Prince of Prey's Little Ginseng Extract [Transmigration Book]

Several other ministers followed and knelt down: "I implore His Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne!"

Lin Shoufu didn't want to, and it was hard to say anything at this point. It happened so suddenly, even if he wanted to support King Xuan, he couldn't get past the prince.

"There's no rush for this matter, we'll talk about it after the emperor's funeral."

"The enthronement ceremony may take some time to prepare. Before that, Your Highness should take on the responsibility of being the king of a country," Fu Guogong bowed deeply, "I will refer to the emperor."

Fu Guogong has a detached position in the court, and when he speaks, other ministers hurriedly bow down.

"My ministers, see your Majesty."

Xiao Shengyun didn't evade this time, he stepped forward to help Fu Guogong: "My lords, get up quickly, I hope you will take care of the future."

By the time the ministers came out of the palace, it was already late at night.

Soon, the news spread. For the prince's lineage, this result was naturally worthy of joy and encouragement. Those who supported other princes felt less comfortable.

This night is a sleepless night for those who are in the center of power. After tonight, the new emperor succeeds to the throne, and the forces in the DPRK and China are bound to usher in a big cleansing.

"My lord, is there no room for this matter?" In the study of Prince Xuan's mansion, a confidant frowned and asked.

This accident caught everyone by surprise, even King Xuan didn't expect that the idiot King Cheng would kill Emperor Chongming and disrupt his plan directly.

Now the prince's accession to the throne has become a certainty, unless they can produce evidence of the prince's rebellion, but this is unrealistic, not to mention that the prince has acted cautiously this year, and no one can catch his mistakes, let alone what happened in the other palace , but several ministers witnessed it with their own eyes.

"My lord, Mr. Lin, please see me." A servant came in and said in a low voice.

King Xuan raised his head and was about to speak when he saw Lin Shoufu walking in beside the boy. He waved his hands: "Go down first."

The confidants retreated one by one.

"Why is grandfather here so late?" King Xuan got up and helped Lin Shoufu to sit down.

"I just came out of the palace and came to see you."

A servant brought the tea, and Lin Shoufu picked it up and took a sip: "I don't know what the prince did, but he actually persuaded Duke Fu, and Duke Fu personally asked the prince to ascend the throne. I'm afraid we can only watch helplessly. gone."

"The crown prince is the heir apparent. If something happened to the father, it is natural for him to ascend the throne. My grandfather doesn't have to think too much."

"I'm worried about you. The crown prince is a cold-hearted person. He has a weak relationship with you brothers. When the first emperor was here, he kept you in the capital for the sake of your mother and concubine. For so many years, based on this, you It is also the crown prince's thorn in the flesh, now that he is in power, have you thought about what to do?"

This matter was really embarrassing for King Xuan. His original plan was to let Emperor Chongming consume the power of the crown prince a little bit because of jealousy, so that he could secretly develop his own power. In the whole Daqi, except for Emperor Chongming who could suppress the crown prince, no one could pose a threat to him.

"Does grandfather know what happened in the other palace, and why the second prince killed his father?" Everyone with a certain influence in the court knew about these inside stories, and King Xuan was no exception.

"Are you worried that there is something hidden about this matter?" Lin Shoufu put down his teacup.

"I know I can't figure it out, the reason why King Cheng did it." King Xuan's eyes drooped slightly, and the expression in them was withdrawn.

"Because he felt that he would succeed, he exposed his ambition to the emperor in advance. We guessed that there were problems with the imperial decrees before, and it was true. At that time, the first emperor fell into the hands of the king. A young eunuch passed the news to Fu Guogong and others, and these people told the prince the news, but we were the only ones who were kept in the dark from the beginning to the end."

Lin Shoufu stroked his beard: "Your father, don't believe us."

"I've verified that the people your father sent the news to were not in line, but after they got the news, they didn't go to the rescue immediately, but told the prince the news, and the one who suddenly asked the prince to leave the city on behalf of the emperor The imperial decree is actually a conspiracy against the prince, King Cheng colluded with the five princes of Beimang, trying to intercept and kill the prince outside the city."

