King Liang and King Wu in Xingzhou rested for two days and then went to Xiaocheng together.

That time, Wei Zhong asked Xue Lingyue to give a gift, although she was very reluctant, in the end she went, and found an excuse for a full moon ceremony, Ayu was not good at refusing, so she accepted it.

Although they received things, the two did not contact each other again, Wei Zhong came to meet Wei Li twice, and it is unknown what they talked about, but obviously the things they expected in their hearts have not changed much, and everyone gets along so plainly.

The two princes here have just left the city, and on the other side of Xiaocheng, the four princes have already arrived.

He heard that Wei Li and Wei Zhong were still on the way, so he stayed in Xiaocheng and planned to follow them into Beijing.

The three princes stopped and stopped along the way, and the time dragged on for more and more, and in Beijing, many people couldn't wait.

On the Jinluan Palace, after retiring from the dynasty, the three old ministers who held the edict accompanied them all the way out of the palace.

Outside the main hall, there was already a group of people waiting there, seeing three people, each in a team, escorting them to the sedan chair, and then to the yamen or the mansion where the errand was done.

The edict in the hands of these three people was handed over by Emperor Sogo himself before his death, in fact, their status in the court is not high, and one of them has reached the age of the sixtieth year, has abdicated, and has also become the object of Emperor Sogo's appointment.

The three of them were designated as protectors by a holy decree, holding the edict in their hands, and now their status in the court is second only to the crown prince and the prince of Zhenguo.

It is unknown when Emperor Sogo handed over the edict to the three of them, anyway, this matter was exposed after the death of the person.

In order to ensure the safety of the edict, at this time, they were all protected, led by a series of ministers of the court headed by the crown prince, and appointed Hongwuwei to accompany them all the way, not only to protect them, but also to protect their children and grandchildren.

The three old ministers knew that they had a heavy responsibility, and they were also very careful since they were appointed, except for going to the court to go to the government on an errand, they all stayed in the palace at other times, and they did not see guests.

Since the revelation of the edict, the weather vane in Beijing has already changed. Originally, I thought that the fourteenth prince favored by Emperor Sogo would have a glimmer of hope to compete with the crown prince, but now it seems that it is not.

The supporters on the queen's side were panicked and uneasy.

If you want to say that Emperor Chongguang passed on the throne, if he really intended to pass it on to the fourteen princes, he should have made an order before he died, but now it is so complicated, many people guess that Emperor Chongguang not only does not have the heart to abolish the prince, but also fears that the queen's power will affect the imperial power too much, and he will leave behind when he is sober.

The queen has been silent on the surface of this matter, and the fourteenth prince is too young to participate in the court, and she has not yet had the ability to listen to politics, but she has stopped a lot on the surface recently.

And on the prince's side, there is no doubt that the scenery is infinite at this time.

Wei Hao firmly believes that the person on the edict is himself, and he is usually proud, and he is also privately co-opting those wavering forces to protect himself.

He has been fighting with Queen Wan for so long, and he also knows that the woman will not give up easily, the closer to the time when the three kings return to Beijing, the more tense the situation becomes, maybe there will be a rebel army that day, and then the city will be destroyed, and the Jinluan Palace will be washed in blood, and there will be nothing.

After the early dynasty, Wei Hao went back to the house, and the spies came to report that the three princes had arrived in Xiaocheng, and it was reasonable to return to Beijing in three or five days.

When Wei Hao heard this, he was overjoyed, and invited his cronies to come in and arrange the welcome in a few days.

No matter how many festivals there were before, now a few royal brothers are willing to return to Beijing, almost recognizing his status, as long as he ascends the throne, he doesn't want to pursue it for the time being.

Wei Hao arranged these matters, and when the government was on duty, he rode a horse and took a team of people to Tobe Shiro's mansion.

Tobe Shiro Zhongwei is the most prestigious of the three people who hold the edict this time, he is incorruptible, and he has lived to the moment is a person who is half buried in the loess, but the courtyard where he lives is only a small courtyard, the courtyard is simple, and there is not even a house number on the top.

In the past, Zhongwei was on foot, but now with a sedan chair and guards, he finally has the appearance of being an official.

When Wei Hao arrived, Zhong Wei had just returned home from duty, and the two met and saluted each other, and Wei Hao mentioned that the three kings would return to Beijing a few days later.

"Zhong Shilang, the saint has been in the sky for many days, and the foundation of the country will be unstable if there is no monarch for a day, and at that time, please also ask the three of you to announce the edict to the world in front of the civil and military officials."

Wei Hao not only came to urge him, but also asked people to invite the other two.

The three of them met and looked at each other, and finally gave their hands to the prince, indicating that as long as the people arrived, they would immediately present an edict to the world.

"In this way, I will thank the three of them in advance."

Wei Hao thanked him, his whole body was full of spirit, he turned over his horse and led people away.

The three of them sent it off, knowing that they had been picked up to discuss the matter of publicizing the edict, and after Wei Hao left, they looked at the Praetorian Guards who were surrounding the door, humbly conceded to each other, and entered the courtyard.

At that time, the three kings had arrived in Xiaocheng, and Queen Wan also received the news.

She smiled faintly and took someone to the study on the other side of the flower hall to watch her son write.

Wei Sheng had been in the Royal Academy before, but it stopped during the state funeral, and now he is staying in the palace, supervised by Queen Wan herself.

In the face of her own son, Empress Wan is undoubtedly stern, Wei Sheng has always resisted the study newspaper, these days Emperor Chongguang went, but he could see some smiles on his face, and even sitting and writing were much more upright.

"The Queen Mother."

Wei Sheng got down from the small chair and saluted Queen Wan.

Queen Wan helped the person up, looked at the big characters on the desk, nodded in her heart, and stretched out her hand to point out a few deficiencies.

Wei Sheng listened obediently, and saw that the queen mother was holding a book on the desk and looking at it, and said with a smile, "This is given to his sons by the prince of Zhenguo, and it is kept for practicing calligraphy on weekdays." ”

How could Queen Wan not know, put it down gently, pulled her son to her side, and asked, "Sheng'er, do you know where your name comes from?" ”

"Didn't this be given by my father?"

Wei Sheng turned sideways and saw that Queen Wan's eyes were gloomy, and he thought that she was thinking about her deceased father, so he silently lowered his head.

Seeing that her son was a little timid, Queen Wan hugged him a little tighter in distress, and said softly, "It has nothing to do with that person." Later, the queen mother will take you to see him and meet the person who named you? ”

"Who?"

Wei Sheng couldn't understand, this was the first time he had heard the queen mother mention this clueless words.

"You'll know then."

Wan Feiying hugged her son on her body, smiling at the corners of her mouth and her eyes becoming more and more ruthless.

Every time she thinks of her ruined life, and those who have passed away, she has endless murderous intentions.

All this is no wonder to others, it is all the sins created by the ignorant, stupid dog emperor.

Xiaocheng

The three princes of the vassal met here, and if they had to get together again in the past, they would have to get together again, and they would have a cold noise.

But now that the national funeral is close to the capital, the three of them just saw each other, closed their doors and went out for a night, preparing to leave for Beijing the next day.
