Chapter 258: False Transmission of the Divine Decree
Facing everyone's shocked gazes, Mu Yunlan was extremely angry in her heart: "Your Royal Highness King Rong, I don't know, when did you have such self-directed and self-acting skills?" ”
"Yun Lan, don't be angry, it doesn't matter if you can't remember it now, when your memory is fully recovered, you will understand, you see that there are hundreds of civil and military officials today, do we have to argue about this issue in front of them?" Yue Xiaohan had a smile on the corner of her lips, looking at Mu Yunlan's eyes with a gentle and doting look, as if she was accommodating her awkward lover.
"The Dayong Dynasty has always called itself a state of etiquette, His Royal Highness King Rong should not forget his identity, covet his own imperial aunt, but he will be scolded by the world!"
Yue Xiaohan had distress in his eyes: "If I had known that you would lose your memory and be seriously injured, I wouldn't have agreed to let you go to Yunnan at the beginning." Okay, don't make trouble, all the officials are here today, and this king has something important to announce. ”
The officials below were silent.
Yue Xiaohan stood up, his eyes looked around: "You all know that in recent days, my father's health has been unwell, and government affairs have been handed over to this king. ”
"The edict of succession is very important, even if the emperor really descends the holy decree, he should also recruit our first-class officials to witness together, why have I never heard of this news before?" Some officials couldn't help but speak out.
"The transfer of the throne has always been the son inheriting the father's throne, and in recent days, the father's spirit is not good, and the Dayong Dynasty is also a lot of things, and the father is unwilling to move the people, so he wrote the holy decree of the throne and handed it directly into the hands of the king. Do you still suspect that I have failed to pass on the Divine Decree? ”
"The ministers don't dare, it's just that the emperor's dragon body is not safe, and I, as a courtier, are in suspense day and night, so I should go to greet him, I don't know when we can meet the saint."
"My father is not in good health and needs to recuperate, the imperial doctor has been telling him not to disturb, even the king is just kowtowing outside the dormitory, do you want to disturb my father to recuperate?"
The officials below looked at each other: "The emperor is seriously ill, so naturally we don't dare to bother more, but it's always okay to see each other, His Royal Highness King Rong is so shirking in every possible way, can it represent the emperor's intentions?" ”
"The health of my father is related to the stability of the Dayong Dynasty, if it is difficult for my father to recuperate at ease because of your side, what happens, who can afford this responsibility? This king has made everything clear, and you still insist on seeing your father, is there something unsightly about you? ”
"His Royal Highness King Rong can really slander the court officials like this, we are all loyal to the country, but His Royal Highness King Rong took advantage of the emperor's poor health to control the government, and now he is even taking out a holy decree to pass on the throne without authorization, who knows if it is true or false?"
"Presumptuous!" Yue Xiaohan's face flashed with anger, "Someone will drag him down for me and beat him to death!" ”
"Your Royal Highness, what Lord Li said is also what Weichen thinks, if you want to kill people because of this, drag the ministers down and beat them to death!"
"The minister also has doubts in his heart!"
"The minister is also puzzled!"
One by one, the officials stood up and knelt in the hall with solemn expressions.
Yue Xiao lowered his eyes coldly: "You are threatening this king with your life, is it not because of you, no one in the Dayong Dynasty is willing to be an official?" ”
The officials below were still silent, and Yue Xiao laughed coldly: "Okay, since that's the case, then the king will fulfill you, come and drag these people who question the emperor's holy decree down and cut them down!" ”
The Praetorian Guard strode forward, dragging the officials downward. Many people saw Yue Xiaohan's real character, and hurriedly got up to plead.
"Please think twice, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness, Lord Zhang, they are just confused for a while, for the sake of him being an official for many years, please give him a chance!"
"Yes, please be gracious to Your Highness."
Yue Xiaohan was unmoved: "In a few days, the king of Japan is about to ascend the throne as the emperor, if Chrysostom Yuyan can be withdrawn at will, who will take the king's words to heart and drag it down!" ”
"Your Highness, now that spring has been beginning for many days, the snow has melted, and everything has recovered, it is reasonable to actively resume farming and arrange for the victims to return to their hometowns, and we really should not let the DPRK and China have disputes again." Last year, the catastrophe of the Dayong Dynasty continued, if this year still does not grasp the opportunity, blindly internal friction, then the national strength declines, the surrounding countries will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble, by that time the country is gone, what is the use of status?
And because of the ineffective disaster relief, it has led to the loss of people's hearts, if they are still fighting for power and profit, regardless of the lives of the people, I am afraid that the people of the world will fall to King Ning'an. Many people quietly looked at Emperor Lin, could it be said that he had already expected the current scene, so he would resolutely betray the imperial court at the beginning and leave Yunnan with King Ning'an?
Lin Zi'an put down the tea cup in his hand: "Since the emperor has made a will, then you adults will obey it, I don't know when His Royal Highness King Rong will hold the enthronement ceremony?" ”
Yue Xiaohan was happy in his heart: "Thank you for the support of the emperor, this king has let Qin Tian monitor the date, and after 20 days, everything will be fine, and this king has decided to hold an enthronement ceremony on the same day." ”
"Then the ministers will congratulate His Royal Highness King Rong."
