The Great Jin Dynasty really doesn't need two Yongyu Hou.

Xie Lin inherited the title of Marquis of Yongyu and became the new Marquis of Yongyu, if the old Marquis of Yongyu came back, how should Xie Lin deal with himself?

Xie Wan lowered her eyes, straightened up and looked at Emperor Wen Zhao and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, concubine." ”

With a thank you, Emperor Wen Zhao knew that she had let go.

He breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and said, "Wang Hanlin." ”

"The minister is here."

"Brother dies and brother, after my death, I passed on the throne to King Ning, abolished the position of Prince Li Zhao and demoted him to the common people, abolished the position of Queen Ma Yuyan, and was not allowed to enter the imperial mausoleum after death, and the Ma family was beheaded!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole room was silent.

Wang Hanlin said in a deep voice: "Obey." ”

Emperor Wen Zhao opened his eyes, looked at Li Qiong and said: "Another decree is to announce to the world, the fourth prince Li Qiong will be named Prince Cheng, and the specific reward will be discussed after King Ning succeeds to the throne." ”

"Whoa."

Empress Dowager Chen couldn't cry anymore, she looked at Li Qiong on the side, opened her mouth but couldn't say a word.

She turned her gaze to Emperor Wen Zhao and said in a dumb voice, "Xian'er, you...... But what else do you have to say to the queen mother? ”

Emperor Wen Zhao turned his eyes and looked at her quietly, but in the end he only said one word: "None." ”

Empress Dowager Chen was stunned when she heard this, looking at the look in his eyes, guilt and remorse surged.

Emperor Wen Zhao had already looked away, and stretched out his hand to Li Qiong with difficulty: "Fourth...... Fourth Brother ......"

Li Qiong immediately stepped forward, held his hand, and said in a dumb voice, "I'm here." ”

Emperor Wen Zhao grabbed his hand tightly and said in a dumb voice: "It's me...... I'm sorry for you, if there is an afterlife...... Sincere...... May you and I still be ...... It's ......"

The word brother was submerged between his lips and teeth, and Emperor Wen Zhao's hand hung down weakly, and he slowly closed his eyes.

"Your Majesty!"

In the seventh year of Yonghe, Emperor Xu, Li Yu, King of Ning, succeeded to the throne.

The former crown prince Li Zhao was demoted to a commoner and expelled from the capital, and he was not allowed to enter Beijing within three generations.

The original queen Ma Yuyan was abolished, and she was not allowed to be buried in the imperial mausoleum after her death, and there were more than 70 charges in the Ma State Mansion, of which there were two, one was to kill the king, and the other was to murder the four princes, and was sentenced to be beheaded.

The eldest son of the emperor who was guarding the Zongren Mansion committed the crime of rebellion and was executed.

The capital is under martial law, and the temples and palaces in the city ring the bell 30,000 times to show their mourning.

When the dust settled, Li Yu did not succeed to the throne immediately, but temporarily handled state affairs as King Ning.

The courtiers begged Li Yu to succeed to the throne on the grounds that the country could not be without a king for a day, but Li Yu threw out the edict of the first emperor and said lightly: "If this king wants to succeed to the throne, he will succeed to the throne at the beginning, Xin Guifei is pregnant, and it will not be too late after she gives birth." ”

Everyone held the edict of the first emperor, and then they knew that this was the second time that Li Yu had received the edict and asked him to ascend the throne.

Xie Wan and Empress Dowager Chen, the eldest princess and others, kept a vigil together for seven days, because Li Yu did not succeed to the throne, so the title in the palace has not changed.

Xin Qingwan's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she came to the vigil for an hour every day, and then Xie Wan sent her back to rest.

Li Qiong followed Li Yu to deal with government affairs, and the Empress Dowager Chen wanted to talk to him several times, but he avoided it, and after seven days, Li Qiong still did not call the queen mother.

The eldest princess also knew the cause and effect of what happened back then, and she didn't say good things for Empress Dowager Chen, but only went to see Li Qiong from time to time, wanting to cultivate a relationship with him.

Empress Dowager Chen is immersed in the pain of losing her son, but the more she grieves now, the more hurtful it is for Li Qiong.

After all, they are all sons, but the treatment is very different.

Xie Wan didn't talk to the Empress Dowager Chen much, she was not a generous person, and that slap was a slap that knocked out her idea of treating the Empress Dowager Chen as her own mother.

Li Yu was busy and dark, and he could only seize the time to stick with Xie Wan when he was resting.

Of course, the time for sticking is also very short, but it is just a hug to replenish some energy and continue to work.

The seven-day period has arrived, and when she rests at night, Li Yu hugged Xie Wan and buried her head in her arms, and sighed: "Can't you just stay in the palace?" ”

Xie Wan reached out and held his face with some amusement, looked at him and said, "Stupid words, my identity is not suitable to stay at the moment, and besides, I have to go back to the palace to deal with some things." ”

Li Yu snorted, and buried his head in her arms and said: "I know that you don't want to be trapped in the harem, if Xin Qingwan can give birth to a prince, then ......."

"I do."

Li Yu was stunned when he heard this, raised his eyes to look at her and said, "You ......"

Xie Wan smiled at him: "You heard me right, I said I am willing." ”

She sighed lightly and said, "You and I don't want to be trapped in the palace, but whether it's for the people of the world or for ourselves, we have to embark on this road." Even if Concubine Xin gives birth to a prince, how can you guarantee that he is suitable for that position? ”

"What's more, how many regents can have a good end? When he grows up, if someone instigates us, not only will we not be able to do well, but we will also cause a lot of trouble. To put it bluntly, he is the emperor, so the government should have been given to him, and the people of the world will only think that it should be. ”

"But if you are the emperor and pass on the throne to him, the world will be another evaluation, and his mentality will be different. We discussed this before, and you said that you would not let me lose, and I also said that I believe you, so you will ascend the throne. ”

If the two can really last a long time, there is not much difference between them and not in that position, and if they can't, one identity can't decide anything.

Li Yu looked at her deeply when he heard this: "You really decided?" ”

Xie Wan nodded: "It's decided." ”

Li Yu pecked her lightly on the lips: "Okay, listen to you." Go back and pack up, and welcome you into the palace in five days. ”

Xie Wan hummed, and the two hugged each other and fell asleep.

During the mourning period, they can only sleep a little, of course, the two of them are not in the mood at this time.

After the dust settled, the people returned to their old lives, and the streets were lively again, because it was a mourning period, all happy events and banquets were suspended, and the people on the streets were talking about the Ma family, and the tea shop was the most lively.

After Xie Wan left the palace, she did not return to the palace immediately, but went to the Hou Mansion first.

Although Li Yu has not ascended the throne, her edict has been announced to the world, so her current identity is not the same as before.

Now even the subordinates of the Hou Mansion looked at Xie Wan with a little more awe and respect.

Xie Wan summoned Steward Fang and Wang Pu and asked them about the affairs of the house these days.

Steward Fang said: "After the princess left, everything in the house was in order according to the princess's instructions, and there were no accidents. ”

Xie Wan nodded: "What about the Yu family?" What's unusual about coming back? ”

Steward Fang shook his head: "Aunt Yu was frightened, and after returning home, she stayed in the courtyard and never took half a step. ”

Xie Wan turned her eyes to look at Wang Pu: "Little Marquis, how are they?" ”

Wang Pu said respectfully: "Everything is fine with the little marquis, after the eldest prince came back, he practiced and studied with the little marquis, but the little lady was called to accompany Aunt Yu and did not join them again." ”
