The palace does not ring the bell if it is not a major event, and Tang Ning did not have a specific number, but estimated that the bell should have rang more than forty times.

The bell rang ninety-five, and the emperor died.

Emperor Chu died at this time, and he didn't know what the situation in the palace was, he looked at Chen Zhou and said, "Tell Commander Lu to be fully prepared." ”

After speaking, he noticed that there was a pain on the back of his hand, and when he looked down, his hand was not only bitten by the little brute girl with a deep tooth mark, but also bleeding out in some places.

Tang Ning shook his hand, glanced at her, and said angrily: "Tie her up!" ”

Chen Zhou arched his hand and said: "Order!" ”

He waited outside the city gate for a short time, and a guard came out of the city and pasted an imperial list on the wall.

Lu Teng ran to the bottom of the imperial list, and after taking a look, he ran over quickly, and said in shock: "Lord Tang, the Emperor of Chu has died, deposed the crown prince in the edict, and passed on the throne to the king......"

Although I don't know what happened in the palace just now, the overall situation has been decided at this time, and there is nothing big to worry about.

Lu Teng looked at him and asked, "My lord, ...... now?"

Tang Ning turned the horse's head and said, "Go and pick up the princess back." ”

After tossing for more than half a year, he tried his best to get the errand of the wedding envoy, and he ran all the way, and as soon as he arrived in the Chu State, he was involved in the undercurrent ......, and after tossing for so long, now the dust has finally settled.

The princess of Chen Guo will not marry the abolished prince of Chu State, and King Xin is so precious to his daughter, he will definitely not agree to Chen Guo's proposal, and the task of his Chu State and his party has been successfully completed, and he can return to Beijing on a later date.

In a certain courtyard in the outskirts of Kyoto, when Tang Ning took Lu Teng and the others to go, the guards at the gate were like facing a great enemy, and when they saw the people clearly, they hurriedly went in to report.

Tang Ning stepped into the door of the mansion, and a figure rushed over and threw himself into his arms.

Downing was even hit by her and almost fell.

Zhao Man still had crystal in his eyes, looked up at him, and choked up: "I'm so worried about you......"

"It's okay, it's okay......" Tang Ning patted her on the back and said, "It's over." ”

Lu Teng's eyes widened as he watched this scene, Chen Zhou stretched out his hand and dragged him out of the door, closing the door by the way.

Lu Teng looked back and muttered, "Lord Tang, princess, this ......"

"What's wrong with Lord Tang, what's wrong with the princess?" Chen Zhou looked at him and said suspiciously: "My subordinates didn't see anything just now......

Lu Teng was stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he looked at the guards in front of him and said, "You guys just stand outside and wait for Lord Tang and the princess to come out." ”

He rubbed his eyes and said, "I didn't see anything just now......"

In the mansion, Tang Ning gently wiped away Zhao Man's tears, and when he looked up, he saw Li Tianlan standing a few steps in front of him.

She looked at Zhao Man, then at Tang Ning, and her slightly faster steps slowed down.

Zhao Man looked back, his face turned red, wiped his tears, and let go of Tang Ning.

Tang Ning coughed lightly, looked at Li Tianlan, and said: "Emperor Chu died, deposed the crown prince, passed the throne to King Xin, the situation in Kyoto has been decided, I will take you back." ”

Princess Xin walked out from the rear and said with a complicated expression: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has died?" ”

Tang Ning nodded and said, "The death knell has been sounded in the palace, and the emperor list has also been posted outside. ”

Princess Xin was silent for a moment, sighed, and said, "Let's go." ”

When Tang Ning took them out of the mansion and helped Zhao Man into the carriage, she suddenly looked at the back of Tang Ning's hand and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with your hand, it's injured?" ”

"It's fine." Tang Ning shook his hand and said, "I was accidentally bitten by a dog." ”

"You're the dog!" Wan Yan Yan, who was tied up, glared at him angrily, looking like she had the urge to pounce on him and bite again.

Zhao Man looked at Wan Yan Yan and asked, "Why is she here again?" ”

Downing explained, "She's now our captive. ”

Zhao Man glared at Yan Yan, stroked the back of his hand, and asked, "Does it still hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt...... everyone else was watching, Tang Ning helped her into the carriage and said, "It's not early, let's hurry up." ”

When I left the city just now, there was still a depressing atmosphere in the city, but when the group went back, the atmosphere in Beijing was already jubilant.