These news, following the arrest of King Cheng, are no longer secrets. Lin Shoufu has been operating in the court for many years and has his own channels, so he got the news immediately.

"Right now, those old ministers of Duke Fu are on the side of the prince. The situation is very unfavorable to us."

"I know that my father has passed away. As sons, we should send him off for the last time, and those brothers of my father should also return to Beijing. Grandpa remembers to restrain the people in the clan, and stop when things need to be done. This paragraph Don't let the prince get caught in time, save yourself so that you can seek more in the future."

"I know."

"Grandfather doesn't need to be too anxious. The prince is poisoned. Even if he behaves as usual now, no one knows when the strange poison in his body will explode. What about the momentary triumph? Who will be the final winner? Until the last moment, Who can guarantee that he will have the last laugh?"

The gloomy look in King Xuan's eyes flashed past, and when he raised his eyes again, they had returned to normal.

"What you said is that if there is no concubine for the concubine, it is unknown whether he can wake up, this concubine..." Lin Shoufu had a sinister look on his face.

"Don't attack him unless it is absolutely necessary." King Xuan rubbed the wall of the teacup.

"Why?" Lin Shoufu frowned, "Your mother and concubine said before that you seem to be a little interested in him..."

"Grandfather, don't think too much," King Xuan interrupted him, "The crown princess is the candidate personally appointed by Master Qianwu, and he helped the crown prince through a desperate situation. There may be something strange about him. Tight, if you make a rash move, you will definitely get burned."

"What you said is not unreasonable." Lin Shoufu believed in the last point. The prince made several moves, all for the sake of the princess.

The matter of Emperor Chongming cast a shadow over the New Year. At this juncture, it is impossible for the court to make a big deal, and the fireworks on the night of the New Year were also cancelled.

Jiang Ling had been looking forward to it for a long time, and she felt a little regretful when she got this news. However, the situation was special, so it was not incomprehensible to him.

The layout of the palace changed from festive red to white.

The cause of Emperor Chongming's death is not honorable, and his son wiped his neck or something, and it's not nice to say it. After discussing with the court, they decided to hide the real reason, and only said to the outside world that it was King Cheng's rebellion that killed the first emperor.

King Cheng was imprisoned. He was accused of too many crimes. The court needed to discuss how to convict him. His title had already been taken away from him, and his fief had also been taken back. Discussions about his punishment were still underway.

Although the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, everyone's address for Xiao Shengyun has changed from prince to emperor, and from the moment he returns to the palace, he has become the real ruler of Daqi.

The living place was moved out from the East Palace.

Xiao Shengyun briefly dealt with important matters and returned to the East Palace.

It was already early morning, and besides the palace guards at night, there were many guards in the dark, which were specially arranged by Xiao Shengyun, who was worried that King Cheng's people would be unfavorable to the East Palace.

The palace was quiet, and Eunuch Fan followed behind Xiao Chengyun. He was the eunuch next to Xiao Chengyun, and he had been working with Xiao Chengyun just now, so he came back with him this time.

It was so late, Xiao Shengyun could have stayed in the imperial study room, because in more than an hour, he needed to go to court, and so many things had happened, he had to give an explanation to the outside world.

All the way to the bedroom, the palace servants were about to report, but Xiao Shengyun stopped him.

The door was gently pushed open, Xiao Shengyun walked in alone without letting the palace servants follow.

Without any pause in his footsteps, he went straight to the bed.

Jiang Ling lay under the quilt, breathing lightly.

Xiao Chengyun sat down by the bed, he didn't intend to sleep on the bed, he just wanted to squint for a while, there were too many things waiting for him to do.

Seeming to feel a familiar atmosphere, the person in the quilt arched.

Xiao Shengyun patted him across the quilt.

He didn't mean to wake up Jiang Ling, too many things happened today, even though everything was planned in advance, and the plan was guaranteed not to go wrong, but his spirit was tense all day long.

