Ye Ruoxi knelt down with everyone, worshipping with everyone, her great demon finally ascended to that supreme position, stealing the great cause of the country, and succeeding perfectly!

Xuanyuan Yan held the holy decree in his hand, Kang Yuanbang knelt forward, and secretly stuffed the imperial seal in his hand into Ye Tianqing's hand, Ye Tianqing paused, not wanting the imperial seal to still be in Kang Yuanbang's hands.

He held the imperial seal above his head with both hands and presented it to Xuanyuan Yan.

Xuanyuan Yan stretched out his hand to take it in his hand, and asked Ye Tianqing in a low voice: "Is this the final decision?" ”

"Your Majesty, whatever the emperor wants, the ministers will definitely present it to the emperor with both hands!"

"Really?"

Xuanyuan Yan asked uncertainly, his voice was so low that only the few people kneeling at the front could hear it.

"Yes, even if the head of the emperor's important minister, the minister will cut it off with his own hands and present it to the emperor!"

Ye Tianqing's tone was calm and firm, without the slightest fluctuation.

"Please take your seat."

Xuanyuan Yan looked back at the dragon chair for a long time, and finally walked over with his feet raised, sat on the dragon chair, and stroked the hard and cold dragon pattern. The sensation coming from the palm of his hand made him feel like a dream.

"Flat."

"Your Majesty."

The ministers thanked him and got up, Ye Ruoxi got up and quietly retreated, Xuanyuan Yan's eyes fell on Ye Ruoxi's body, Ye Ruoxi smiled slightly and made a gesture, signaling her to go back and wait for Xuanyuan Yan.

The corners of Xuanyuanyan's lips curled, and he said silently: "Don't run around, wait for me." ”

Ye Ruoxi understood that above the court, at the emperor's enthronement ceremony, she should not stay here as a woman, so she retreated.

Ye Tianqing presided over the enthronement ceremony, cumbersome procedures, grand ceremonies, and the new monarch ascended the throne.

The enthronement ceremony was an important court ceremony for the new emperor to succeed to the throne, and the enthronement ceremony was supposed to be held on an auspicious day one month after the death of the first emperor. However, in order to stabilize the government and the opposition as soon as possible and let Xuanyuan Yan ascend the throne, Ye Tianqing did not announce the news of Gong Qingtian's death, but concealed it and pushed Xuanyuan Yan to ascend the throne first.

Yesterday, the ministers were still worshipping Gong Qingtian on the Jinluan Palace, so no one thought that Gong Qingtian supported for a while, and he died without even going back to the palace.

After preparing for many days, on the day of the enthronement ceremony, the ministers were still busy, Xuanyuan Yan was like a puppet, and was arranged to change into the emperor's dragon robe and crown, and the ceremonial official whispered to Xuanyuan Yan next to him about the etiquette and procedures that Xuanyuan Yan should perform.

Xuanyuan Yan had been silent, watching all this happen with cold eyes, watching Ye Tianqing and the ministers busy arranging.

Xuanyuan Yan walked behind Xuanyuan Yan, personally carried the crown for Xuanyuan Yan on the top of his head, and carefully brought it to Xuanyuan Yan.

"Your Majesty, congratulations to the Emperor, let your brother bring this crown to the Emperor himself."

"Tenth brother, do you have nothing to say to me?"

Xuanyuan smiled: "The emperor should call himself 'I', the courtiers have finally waited until today, and the courtiers are the most."

The big wish is to bring this crown to the emperor with his own hands, watch the emperor ascend the throne, and worship the emperor. ”

"Don't have anything to say?"

"The emperor doesn't need to worry, everything has been arranged, and after ascending the throne, you will be the king of a country in the Tanglin Kingdom."

"Really? Where is the father? When I come back, I should go to see my father first and let Ye Tianqing come over. ”

"Yes, come here, pass on the right to see each other."

Someone went to spread the word to Ye Tianqing, and Xuanyuan Yan waved his hand to rebuke everyone, leaving only Xuanyuan Yan.

"Tenth brother, today was arranged a long time ago, when did it start?"

"From the moment I received the news of the emperor's glorious return, the right minister began to secretly arrange, but at that time, the ministers thought that the right minister was arranging to welcome the emperor's return, and they didn't know that they were arranging the emperor's enthronement ceremony."

Xuanyuan Yan looked at the dazzling dragon robe and crown on his body from the mirror, and the dazzling and gorgeous light revealed an endless chill.

"Don't you have anything else to say? Or, have you already followed Ye Tianqing's orders? ”

Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment before replying: "Your Majesty, the courtier's brother is the prince's son and the royal bloodline, although Ye Tianqing's status is noble, he is not qualified to order the courtier's brother to do anything." The only one who can make his subordinates obey his orders is the emperor, and the emperor doesn't have to worry about anything, and from then on, the Tanglin Kingdom will be the emperor's world. ”

"Minister, Ye Tianqing has come to see the emperor."

