Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

The palace's bells were not rung unless there were important events. Tang Ning did not have a specific number, but estimated that the bells rang more than 40 times.

The bell rings ninety-five, and the emperor passes away.

Emperor Chu passed away at this time, and he didn't know what was going on in the palace. He looked at Chen Zhou and said, "Tell Commander Lu to be fully prepared."

After he finished speaking, he noticed pain on the back of his hand. When he lowered his head, he saw that not only was his hand bitten by Little Manniu, there was a deep tooth mark, but blood was still oozing out from some places.

Tangning waved her hand, glanced at her, and said angrily, "Tie her up!"

Chen Zhou cupped his hands and said, "I have the order!"

Not long after he waited outside the city gate, a guard came out of the city and posted an imperial list on the wall.

Lu Teng ran under the imperial list, took a look, and then ran over quickly and said in shock: "Master Tang, the Emperor of Chu passed away, deposed the crown prince in the imperial edict, and passed the throne to the king..."

Although I don't know what happened in the palace just now, the overall situation has been decided at this time, and there is nothing major to worry about.

Lu Teng looked at him and asked, "Sir, we are now..."

Tangning turned the horse's head and said, "Go and bring the princess back."

After struggling for more than half a year, I tried my best to get the job of the wedding messenger, and traveled all the way. As soon as I arrived in Chu State, I was involved in the undercurrent... After so long, the dust has finally settled.

The princess of Chen State would not marry the deposed prince of Chu State. King Xin, who cherished his daughter so much, would definitely not agree to Chen State's marriage proposal. The mission of the Chu State and his party had been successfully completed, and they could return to Beijing on a different day.

At a certain courtyard in the outskirts of Kyoto, when Tang Ning took Lu Teng and others there, the guard at the door felt like he was facing an enemy. He saw the person clearly and hurried in to report.

As Tang Ning stepped into the door of the mansion, a figure rushed towards him and threw herself into his arms.

Tangning even staggered when she hit her and almost fell down.

Zhao Man looked up at him with sparkling eyes and choked up: "I'm so worried about you..."

"It's okay, it's okay..." Tangning patted her back and said, "It's all over."

Lu Teng stared at this scene with wide eyes. Chen Zhou stretched out his hand and pulled him out of the door, closing the door behind him.

Lu Teng looked back and murmured: "Master Tang, princess, this..."

"What's wrong with Mr. Tang? What's wrong with the princess?" Chen Zhou looked at him and asked doubtfully: "My subordinates didn't see anything just now..."

Lu Teng was stunned for a moment. After he came to his senses, he looked at the guards in front of him and said, "You guys just stand outside and wait for Master Tang and the princess to come out."

He rubbed his eyes and said, "I didn't see anything just now..."

In the mansion, Tang Ning gently wiped away Zhao Man's tears. When she looked up, she saw Li Tianlan standing a few steps in front of him.

She looked at Zhao Man, then at Tang Ning, and her slightly fast pace slowed down.

Zhao Man looked back, her face turned red, she wiped her tears and let go of Tang Ning.

Tangning coughed lightly, looked at Li Tianlan, and said, "The Emperor of Chu passed away, deposed the crown prince, and passed the throne to King Xin. The situation in Kyoto has been decided. I will take you back."

Princess Xin came out from behind and said with a complex expression: "Your Majesty, has your Majesty passed away?"

Tangning nodded and said, "The death knell has been sounded in the palace, and the imperial list has been posted outside."

Princess Xin was silent for a moment, sighed, and said, "Let's go."

Tang Ning led them out of the house and helped Zhao Man get into the carriage. She suddenly looked at the back of Tang Ning's hand and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with your hand? Is it injured?"

"It's okay." Tangning waved her hand and said, "I accidentally got bitten by a dog."

"You are the dog!" Wan Yanyan, who was tied up, glared at him and seemed to have the urge to pounce on him and bite him again.

Zhao Man looked at Wanyan Yan and asked, "Why is she here again?"

Tangning explained: "She is our prisoner now."

Zhao Man glared at Wanyan Yan, gently stroked the back of his hand, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore..." Others were watching. Tangning helped her get into the carriage and said, "It's late, let's hurry up."

