Chapter Seventy-Seven
Chapter Seventy-Seven
Things in the human world are finally starting to get on the right track, and everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Murong Yuan is old after all, and he can't do without the decoction almost every day.
Su Ying and Murong Jingyi sent people to make a small move in his medicine. Murong Yuan seems to be getting stronger and his face is bright, but in fact, he is getting worse day by day.
Now, just a small wind chill has caused him to not be able to come to the last court for ten days now.
Now that Murong Fan is under house arrest, and with Murong Zi's support in the court, Murong Jingyi has no extra scruples, and his ambition and ability are undoubtedly revealed.
Within a month, Murong Jingyi secretly initially established a group of his own peopleβalthough the good and the bad were mixed. After the infiltration of the forces, he also carried out two small changes of local ministers.
Murong Jingyi had planned to wait a few months, and it was not too late to wait for everything to be ready.
However, Su Ying couldn't wait.
It's not power, it's that the baby can't wait. It's been almost nine months.
Su Ying just wanted to end these troubles in the human world as soon as possible and return to the demon world.
The Yu Lin Wei part of the palace was already in Murong Jingyi's hands, so it was extremely easy for the two of them to sneak in in the evening.
Standing outside the door of Murong Yuan's dormitory, Su Ying hid a yellow brocade silk in his sleeve.
"Go down, all of you." Murong Jingyi instructed a few guards and palace maids.
In a few moments, the person was gone.
Murong Jingyi was behind Su Ying, and Su Ying pushed the door in.
"Who?"
There was an exceptionally weak and old voice in the hall, mixed with a few coughs.
Su Ying followed the voice and walked in.
Beyond the carved agarwood screen and lifting the curtain that exuded layers of old ambergris, Su Ying saw Murong Yuan lying alone on the bed.
Due to the special arrangement, Murong Yuan did not have a maid or a eunuch by his side at this time.
After not seeing him for a month, Murong Yuan looked even older, his complexion was blue and gray, his skin was like a crumpled sackcloth, the corners of his eyes drooped, and his white hair was becoming more and more scarce.
"It's you!"
Seeing someone coming, Murong Yuan looked startled and tried to sit up, but coughed repeatedly. Then seeing Murong Jingyi behind Su Ying, Murong Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes reflected the bright yellow halo on the mattress.
"Murong Jingyi!" He stretched out his hand and pointed at Murong Jingyi, his fingers trembling.
"Father, don't be angry." Murong Jingyi walked over slowly, helped Murong Yuan lie down, and said lightly: "My father has worked hard all his life, and he should also enjoy the blessings." Always hold on to the power in your hands, why bother? β
Murong Yuan just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly lifted it up again, pointing at Murong Jingyi, the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, "...... You, you joined forces with the demon world, surrendered to the enemy and betrayed the country, and wanted to force me...... Ahem, forcing me to abdicate...... cough cough, cough ......"
"Why does my father say so badly?"
Murong Jingyi sat on the edge of the bed, like a filial son who took care of his father and served him, there was no trace between his eyebrows, "I, Murong Jingyi, have been giving advice to the Grace Empire for so many years, and I have done my best, how can I be where I am today without my grace?" I sit in this position......"
Murong Jingyi paused.
ββ¦β¦ Don't give in. β
The four words echoed through the veils full of medicinal smell.
"You...... Ahem...... You-" Murong Yuan coughed a few times, and there was a little red blood on the quilt.
"In the opinion of this king-" Su Ying dragged out his tone and took a few steps closer, "Your Majesty, instead of dying and struggling, we can show you something, so that you can walk more comfortably and at ease." β
After speaking, Su Ying took out a royal signature yellow brocade silk from his sleeve and unfolded it.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: Murong Jingyi, as a prince, has done his best for the graceful empire for many years, and does not seek fame and fortune. He is wise and steady, diligent and loves the people, and he is a capable person who will stabilize the country in the future, and he will become a great weapon in the future, leading me to dominate the world with grace. Now that the widow is critically ill, the third prince Murong Jingyi is the prince of the prince, succeeding me as the unification and recovering my world. Based on this edict, it was announced to the world ......" Su Ying put away the brocade silk and said, "Did you hear clearly?" β
"Do you think that if I kill you, you will succeed? Hmph, my ministers, generals, and grandchildren won't believe it! "Murong Yuan doesn't have enough strength, but Yu Wei still has two or three points.
