The system forced me to be emperor

Now that the winter solstice has passed, and the freezing weather suddenly warmed up a few days ago, Xiao Rui suspects that the alternation of cold and heat may cause heavy snowfall, and now it seems that it has come true.

Judging by the scale of this snow, I don't know how far it will spread.

Xiao Rui restrained his joy in an instant, the road ahead was still bumpy, and he still needed to move forward with a heavy burden.

The snow fell heavily for a whole day and night, with a thickness of nearly one meter.After the snow stopped, the temperature dropped sharply. Although there was no thermometer, it felt that it must be more than ten degrees below zero.

In the early morning, Xiao Rui asked Fang Xuanling to pay close attention to the people affected by the snow disaster. Kyoto is fine, after all, it is under the foot of the emperor, and the parents and officials attach great importance to it.But other state capitals are not so good.

Fang Xuanling was more courageous and capable than Yang Feiyuan, and he was already prepared.

Thanks to the promotion of cotton and the franchising of coal mines, poor people can also use cotton as an inner liner to make a piece of clothing to keep out the cold.Don't ask for a second change, this one can also resist the cold and survive the cold winter.

Moreover, in order to control the price of cotton and avoid gouging up, Xiao Rui asked the cabinet to issue a decree that the price of cotton and coal should not exceed 20% of the market price set by the Ministry of Households, so as to prevent individual businesses from making ill-gotten gains.

This can be regarded as the advantage of this era, since the imperial court directly adjusts the market, no one dares to make suggestions!Those who give opinions can't even do business!

I believe that in the future, it will happen again and again that the imperial government directly regulates the market, and even directly controls the price of grain, but it is not necessary yet.

In addition, this heavy snow has affected more than 30 prefectures, and the area is so large that it can be regarded as the top few in the history of Daxia.

There was no snow in Qi State, but the temperature was maintained at minus ten degrees, which was a torment for the soldiers, so they could only endure the cold and continue to fight.Sometimes after a killing, the inner lining of the armor is soaked, and when the cold wind blows, it is bone-chillingly cold.

It is really cold sweat soaked frost armor, cold light iron clothes.

Also in order to reward the soldiers, the Great Xia general will directly light a bonfire, cut off the horse meat from the sacrificial horse, roast it on the fire and eat a hot barbecue to dispel the cold on his body.

And just three days after the heavy snow stopped, before the ice and snow in Daxia melted, a gyrfalcon flying from Yan Kingdom brought bad news!

The temperature in Yan Kingdom also dropped sharply, reaching minus ten degrees. Emperor Yan, who had been tortured by brain disease for a long time, still failed to survive this winter and passed away!

Once the Yan Kingdom dies, the prince Yan Xifeng will ascend the throne immediately, which will make it difficult for Yan Linglong.

If Emperor Yan can still study for a few years, not ten years, not seven years, but three or four years later, when the emperor's grandson is five or six years old, he can inherit the great rule.

But now he is only a little over two years old, which is still too young.

So what's the situation in Yanhui now?

Chapter 609: Emperor Yan's Death

Yan Huang failed to survive this cold winter.

Once he died, what would happen to the situation in Yan Kingdom was a matter of great concern to Xiao Rui.Yan Linglong's own safety and what Yan Xifeng will do are not something that Xiao Rui, who is thousands of miles away, can dispatch at any time.

He immediately called Wang Dazhi, and asked him to send a message immediately, so that the spies stationed in the capital of Yan Kingdom should always pay attention to the situation of Princess Zhenguo, and pass on the news at any time.

At the same time, arrange for the military town stationed at Xiayan border to stand ready.Since the Marquis of Zhenyuan was transferred to Anxi Fourteen Prefectures, only 2 people have been stationed in the military town at the border. If something happens to Yan Linglong, this amount of troops will not help. Commanders from other prefectures need to be assembled.And the distance is too far, and you have to cross the Yanjiang River, which is beyond your reach.

So Xiao Rui was very worried, now he could only look at Yan Linglong's layout.

