Chapter 287 The New King
After Fu Guiyun asked Cheng Kui to escort Lu Linzhi's coffin out of the palace, a palace servant came to report: "Queen, His Majesty has passed away."
After a moment of silence, she looked at the calm Lu Qingchen and Lu Qingyu beside her and whispered, "After all, they are father and son. Let's go and see him off."
Lu Qingyu was a little afraid: "Mother."
"Not afraid."
Fu Guiyun picked her up, held Lu Qingchen's hand, and went to the Yangxin Palace together.
There were already quite a few people gathered outside the hall. When they saw Fu Guiyun, they all came forward to greet him.
"Empress, His Majesty passed away suddenly, and left a will, ordering the Empress to help the Crown Prince ascend the throne."
The Minister of War carefully looked at Lu Qingchen and said, "It's just that the Crown Prince..."
He didn't dare say what came next.
Fu Guiyun knew what he meant.
The prince was born to Du Jiuniang, and I am afraid that many people do not agree with him inheriting the throne.
But Wuyou is less than two years old, and the future situation is hard to predict. He is simply unable to shoulder the responsibility of governing Daning.
Given Lu Linzhi’s current condition, it’s unknown when he will wake up. Besides, given his personality, he probably doesn’t like being bound by the court.
Since the father-in-law and mother-in-law have already accepted Lu Qingchen and Lu Qingyu, they have the blood of the Lu family flowing in their veins. Under the current circumstances, Lu Qingchen is the most suitable candidate to inherit the throne.
The world has suffered from war for a long time. She now only hopes that there will be a wise king who can support the country and govern this devastated Central Plains in an orderly manner.
"When the late emperor was alive, he had already appointed Chen'er as the eldest grandson. Now that your majesty has left a will, we should respect your majesty's will."
Looking at everyone, Fu Guiyun solemnly warned: "You should assist the crown prince well in the future."
Seeing the queen's words, everyone knelt down and vowed: "We will obey the queen's will, support the new king, and assist him wholeheartedly."
Only then did Fu Guiyun feel at ease leading the two little guys into the hall.
Chu Huaixi, Fang Yi and the others all knelt in front of the palace. The imperial doctors were in a panic for a while, and each of them came forward at a loss, frowning and reporting: "Your Majesty's internal injuries are quite serious, and there is no way to save him."
Chu Huaixi burst into tears first, pointing at Fu Guiyun and saying hysterically: "You killed His Majesty."
Ye Qiong was so angry that she almost jumped into a rage and yelled, "Royal Concubine, have you lost your mind? The Queen has not even been to Funing Palace today, how could she harm His Majesty?"
Chu Huaixi cried until her eyes were red, but she still looked at Fu Guiyun: "You knew that His Majesty was still ill, but you still let the young master and young lady of the Ye family persuade His Majesty to indulge in the banquet, and asked the princess to report the matter of Du Jiuniang to the emperor. You have ulterior motives."
"Royal Concubine, I think you will feel uncomfortable if you don't throw some dirty water on the Queen."
Ye Qiong continued angrily, "If you continue to bite people, I will immediately ask you to accompany him while His Majesty's heroic spirit is still here."
Lu Qingchen went out and grabbed a sword from the guard, pointing at Chu Huaixi angrily: "Didn't you personally organize today's banquet for His Majesty? If you didn't have ulterior motives, causing the father-in-law and court officials to remain in prison, how could you force those loyal and honest people to thoroughly investigate my biological mother's background?"
Looking at the cold and sinister sword in his hand, Chu Huaixi sneered: "Why, before His Majesty's body is cold and the Crown Prince ascends the throne, you want to kill my concubine mother?"
Glancing at Fangyi angrily, she shouted, "Shufei, please read out the emperor's will to everyone."
Fang Yi knelt down in front of Fu Guiyun without hesitation and calmly said, "Your Majesty has issued an order. Your Majesty is ashamed of the late emperor and the queen mother and has no face to live in this world. Please consider the people of the world and support the prince to ascend the throne."
