Xu Shichang held the edict and the sword of the Son of Heaven He Beichang in both hands, and stood up staggeringly, these two things seemed to weigh a thousand pounds in his hands, and he gradually felt that he was about to lose his grip.

Dragged his legs slowly out of the dormitory.

King Beichang was still smiling when he looked at Xu Shichang's departing back, and when he walked out of the palace, he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.

Gently wiped the blood stains from his mouth and nose with his hands, looked at Xu Shichang's position just now with a complicated expression, closed his eyes slightly and sighed.

Xu Shichang heard the movement and paused, it took a lot of effort to hold back and not turn back, he turned back, and the king of Beichang would continue to work hard. Xu Shichang trembled and walked out.

He walked very slowly, and it took a long time to walk from the dormitory to the palace gate, and the officials waiting at the palace gate naturally understood what was going on inside when they saw the two things in his hand.

Qi knelt on the ground and made the biggest salute, which means that in their hearts, Xu Shichang is already the king of Beichang, although the canonization ceremony has not yet been carried out, but the throne is his.

"Ministers send the king! Ministers send the king!"

The sound of the officials' send-off in unison reached the ears of the king of Beichang, and he slowly sat up from the bed, he sat very straight, not at all like he was critically ill, and he looked outside and began to laugh.

"After 24 years on the throne, I have governed the country diligently, for the country and the people, and now I am rich and peaceful in Beichang, and the people have no worries about food and clothing. I Xu Zhiguo dare not say that he has worked hard in his life, but at least he has made up for some of the sins of the previous kings, even if he enters Jiuquan, I can see that there is no war, a peaceful and peaceful world. King Beichang said softly.

"I really took great pains to let you be scolded less by the world, but I took pity on my children, and the world was left to you. If there is reincarnation, I want to see what this country will become in the hands of you children, I want to see more of this country that I haven't had time to see, and I want to see what you two children will become in the end. King Beichang paused for a moment and then whispered.

"Hehe, why did you suddenly become so verbose. King Beichang shook his head lightly and continued.

"First king, the son will come to you later, the child is too tired, let him sleep a little longer, I will hold on a little longer, you wait a little longer, it will be fine for a while." King Beichang gently closed his eyes and said softly.

"Greetings to the new king! Greetings to the new king!"

The officials got up, knelt down again, saluted, and then spoke in unison.

Xu Shichang stood quietly at the gate of the palace, holding the edict in his left hand, standing in front of him with He Beichang in his right hand, and the robe behind him moved with the night wind.

Although the robe was a little tattered, it did not affect the majesty he revealed, which was the spirit of a king.

He is no longer the elegant and gentle prince, from this moment on, he is the lord of the Beichang Empire, he is the king!

Xu Shichang just stood there quietly, with no intention of leaving the palace and returning to the house, nor did he want to arrange various affairs, no one knew what he wanted to do, but if he didn't give an order, no one dared to get up.

Holding a sword to stand at the palace gate, everyone in the audience couldn't understand what he meant, his legs were a little trembling and numb when he knelt, but Xu Shichang seemed to be invisible, he just stood there quietly, always maintaining a fixed posture, and did not look at those officials, but looked straight ahead.

"Let's go back first, and let the new king stay on guard for the night. Seeing this, the national teacher Rodin said.

Hearing this, all the officials were a little puzzled, it was not polite to hold a sword to set up the palace gate, and he still had to guard it for one night? If it was an ordinary person, everyone would definitely think that he was going to launch a palace change, but at this time the situation was already clear, and the palace change was obviously impossible.

The officials didn't think much about it anymore, and wanted to kneel for a while to show their loyalty, but their numb knees didn't allow them to kneel here for the night, so they got up and left.

"Shiliang, go back to sleep, I'll stay here for a while, so that my father can sleep well. All the officials have left, Xu Shichang looked at Xu Shiliang, who was still sitting on the ground crying, and said.

"Yes. Xu Shiliang wiped his tears and said, and then walked into the palace gate.

The night wind blows a little chill on the body, which means that summer has passed and autumn has arrived.

After a while, his father-in-law put on a snow-white robe for him, not a royal robe.

Spirit Academy.

"Uncle, the king of Beichang is critically ill. Yang Hejiu looked at Mullanzhou and said.

"Sooner or later, his illness is very strange, it can't be cured, and he could have lived a few more years, and it seems that last year that incident made him very angry. Mullanzhou said.

"Shall we tell him?" Yang Hejiu asked after thinking for a while.

"It's too late to see him for the last time, and what are you going to tell him to do, let him come back and fight for the throne?"

"Can't you bring him back?" Yang Hejiu asked.

In Yang Hejiu's cognition, the powerhouses of the Divine Journey Realm come and go for thousands of miles, and if Mullan wants to, he can naturally bring him back at any time to see him for the last time.

"Xiao Jiu, many things are not as simple as they seem to be on the surface, bring him back and naturally see him for the last time, but what about after bringing him back? How do you let the two brothers get along, what about this city, and what about Beichang? The lord of the country was confused for a while, and the two pardon orders adopted a lot of forces for him, if those people knew that His Royal Highness the Second Prince was in the capital, they were afraid that there would be a lot of commotion in various places, Lin Pinggui had a saying that was right, Beichang could not be chaotic. ”

"Now only the eldest prince is alone in the capital, then he is the only heir, everyone knows that the lord of the country prefers Xiao Anzi, if Xiao Anzi comes back, what will the hundred officials think? What should the masses think? The Spirit Academy does not participate in the affairs of the court, and only Lin Pinggui will be afraid that he will not be able to suppress it at that time, as for the two children to deal with their own affairs, it is enough to bother, how to deal with these. Mullanzhou shook his head and said.