Until this moment, sitting next to the boy, he was able to relax for a moment.

When Jiang Ling woke up the next day, she didn't see Xiao Shengyun, and asked, "Has your Highness not come back yet?"

"Your Highness came back last night, and went to court early this morning. He said that he might be busy today, so he couldn't guarantee the time to come back." Qing Yao tidied Jiang Ling's hair.

"Your Highness, no, it's time to call Your Majesty. Your Majesty has become the Emperor. Young Master, you will be the Empress from now on."

"Queen," Jiang Ling straightened her sleeves and stood up, "Will the ministers agree?"

The man is the queen, if Xiao Shengyun mentions it, it will definitely have a big impact on these ministers.

The situation in the DPRK and China is exactly as Jiang Ling imagined.

Most of the time in the morning court was spent discussing the affairs of King Cheng, including the five princes of Beimang who participated in it. The elites brought by the fifth prince of Beimang who tried to intercept the prince had been wiped out by the prince's soldiers.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the five princes of Beimang were about to escape, but they were blocked. The Ukrainian mission, which had a deep connection with King Cheng, was also taken down.

After arguing about these things, the Minister of Rites came out and talked about the enthronement ceremony, Xiao Shengyun proposed that the enthronement ceremony and the posthumous ceremony be held together.

Jiang Ling was the only one beside Xiao Shengyun, so it was self-evident who was named empress.

This can be said to have exploded the pot.

The imperial envoy knelt on the ground and said hoarsely: "Your Majesty, this is not appropriate. Daqi has never had a male empress before. Please follow the etiquette. Your Majesty, think twice."

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Sitting on the dragon chair, Xiao Shengyun looked down at the people kneeling on the ground from a high position, and said coldly: "I have already decided on this matter, you don't need to say more, Lord Jiang will do as I say, if there is nothing else, Let's go back."

When Xiao Shengyun was the prince, he was a master who would not be easily influenced by others, let alone now that he has become the emperor, if he is related to the country and is for the good of Daqi, he may listen to persuasion, but for him, who What's next is his own business, and these people can't tolerate it.

The imperial envoy got up from the ground and gave Jiang Zhiyuan a bitter look, and the eyes of other ministers also fell on Jiang Zhiyuan vaguely.

It seemed that he had instigated this matter.

Jiang Zhiyuan was troubled and couldn't tell. He was the one who mentioned the enthronement ceremony, because he was the Minister of Rites, and he was in charge of this matter. He couldn't say nothing about it.

He also didn't expect that the crown prince had such deep feelings for Jiang Ling. You must know that the Conferment Ceremony held together with the Enthronement Ceremony has higher standards and different meanings than the Conferment Ceremony held separately.

Throughout history, there are very few people who can receive such treatment.

Even His Majesty's mother, the empress, did not treat her like this. Back then, the Xie family was so powerful that Emperor Chongming delayed conferring the daughter of the Xie family as empress only after the enthronement ceremony, along with the noble concubine.

In comparison, Xiao Shengyun's importance to Jiang Ling should not be too obvious.

The ministers were in a complicated mood and wanted to persuade them again, but looking at their colleagues, no one wanted to add trouble to others on the first day of the new emperor's reign.

It's okay, there is still some time before the enthronement ceremony, so it's not that there is no room for change.

The ministers were comforting themselves in their hearts, and they heard Xiao Shengyun speak.

"By the way, there is no precedent for the empress to be a man. I hope that the empress' dress and post-sealing process can be changed, as well as the title. The Ministry of Rites will first discuss and come up with a charter for me to review."

The ministers swallowed a mouthful of old blood in their hearts. You also know that the queen is a man, and you also know that there is no precedent. Why do you have to do it? !

Xiao Shengyun knocked on the armrest of the dragon chair, and continued: "When the princess concubine and I got married, I was unconscious, and the wedding process was not completed. Let's take this opportunity to make it up."

The ministers could see that the new king didn't care about the enthronement ceremony at all. Maybe in his mind, the enthronement ceremony was incidental.
