Chapter 786: Death Knell

In the early morning, the death knell spread throughout the capital.

On the lively streets, the people of the capital, who are accustomed to having breakfast outside, have shown their expressions of "this day has finally come".

The emperor has been sick for too long, and everyone knows that this time it should not work.

Because I was prepared, I didn't feel too sad.

It's just the questions that come with it that make them nervous.

"Who will succeed him? King An? ”

"Didn't you say he broke his leg? Can't you? ”

"Could it be the Fourth Prince?"

From dignitaries to ordinary people, they are all concerned about this issue.

Succession to the throne is a common thing. It's just that now this emperor has been in power for twenty-three years, and the people are used to this stability. Now that another emperor is on the throne, will it change the status quo?

Everyone has heard how ridiculous King An's early years were.

But the fourth prince is only eleven years old, and he must not be able to govern himself at such a young age!

It didn't take long for the edict to be announced.

The news spread throughout the capital.

"It's the king of Yue! The Holy Admiral passed the throne to the King of Yue! ”

"What's going on? Isn't King Yue separated by generations? ”

"Yes! But if you think about it, it makes sense. King An's leg was broken, how could there be an incomplete person to inherit the throne? The fourth prince is so young, the saint is not at ease! ”

"Hey! actually passed the throne to his nephew, and the selfless heart of the saint was really touching. ”

"Yes! The Holy One deserves to be a benevolent monarch! ”

In the teahouse and restaurant, countless people are talking.

The old masters who emphasized morality and etiquette were full of emotion, the young scholars were also admired, and even the ordinary people were grateful to Dade.

But in the palace, certain things were honestly recorded by the historians, and one day, these truths will be known to the world, and the name of the so-called benevolent monarch will also be self-defeating.

These, whether it is Pei Guifei or Yang Shu, are not in a hurry.

They have waited for so many years to wait for the day of revenge, what if the little false name is now let him enjoy it?

When the time comes, the name of Renjun, whom he values, will eventually be wiped out, and there will be nothing left.

In any case, this edict of succession has been recognized from top to bottom.

In the case of King An breaking his leg, although this choice is unexpected, it is reasonable to think about it.

The abolished prince categorically could not ascend the throne, and King An had an accident again, and it was certainly a choice to pass it on to the four princes, but how could an eleven emperor compare to the new monarch in his prime?

In addition to a few princes, the closest bloodline is this King Yue!

It is not surprising that the Emperor made this choice.

Some people also remembered the absurd reputation that Xinjun had when he was the third prince of the Boling Marquis Mansion.

However, recalling this incident, people found that His Royal Highness King Yue has been very low-key in recent years, and it seems that he has never done anything ridiculous again, and he can even be said to be young and promising.

Since that year, the third prince of the Marquis of Boling was demoted to the northwest, and many things have changed.

In the northwest realm, not only did he not give up on himself, but also made military achievements.

Not long ago, he accompanied King An on the expedition, and it seems that he also made a great effort.

Thinking about it this way, Xinjun seems to be a very good candidate.

Prior to this, King An's earlier behavior was somewhat worrying, but King Yue cleared his reputation early.

But there are also old-fashioned people who find it inappropriate.

"The father dies and the son succeeds, this has been a rule for many years, how can it be broken casually? It is unreasonable to set up nephews and grandchildren! ”

"With this example, what will you do in the future? Isn't it chaos? ”

"Not bad. Although the saint is a benevolent monarch, how can there be a reason not to want to have a son? Even if King An is not suitable, there are still two princes! The fourth prince is just a little younger, and there are no shortcomings, just wait a few more years, isn't it? ”

"Yes, yes, the fourth prince is already over ten years old, so he doesn't have to worry about dying young. If you don't set up the four princes and the king of Yue, it's really incomprehensible. ”

With this remark, Fu Jin asked people to spread brainwashing in teahouses and restaurants.

"Isn't it good to be the king of Liyue? At the beginning, the pacification of the northwest was the credit of the king of Yue. When he succeeds to the throne, can we look forward to the southern expedition? ”

Expedition to the South! When this topic comes together, it has formed a prairie fire.

The north and the south are a family, young people may not remember, but the elderly, which one has no mark in his heart? They all remembered that they still had relatives in the south, and they might be able to reunite after reunification!

Great Qi has been peaceful for many years, and the national strength is getting stronger and stronger, and the people are not afraid of war.

The First World War in the Northwest a few years ago fueled their ambitions.

Since even the wolf-like Hu people can clean up and unify Southern Chu, it doesn't seem so unthinkable.

I think that at the beginning, when Taizu was in the court, from top to bottom, he was thinking about the Southern Expedition, and the people had not forgotten the feeling of blood boiling!

These remarks spread throughout the capital, and no one had doubts about the qualifications of King Yue to succeed to the throne.

……

Compared with the people, the dignitaries and dignitaries were uneasy.

How unusual the news is, they are even more perceptive.

It is impossible for the emperor to set up a nephew and grandson, and the incident of that night has been leaked out somewhat. The emperor has even written the holy decree of the four princes, which shows what the real mind is.

Last night, there must have been a storm in the palace.

However, the edict was announced to the world, indicating that King Yue had won, and it was useless to argue at this time.

Moreover, they heard an astonishing news, which was quietly circulated in the provinces.

"Did you hear that? Zhang Xiang left the palace last night and never went back. ”

"How could you not have heard of it? On the way to the palace, King Yue shouted and killed a lot of blood! Now that it's blocked, I heard that it's cleaning up the bloodstains. ”

"Yes, yes, our house is relatively close to Wangfu Street, and I heard the sound last night, but I didn't dare to go out."

"Who dares to go out? How can we interfere in such a thing? ”

"Yes! These words are out of this door, let's stop talking about them, it's not good for people to hear......"

Having said that, I still can't help but talk about it.

"Where is Zhang Xiang now?"

"King Yue has entered the palace, where do you say the people are? I'm afraid that this prime minister will never appear again. ”

"Alas! His Royal Highness King Yue has just ascended the throne, and he killed the prime minister, which is inevitably too ......"

"Shut up! You dare to say that! ”

"Yes, yes, my little brother lost his words."

In any case, the king of Yue had become the victors, and they said these words to no avail of anything but to cause trouble.

What's more, King Yue's succession to the throne is also reasonable!

He is the queen of Sihuai, and the ancestor is in the same line.

In the dark, the throne is back in the hands of this one.

……

When the Ji family heard the news, they were collectively stunned.

"Yue, Yue, Yue?" Master Ji stammered, "Is it written on the edict of succession to King Yue?" ”

Ji Ling calmly took a sip of porridge and replied, "Yes! ”

Master Ji was stunned for a while, then suddenly jumped up and stammered: "Then, then our Xiaoqi, will we become queens?" ”

"That's right!" Ji Ling said with a smile, "Dad, you have become the queen's uncle!" ”
