It has been a month since the death of the emperor, during this time, the Xia Dynasty can be described as a turbulent and dragon and tiger gathering, and the prince was the first person to rush back to the imperial capital, but as soon as he entered the territory of Yuxia Xinjiang, he was blocked outside the territory by six million soldiers led by Nangong Xiongba.

Although the prince has gathered seven million soldiers, but those soldiers have not yet run in, and the soldiers are also uneven.

It turned out that the soldiers under the crown prince were all temporarily drawn from the six territories around the imperial capital, including the soldiers in the territory of the four princes.

Seeing this incident, the prince was startled and hurriedly retreated for a hundred miles, after that, the prince counted and calculated, the soldiers under him, except for the one million soldiers in his own territory, the six hundred thousand soldiers in Xia Yuantu's territory, and one million soldiers in Xia Yuanxiao's territory, the rest of the soldiers all had their own masters.

There are soldiers from the second prince's camp, and there are also a few soldiers in the territory of the idle prince, which is simply scattered, and the prince can command those people at the border, but at this delicate juncture, he does not dare to use the rest of the soldiers except for his own descendant army.

Fortunately, the crown prince is also a smart and shrewd person, who has been in charge of the country for many years, and he has also recruited a group of military generals to serve as governors of the territory, all of whom are hardcore royalists, and he sent people to contact these people and ordered them to lead troops to the imperial capital to support.

At the same time, the crown prince pulled all the soldiers to the front line, putting on a posture of being angry and wanting to desperately attack the city, when the attention of Nangong Xiongba and the soldiers under his command was all attracted, he quietly sent a team of henchmen to infiltrate the imperial capital and go to Xicheng to find the Heavenly Demon Green Bamboo.

Just when the prince confronted Nangong Xiongba's men and horses, the second prince Xia Yuanwen returned to the imperial capital, and the second prince won over Peng Tiangang and led 10 million soldiers to advance towards the imperial capital, but when he came to the border of Yuxia Xinjiang, he was also stopped by Nangong Xiongba.

The second prince thought that there were 10 million soldiers on his side, and there were only 7 million soldiers on Nangong Xiongba's side, plus Nangong Xiongba had to beware of the 6 million men on the prince's side, so he would definitely win.

As long as you enter the forbidden city of the imperial capital, put the queen mother and the prince under house arrest, and then rely on the support of those ministers, you can successfully ascend the throne, just when the second prince fantasized about the dream of ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, an unexpected news came in.

Zhong Shenxiu, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, led three million heroes from all walks of life to the imperial capital to support the new monarch, although those people in the green forest were not as good as the regular army, but with the addition of these people, it also greatly boosted the morale of the army.

Looking at the people in the rivers and lakes opposite, the second prince's expression was gloomy and about to drip water, these people from the Wulin League were originally his trump cards, and the three dukes were usually responsible for liaison, and now the people of the Wulin League have changed their banners to support the new monarch, does it mean that the position of the three princes has changed?

Although the second prince was anxious, but when he didn't figure out the situation in the Qing Dynasty, he really didn't dare to enter the palace rashly, looking at the other party's reinforcements, the second prince had to temporarily suspend his troops, and he also sent a team to infiltrate the forbidden city to investigate the recent situation.

Just when the crown prince and the second prince were blocked at the door of Yuxiajiang led by Nangong Xiongba, the fourth prince Xia Yuanyou finally rushed back to the imperial capital.

After a month of wooing, most of the civil and military officials in the court have been won over by Nangong Hongru, who successfully convinced Zhuge Yiyan and the three princes of the dynasty with his incorruptible tongue, and also attracted many ministers and governors of the territory.

Nangong Hongru wooed Wenchen, and Nangong Xiongba used his identity as one of the three giants in the military world to subdue those generals, he himself has a very high prestige, and his martial arts are at the top level, so under his grace and power, more than 20 first-class military marshals all expressed their support for the new monarch.

In addition to the surrendered and subdued civil generals, there were still more than 40 civil and military generals in the court who refused to recognize the new monarch, believing that all this was a conspiracy of the queen mother, and they did not recognize the emperor title of the four princes until their death.

Some of those courtiers were loyal to the crown prince, saying that the crown prince should inherit the throne. There are also some courtiers who are loyal to the second prince, thinking that the second prince is the most qualified to inherit the throne, seeing that these people are stubborn and unable to convince them, Nangong Hongru had to take them into prison and keep them for later enlightenment.

On the day when the four princes returned to the imperial capital, a huge new monarch enthronement ceremony was held in the forbidden city, the ceremony lasted for three days and three nights, and on the fourth day, the new emperor Xia Yuanyou released the "Talent List" in the hope that the world's rulers and heroes would come to the imperial capital to serve the imperial court.

Then, Xia Yuanyou held a state funeral, buried the body of the first emperor Xia Ding into the ancestral temple, according to the ancestral system, the new emperor wrote the "honorific name" for the first emperor, and the emperor kept filial piety alone for three days, placed the concubines of the first emperor, and after everything was right, the emperor was diligent in the government.

Everything went very smoothly, but no one expected that after the burial of the first emperor, Xia Yuanyou guarded the emperor's spiritual position for three days, a rumor came out of the palace, at first this rumor only circulated from the palace, then spread to the court, and finally spread at an incredible speed.

"Hey, have you heard? It turned out that the first emperor passed the position of the ninety-five supreme unification to the second prince, but unfortunately when the first emperor died, the second prince went to the disaster area for disaster relief, and did not guard from the front, as long as the queen waited from the front that night.

When the emperor died, the queen took advantage of the unpreparedness, secretly looked at the emperor's legacy decree, after seeing the content inside, the queen was surprised and lost, later, the queen imitated the handwriting of the first emperor, the content of the succession decree was changed.

The content of the Holy Decree of the First Emperor in the original place is: "I pass on the Emperor's position in the fourth prince." But after the queen mother saw the content of the holy decree, she took the imperial pen of the first emperor and changed the "two" in the holy decree to "four", so that the second prince became the fourth prince. ”

I don't know where this news spread from, after hearing this rumor, the dynasty that had just wanted to be stable collapsed instantly, and the four princes who had just ascended the throne and became the usurper prince who stole the throne, and the crown prince and the second prince expressed their position at the same time, not recognizing the status of the new emperor, and the two wanted to call on the world's soldiers and horses to crusade against the four princes who usurped the throne.
