In Kyoto, Daxia, Xiangguo Mansion, Imperial History Mansion, Hanlin Temple, etc., people ran to the courtyard and looked at the direction of the palace in shock. Although it was expected for a long time, the real arrival of this moment still shocked everyone.

Yu Ban's face was grim, and he ordered, "Prepare the carriage and horses and enter the palace." ”

In the Imperial Palace, Wu Guangguang was also resolute, "Prepare a sedan chair and enter the palace!" ”

In a deep palace compound in the southeast of Kyoto, the old prince Prince Hong sighed slightly, "You have to come after you, Yu Ning, you can make your uncle miserable." Come on, this king wants to enter the palace~! ”

The doors of the mansions were wide open, and the cars and sedan chairs flocked to the palace.

In the Heavenly Master Palace, the death of Emperor Yuning and Zhang Ruming's 'miracles' are perfectly coordinated. As if inspired by the gods, the courtiers and the crowds of people who participated in the prayers flocked to all corners of Kyoto to preach this sacred scene.

Inside the palace, there was a flood of mourning, and hundreds of civil and military officials who came quickly gathered outside the Jinluan Palace. The door of the hall was closed, and even the guards guarding outside the Jinluan Hall were covered in white robes, and the atmosphere was solemn and tense.

At this moment, in the palace, Xiangguo Yu Ban, Lao Hanlin Wang Shidu, Du Yushi Wu Guangguang and the six servants all gathered in the Yang Xin Palace. According to the tradition of successive kings taking over the throne, these important ministers must first pay homage, and then discuss the funeral of the first and auxiliary ministers, and then the first and auxiliary ministers will lead the ministers to open the palace to discuss politics.

On the square in front of the Jinluan Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials formed groups of three or five, and they all discussed in low voices. These members of the court don't know what kind of ending will appear in the court today. However, many of these courtiers soon spread the news of the miracles in the Heavenly Master Hall among the courtiers.

The courtiers waited anxiously for nearly an hour before they saw a plain-clothed eunuch nervously running over.

"Everyone wait for silence and open the door of the temple~!"

After the eunuch finished singing loudly, the civil and military officials saw Yu Ban and other important ministers walking out of the side door. Yu Ban, Wu Guangguang and other important ministers in the court, all with blue faces and cold eyebrows, seemed to have quarreled in the palace.

Everyone looked solemn and began to enter the temple according to the train. At this moment, I saw that Duan Lang and Zhang Ruming were late. Duan Lang and Zhang Ruming did not insert into the team according to their grades, but stood at the end of the team and followed into the main hall.

Duan Lang's brows were tightly locked, before he came, he had strongly persuaded the Seventh Prince Delong not to enter the palace. But Delong insisted on paying homage to his father, and no matter how much persuasion he tried, it was useless. In desperation, Duan Lang had no choice but to hand over the golden tokens of him and Zhang Ruming to Gu Fan and Xiang Tian, and ordered the two of them to protect Delong closely. However, Duan Lang knew that there was really going to be an accident, and the two of them would not be able to play a role at all.

In the palace, everyone had a small abacus, and Yu Ban's eyes drooped slightly like an old monk. In any case, the emperor cannot be left without an owner in a day, and today he must push the crown prince to sit on the throne of the Jinluan Palace. Moreover, the crown prince is in charge of the country, and he is also the best choice. But Yu Ban also knew in his heart that some people would not let him go so smoothly.

Different from the previous dynasty, there was no eunuch on duty chanting loudly, but with a chime, the old eunuch Wei Dong, dressed in plain clothes, held a spiritual position, and walked out of the side door with tears. Behind him, Prince Hong, dressed in a python robe, was in the center, and the four princes were on the left and right.

Many courtiers looked at it in amazement, not understanding how Prince Hong could walk behind the spiritual throne. It is said that he is the elder of Emperor Yuning, even if Emperor Yuning dies, Prince Hong can wait for the state funeral at home.

In the midst of everyone's consternation, Yu Ban, Wang Shidu and other old ministers knelt down one after another, and there was a sound of crying above the hall. Duan Lang saw the Seventh Prince appear above the palace, and his heart was slightly calm.

