The sky was low, thick clouds were rolling in mid-air, and the sky was darkening, as if a long-lost storm was brewing. The cold, damp wind cut people like a knife, filling every corner of the palace, silently and pervasively.

There were seven or eight people standing in the Qianshi Palace, and the civil officials and military attachés wore military attaché armor, all of them were officials of the second rank or above, and they were the people who had recently taken over the emperor, and their opinions even affected the emperor's decision-making.

At this time, each of them was silent and unusually serious, as if they were facing a major test. The cold weather became more and more gloomy in their watery faces.

The snowflakes are like a girl dancing lightly, stepping on graceful dance steps to descend to the world, and soon a thin layer is laid on the ground.

Yuan Yongyan walked into the Qianshi Palace, he had the cold breath outside, and his shoulders were white snowflakes like cotton wool, and as he walked in, the seven or eight people who were originally standing in the hall stood up straight.

Su Xueyao followed, her delicate face with the cold and noble winter plum blossoms, arrogant, today she wore a snow-white fox fur, the white snow fell on the white fur as if it had disappeared, making her whole person look more cold and not easy to approach. The eldest prince Yuan Yuheng followed closely behind her.

"Now that everyone has arrived, and this king is no longer beating around the bush, the main reason for inviting everyone to come today is to convey the last wishes of my father." Yuan Yongyan's keen gaze swept over everyone, "My father was seriously ill when he was alive, and it was Hou Yan's princess and Princess Ning who were waiting for my father by the bedside. ”

Everyone's eyes invariably fell on Chu Junxi, who had been standing quietly in a corner since entering the hall, and Chu Junxi's eyes were slightly narrow.

Yuan Yongyan was very satisfied with everyone's performance, "My father once arranged the aftermath with Princess Ninghe, and if he didn't have time to see his two sons, he would announce it on his behalf." ”

"Did the first emperor really leave an edict?" The one who spoke was a general, dark-skinned and burly, with some eagerness in his words, and at first glance he was a straightforward person.

Chu Junxi nodded, "Yes." Although the words were soft, they clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

"The first emperor wants to pass on to that prince?"

Chu Junxi looked at Yuan Yongyan, and the other party nodded slightly at her. Chu Jun took a step forward, his voice was clear and crisp as if reading a holy decree, with unquestionable firmness, "The last wish of the first emperor is passed on to the second prince. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone reacted differently, some people nodded lightly with satisfaction, some of their faces were suddenly radiant, some frowned as if they were puzzled, and some of the frost on their faces was even colder.

"Hmph." Su Xueyao snorted contemptuously, although her voice was soft, it was more powerful than the roar made by the dantian of a person with profound martial arts, and the hall suddenly became silent, Su Xueyao put the blue and white porcelain teacup in her hand on the purple wood table, and got up leisurely, "The second prince will not think that with a word from a foreign princess, he can sit on the throne." ”

"With a word from a foreign princess, you can't." Yuan Yongyan's voice changed, "But it is not feasible to kill the king and seize the throne, is this king right?" Su Guifei? ”

"Naturally, not."

The two looked at each other, their eyes fighting, one calm and the other cold as frost.

"Since the second prince said so, there must be convincing evidence." It was a middle-aged man wearing a vermilion court robe who was slightly blessed when he spoke, his tone was steady, and he simply said what he wanted to say, ignoring the contest between the two.

"The father and the emperor confessed it personally, are everyone still questioning it?"

Su Xueyao sneered, "The second prince guards the border pass and holds the military power, as long as you say a word, Hou Yan can be wiped out in an instant, Princess Ning He is responsible for protecting the peace of the country, and it is not impossible to be coerced and lured." ”

There were a few people present who nodded in agreement.

It was indeed for the safety of Hou Yan that he agreed to the request of the second prince, but this was also the wish of the first emperor. Chu Jun said with regret, "The first emperor confessed this matter to Ning He at the moment before he died, so Ning He was never threatened by the second prince. ”

Su Xueyao's gaze condensed into a needle, and the tip of the needle carried the biting cold wind outside the hall, "Since that's the case, why didn't you say it that day, but didn't say it until today?" ”

"At that time, Wancheng Hall was invaded by rebellious ministers and thieves, and her father was unfortunately killed, and she was fortunate to be able to record her father's entrustment." Yuan Yongyan looked at Su Xueyao lightly, "She is just a princess, naturally she can't be compared with Su Guifei, who has been in charge of the harem for many years. ”

"Since she insisted that the first emperor had entrusted her with the throne, then come up with evidence to convince everyone." Su Xueyao had a good time.

