Chapter 195: Death
There was no sound in the entire dormitory, the breathing of the two people was very small, and the emperor seemed to know that his days were short, and after his body slid down, he let Yang Gonggong help himself up.
"I know you can't understand the decisions I made, and I don't ask you to forgive me, but now that your son is vying for the throne, you must listen to what I say."
Ning Guifei nodded, she took a deep breath, suppressed the sadness in her heart, at this moment she was facing the emperor instead of her husband, and took out the holy decree again from behind her, but the emperor still didn't look at it, and blocked it back with his hand.
Before he died, he was accompanied by only Ning Guifei, and no matter how true it was, it might become fake in the end, and the rest of the people would not easily believe them, since this was the case, it was better not to leave this will in the first place.
"Don't always think about taking this will to explain it to the ministers, there is not much information to tell them, now you sit down and listen to me."
The Emperor was clearly unable to sit still, he could feel his limbs slowly begin to lose control, he couldn't lift his hands, he couldn't touch the face of the woman he once loved.
"There is a holy decree from Fu Zheng, after I die, the things will be directly handed over to the hands of the families and ministers, you just go over and bring it here, don't send someone to interfere, if the prince dares to send someone to stop it, then take action."
Ning Guifei nodded, she remembered that her father had a good relationship with Fu Zheng, and if she extrapolated from time, the holy decree should have reached her father's hands at this moment, and the rest of the matter was not enough to worry about.
"Me."
"Don't talk, listen to me," the emperor coughed so badly that the phlegm in his lungs could not be coughed up, "the ministers could not listen to their words, the generals on the border could not be moved, those who could be transferred to the southwest should be transferred to the southeast, and those who could be transferred to the northwest should also be transferred to the northeast, all the original generals must fall out of their places, and the soldiers everywhere must be changed." ”
The little military power in Xue Muyan's hands can't be taken out at all, and he can't change the generals on the frontier, so he can only put them in their place for now, neither mobilizing nor killing them.
"If you have to do things on the face, the family can't be appeased, you must not kill after you take the throne, but some people can't help but face it, those people of the Chen family should move, you don't have to be polite, and a few servants from the household department took it out to kill chickens and monkeys, as for the Royal Forest Army, they are all children of the family, and they are controlled in their own hands, so they don't dare to move."
Ning Guifei knew that there were so many children of the family in the Imperial Forest Army, the emperor's words could no longer be spoken, the voice in his throat became louder and louder, the phlegm seemed to be spit out, and the cough became louder and louder, Gonggong Yang helped him up, patted his back gently, and finally spit out the phlegm.
The body still couldn't stand it, and fell, just like that, and never woke up again, so the concubine ordered the entire palace to be closed, and no one was allowed to send out the news that the emperor had died.
"Is the prince back? If he didn't come back, if there was any news in the capital, all the palace maids and eunuchs who were in service today would be killed. Ning Guifei closed her eyes, sealed all the people in the dormitory, ordered someone to bring the ice cubes and coffins that had been prepared long ago, and then ordered someone to move the emperor's body into it and seal it.
Xue Muyan saw that all the gates in front of him were blocked, and the people everywhere were ready, and they were secretly holding new flags, and he was very panicked, which was a sign that the emperor was gone.
"Wan'er, we need to hurry up," he didn't think he would be sad before, but when it came to this day, he still couldn't accept it, after all, in those days, he had also taught himself well, and he also told himself about the court.
Lu Xiaowan saw the logo on the hand of the secret guard, and guessed that the emperor should be gone, the system did not give any notice, and it has always been in the stage of plot development, and the emperor's death is a time period that plays a decisive role in this story.
"Xue Muyan, now is not the time to be sad, hurry back to the capital, I think the prince will soon know the news, even if Ning Guifei seals most of the news in the capital, it is impossible not to reveal it completely, after all, there are so many people in the palace, as long as Your Majesty has any movement, the Tai Hospital will know."
Lu Xiaowan had a rough guess about what was going to happen next, and with her limited riding skills, letting Xue Muyan enter the palace with her was tantamount to telling the prince that Xue Muyan had not stayed in the capital.
"The way we walked."
"No, it's the way you approached, I still take this road, there is a great possibility that the spies from all sides will smell the smell in the capital, Ning Guifei's bureau can't be bigger, you have to go back immediately and hold a state funeral."
He looked into the distance, he didn't have time to prepare, the fast horse had already been brought in, and after thinking for a while, he had to go to the capital one step ahead of Lu Xiaowan again.
"Don't worry about me, everything is counted, if something happens without you talking, I can handle it very well, not to mention that you look like a person with something?"
