The system forced me to be emperor

Xiao Rui arrived late.

He naturally also heard the news, and through the relationship of Commander Zhuge, he learned that Xiao Yiheng did not enter the palace yesterday, but Xiao Yuan entered the palace.

Xiao Rui felt a little regretful, Xiao Yiheng was indeed cautious and careful, maybe he did it himself the first time, but the second time he absolutely did not take any risks, stayed out of the incident, and did not suffer from the slightest cause and effect.It is indeed not easy to deal with him.

When he came to the Meridian Gate, Xiao Rui was like an insulator, civil and military officials were far away from him, it was Xiao Yan who saw him coming, hurried forward, worried: "Seventh Brother..."

Xiao Rui stopped him from comforting him, and said with a smile: "Xiao Jiu, do you believe in the sayings about disaster stars and killer stars?"

"Of course I don't believe it!" Xiao Yan said immediately.

Xiao Rui whispered: "You are so stupefied that you don't believe it, do you think our father will believe the calamity star's words that hurt Ziwei Emperor Star?"

"But the recurring fever seems to have something to do with you!" Xiao Yan said.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's just the beginning, you don't have to do anything, just watch quietly."

With the sound of drums, civil and military officials entered the hall.

When Emperor Xia entered the palace and sat on the dragon chair, Eunuch Zhang, the second person in charge of ceremonies beside him, sang loudly: "Play early if there is something to do, and retreat to the court if there is nothing to do!"

At this time, all civil and military officials and the prince were not curious about where Hai Dafu had gone, because they only cared about the next good show.

Shang Jin, a scholar of the Cabinet and Minister of the Ministry of Officials, came out first and asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that the imperial doctor was urgently called in the palace last night. Could it be that Your Majesty is not feeling well?"

Emperor Xia laughed and said, "It's such a small matter that the business scholars are worried about it. Someone has a fever, so they urgently called the imperial doctor."

"Your Majesty's fever has relapsed?" Shang Jin was surprised, and then showed regret: "It seems that the prophecy has come true!"

Zhou Mingwen, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, also came out and said: "Your Majesty, in the morning court the day before yesterday, King Xian made an oath on the Golden Palace that if His Majesty catches a fever again, it will prove that he is a disaster star. Now the fact has come true, and I implore Your Majesty to rule!"

"I implore Your Majesty to rule!" A large number of civil servants and military generals came forward to ask for an order.

The princes did not let go of this opportunity, Ming Wang Xiao Yuan was filled with righteous indignation, and said: "Your Majesty, my ministers seconded this! For the sake of His Majesty's dragon body, we must not hesitate to tolerate it!"

"I implore Your Majesty to hold King Xian accountable!" Xiao Ming shouted.

Xiao Yiheng glanced at Xiao Rui, saw his calm face, and laughed in his heart. Just when he was about to step out of the queue, he also stepped in. Suddenly, he noticed Emperor Xia's calm expression.

No, there is something wrong!

Xiao Yiheng suddenly felt that there was a problem, and his cautious character made his feet stop there.

Xiao Yan remembered what Xiao Rui said in front of the Meridian Gate, so he didn't stand up to speak for Xiao Rui. Besides him, the third prince Xiao Ze also remained silent.

At this time, Emperor Xia finally opened his mouth and asked: "I am very pleased that all the ministers and princes care about me. Where is King Xian?"

Only then did Xiao Rui step forward leisurely, stood in the hall, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xia said: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "I have nothing to say, the facts are in front of me, and the facts speak louder than words!"

This attitude immediately angered everyone, Xiao Yuan said angrily: "Your Majesty, King Xian has no sense of shame, causing His Majesty to contract a fever again, yet he can still laugh?"

"That's right! His Royal Highness Xian's rude behavior is really detrimental to the noble status of the prince!"

"I implore Your Majesty to punish him severely!"

"Wei Chen agrees!"

……

When discussions were raging again, Emperor Xia suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Who said that I have a fever again?"

In an instant, the Golden Palace was silent, and everyone stared at each other with wide-eyed eyes.

Emperor Xia continued: "Last night, Hai Dafu suffered from a fever. He has served me for many years. I saw that he had worked hard and made great achievements, so I asked the imperial doctor to treat him. I didn't expect his symptoms to be exactly the same as mine. I just took this opportunity to ask Manchu Wen Wu, is it possible that Hai Dafu is also the Emperor Ziwei Star, and he also suffered from fever after being injured by the Calamity Star and the Killing Star?"

His voice was indifferent because of his calmness, and he was even more serious when he said the last word.

So the civil and military officials who impeached Xiao Rui were stunned, with cold sweat on their foreheads.

Emperor Xia got up and shouted: "The fever I contracted is not caused by any calamity at all, nor is it a disease! Then, dear princes and princes, can you guess where the disease I contracted came from?"

It's not a natural disaster, it's not a disease, it's a man-made disaster...

In an instant, the cultural relics officials knelt there, even breathing cautiously.

If it is really a man-made disaster, it is someone who intends to murder. Who can bear this crime?Those who punish the Jiu Clan... Then, these people accuse King Xian of harming them, are they related to the people who framed them?

At this moment, they felt the bone-chilling cold wind blowing into their bones.

Several princes also had their hearts pounding, especially Xiao Yiheng, who was panicked and secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, he was cautious, otherwise not only would he not be able to deal with Xiao Rui this time, but he would sit in by himself!

The hall was full of civil and military affairs, only Xiao Rui stood alone.

Emperor Xia said again: "Since you and the princes can't guess the cause of the fever, then so be it, and I won't pursue it."

Xiao Rui was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Emperor Xia would not pursue responsibility, but Emperor Xia suddenly said: "Li Shoufu!"

"The minister is here!" Li Mingyang was taken aback, and quickly responded.

Xia Huangdao: "After the early dynasty, a decree was drawn up to promote Ming Wang Xiao Yuan as Chaozhou Governor!"

The current Xiao Yuan is a rank-[-] official, and he will be directly promoted to rank-[-] governor, which is definitely a promotion.

However, as soon as these words came out, the hall was filled with silence, even more deadly than just now.

Xiao Yuan was dumbfounded, and then fell into endless panic, even fear. Even if his grandfather's Han family was defeated, he would not have such fear, but now because of an appointment by His Majesty, he felt a suffocating abyss!

"Your Majesty, I was deceived by others to accuse King Xian, and not only my ministers, but also other civil and military ministers wronged King Xian!" Xiao Yuan begged, he still didn't know why His Majesty punished him!

Emperor Xia said: "Think about it! I came here this morning, let's retreat!"

After finishing speaking, Emperor Xia turned around and went down the dragon steps to leave.

All civil and military officials sent off His Majesty respectfully, then got up and hurriedly left the Golden Palace, only Xiao Yuan was left standing there in a daze, just like the scene when the Han family was defeated.

Xiao Yiheng left the Golden Palace without showing any signs of expression, and when the cold wind blew outside, he realized that his back was covered in cold sweat.Coincidentally, Xiao Rui passed by him.

"Second brother, what's wrong?" Xiao Rui asked intentionally.

Xiao Yiheng looked at Xiao Rui, suddenly showed a smile, and said: "So it's the seventh brother, and the seventh brother is safe and sound, so there must be future blessings. But I didn't expect... Ming Wang, hey... Self-inflicted evil, father is very kind to him..."

"Yeah, could it be that he was wronged just by looking at Fifth Brother's expression? Is there something tricky about it?" Xiao Rui asked intentionally.

Xiao Yiheng smiled, did not speak, quickened his pace a little, and quickly left the palace.
