Seeing that his remarks were really supported by many people, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu held his head high and became more and more confident.

Mu Yunyi keenly perceived the killing intent in his younger brother's eyes, secretly patted his hands, and then said to Shangshu: "What do you mean, my lord, that the prince did something wrong?"

"Exactly, the so-called minister of the Son of Heaven means that only the Son of Heaven can decide life and death, how can the son of the world have the right to dispose of the courtiers? The so-called improper name is not good. ”

"According to you, if Yun Duo is right, everything will be free of controversy?"

"That's nature." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu followed Mu Yunyi's words, and even smiled disdainfully in his heart: What if Mu Ting was the prince back then? Later, didn't he become Prince Shun and bow down to the first emperor Mu Ling? And the son of Prince Shun is just the son of the world, and even the prince is not, so where does the power of the emperor come from?

At this time, Mu Yunyi, with a trace of cunning light in his eyes, took out a yellow sermon from his cuff and said, "So, is this thing enough to prove it?" ”

The Ministry of Rites and everyone present all set their eyes on the things in Mu Yunyi's hands, and everyone present knew that the bright and dangling square cloth embroidered with dragon patterns was only the imperial cloth used when the emperor decreed it.

So what is the content of this holy decree in Princess Anhe's hand at this time? And from whom? Is it the first emperor Mu Ling or the Wanli emperor Mu Xiao?

Mu Yunyi soon revealed the answer, she unfolded the imperial cloth with both hands, showed it to everyone, and shouted: "The thing in the hands of this palace is the edict of the emperor's grandfather during his lifetime, and it is clearly written on it that after the emperor's grandfather is a hundred years old, the crown prince Mu Ting will inherit the unification of the Western Dome." ”

After Ann and Princess finished speaking, the surroundings exploded in an instant.

"There is still this holy decree!"

"Prince Shun was the crown prince back then, and it is understandable for him to inherit the throne!"

Some people were shocked by the existence of the holy decree, and some people questioned the authenticity of the holy decree, and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites immediately asked: "The first emperor who succeeded to the throne was the first emperor, and the lower officials were stupid and puzzled, since this decree existed, why didn't it appear in front of the world early?" ”

"Heh, how did Mu Ling's throne come to be in the first place, isn't it clear to Lord Shangshu?"

This rhetorical question, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was speechless, and he patronized to refute Mu Yunyi, but accidentally brought up the topic of the succession of the first emperor. The people of Xiqiong know in their hearts that Mu Ling's throne is not justified, and even many people are indispensable to the secret operation of Mu Ling and his party.

After Mu Yunyi paused for a while, he opened his mouth again: "When the emperor's grandfather was sick, the father of the palace was standing outside, Mu Ling took the opportunity to take control of the inner palace, and the emperor's grandfather saw that the situation was not right, so he wrote an edict at the last moment of his life and handed it to the imperial grandmother. Later, the emperor's grandfather Bintian, Mu Ling temporarily took care of the government, and sat on the dragon chair in order to justify his name, he deliberately arranged false news to return to the court, saying that my father, the prince at that time, Mu Ting, died on the battlefield, and it was at a time of internal and external troubles, the country could not be without a king for a day, and Mu Ling was the only candidate to succeed to the throne at that time, so the courtiers all supported him to succeed to the throne as the emperor. ”

Mu Yunyi walked to the old ministers who had experienced the succession turmoil at that time in the front row, and while spreading out the holy decree to them for a closer look, he said in a deep tone and earnestly: "You are all old ministers who have gone through several dynasties, and you should also remember the situation at that time clearly, the situation is dangerous, my father's life and death are unknown, and Mu Ling is already in power, if the imperial grandmother took the liberty of taking out the holy decree at that time, not only could not expose Mu Ling's conspiracy and evil intentions, but would give him a chance to destroy this only evidence, so the imperial grandmother hid this edict for one day." This spark reappeared in the world at the right time. ”

When the ministers heard this, they all nodded knowingly, indeed, if the Empress Dowager directly showed this edict in that situation, it would be a hard hit, and even lead to death, the Empress Dowager was not greedy for life and afraid of death, but once she was not careful, the West Dome would be ruined, so she had been wronged for many years, in order to protect this edict and wait for the day when the chaos was set right and the truth was revealed.

"It's a pity that the imperial grandmother was poisoned by Xi Ruyan's mother and son and died a few months ago," Speaking ......of this, Mu Yunyi's eyes were red, full of hatred, "The imperial grandmother couldn't wait for this day before her death, so the palace will reveal everything today, so that the imperial grandmother's spirit in the sky can be blinded!" ”

Everyone else looked at Mu Yunyi's sharp gaze, but only Mu Yunduo and Meng Li cared about Mu Yunyi's trembling hands in her sleeves. Just when Meng Li couldn't help but want to walk to her, Mu Yunduo had already held Mu Yunyi's hand.

Feeling the temperature from his younger brother's palm, Mu Yunyi's violently undulating chest sank.

"The handwriting of the edict is left by the pen of the emperor's father, and it clearly leaves the seal of the jade seal, and the courtiers can compare and identify."

In the midst of the scene, the old ministers of the Wanli Emperor Dynasty stepped forward, including the Taibao who accompanied Emperor Mu Yunyi's grandfather, and the bachelors who served him with pen and ink, and the ministers who sorted out the chapters and ink for the Wanli Emperor, not to mention that this Yuxi mark is difficult to fake, but they will know that the handwriting is true at a glance.

"The edict in the hands of the princess is indeed the handwriting of Emperor Wanli." Lord Taibao, who has been in the palace since he was a child, saw his handwriting again many years after Emperor Wanli returned to heaven, and it was difficult to suppress the excitement in his heart, and even knelt down directly in front of the imperial edict.

At this moment, where are there still people who are not familiar with the current situation, the people of the entire Yuehuatai, from the princes and nobles, down to the palace maids, have knelt down to the edict in the hands of An and the princess, except for the Ministry of Rites, stiffened their backs and confronted Mu Yunyi.

Mu Yunyi solemnly opened his mouth: "According to the holy order of the emperor's grandfather, the throne should be inherited by the father of the palace, but the whereabouts of the father are unknown now, so the position of the crown prince is ......" Saying, Mu Yunyi held his younger brother's hand and raised it high, "It should be inherited by Mu Yunduo, the eldest son of the former prince!" ”

The next moment, everyone present bowed deeply to Mu Yunduo.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu looked around and saw that the people around him had also turned to the ground one after another, and suddenly his heart swelled up, pointing at them and shouting: "You, you people who see the wind and steer the rudder...... Pathetic, pathetic! ”

However, no matter how insulting the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was, no one in the Xi family stood up at the moment, and they couldn't wait to bury their heads in the ground.

Looking at the embarrassed, angry, and isolated Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Mu Yunyi chuckled, and said to him quietly: "Dare to ask Lord Shangshu, can it be regarded as justified now?" ”

"This official is just for the sake of the discipline and etiquette of the Western Firmament, and now that Princess Anhe has the edict of the ancestors, the official has nothing to say, if you want to kill or chop, listen to it."

"Then Lord Shangshu, what should I do in the face of the imperial grandfather's edict?"

Seeing that his general trend was gone, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu finally stopped resisting, and knelt on the ground with a "poof".

Mu Yunyi nodded with satisfaction, and walked towards the side of the Ministry of Rites step by step.

And the Ministry of Rites Shangshu also closed his eyes appointedly at this moment.
