Chapter 640: The Coffin Closure Conclusion

When a person can show extraordinary calmness when he is angry in his heart, then he already has the potential to succeed.

Is the prince angry?

The answer is yes, because Feng Yunxiao's posture in front of all the civil and military officials in the Qiankun Hall is simply to regard him as nothing.

The true content of the decree was unknown to the prince, but he was sure that it was not what Feng Yunxiao had read out.

If it is possible to let Fengyun Xiao assist him, but letting him continue to lead the military power of the empire and lead the southern frontier himself is definitely not an order that the monarch of the empire will stay.

However, he had no way to refute it, but to acquiesce.

Because, that's what Storm Howling needs.

The Prince's Palace.

When he returned to the palace where he lived, the prince's face was blue and cold, and all the palace maids and guards who saw the prince's face couldn't help but tremble.

"Too ...... The crown prince, Princess Linglong and the envoy Zuo are waiting for you in the back garden" A maid cautiously walked up to the prince and said in a trembling tone.

"Hmm" nodded, the prince ignored the strange appearance of the palace maid, and walked straight towards the back garden of the huge prince's palace.

Coming to the back garden, passing through the clusters of fragrant flowers, and walking through a quiet and elegant bluestone road, the prince came to a pavilion on the lake in the center of the garden.

There were two people sitting in the pavilion, dressed in black and not meeting the national teacher Zuo Qinshuang and the prince's sister Princess Linglong.

"Brother Huang, what's the situation?" Linglong got up and asked when she saw the prince coming.

Shaking his head, the prince took the tea handed by Qin Shuang and drank it all, then held the jade cup in his hand tightly, and said in a deep voice, "Fengyun Xiao is gone, and I went to southern Xinjiang." ”

Xiu's eyebrows condensed lightly, and Linglong muttered, "Why did he leave at this time, his father and emperor have not been buried." ”

"His goal has been achieved, and it doesn't matter whether he stays in the imperial capital or not. Qin Shuang said, "Fortunately, we came back in time this time, otherwise he would have done whatever he wanted in the imperial capital." Prince, can you tell us about what happened today?"

Walking to the edge of the pavilion railing, looking at the lake that was wrinkled by the breeze below, the prince slowly said what happened in the Qiankun Palace, and finally said, "Fengyun Xiao's control of southern Xinjiang has become a fact, and what I can do now is to win Yan Yin's support and help." Otherwise, even if I sit on the throne, I won't even be able to truly control the border north of the Yanyun Mountain Range. ”

"Alas......" sighed, and Qin Shuang said, "I didn't expect that this day is still here." If we had won the support of Qingyue Mountain this time, maybe he wouldn't have been so presumptuous. ”

"Yes," the crown prince sighed, "If I marry Su Xin and make her the Empress of the Empire, then Qingyue Mountain will definitely be on my side." In addition to the relationship between Su Xin and Yan Yin, he will definitely support me fully. It's a pity that the head of Bang Xin did not agree. ”

"Brother Huang, it's not to blame Bang Xin, after all, Su Xin is her apprentice. This identity alone is destined to make her unable to be combined with you. "However, if you change to another person, not only can you achieve the same effect, but the situation will be a little better." ”

"Yan Yue!" Qin Shuang said in a loud voice, "Yan Yi's daughter." ”

Nodding, Linglong said, "Brother Huang, you are too rash, if you replace Su Xin with Yan Yue, it will not be the situation now." ”

Shaking his head, the prince looked at Linglong and said, "Yanyue, I haven't thought about it, but it's impossible between me and her." ”

"Why?" asked Linglong, puzzled.

"National teacher" the prince spit out.

Linglong and Qinshuang were stunned, and the two fell silent.

"Marrying Yan Yue as the queen is naturally the best thing. However, you should also be clear about the relationship between the national teacher and Yan Yi. If I marry the daughter of the rival of the national teacher as the queen, it is tantamount to me standing on the opposite side of the national teacher. This is even more detrimental to me. If it weren't for the lieutenant general and the national teacher, Feng Yunxiao would have abolished me as a prince long ago. This situation is not impossible. The prince said slowly, "Therefore, only Su Xin is the best candidate." It's just ......"

Sighing, the prince said, "Before leaving Qingyue Mountain, the head of Bang Xin has already made it clear to me that Qingyue Mountain will not interfere in the internal affairs of the Fengyun Empire. This means that we can't use Qingyue Mountain to suppress the wind and clouds. ”

"In this way, the only thing we can rely on now is Yan Yin?" Linglong said, "But Yan Yin is not in Northern Xinjiang now, and it is Nangong Jian, the general of Zhennan, who is currently in charge of military affairs in Northern Xinjiang. ”

"Without Yan Yin, we can't really let Northern Xinjiang stand on our side. Qin Shuang said: "Yan Yin represents not only the northern Xinjiang, but also Qingyue Mountain and Qingyun Peak standing behind him. Only when he is there can Feng Yunxiao really be afraid. At this point, even the Nangong Sword could not achieve this effect. ”

Nodding, the prince said, "I know this, so I'm waiting for Yan Yin to appear." In addition, Ye Qingchen sent a letter asking me to be the vice president of Yanwu Academy, and I agreed. ”

"Yanwu Academy?" Qin Shuang frowned at the prince and said, "What is this?"

