In order to deal with the current chaos, settle the turmoil, and let Wu Beikun succeed to the throne smoothly, Empress Dowager Huang asked Wu Shizheng to come forward and present to the ministers that he was unwilling to succeed to the throne and pushed it many times, so that Wu Shizhong had to pass the throne to his son.

"Your imperial brother originally wanted to return the throne to you, but you repeatedly refused, and you were recalled in a critical illness this time and did not return. For the sake of the world, you should make clear your wish to abdicate to the ministers, so as to conform to the people's hearts and calm the situation. ”

Although Wu Shizheng was not born to the Empress Dowager Huang, he was born without a biological mother, and he was raised by the Huang family, so he treated the Huang family as his own mother, and he always obeyed his words and did not dare to disobey.

The next morning, Wu Shizheng read out the "Letter to the Ministers" to the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, indicating his intention to abdicate the throne and support Wu Beikun to succeed to the throne. Empress Dowager Huang announced in court that the enthronement ceremony would be held ten days later.

Next, Wu Shizheng also lobbied everywhere to appease everyone, accept the current reality, and work together to resonate with the dynasty, especially the Yuwen family.

Although the Yuwen family has been in decline since the death of the Great Prime Minister Yuwenbo, the status of the Yuwen family in the court is declining, and the officials with the surname Yuwen who are ministers in the court have been excluded and suppressed, and they have all moved out of important positions and gradually marginalized. Now that the youngest daughter of the Yuwen family has finally married into the royal family, she is still the heir to the throne of Qin, and she can climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, but she is suddenly affected by this variable, which is difficult to accept.

The rebellion of the king of Zhenxi made the court very uneasy, and he was even more worried about Yuwen Haotian, the king of Zhenbei stationed in the northern region. At the signal of the Queen Mother, Wu Shizheng immediately sent a message, asking Yuwen Haotian to rush back immediately to participate in the enthronement ceremony, and prepare a generous gift to show his loyalty.

After receiving the letter, King Yuwen immediately raised all kinds of rare treasures in the Western Regions and outside the Saiwai, exotic customs and specialties, etc., and loaded more than 100 carts, and selected nearly 100 people who could sing and dance in Tufan, and rehearsed a grand performance to show the scene of ethnic harmony in the Northern Regions.

In order to ensure that the ceremony could arrive on the same day, all the materials and personnel were transported by carriage, and King Yuwen led 200 soldiers to escort them personally, non-stop, day and night, and went straight to the capital.

The convoy finally arrived in front of the palace in Youjing on the day of the ceremony, and smoothly entered the front door, after passing through the noon gate, the convoy was put into the Weiyang Palace, and then passed through two palaces, and arrived at the Jinkun Hall where the enthronement ceremony was held.

After the convoy entered the gate of Weiyang Palace, suddenly the front and rear city gates were closed, hundreds of carriages were locked in the palace city, it seemed a little crowded, the city was full of soldiers standing in a moment, holding bows and arrows, aimed at the convoy under the city, at this time someone shouted: King Yuwen rebelled, and brought the Tufan army into the palace to assassinate!

Suddenly, burning oil bottles and rosin jars were thrown down from the city, and the carriages were set on fire, and the horses were burned so that they screamed and neighed, and ran wildly.

Among them, nearly ten carriages were loaded with nearly 100 artists, who jumped out of the carriage and ran around in the smoke, at a loss for a while.

"The local barbarians will all correct the law on the spot, leaving no living mouth. With the commander's order, thousands of arrows flew over the city, shooting hundreds of people under the city on the spot.

The two hundred soldiers brought by King Yuwen escorted King Yuwen to retreat to the palace gate with shields and bodies, and a dozen or so soldiers dragged a burning carriage to the palace gate, burned the closed palace gate, and then smashed a big hole with his body, and then protected King Yuwen to fight his way out of the siege.

"When I struggled to get out of the south gate of the capital, looking back, there were less than twenty soldiers left with me, all of them were wounded, and a large number of pursuers caught up behind, so I led the remnants to flee in the direction of the northern region, and ran for nearly a hundred miles in one breath before stopping. King Yuwen recalled the scene at that time.

"Seeing that the pursuers did not continue to come, we temporarily stayed in Fenglin Town, which is not far from the capital, and sent people to sneak into the capital to find out the news. ”

As a result, the Malay newspaper said: It turned out that on the same day, the Tianji Department submitted an online report to the emperor that I had hidden thousands of soldiers in chariots, including hundreds of Tufan warriors, and wanted to assassinate the new emperor during the enthronement ceremony and seize the world. Someone told the emperor that I used these chariots to hide my troops and surprise attack the Turkic 10,000 cavalry troops to win a surprise victory, and today I want to use this to murder the royal family, which is an unforgivable crime. It's really a great shame that my dignified King of Zhenbei actually recruited a villain to frame him like this!" King Yuwen said very sadly.

"The bigger bad cry is that on the enthronement ceremony that day, the emperor actually ordered all the people of the Yuwen family who were watching the ceremony to be killed on the spot, and not a single one was left alive. What's even more hateful is that my little sister Mingzhu because she has been in labor, did not go to the scene to participate in the ceremony, Tianji Department actually sent five masters, led hundreds of tiger Ben army to Yuwen Xiangfu, to arrest her, when Mingzhu just gave birth to a son, he got up and fought with the enemy, under the cover of hundreds of families and maids in Yuwen's family, he fought hard to get out of the encirclement, drove a carriage, and wanted to go west to join the king of Zhenxi, who had just rebelled. King Yuwen recounted the past in a deep voice.

"Mingzhu's little sister did not escape the devil's grasp in the end, it is said that after entering the Wangping Mountains, she was caught up by the pursuers, but before she was killed, my little sister actually swallowed the biological son who had just given birth to the dragon seed of the Son of Heaven! What a tragic thing! This revenge is not avenged, how can it be a human being!" Speaking of this, the grief-stricken Yuwen King smashed his fist on the battlements of the city wall, and suddenly the wall bricks burst and fell to the ground.

After listening to King Yuwen's story, Chu Weixian opened his mouth for a while, unable to believe his ears. "What about Wu Shizhong, didn't he intervene?" he asked after coming back to his senses.

"Wu Shizhong disappeared without a trace at the ceremony that day, and I have been looking for his traces all these years, and I have not received any news so far. ”

"Alas!" Chu Weixian sighed, bowed his head and was speechless. He really didn't expect that behind King Yuwen's rebellion, there was such a big unjust case and hidden secret, and the family feud and blood hatred in the middle were much greater than King Zhenxi's dissatisfaction with the court.

Moreover, for the sake of the well-being of the people of the Central Plains, King Yuwen has been stationed at the border pass of the Northern Regions, preventing Tufan from taking advantage of the situation. It is not to join forces with the Tufan State to capture the Central Plains, overthrow the imperial court, and have a blood feud. What a kind of open-mindedness, and what kind of forbearance is needed!

Chu Weixian's eyes were in tears for a while, looking at the iron man in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a burst of reverence in his heart.