The cyan jade wrench finger was placed on the white palm, and the little red on the dragon's tail seemed to ignite the fire in everyone's eyes, and everyone gasped.

Chu Junxi put the green jade wrench in front of everyone, "The first emperor handed this thing over to me after explaining the matter of the throne. ”

Yuan Yongyan looked leisurely, and said lightly, "I believe that everyone knows this wrench, this thing is owned by the emperors of previous dynasties, seeing the wrench is like seeing people, the father handed over the green jade wrench to Princess Ninghe, the meaning is self-evident, is there anything else you don't understand?" ”

The green jade wrench refers to the symbol of imperial power, which is owned by the emperors of previous dynasties, and seeing this thing is like seeing the emperor himself.

Su Xueyao's face turned pale the moment she saw Qingyu's wrench, and the strength in her body was not enough to support the weight of her body, so she staggered back two steps.

Yuan Yongyan turned to stare at her, as if admiring this woman's gaffe, his tone was unprecedentedly soft, and he said slowly, "Is there anything else Su Guifei wants to say?" ”

The two sides are fighting, and the green jade wrench, which symbolizes the imperial power, is not enough to worry the other party in the hands of either side, and the wrench without the edict of the first emperor is just an ordinary wrench. But in the hands of Chu Junxi, it was very different, in the last days of the first emperor, she stayed by the side of the first emperor, and her words were the will of the first emperor, and his words were enough to make Yuan Yongyan sit on the throne justifiably.

Yuan Yongyan looked at everyone present one by one, "Do you still have any objections?" ”

"The country cannot be without a king for a day, please let the second prince ascend the throne as soon as possible." Everyone said in unison.

Yuan Yongyan looked at Chu Junxi, who stepped forward and handed the green jade wrench finger into his hand.

Yuan Yongyan took the wrench and put it in his hand, "The Ministry of Rites and Rites is preparing for the enthronement. ”

A war for the throne ended like this, and without even moving a single soldier, the high and low were separated, and a green jade wrench strangled the carefully planned and ingeniously designed strategies of both sides, and killed them all before they could be used.

Su Xueyao probably never dreamed that she would lose in this way, the other party only ruined her deliberate plan in just two or three sentences, she lost, and she lost completely.

I have been fighting in the harem for so many years, and today is the most complete loss. Walking out of the Qianshi Hall in despair, Su Xueyao completely lost the momentum and elegance when she came.

Chu Junxi, the woman who caused herself to lose, no one can be safe and sound after hindering herself, sooner or later she will have to pay the price for this woman, she will let her know that death is not the most terrible, there are things in this world that are a thousand times more terrible than death.

Chu Junxi had never seen a person's eyes so vicious and palpitating, as if he had been stabbed in his heart with poison. Helping the second prince ascend to the throne by herself is tantamount to openly standing on the side of the second prince, Su Xueyao will definitely not let go of herself, her eyes that make people tremble from the bones are the signal.

Three days later, the enthronement ceremony was held in the majestic hall, the ministers worshiped the mountain and shouted long live, Yuan Yongyan Ming Huanglong was afraid of adding body, and the dragon crown on his head flashed with the light that made the sun and the moon fade.

"Zhongqing is flat."

"Long live thanks." A thick, loud voice echoed in the air for a long time.

The enthronement ceremony of the previous dynasty was still going on, and the harem was calm.

The sun is shining, and it is a rare good weather. Chu Jun looked at the plum blossoms in full bloom in the corner of the wall, the bright red plum blossoms were covered with white snow that had not been completely integrated, and the red and white were beautiful.

"Concubine Su has arrived." The sound of the inner prison broke the silence of the first courtyard.

What should come will always come, Chu Jun regretted getting up and tidying up his crimson nine-dress light gauze skirt and waiting for the phoenix.
