Chapter 84: Emperor Yun dies
The crown prince, in addition to having a strong demand for the elected himself, however, has a strong demand for the back behind him. Jing, especially the mother's side, has strict requirements!
So......
Even if the four princes themselves passed the test and could successfully enter the next prince of Cangyun Kingdom, they were also unconvinced because of the disparity in the identities of the four princes and concubines.
Even if he becomes the king of a country in the future, there will not be a few people who oppose it in the DPRK and China! ”
"What Aiqing said is not unreasonable." Emperor Yun pondered what she had just said. "That'...... What about the old seven and eight? ”
"The mother of the seventh prince is the cousin of the military department, and the eighth prince's maiden family is the previous dynasty who followed the emperor to fight in the south and the north, and was named the sister of the general of Dingyuan after his death. The scenery is impeccable, but ...... The seventh prince is disabled, and the eighth prince is lazy, in this Cangyun Kingdom Jin City, it has long been a well-known thing.
The Seven Princes are on the throne, and the Four International Conferences will inevitably become a laughing stock among the other three countries, which will damage the face of Cangyun Kingdom.
And Jiangshan Sheji, the most afraid of slackness and laziness, if the eighth prince ascends the throne, I am afraid that whether Cangyun Kingdom can be kept between the four countries in the future is also a difficult thing to grasp! ”
Ji Yunxiao doesn't know discrimination and prejudice, but that's the case, the reality is in front of her, and she can't help but be picky!
Emperor Yun smiled and continued......
Father-in-law Changle raised his spirits and waited outside, only occasionally he could hear one or two sounds coming from inside, the emperor's laughter.
The laughter was hearty, dispelling the haze of the past few days, as if it was really relieved and smiling.
When Changle's father-in-law heard this, his old face was vicissitudes, and he also cracked his mouth.
The emperor smiled, it's good to laugh, it's good to laugh......
Thinking to himself, he couldn't help it, and wiped his tears excitedly.
The imperial doctors and maids in the court were all driven out, but the lights inside were left on all night.
And those who had been paying attention to the movements of the court hall also got the news in a short time.
The emperor hasn't seen anyone for a long time, but he announced it on the day the national teacher returned home!
As soon as you see it, it's a whole night!
Or drove all the imperial doctors and palace maids out of the room, and as soon as he saw this posture, he knew that the conversation between the emperor and the national teacher must be very close!
It's like deliberately hiding it from people!
Therefore, for a while, those who were still lurking in the shadows suddenly became a little restless.
I am afraid that my previous opportunity will become a flower in the mirror because of the sudden return of this national teacher, and all my efforts will be put into a phantom!
Therefore, when the sky was just dawning, several subordinates gathered in front of the palace gate, and these people were the closest and most trusted people under the princes in the palace!
And those people, who came over so early and gathered in front of the gate of the palace, the purpose of which is self-evident!
There were a lot of open and secret battles between the princes, and the subordinates who were waiting in front of the palace also began to fight each other, and they couldn't help but ridicule each other, each for its own master!
It's just that just when they were arguing, four bells suddenly rang in the court!
The voice, three long and one short......
Let these people who are still chattering and arguing suddenly shocked in place!
After listening to the bell, they looked at each other, and saw a wave of surprise and disbelief on each other's faces!
East Palace......
Nanjin slept badly last night and woke up before dawn.
got up early, and according to the habit of the past, I went to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to copy the Wanfu Lu.
It's just that the more he copied, the more uneasy he became, and he became inexplicably impetuous!
Suddenly, a bell rang outside the Scripture Pavilion to disrupt his train of thought!
Nan Jin's hand panicked, and the pen broke straight from the palm of his hand!
With a "snap", a large cloud of ink fell on the paper, destroying all the scriptures he had just copied.
It's just that he was unconscious, stood up suddenly, and shouted: "Lin Yan! ”
"Your Highness!" Lin Yan, who was waiting outside the Scripture Pavilion, listened to the shouts of the prince inside, and did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly pushed the door and walked in.
"What's going on out there?" Nan Jin's heart tightened, "The palace heard four bells just now, is it that which one of the palace dares to make a move in the palace?!" ”
Lin Yan's face darkened in vain, and he opened his eyes, as if he didn't dare to look directly at Nan Jin: "Your Highness, is it...... The emperor died. ”
"What?!" Nan Jin's eyes were dizzy when she heard the sound, as if she couldn't stand up, and the whole person fell down on the chair behind her.
"Your Highness? Your Highness! ......" Lin Yan walked over worriedly, and called several times in a row before he brought the person back to his senses.
When Nan Jin first came back to his senses, his face was a little frighteningly pale, and then he seemed to have found his senses at this time, and immediately reacted: "Go!" Go to the court! ”
Nan Hibiscus walked in a hurry, and the straps of her clothes accidentally hung on the inkstone on the low table.
The ink spilled over the ground and spread down his white robes, instantly blackening most of his side.
"Your Highness, your robe, Your Highness...... You ......" Lin Yan followed closely behind him, wanting to remind, but Nan Jin walked too fast and couldn't catch up with him at all!