He turned back again and again, lowered the rope that led the horse, and kissed her on the cheek.
A trace of worry gradually came up in his mind, he was a little scared, walked forward for a while, and hurried back, ready to take the person away, and Mama stood in front of him.
"Lord Wang, Miss Lu's old slave will take care of it, you better go first." is in such a hurry, compared to something happening in the capital, the prince is the future emperor, and he can't delay the future because of the private relationship between men and women.
Even if Lu Xiaowan doesn't like Mama, she will agree with Mama's way of dealing with it, Xue Muyan will go back at this time to stabilize the situation in the capital, and they can make the following arrangements after they go back.
Before the two of them could take a look, Lu Xiaowan directly asked people to leave, she needed time to deal with the matter of the bandit mountain again, Xue Muyan's departure would give her a chance, and she would have better arrangements for the rest of the grandmother, such as escorting her mother to Jiangnan.
"Miss Lu, where are we going?"
The carriage turned around, and Mama didn't realize that she was taken out of direction, and when she wanted to go back, the back road was already blocked.
"Don't worry, Mama, he will handle the prince's affairs, and we will also do our things." The bandit mountain can't be moved by anyone, the prince can't, the army in the southeast won't be able to enter the capital without the bandit mountain, not to mention that it takes time to pass on the news, and the bandit mountain range is the most convenient.
A few secret guards came down from the tree, and they obeyed Lu Xiaowan's order, "Miss Lu, if we go back now, I'm afraid there will be some other inconveniences on the way." ”
"The capital is not far away, I don't want to go back, you go and transfer people, guard the bandit mountain, and don't allow any news to go back." The maid in the back already understood what Lu Xiaowan meant, so she directly knocked the person unconscious, put it in the carriage, and then went to a nearby farm, and a few people guarded the carriage to look at the surrounding movements.
Sure enough, as soon as Xue Muyan left, someone was eyeing her, and the carriage was turned over, and no important things were found, so Lu Xiaowan used the system to listen a little.
"Your Majesty has seen this Lu girl before, in case the holy decree is hidden in this Lu girl's body, our trip will not be in vain."
Lu Xiaowan was very surprised when she heard such words, where did they get the confidence to let the emperor put the holy decree on his body, and the most important thing is that the holy decree cannot be used by himself!
"What time is this, they would even think that the emperor would give such an important thing to themselves, could it be that the emperor had already chosen Xue Muyan."
Thinking that it is indeed possible, but the general direction given by the system will not change, the emperor will most likely still feel that Xue Muyan is more reliable in the end, and the things that the prince did later are indeed a little despicable.
[Eldest sister, the system will also change because of something, the emperor does have the idea of making Xue Muyan the emperor. 】
The great news means that the holy decree exists, if it is in the hands of the prince, a few spies will not come to him, the biggest possibility is that it is in the capital, and it has been obtained by Xue Muyan.
"The perfect news is always about making yourself happy!"
The current situation in the palace is very bad, Ning Guifei still hasn't blocked the news everywhere, and the rest of the people have been abandoned, and the Ning family can only find the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the funeral.
"Child, the prince has rushed back, no accident will come here tonight, what we have to do is to stabilize the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Doctor, you don't have to worry about the courtiers, I will take care of everything, this emperor I will let him be safe."
Ning Hao stood in front of the stage and looked at the minister who had brought him to see the emperor, the guards were bent on blocking there, and the other was blocking outside, and the Imperial Forest Army was also guarding outside to prevent anyone from breaking in.
He walked forward, just relying on a sword given by His Majesty back then, blocking it, the minister did not speak, and that Lord Dong knew that such a formation was the death of His Majesty.
"Lord Ning, what do you mean by this? Since His Majesty has died, he should let the Ministry of Rites and Si Tianjian prepare for the funeral, and now that he is not mourning, could it be that he is preparing to rebel? ”
"At such an old age, it is impossible to rebel, the adults say that Your Majesty has died, but there is evidence, otherwise it is to curse Your Majesty, use Your Majesty's body as a block, and behead according to the laws of our dynasty."
The Imperial Forest Army could see what Ning Hao meant, and directly dragged the person down, and there was a wail in the distance, and the ministers began to talk one after another, and no one dared to go forward and ask.
"Lord Ning, Your Majesty's body, as courtiers, we should be concerned, how can I still give a clear word, there are already rumors flying outside, and my heart is uneasy!"
Ning Hao sighed and ordered someone to open the palace door, the minister of the Ministry of Rites had already arrived, which meant that His Majesty would not last long.
"It's not a long time, do you want to go in?"
