Returning after three years of reincarnation in the world of martial arts

Chapter 267 Enthroned
Yuan Miaoyu's motorcade galloped towards the palace. The streets in the early morning were empty, allowing the cars to run very fast.

In the car in the middle.

Sitting beside Yuan Miaoyu, Li Zhongwu seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed.

He was indeed asleep.

He believed in his intuition about danger, and believed that if danger was approaching, his sixth sense exchanged from the main god would wake him up immediately, so he slept with peace of mind.

After all, it was early morning, and he didn't want to waste his sleep time.

Yuan Miaoyu turned her face several times to look at Li Zhongwu next to her, telling her rationally—he should be resting with his eyes closed, but her intuition always told her—he was asleep.

There was an impulse in her heart - she wanted to see if he was asleep or not?

But reason told her again - it was very rare for him to be willing to accompany her into the palace at this time, and he couldn't be annoyed.

So, she kept holding back and didn't call him.

It wasn't until the motorcade drove into the palace and the car stopped at the square in front of the Golden Luan Hall that she lightly touched his arm and called softly, "Here we are!"

Li Zhongwu breathed out lightly, opened his sleepy eyes, yawned casually, opened the door and got out of the car.

Yuan Miaoyu looked at the back of him getting out of the car in astonishment, and a thought came to her mind——did he really fall asleep just now?
Is he big-hearted?Still unreliable?
Shenfeng Kingdom has already invaded Dayan, and she is about to forcibly proclaim herself emperor. At such an important moment, how can he still sleep?

With a complicated mood, she got out of the car and looked up at the civil and military officials gathered in the square. She suppressed the messy thoughts in her heart, lowered her face, and strode indifferently towards the steps of the Golden Luan Hall.

"your Highness!"

"your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

……

Wherever she passed, the officials along the way bowed slightly to her.

Yuan Miaoyu just nodded slightly every time, Li Zhongwu squinted his eyes and walked beside her, returning a faint smile to all the curious eyes looking at him.

Tonight, he didn't wear a mask, and he didn't change his appearance.

Because on the way here, Yuan Miaoyu had told him: As long as she can become emperor tonight, then... as long as she doesn't allow it, no media or individual will dare to report the identity of his son-in-law.

As she walked up to the top of the steps in front of the gate of the Golden Luan Hall, Yuan Miaoyu stopped, and slowly turned to face all the officials in the square.

She intentionally postponed her arrival at the palace for half an hour tonight, in order to give the civil and military officials who received the news an earlier time to enter the palace.

At this time, hundreds of civil and military officials had gathered in the square.

These are the important ministers who are in Tianque City today, and the other important ministers who are in various places in Dayan cannot make it tonight, and she did not let anyone notify those people.

Seeing her turn to face the ministers in the square, Li Zhongwu also stopped, turned around, and looked at with a smile.

Among the officials, he also saw princes wearing python robes.

Among them, the prince Yuan Miaoting was no longer seen.

Of course, neither the Fourth Prince Yuan Miaochuan nor the Ninth Prince Yuan Miaoshu could be seen.

As Yuan Miaoyu turned to face the officials, all the people gathered in the square subconsciously stepped forward and formed two rows according to civil and martial arts.

When the formation was formed, Yuan Miaoyu finally spoke in a low tone: "All you are the pillars of my great flames, and many people present must have received the news that the Northern Shenfeng Kingdom will fight without announcing tonight, Karma The Alien Beast Legion in the city has already set out to kill the giant stone city in the northern border of Dayan. Although the palace has sent an order to the city lord and guard of the giant rock city to prepare for the defense of the city, they must guard the city, but the alien beasts of the Shenfeng Kingdom The legion suddenly attacked, and the preparation time of Boulder City was seriously insufficient, and the force was less than half of that of the Alien Beast Legion, so it might be difficult to resist for a long time..."

The square was quiet, only Yuan Miaoyu's voice echoed.

The courtiers who can come here at this time are all well-informed, and basically know that Yuan Miaoyu, the princess of Zhenguo, has completely controlled the entire imperial palace's imperial army.

During the day, Rui Wang Yuan Weitao and "Dragon King" Tao Yu were defeated in a row.

Those who were more informed had already learned that the crown prince, Yuan Miaoting, had escaped from Tianque City tonight.

Therefore, everyone present knew the current situation, at least in this palace, no one dared to easily offend Yuan Miaoyu.

