369: The new emperor reigns

The journey back to the city was long, and the trio chose to ride horses, which would save a lot of time. Along the way, Wei Ziyu didn't say a word, and was silent with a cold face. Zhongli Boqian tried to talk to her many times, but all failed.

"Why is Ziyu in such a hurry to return to the city?" Zhongli Boqian finally got in front of Wei Ziyu before talking to her.

"Phew." Wei Ziyu stopped his horse, turned his face to look at Zhongli Boqian, who was worried, and explained: "I haven't seen the fate of the queen yet, doesn't Boqian want to see what kind of fate she has in the end?" ”

"Her fate ......" Zhongli Boqian paused, then smiled: "It's better to be executed by Ling Chi, otherwise how can you cancel out what she did?" ”

At the same time, Gonggong Zhao arrived at the Joan of Arc Hall with the emperor's holy decree.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, the queen lost her morality, poisoned the virtuous concubine nine years ago, and now she still does not change, colluding with the traitor Qiao Jiang to rebel, creating false evidence, confusing everyone, and framing Zhongliang. From now on, the position of the queen will be abolished, Ling Chi will be executed, and the date of execution will be determined at a later date. ”

Qiao Zhen took the holy decree tremblingly, she still couldn't believe that Qiao Jiang's plan had failed, if he hadn't been fully prepared, she wouldn't have exposed herself. The emperor is not sick on the bed, how can he mention the incident nine years ago? Since Ling Chi was sentenced to death, why did he choose a day to be executed?

What the hell is the emperor thinking?

Zhao Gonggong looked at Qiao Zhen who was in a trance, waved his hand, and summoned a new group of slaves: "Take care of her, don't let her have any accidents, the emperor said that her fate can only be Ling Chi's execution." ”

"Yes."

"Ah~" Qiao Zhen roared like crazy and smashed the holy decree on Zhao Gonggong's back. Seeing this, the new minions hurriedly pressed her to the floor to prevent her from making any out-of-the-ordinary moves.

……

Zhongli Bojun, who was on the side of the couch, got up and saluted, and said: "Father Xie adopted the suggestion of his son, Emperor Xie avenged his mother's concubine, and his son set the day of execution on the day of Qian'er's return, does my father think this move is lacking?" ”

"No ......" Zhongli on the couch replied with difficulty, now that he has such a result, he is finally in a better mood.

"Father, there is news from the Delusion Sect that your antidote is already on the way, wait for the father to take the antidote, and it will take some time. The body will get better, the father should not worry too much, as for the person who poisoned her, the sons will find her out sooner or later. ”

Ye Qianqian, who was on the side, was stunned and was about to kneel down to admit it.

Zhongli opened his lips with difficulty, "That's it...... No need to ......"

Now his body is like a tree trunk hollowed out by termites, with only this stump and weak consciousness left. He didn't know how long it would last, maybe tomorrow or the next hour.

……

Li San set off for the city with the developed antidote, Zhong Liyun, the king of Ping, was dead, and no one in this world knew that he Li San was Li Tangsheng's son Li Jing, and the name Li Jing had long been rotten in his stomach.

The people in Jing Huanfang still learned the news of General Wei's death, Qing Yingyu had been depressed for a while, she wanted to follow her to leave the city, but her face was the face of the former crown princess, and appearing in the palace would cause panic!

Thinking of this, Li Jing raised his long whip and quickly ran away from the city with his horse. What he didn't know was that the consciousness of the people waiting for this medicine in the palace was gradually dissipating, and his body was gradually getting cold, and he stopped talking nonsense, and after a while, he couldn't say a word, and closed his eyes forever.

"The emperor has died."

A wail came from the Imperial Palace, and those who heard this knelt down and cried. Zhongli Bojun knelt in front of Zhongli Yue's couch, and Ye Qianqian read out one of the holy decrees.

In the mid-autumn of the seventeenth year of Zhenming, the emperor died at the age of forty-two and reigned for seventeen years.

According to the edict of the first emperor, the virtuous king Zhongli Bojun succeeded to the throne and changed the year name to Yuqing.

In the autumn of Yuqing, the new emperor presided over the funeral and announced it to the world. After three years of national mourning, the whole country mourned, and all entertainment was banned. Negotiated between the new emperor and the ministers, the enthronement ceremony was scheduled for the early winter of Yuqing, and the canonization ceremony was held together with the enthronement ceremony after the canonization of Li Xishuang, the daughter of the Li family.

The day when Wei Ziyu and Zhongli Boqian arrived happened to be the day when the emperor entered the imperial mausoleum, and Zhongli Boqian was able to see his father for the last time.

Wei Mansion, Hei Yue and Wei Ziyu are hanging out in the empty mansion, and now the Wei Mansion is so depressed that there are no people guarding the door. The two walked around the house, but the old things were still there, and the old people no longer existed.

Heiyue looked at the empty Captain's Mansion, walked up to Wei Ziyu, and sighed: "Young Master, do you want your subordinates to buy some slaves and maids for you to come back?" ”

"No need, I'm just coming back to see what happened to the queen, in the future, this young master and Bo Qian will wander the world, let this captain's mansion be so empty!"

"Yes."

"Black Moon!"

"Huh?" Heiyue raised her eyes suspiciously, looking at the young master who suddenly spoke solemnly: "What does the young master command?" ”

"Everything is settled, is there anything Black Moon wants to do?"

Heiyue thought about it seriously and pretended to be relaxed: "Naturally, I am following the young master and protecting the young master!" ”

"You're protecting me?" Yu Ziyu snorted coldly, as if he had heard a joke that was not funny at all.