The old eunuch Wei Dong placed the spiritual seat of Emperor Yuning in the middle of the imperial case, looked at it for a long time, and then turned around and said sadly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor dies and the world is sad, but the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and I hope that your lordships ~ mourn."

The crying in the court gradually subsided, and Yu Ban and other old ministers also stood up. Everyone knows that the real show is beginning to be staged. But I don't know who is the big winner in today's game.

Prince Hong glanced at everyone, and everyone thought that he would say something on the scene, but they didn't expect Prince Hong to shout loudly outside the hall.

"Come on, close the palace gate, without the will of the king, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and those who violate the order ~ beheaded!"

The civil and military officials were all stunned, and they saw two or three thousand people rushing out of the hula outside the hall, quickly replacing the palace guards who were on normal duty. Seeing the costumes of this centaur, Duan Lang's heart tightened. He was too familiar with this costume, and Duan Lang had also worn it. These people are actually the black-armored guards in the forbidden army.

Yu Ban also frowned, glanced at Prince Hong meaningfully, and didn't say anything. Wu Guangguang was also very strange, and his eyes inadvertently looked at Chang Guangyu, the secretary of Guanglu Temple. Chang Guangyu shook his head blankly, although nominally the black armor guard was under his jurisdiction, he indicated that he did not know.

The doors of the hall closed, and the hall fell silent. Prince Hong looked at Yu Ban and Wu Guangguang and said softly.

"Lord Yu, Lord Wu, as the first assistant of the national mourning, don't you know what to say?"

The civil and military officials were stunned again, but they didn't expect that the head and assistant of the National Funeral Pavilion were actually two people.

Yu Ban looked at Wu Guangguang, and Wu Guangguang said humbly, "Lord Xiangguo, let's talk about it first." ”

Yu Ban was not polite, nodded, turned to look at everyone, and said loudly.

"Colleagues, today the world is very sad, Your Majesty will go before us. As the minister of a country, the old man will not say sad words for the time being, everything is based on the foundation of the country. The emperor died, the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and the prime minister feels that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should immediately succeed to the throne and lead us to the whole country to mourn. I don't know if you can agree. ”

As soon as Yu Ban's words fell, Chu Baoxiong immediately stood up and shouted loudly, "The prince has been in charge of the country for some time, and he has inherited the throne and the will of the people, and the minister~ is sure that His Royal Highness the prince will succeed to the throne immediately." ”

"Minister~ I implore His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to succeed to the throne immediately~!"

"Minister~Willing to please~!"

Many ministers in the DPRK and China knelt down and prayed. Yu Ban was very satisfied with this effect, and Prince Dezhang hurriedly said excitedly.

"Everyone~Everyone~Dezhang is not talented, since you are all recognized, Dezhang will definitely inherit his father's virtue and create the glory of my Great Xia~~!"

"Wait!" Wu Guangguang interrupted loudly.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, today's court is only a discussion, not a final proposal. The old minister thinks that my Great Summer is brilliant, and the benevolent one is on top. The old minister is not talented, and he will raise the seventh prince Delong ~ to take over the throne. ”

After Wu Guangguang finished speaking, many Wenchen suddenly stood up and expressed their positions. Prince Dezhang's face was pale, and he couldn't wait to step forward and strangle Wu Guangguang. Just as everyone was arguing, they suddenly heard Zhang Ruming shouting loudly.

"This Heavenly Master prayed for blessings today, received the decree of the gods, and signaled His Highness Delong to ascend to the throne. Your Highness Delong is hereby invited to ascend the throne. Whoever disobeys God's will will be damned. ”

When Yu Ban heard this, he trembled with anger, "Nonsense, heaven and earth renew the reincarnation of the sun and the moon, and the inheritance of the emperor is the important matter of the country, how can it be said that God will." If you dare to bewitch the public again, don't blame yourself for using the authority of the country, and you will not be spared. ”

Zhang Ruming snorted disdainfully, "Lord Yu, if you accuse the gods like this, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?" ”

Dali Temple Qing Fan Cheng also stood up, "Lord Xiangguo, a miracle did happen today, Weichen saw it with his own eyes, and there was no lie." ”

"Shut up!" Yu Ban's forehead was bruised, he didn't expect this Shangguan Xuanwu to actually make some miracles. You must know that once this kind of thing spreads, it will be more terrifying than an army of 100,000.

