On the top of the palace hall of Nanyuan Kingdom, the civil and military officials stood on top of the hall with a solemn face, led by the Nine Emperor Princes, who wore a formal suit and stood on top of the hall with an expressionless face.

When the national teacher walked into the main hall, the civil and military officials in the hall began to be restless.

The old prime minister stepped forward and respectfully saluted him and said: "Master of the country, the emperor died, as the so-called country cannot be without a king for a day, now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been abolished, and only the nine princes are left who are at the right age for the emperor to be the prince, I don't know when the national teacher will be crowned as the new emperor?" ”

"What the Prime Minister said is very true, the country cannot be without a king for a day, presumably the emperor should have made an edict before he died, and the national teacher should have taken out the edict and read it."

Xiang Guogong glanced at the Nine Emperor Princes, and then also walked out and said.

"Please read the edict and appoint a new monarch."

"Reconsideration."

The civil and military officials above the court stood up and said.

"Okay, then I'll read out the edict of the former emperor, first of all, the emperor's holy decree on the prince's rebellion."

Jun Liche looked at everyone, said in an indifferent voice, and then handed a prepared holy decree in his hand to the chief eunuch to read it.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, His Royal Highness the crown prince colluded with the queen, plotted rebellion, poisoned me, his heart can be punished, and now the decree is to abolish the position of the prince, and all those involved in this matter will be decided, and they will be decided."

After the chief eunuch read the holy decree, he retreated to the side of the national teacher.

"Next, I have another decree here, you can also read it."

Jun Liche handed him another holy decree.

He picked up the holy decree and glanced at it, his fingers trembled, but he continued to read it: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, the prince and concubine Rui of Shuoyue Kingdom have been verified to be the daughter of me and Concubine Ling, and today she is specially canonized as the emperor. ”

After the decree was read, the civil and military officials below were in an uproar.

"What? Prince Rui of Shuoyue Kingdom turned out to be the biological daughter of the emperor and Concubine Ling? But didn't Concubine Ling die in the Heavenly Prison of Shuoyue Country a long time ago?"

"He actually named Prince Rui as the emperor?? What's going on? ”

"Okay, don't talk about it anymore, the emperor did leave an edict to canonize the new emperor, but - just after the queen died, the jade seal suddenly disappeared, without the jade seal, how to canonize the new emperor? Therefore, now it is the top priority to find the jade seal of the country, the emperor died, the whole country mourned, the whole country held a national funeral for seven days, and the emperor was sent to the imperial tomb after seven days, and he retired from the dynasty. ”

When Jun Liche walked down the main hall, his gaze swept coldly over the Nine Emperor Princes, and the Nine Emperor Princes met his sharp eyes without fear.

"Master Guoshi, can you tell this prince whether the first emperor passed the throne to me?"

The Nine Emperor Princes lowered their voices as the National Master walked up to him, and asked softly in a tone that only the two of them could hear.

"The Nine Emperor Princes will find the jade seal early, and they will be able to know the content of the holy decree, if there is nothing else, I will retreat first."

Jun Liche said lightly, turned around and walked out of the hall without looking back.

In the palace of the Nine Emperors of Fengcheng.

It was already noon outside, and the palace was covered with heavy white curtains, and a figure lay on the chaise longue behind the curtains, raising the wine in the cup and taking a shallow sip.

"How's the investigation going? Did you find the jade seal? ”

His voice came faintly from behind the curtains.

Bai Qingyun stood in front of the curtain and said, "I have already searched the mansion of His Royal Highness the Prince, and I have also sent someone to search the queen's bedroom, but I still haven't found the jade seal." ”

"From what you see, where do you think this jade seal should be now?"

The voice of the person behind the curtain said lightly, and he couldn't hear his emotions at the moment.

"Will the emperor give that Prince Rui Princess Lin Qingwan?"

Bai Qingyun's face sank, and he suddenly said as if he thought of it.

"Since you can think of this layer, why didn't you search the courtyard of Prince Rui's Mansion? You're still waiting for me to call you, is your brain getting worse and worse? ”

The man behind the curtain suddenly spoke angrily, and then heard a "bang" as he threw the glass in his hand and fell to the ground.

"Yes, it's the subordinates who are careless, and the subordinates will immediately send someone to Prince Rui's mansion to investigate."

Bai Qingyun said, and withdrew, but there was a flash of hatred in his eyes, this person's temper was really as annoying as he wanted.

If it weren't for the fact that he was born above him, there would be no need for him to let him breathe and drink, and look at his face, he would one day ask him for these debts.

In the middle of the night, there were no stars and no moons, the sky was endless darkness, and the wind was howling outside, blowing fallen flowers all over the ground.

Prince Rui's Palace.

"Wan'er, what are your plans, you might as well tell me about it, and I'll help you analyze what to do next?"

Bai Luochen sat on the table of the Eight Immortals with White Jade Carving, put the sunspot in his hand on the chessboard, looked up at Lin Qingwan and asked.

"I don't have the slightest interest in the throne, but I'm worried that if the Nine Emperor Princes ascend to the throne, it will be detrimental to you, I heard that the national teacher said that you have a grudge against him?"

Lin Qingwan looked at him uncertainly and asked.

"Silly girl, it's good for you to think about this matter yourself, don't consider my factors, no matter what decision you make, I will support you, as for the grudge you said with the Nine Emperors, it's because I killed his beloved general on the battlefield."

Bai Luochen took Lin Qingwan's hand and landed Bai Zi on the chessboard, "Wan'er, you see, if you didn't hesitate just now, you would have won, so no matter what you do, don't worry too much, just follow the true thoughts in your own heart." ”

"By the way, I've always wanted to ask you, last time I saw someone next to the queen stabbing the sword into your body with their own hands, why did you come out unscathed."

Bai Luochen suddenly remembered the thrilling scene that day and asked puzzled.

"Oh, what you said about that, have you forgotten Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu is a half-dragon man, the dragon man is the best at illusion, and Xiao Wu, a half-dragon man, has the help of the Dragon Emperor, so I took him into the palace that day, the purpose is to let him use illusion to help me, so that the queen can confess her guilt in front of the emperor. ”

Mentioning this, Lin Qingwan couldn't help but show off proudly.

"It turns out that you insisted on taking Xiao Wu into the palace that day, it turned out to be this intention, my Wan'er, she is really smart, but this Xiao Wu's illusion is really good, and even I was deceived."

Bai Luochen looked at Lin Qingwan and said appreciatively.

While the two were talking, a figure suddenly flashed from under the window outside.