Lin Zi'an's prestige is unmatched in the end, and as soon as he opened his mouth like this, many officials changed their words.
Yue Xiaohan waved his hand and asked the Praetorian Guard to put down the officials who had opposed before: "I think that you have been an official for many years and have done a lot of practical things for the imperial court, and today I don't want your life, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is inescapable, and each person will be punished with a cane twenty to set an example." ”
“…… Thank you, Your Highness King Rong. ”
"Well, let's go to the banquet, this banquet is for Emperor Lin and the lord of Leping County to catch the wind and wash the dust, almost disturbed by some people, now that the matter has been resolved, the pig is also happy, the banquet is not drunk, it is good not to return. Yue Xiaohan smiled, but the officials below were full of anxiety, even if it was the dragon liver and phoenix marrow in front of them, they didn't know what to eat at this time.
Yue Xiaohan didn't care at all, holding a wine glass, and turned his head to look at Mu Yunlan: "Yunlan, it won't be long before this king will ascend the throne and become the emperor." When the time comes, the king will decree that he will marry you into the palace, become the queen, and enter the middle palace. ”
"Are you crazy?" Mu Yunlan's brows furrowed.
"I'm going crazy for you, I'm willing." In fact, he originally wanted to announce his marriage to Mu Yunlan at this banquet, but just now Lin Zi'an had already given in, if he pressed hard, for fear that he would unite with the officials of the DPRK and China to oppose it collectively, and he would not be able to really kill all the officials at that time. When he ascends the throne as emperor, he will immediately add Enko, and when new officials are selected, he will naturally not be afraid of these old ministers.
Sitting next to Yue Xia Han, Mu Yunlan only felt cold in his heart, and there were still some shadows of him in his memory, although it was a little unpleasant, but he could still see that this person was a little indecisive, but he was also upright, who knew that in just a few days, he had completely changed his appearance.
"Isn't it wondering why this king has become the way he is?" Yue Xiaohan turned the wine cup in his hand, the glint in his eyes was uncertain, "Because of you!" ”
Mu Yunlan was silent, without the slightest intention of making a sound.
Yue Xiaohan didn't care, he had some words in his heart that had been accumulated for a long time, and now he simply said them together: "I admit that I was shaken between you and Mu Qingyao at the beginning. It's really that you were weak at the beginning, and it was difficult for you to be the prince and concubine, but then your father and mother died one after another, and I dispelled this idea, because I couldn't bear to let you lose everything. But I didn't expect that after I had strengthened my faith, you would leave me......"
Raising the wine cup, raising his head and drinking it all, a anger flashed in Yue Xiaohan's eyes: "You actually like Yue Jingxuan, he is older than you, and he is highly poisonous and will die soon." And with bad intentions, you don't have the slightest respect for the court, you have been injured many times, and you almost lost your life for him, you are still obsessed and followed him to Yunnan! ”
Yue Xiaohan almost crushed the wine cup in his hand: "What's so good about him that can lead you to sacrifice for him like this?" You tell me, what the hell is worth it? ”
Mu Yunlan frowned: "You really want to know?" ”
"Yes, tell me!"
"Okay, then I'll tell you, when I was embarrassed by your mother, he stood up to help me out, when I was framed by Mu Qingyao and my eldest aunt, he rescued me from danger, and when I was almost killed by Princess Huaiqing, he took off his cloak and blocked me from being embarrassed. Do you think that's enough? ”
"I can do this, and I will never let you suffer a little grievance in the future!"
"Can you jump off a cliff for me? Can you damage your reputation in order to keep me from being criticized? Can you expel the other women around you for me and love me only for the rest of your life? Now, if he were replaced, as long as I said no, he would never force me to go against my will, can you do it? ”
"Bang!" Yue Xiaohan got up abruptly and slammed the wine glass in his hand on the ground, and then still felt that it was not enough, and flipped the table to the ground.
The broken porcelain pieces splashed Mu Yunlan's body, and she sat in danger without dodging or dodging, not caring at all.
The hall was dull, and after Yue Xiaohan gasped violently twice, he got up and strode away.
Lin Ye stepped forward to support Mu Yunlan, and when he saw the marks on the back of her hand that was broken by the porcelain piece, he gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart: "Sister, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, second brother don't worry."
At this point, the banquet naturally ended, and the officials wished that they had grown two more legs so that they could leave the palace faster.
Back in the Pure Ning Pavilion, Lin Ye took the medicine box out and helped Mu Yunlan clean up his wounds.
"That Yue Xiaohan, who dares to say that he likes you, is simply not a thing!"
"It's just a small injury, but now, I'm worried about my senior brother...... ......, who thought that he would be able to see him at today's banquet, entered the palace, the two of them separated, and they never saw each other again, Yue Xiaohan is now mad, shouldn't he embarrass his senior brother......
