Chapter 594 Xiao Chenyan ascends the throne
Even though it was the chronic poison that he forced Emperor Yong'an to drink, Xiao Chenyan still showed a sad expression at this moment.
As usual, he quickly summoned officials from the clan and the Ministry of Rites to discuss the funeral arrangements for Emperor Yong'an.
Shen Ruzhou originally thought that Emperor Yong'an had passed away a long time ago, but Xiao Chenyan did not mourn him secretly, but now he came to his senses.
He was afraid that someone would find out that Emperor Yong'an was poisoned, so he still used the chronic poison that he had used before, allowing Emperor Yong'an to wait for ten days before he died. This would make it difficult to detect symptoms.
Really cautious enough.
Shen Ruzhou came to the mourning hall, and it happened that the palace people were collecting the body of Emperor Yong'an. She accidentally caught a glimpse of the index finger of Emperor Yong'an's right hand turning red, as if it had been bitten.
Did Emperor Yong'an leave a blood letter before his death?
Thinking of this, Shen Ruzhou felt his heartbeat skip a beat. He quickly urged the palace people to change clothes to avoid being discovered by Xiao Chenyan.
In the dead of night, Shen Ruzhou carefully sifted through all the people in Taihe Palace in his mind, and finally locked on Mammy You.
Aunt You was the personal maid of the late Empress. After the First Empress had an accident, she fell into madness. Xiao Chenyan had been hiding her in another courtyard. Later, he relied on her testimony to overthrow his successor and Prince Yu to become the crown prince.
Xiao Chenyan should have thought that Aunt You was one of his own, so he didn't get rid of her.
But Shen Ruzhou had treated her for madness before, and she knew very well that according to Aunt You's loyalty to the late empress, if Emperor Yong'an wanted to leave a blood letter to pass the throne to Prince Ning before his death, then Aunt You was worthy of his trust.
Shen Ruzhou quietly visited Grandma You's residence and asked straight to the point: "Where is the blood letter left by Emperor Yong'an?"
Mother You's eyes flashed with surprise, looking at Shen Ruzhou's expression as if he had seen a ghost, "What blood book? I don't understand what you are talking about?"
Shen Ruzhou was not surprised by Aunt You's denial. After all, the matter was too secretive. If she hadn't accidentally seen the blood on Emperor Yong'an's fingers, she would never have guessed it.
Shen Ruzhou patiently explained to her, "I know you want to wait until Prince Ning comes back to take it out, but by then it will be too late. As soon as the emperor's funeral ceremony is over, Xiao Chenyan will ascend the throne. The throne is certain and it will be difficult to overturn it. "
Naturally, Aunt You also thought of this, and said with a bit of despair: "What's the use of giving it to you? Now the palace is full of Xiao Chenyan's people, and we can't send any news at all."
"Have you forgotten that there is a regent?" Shen Ruzhou smiled unconsciously when he mentioned the person in his heart. "The regent has secretly returned to Beijing. When the time comes, we will cooperate internally and externally to help Prince Ning successfully succeed to the throne."
Aunt You still didn't believe it and asked: "You are trapped in the palace and the regent is outside the palace. You cannot communicate with each other. How can you cooperate inside and outside?"
"We are of the same mind." Shen Ruzhou's eyebrows were full of confidence. She and Bei Xiuyan had already had a good understanding of each other. They could guess each other's thoughts and cooperate tacitly just by judging the surrounding situation.
"Mommy You, the regent's power is overwhelming, and there are countless loyalists in the army and court, who are enough to compete with the prince. Moreover, the regent is Prince Ning's master. He has carefully educated him for many years and treated him like a teacher and a father. You should know this. ." Shen Ruzhou's analysis was well-founded. The regent was Prince Ning's most solid support, both in terms of strength and emotions.
Aunt You looked at the light in Shen Ruzhou's eyes and felt infinite hope. She nodded immediately and took out the blood book.
Shen Ruzhou unfolded it and saw that it was indeed the edict passing on the throne to Prince Ning. He was overjoyed and said, "Mother You, don't worry, we will definitely win this time, and we will win without bloodshed."
After reviving her life, she will definitely turn things around and change her destiny against the will of heaven.
The ninth day of September is the coronation ceremony of the new emperor. Shen Ruzhou was repeatedly urged to change clothes by the palace maid in the side hall.
"Miss Shen, the imperial edict from the Queen is coming soon. Please put on your phoenix robe to receive it."
Shen Ruzhou ignored the palace maid's anxiety and slowly traced his eyebrows in the mirror.
Phoenix robe? She doesn't care about it!
He raised his eyes and looked at the sun outside. The Beixiu Banquet should be coming soon.
Sure enough, after a while, the sound of a guard falling was heard outside, and Bei Xiuyan and his people arrived.
The palace maid and eunuch were so frightened that they shrank into the corner. Shen Ruzhou stepped forward and took Bei Xiuyan's hand. The two stood side by side and walked towards the bright golden palace.
Xiao Chenyan's enthronement ceremony was in progress, and the Minister of Rites presented it with a gold plate and jade seal.
"Wait!" Suddenly a voice broke the solemn ceremony.
Everyone's eyes turned to look over. Shen Ruzhou's red dress was so beautiful, like a warm flame, with a dazzling light.
"Xiao Chenyan plotted to kill the late emperor and usurp power. I have a blood letter to prove it." Shen Ruzhou's voice was high-pitched. He raised his hand and held up Emperor Yong'an's edict to show it to the civil and military officials.
Letter: Xiao Chenyan was unfaithful and unfilial, and plotted to kill your father. I have decided to pass on the throne to Prince Ning and establish this as a basis.
Someone recognized Emperor Yong'an's handwriting, "It was written by the late Emperor himself..."
