The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

Chapter 708 Li Yi ascends the throne

"Master Mao, how long have you been busy? Come here and take a rest. Be careful of the heat."

Seeing that Mao Wenyun didn't respond, Lin Shu directly pulled him into the shed.

"You are so crazy."

Touching Mao Wenyun's soaked sleeves, Lin Shu frowned slightly and took off her shirt without saying a word.

"Don't."

Mao Wenyun stopped Lin Shu, "I have to go there in a while. It has rained heavily for the past two days and the mud and rocks above have buried the road. It needs to be cleared as soon as possible."

"To prevent another collapse, the steep surface needs to be reinforced." Mao Wenyun's brows were full of worry.

Lin Shu gave her the water, "Mao Wenyun, you are really in your position and doing what you want, but you also care about yourself, just like you fished out of the water."

"Aren't you uncomfortable wearing wet clothes?"

Mao Wenyun swallowed a large gulp of water, wiped the corners of his mouth, and smiled softly, "I am a woman after all, and I am not too convenient."

"Knowing that I'm wearing a lot and standing in the sun, I'm really not afraid of anything happening."

Lin Shu took the bowl and filled it up for Mao Wenyun, "If you don't have a corset, you can't change this gown into something thin."

Mao Wenyun blushed slightly and did not look back at Lin Shu. Even if she tied it up, it would not be completely covered up. If she wore something light and thin, she would have to stick to her body whenever she got sweaty. She didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

"Sit down and take a rest."

Lin Shu knew Mao Wenyun's concerns and didn't say anything more. If his daughter's body was discovered, Mao Wenyun would definitely not be accepted as the county magistrate.

Although there are discussions at the moment, as long as no real evidence can be produced, no one dares to openly question it.

"Su Xian has proclaimed himself emperor in Chu Kingdom, and today is the day he ascends the throne." Lin Shu shook her fan and said with slightly narrowed eyes.

After she reported to Lu Li about Min County, she left Zijing City that day, and has been staying with Mao Wenyun ever since.

In a foreign country, old acquaintances always make people feel friendly.

"Just rest for a while. Can you stop worrying about that place?"

Seeing that Mao Wenyun was drifting away, Lin Shu rubbed her forehead. Mao Wenyun was good at everything, but she was too crazy about doing things. Once she started, she would devote herself wholeheartedly, and it was difficult for external things to interrupt her.

This also leads to the fact that eight of Lin Shu's ten sentences are talking to herself.

"Today, September 2, Su Xian has won several battles in a row. With the support of all the people, the enthronement ceremony should be held smoothly."

Mao Wenyun turned back to Lin Shu, indicating that she was listening.

"Maybe, King Qin will do something to express his congratulations."

Lin Shu opened her lips lightly and looked at Mao Wenyun's face carefully. Her cheeks were very rosy due to being exposed to the sun. There was a layer of yellow powder on her delicate skin, but not much was washed away by sweat.

In order to cover it up, Mao Wenyun patted some dust on his face, but even so, he still couldn't hide his beautiful face, making people's eyes unable to stop.

His expression never fluctuated too much, and he was restrained and calm. Lin Shuo wanted to tell her that Su Xian was Jiang Jin, but he didn't know if this news would surprise her.

It’s not like there’s no intention of discussing it at all.

"Forget it, go ahead."

Seeing that Mao Wenyun was distracted even looking at her, Lin Shu was speechless and held her forehead, not forcing her to stay.

After sitting for a while, Lin Shu took the umbrella and walked towards Mao Wenyun. This girl worked too hard and refused to take a break even in such a bright sun. Lin Shu was really worried that her vision would go dark and she would fall on a rock.

The county magistrate did the work himself, which encouraged the laborers more than anything else. They carried stones on their backs and sweated profusely, but no one complained. Everyone tried their best.

Although there are no machines or other things, but with people's hearts united, there is no road that cannot be opened.

……

"The auspicious time has come!"

With a loud shout, the big drum was beaten, and the thumping sound hit people's hearts.

There were officials standing under the altar. Amidst the sound of drums, Li Yi walked from the middle of the queue to the altar.

"Dance!"

The moment Li Yi stepped onto the altar, the officials spread their legs and danced.

The majestic martial arts posture made Li Yi's eyes twitch. This step should be omitted.

A group of elderly people, many of whom were very old, could easily break their backs while jumping around.

"kneel!"

After three gongs and drums, the Minister of Rites shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Please, Your Majesty, offer sacrifices to heaven!"

After receiving the incense from the etiquette department staff, Li Yi took two steps forward and inserted the incense into the huge incense burner.

"rise!"

"dance!"

As the Minister of Rites shouted, the officials jumped again.

"bye!"

"Long live my emperor!"

The officials knelt down and chanted in unison.

"rise!"

"dance!"

Looking at the official who was jumping again, Li Yi silently looked away.

"Dong dong dong dong dong dong dong!!!!"

Toward the end of the dance, the drumbeats intensified.

"Undress the Emperor!"

Li Yi opened his hand and allowed the officials from the Ministry of Rites to peel off his dragon robe.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites walked around the altar three times holding the dragon robe, and then threw the dragon robe into the brazier to inform God that they, the Chu Kingdom, had a new emperor.

The drums sounded again, and the ceremonial staff walked to the altar holding the new dragon robe and served Li Yi to put it on.

"Crown!"

Li Yi lowered his head, and the officials from the Ministry of Etiquette put the crown on him.

"Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!" Hundreds of officials knelt down and shouted.

At this point, the process is complete.

Li Yi was seizing the Chu family's empire, and the enthronement ceremony was held at the border. The ancestor worship could only wait until later.

"Everyone is safe."

Li Yi looked down at the dark crowd, and couldn't express what he was feeling at the moment. He felt excitement, pride, and even a hint of trance.

He has almost forgotten where he came from. Is everything happening here real?

"call out!"

Fireworks and drums woke Li Yi up. He raised his head and his eyes gradually became clear.

Even if this is a lie, he is willing to perish.

"Yuan..., Your Majesty, Liang Meng has not made any move."

After offering sacrifices to the sky, Li Yi is the new emperor of Chu, and this title has to be changed.

After Tian Jie was stunned for a short time, he continued to report to Li Yi, "There are no spies from the Qin Kingdom in the surrounding area for hundreds of miles."

Li Yiqing frowned, "This is surprising, he actually allowed me to ascend to the throne of God."

"Since the assassination in Suizhou, Liang Meng has disappeared without any movement."

"We have searched all over the Qin Kingdom, but we still can't find anyone."

"The more settled he is, the more disturbing he becomes."

"I'm afraid something is brewing." Li Yi frowned.

I wish I could kill him with a thousand knives, but I can't find him. This feeling is extremely depressing.

"Keep them on their toes."

Li Yi got on his horse and went back to the camp to change clothes.

"emperor."

A voice stopped him.

"Huh? Did you come here specially to salute me?" Li Yi looked at Zhou Pan jokingly.

Zhou Pan said with a straight face, "Your Majesty has an unusual status now and should be more serious."

"It makes sense. The Zhou family has worked hard and achieved great results. I will issue an imperial edict tomorrow to promote General Zhou to the rank of Grand Sima."

"At least General Zhou, who is young and energetic, will inevitably be arrogant, so he should go to the city defense camp to practice."

Li Yi glanced sideways at Zhou Pan, his posture high.

Zhou Pan lowered his eyes. As expected, he could not be expected to change his gender after becoming emperor. The words coming out of his mouth made people want to lift an iron rod.