Ye Tianqing walked in from outside the door and first raised his voice to ask for a meeting.

Xuanyuan Yan didn't look back, looking at the elegant and noble figure kneeling behind him from the mirror.

"The ministers see the emperor, and the emperor summons the ministers, what is the will?"

Xuanyuan Yan was silent, looking at Ye Tianqing who was kneeling on the ground behind him from the mirror, with a respectful attitude and no lack of etiquette.

He was silent for a long time, Ye Tianqing knelt behind him without moving, and he also didn't speak as if waiting for his will.

"Tenth brother, step aside."

"Brother quit."

Regulus bowed and stepped back, closing the door with his hand.

Ye Tianqing lowered his head and closed his eyes slightly while waiting for Xuanyuan Yan to speak.

A pair of slender hands stretched out, and Xuanyuan Yan walked up to Ye Tianqing and bent down and stretched out his hand to help him up.

"Why is my father-in-law so polite, I am allowed to enter the court in the future.

"The old minister didn't dare to trespass, thank the emperor for his love, and ask the emperor to take back his fate."

A deep smile bloomed on Xuanyuan Yan's face: "I sent a letter back to my father-in-law, why did my father-in-law insist that I come back after seeing it?" ”

"Your Majesty, the emperor is the important task of the Tanglin Kingdom, he is the world, the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, how can the emperor not come back. This Tanglin Kingdom is the emperor's Tanglin Kingdom, the world is the emperor's world, and the old minister only waits for the emperor's enthronement ceremony to be completed, so he asks the emperor to allow the old minister to resign and return to his hometown. ”

Ye Tianqing raised his head, and there was deep sadness and sincerity in his eyes.

"Father-in-law is looking at me

Can't help it? ”

"The old minister didn't dare to have this intention, the old minister has been in this position for more than 20 years, and he should also retreat bravely. Your Majesty, after you ascend the throne, you should have courtiers that you want to reuse. ”

"Where is my father?"

"Your Majesty, please go to the emperor after he ascends the throne, today is the emperor's enthronement ceremony, everything please emperor After the enthronement ceremony, the old minister will return to the emperor and ask the emperor for permission."

"Enthronement ......"

Xuanyuan Yan repeated, slowly pacing in the room, and now, Ye Tianqing had presented the throne with both hands in front of him, and he still had a feeling that he couldn't see through Ye Tianqing.

"What should I do when I ascend the throne?"

"Your Majesty, you are the king of a country, the supreme of the world, you can do whatever you want."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Not necessarily!"

Xuanyuan Yan said in a cold voice.

Ye Tianqing slowly knelt down: "Please make it clear to the emperor." ”

"I can't even get an audience with my father, how can my father-in-law explain it? Before I ascended the throne, shouldn't I go to see my father? ”

"Your Majesty, after the emperor ascends the throne, let's cure the sins of the old ministers. Please Emperor, ascend the throne immediately! ”

Xuanyuan Yan turned around and sat down, stared at Ye Tianqing and said with a smile: "Even if I ascend the throne, I have to follow my father-in-law's arrangement, there is no shirk, isn't it?" ”

Ye Tianqing straightened his body, and the corners of his lips curled up to reveal an elegant smile: "The emperor said yes, even if it is, it is not too late to come to treat the crimes of the old ministers after the emperor ascends the throne, and the old ministers are waiting for the emperor to surrender at any time." Today is the auspicious day for the emperor to ascend the throne, please read the old minister to prepare for the emperor day and night, and finally let the old minister arrange this last time for the emperor, and allow the old minister to take the emperor to sit on the dragon chair and take over the world. ”

"What happened yesterday and last night, do you think you can hide it from you?"

"Your Majesty, you should call yourself 'I', now you are not the crown prince, you are the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom."

"Ye Tianqing, my father-in-law, do you have to ascend the throne today?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, please ask for your permission."

Ye Tianqing's attitude was resolute, and his gaze looked directly at Xuanyuan Yan without evasion.

Xuanyuan Yan got up and took a few deep breaths: "As you wish, arrange it." ”

"Your Majesty."

Ye Tianqing got up, stretched out his hand to hold Xuanyuan Yan's arm, looked at Xuanyuan Yan for a moment and said with a smile: "More than twenty years ago, the minister personally put on a dragon robe for the emperor's father and watched him ascend the throne. Today, more than 20 years later, the minister does not want to have this honor to be able to personally arrange the dragon robe for the emperor again and send the emperor to the throne. ”

He bent down to carefully arrange the dragon robe for Xuanyuan Yan, tied the unfinished dragon robe, and there was no wrinkle in the arrangement, and personally supported Xuanyuan Yan's hand with his arm and took it out of the room.

