Chapter 14: The dust has settled
At this time, in the Millennium Palace, Wu Guijun and Jiang Yan were discussing how to find the jade seal and control the situation in the palace. Before the two could discuss a countermeasure, news came from the other side of Hanyang Palace that Emperor Hui Sheng had died!
Jiang Yan opened her mouth slightly, even though she knew that Emperor Hui Sheng would not survive tonight, but when she heard the news, her mood suddenly became heavy.
Wu Guijun, on the other hand, frowned, looked complicated, looked at the direction of Hanyang Palace and was slightly distracted, unable to see what he was thinking.
The East Palace also received the news, and the princess Jiang Qi hugged the daughter Jiang Nan who had just been rescued and cried.
Although Emperor Hui Sheng died, the lord of the world had not yet been established, and the princess and the eighth emperor were fighting again in just a moment, just wanting to enter the Hanyang Palace first to find the jade seal.
Many of the hundred officials took advantage of the fire in the East Palace to bring their family members trapped in the Millennium Palace to their side, and they were worried about catching fire, so most of them knelt outside the Hanyang Palace, not daring to help indiscriminately.
Xu Han, who was hiding in the shadows, bypassed the guards of the group fight and came to the Hanyang Palace. In the palace, Xu Liuzhou and Lu Huan were busy drafting the edict to help Jiang Qi ascend the throne.
When Emperor Hui Sheng was dying, he asked Fugong to give Jiang Qi a golden square thing, which was the jade seal of the country, and with it and the dragon guard, Jiang Qi's ascension to the throne was logical.
"Mother, I'm afraid you will have to wait a little longer before announcing the edict."
Xu Liuzhou looked at the edict that had just been stamped, and didn't look at her: "What do you know?" Hundreds of officials are outside, as long as the edict is written, His Royal Highness Eleventh is the rightful emperor. ”
Lu Huan looked at Xu Han thoughtfully, and interjected: "Miss Xu is worried about the princess and the eighth princess?" ”
Xu Han nodded: "I have sent someone to prepare a big gift for His Highness Eleven, but I have to wait until the crown lady and the eighth princess are present together." ”
Xu Liuzhou raised his head and looked at his daughter, who had never learned or learned anything: "What kind of gift?" ”
Xu Han smiled mysteriously and did not answer.
According to the plan she set, at most half an hour, the crown princess and the eighth princess will definitely come to Hanyang Palace, and then she can borrow the mandate of heaven to help the eleventh princess ascend the throne.
However, the plan could not catch up with the change, and the Eighth Imperial Maiden was inadvertently stabbed by the Empress Dowagen's people, and the injury was not far from the heart. Wu Guijun sent people to rescue, but it was in vain.
After the death of the Eighth Imperial Maiden, Wu Guijun went crazy and attacked the East Palace. The princess was a little aggrieved, and she also felt inexplicable, because she didn't order to attack the eighth princess at all. In any case, she is also her own royal sister, how can she kill each other?
But how could Wu Guijun listen to it at this time? He had already lost his mind, and under the strong attack, the princess was knocked unconscious, and Wu Guijun was controlled by the dragon guards who rushed over, and the palace regained calm.
Although the Empress was in a coma and the Eighth Emperor died, the edict should still be issued. When everything was ready, the sky in the east was already cloudy, and the cold wind that had been blowing all night had stopped, and only goose feather snowflakes were floating leisurely.
Outside the Hanyang Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials and their families knelt down together.
"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: The eleventh daughter of the emperor, Qi, has a noble character, and she will be able to inherit the unification. After succeeding me to the throne, that is, the emperor's throne, that is, obeying the public opinion system, holding the service for 27 days, releasing the proclamation at home and abroad, and the salty envoy heard about it. ”
The same edict only changed the Tainu Qi to the eleventh daughter of the emperor. Although the hundred officials were puzzled, after all, the eleventh princess was only ten years old, just when everyone wanted to raise objections, there was a phoenix flying in the eastern sky, and a hundred birds were singing and jumping, and these auspicious signs instantly erased the only remaining doubts, and only convincingly accepted the daughter of the Mandate of Heaven to ascend to the throne.
In the Bauhinia Palace, Wan Fang has not yet returned, and the thin figure looks even thinner.
Xie Yu lit three pillars of incense, clasped his hands together, and whispered softly to the person in the painting in front of him: "Father, you see, even the heavens are helping the imperial sister, can you see it?" ”
The cold voice echoed faintly in the empty hall, and the sound of snow whining outside the hall echoed silently.