"Your old man can go with peace of mind, what are you worried about doing so much." Su Ying sneered and said.
"I won't put a jade seal on it when I die...... I won't let you succeed......" Murong Yuan's eyes widened, and an abnormal flush appeared on his face.
Murong Jingyi and Su Ying glanced at each other. Immediately, Murong Jingyi turned her head lightly, took the brocade silk from Su Ying's hand, held a scroll, and placed it in front of Murong Yuan.
The scroll hung down and unfolded to the head, shaking up and down.
"I didn't ask you to put on the seal." Murong Jingyi shook the brocade silk in a place that Murong Yuan couldn't touch, "Look, the imperial seal has been covered." β
Murong Yuan looked at the red square seal on the brocade silk, and didn't say a word, and the last mouthful suddenly spurted blood, his eyes were wide open, and he was talking about something in his mouth, and his body was stiff.
In a few moments, his head slowly drooped, like a candle that had burned its wick.
Murong Jingyi moved quickly, and quickly withdrew his hand to protect the brocade silk.
After a while, he looked at the lifeless person on the bed, and said lightly: "Father, is it interesting to hold the power to death like you?" β
Murong Yuan couldn't hear it.
Murong Jingyi and Su Ying glanced at each other, and the two walked to the door of the dormitory and closed the door of the dormitory.
βββββββββββββββββββββ
The sound of the trumpet pierces the morning fog, and the purple glow symbolizes the royal aura.
The civil and military officials entered the court on time, only to see that the golden and brilliant hall in the past was plain white. Everyone was whispering.
Everyone is speculating about what happened last night.
The little eunuch who gave the order helped Murong Zi and Murong Fan, who were bloodless, and slowly walked out of the apse.
ββ¦β¦ My father was ill for a long time and died last night. Although the princess is heartbroken, she also knows the general situation. The country cannot be without a king for a day, before the death of his father, it was rumored that the third son Murong Jingyi would ascend the throne on the same dayββ"
Murong Zi's eyes were red and swollen, and he lowered his head and finished speaking.
There was an uproar in the hall, and the ministers began to talk loudly.
Murong Jingyi stood in the hall, his face mixed with shocked sorrow, seeing the people around him pointing at him, but he didn't distinguish, just stood dumbfounded, as if he was trapped in the bad news of the death of the first emperor and couldn't extricate himself.
Murong Zi coughed twice, and the hall gradually quieted down.
"The emperor died suddenly, and the princess was also very sad. It's just a national event, the king is the foundation, and this princess, as a woman, also knows this. The edict of the emperor is here, and all the adults can pass it on. β
The ministers took the edict suspiciously and passed it on to each other.
"Do you have any questions?" Murong Zi said.
Someone immediately stepped forward: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the first emperor had no plans to pass on the throne to the third prince during his lifetime, why is it so sudden?" β
Murong Zi looked at him for a long time, and finally said, "Then according to Master Pei's opinion, who should inherit the throne?" β
Master Pei was choked in front of him, and he stumbled: "Minister, minister doesn't know." β
The color on Murong Zi's face softened slightly.
"My father had few heirs before his death, and now there are only me and my third brother. This princess is a woman, and she can't take on this important task no matter what, although Fan'er gives her the surname Murong, but after all, it is not in line. β
Many ministers who knew the emperor's intentions looked at Murong Zi a little strangely, as if they didn't understand why she didn't plan for her son.
Murong Zi ignored it.
"Third brother...... she suddenly called.
Murong Jingyi raised her head in a daze.
"Have you heard your father's edict?"
Murong Jingyi nodded for a long time.
"In that case, let's choose a good day to hold the enthronement ceremony." Murong Zi said.
Although Murong Zi does not have much power, her son has always been deeply loved by the previous emperor, and now even she has come out to call the shots and not fight for the throne for her son, and many people are not good to say.
There are also some people who have ideas in their hearts, but there is no evidence when it comes to Murong Jingyi's bloodline and royal secrets, so it is inconvenient to say it at this time, so as not to hit the muzzle of several princesses and princes who lost their fathers.
As everyone knows, if they don't say it at this time, they won't have a chance to say it.
In the next few days, many ministers with different intentions were convicted and imprisoned for favoritism, bribery, reckless disregard for human life, and arrogance, and the rest of the smart people also shut up.
In this way, ten days later, the human world was graceful, and Murong Jingyi ascended the throne and became the herd.