First in the Jinluan Hall once again promulgated the edict, indicating that the emperor is the "true son of heaven", the scholar will hold out the edict, and the Ministry of Rites will hold the edict to the lower steps, and hand over the gift

&

nbsp; The officials of the ministry put it in the cloud disk, and the people of Luan Yiwei jointly escorted Xuanyuan Yan to the Taimiao Temple to worship heaven and earth and sacrifice to the ancestors.

Announce the heaven and earth, worship the ancestors and return to the palace.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu invited Xuanyuan Yan to descend to the Jinluan Palace, and officials at all levels saluted.

After the ceremony, the officials are in place, and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites is invited to take the throne of the emperor again. Xuanyuan Yan ascended to the throne that is, the emperor's throne, the band played, the bells and drums rang, showing the world, and the new monarch ascended the throne.

A set of cumbersome and grand ceremonies, Ye Tianqing has reduced some unnecessary details and side details, but the necessary ceremonies are still indispensable, he doesn't want Xuanyuan Yan to leave any regrets when he ascends the throne, plus the victory in the war with Risheng Kingdom, the celebration ceremony is extremely grand and grand.

Xuanyuan Yan sat on the dragon chair, high above the Danqi, looking down on the ministers standing on the left and right below through the string of beads hanging from the crown.

Led by the few remaining princes, followed by Ye Tianqing standing at the front of the ministers, looking at him with a long and deep gaze.

That kind of gaze is like a father watching his son grow up and become a talent, with relief.

"Right Phase."

"The minister is here."

Ye Tianqing came out of the class and bowed.

"After the ceremony, what else is going on?"

"Your Majesty, the emperor has been fighting for many days, and the dragon body is tired after returning from a long journey, please go back to the palace to rest."

Xuanyuan Yan exhaled a breath of turbidity slightly, got up and got off the dragon chair.

The eunuch shouted to retreat from the court, and the ministers knelt down to send them off.

Xuanyuan Yan's figure disappeared, and the ministers got up, exchanged glances with each other, whispered something to move, and retreated.

"Your Highness."

Ye Tianqing called out to Xuanyuan in a low voice and bowed down.

Xuanyuan put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "What do you think about the right minister?" ”

"His Royal Highness is serious, and the minister wants to ask His Royal Highness to arrange one thing."

"Right Minister, please."

"Please ask His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness to arrange the aftermath of the first emperor's great trip, and set up a mourning hall to worship in three days."

Xuanyuan's body shook, and grabbed Ye Tianqing's wrist: "What did you say?" ”

There was deep sadness in Ye Tianqing's eyes: "This matter, the minister has been hiding from the emperor and His Royal Highness, and he went after the first emperor retired from the court yesterday." In order to welcome the new monarch to the throne, the minister suppressed this matter, which was the will of the first emperor, and now the minister informed His Highness, please ask His Highness to arrange it. ”

"Ye Tianqing, bold, how dare you hide this matter?"

Ye Tianqing smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, as wise as you, you should understand why the old minister did this, if you announce this matter before the master returns to the city and enters the palace to ascend the throne, what will be the consequences?" Now, the minister went to meet the emperor and confessed in front of the emperor, and the affairs of the first emperor were entrusted to His Royal Highness. ”

Xuanyuan let go of his hand: "This is my father's last order, and the emperor will not blame him, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and there are many things that need to be assisted." Right Prime Minister, the emperor is the son-in-law, and he should do his best for the emperor. ”

Ye Tianqing

Stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Your Highness, can you know that these hands of the ministers, after the emperor left Jian'an City, how many ministers and their families have been stained with the blood?" It can be known that from yesterday's great trip to today, how many people have the ministers killed? Scarlet Chang'an Street, everything is all that the minister can do for the emperor in the end. ”

"I always thought that I would be interested in that position."

There was a chill in Xuanyuan's scorching eyes, staring at Ye Tianqing.

"If the minister is interested, there will be no emperor ascending the throne today, Your Highness, the minister's heart to the first emperor and the emperor has never changed, thirty years of monarchs and ministers, the minister should go!"

Ye Tianqing bowed, turned around and walked towards the harem.

Xuanyuan stared at Ye Tianqing for a long time, until Ye Tianqing's figure disappeared into the splendid palace.

"Your Majesty, the right side asks to see you."

The eunuch knelt on the ground and replied, Ye Ruoxi was personally unloading a gorgeous burden for Xuanyuan Yan, taking off the crown and taking off the dragon robe on Xuanyuan Yan's body, so that Xuanyuan Yan could relax.

"Biography."

Xuanyuan Yan glanced back at Ye Ruoxi.

"Yes, I'll go first, let's talk."

Ye Ruoxi put a cup of ginseng tea in Xuanyuan Yan's hand: "Drink a cup of ginseng tea first to refresh yourself, I'll wait later." ”

"Go first, I'll be there later."