What happened to Yandu at this time?

......

Before Emperor Yan passed away, he was dying in the middle of the night. The situation was very bad. The Chief Physician secretly informed the Chief Eunuch about the situation. The Chief Eunuch did not dare to delay, and immediately sent someone to invite the Crown Prince, Princess Zhen Guo and the governors of the three provinces.

When the person who was supposed to come was due, it was already midnight.

Emperor Yan was very weak and his eyes were blurred. When Yan Linglong, Yan Xifeng and three important ministers entered the palace and knelt in front of the dragon bed to visit, he turned his head with difficulty, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.

In the end, he could only use his last strength to barely raise his left hand, pointing to the brocade box on the desk, and then the raised hand fell down suddenly, without breath.

Emperor Yan is dead!

Yan Linglong knelt by the bed and wailed loudly, and the three important ministers who had the power of prime minister also prostrated themselves on the ground with grief-stricken faces.

Yan Xifeng's performance was beyond everyone's expectations.

He stared blankly at Emperor Yan who had passed away on the bed, his eyes were red, and he roared: "Impossible, impossible! How could he die! How could he die! I'm going to kill you quack doctors!"

The furious Yan Xifeng stood up, grabbed the saber worn by the imperial guards, and then slashed the chief physician.

After killing all the people, Yan Xifeng sat down in the hall with a blank expression on his face.

Was he distraught because of the death of his father?

No.

He is because Emperor Yan is dead, but he has not yet destroyed this country, let him watch with his own eyes the throne that was acquired by all means is destroyed in his hands, and let him become a king of subjugation!

Why did he die before his wish was fulfilled?

Yan Linglong's eyes were red, she knew Yan Xifeng's true face, and naturally she also knew the reason for his current appearance.On the contrary, the three important ministers were very pleased. Although the crown prince had made some mischief, his filial piety was evident. Look at his distraught mood, it came from the heart, not a disguise.

At this time, outside the hall, the internal officials were shouting: "Your Majesty has passed away!"

The voice came out from the bedroom and out of the palace, announcing it to the world.At this time in the east, the sky was just getting bright, and the orange-red sun burst into brilliant colors.

At this time, Xu Xiao, a servant under the door, comforted: "His Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty pointed to the brocade box before he passed away. There must be a will in the box. I suggest that you please issue the will, establish a new monarch early, and stabilize the situation in Yan."

The Zhongshu ordered Wei Song to say: "Yes, the country cannot be without a king for a day, or please issue a will to establish a new king as soon as possible."

Yan Linglong nodded, then wiped away her tears, looked at Yan Xifeng, and asked, "What does the prince think?"

Yan Xifeng woke up from his anger, nodded, and said, "Follow the rules!"

As he said that, he got up and left. Wei Song and Xu Xiao wanted to stop him, but Yan Linglong stopped him, allowing Yan Xifeng to leave the palace and return to the palace.

At the back of the crown prince's womb, there is a desolate courtyard with a dry well. Usually no one drives in here, only the prince can enter, so it is very deserted and overgrown with weeds.

He walked to the dry well in a daze, sat down by the dry well, rested his head on the dry well, and couldn't help crying.

"Mother..."

"Mother..."

At this moment, Yan Xifeng is like a child lost from his mother, helpless and pitiful.

Back then, Emperor Yan coveted the crown prince's position. In order to win the crown prince's position from the crown prince, he deliberately designed the crown prince to violate the princess, and then personally shot the princess into a dry well, pretending to commit suicide.

When the first emperor learned of the prince's bad behavior, he was furious, cut off the prince's position, and imprisoned the clan mansion.

Although Yan Xifeng was small back then, he witnessed all this with his own eyes, so he hated Emperor Yan. In order to avenge Emperor Yan, he wanted to destroy the country with his own hands, making him a subjugated king, and letting the throne he had worked so hard to obtain in his past be in his hands. Hands collapsed.

Who knows... After all, the revenge was not completed.

So Yan Xifeng seemed to have lost his life goal and was at a loss.