"You are talking nonsense."
Chu Huaixi was so angry that he almost vomited blood: "Your Majesty just said to depose the Queen and the Crown Prince, and to make the Second Prince the Crown Prince."
"The Imperial Concubine."
Fang Yi's eyes were stern. "How dare you question His Majesty's will? Or do you have ulterior motives again? Do you think that by helping Wuyou become the crown prince, you can control us mother and son?"
"I……"
Chu Huaixi was suddenly choked.
Fang Yi once again solemnly said to Fu Guiyun: "The country cannot be without a king for a day. Please obey your majesty's will and order the prince to inherit the throne in front of the spirit to consolidate the foundation of the country."
Hearing this, Fu Guiyun silently looked at Fang Yi for a moment, and glanced at Lu Linchu's body.
I don't know whether it was Chu Huaixi who instigated or Lu Linchu really planned to depose the queen and the prince, but Fangyi was very smart to choose to support the prince at this time.
Although she no longer had any desire for power, for the sake of Daning's stability and to give Lu Linzhi a chance of survival, she had no choice but to support Lu Qingchen to ascend the throne. She would never tolerate anyone using a baby to bring disaster to Daning.
No one expected Lu Linchu to pass away so suddenly. As Fangyi was the last person to stay with him, her words were naturally beyond doubt.
Pulling Lu Qingchen to stand in front of Lu Linchu's bed, Fu Guiyun said earnestly: "Prince, you have heard everything. Your father left a will, ordering you to inherit the throne. I hope you will work hard to govern the country in the future, and don't let down your grandmother, grandfather and the ancestors of the Lu family."
Having witnessed the cruelty and ruthlessness of his father's fight for imperial power, Lu Qingchen now feels extremely afraid whenever he thinks of the cold throne.
He pulled Fu Guiyun's skirt and shook his head: "Mother, I don't want to be an emperor. I just want to be with you."
Everyone in the hall frowned when they heard this.
"Prince, stop talking nonsense."
Ye Zhan hurried over to persuade him: "You are the eldest grandson appointed by the late emperor, and the heir appointed by your father before his death. How can you back down?"
After saying that, he immediately knelt down and pleaded sincerely: "Please Queen, please announce your decree and ask the father-in-law to be released from prison and assist the new king to become emperor."
Although her father's character did not have any great talent, he dared to speak out directly, which was indeed a sharp sword for assisting the king. Fu Guiyun thought about it for a moment. At present, Da Ning still needed a stable transition, so she had to rely on the power of her foreign relatives.
Leading Lu Qingchen to the side hall, she first patiently advised: "Chen'er, have you forgotten what you promised your royal grandmother? You promised your royal grandmother to be a good king and protect the country of Daning."
Lu Qingchen choked up and said, "But my biological mother..."
Thinking about what his biological mother had done, he felt extremely guilty and uneasy at this moment.
"It is precisely because your biological mother let down the Lu family and the people of Liyang, and let down your royal grandfather and royal grandmother that you should face the challenge head-on."
Fu Guiyun continued to persuade: "You must promise your mother to be a good king and govern the country of Daning well, so that you will not let your grandmother down."
Lu Qingchen raised his eyes and looked at her eagerly: "Will the Queen Mother always accompany me?"
"of course."
Fu Guiyun pursed her lips and smiled: "Mother will always be behind you, watching you create a peaceful and prosperous era."
Lu Qingchen finally felt at ease, and thinking about his grandmother and grandfather, he immediately knelt down and replied solemnly: "Your son obeys your order."
Fu Guiyun was extremely pleased and whispered some instructions in his ear before returning to the Yangxin Palace together.
Looking at everyone in the palace, Lu Qingchen was no longer as timid as before, and ordered solemnly: "Grand Eunuch You, pass the imperial decree to confer the title of Duke Rongning on Ye Zhicheng, and order Duke Rongning to assist my grandfather in governing the country and help me manage the government."
The eight-year-old new king finally agreed to succeed to the throne in front of the coffin, and the clan members all breathed a sigh of relief.
