"The head of the house, someone from the palace summoned you in, and the tone was urgent."

"Got it."

Su Mingxiu agreed, got up from the bed and put on his official uniform.

"Su Xiang, hurry up, Your Majesty can't wait."

Seeing Su Mingxiu come out, the eunuch outside spoke hurriedly, and his voice trembled.

"Who is in the palace now?" Su Mingxiu's speed of speech was not hurried, but the movements under his feet were much faster.

"The Zongren Order and the Chen Sacrifice Wine are here, and Your Majesty is waiting for you."

At this time, in the emperor's bedroom, the old emperor was lying on the bed coughing, and an eighteen-year-old girl stood by the bed and anxiously watched the imperial doctor apply needles and medicines.

"Your Majesty, the prince is related to the foundation of the country, please make a prince."

An old man in a pale cyan Confucian robe, with a straight face.

"Ahem, I'm not dead yet."

There was another violent cough, and the old emperor looked at the old man with a hideous face.

"Your Majesty, we also know your body, you better choose the prince as soon as possible." It was a middle-aged man who spoke.

"Ahem, wait for the prime minister, and when the prime minister comes, I will immediately set up a prince."

The middle-aged words made the old emperor have to pay attention, and he could only sigh helplessly.

"Then wait for Su Mingxiu." Middle-aged people also stopped talking.

'Squeak~'

"Your Majesty, the prime minister is here."

"Let the prime minister in!" The old emperor seemed to have seen a savior.

"Your Majesty."

Su Mingxiu ignored Zongren Ling and Chen Xuewen and walked to the old emperor's bed.

"Prime Minister, I want to establish a prince." The old emperor's tone was eager, as if every second was his last in this world.

"Whoa."

A eunuch moved over the table and chair, and brought all the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

"The beginning of the five movements...... Inherit the ancestors, start the people, the princess knows the subtleties, and she has a destiny to become a ......"

"Your Majesty!"

Before the old emperor could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Xuewen.

It's just that although the old emperor's words were interrupted, Su Mingxiu's pen did not stop.

has been a monarch and minister with the old emperor for so long, Su Mingxiu has already figured out the old emperor thoroughly, even if it is a look, Su Mingxiu knows what he wants to express.

"Your Majesty, the minister is ready."

Su Mingxiu took the holy decree and showed it to the old emperor.

"Hmm." The old emperor nodded, and took out the jade seal under the pillow to seal the holy decree.

"Your Majesty, the emperor's position has been occupied by men since ancient times, and it is really a great rebellion for you to appoint a woman as the emperor!" Chen Xuewen didn't care about the Nine Clans.

"I only have one heir, Zhiwei, and the world is naturally going to be handed over to her." The old emperor said.

"Your Majesty, there are many outstanding children in the clan, and I will give you one as a successor." Zongren Ling said.

"Eighth Ancestor, this world is mine!"

"Ahem, ahem!" The old emperor coughed violently.

"Your Majesty, this world is not only yours, but also our clan." Zongren Ling said indifferently.

"Eighth Patriarch, say something rebellious. As long as the emperor's position is the blood of the Li family, why do you care if it is a man or a woman. Su Mingxiu said.

Zongren Ling glanced at Su Mingxiu and was quite jealous of him.

"It's been like this since ancient times."

"The ancient law can also be changed. Moreover, according to the ancient law, the Zongren Mansion cannot participate in politics and cannot influence the emperor, and the Eight Ancestors have violated the ancestral law. ”

The Eight Ancestors closed their eyes and stopped talking.

He didn't really care if the emperor was male or female, even a dog.

He came out just to let the emperor set up a prince, and then witness the new emperor ascend the throne. When I opened my mouth just now, I just felt that the 'empress' was a little strange.

"Crooked ......"

"Isn't Chen Xijiu not sober-minded? Someone comes, pull out the old sacrificial wine. Su Mingxiu beckoned to the guards outside the door.

"Su Mingxiu, you will stink for 10,000 years like this!"

When Chen Xuewen was dragged out, he still complained about Su Mingxiu's domineering.

Su Mingxiu turned his gaze to a young official who had been staying in the room and had no sense of existence.

"Prime Minister, the lower officials will truthfully record your behavior in the history books." The young official spoke indifferently and was not afraid of the powerful.

"It's just a little stigma, I don't care."

Su Mingxiu shook his head casually.

"Let Zixiu block the stigma for me this time, it's me who is sorry for Zixiu." The old emperor spoke.

"That's what a minister should do."

Looking at the young and resolute Su Mingxiu, the old emperor smiled with feeling.

"I really have more scruples as I get older, if I was young, that Chen Xuewen would have been dragged out and beheaded by me. It's a pity that when he was dying, he just wanted to leave a good reputation in the history books, and he was timid. ”

The old emperor said to himself.

"Zhiwei, come here."

"Father."

Li Zhiwei walked to the bedside.

The old emperor put Chen Zhiwei's hand on Su Mingxiu's hand.

"Zixiu, if I don't do it, I will leave Zhiwei to you to take care of in the future."

"The minister bowed and died."

"Then I can rest assured." The old emperor breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Mingxiu has been with his monarch and minister for twenty years, and he knows Su Mingxiu well. Su Mingxiu is not lacking in ability, and he is also very relieved of his loyalty to the old emperor.

With Su Mingxiu taking care of Zhiwei, the court has no worries.

"Someone."

The old emperor shouted, and a eunuch came over with a wooden whip.

"This whip of the emperor is given to Zixiu, if the emperor is not virtuous, he will be whipped with it."

Su Mingxiu looked at the whip and nodded solemnly.

"Whoa!"

……

"The sacrifice is completed, please accept the seal of the new emperor, and from then on inherit the favor of the yellow sky, the holy flood forest, and the herdsmen on behalf of the sky."

Under the witness of hundreds of officials, Su Mingxiu handed the jade seal, which symbolized imperial power, to Li Zhiwei. Since then, she has been the titular emperor of Dachu and the only female emperor in history.

"I hope Your Majesty will not live up to the expectations of the previous emperor."

"I won't."

Li Zhiwei nodded firmly.

Her father passed the throne to herself under great pressure, and she must make political achievements to let the ministers and the people know that her father's decision was not wrong.

In the evening, after the major events of the past few days, Li Zhiwei finally had time to pounce on the bed.

"Father."

Li Zhi murmured slightly, and tears were left in the corners of his eyes.

"I have to cheer up, now there is no one to stand up for myself."

Li Zhiwei stood up and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

She has been a princess for eighteen years, although the old emperor also taught her some ways to govern the country in ordinary times.

But for those teachings, Li Zhiwei has always been left ear in and out of right ear. I have a little impression of some of the ways of governing the country, but I am only a little impressed.

She slapped her head frantically, hating herself for not working hard at the beginning.

"My father said that the prime minister is capable, and he can consult him. And when my father made himself the empress, in addition to that Chen Xuewen, there were many people who opposed it. It was he who supported himself against all odds, and he should be trustworthy. ”

Although he didn't have much contact with the prime minister, he was deeply trusted by his father, and his father personally entrusted himself to the prime minister.

Well, Su Mingxiu is definitely a royalist.
