Chapter 184: Abdication (Part 1)

The palace, the palace looks much simpler and simple, with a few rays of moonlight piercing the empty hall

"What happened? Why did I suddenly feel so uneasy?" The emperor walked back and forth in the palace.

Under the lights, the young emperor was actually very handsome, with a long and elegant body, but his face was pale and blue, as if he was too much wine.

The emperor wanted to know what happened outside, but now there was no one or authority in his hands.

As the emperor of Dayan, there is not even one who can drive his confidant. What a sad thing this is!

Feeling the uneasiness in his heart, the emperor could no longer stay and walked out of the hall.

"Please stay!" An imperial guard general guarding outside the hall stood up and said expressionlessly. Although he saluted the emperor, this awesome attitude made the emperor's face flushed suddenly.

"I just feel stuffy in the hall and feel bad. I want to go to the imperial garden to make a move..." The emperor held back his breath and said in a gentle tone.

Rather than giving orders, it is to ask the other party to let go.

After all, he was still the emperor in power. The Imperial Army General thought for a moment and knew that he could not do too much, so he nodded and said, "The situation in the city is now chaotic. Even the palace is not very safe at night. Your Majesty is not safe for traveling. Please let me accompany you to protect you."

"The general is a loyal man, I can't bother the general." The emperor felt very distressed. This was not a place to protect him, it was obviously a surveillance!

But in the end, he was dependent on others and had no power or soldiers in his hands, so he had to speak softly, hoping that the other party would not have to follow him.

The Imperial General refused, smiled faintly, and said, "What did Your Majesty say? It is my responsibility to protect Your Majesty's safety, please!"

Seeing this, the emperor had to give up. It would be better to be able to go out and go around in the hall than to be bored.

The darkness in the sky was dark late at night, but the stars and the moon were extremely bright.

He raised his head and looked at the stars and moon above his head. The little emperor stood there and sighed: "It's so beautiful! It's so sad!"

I feel that the beauty of stars and moon is caused by the prosperity of the night sky. When it comes to the word "sadness", I feel sad.

I think that the bright moon in the sky will always be there.

However, the Great Yan Dynasty was already at its end.

Things in the world have no lasting long.

The emperor once naively believed that he would be the lord of the revival of the Great Yan, but as his confidants gradually decreased, until he was completely imprisoned in the huge deep palace and no longer able to change the fate of the Great Yan and his own destiny, his mood began to change from expectation to insensitive.

Even casual jokes would soon be heard by Wei Yue. In this case, the last monarch of Dayan could only use the moon to express his depressed and sad feelings.

The general beside him stood there, watching his every move.

The little emperor sighed in his heart and walked towards the garden.

As soon as he walked to the garden, someone ran over from a distance and shouted: "Your Highness, the King of Wu, have arrived outside the hall. Please return quickly!"

As soon as these words came to my ears, my already chaotic heart became more and more panicked.

Why did King Wei Yue of Wu come to this deep palace late at night?

What happened outside?

The emperor, who was completely trapped in the deep palace and knew nothing about what happened outside, was stunned at this time, and his heart shrank even more instinctively.

A rich anxiety emerged.

The following general of the Imperial Guard asked a few questions at the visitor, then stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, since Your Highness, the King of Wu has arrived outside the hall, Your Majesty should go back quickly."

The emperor was under the eaves and dared not bow his head, so he could only follow him back.

As soon as I arrived in front of the hall where I lived, I saw the bright lights of Danbao from afar, and I saw the figure of King Wei Yue of Wu.

But what came was not just King Wu, Wei Yue and some attendants, who accompanied King Wu, and there were a large number of guards. First of all, there were hundreds of guards standing on the steps, holding long swords.

In the hall, red candles were lit in their directions, and dozens of guards lined up in a row. Just one glance over, the emperor's legs became a little weak.

"Your Majesty..." The people beside him urged.

Although the emperor was afraid, he still walked towards King Wu Wei Yue.

"Your Majesty, where did you go if you don't sleep late at night?"

The King of Wu, wearing a crown robes, was tall and had a strange appearance. When he asked, he was very majestic. Just one sentence made the emperor's face turn pale.

"I just felt stuffy in the hall, so I went around the garden..." the little emperor replied carefully.

King Wei Yue of Wu did not continue to ask questions, but said, "I have something to report to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to come in and talk."

"Just, just follow the King of Wu." How dare the emperor say no, so he had to continue to say carefully.

"Please leave first." King Wei Yue of Wu said with a smile.

The emperor, who was so scared that his body shivered by this laughter, did not dare to resist and walked into the hall.

King Wei Yue of Wu followed closely, and only brought a general in, and others stayed outside.

"Come tea to the King of Wu..."

