Chapter 179: Enthronement Ceremony (1)

When the dust settled, His Majesty's funeral was held, and this king, who had dominated the entire country for more than 20 years, finally ushered in his last highlight moment in the snow.

Yu Chengyun, the crown prince of the prison state, cried and fainted in front of the coffin of the former emperor several times, not only that, but the cries of all the concubines of the former emperor also made the sky of the entire imperial city tremble.

Although the funeral system has been abolished many years ago, the childless concubines and palace people have no age, at this moment, the whole life has come to an end, and everything in the future will be spent lonely in the cold palace.

Their emotion may have nothing to do with the former emperor, but they are just sad for their early life.

The snow was falling, and the funeral procession of the former emperor was in the snow, and in the cries of countless people, they moved forward.

Yu Mingche didn't shed tears, he just walked beside the coffin of the emperor with red eyes, sending his brother on his last journey.

Mu Xiyun, as a life wife, knelt among countless crying noblewomen, and when Yu Mingche walked in front of her, she quietly raised her head and saw Yu Mingche's red, swollen and bloodshot eyes.

Although he didn't cry, he must be shedding blood and tears in his heart, no one commented on the merits and demerits of the emperor, whether it was his various calculations for power, or his governance of the whole country, at this time he didn't want to think about which was right and which was wrong, but in Yu Mingche's heart, he has always been the brother who grew up protecting him.

When they were young, they ran together in the imperial garden, learning under the guidance of the master, the first word written by Yu Mingche holding the pen was written by the hand of the emperor holding him, and his first arrow was shot by the emperor holding his hand, and then he ascended the throne and became the lonely man who was high up, Yu Mingche went away to the border to guard, but all this did not change the brotherhood between them.

But Langhua destroyed all this with his own hands, cut off the blood-related family relationship, and broke everything beautiful in blood.

Yu Mingche walked slowly, the feeling of loneliness permeated his whole heart, he had been holding back, from the time he knew that the emperor was gone, everything was mixed together, he didn't have time to be sad, but now, he finally remembered everything in the past, and sadness came out hundreds of times, maybe death was a kind of redemption between their brothers.

He chose to forget the unbearable things, and what came to his mind was always the scene of their brothers, friends and brothers, the sixth emperor brother went, and now the imperial brother also went, and he was the only one left in the whole world.

Perhaps tomorrow the whole world will be different, and all people will grieve the death of the emperor today, and rejoice in the enthronement of the new emperor tomorrow.

Some people say that today's heavy snow is the sorrow of God for the departure of the emperor, and some people say that it is to change the color of the earth, and when the snow is all covered with the tomb of the emperor, there will be a new beginning.

And this started because Yu Chengyun was about to reach the pinnacle of power, and it was not because Yu Mingche's heart for family affection was like ashes.

"Yu Mingche." When he returned to the mansion at night, Yu Mingche had been holding the jade pendant given by the emperor in a daze, and Mu Xiyun quietly hugged him from behind and shouted softly.

"Yun'er, the sixth emperor brother has gone, and now the imperial brother has also gone, and I don't have any more brothers." His eyes were filled with mist, and he finally couldn't help but fall.

Mu Xiyun turned him around, his eyes were still red and swollen, since the assassin of His Majesty's murderer, Fufa, he had been guarding in front of the spirit of the emperor every day, lamenting the years they had lost.

"Yu Mingche, you still have us, we will always be by your side." Mu Xiyun stroked his frowning brows and said softly.

"Yun'er." Yu Mingche hugged Mu Xiyun tightly, and cried bitterly, his whole body trembling because of crying.

Mu Xiyun just gently touched his hair, gently holding the fragile Yu Mingche at this moment.

On the second day, there was only one topic in the court, that is, the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor.

Yu Mingche stood below and did not speak, and all the ministers next to him were chattering about their thoughts, or they were desperately expressing their loyalty to the new emperor in another way.

Yu Chengyun sat in the position of the crown prince of the prison country, and also silently looked at the empty throne above, since the first emperor fell ill, the court has always been like this, but at that time there was no fear in his heart, because he knew that he still had a father, but now everything has changed, and it won't be long before he will sit in that position, looking at all the people below, lonely and lonely.

Finally, he wanted to ask himself, is this position really what he wants? Definitely not, but what he wanted no longer belonged to him, although he had thought of exchanging the world that countless people wanted, but in that person's eyes, these were not worth mentioning.

"Your Highness, now that the emperor has died, the most important thing is that you must ascend the throne as soon as possible in order to ensure the stability of the country and the peace of the people." Qi Guogong was the first to stand up and say to Yu Chengyun.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Except for Yu Mingche, all the other ministers followed Qi Guogong and stood up and shouted in unison.

"King Yan, you are the first assistant, but you don't express your opinion, do you still have any thoughts about the crown prince's accession to the throne?" Qi Guogong turned around and looked at Yu Mingche meaningfully and said.

"Your Royal Highness, the minister does not mean this, when His Majesty was alive, he named you the crown prince, you are the new emperor who has ascended the throne, and the minister now just wants to enthrone the throne according to the ancient system or more grand, in order to show the national prestige of our country." Yu Mingche heard Qi Guogong say this, and quickly stood up and explained.

"King Yan's remarks are not unreasonable, now that the emperor has died, it is inevitable that other countries will have the intention of waiting, and the grand ceremony can also deter other countries." Soon someone stood up and echoed Yu Mingche's idea.

"The death of the first emperor is very painful, but in the face of the heavy responsibility of the country, the palace has to calm the people's hearts as soon as possible, so all matters of the enthronement ceremony can be handled by King Yan." Yu Chengyun said sadly.

"The minister must live up to His Highness's trust!" Yu Mingche said with a firm salute.

Yu Mingche and Yu Chengyun sang and saw it with a clear eye, so immediately everyone stood on Yu Mingche's side and began to take the initiative to echo it.

The sky is about to change color, and the new emperor's accession to the throne is bound to break everything original, whether the future will be cloudy or clear, just waiting for Yu Chengyun's strategy.

Father, I have finally been in this position, I have been learning since I was a child for today, but why I don't have a little joy at this moment, people often say that people who sit in that position are supremely honored, because they can get everything they want, but I am different, why I always feel that once I get there, I am getting farther and farther away from what I really want to be.
