"It's really ridiculous, King Xing has always been virtuous, kind to the gentry, better than Emperor Wuzong in all aspects, as long as King Xing can ascend the throne, it will be the blessing of the people in the world. Yang Shen sneered, among the literati, King Xing's reputation is much better than that of Zhengde.

"You see, that's where your short-sightedness lies. Many times, the eyes can also deceive. Fang Hong leaned on the windowsill obliquely, looking leisurely.

"Eyes can be deceiving, but I'd rather trust my eyes than you. In Yang Shen's heart, Fang Hong was almost a murderous demon king, he really felt ridiculous, how could he make friends with such a person in the first place.

"Since you believe in your eyes so much, then I invite you to watch a good show, okay?" Fang Hong picked up his wine glass with a smile and took a big sip gently.

"I don't have this spare time, His Royal Highness King Xing will enter Beijing in a while, and I, as Hanlin, also need to go out to greet him. Yang Shen flicked his sleeves and left the table directly, not wanting to stay here any longer.

"Talented, fateful. Seeing that Yang Shen was so faceless, Fang Hong was not ashamed, he just shook his head slightly, and continued to lie at the window and watch.

The show is about to begin.

After about an hour, the pedestrians on the street were completely nowhere to be seen, except for the soldiers of the three battalions standing on both sides of the street, looking solemn.

Outside the Donghua Gate of the Forbidden City, there were hundreds of civil and military officials, and Yang Shen, as a Hanlin, also wore an official uniform and stood at the back of the team. In the distance, a procession could already be seen approaching.

Looking at the bright yellow sedan chair, Yang Shen's eyes showed a trace of excitement. After so much effort, His Royal Highness King Xing is finally about to ascend the throne. Their father and son of the Yang family have worked hard for so long, and they have finally seen the results.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. When the sedan chair approached, all the officials knelt on the ground and said in unison. If it is an ordinary situation, everyone sees that the prince does not need to make such a big gift, but the position of the crown prince of His Royal Highness King Xing is just a passing scene, and after entering the palace, he will directly ascend the throne as the emperor, and it is normal for this ceremony to be a little heavier.

"Donghua Gate?" Zhu Houxi walked out of the sedan chair, looked up and saw a few big characters on the city, with an intriguing expression on his face.

"His Royal Highness can enter from the Donghua Gate, live in the Wenhua Palace, choose a day to visit the temple, and succeed the knees of filial piety before he can inherit the unification. Liang Chu smiled slightly on the side and said.

"Brother Huang's edict, ordering me to inherit the emperor's throne, if I am not the prince, how can I go to Donghua Gate. If I enter the palace, I should go through the Daming Gate. Zhu Houxi took out the holy decree from his arms and glanced at Liang Chu.

"This ...... I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the rules. As soon as Prince Liang heard this, he felt that something was wrong in his heart, why did His Royal Highness King Xing suddenly change his hexagram? Didn't he say that he was good on the road, he passed it to the knee of Xiaozong, and recognized Emperor Xiaozong as his father, and his biological father was the emperor's uncle.

"What is unruly, according to the imperial brother's edict, he only ordered me to inherit the throne, and did not mention the succession. Why do you need to misinterpret the meaning of the imperial brother?" Zhu Houxi's words were a little intense, and the true dragon luck in his body was churning.

And Liang Chu sensed a trace of pressure for no reason, cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and he looked at this young man's eyes, and there was no longer the slightest contempt. This young man, who has not yet reached the weak crown, is not as easy to grasp as they imagined.

"Your Highness, this matter is really out of line. Just like King Ding Tao Gong and King Pu Anyi, all of them succeeded their sons into the great sect. This matter has been done since ancient times, and it is necessary to respect orthodoxy. Even though Liang Chu was a little timid in his heart, he still persuaded and said.

He gave two examples, one was Liu Kang, the king of Dingtao Gong of the Han Dynasty, who succeeded his son Liu Xin, Emperor Ai of Han, to Emperor Cheng of Han, so that Liu Xin could inherit the throne. There is also Zhao Yunrang, the king of Pu Anyi, who succeeded his son Zhao Shu to Song Renzong, and then Song Yingzong was born. These things are ancient rituals and should not be easily violated.

"No, Emperor Han Ai and Song Yingzong have been inherited since childhood, and they grew up in the palace, how can they be confused with my affairs? Although Zhu Houxi was only a teenager in appearance, his mind was so sleek, he immediately seized Liang Chu's loophole and said sophistryly.

"If you don't allow it, then I don't want to sit on this throne, so you should send me back. After saying that, Zhu Houxi returned to the sedan chair and refused to enter the palace.

"This ......" Liang Chu and the others were completely embarrassed, how can this be good, this successive rule is ancient, how can this be changed if it is changed. Besides, Wuzong's edict was not really written by Wuzong, because Wuzong died violently, and these edicts were discussed between the cabinet and the queen, who would have thought of such a thing.

The news here also immediately shook the hearts of the surrounding officials, along the way, His Royal Highness King Xing has always treated people gently, why did the capital suddenly become like this?

And Yang Shen stood in the crowd, his brows furrowed secretly. In fact, it was he and Yang Tinghe who negotiated the succession of Zhu Houxi to Emperor Xiaozong, because these all followed the principles of Zhu Cheng's theory. If it is not continued, then the line of filial piety will be broken, and for these orthodox scholars, it is the most unbearable.

If Zhu Houxi refuses to recognize Xiaozong as his father, then the throne will be incorrect, and if the throne is not right, how can he be powerful in the world.

"King Xing refuses to go to Donghua Gate? What nonsense, do you really think that your wings are stiff?" The cabinet soon learned about it, Yang Tinghe only felt angry, and now that the emperor is about to ascend the throne, he has come out again?

"This is etiquette, you can't violate it, this is a petty character before you get on the throne, so after you ascend the throne, you can't make a bigger fuss?" Yang Tinghe slapped the table fiercely and said loudly.

The reason why they are willing to establish King Xing is that King Xing and Xiaozong are the closest clans, and another point is that they heard that King Xing treats scholars well, which will be beneficial to the country in the future. But King Xing has to go to the Daming Gate, that is, it violates the rules and regulations, how can Yang Tinghe tolerate it?

"According to what the mourning family has seen, why don't we let him enter the palace, this Daming Gate is still Donghua Gate, how much does it mean? The country cannot be without a king, is it possible to drive him back? The emperor's edict has been issued, where do we have a way out?" In one of the cubicles of the Warm Pavilion, a tired voice came out, sighed and said.

It was the Empress Dowager Zhang who spoke, the death of Emperor Zhengde was really a great blow to her, her husband died more than ten years ago, and now her son has died, which is already the biggest pain for a woman. She didn't bother to care about those things outside, she just wanted to set up the throne quickly, so that she could go back to Renshou Palace to eat fast and pray for Buddha.
