Volume 2 The Tiger Returns to the Mountains Chapter 317 Struggle for power and position
"Grandpa Sun, is there anyone else who hasn't arrived? If everyone is together, let's start!" Gong Hanlin said.
As soon as Gong Hanlin said this, everyone moved their eyes to Grandpa Sun, waiting for Grandpa Sun's reply.
"Master Gong, don't be impatient, my father-in-law hasn't arrived yet, maybe there is something delayed! Please bear with me!" The person who spoke was Jing Hong's third sister Jing Lian.
"Why hasn't the King of Chengling come yet? It is understandable that the Fourth Highness has been late for seven days, after all, His Royal Highness has been filial piety for seven days, and he is physically and mentally exhausted, but is it difficult for the King of Chengling to also keep filial piety for seven days?
Jing Lian's face changed, and she said coldly: "Lord Gong, don't be untrustworthy, my husband is loyal to his father, how can he rebel!
Scholar Wang didn't want to listen to the two of them quarrel any longer, and said indifferently: "Don't quarrel anymore! Today is not the day of quarreling, if Your Majesty's spirit in heaven knows that you are making trouble for each other here, wouldn't it make Your Majesty die blindly!"
Gong Hanlin flicked his sleeve robe and snorted coldly, and said no more. The third princess, Jing Lian, glanced at Gong Hanlin and stopped talking. Scholar Wang turned his head to Grandpa Sun and said, "Grandpa Sun, don't wait, let's start!"
Gonggong Sun nodded, ignoring Jing Lian's angry expression, and shouted loudly with a wave of dust: "Recite the past, burn paper money, burn incense and candles, and burn the lantern!"
The yellow paper is flying all over the sky, the candles are bright, and all the officials kneel on the ground together, crying bitterly!
"Get out of the coffin, be buried!" Sun Gonggong then shouted.
The dragon-patterned coffin was buried, and the corpses of the twenty-six concubines were buried in turn for the emperor! Countless treasures and funeral goods were dazzling, and the heart was swaying!
Gonggong Sun turned around and knelt down facing the coffin, kowtowed to the ground, and choked up with sorrow: "Congratulations to Your Majesty!
"Congratulations to Your Majesty! May Your Majesty go all the way!" the hundred officials said in unison.
"The prince bows down to repay his father's kindness!"
As soon as Grandpa Sun said this, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became solemn. It's not that Grandpa Sun said something wrong, that when the emperor is buried, it is the rule for the prince to bow down, but the problem is that the emperor has not left an edict, and the civil and military officials don't even know who the prince has set up! The prince bows down, so who is the prince? Who should bow down?
When the Manchu Dynasty was pondering, Jing Hong said aloud without hesitation: "Jing Hong kneels down to worship his father's grace, and his father goes all the way!" As soon as the words fell, he bowed three times to the imperial mausoleum, with a solemn and solemn expression!
"What does the fourth brother mean by this? What Grandpa Sun shouted is the prince kneeling, does the fourth brother just think of himself as the prince?" said the six princes on the side in a weird manner.
"Yes, where did the fourth brother put the other royal brothers in this way? As far as I know, my father did not leave an edict, why did the fourth brother consider himself a prince?" Jing Lian also replied on the side.
The corners of Jing Hong's mouth were slightly hooked, and he slowly got up and dusted off his pants. Facing the angry sister and brother, he smiled, and said lightly: "Dare to ask the third sister and sixth brother, why is it wrong for the eldest son appointed by the prince?"
"There's nothing wrong with it, but you, Jing Hong, aren't the eldest son!" Jing Lian said coldly.
As soon as Jing Lian's words came out, the sixth prince secretly said in his heart that it was not good, he seemed to know what Jing Hong was going to say! Sure enough, Jing Hong smiled and said: "Let me ask the third sister, now the eldest brother and the second brother are deceased, and the third sister you are just spilling water, although I, Jing Hong, am the fourth child, but now I am the eldest son! I worship my father, what's wrong?"
"You....!" Jing Lian glared at Jing Hong angrily, but she didn't know what to say!
"Your Royal Highness's words are wrong!" Scholar Wang suddenly said aside.
Jing Hong frowned as he looked at Scholar Wang, who suddenly spoke, with a chill in his eyes, but this chill was fleeting, Jing Hongyun asked with a smile, "What's the difference?"
"It's good that the Fourth Highness is the eldest son now, but the Fourth Highness is not the eldest son! The eldest son is the first, and the eldest is the last! The eldest son is not the first, and the eldest is not the young! According to such rules, it should be the Ninth Highness who is the crown prince, unless the Fourth Highness can get His Majesty's edict, then it is another matter!" Wang Chuan said lightly.
"Yes, I also think that His Royal Highness Jiu should be appointed as the new emperor!"
"His Royal Highness the Ninth is a descendant, and the crown prince is naturally His Royal Highness the Nine!"
"I didn't expect the four princes to want to usurp the throne, their hearts can be punished!"
......
For a while, there was a fierce discussion in the crowd, most of them were praising the Nine Emperors and belittling the Four Princes, in the face of such a quarrel, Jing Hong handled it calmly, and his face didn't even change.
The Nine Emperor Princes stood beside Jing Lian, looking around curiously with a pair of big eyes like grapes, as if they didn't know what these people were arguing about. He raised his head and looked at Jing Lian beside him, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Third sister, what are you talking about?"
Jing Lian squatted down and rubbed the head of the Nine Emperor Princes and said softly: "Everyone wants you to be the emperor! This throne should have been yours, but your fourth brother refused, so he wanted to fight with you!"
"Since the fourth brother wants it, then give it to the fourth brother! Shan'er doesn't want to be any emperor, Shan'er wants to sell sugar gourds!" said the Nine Emperors innocently.
Jing Lian glared at the words of the Nine Emperor Princes and said angrily: "Nonsense! You are the only son of the father and the queen mother! You can only sit on this throne, and no one else can sit on it! You are not allowed to mention the matter of selling sugar gourds in the future! You are the prince, not the kind of peddler and pawn that can be compared! As long as you become the emperor, you can have as many sugar gourds as you want!"
The Nine Emperor Princes nodded aggrievedly, although they were reluctant in their hearts, but because of the third sister's obscenity, they had no choice but to agree.
Jing Lian's words came to Jing Hong's ears word for word, Jing Hong sighed, sure enough, as he guessed, the ninth brother didn't have the heart to be the emperor at all, this innocent brother was just persecuted, he didn't know anything in his heart!
Jing Hong looked at the noisy crowd in front of him, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face, he clapped his hands lightly, and said lightly: "Let them be quiet." ”
"Subordinates obey!"
The king of equality held his breath in his chest and gushed out.
"Roar!"
The tiger's roar resounded between the heavens and the earth, deafening!
Everyone was stunned by this tiger roar, and looked at the black-robed masked man beside Jing Hong blankly, and they didn't know who recognized the King of Equality first, and exclaimed: "Ten... Ten Halls of Yama!"
The crowd instantly exploded after hearing this name, although these civil and military officials had never seen the Ten Hall Yama, but they had heard of the name of the Ten Hall Yama!
Isn't that the inseparable master by His Majesty's side! How can he follow the Four Princes now?!
Jing Hong glanced at these frightened officials with disdain, and Yun Danfeng said lightly: "Grandpa Sun, take out the edict!"
"Yes!"
Gonggong Sun slowly took out a golden scroll, skillfully unfolded it and read aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict ......"