Yu Ban couldn't let this kind of topic continue, so he hurriedly gave Zhu Wenjun, the squire of the military department, a look. Zhu Wenjun hesitated for a moment, but had to stand up.

"My military department ~ supports the succession of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Weichen was born in the camp in Kyoto, and he can also represent Yan Facheng, who fought on the front line, to show his attitude and support the crown prince's succession. ”

"Ministers~Officials support the crown prince's succession~!"

"Minister~Ministry of Industry supports the crown prince's succession~!"

Several ministers stepped forward and began to speak on behalf of their respective forces. Lao Hanlin Wang Shidu took a deep breath, "Lao Chen Wang Shidu~support~His Royal Highness Delong succeeds to the throne~!" ”

After Wang Shidu finished speaking, many Wenchen officials also began to support Delong. It wasn't until the end that Duan Lang said loudly.

"The last general, Duan Lang, on behalf of General Jiye of the Western Daying Fang, supports His Royal Highness Delong to succeed to the throne. His Royal Highness Delong is the Generalissimo of the Western Soldiers and Horses, and he is deeply loved by His Majesty. If His Majesty is still alive, the last general believes that His Majesty will choose the Seven Princes as the future king. ”

Duan Lang's words can be described as a boulder smashed into the calm water. He is also warning everyone that His Royal Highness Delong definitely has more military power in his hands than Prince Dezhang. After all, Ma Ru is Delong's own uncle, and he will definitely support him.

The crown prince Dezhang looked angry, but Yu Ban quietly gave him a look, which meant that he was a little calm, and the court was just fighting with each other. How can you ascend to the throne without bloodshed, the real beginning is still outside the court.

The ministers of the court and the central government argued about making up for the leave, and the old prince Hong looked at Wei Dong and said with a sigh.

"Your Majesty's God is perfect, and the old minister can only do his best. Wei Dong, Xuan Xuan~! ”

Wei Tong nodded, turned to look at the civil and military officials in the quarrel, and shouted loudly.

"Silence~The ministers listen to the edict~!"

After Wei Dong finished speaking, he unfolded a holy decree. Not only were several princes surprised, but even Yu Ban and the others were a little stunned. When he was discussing in the Heart Cultivation Hall just now, Wei Dong didn't say anything about it.

Wei Dong looked at everyone and said aloud, "I ~ Yu Ning, in charge of the nineteen rivers and mountains, I have no merits to be ashamed of the ancestors. Before I died, I read my worries about the war in Great Xia, and left a special edict. After I leave, the rebels of Nanping and Xiyue will definitely mess with me. In order to achieve the stability of my Great Xia, I was canonized on my deathbed, Emperor Dezhang, the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Southern Front, and led two battalions of soldiers and horses to expel the foreign invaders and arrest the rebels of Xining Zhao Li. Canonized Emperor Delong, as the generalissimo of Zhenxi, expelled the enemy of Xiyue, and pacified the country. The courtiers of Great Xia, after the war, can choose a new monarch according to the merits of the war and the public opinion. Other! The country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and Zhao Shiyu, the prince of Hong, is specially canonized as the regent of Tuogu and temporarily takes the throne. My deathbed edict must not be violated, thank you! ”

After Wei Dong finished speaking, there was silence in the hall. All the courtiers looked at Prince Hong in disbelief. No one expected that Emperor Yuning would come to such a hand on his deathbed, and he actually asked the two princes to win the world with their military exploits. It is even said that a regent was canonized.

Prince Dezhang's face was pale, and Yu Ban's cheeks trembled a few times. Looking at Prince Hong, whose face was like a cold autumn, Yu couldn't help but say that you are Emperor Yuning, and he also put the old minister with a knife on his deathbed. When you are alive, you can't fight you, and after you die, you don't want to control this Great Xia again.

Kill! Must be killed! Yu Ban was ruthless, no matter whether this edict was true or not, he couldn't let Delong and Duan Lang leave Kyoto alive. Without competition, this edict is equivalent to abolishing the edict, see who can compete with Dezhang for the world!