Linglong on the side explained, "This is an academy proposed by Ye Qingchen and assigned to be in charge of the operation. Yanwu Academy is the same as Northern College, which is to gather talents for training. However, unlike other academies, Yanwu Academy only accepts martial artists. At present, the information released by Northern Xinjiang is that Yan Yin is the dean, and several powerful generals under his command, such as One Piece, Yuyan and others, are all temporary teachers of the academy, and masters of the martial king level such as Conferring Orders and Blood Li are also temporary teachers of the academy. Even Nangong Jian, who had just entered the Northern Frontier not long ago, was appointed as the acting dean of Yanwu Academy. It can be said that this Yanwu Academy includes all the masters around Yan Yin, and the lineup of teachers in this academy alone overshadows the three major academies. From the current point of view, since Ye Qingchen invited the imperial brother to be the vice president of Yanwu Academy, it is obviously a good thing. ”

Nodding, the prince said, "That's why I agreed to this invitation." In addition, I asked Wu Hao to escort Yang Fan and Ling Tian to the northern frontier. At that time, they will reach some agreements with Northern Xinjiang on behalf of the Yang and Ling families, and mobilize the resources of the two families to help Northern Xinjiang develop rapidly. ”

"It's not bad to have the support of the Yang family and the Ling family, with the addition of a Su family who retreated to the north, it can be said that the four major merchant groups of the empire are still in the north. Qin Shuang muttered, "If there is a war, the financial resources of the four major merchant groups can become a strong backing. ”

"Hmm," Linglong said, "what we have to do at the moment is to stabilize the situation as much as possible." At the very least, the world north of the Yanyun Mountain Range must be firmly in our hands. ”

Nodding, the prince said, "Step by step, there will always be a day of success." ”

Looking at Linglong, the prince said, "Linglong, what do you think of Yanyin?"

Linglong was stunned for a moment, looked at his imperial brother and asked, "Imperial brother, what do you mean by this?"

"If you think Yan Yin is good, I want to make a holy decree on the day I ascend the throne and marry you to him. The prince said, "For the sake of this empire, I need his wholehearted help." ”

Linglong did not make a sound, but fell silent.

"Prince, should you think about it?" Qin Shuang said, "Let's not say anything else, even if you want to get married, you have to let Yan Yin propose it first, otherwise it won't damage the identity of Princess Linglong in vain." ”

After a deep groan, he glanced at Linglong, and the prince said, "Okay, let's press this matter for the time being." ”

Looking at Qin Shuang, the prince said, "I decided to restore Yan Yi's identity on the day of my accession to the throne, and canonized him and Nangong Jian as the king of Zhenbei and the king of Zhennan." What do you think?"

After pondering for a while, Qin Shuang said, "It's not impossible, but it's like this on the day of the enthronement, I'm afraid it will make Feng Fengxiao think that we are directly targeting him, and it will not cause unnecessary trouble." ”

"It's okay," the prince said, "Since he can talk nonsense in front of civil and military officials, then I can naturally do it too." I will make a decree on the grounds of the monarch's will, and even if the storm is stormy, I will have nothing to say. ”

Three days later, all the people of the imperial capital were plain.

Because the monarch of the empire will be buried today, and the location is the royal cemetery in the north outside the imperial city.

According to the previous rules of the empire, if the monarch dies, then his concubines and other concubines will be martyred.

However, although this monarch is not very wise and has done a few mediocre things, he has only one queen in his life, and no other concubines.

This is also the reason why a huge empire has only a prince and a princess.

Of course, this is also a good thing for the crown prince.

At the very least, he avoided the situation in previous dynasties where princes and princes fought for the throne.

The funeral of the imperial monarch, although Feng Yunxiao did not attend, but many people belonging to his power appeared.

For example, the head of the Yulou Mansion is not injured, the master of the Dark Incense Pavilion is Xiangfei, Qi Yiming of the Sun and Moon Sect, the Fire Phoenix of the Ten Thousand Fire Gate, Ling Yue of the Youfeng Sect, and Mr. Mo of the Beast Sect have all appeared.

Not only that, but the two gray-clad men who had appeared at the Sage Council also appeared in the field.

The funeral of the imperial monarch was solemn and solemn, luxurious and magnificent, and the scene of the ministers worshipping their heads surprised even the suzerains of the various sects.

"When everyone dies, he has to put a final conclusion on his coffin. I don't know what everyone present thinks of the life of the imperial monarch. Just as the Ice Coffin of the Imperial Monarch was about to be sent to the mausoleum that had been built for him, a voice came to everyone's ears.

Everyone looked for the sound, but the one who spoke was listening to the rain and the owner of the building was unharmed.

He is still so handsome and chic, holding a long fan, he has a rather elegant taste in it.

Looking at Hua Wuxian, the prince said lightly, "This is a matter of the empire, and you don't need to worry about it." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wrong in what he said, now we all live in the territory of the Fengyun Empire, and we can be regarded as the people of the Fengyun Empire. While we regret the death of the imperial monarch, we also want future generations to know about this monarch. Therefore, this is naturally very important to the conclusion of the monarch's coffin. Hua Wuxian smiled and said, "If the prince is not good, then this seat will come to you for you." ”

"A man who does not have the prestige of a monarch and the will of a monarch sits on a throne that should not belong to him. Glancing around, Hua Wuxian put away the long fan and smiled, "This is the evaluation of the person in this coffin." ”
