The Queen Mother burst into tears in an instant, closed her eyes, and tears slipped from the corners of her eyes onto the pillow.

Concubine Chen smiled and picked up the palace lamp on the side and lit the curtain on the side.

Soon the entire imperial study was in flames.

When Yuan Feng arrived, the fire had not yet burned, but he did not let anyone save him, nor did he let anyone stop him, he just watched the entire imperial study turn into ashes in a fire.

The common people all looked in the direction of the palace and saw the flames soaring into the sky, and they were all a little uneasy.

Many mansions, seeing this, became anxious, that direction is the emperor's imperial study!

Could it be that something happened to the palace?

Some mansions immediately sent people to inquire about the news, some people packed up and let the juniors in the family leave, and some people closed their doors.

Above the main hall.

Li Chengde sat in this coveted position, looked around the entire hall, and looked condescendingly at everyone kneeling below.

"Back to the emperor, the imperial study has been burned down, and the subordinates also found the body of Emperor Qianyuan in the imperial study, as well as the body of the Queen Mother, Concubine Chen, and the bodies of the prince and Prince Lian are also among them, it seems that the Queen Mother killed the emperor, Prince Lian, and then set fire to the imperial study and committed suicide."

As soon as these words came out, many people gasped.

I didn't expect the emperor, Prince Lian, and the crown prince to die!

Even the Queen Mother is dead, so who is left in the entire royal family?

Li Chengde didn't care about the death or life of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother wouldn't have lived long, and it was estimated that it would only be in these two days.

What he really cares about is the six princes, as well as Lu Qingrong.

He glanced at Yuan Feng deeply, Yuan Feng knew what Li Chengde was going to ask, and shook his head slightly at him.

There was no trace of the Six Princes and Lu Qingrong, and he had already followed what his master said, looking for the secret passage in the palace.

But the inside of the secret passage is very complicated, and many of the exits have been blocked, and I don't know where the exit of the secret passage is, maybe the six princes and Mrs. Rong have already left the palace at this time.

Li Chengde's eyebrows furrowed, this secret passage in the palace, others don't know that he knows.

The reason why he knew was because his biological mother had told him that there was a secret passage leading to the outside of the palace in this palace, which was built in the imperial study.

So that one day, someone will be able to break into the palace and get out through the secret passage.

He put Lu Qingrong in the palace, the reason why he was not worried was because he knew where the secret passage was, and he also knew the exit of the secret passage, even if they left through the secret passage, he would be able to block people, but he didn't expect it.

It's been so many years, maybe the emperor has already changed the exit and entrance of the secret passage.

After all, it is something left over from the previous dynasty, some things can be kept, but some things are not necessary.

He was careless, but that's okay.

"The whole city is searched, and all those who have a relationship with the Xuanguo Mansion are all monitored."

We must not let them leave alive, although the vicinity of the capital has been controlled by him, but the other forces of the Dayu Dynasty have not yet been controlled, and we can't startle the snake at the moment.

In short, there can be no accidents until he ascends the throne.

Yuan Feng instantly understood, and hung his head to promise.

The actions of the master and servant fell in the eyes of the officials in the audience, and many officials looked at each other, now that the emperor and the queen mother and the two best princes are dead, what is the use of them insisting like this?

As a result, many old ministers who were still hesitant took the initiative to stand on the side of obedience.

And there are only those who have not surrendered here, Prime Minister Li, Lord Fang, Lu Wensong, as well as Jiang Zihuai and several princes of the Zhao family, so that most of the courtiers in the court have already surrendered to Li Chengde.

What is strange is that this Prime Minister Li Chengde is Li Chengde's father, and this time he actually stood on the opposite side of his son, which is really puzzling.

From the moment Li Chengde sat in that position, or from the moment Li Chengde stepped into this court, Prime Minister Li Cheng's eyes have never shifted to him.

Many things were beyond his expectations, he didn't expect that his son would be the pearl of the previous dynasty, has he looked away for so many years?

He calculated so much, and finally got to this point, but he was planted in the hands of his son.

And he is the son he despises the most, how can he be embarrassed, how can he be worthy of his ancestors?

Prime Minister Li is not as others think, he knows the character of this son, even if he begs for mercy, he will definitely not let him go in the end, nor will he let go of the Li family, instead of kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, it is better to carry it to the end and leave a good name.

He also has a grandson at the border gate, and if Li Chengde is overthrown one day, he can also leave a good name for his grandson.

At that time, the new emperor will definitely reuse his grandson, so that the wealth of the Li family can also continue.

Prime Minister Li Cheng's whole mind is on the continuation of the Li family's wealth, and his back is very straight, like an immortal pine.

It impressed the people around him, although Prime Minister Li Cheng was calculating, he was not ambiguous in the face of major rights and wrongs.

Li Chengde was drinking tea on it and saw this scene, and just sneered.

"It's okay today anyway, you adults go back first, remember to keep your mouth shut, I will be the emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom in two days, and please don't play any tricks."

Those courtiers who had already obeyed Li Chengde naturally nodded again and again, for fear of angering him and putting his life at risk.

As for Prime Minister Li Chengxiang and others, Li Chengde didn't want to say more to them, but just signaled Han Kang to detain them.

Soon the imperial court posted notices, detailing dozens of major sins of Emperor Qianyuan, arrogance and lasciviousness, greed for power, making the people miserable, and so on.

also killed the first prince, that is, the biological son of the queen mother.

Finally killed by the Queen Mother, the interesting story of the palace has always been a folk anecdote, the people saw the notice after showing an uproar, and then the notice wrote that Li Chengde, his mother was the princess of the first dynasty, in order to save his life married Li Chengxiang.

He was an orphan of the previous dynasty, and now Emperor Qianyuan has caused the people to live poorly, so he complied with the will of heaven to preside over the overall situation.

And he still has the heirloom jade seal in his hand, you must know that the Dayu Dynasty is not recognized by some people now, just because there is no heirloom jade seal in this Qianyuan Emperor.

The jade seal has gone through several dynasties, and it is a symbol of the throne.

But for some reason, this heirloom jade seal disappeared back then, and now it suddenly appears, doesn't it mean that this Li Chengde is the son of destiny?

But there are also some suspicions, and most people think that Li Chengde is a usurper of the dynasty, and the people are instantly polarized, some people support Li Chengde, and some people do not.