"Young master, I ......"

"You don't have to follow behind me and Boqian, if you are not embarrassed, we will all feel embarrassed."

"But ......"

"Go to Weiyang City to find your Chen Lu! I have informed Xiang Ling's seniors and Bian Zhibai that they are ready to take you in, and until you get Lord Chen's heart, you can live in this life. ”

"Young master, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Am I joking?" Wei Ziyu looked at Heiyue with an indifferent face, and she gasped in fright, since General Wei died, she seemed to have completely changed back to her original appearance, fierce and vicious, and looked like everyone owed her tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Black Moon looked at the front yard of the Captain's Mansion, which was extremely wide, and there were beautifully carved stone lanterns standing in the corners of the courtyard, and the candles in it had long been extinguished.

Heiyue looked at the empty courtyard and sighed: "I didn't find it before, this courtyard is so big. ”

"This is the Captain's Mansion, and it used to be glorious."

"Yes, yes, yes." The Black Moon should admit it.

"If you want to go to Weiyang City, let's leave tomorrow! If you don't want to go, I'll make the decision to give you to Sima Gongzi, anyway, Sima Shangshu has been looking for a wife for him recently, you guys get along very well, Sima Gongzi shouldn't resist you too much. ”

"Young master, don't say it, I'll go, I'll leave tomorrow. In order to get rid of me, the young master bothered. ”

"Hmm......" Wei Ziyu nodded and said, "Accompany me to Mingyue Tower today, I heard that the boss has changed, I don't know if the taste has changed." ”

"Young master, the boss of Mingyue Building, Lihe, is a disciple of Zhizhenmen, but the chefs of Mingyue Building are not, they are busy cooking every day, how can they have time to listen to the news, now Mingyue Building has been bought by His Royal Highness the Seventh, and the young master is also the proprietress of Mingyue Building, what do you want to eat, just ......"

"Shut up, talk a lot, this young master doesn't want to go to Weiyang City at all when he sees you, since that's the case, I'll go to Sima Shangshu, lest he catch me when he meets me and find a daughter-in-law candidate for him."

……

On the second day, Black Moon set off for Weiyang City.

Today is also the day of Qiao Zhen's execution. Wei Ziyu knew all the crimes she had committed, and hearing that she had been executed by Ling Chi lightened the pain in her heart a little.

The former concubine Ye Qianqian has become the current concubine. Concubine Yuan has become the oldest woman in this harem, and Concubine Hui has become a monk since the death of Zhong Liyun, the king of Ping, and she is often accompanied by the ancient Buddha of the green lantern, eating fasting and reciting the Buddha every day.

The new emperor took charge, abolished the system of left and right prime ministers, and replaced it with the system of one dynasty and one prime minister. The sixth prince Zhong Liyi did not participate in the rebellion, but his mother was guilty, and the new emperor sent him to Qiangwu City, and his wife Zhang Wan'er went to the place of distribution. Zhang Yushi was acquitted and reinstated.

Li Zi became the only prime minister of the dynasty and assisted the emperor in managing the administration. Feng Zhao's deputy general Zhao Qi was promoted to lieutenant and was in charge of the military. Yushi is still Zhang Wan'er's father, in charge of the ministers, responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, including Prime Minister Li Cheng.

Shangguan Tinghan is still the commander of the guard army, Sima Shangshu is still the secretary of the criminal department, Jun Shangshu's position has not changed, and all the other official positions have been reappointed by him. Clearing Li Zi's previous forces and no longer allowing himself to follow the old path of the previous emperor, Li Zi wants to be the next Prime Minister Qiao, which is impossible.

Zhongli Bojun used the Qingxian Hall as his resting place, where there were too many memories of his mother, and he was reluctant to move somewhere else. After going down to the court, he sat on the royal throne and came to the imperial palace.

Concubine Xian saw him and said helplessly: "The emperor has gone down to court, and if you don't go to the queen's sound palace, what will you do in the palace of mourning?" ”

"I come to miss my mother, the one who looks like you and has the same voice." Zhongli Bojun was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, and slowly walked to the courtyard of the Imperial Palace, and walked to the place where the concubine breathed.

Concubine Xian was not annoyed, and followed him slowly to the courtyard: "It's rare that the emperor still remembers Concubine Xian." ”

"Remember, how can you not remember, for the memory of the mother, my memory has always been very clear."

Concubine Xian waved her hand and motioned for all the minions behind her to retreat. The crowd hung their heads and respectfully withdrew. One of them was a little girl hiding in the shadows, eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.

When the mother concubine was dying, she said, "Uncle Jun, you have to promise your mother that you will be considerate of Qian'er. For the mother's concubine, the queen's poisonous woman was late, otherwise the mother's concubine would not be blind. Zhongli Bojun lowered his eyes and smiled lightly: "I used to think that my mother was virtuous and virtuous, but I didn't expect my mother to be so jealous." ”

"So the emperor did not hesitate to give up Miss Wei Er, in order to get the support of Prime Minister Li Cheng, married the woman he hated the most, and now, he has to keep his promise to make her the queen, the emperor's enthronement ceremony was held together with her canonization ceremony, the emperor's heart is really tolerant!" Ye Qianqian laughed lightly.

"Tolerance?" As if he had heard some joke, Zhongli Bojun sneered, "I have my own plans. ”

"After the enthronement ceremony, the draft will also be on the agenda, I don't know what the emperor thinks about this matter."