"The crown prince has finally been deposed......"

"Your Majesty passed the throne to His Royal Highness King Xin, and the country of Chu is saved!"

"We have a good life in the future......"

……

The death of the emperor is a national mourning, and it should be mourned by the whole country, but for the people in Beijing, the atmosphere of celebration is higher.

King Xin did not rebel, and Emperor Chu justifiably abdicated, and this matter should also be a beautiful talk in the history books.

Tang Ning first sent Li Tianlan and the princess back to the Xinwang Mansion, I am afraid that they will not live long in the Xinwang Mansion, after the Xinwang succeeds to the throne, the princess will be the queen, and the county lord will also become a princess.

The royal family of Chu seems to have some kind of commonality, the Chu Emperor only has a late queen, and the Xin King only has one princess, I don't know if they can give birth to a prince to inherit the throne in the future, but this is not something that Tang Ning should consider.

The crown prince was deposed, the emperor of Chu died, the task of his trip has been completed, and he should also prepare for the return trip.

Inside the Royal Palace.

King Xin sat alone on the steps in front of the temple of the god of cultivation, and the eunuchs and palace maids below were already kneeling.

An old eunuch stepped forward and whispered, "Lord Wang, the ministers are waiting in the council hall, waiting for you to preside over the overall situation. ”

King Xin stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Let's do it according to the rules of the Ministry of Rites." ”

The old eunuch said again: "The Taishi and the Taifu resigned and told the old ......."

"That's right."

"Lord Right Minister, the two of you are also ...... in the matter"

"It's all right." King Shin waved his hand again and walked out of the palace.

The old eunuch bowed, "Yes." ”

The crown prince was deposed and the emperor died, and above the court of the Chu State, it did not cause much turmoil.

The etiquette system of the emperor's death, the Ministry of Rites has a complete set of procedures, and it can be done step by step, His Majesty has been absent from the court for several years, and the court is in order, and it can still operate in an orderly manner without an emperor.

The only thing that caused waves was that several old ministers of the court, the two elders of the respected Taishi and Taifu, resigned at the same time, and in addition, there were several young courtiers in the court who chose to resign, but this was just a few small pebbles thrown into the calm lake, except for small ripples, nothing rippled.

Splendid Palace.

What happened today has already spread all over Kyoto, and the hearts of the envoys of the Chen State are mixed.

In order to marry, Chen Guo can be said to have made sufficient preparations, and the dowry for the dowry was also extremely rich, and he sent an envoy to send the princess to marry Chu State.

But less than a month after they arrived in Kyoto, the state of Chu abolished the crown prince, collapsed the emperor, and caught them off guard.

The prince is not the prince, and their trip is considered to be in vain.

Fortunately, what happened in the Chu State was an accident within an accident, and it had nothing to do with them, and after returning to Beijing, they should not be punished.

In Tang Ning's room, Zhao Man put the medicinal powder on his hand distressedly, wrapped it in a white cloth, and then looked at Wan Yanyan who was tied up in the corner of the room, showing dissatisfaction.

She pointed at Wan Yan Yan and asked Tang Ning, "What are we going to do with her?" ”

"The second prince and the steppe messenger have all run away, and it's useless to ask for her." Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "If you take her back, you will waste food, otherwise you will kill her." ”

"Huh?" Zhao Man's little face changed, and he said, "It's not good to kill someone, or I'll help you bite her......"

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "Forget it, they prairie people don't like to take a bath, and their bodies are smelly." ”

Wan Yan Yan seemed to be insulted, jumped over, and said loudly: "I take a bath every day, and my whole body is fragrant, I don't believe you smell it!" ”

Downing reached behind her back, untied her rope, and said, "You go." ”

Wan Yan Yan looked at him and wondered, "You're going to let me go?" ”

The second prince has run away, and it is useless to leave her, she eats so much, and every day she stays with her, she has to waste unnecessary food.

As for the spicy hand destroying flowers, Tang Ning has never thought about it like this, the kittens and puppies have been raised for a long time and still have feelings, and the captives that have been raised for a month are really going to be disposed of by King Xin, and he feels very uncomfortable.

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Before I change my mind, you can go." ”

Wan Yan Yan looked at him and strode outside.

Walking to the door, she turned back again.

Tang Ning looked up at her and asked, "Anything else?" ”

She looked at Tang Ning and said confidently, "I don't know the way." ”
