Chapter 127 Enthronement Ceremony
As soon as the right minister's words finished, the fifth prince seemed to have heard a big joke and pointed at the two of them: "You really didn't bring it upon yourself. The death of my father was not announced to the public at all. How did you know about it?"
?The father was murdered, and no one was appointed as the crown prince. The queen murdered the father, and the eldest prince, together with the right minister, led troops into the palace in an attempt to usurp the throne. It is simply unacceptable."
The eldest prince panicked after hearing what the fifth prince said. He looked at the right minister beside him and said, "How could this be possible without announcing it to the outside world? We obviously acted after receiving the notice from our mother. Uncle, what should we do now?"
What to do? This queen must also be in the hands of the fifth prince."
The right minister also understood that no wonder a strange eunuch appeared for no reason. This made it impossible for people to find out. They were fooled! "What should I do if there is nothing? Rush! This is an empty city now. Let's take it."
It's easy." Now that things have come to this point, they have no way out.
The eldest prince looked at the right minister with a sinister look on his face. The eldest prince shook his head: "No, the queen mother is still in the hands of the fifth prince. If we attack by force, they will definitely kill the queen mother." No, he will do it.
No, he couldn't just watch his mother being killed.
"Eldest Prince, do you think we have a way out now? Even if we retreat now, not only will we not be able to save your mother, but we will also be dead. Even your mother's family members will not be spared. If so, do you think
Will your mother be happy?" At this time, we can only move forward. It doesn't matter if we sacrifice a queen. As long as we push the eldest prince to a high position, we can still hold the power.
"No, but I can't abandon my mother!" The eldest prince still shook his head. He really couldn't bear to be so cruel!
"Don't you always want to snatch Wu Fujin back from the fifth prince? If you become the emperor, who else can snatch away your most beloved woman? Think about it, why is only the fifth prince standing outside the palace at this moment?
, where is this Wufujin? If you want to get that woman, you have to fight. Think about it for yourself. "The eldest prince's obsession with Wufujin is nothing new. He doesn't believe that moving out of Wufujin.
How could the prince still be so unable to make up his mind?
"I..." Rouyue, the woman he loved most in his life, the woman who said she wanted to come back to him. The beauty's words were still fresh in his ears, but he...
.
On one side is his mother and on the other side is the woman he loves most. What should he do?
"If you continue to think like this, I'm afraid that once the reinforcements arrive, we will be the ones who die." Seeing that the eldest prince was still undecided, the right minister said in a more serious tone.
"Okay, kill -" The eldest prince closed his eyes and opened them with determination. Mother, please forgive the prince for being unfilial. This is a last resort. Don't worry, the prince will definitely avenge you.
"Okay, go ahead, as long as you kill them, you can get what you want." The right minister was tempting the eldest prince in his ears, raised his sword, and shouted: "Come on -"
This was the situation that the fifth prince was waiting for. It was a fact that everyone could see that the eldest prince and the right minister were trying to rebel. Facing the eldest prince's elite soldiers, they were not afraid at all and stood in front of the palace and watched.
"Protect the fifth prince, protect the palace, kill—"
Seeing that the eldest prince was getting closer and closer to the palace, a pair of elite soldiers came out from behind the palace. The leader was the commander of the Royal Forest Army. The two armies started fighting. After all, the Royal Forest Army had led troops for many days. It was natural that they were right.
The strength was even more familiar, and in just a moment, the eldest prince was defeated like a mountain.
"My subordinates came to rescue you too late. I hope the fifth prince will forgive me." The commander of the Royal Forest Army grabbed the eldest prince and the right minister and knelt down and shouted loudly.
"It won't be too late. The commander-in-chief came at the right time this week. You have done a good job in quelling the chaos. From now on, the safety of the entire palace will be entrusted to you." Everything is just the right time. Let the eldest prince and queen remove all obstacles first, and let
All the ministers thought that the eldest prince was plotting to usurp the throne. If he came forward to solve all this, he would get twice the result with half the effort. I am afraid that no one would dare to object to him now that he has ascended to the throne, right? This Rou Yue is really a good plan!
