Chapter 921: Succession
When King Ying heard this, his expression changed slightly, remembering the two volumes of holy decrees he had given to Yan Wuge before, and vaguely guessed that Yan Wuge was afraid that he was not justified enough, so he forged an edict to let him ascend the throne?
Yan Wuge ignored the reactions of these people, directly took out the two holy decrees from his sleeves and walked to the high platform, and said in a deep voice: "The ministers listen to the decree. ”
The courtiers below hesitated, and then they knelt down one after another.
Yan Wuge said lightly: "I heard that after listening to the words of the imperial doctor, my health is getting worse, I am afraid that it will be difficult to maintain order, and I am even more afraid of dying by accident. ”
King Ying instantly felt that something was wrong when he heard this holy decree, but unfortunately before he could speak, he listened to Yan Wuge say directly,
"Although there are sons under my knees, I do not enjoy the slightest kindness and filial piety, although I sit on the throne, but I am not happy, all the sons have a rebellious heart, unscrupulous means for power, only the prince of Dongshan ......"
Yan Wuge's voice was slightly interrupted, and his face showed a strange look, but he continued to read it in front of the courtiers in the palace.
"Only Yan Chengmin, the son of the king of Dongshan, bows deeply, and is gifted and intelligent, and has the image of an emperor, so he should inherit the unification ......"
"I want to pass him on his knees, as my own son, if I die, he will inherit the great cause and succeed to the throne."
After the holy decree was recited, the courtiers in the hall were full of disbelief, and King Ying raised his head even more: "Impossible, my father and the emperor still have a son and son, how can it be possible to inherit the ancestral business by the son of someone else?!" ”
Yan Wuge also had some doubts in his heart at this time, the content of this holy decree was completely different from what he had said to Ah Jiu at the beginning, but the holy decree was indeed given to him by Shen Junjiu.
Even if he had doubts in his heart, he didn't show it on his face.
Listening to King Ying's rebuttal, Yan Wuge raised his head and said lightly:
"The king of Dongshan is the son of the first emperor, and his majesty is a brother-in-law, and the son of the king of Dongshan is also a descendant of the royal family, and he has the blood of the Yan family in his body, so how can he say that the son of someone else comes from."
"Your Majesty not only left an edict to pass on the throne, but also left a will to succeed Yan Chengmin to his knees."
Yan Wuge said directly between words,
"You don't have to suspect that this king is cheating on the handwriting, if this king wants the throne, he can take it directly, without having to use such means."
"Wang Denian, Lin Sihai, both of you are the closest people to Your Majesty, and you have served him for many years, so you will definitely be able to judge that the handwriting and seal on this holy decree are genuine."
Wang Denian and Lin Sihai both stepped forward, Lin Sihai had already taken refuge in the King of the North, so naturally he would not refute it, and after taking a look, he said directly: "This is indeed His Majesty's handwriting, and the private seal and jade seal are complete." ”
Wang Denian's heart skipped a slight beat, and his eyes were extremely complicated when he looked at Lin Sihai.
He didn't know when his apprentice actually took refuge in the North King.
He has served Emperor Ming Qi for many years, and he is the closest chamberlain by his side, and he knows better than anyone whether Emperor Ming Qi left these two holy decrees.
Wang Denian stepped forward to hold the holy decree, and when he looked down, he recognized at a glance that the so-called edict was not written by Emperor Ming Qi......
After Wang Denian saw what was written above, he was instantly shocked.
This is clearly King Ying's handwriting, and the content is that King Ying promised to succeed the heir of the northern prince as his son and set him up as the prince to inherit the great cause.
He had seen King Ying's private seal, and he also knew King Ying's handwriting, which was all written by King Ying, and was also stamped with His Majesty's seal and jade seal.
