At the beginning of dawn in the east, the sky is bright. All the courtiers who had followed the Holy Driver all the way east were finally allowed to enter the palace. The fire in the west hall had just been extinguished, and the air was still filled with pungent smoke and fire. Although many people came to me in panic last night, wanting to go in and see what was going on. But they were all blocked out by the Yulin Army.

King Wuqiu Shou, who commanded the Yulin army, had a very resolute attitude, saying that someone had caused a fire, and for the safety of His Majesty the Emperor and everyone, he was not allowed to move casually.

Now, however, when the apprehensive courtiers were allowed to enter, the shocking news was that just last night, His Majesty the Emperor had died!

Although some people still can't believe it, the facts are in front of them. The emperor is dead, and he lies there. The inside and outside of the main hall have been replaced with a piece of vegetarian. All sorts of messy cries began to sound.

Shocked, shocked, overwhelmed...... Many emotions come to everyone's face. No one thought that this trip would have such an ending. The sudden death of His Majesty the Emperor outside, whatever the reason, caused by the shock was inevitable.

And immediately, after they heard the eunuch chief Jiang Yu read out the edict of succession in public, they were even more dumbfounded. Everyone looked at each other, thinking that they had misheard.

"The Waste Prince...... Re-establish the king of Langya? This, where does this begin? ”

"The prince is benevolent and filial, he has never done anything wrong, how can he ...... What a child's play! ”

"Your Majesty has died, people are already flustered, and suddenly they have to change the heir to the throne, isn't this going to cause chaos in the world!"

"King Langya is young, how can he be ...... big responsibility?"

Listening to the whispering discussions below, Ni Kuan frowned. At such a critical moment, we must not allow such signs of doubt to appear, otherwise all the work done will be wasted. He looked at King Wuqiu Shou, and then came out first and said loudly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty has personally granted the edict here, and has clearly designated King Langya to inherit the throne. Why, is there anyone who wants to resist the Divine Decree? ”

He looked back and forth at everyone's expressions with unrecognizable faces. The following chatter gradually subsided. Immediately afterwards, the armor-clad Wuqiu Shouwang had a horizontal sword in his hand, and Sen Ran shouted.

"Your Majesty's will, the Yulin Army swears to defend it! If anyone does not obey, it is a crime of disobedience. For the sake of overall stability, Hugh blames the sword for being ruthless! ”

Originally, there were still people who were not convinced, but when they looked up at the group of murderous Yulin Army guards around them, they consciously closed their mouths. In comparison, it's your own head that matters. At such a moment, if you are casually put on a big rebellious hat, not only will you be unlucky, but your family in Chang'an will not have good fruits to eat.

Seeing everyone, they quickly fell silent. King Wuqiu Shou smiled coldly, he had understood a truth since a long time ago. There is nothing impossible in the world, even if it refers to the deer as a horse and black as white, as long as you have such power in your hands, you can easily turn the clouds and rain as you want. What the eunuch named Zhao Gao could do more than a hundred years ago, he could do it himself, and he would do it better.

Tian Wujiang watched from behind and nodded slightly. This proud disciple of mine really understands the use of power more and more. With such means, over time, he will definitely be able to assist himself in controlling the Han court.

In this case, strike while the iron is hot. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to force everyone to acknowledge the current situation. As long as this edict is approved by the courtiers who accompany him, and King Langya's succession to the throne has been completed, even if there are doubts when he returns to Chang'an, it will not hinder the overall situation.

At this time, it was the turn of this freshly baked national teacher to appear. Most people know that Donghaijun is the closest celebrity to the emperor's side, and he has heard that there are all kinds of immortal methods. At this time, Dan saw him a few steps closer, pulled up Liu Fuling, the king of Langya, who was kneeling in front of the emperor's bed and weeping, helped him sit in the middle, and then retreated and bowed, shouting long live congratulations.

Ni Kuan, Wuqiu Shouwang, Jiang Yu and others then followed to congratulate again. After a moment's hesitation, the other ministers and deacons began to bow to the ground. Soon, almost everyone bowed down, and the voices of congratulations continued.

A kingdom shall not be without a king for a day. Although the funeral of the deceased emperor has not yet begun, the establishment of a new emperor seems to be more important. No one wants to make an irreparable mistake at this juncture.

King Langya sat on a high seat, condescendingly looking at these courtiers who were bowing their heads in front of him, and at this moment, the young man's heart began to become infinitely stronger. No wonder my mother wanted to make herself a prince by any means, it turned out that the taste of power was so wonderful!

It's just that when his gaze swept over, he was slightly stunned. Because, in the crowd of worshippers, there was only one person who was still standing upright, looking coldly at everything in front of him, his face was full of indifference. On such an occasion, it is simply too obvious that someone is so unconventional.

Hearing the surprised "huh" sound from King Langya's mouth, Tian Wujiang, who didn't know what was going on, raised his body and turned his head to look at him with his gaze, his face sank at that time.