When Yuan Miaoyu said this, her stern eyes slowly swept across all the people in the square, she paused, and suddenly said with a heavy tone: "At the time when foreign enemies invaded and the northern border was in turmoil, I thought that the new emperor should be elected as soon as possible. Only when the emperor ascends the throne as soon as possible can the people and material resources of the entire Dayan be gathered as soon as possible to fight against the invasion of the Shenfeng Kingdom as soon as possible, do you have any objections to this?"

There was a slight commotion in the square, almost everyone looked surprised and exchanged glances with each other, almost no one expected that Yuan Miaoyu would ask everyone to elect a new emperor in the early hours of the morning.

This is simply unprecedented.

Suddenly, an old official standing in front of the civil servants bent his body, took a step sideways, bowed his head and cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know, Your Highness, which prince do you want to take the throne?"

Immediately, everyone's voices in the square disappeared. Everyone, especially the princes present, held their breath and looked at Yuan Miaoyu at the top of the steps.

It stands to reason that the person who inherits the throne should indeed be a certain prince.

but……

Yuan Miaoyu narrowed her eyes slightly, with her hands behind her waist, her eyes were full of evil spirits, but the corners of her mouth raised a smile, and she said slowly: "I intend to lead Dayan to fight against the invasion of Shenfeng Kingdom, I wonder if any of you dear relatives have any objections?"

Even though the famous princes in the square had some guesses in their hearts, they were all astonished when they really heard her reveal such ambitions in public.

The ministers were also in an uproar.

Suddenly, a civic official in the middle hurriedly stepped out and shouted loudly: "No!! There has never been such a precedent in the Great Yan! There is no such precedent in the history of new mankind! Your Royal Highness, please take back this thought!! Absolutely not!" Doing this act of disrupting the court!!"

Yuan Miaoyu looked over with cold eyes.

Suddenly, another civil official came out, knelt down on his knees, touched his forehead to the ground, and said in a mournful tone: "Your Highness, please! The Shenfeng Kingdom is invading. Once the news comes out tomorrow, the world will definitely shake. I am afraid that the world will be in an uproar at the news of the succession, and at the time when foreign enemies are invading, I think that Her Royal Highness must not let the great inflammation worse! Your Highness, please think twice!!"

Before the man finished speaking, several civil servants and military generals came out one after another, echoed one after another, and knelt down one by one to ask Her Royal Highness to think twice.

For a while, there was a lot of opposition to Yuan Miaoyu's succession, as if most of the ministers were against it.

But in fact, only one-fifth of the people actually came out to express their opposition.

Li Zhongwu looked at this scene, smiled, turned to look at Yuan Miaoyu beside him, he wanted to see how she would react at this time?How determined is she to ascend the throne?
Will she shake her previous decision?

He saw that Yuan Miaoyu's expression did not change, the corner of her mouth was still smiling, and her eyes were still full of evil spirit.

"Which Aiqing objects? Is there any more?"

She asked in a deep voice.

Everyone could feel the evil spirit in her tone, so the square quickly fell silent.

It became audible, and no one stood up to oppose it.

Yuan Miaoyu squinted at them, and waited quietly for seven or eight seconds. Seeing that no one stood up, she spoke again: "All those who come out will be thrown into the sky prison! But if there are any resisters, they will be sent to the prison on the spot." execution!"

Following her words full of murderous intent, expressions on the square changed, whether they were already out or not.

And the imperial guards who had gathered around for a long time rushed up immediately, like pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, dragging down all the civil servants and generals who had just come out.

No one dared to resist.

Only the voices of begging for mercy and screaming became farther and farther away.

After a while, the crowd in the square thinned out a lot, and a gust of night wind blew by, and Li Zhongwu smelled a faint smell of urine, probably because a courtier who was dragged down just now was scared to urinate.

He subconsciously held his breath.

Yuan Miaoyu beside her also frowned, and then she said in a deep voice: "You think that in the past 1000 years of history, there is no precedent for a woman to ascend the throne, so this palace should not be enthroned, but as far as I know, in ancient times In the history of the powerful Tang Dynasty, there was once a queen named Wu Zetian. According to historical records, she was called Wu Zetian! Relevant historical materials will be announced to the world tomorrow. Dear friends, you can Wait and see!"

Most of the courtiers in the square were surprised.

Whispering whispers arose.

Li Zhongwu faintly heard the discussion below.

"Brother Wu, did such a queen really appear in your Wu ancestors?"

"Brother Li, I, I don't know..."

"Master Huang, is the empress Her Royal Highness just mentioned true or false?"

"Master Fang, I still want to ask you! Why did you ask me first?"

"Master Sun, you have great knowledge and knowledge. I wonder if you have ever heard of such a queen in ancient times?"

