When Yue Qingming returned to the East Palace, the people inside were running back and forth, like crazy, there were many carriages parked outside, all of them were important ministers in the court, and even Jiang Qianbai, who had already gone back, had returned here.

Yue Qingming looked at the chaotic scene, a little surprised, the news that the emperor was burned to death by the fire should not have spread yet, what are these people doing in the East Palace at this time?

Shan Wu hurriedly walked in front of Yue Qingming: "Miss Yue, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince instructed that if you come back, go back to the room immediately, now the East Palace is very chaotic, I am afraid that it will not be good for you." ”

Yue Qingming nodded: "Got it." ”

This kind of thing, Yue Qingming still understood, but Jade pushed her back to the room, and saw that the queen was already waiting for her inside.

"Qingming," the queen mother immediately walked up to her: "How is the situation outside?" Did you go to the Queen Mother and ask anything useful? Emperor he really has ......"

"The emperor is dead, and the charred body that was sent back to the East Palace is him."

The queen raised her hand to cover her mouth, the shock on her face was very obvious, although she didn't like the emperor, but she didn't think that the emperor's ending would be so embarrassing, as a dignified emperor, he was suddenly burned alive by the fire in the green building!

The queen mother frowned tightly and took many deep breaths before calming her breath: "What is the situation on the prince's side now?" The emperor's death leaked out? ”

"I've just come back, so I don't know."

However, looking at the current situation, nine times out of ten, the emperor was burned to death, otherwise those ministers would not have come here to see Jiang Qiancheng for no reason.

When Ye Xiuwen came over, the Empress Mother and Yue Qingming had worries written on their faces, and they wanted to go out to see the situation, but they were afraid that it would affect Jiang Qiancheng and Jiang Qianbai's decision-making, so they could only stay in the room and wait for the time being.

"Miss Yue, Queen Mother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now invites the two of you to visit his room."

Yue Qingming and the queen looked at each other: "Now? Aren't there still many ministers out there, and we didn't fit in the past? ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something else to tell you, those ministers are not in that room."

“…… Got it. ”

When Yue Qingming and the queen mother arrived at Jiang Qiancheng's room, he and Jiang Qianbai were discussing something with anxious looks, and when they saw them coming, they hurriedly looked at them.

Yue Qingming was a little puzzled: "What do you want to do with me and the queen?" ”

"I don't know how the emperor was burned to death has spread throughout the imperial city, and now everyone knows that there is no emperor in the imperial city, not only the East Palace, but also the outside!"

Yue Qingming subconsciously frowned, if he didn't guess wrong, spreading the news should also be something that Gonggong He and the Queen Mother did together, and they had planned it early on!

Jiang Qiancheng said: "It doesn't matter how the news spreads, the most important thing now is how to deal with this matter, those ministers outside are here to let me ascend the throne!" ”

“……”

The room suddenly fell silent, Jiang Qiancheng is the crown prince, is there anything wrong with him taking the emperor's place and becoming the emperor? Why does this tone sound a little unpleasant?

The queen mother took a deep breath and said calmly: "The matter has come to this point, it is the most reliable way for you to go out and control the overall situation, you are the crown prince, it is logical to take over the emperor's position, and you must not let those villains take the opportunity to seize power and set off a bloody storm in the imperial city!" ”

"But in this situation, what should I do? I'm not ready to be emperor yet! ”

"No emperor is ready to be an emperor before ascending the throne, this kind of thing must be overcome by yourself!"

“……”

Jiang Qiancheng pursed his lips, a little speechless.

Yue Qingming also agreed with the queen's words, she said: "Jiang Qiancheng, it's not something you hesitate about now, what we have been planning for so long has finally come to fruition, you don't want this result to be snatched away by others, right?" ”

Jiang Qianbai also patted Jiang Qiancheng on the shoulder: "Don't worry, we are all on your side, it will be fine!" ”

The news of the emperor's death spread throughout the imperial city within a day, and the people in the imperial city were terrified.

The next day, the ministers in the court also had their own opinions, one side thought that the prince Jiang Qiancheng should succeed to the throne, and the other side thought that he was not qualified enough to nominate a respected minister to be the regent to manage the affairs.

This matter is very noisy, the originally serious hall of the upper dynasty is full of all kinds of arguments at this time, Jiang Qiancheng is also the first time to see such a scene, a little dazed, several times the opening was interrupted, some ministers who rely on their seniority do not take Jiang Qiancheng in their eyes at all.

"The Queen Mother has arrived—"

The originally noisy hall suddenly quieted down, and everyone consciously retreated to both sides, bowing their heads respectfully and saluting the Queen Mother who walked in: "See the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!" ”

The Queen Mother walked to the dragon chair and waved her hand: "Flatten!" ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother glanced at the ministers, with a smile on her face, she had seen such a scene of dispute twice, and she had long been used to it.

"Now that the emperor has died, according to the rules, the crown prince Jiang Qiancheng should succeed to the throne of the emperor, and you don't have to argue anymore!"

Immediately, a minister came out: "But the Queen Mother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has only been the crown prince for a long time, if he succeeds to the throne so casually, is it a little inappropriate?" ”

"That's right, Queen Mother, for the sake of the overall situation, you should stabilize the overall situation first, and the succession to the throne will be talked about later!"

The Queen Mother sneered: "What do you mean by this? Do you think that our royal crown prince can't be the emperor and can't handle the current affairs? ”

"Wechen doesn't dare."

"If you don't dare, then don't talk nonsense here! The mourning family thinks that the crown prince should succeed to the throne of the emperor and sit in the emperor's position to deal with important matters, do any of you still have any objections? ”

As soon as the Queen Mother's words came out, no one dared to talk nonsense, and the silence in the hall was a little weird.

Jiang Qiancheng and Jiang Qianbai looked at each other, very surprised, in their cognition, the Queen Mother has always been a very kind grandmother, and now this majestic appearance that makes everyone surrender, they have seen it for the first time.

The Queen Mother walked in front of Jiang Qiancheng with a smile: "Prince, from now on, you will manage all the affairs of the Western Jin Dynasty, you can handle anything, on the day of enthronement, the mourning family will discuss with the Ministry of Rites, and then choose an auspicious day to hold an enthronement ceremony for you, how about it?" ”

"Just listen to the emperor's grandmother."
