Houfu Key Class

There were so many people listening here, Zong Zhao didn't say what it was, but Zong Jincheng understood. His father said that it was the art of being an emperor, and His Highness taught him things a long time ago.

His Highness wanted him to be the emperor a long time ago.

But...

Before Zong Jincheng finished thinking, he saw the commander of the patrol city strode over and interrupted him sternly: "His Highness the Crown Prince has not been deposed yet, how could the emperor pass the throne to someone else? Duke of the Protectorate, General Zong, I want to check the imperial edict!"

The students were ignorant and didn't know anything, but the officials were scared to death. Anyone could guess that the nephew of the Luo family might not have come to the throne legitimately, but Luo Jingfeng had the military power in his hands, who dared to disobey?

The successor was still a member of the Chu family, and it was not a change of dynasty. This result was already very rare. All the officials knew it in their hearts, and they didn't dare to ask questions at this time.

Because the new official took office with three fires, according to Luo Jingfeng's usual style, he could kill a few ministers who didn't obey on the spot and use blood to establish the prestige of the new emperor.

But even so, the commander of the City Patrol Division still stood up.

They had obeyed Zong Zhao's orders last night not only because of the token, but also because they firmly believed that Zong Zhao was His Highness's man... But now the one who ascended the throne was a member of the Luo family, His Highness's opponent Luo Jingfeng.

So is Zong Zhao still His Highness's man?

He was betraying His Highness!

The commander of the City Patrol Division now suspected that the token in Zong Zhao's hand was either fake or obtained by trickery.

The City Patrol Division openly started to fight, and everyone thought that Luo Jingfeng would be furious.

But who knew that Lord Protector of the Country sneered and said loudly: "Check to see if this is written by the emperor himself, and see if this seal is real or fake!"

He knew that many people were not convinced that Cheng'er ascended the throne, but he and Zong Zhao had already paved the way for the child. This edict of succession was clean, and he could just let the Hanlin Academy prove that Cheng'er's ascension to the throne was legitimate!

The head scholar of the Hanlin Academy took the imperial edict from Eunuch Huang and carefully checked the contents of the two edicts. Then he said loudly: "It is indeed written by the emperor himself, and the seal of the jade seal is authentic and complete. The throne is passed to the fifteenth prince."

With a bang, all the officials discussed again.

This time, the discussion was more inclined to Chu Jincheng.

They recognized the edict of passing the throne.

The commander of the patrol city was very angry. He knew what the two generals did when they entered the palace last night. He knew exactly how this imperial edict came about, but he was the first prince to be dissatisfied!

"Zong Zhao, you are clearly stepping on His Highness..."

"Commander." A female voice suddenly appeared, interrupting the commander of the patrol city.

"The Crown Princess has arrived." The announcement sounded.

The arrival of the Crown Princess made the whole situation even more serious.

Everyone knows that the Crown Prince is now in a coma. The entire Eastern Palace is under the control of the Crown Princess. There are many people from the Duke of Wei's Mansion in the City Patrol. The Crown Princess's personal presence at this time has greatly strengthened the confidence of the City Patrol.

The commander-in-chief strode forward to pay his respects, and then began to complain: "Your Majesty, Zong Zhao he..."

The Crown Princess interrupted him again, holding up the Crown Prince's token in her hand: "Commander-in-chief, I came here to convey the Crown Prince's oral instructions."

The commander-in-chief's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Your Majesty, is the prince awake?"

The Crown Princess smiled and said: "Yes, the prince is awake."

Last night, Zong Zhao suddenly appeared in the Eastern Palace, fed the prince medicine, and gave him a few injections. The prince, who had been in a coma for a year, woke up.

Zong Zhao did not lie to her, the prince really recovered quickly!

A stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Now not only the civil and military officials were surprised, but even the students were stunned. His Royal Highness was wise and brave, and he was popular among the people. With him succeeding to the throne, no one dared to disobey!

"His Royal Highness has woken up! That's great!!" Zong Jincheng was also excited. This was the best news he had heard this year!

The whole palace was reveling, only Luo Jingfeng's face was dark.

He asked Zong Zhao: "Did you leave the Imperial Study last night to cure the prince?"

Zong Zhao also stood up and replied: "His Royal Highness has indeed woken up, but his body has not yet recovered and he still needs to stay in bed."

The commander-in-chief said sternly: "Since His Royal Highness has woken up, he should take over the throne as the crown prince. Even if he is temporarily unfit to ascend the throne, it is not the turn of a yellow-haired boy to be the emperor!"

Although the yellow-haired boy himself was being scolded, Zong Jincheng was excited.

That's right! Let His Royal Highness ascend the throne!

He will serve His Royal Highness as a second-rank official!

Luo Jingfeng turned his face right away: "Let's see who dares to move!"

The army poured in from all sides, and the soldiers were ready to fight, waiting for Luo Jingfeng's order to surround and strangle everyone.

It is true that the prince is popular, but the prince's mother's family has long been gone, and only the patrol city department is left.

The military power of Da Chu is in the hands of Luo Jingfeng. Although he is concerned about his nephew's legitimate enthronement, if the prince insists on competing with Cheng'er for the throne, then don't blame him for killing.

The situation is tense, and the students are trembling with fear.

Who understands... They just came to participate in a palace examination, how can they catch up with the prince's fight for the throne?

The princess nodded to Zong Zhao.

Then she said: "Protector of the country, Du Commander, both of you please be quiet. Regarding who will ascend the throne, His Highness has already made up his mind, and the emperor in his mind: it is Jin Cheng."

The prince gave up the throne.

He will not compete with the Luo family.

The commander-in-chief's eyes instantly turned red: "Your Majesty! How can His Highness give up? He is the most suitable prince to succeed the throne in our hearts!"

Some officials also whispered in agreement.

Chu Heng's succession to the throne was indeed what everyone expected.

But under the pressure of Luo Jingfeng, they did not dare to speak out.

The Crown Princess smiled and said: "Your Highness is in poor health. He dare not occupy the throne without doing anything, for fear of disappointing the trust of all the adults and the people. His Highness said: Jincheng is a child he watched grow up. He has a pure character and extraordinary intelligence. His Highness believes that he can shoulder the heavy burden and lead the people to a prosperous era."

"Your Highness..." A low sob came from the crowd.

Zong Jincheng did not expect that even if His Highness woke up, the throne would still fall on his head.

The Crown Princess took the imperial edict and came on behalf of the Crown Prince.

She looked at the child in front of her, lowered her brows and said kindly: "Jincheng, accept the edict, don't disappoint His Highness's trust in you."

Zong Jincheng raised his head with red eyes and looked at the bright yellow imperial edict.

That is not only the burden of the whole world.

It is also the answer sheet of His Highness's careful teaching for nearly two years.

On the second floor of the study, the sun was always so bright. The gentle and generous prince always patiently taught him how to be a good ruler.

Day after day, without slacking off.

Zong Jincheng stretched out his hand with a trembling body and took the imperial edict.

The overall situation was decided.

Eunuch Huang, with tears in his eyes, shouted loudly: "Welcome the new emperor."

All the soldiers, civil and military officials, reference students, as well as the powerful generals, the Duke of Protectorate, and the Crown Princess, knelt down together.

"Long live the emperor."
