Gonggong Hu held the edict in his hand and slowly unfolded it.

In the Xiangyun Palace, it was very quiet for a while, only the shrill voice of Gonggong Hu echoed in the hall: "...... I am dedicated to the world, but the foreign countries are turbulent, and there are internal wars, and now I will protect the unification after my death, and I will make the second prince the emperor......"

When the ministers heard this, they looked at each other.

They never expected that the emperor would actually let the second prince ascend the throne.

But isn't the second prince fake, he has already been disposed of together with the queen because of a conspiracy to usurp power.

Gonggong Hu paused at the end of the reading, and continued: "The regent Feng Duhan is the most trusted person in my lifetime, after the new emperor ascends the throne, he continues to serve as the regent with Feng Duhan, and his children inherit the title hereditarily......"

After Duke Hu announced his will, the ministers were in an uproar.

Let's not say that the emperor got a non-existent prince to take the throne, at the moment, the position of the regent, I am afraid that the wind and twilight will have to sit down for a lifetime, and the children can inherit his title.

"Grandmother, I don't accept this will!" The fifth prince said angrily, "Even if the father is not satisfied with the emperor, the regent should not be in charge of the government!" ”

The Queen Mother lifted her eyelids slightly, "Oh...... Could it be that you, the one who devoured your father and killed your mother, should inherit it? ”

The fifth prince's face turned pale, but he still argued strongly, "I am also doing this for the sake of the country, does my grandmother want to see the throne given up to a foreign clan?" ”

"Who said it was going to be ceded to a foreigner?" The Queen Mother suddenly sneered, "The edict is clear, the second prince will ascend the throne, don't you hear it clearly?" ”

The ministers looked at each other, and secretly wondered in their hearts: This queen mother can't be old and confused, where did the second prince come from.

The Queen Mother glanced at Duke Hu, "Go, invite the second prince in." ”

"Yes......" Gonggong Hu gave a salute and hurriedly ran out of the hall.

Everyone's eyes followed, and they all wanted to see how the Queen Mother would "transform" the second prince out of thin air.

After a short time, Gonggong Hu brought in a young man from outside the hall, and everyone gave way to both sides, and the man passed through the middle of the crowd.

He frowned slightly, and there seemed to be displeasure on his face, but when he saw the wind and twilight standing in front of the Queen Mother, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he stepped forward to salute: "I've seen the regent." ”

Feng Dusk's cold phoenix eyes were lowered, and his tone was quiet: "I've seen the second prince." ”

Just this sentence shocked everyone in the hall.

"II...... Second prince? ”

"Real Fake ......"

All eyes fell on the man's face.

I saw that the man was wearing a purple brocade robe and a jade crown on his head, although his appearance was not as elegant and handsome as that of the King of England, but he did not lose his demeanor, especially his eyes, which were strikingly similar to the queen.

"This is ......" an old minister came to the Queen Mother, "I don't know if this is ......"

The Queen Mother haughtily beckoned to the young man, "He is the second prince lost by the queen twenty years ago, the real wind season." ”

The young man stood silently beside the Queen Mother, in fact, he hoped that others would call him Xia Xiaomo.

It's a pity that in this life and this life, he can no longer be the Xia Xiaomo who is obsessed with cooking.

Facing the surprised and inquiring eyes of the ministers, he was nostalgic for the excitement of following Ye Zhiwei and watching her make new dishes.

At the peach blossom banquet in the Empress Dowager's palace, he finally made a boiled fish for Ye Zhiwei, and since then, the Empress Dowager has never let him into the kitchen again, and he is not even allowed to mention the topic of cooking.

Old Man Xia's body is getting worse day by day, if it weren't for the care of the Queen Mother, I'm afraid that he wouldn't even be able to see his master for the last time, and then he heard about his life experience from his master.

In all fairness, he regretted it a little, and after entering the palace, the Queen Mother would never let him go back.

And now, he has been inexplicably pushed to that supreme position, which is like a big joke for him.

He didn't know anything about political affairs, but the Queen Mother still forcibly arranged him in this position.

However, he still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, as long as Feng Duhan is still the regent, then he will not worry about managing the country in a mess, and more importantly, he will have the opportunity to see Ye Zhiwei again.

He felt that only she would understand his thoughts, and what he wanted was not such a life.

"I've seen His Second Highness!" After listening to the Queen Mother's explanation, the ministers knelt down and worshipped.

Xia Xiaomo...... No, today's second prince Feng Jiru tried his best to put on an arrogant appearance, and said in the cold tone that the Queen Mother taught him: "Everyone loves Qing. ”

Everyone gathered around the second prince who was about to ascend the throne, and the five princes quietly moved out of the hall.

"Where is the Fifth Highness?" Twilight said suddenly.

The five princes faltered.

Feng Duhan waved his hand, "The Fifth Highness devours his father and kills his mother first, and then kills the royal brother of the same clan, the crime is unforgivable, take it!" ”

There were already brocade guards waiting at the door, rushing up.

The fifth prince was injured and couldn't resist at all, and was held by Jinyiwei in the blink of an eye.

The fifth prince stared at Feng Duhan, and said viciously: "Feng Duhan, you will kill me if you have a seed!" ”

Feng Duhan ignored him, turned to Yan Qishan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and said, "This person is handed over to you." ”

Yan Qishan nodded happily and shouted, "Take it away!" ”

The fifth prince scolded, without the intention of begging for mercy at all, and scolded continuously all the way, until he was far away from the Xiangyun Palace, and his voice could still be heard, echoing outside the hall.

The Queen Mother suddenly sighed, "Regent, the mourning family has a reluctant request. ”

"Queen Mother, please speak." Feng Duhan said expressionlessly.

"Although the fifth child deserves to be punished, but now the heirs of the former emperor are only him and the king of England, and several princesses in the other harem are still underage.

The light in the eyes of the wind and twilight cold phoenix flickered, and his joy and anger could not be seen from his face at all, and after a pause, he opened his mouth and said quietly: "Obey the decree of the Queen Mother." ”

In this way, the life of the fifth prince was saved, but from now on, he could only be an ordinary person, and he would have to be sent to the poor border.

The ministers sighed secretly in their hearts, such an end might as well be a happy death.

The Queen Mother left with the second prince.

When the second prince left, his eyes seemed to be reluctant, and he kept staring at the wind and twilight.

He really wanted to ask about Ye Zhiwei, but now in front of the Queen Mother, he didn't dare to speak.

The battlefield outside the Xiangyun Hall was quickly cleaned up, and several attendants laboriously washed the ground to wash away the blood on it.

The palace maids also came out of nowhere and lit incense.

The hall soon wafted a rich aroma, dispelling the depression and tension in everyone's hearts.

The ministers gradually dispersed, and Feng Duhan quietly left the Xiangyun Hall and came to the prison under the jurisdiction of Jinyiwei.

The fifth prince had just been locked inside, and Yan Qishan had not yet left, and was outside the cell instructing his subordinates to pay attention to the guards.

"Regent." Seeing Feng Duhan coming in, all the brocade guards were stunned.

"This king has come to see the Fifth Highness." Feng Duhan's thin lips were pursed, and in the dark cell, his side face was especially cold and ruthless.

Yan Qishan seemed to think of something, and whispered a few words to his subordinates, and everyone retreated.

He personally brought Feng Duhan to the cell of the fifth prince, handed him the key to the cell, and then said in a low voice: "Lord take it easy, don't kill me, I can't explain it." ”

Feng Duhan took the key and looked at the frightened five princes in the cell, a cruel smile rose on the corner of his lips, "This king knows. ”