Nanjin hurried all the way, and simply shortened the time from the Scripture Pavilion to the court hall to one quarter!
When he ran to the court hall in a hurry, the white cloth and white lanterns hanging high in front of him made his whole person feel like thunder, and he was stunned in place all of a sudden!
He just stared blankly, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long, long time!
Seeing this, Lin Yan couldn't help but step forward and urge, "His Royal Highness the Prince, go in?" ”
Nanjin came back to her senses in a trance and looked at the door of the court.
In the past month, he has been thinking about the people here, and he has been looking forward to being announced, that is, he wants to go in to visit his father's physical condition.
However, now, he looked at the door of the mansion with a white lantern hanging high, and it seemed that a thousand catties were bound under his feet.
He moved his steps, but every step was faltering and difficult!
In a short distance, he was forced to go by the old elder for a long time.
Nanjin came relatively late.
When he walked into the house, it had already been arranged into a mourning hall, the vermilion nanmu coffin was placed in the center, white gauze several feet high was hung on all sides, and some incense tables were set up in front of the coffin, and the two candles on both sides of the incense case were burning continuously.
The surroundings are full of princes and concubines in the palace.
The sound of the women crying came from the side of the coffin, adding a bit of sadness to the desolate scene in front of them.
As soon as Nan Jin came in, almost everyone's eyes were focused on him.
But he didn't see it, staring straight at the vermilion nanmu coffin in the center.
Step by step, he walked over there.
The coffin had not yet been covered, and Nan Hibiscus took a closer look, and couldn't help but shake up and down.
As soon as Emperor Yun declared his imperial color, the decoration was extremely exquisite, and he lay in it peacefully.
His sunken eyes were tightly closed, and there was a hint of peace on his folded face, which was as old as an octogenarian.
Nan Jin's gaze shifted downward, and finally stopped at the hint of a smile on the corner of Emperor Yun's mouth.
It was a smile of satisfaction and relief.
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, a person came out of nowhere, Nan Hibiscus didn't have to look back, and he could guess the identity of the other party from the faint sandalwood that suddenly drifted into the tip of his nose.
"The emperor left with a smile, Your Highness, please mourn." Ji Yunxiao's gaze followed Nan Jin and fell on the face of the person in the coffin.
Thinking of last night's events, it was as if it had just happened, and scenes flashed through her mind quickly.
"......" Nan Jin twisted her eyebrows, and with difficulty withdrew her gaze from the coffin, stopping at Ji Yun's smiling face.
He stared at her, a flash of doubt in his eyes.
After a while, I couldn't help but speak in confusion and asked, "How do you know?" ”
Ji Yun moved his lips with a smile, and before he could say half a word, a shout suddenly came from behind.
"Although my father has been ill for a month, he has a royal doctor by his side, and the medicine has never been broken!
In the past month, there have been no accidents, why did my father die for no reason after the national teacher entered the court last night? ”
As soon as he said this, the princes and princesses who didn't know the situation were surprised and looked over at Ji Yunxiao!
I couldn't care about being sad, just looking at her, wanting her to give a reasonable explanation for what she just said.
"Is that you? ......" A trace of deeper doubt flashed in Nan Jin's eyes, and the eyes staring at her face did not shift any of them away!
He remembered that he had asked the national teacher yesterday, and even did not hesitate to put down the dignity of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace, and knelt down to her, just to ask her to see the future national fortunes of Cangyun Country and beg her to come forward!
However, he remembers it firmly......
At that time, she refused her request......
At that time, she was resolute and did not leave him the slightest leeway.
Therefore, he was unwilling to force her, so he dispelled the idea of letting her come forward.
He was in the East Palace all night, only thinking about his father's illness in his heart, and rarely involved in outside affairs.
So, what happened here in the court last night, he didn't know at all.
However, from the questioning words that came out of the mouth of the eleventh prince just now, he couldn't help but be suspicious of her.
"Your Highness doesn't believe me?" Ji Yunxiao saw the concerns in Nan Jin's heart.
Her heart was cold, she was loyal to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Cangyun Kingdom, and she repeatedly broke her vows to do things for him.
She never thought that he would doubt himself one day!
Ji Yun looked at him stunned with a smile, and saw that the more silent Nan Jin was, the more desolate her heart became.
In the end, she was a little disappointed......
Ji Yunxiao was still faint on the surface, and the corners of his mouth curled sarcastically, "I did meet the emperor last night, and I also stayed in the palace for one night. However, this night, I just stayed by the dragon couch, chatting with the emperor to relieve boredom, and did nothing.
If you don't believe me, you can ask Father-in-law Changle. From the time I was announced by the emperor to enter the palace, Father-in-law Changle has been present to accompany me.
Father-in-law Changle is a person who served the emperor, and finally followed the emperor, two generations of allegiance, you don't believe my words, don't you still believe the words of Changle father-in-law? ”
As soon as she said this, those people immediately turned their attention to the father-in-law of Changle, who was taking care of the emperor's future affairs.
He stopped what he was doing, stood up and said: "The old slave dares to use the head of the item to vouch for it, what the national teacher said just now is true, and there is no false word!" ”
