Chapter 27: The Empress Rises to the Queen Mother

The death knell rings.

White flags are hung high in the palace.

The civil and military officials entered the palace in plain clothes, each with different thoughts.

Tonight was supposed to be the emperor's wedding night, but who would have thought that he would die suddenly.

As the crown prince, Helian Xiao naturally had to personally clean the old emperor's face and change the dragon robe.

By the time he came out of the dormitory, it was already dark.

The first emperor only had one son, the crown prince, so naturally there was no struggle for the throne.

It's just that......

Prime Minister Yun knelt on the ground and said in a sad tone, "The emperor died suddenly, and only the queen mother was by his side at that time, and the old minister thought that this matter must not be so simple, and I implore His Highness to investigate thoroughly." ”

"The ministers seconded the proposal." The ministers kneeling on the ground echoed one after another.

What these people are thinking in their hearts, how can Helian Xiao not know.

is nothing more than worried that Feng Wanyue has become the queen mother, and maybe she will do something to disrupt the court with him.

After a moment of silence, he pursed his lips and said, "Prime Minister, Yue ...... The queen mother is just a weak woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, and her father's marriage was in a hurry, and at that time, Wang Gonggong and Fu Mama were also serving outside the Weiyang Palace, do you still think she is suspected of killing the king? ”

"Your Royal Highness, I'd rather kill by mistake than let it go, the emperor was originally in good health, how could he die in a good way, if there is no other reason for the old minister to never believe it, he must have given an explanation to the people in the world!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Could it be that His Royal Highness is because the queen is the sister of the late crown princess, so she loves the house and Wu so much, and even does not hesitate to cover up the cause of the emperor's death?"

"Presumptuous!" Helian Xiao scolded, and the momentum around him suddenly swooped.

Prime Minister Yun knew that he was speechless, but if he didn't say when he would wait for the little girl to become the queen mother, wouldn't everything be a foregone conclusion?

At this time, Father-in-law Wang, who was standing aside, wiped his tears and stood up.

He choked up and said, "Your Highness, my lords, in fact, the emperor wrote a testament a few days ago and put it in the dark compartment under the dragon in the dormitory...... went, so he asked Prime Minister Yun and Mrs. Qiao to take out the will from the secret compartment and read it out in public. ”

Crowd, "......"

Prime Minister Yun and Mrs. Qiao looked at each other.

However, Father-in-law Wang has always been a trusted close attendant of the emperor, and he has never befriended anyone, so naturally no one will not believe his words.

A moment later, the two of them really walked out with a bright yellow decree in their hands.

They opened it first and looked at it, and immediately they all showed shocked expressions.

"This ...... How could it be ......"

"Your Majesty, he ......"

Helian Xiao took in the expressions of the two of them, and only said in a deep voice, "Two adults, please read out the holy decree of the father." ”

The declaration of the will is also a great honor, but this time Mrs. Qiao didn't dare to ask for this hot potato, so she knelt directly on the ground and made an appearance of listening to the holy decree.

Prime Minister Yun, "......"

So far, Prime Minister Yun can only speak hard-

"In the past ten years, I have been diligent in government and love the people...... I know that my body is sick, and the limit is approaching...... The crown prince Helian Xiao has a humble character and bows deeply, and he will be able to inherit the unification and succeed me to the throne, that is, the emperor. The dust king Mo Chenyuan guarded the border passes, protected the country with merit, and his name was in the world for thousands of years, and now he conformed to the will of heaven, and Lier was the regent, assisting the Son of Heaven to manage the government together. Queen Feng Wanyue...... Respected as the queen mother, expected to be raised by the world, the new emperor needs to be filial to his mother...... Chin this. ”

The crown prince ascended the throne without any suspense.

However, what does it mean to establish the dust king, who already holds military power, as the regent?

The most important thing is that the sixteen-year-old girl was promoted from queen to queen mother overnight?