"Let's ......"

Ye Ruoxi suddenly leaned over and quickly landed a loud kiss on Xuanyuan Yan's cheek, leaving a string of crisp laughter and running out proudly from behind.

Xuanyuan Yan stretched out his hand helplessly, and landed on the place where Ye Ruoxi had just been kissed on his face: "Have you ever seen a queen who has no manners and rules than her?" ”

Zhao Qian smiled and said nothing, in his opinion, having a queen like Ye Ruoxi is the blessing of the emperor and their blessing.

Several old monsters and the people around Xuanyuan Yan had already been arranged to be by his side, and this was the only thing that made Xuanyuan Yan feel a little reassured.

Ye Tianqing bowed his head and walked in and knelt down to worship, Xuanyuan Yan didn't wait for Ye Tianqing to kneel down and reached out to help Ye Tianqing up: "It's not above the court, so you don't have to be so polite." ”

"Your Majesty."

Ye Tianqing bowed his head and stood respectfully on one side.

"What's the other arrangement?"

Ye Tianqing fell to his knees and knelt down: "The minister asks the emperor for his guilt, and the minister deserves death." ”

Xuanyuan Yan Mo fluctuated: "What is the crime?" ”

"The first emperor has died, and the minister has been hiding it, so please ask the emperor to punish the crime."

"What?"

Xuanyuan Yan Huo Ran got up, has his father gone?

"When?"

"The emperor is groomed, yesterday ......"

Ye Tianqing bowed his head and carefully replied to Xuanyuan Yan about the events from yesterday to today, and bowed down: "Please punish the emperor, the old minister asks the emperor for his guilt, and accepts the guilt in front of the emperor." ”

Xuanyuan Yan sat down weakly: "I still don't."

Did you see your father for the last time? ”

"Your Majesty, the body of the first emperor has been preserved, and the minister wants to wait for the emperor to come back to bid farewell to the body of the first emperor, and then handle the funeral for the first emperor three days later."

"Where? Take me there. ”

Ye Tianqing got up: "Your Majesty, please come with your ministers." ”

Somewhere in a remote palace in the palace, the guards were strict, and the cold air was wafting with endless chill, Ye Tianqing led the way, Xuanyuan Yan followed, and Zhao Qian and others followed.

"Your Majesty, the body of the first emperor will be kept inside, and when the emperor says goodbye and sees the last face of the first emperor, he will cover the golden coffin."

Xuanyuan Yan's body was trembling slightly, his mood was complicated and indescribable, and his feet stumbled slightly.

Ye Tianqing stretched out his hand to hold Xuanyuan Yan's arm, and took Xuanyuan Yan into the cold room, because it was the early winter season, and there was no temperature in the room, revealing a bit of cold. The lights around were bright, and someone had already learned that Ye Tianqing had brought the emperor over and lit all the lights in the room.

An old eunuch knelt outside the door to greet him.

Xuanyuan Yan pushed Ye Tianqing away and rushed into the room, in the golden coffin, Gong Qingtian lay quietly inside. The luxurious and gorgeous dragon robe on his body brought out his thin face as white as paper, dull and fleshless.

With a thin body, the dragon robe appeared a little wide, covering his thin body.

"Father's ......"

Xuanyuan Yan knelt in front of the golden coffin with a long pout, grabbed the golden coffin tightly with both hands, and looked at the old man in the coffin with complicated eyes, who was once the supreme of the Tanglin Kingdom.

"The emperor's festival mourns and changes, before the first emperor leaves, he used secret medicine to stimulate the last trace of vitality, and the court asked the ministers to read the edict in the Jinluan Palace, paving the way for the emperor to ascend the throne. Your Majesty, if you have any questions now, you can ask them. In front of the body of the former emperor, the minister swore that he would never dare to say a lie. ”

Ye Tianqing knelt behind Xuanyuan Yan and whispered a few words.

Xuanyuan Yan felt that he had a lot to ask, and he choked up for a while, unable to say a word.

Facing Gong Qingtian's body, Baiwei, all kinds of past, many questions blocked in his throat, and he didn't know what to ask first.

Ye Tianqing understood Xuanyuan Yan's feelings, knelt behind Xuanyuan Yan silently, stared at the old man in the golden coffin for a long time, who was also a teacher and a friend, and a gentleman and a father, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

After a long time, Xuanyuan Yan stared back at Ye Tianqing coldly, and at this time he realized that Ye Tianqing lowered his head, and the ground was wet, and there were crystals dripping from Ye Tianqing's low-hanging eyes on the ground, wetting the ground.

"Ye Tianqing."

"Your ......, here."

Ye Tianqing's figure trembled weakly, bowing his head and refusing to raise it.

"Look up at me."

Ye Tianqing suddenly raised his head, his face full of tears.

"Do you cry too?"
