Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

She originally didn't want to leave with Emperor Dafeng. She thought these people were here to follow her and leave with her, but she didn't know they were here to silence her...

"Your Majesty, what should I do about my father?"

Queen Yang Chunyan looked at the shouts of killing outside the palace and turned pale with fright. He also knew that at this time, his father was leading the Yulin Army to fight to the death against the rebels.

Hearing Yang Chunyan mention An Guogong, Emperor Dafeng's face showed a bit of ridicule: "Your father is a scheming man, do you think he will stay in Anjing? I'm afraid he left a long time ago, and now this An Guogong is probably A fake, let’s leave quickly.”

Emperor Dafeng ordered his entourage to forcefully pull Yang Chunyan into the cellar. After entering the cellar, everyone discovered that a carriage had been prepared inside the very spacious, bright and flat cellar.

Not only was the carriage filled with gold and silver treasures, but there were also a mass of dead soldiers lurking in the underground palace.

"You stay here after I leave. There is a passage here that leads directly to a powerful attack. You look for opportunities to assassinate Ning Fan."

After boarding the carriage, Emperor Dafeng said coldly to these dead soldiers.

These dead soldiers were only loyal to Ning Qing. They were trained by Yan Wudao with great pains. Unexpectedly, after Yan Wudao was killed, these dead soldiers became Ning Qing's die-hard loyalists and became the sharpest knife in his hand.

Even when he was defeated, he never forgot to plant a nail for Ning Fan.

Ning Fan knew very well that the battle outside the palace gate was not for resistance, but to delay the attack. At this time, Ning Qing might have already escaped without a trace.

Sure enough, when Ning Fan entered the palace at dawn, he discovered that only the palace maids and eunuchs were left in such a large palace. Apart from that, Qing fled without a trace.

As for how Ning Qing escaped, no one knew where he escaped from. It was as if he suddenly disappeared from the world.

"Your Highness, Duke An Guo, who fought tooth and nail last night, has been captured."

Chen Yuanqing came in to announce the good news.

Ning Fan was not very interested in this, but soon several guards escorted An Guo Gong away. When he came in and looked at the fat Duke An, Ning Fan frowned. Ning Fan had seen An Guo Gong before, but he was very tall. It's not like this.

Although the appearance is somewhat similar, the person in front of him is obviously Li Gui.

"This is not Duke An. I'm afraid the real Duke An has already escaped."

Ning Fan waved his hand and ordered people to take the fake Duke An Guo down.

"Your Highness, what should we do next?"

Chen Yuanqing said excitedly.

Ning Fan glanced at Huang Chao, who was silent next to him, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Take over the imperial army first, come over and dismiss all the officers on the spot and throw them into the sky prison. You will be responsible for the rest."

"In addition, you are responsible for the defense of the capital. Remember, Qiu has done nothing. I don't want to see chaos in the capital. I want it to be the same as before. It's as if everything never happened."

Ning Fan ordered towards Chen Yuanqing.

Ning Fan gave Chen Yuanqing two main tasks. The first was the issue of the Royal Guards, and the second was the security issue within the capital. These two issues fell on Chen Yuanqing's shoulders. Ning Fan believed that Chen Yuanqing could handle these issues well. Two questions.

Then Ning Fan saw Huang Chao again: "General Huang, you will take over the defense of our capital. Immediately reinforce the city walls and produce cement to make the entire capital of Anjing impregnable. When the Northwest Army comes to Anjing, I will An impregnable capital city.”

Huang Chao nodded and accepted the order: "If the Northwest Army receives the order and rushes to Kyoto, it will take a month at the earliest. There is still plenty of time. Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely handle this matter. "

Ning Fan fell silent after giving instructions to the two of them, while Huang Chao and Chen Yuanqing were a little confused. The things Ning Fan ordered were just some issues regarding public security and city defense, but the real core issue Ning Fan didn't mention a word about.

Now they have captured Kyoto, but how to ascend the throne and deal with the civil and military officials is a big problem, but Ning Fan does not seem to have any plan on this core issue.

"Your Highness, what should we do with the civil and military officials? This is the key to whether your position can be recognized by orthodoxy in the future."

Huang Chao couldn't help but remind him.

If Ning Fan proclaimed himself emperor, it would be a conspiracy to usurp the throne, which would not be recognized. However, if civil and military officials took the initiative to crown Ning Fan, then Ning Fan would have gained legitimacy.

"They are the ones who are not anxious about this issue. We can only wait here calmly. Someone will definitely come to find us secretly."

Ning Fan waved his hand slightly.

Hearing what Ning Fan said, whether it was Huang Chao or Chen Yuanqing, they felt admiration in their hearts. In terms of understanding of human nature, Ning Fan dared to be the first, and no one dared to be the second.

Naturally, the maids and eunuchs in the palace could no longer be used. On the first day Ning Fan entered the palace, he ordered all these maids and eunuchs to be dismissed, and each of them would be given severance pay and sent back to the people.

The second thing Ning Fan did was to return directly to his Qing Prince's Mansion. He did not live in the palace, but returned to his former home.

In the evening, the chaos outside finally calmed down, and the people on the street no longer looked so panicked. People dared to go out to buy groceries, and did whatever they needed to do. Everything seemed to be back to its original state.

Nothing happened on the first night, and no one came to visit secretly. But on the afternoon of the second day, Cheng Wei, the chief minister of the cabinet, was the first to visit.

"Your Highness, the first thing you have to do on this occasion is to issue a notice to calm the people, and then tell the world exactly what happened."

Cheng Wei, the chief assistant of the cabinet, didn't talk much after entering the door, and directly stated his intention.

Ning Fan and this old gentleman have known each other for a long time, and they have a mutual understanding. They have long known what the other person is really thinking, so Ning Fan has no doubts about Cheng Wei's words.

"Master Cheng, in your opinion, what is the most important thing for me to do now?"

Ning Fan asked again.

"What His Highness has to do now is to contain the murderous intention in his heart. He must not kill innocent people indiscriminately, even those with problems."

Cheng Wei thought for a while and said thoughtfully.

These are words worth a thousand dollars, and Ning Fan naturally understood the meaning. He nodded: "There was a fire in the palace last night, and my brother, Emperor Dafeng, was missing..."

Ning Fan looked at the chief minister of the cabinet with a half-smile but not a smile. Cheng Wei said slowly. Before he finished speaking, Cheng Wei immediately understood what Ning Fan meant: "If this is the case, that would be great." , His Highness’s ascension to the throne is a matter of course, as brothers have always followed the rule of brotherhood, and this does not violate human ethics at all.”
