The emperor died, and the death knell rang for a long time......

Su Nianyun, who was sitting in Su's house, also let out a long sigh.

This day overlapped with the days she remembered.

It's just that in her previous life, she didn't know that the person who was nominally called the imperial brother by her would die so miserably.

The only thing she can do is to stay by the Queen Mother's side, take good care of her and comfort her.

However, the Queen Mother, who has not been seen for three or two days, is much older.

But Su Nianyun also noticed that the light in the Queen Mother's eyes had not faded, and there was even hatred.

Because of the defection of the six princes, Shunyang has rarely appeared by the Queen Mother's side recently, but goes to Zhao Chengli every day to be courteous.

Without him, it is not because the edict of the former emperor "passed on to Liuzili", not the current crown prince Zhao Chengji.

The Queen Mother was succeeded by Zhao Chengli, who was the most opposed, so naturally Shunyang did not dare to accompany the Queen Mother anymore.

Regarding Shunyang's performance, Murong Jing didn't care.

She has been betrayed by her dearest son, and no matter how much her grandson and granddaughter betray her, they can't hurt her anything.

Moreover, Su Nianyun's day and night companionship did offset a lot of heartache.

Three days later, in front of the emperor's coffin.

The historian officially read the edict in front of the civil and military officials who came to bow down.

There was no surprise on the faces of the ministers who knelt on the ground, as if they had expected the outcome.

After the historian finished reading the edict, Zhao Chengli's heart could be settled.

Now that everything has been done, all that remains is for him to ascend the throne as the new emperor, after which he can officially sit on the dragon chair and deal with various court affairs.

Who knew that just when he thought that it was safe to read out the edict, Zhao Chengji, who was plain, walked over with the Queen Mother.

Zhao Chengli was taken aback, he clearly asked people to look at the Queen Mother and didn't let her come to the front hall.

Also, Zhao Chengji actually followed.

The ministers hurriedly saluted Murong Jing.

Murong Jing didn't look at them, but looked straight at Zhao Chengli.

"There is a crown prince in the court, and the first emperor can still write an edict to pass on the six princes, don't you really think it's strange?"

Most of these people have been bought by Zhao Chengli, most of them are silent, and the few people who can't see the situation clearly naturally don't dare to speak out.

"Queen Mother, no, Queen Mother, I heard that you have been unwell, and I can't help but be sad again, I think you should go back and rest as soon as possible."

In the past, when there was the former prince Zhao Chengzhi, the queen mother favored Zhao Chengzhi.

After Zhao Chengji became the crown prince, although the empress dowager didn't like him either, she didn't like herself either, but cared more about Lao Jiu than him.

Zhao Chengli couldn't understand why the Queen Mother looked down on him so much, he was obviously also her grandson.

Immediately, he looked at Zhao Chengji next to him.

"Chengji, you are still in the period of grounding, thinking that your father died, and you left the palace and entered the palace in a hurry, I will not cure your crimes."

"Hurry up and take the Queen Mother back to rest in peace, if the Queen Mother falls ill because of this, I will only ask you."

Zhao Chengji snorted coldly, "Sixth Emperor Brother, your wishful thinking is too loud. ”

"I am a dignified prince, even during the lockdown period, how can you wipe out an edict that you don't know whether it is true or false?"

"The edict was written by your father, and you are not allowed to question it," Zhao Chengli said, "If you don't believe it, go forward and check, you have been by your father's side for so long, his handwriting must be recognized." ”

Regarding the matter of the edict, Zhao Chengli is extremely confident.

Because before the Queen Mother and Zhao Chengji came, other historians and princesses had already read the edict, and they couldn't see the problem.

In this way, he became completely confident.

Zhao Chengli handed over the edict to Zhao Chengji, but Zhao Chengji did not step forward to pick it up, but always stood in place to support the Queen Mother.

"How?" Zhao Chengli smiled, "Don't dare to come and pick it up?" ”

It seems that he knows that there are masters in ambush around him, and as long as he dares to come over and see the slightest doubt from the holy decree, he is ready to take his life directly.

He had already prepared a dagger at his waist, as long as Zhao Chengji was close, he would stab himself with the dagger when no one was paying attention, and then take the opportunity to blame Zhao Chengji, so that killing him would be famous.

It's a pity that the guy wasn't fooled.

"Chengji, since you suspect the edict, you have to come forward to identify it in person, if you don't come forward, how can you know that this is not what your father meant?"

Zhao Chengli added a fire.

"This edict is the true handiwork of my father, I am the one who inherited the unification recognized by my father, in the past, my father named you the crown prince, that is a ...... of unclear people"

Zhao Chengji shook his head, "Sixth Emperor Brother, before I reveal the real facts, I will give you a chance to reflect on yourself." ”

"As long as you can confess your mistakes, the imperial grandmother will spare your life."

"What did you say?"

Zhao Chengli seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.

"I'm already the new monarch now, but I don't want to call myself like this before my father is mourned, you dare to threaten me with the empress dowager?"

Zhao Chengji's eyes became cold when he looked at Zhao Chengli.

"Sixth Emperor Brother, since you have to do this, there is no need for this prince to personally come forward to verify the authenticity of his father's edict, someone will distinguish it for me."

"Hehe......"

Zhao Chengli didn't believe this sentence at all.

After all, the most knowledgeable person in the court walked here, and he did not believe that there was anyone else who could verify the authenticity of the edict.

No, when that person walked into the mourning hall, Zhao Chengli was stunned.

The person who came was none other than Sun Moushi, who had been killed by his subordinates.

What's going on?

Clearly......

Zhao Chengli, who was holding the edict, was stunned on the spot.

Sun Moushi said, "Sixth prince, you can't think of it, even I didn't think of it. ”

"You, you ......"

"When you sent someone to kill me, I was also going to die calmly, and even if the prince sent someone to save me, I wasn't going to say anything......"

"But you shouldn't have sent someone to kill my wife and children! They don't know anything, they're innocent! ”

"Sixth Prince, if I had known that helping you forge the edict of the former emperor would not only cost my life, but also the life of my whole family, I would definitely not have done it!"

Seeing that the eyes of the ministers were all on him, Zhao Chengli gritted his teeth, "What nonsense are you talking about!" ”

"This is the emperor's own edict, what does it have to do with you, who were you bribed by, and dare to blame me so boldly?"

What if this guy forged the edict, there were only two of them in the hall at that time, and even the historians and eunuchs couldn't tell the truth of the edict, just relying on Sun Moushi's mouth, okay?

Sun Moushi smiled miserably, "I dare to say, naturally there is evidence. ”

Zhao Chengli's face changed.

I only heard Sun Moushi continue, "It was originally just a vague stroke, I thought that the secret of my death would be buried deep with me, but my family died in front of me......"
