safe and secure? Hahahaha, this Youbei Third Road is a strong big cage, and this palace is a cage within a cage! The mourning family originally thought that a wise and foolish child like you would definitely choose the most comfortable way to live; But I didn't expect you to ...... today You've been hiding for more than 20 years, why did you turn around and go back to where you started......"

"After returning to his mother, no matter what he did for many years, it was just a means to protect himself; In the past, the prodigal wreckage was for self-preservation; Today's soldiers are coming to the city to protect themselves......"

Yan Qinghong looked at Li Lian, who looked crazy, and was still trying his best to defend himself; Unexpectedly, Li Lian didn't seem to hear what he said at all, and was still talking to himself:

"Now that you have mustered up the courage to sit on that dragon chair, then the mourning family will also lay a final test for you..."

As soon as the words fell, Li Lian stabbed the sword in his hand into the vermilion lacquer pillar behind him; Immediately, she pulled her backhand, and the wide phoenix robe flew in the wind, floated across the moat, and was blown north......

Immediately afterwards, Li Lian stepped on the archery battlement of the city wall, and then without hesitation, he opened his arms and stepped forward to 'fly'......

"The rebel son Yan Qinghong plotted for the throne, led the rebels to besiege the imperial city, and forced the queen Li Lian to death, and the people and gods were indignant......"

'Bang! ’

Before Li Lian's 'last words' could be finished, her head hit the ground and she drew a scroll of 'Treading Snow and Seeking Plum Blossoms'......