When Commander Zhou heard that the fifth prince had entrusted the safety of the palace to him, he kowtowed and thanked him: "Thank you very much, fifth prince, but I don't know what to do with the eldest prince and the right minister?"
The fifth prince frowned slightly. He has not ascended the throne yet. If he is executed, he will probably be manipulated by others: "First, let the eldest prince and right minister be imprisoned in Dali Temple together with the queen, and we will deal with it later."
Now that the rebellion of the eldest prince has been put down, the emperor died and the whole country mourned. The whole country mourned for three days at the same time. However, the country has national laws and the family has family rules. This family cannot be without an owner for a day, and the country cannot be without a king for a day. No, this is the late emperor's.
All the ministers in the imperial study room made suggestions one after another, requesting the fifth prince to ascend the throne as soon as possible.
"Fifth Prince, you have already been welcomed by the public, so you should arrange your enthronement as soon as possible."
When the fifth prince heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, my father's funeral has not been settled yet, and I have not settled the seventh emperor's brother's funeral yet. How can I ascend to the throne at this time?"
"
"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. Now that the Emperor has passed away suddenly, as the saying goes, a country cannot be without a king for a day. The laws of ethics and the laws of heaven are cyclical. You are now the late emperor and the only one who can inherit the great rule. You have a responsibility. This is the dynasty.
The responsibilities entrusted to you by your ancestors are the responsibility that the people of your country expect. If the palace is not stable, how can you stabilize the world? I also respectfully invite the fifth prince to succeed you."
The fifth prince stood up after a while and walked in front of the ministers. He raised his hand and said, "What the Taifu taught me is that this prince is not far-sighted enough. The stability of the country and the stability of the people are the best consolation for my father."
Behind the imperial study room, Rou Yue held up her big belly and took in everything. Yes, the fifth prince was finally trained to be able to stand alone. She stretched out her hand to touch her injured arm. It was worth changing the throne for such a wound.
"Wufujin, there is news from the pass."
Rou Yue turned back to look at her personal maid, she was stunned for a moment, then she raised her hand to indicate to the Queen, "What's the news?"
"News just came from the border. The seventh prince did not die in battle, but defeated Dou's army."
"What?" Rou Yue suddenly stood up and was shocked. Dou's army was defeated? How is this possible? Dou's army of hundreds of thousands of horses was defeated by thousands of soldiers? She didn't believe it, never believed it.
"My dear, please be careful not to inflate your fetus. I heard that it was Long Xinyu who planned to poison Dou Jun's water source. The reason why the Seventh Prince won this time was all because of Long Xinyu's plan."
When Rou Yue heard this, she was not angry but laughed: "Haha, okay. My sister Xin Yu is really getting more and more powerful." The seventh prince is not dead, so he is destined to have a long life.
, we need to take a closer look to see if he has this ability.
"Then what should we do now, Madam? But the only good news is that Long Xinyu was knocked off the cliff, and this time her body was intact. This can be regarded as eliminating a threat."
"Oh? She's dead?" It's such a pity that such a smart person died without a single body. Sister Xinyu, in fact, I really like you, but why do you always go against me?
"Yes! Fujin, now that the emperor's death will be announced to the world, we can't hide it from these seven princes. What should we do now?" It's not easy to see that everything in the court is stable. If these ministers in the court are allowed to
What would you do if you knew that the seventh prince was still alive?
"First seal off the fact that the seventh prince has not yet died in battle, and inform our people in the court as soon as possible to arrange for the emperor to ascend the throne as quickly as possible. If the seventh prince gets the news, he will definitely rush back to the court and arrange for people to remove him on the way.
This seventh prince. Remember! We must not let this seventh prince return to the capital.
"Yes, I'll do it if I'm here."
Dali Temple
The eldest prince saw that the queen had not eaten for two days, and carefully advised: "Mother, you should wait a little later, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it!"
When the queen heard this, she didn't even look at the eldest prince. She looked up at the shabby house, the spider webs on the roof, the discolored walls, and the dilapidated door, all of which made her appetizing. She looked down at the house.
Looking at the food in the hands of the eldest prince, he felt even more nauseated in his stomach. He waved his arm and said, "Get rid of these things that neither pigs nor dogs can eat."