The waves of the East China Sea washed Langya Terrace day and night, and the rising sun shone into the hall again, and when everyone lowered their heads to know the times, a historian with shackles and shackles straightened his chest and refused to bend his noble head.

"Sima Qian! What do you want to do without meeting the new emperor...... So rude, bold! ”

Without waiting for others to speak, King Wuqiu Shou had already pressed his sword out. On today's occasion, he actually very much wants to find an opportunity to kill people and establish his authority in order to dispel the grievances in the hearts of some people. It's just that most of these people are old oilmen in the officialdom and never suffer immediate losses. Originally, he had dispelled this idea, but he didn't expect that this Tai Shi Ling, who had been unhappy for him for a long time, would take the initiative to bump into him. The hand holding the sword of the commander of the Yulin Army, who was about to become the commander of the Great Han Shangshu, was quite a bit murderous.

Everyone who noticed the anomaly turned around, and they saw the sparkle of anger in the eyes of Taishi Ling Sima Qian, who had been put in chains as punishment not long ago for angering the former emperor. Faced with the question of King Wuqiu Shou, he only replied coldly.

"The first emperor unfortunately passed away, and the crown prince should succeed him. The new monarch is in Chang'an, how can there be a new emperor here! ”

As soon as the words came out, the whole audience was shocked. Although such thoughts exist in the hearts of many people, the situation is stronger than people, and as long as people who understand the stakes, they will not say such things at such a moment. And Sima Qian, who was just a little Taishi Ling, dared to say it on the spot so bluntly, and the wording was harsh. This、I don't want to live anymore!

"Tai Shi Ling, what you said is not right. The Sprinkle family just finished reading out the edict of the former emperor, didn't you hear it? The edict is clearly written, abolishing the prince and establishing the king of Langya! So many people here have understood it, and when you say this now, it is clear that you are committing disobedience, and the sin is great! ”

The chief eunuch Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows, and his fierce face was revealed. He looked at Sima Qian viciously, secretly despising him in his heart. A guilty guy who doesn't know what his future will be, but he's meddling here. I really don't know how heavy it is!

But he didn't expect Sima Qian to not even look at him. just held the shackles with bloodstained hands, looked up to the sky and sighed, and his face was full of sorrow.

"I think I have been familiar with history books since I was a child, and every time I talk to my friends about the changes in the sand dunes of the First Emperor of the Great Qin, I sigh relatively unhurriedly! The Great Qin monarchs and ministers were so proud of their martial arts and martial arts, but they didn't expect that they would be played with by Xiaoxiao in the end, killing the virtuous and foolish, dying and destroying the country, and becoming a joke for future generations...... The Han Dynasty is unfortunate, is it possible to repeat its mistakes today? ”

He even said such a thing, but he hit the nail on the head. Everyone was shocked. Sima Qian: This is a blatant accusation of someone being hypocritical! In other words, he suspected that the edict was fake, and someone colluded to reenact the story after the death of Qin Shi Huang! As for who it is, although it is not named, it is very obvious that it is not known.

King Wuqiu Shou was furious, he "choked" the sword out of the sheath, pointed at the independent Sima Qian and shouted: "The body of the first emperor is in front of you, and the words are still in your ears. Are you really not afraid of splashing blood and dying in three steps? ”

There was a person next to him who was usually good with Sima Qian, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he hurriedly pulled his sleeve and signaled him not to say any more, so as not to cause trouble and suffer a big loss. Unexpectedly, this Taishi Ling ignored the gaze of the people around him, broke free from the involvement of others, and walked straight forward.

His clothes were shabby, his hair was unkempt, dusty, and stained with blood. The sound of chains mopping the floor was a bit harsh. fell in the eyes of onlookers, adding a bit of pathos. Many people watched in amazement, and he walked step by step, ignoring the imminent addition of the sword, and even more ignoring the fact that life and death were in an instant. When this weak scholar pushed away the blade of the sword blocking his chest with his hand that was accustomed to holding the pen, the blood dripped like glass, and even the guards of the Yulin Army who wanted to come over and take him down involuntarily took a few steps back. This is an indescribable feeling, it is different from the head-on killing of spears and halberds, and it is also different from the momentum of thousands of troops, but it makes people unable to resist and retreat for no reason.

In thousands of years of Chinese civilization, this is an indelible inheritance, and its name is "righteousness".

"Now, you can kill me! Let this enthusiasm see off the emperor! ”

Wearing shackles and chains, the great Han Taishi ordered Sima Qian, kneeling down in front of the bed of the dead emperor Liu Che, without the slightest fear of being killed. The tears in his eyes were bloody, but the smile on his face was still there.

However, King Wuqiu Shou, who was completely enraged, was stopped by Tian Wujiang without the sword in his hand slashing Sima Qian's neck.

"Don't make a fuss, focus on the big picture. A little Tai Shi Ling's words are insignificant at all, and it is not too late to return to Chang'an and kill again. The war in Chang'an City is what we really need to pay attention to! ”