"This... maybe there is! After all, Her Royal Highness is famous for her photographic memory. She has read many books. Maybe she has really read such historical materials."

"It's no wonder Her Royal Highness dared to think of succeeding to the throne. The original reason is here..."

"So... there is a saying in ancient times that really makes sense! A woman who has no talent is a virtue. If a woman reads a lot, it is easy to imitate the ancients..."

……

Listening to the whispers below, Yuan Miaoyu listened expressionlessly for a while, then suddenly turned and walked into the Golden Luan Hall behind her.

Li Zhongwu was a little surprised when he saw this, but he followed in with a smile.

The princes and officials in the square all fell silent, looking at the backs of Yuan Miaoyu and Li Zhongwu in surprise.

At this moment, a female official's voice came from outside the palace gate: "Go to court! The ministers enter the palace!!!"

The expressions of most people in the square became brighter.

Many people didn't expect Yuan Miaoyu to be in such a hurry. She just said that she would succeed to the throne. How long has it been?Is there half an hour?Is this about to go to court and let the officials pay homage?
The princes also had different expressions, and most of the princes subconsciously looked at the second prince Yuan Miaotang and the third prince Yuan Miaoduo.

At this time the crown prince was not around, the second prince Yuan Miaotang and the third prince Yuan Miaoduo became the most likely candidates for the throne in the minds of all the princes.

Even though everyone knew that Yuan Miaoduo seemed to have surrendered to Yuan Miaoyu during the day, but who knew whether Yuan Miaoduo was convinced or not?Who knows if he will take the risk at this moment?Give it another go?
Of course, according to the ranking of the princes, the person who is most qualified to compete for the throne at this time should be the second prince, the "virtuous king" Yuan Miaotang.

Yuan Miaotang has a dignified appearance, a school of literati, with clear features.

At this time, he was watched by the younger brothers behind him, but there was no change in his expression. After thinking quietly for a moment, Yuan Miaotang was the first to walk forward.

His actions quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the square.

With a smile on his face, Yuan Miaotang strutted up the steps and walked towards the gate of the Golden Luan Hall.

The other people saw each other with different expressions. Then, the civil servants and military generals standing in the front looked at each other and strode forward.

Seeing the other people, after a little hesitation, they followed up the steps one by one and walked into the majestic Golden Luan Hall.

Yuan Miaoyu was already sitting on the golden dragon chair, Li Zhongwu had no seat, so he leaned on a golden pillar beside him, closed his eyes and meditated.

Following the group of officials entering the hall, the second prince Yuan Miaotang who was walking in the front lifted the front of the python robe, and was the first in the crowd to kneel down respectfully.

He shouted respectfully: "Long live my emperor!!"

Among the other people who followed him into the palace, some showed admiration, some were surprised, and some were speechless.

But soon, everyone in the hall knelt down one after another, shouting "Long live my emperor" one after another.

In the early hours of the morning, Yuan Miaoyu actually ascended the throne.

Li Zhongwu opened his eyes, looked at Yuan Miaoyu who was sitting peacefully on the dragon chair, and then looked at the princes and officials who all bowed to Yuan Miaoyu. He suddenly felt like he was watching a TV drama in ancient costume.

He actually stood here and witnessed a queen enthroned with his own eyes.

Moreover, this queen was also his wife who had bridal chambers with him.

He frowned slightly, because he suddenly thought of a question - his wife became the queen, so what should he be the consort of himself now?
The princess's husband is the son-in-law.

What is the queen's husband?
He couldn't think of a suitable title for a while, because it seemed to be unprecedented. Even Wu Zetian did not remarry after she ascended the throne.

In the unofficial history, it was mentioned that after she ascended the throne, she had many male favorites, and the identity of those male favorites seemed to be called "Mian Shou"?
He felt that he should not be the head of the face.

Unless after Yuan Miaoyu ascended the throne, she would find many men to enrich her harem, but would she dare?
Li Zhongwu looked coldly at Yuan Miaoyu who was sitting on the dragon chair.

"Everyone is flat!"

Yuan Miaoyu raised her right hand slightly, and said something to everyone below, she felt Li Zhongwu's gaze, she subconsciously looked over, met Li Zhongwu's cold eyes, she was startled, wondering what kind of nerves he was having?She has just ascended the throne here, and all the ministers and the emperor's brothers surrendered to her, so why does he seem to be dissatisfied with her?

Blinking her eyes in doubt, she looked at the people below again, and then she suddenly said: "Why do you only worship me and not your son-in-law? Could it be that you don't have a son-in-law in your eyes?"

She thought that Li Zhongwu was psychologically unbalanced in this respect.