"It doesn't matter if you don't see the last one. Mullanzhou continued.

"But sooner or later he will know, and you said he would definitely come back. ”

"Let's wait until they stabilize the situation. ”

Inside the General's Palace.

"Is there something wrong with Lord Yushi?" Lin Pinggui asked as he looked at Cui Xianggong.

"Why should the general ask knowingly, the king is critically ill, and when His Royal Highness the second prince returns to the capital, he is afraid that it will cause a commotion. Cui Xianggong said.

"What do you mean?" Lin Pinggui then asked.

He naturally knew what this Imperial Master meant, but he was far from being as rough and unaware of power as he seemed.

Cui Xianggong felt that there was a cunning old fox in front of him, and he had said it to this point, he still pretended to be confused, and he pretended to be confused, and the topic naturally could not continue, and Cui Xianggong left the general's mansion with him.

Beigong.

It's late at night, but Xu Shichang is still standing there so quietly, he is standing very steady, and he doesn't seem to have moved a bit.

But his heart is far more calm than on the surface, he is about to be overwhelmed by the edict on his left hand, and he has been thinking about the words of King Beichang in his heart, how will he face Shi'an?

As King Beichang said, it doesn't matter whether that thing was done by himself or not, the important thing is that the ultimate beneficiary is himself, and this has already been confirmed.

Now that he is king, how can he clear his name? Of course, he can re-investigate this case, but where does he start to investigate? Who will believe the results of the re-investigation?

If the king of Beichang re-investigates, no matter what the result is, it will at least be true, which is why he came to redress his grievances. But now he can only carry these alone, some heavy, he is a little tired.

His eyes were a little hollow, he was scared, but he had to bear it, he was the king of this country, and he was responsible for this country, and he was responsible for his people.

Thousands of sorrows were trapped in the top of his head, his mind was in chaos, he slowly felt that he seemed to have changed something, but he didn't have the heart to think about it, he still stood quietly at the gate of the palace with his sword.

The night was hard for a lot of people.

Early morning.

King Beichang looked at the first rays of morning light rising outside, smiled slightly, and as if he had been amnesty, his tense body collapsed on the bed, and he lay down heavily.

His eyes closed slowly, there was no nostalgia in his eyes, only unbearable, the moment he was about to close it, he seemed to see snowflakes floating outside the door, and smiled slightly: "Heh, I dreamed that God also came to see me off." ”

Suddenly there was the barking of dogs in the city, followed by more barking, and then the sound of crowing chickens.

When a resident heard the movement, he scolded and sat up from the bed, thinking that it was really strange, why did this dog start crowing too?

The moment I got up, I suddenly felt a chill coming, and I couldn't help sneezing, and I couldn't help but curse a few times What the hell is this weather.

When he pushed the door open, his body suddenly froze at the door, and it was most appropriate to describe it as a dumb chicken, looking at the sky outside the door blankly, the snow in September sounded incredible, in fact, it was a very incredible thing in this city.

Everyone opened their windows to look at the heavy snow outside, although the snow was strange, but it was just snow and had no effect.

But the snow seemed to be a little salty, and before the snow had fallen, the crowd began to cry uncontrollably, and even forgot to go back to the house to add an extra dress, even though they didn't know what they were crying for.

The whole city was crying, there was no crying, just crying.

The snow was flying in the air but refused to fall, as if it was a little reluctant, as if it was saying goodbye.

The heavy snow has not yet fallen, so there is no trace of snow on the surrounding ground, and the palace walls and roofs still maintain their original colors, but Xu Shichang, who is standing at the gate of the palace, is whiter than the ground.

With a snow-white robe and long snow-white hair, Xu Shichang at this time looks like an immortal with crane hair and a childish face, but the immortal only exists in the story of Mr. Storyteller, and his appearance is not as free and natural as the immortal, but only a little pitiful.

In the autumn of Qing'an 18, Xu Zhiguo, the king of Beichang, died, and he was nicknamed Changwenjun and enjoyed the Taimiao.

The eldest prince Xu Shichang then succeeded to the throne and did not change the era name.

A few days later, the national teacher Luo Dan took the initiative to resign and return to the old age, and the position of the national teacher was vacant.

........................................................................... Dividing line

Xu Shichang's father succeeded to the throne in the ninth year of Taishi, his father's name is Xu Zhiguo, and the reason why he has always used the king of Beichang instead of his name is that I am deliberately emphasizing that he is a king, not an emperor.

Although this is a new world, according to our usual understanding, the emperor is the eldest son of Haotian, and his level is higher than that of the moon god. Because of the existence of Wangshu Tower, there is no emperor here, and I can't spoil whether there will be one in the future.

There was a major drought in the ninth year of Taishi, and Xu Zhiguo's father died of anger because of incompetence. After that, Xu Zhiguo took over the throne, so Xu Zhiguo is a Ming monarch, and the drought has nothing to do with him, I will write about these in nine articles.
