In order to act, he talked to the dead corpse with a dry mouth, he seemed to have adapted to the smell of the corpse, and eating bread and drinking water did not affect his appetite at all.

When he finished eating, he found that the corpse had begun to flow to the ground, and if he did not reach his destination, he was really worried that the corpse would turn into a pile of white bones in front of his eyes.

After about a day, Luan Yu finally arrived at his destination.

Lu Chai was woken up in a numb sleep, and a group of men without long beards in long robes, under the command of the prime minister, wrapped the corpse in something like a tiger skin and put it on the bed in a luxuriously decorated room.

When the corpse is put away, pouting purple and asking the group of men who look like men and women not to go out for the time being to announce that the emperor has died, and wait on the spot to listen to orders.

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in a fancy costume who obviously looked like a big official came panting, his lips had no beard, and he was as white as a woman.

Pu Zi called the person who came to Ling's father-in-law.

"Tomorrow morning, we will announce the death of the emperor, and then announce the succession of the crown prince."

Gonggong Ling hesitated for a moment, and said with a panicked expression: "The prince is now thousands of miles away, let's take a step to speak." ”

Then, Pu Zi followed Gonggong Ling to the second prince's bedroom.

At this time, Lu Chai was like clothes hanging on the side, and no one thought of collecting them, and he would be forgotten forever in this palace.

Lu Chai curiously with novelty, running around, heavy courtyards, layers of halls, most of the buildings by the golden brilliant roof, vermilion wooden columns, doors and windows and wide white marble stone steps, the whole neat, solemn and vast.

He walked to a large roof with layers of eaves and corners, so that the roof formed a clever curve, the roof was decorated with birds and beasts, giving people an indescribable mysterious color, the glazed tiles were yellow, the beams and pillars and doors and windows were washed into eye-catching vermilion, depicting dragons and phoenixes, the sea of clouds, flowers and other colorful paintings, luxurious and clear.

Lu Chai stepped into the house, the exterior was so charming, presumably the decoration inside the house would definitely surprise him beyond imagination.

As he walked in, the first thing that caught his eye was a wide clearing, nothing special, and through the clearing, there was a door on the opposite side, carved with ghostly patterns, and as he approached the door, he heard a voice come from it.

Pu Zi said: "The edict left by the emperor is to let the crown prince Juan thousands of miles away inherit the throne, and now that the emperor has died, send someone to quickly whip up the horse to recall the prince to inherit the throne, so that it can appease people's hearts, and there will be no chaos inside and outside." ”

Ling Gong said fairly: "The second prince Zijian is more qualified to inherit the throne, and the crown prince collided with the emperor and was sent thousands of miles away by the emperor, which is considered a guilty person." The second prince stayed in the court, which shows that the emperor values the second prince, and now that the emperor has died, it is natural for the second prince to succeed to the throne. ”

Pu Zi said: "What you said seems to be reasonable, but the emperor's edict says that the crown prince will inherit the throne." ”

Ling Gong said fairly: "I said so much, don't you understand? Let the second prince inherit the throne. ”

Pu Zi said: "Are you threatening me? ”

Ling Gong said fairly: "It's not a threat, it's for your sake, the prince is a person with his own ideas, once a newcomer and a courtier, the prince succeeds to the throne, it is unknown whether you can still be the prime minister." If the two of us burn the emperor's edict in front of the second prince today, rewrite the edict, and let the second prince inherit the throne, we will be the greatest contributors to the second prince, if the prince is allowed to succeed directly, he feels that it is the emperor's edict, and he will succeed to the throne as a matter of course, so he will not thank the two of us, and the two of us will become marginal people in the court at any time. We sweep away everything and help the second prince to ascend to the throne, and the glory of the rest of our lives will be as brilliant as the sun. ”