When they left the city just now, there was still a depressing atmosphere in the city, but when the group returned, the atmosphere in the capital was already full of joy.

"The prince was finally deposed..."

"Your Majesty passes the throne to His Highness King Xin, and the Chu Kingdom is saved!"

"We will have a good life in the future..."

……

The death of the emperor is a national tragedy and should be mourned by the whole country, but for the people in Beijing, the atmosphere of celebration is even higher.

King Xin did not rebel, and Emperor Chu abdicated the throne justifiably. This matter should be a good story in the history books.

Tang Ning sent Li Tianlan and the princess back to Prince Xin's Mansion first. I'm afraid they won't be able to live in Prince Xin's Mansion for long. After King Xin succeeds to the throne, the princess will become the queen and the princess will become a princess.

The Chu royal family seems to have something in common. Emperor Chu only has one deceased queen, and King Xin only has one princess. I wonder if they will be able to give birth to a prince to inherit the throne in the future, but this is not what Tang Ning should consider. Something happened.

The prince was deposed and the Emperor of Chu died. His mission for this trip had been completed and he should prepare for his return.

Inside the palace.

King Xin was sitting alone on the steps in front of Yangshen Temple, while the eunuchs and maids below him were already kneeling.

An old eunuch stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, the ministers are waiting in the political hall, waiting for you to take charge of the overall situation."

King Xin stood up, waved his hand and said, "Let the Ministry of Rites handle it according to the regulations."

The old eunuch said again: "The Grand Master and the Grand Tutor resign and retire..."

"That's right."

"Your Excellency, the two of you are in trouble..."

"It's all right." King Xin waved his hand again and walked out of the palace.

The old eunuch bowed his hands and said, "Yes."

The prince was deposed and the emperor died, but it did not cause much commotion in the Chu court.

The Ministry of Rites has a complete set of rules for the etiquette of the emperor's death, and you can just follow the steps. His Majesty has been absent from the court for several years, and the court is in order. It can still operate in an orderly manner without the emperor.

The only thing that caused a stir was that several court officials, the highly respected Taishi and Taifu, resigned at the same time. In addition, several young courtiers in the court also chose to resign, but this was just a matter of calm on the lake. The few pebbles thrown in produced nothing but tiny ripples.

In Splendid Palace.

What happened today has already spread throughout the capital, and the envoys of Chen State have mixed feelings in their hearts.

For the marriage, the State of Chen was fully prepared, and the dowry was extremely generous. It sent an envoy to send the princess to marry the State of Chu.

But less than a month after they arrived in the capital, the Chu State deposed the prince and overthrew the emperor, catching them off guard.

The prince is not the prince, so their trip was in vain.

Fortunately, what happened in Chu State was an accident among accidents and had nothing to do with them. They should not be punished after returning to Beijing.

In Tang Ning's room, Zhao Man distressedly applied the medicinal powder to his hand and wrapped it with a white cloth. Then she looked at Wan Yanyan who was tied up in the corner of the room, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

She pointed at Wanyan Yan and asked Tangning, "What should we do with her?"

"The second prince and the grassland messenger have both run away, so there's no use having her." Tangning thought for a while and said, "Take her back and you'll waste food. Otherwise, kill her."

"Ah?" Zhao Man's face changed, and she said, "It's not good to kill people. How about I bite her for you..."

Tangning shook her head and said, "Forget it, we prairie people don't like to take baths, and they all stink."

As if she was insulted, Wan Yanyan jumped over and said loudly: "I take a bath every day, and my whole body is fragrant. I don't believe you smell it!"

Tangning reached behind her, untied her rope, and said, "Let's go."

Wanyanyan looked at him and asked in surprise: "Are you going to let me go?"

The second prince has run away, so there is no use keeping her. She eats so much, and unnecessary food is wasted every day she is kept.

As for destroying flowers with ruthless hands, Tang Ning had never thought about it this way. Kittens and puppies would still have feelings after being raised for a long time. He felt very uncomfortable if King Xin really had to deal with the captives he had raised for a month.

Tangning waved her hand and said, "You can leave before I change my mind."

Wanyanyan looked at him and strode outside.

When she reached the door, she turned back.

Tangning looked up at her and asked, "Is there anything else?"

She looked at Tang Ning and said confidently, "I don't know the road."