"No need. Let them all go down. I want to tell Your Majesty some secret matters. The matter is urgent and it is not easy for them to know." Wei Yue waved his hand lightly and said.

"You guys retreat first!" the little emperor said to the people on both sides.

These people were actually Wei Yue's people. They retreated immediately without the emperor's words. In just a moment, there was nothing else in the hall except the guards in the distance.

"King of Wu, what's the matter when I'm here late at night?" At this time, he had already made the worst plan. Instead, the emperor calmed down. He saw everyone down and said to the seated King of Wu Wei Yue.

"Your Majesty, do you know why I have not come to visit Your Majesty a few months ago?" Wei Yue said.

The emperor shook his head, smiled bitterly, and said, "The King of Wu has worked hard and made great contributions. I must have gone to fight against the rebels. I am ashamed that I cannot support the King of Wu in time."

"Your Majesty is only young, so there is no need to blame yourself so much." Wei Yue said lightly: "I took the Wu Navy to Jiangling a few months ago and fought with the Shu thieves. It's just that the destiny is very hard, so I only won a small victory and returned to Jinling, and could not eliminate the rebellion for Your Majesty."

Speaking of this, I paused slightly.

"It was yesterday that I had just returned to the waterway outside Jinling City and met the rebel Liu Chengjun. I killed the thief leader on the spot and killed 700 enemies. But even so, the people in the city were still uneasy, and rumors spread all over the city, which was not conducive to the stability of the court. There were also many ministers with ulterior motives who used his priest to rebel and were arrested one by one by one by one by the minister. Now their family has been confiscated and punished..."

When the emperor heard this, his face suddenly disappeared and turned pale. He stood up in surprise and said, "This is the case! King of Wu, please believe me, I really don't know about this!"

"But there are often people with ulterior motives. Even if it is not related to Your Majesty's affairs, it will damage Your Majesty's name." At this point, Wei Yue slowly spoke: "I have drafted an imperial edict and just waited for Your Majesty to promulgate it. By then, the storm will be pacified by future generations. As long as Your Majesty does this, it will be praised by future generations."

As he said that, he took out a drafted article from his arms and asked the generals around him to deliver it to the hands of the little emperor.

The little emperor's uneasiness became stronger and stronger. He trembled his hands, spread out his eyes and looked at it.

It would be fine if I didn't look at it, but when I saw it, my face suddenly changed, and there was no blood in the air, and even a layer of death was covered with it.

"King of Wu..." The emperor even cried in his voice: "You are the capable ministers whom my father said to assist me, why bother me... Why bother me to this point... I haven't done enough..."

King Wei Yue of Wu ignored the emperor's crying voice and said lightly: "Your Majesty, you must be cautious..."

"What I am doing now is for the people of the world, not for the people of the world. Seeing that the princes of various places rebelled, the people of the world were suffering from destruction. As the lord of a country, should Your Majesty watch the people in dire straits and storm without giving help?"

"But...but I will not abdicate, my dear can still do these..."

"Your Majesty is such a bad word!" The King of Wu stood up and walked slowly towards the little emperor, saying, "I am indeed determined to restore the country and let the people stop suffering from war. But if you want to do this, how can you be nameless? Don't I know that letting Your Majesty abdicate and his ministers cause historians to curse? But even so, I cannot abandon the people of the world and ignore it!"

"Your Majesty! The Lord asks you so much, are you still unwilling to abdicate? Today, if the Lord wants to force you, can you still defend yourself? Don't be ignorant of raising your head, otherwise a certain family will kill you here, and it will be up to you or not!" The general who followed Wei Yue into the palace was drinking at the little emperor and touching the hilt of the knife.

This sound suddenly woke the emperor up with the murderous aura on his body.

Given the current situation, what's the basis for you to say no to the King of Wu?

Now that abdicates, maybe you can save your life.

Forget it, forgot!

The emperor's last trace of resistance disappeared, and he said with a blank expression: "Just do as the King of Wu wants, I... I agree to abdicate!"

Speaking of this, tears splashed down.

After hearing the emperor's personal agreement, King Wu's expression slowed down a little.

The emperor immediately wrote the edict written by Wei Yue again, and then stamped it with a jade seal.

Looking at this imperial edict, Wei Yue laughed to the sky, his voice shook the hall. After a moment, he waved his sleeves and said coldly: "It's late at night, your Majesty, let's rest, I will take a leave!"

This time the attack on Wang Hongyi failed, and the situation in Wu and Yue was even more unstable. Wei Yue had already taken the initiative and took advantage of the last opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity. With a reputation, he would first get the throne and then pacify the princes.

As long as the new dynasty is established and the status of the tripod is established, the influence of the old dynasty can be gradually eliminated. Even if it cannot be pacified for a while, the prince of his own can take over a new dynasty and is not bound by him.
