The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 284 Announcement of the Empress and the past events of the year

Yangling County is not far from Chang'an.

Chen Xu sat in the middle hall, read the letter in his heart, and then burned it to ashes on an oil lamp.

His expression was a little gloomy, his face twitched slightly, and his eyes slowly closed.

"Amei...you are going to be doomed!"

In the letter, Chen Ajiao had confessed that her plan to kill Weining had failed, so she conspired with her brother to assassinate Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Although Chen Xu came to Yangling early and had already arranged everything and trained a number of killers, Zhu Anshi was the strongest among them.

But when things got to this point, he was still a little weak.

Assassinating Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is not a trivial matter. If it succeeds, everyone will be happy.

Although Chen Ajiao said in the letter that as long as things succeed, the Confucian forces can push Liu Huan to the throne.

But is it really that easy to assassinate Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?

There is still Wei Qing in Chang'an, as well as Jianzhangying and Yulin.

If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could not be killed, the Chen family would never be able to survive again!

But now he has no way out. If he doesn't agree to Chen Ajiao, according to Amei's crazy temperament, she may find a way to assassinate Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, even if she knows that she will definitely die.

Then everyone in the Chen family will still be buried with her.

Both sides are facing death, Chen Xu only has a chance to win now.

If he succeeds, everyone will be happy, and he will become the number one noble in the Han Dynasty, with power reaching the sky and supreme.

If you fail, kill the entire clan!

There was no way back for him.

After a long time, Chen Xu suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Go and call Master Zhu!"

"Here!"

……

Chang'an, Weiyang Palace.

Harem Jiaofang Hall.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was sitting on his desk, cooking tea, and Wei Zifu was waiting on him.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty told an old story. In fact, Wei Zifu already knew everything without her having to tell him, but Wei Zifu still cooperated with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to show his surprise and shock.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty slowly told Wei Zifu about the night at Princess Pingyang's Mansion in Baling County.

He glanced at Wei Zifu and then said slowly: "It turns out that it was not you who I favored you that night."

"When I asked you where the jade pendant was, you said you didn't know, so I didn't take it seriously."

"It turns out that when you said you didn't know, you didn't know about the jade pendant."

Wei Zifu said softly: "Your Majesty... what about Wei Ning?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty nodded deeply: "Well, he is your third sister's child, and he is also mine!"

"Zifu, I have been testing him for a long time. Many people in the court should have guessed it."

"I haven't announced it in the past two years, but I'm just paving the way for him to make everything less abrupt and allow all the senses to gradually accept this reality."

"Now that the time and conditions are ripe, and he has made such a great contribution to Wuwei, I plan to canonize your third sister as the late queen first, and then make you the queen..."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stood up slowly and said: "When I come back from the court meeting, I will come to drink tea. You can cook it first."

Looking at the leaving figure of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Zifu smiled slightly.

In fact, we all know it, Zhong Qing told me a long time ago. It's just that I didn't tell you. You don't have to worry so much. He is a member of our Wei family. If you want to make him a national leader, I will not object.

Since my son is still young and doesn't understand so much, he won't be lost.

……

Qilin Hall, the great court meeting.

After Wuwei was recaptured, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty no longer had any worries.

At today's court meeting, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty summoned all officials, and the news of an explosion shook the entire hall.

Only Wei Qing breathed a long sigh of relief.

He guessed that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would announce the news after Weining left.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty announced the identity of Wei Ning as his eldest son in front of all the ministers, and announced what happened in Ba Ling that year.

At the same time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in front of all the ministers and officials, first consecrated Wei Pingjun as the queen. This step was to confirm the identity of Wei Ning's eldest son. Only in this way could he be qualified to inherit the position of crown prince.

Secondly, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once again announced the canonization of Wei Zifu as the Empress of the Han Dynasty, citing the early death of Wei Pingjun.

Everyone understood that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did this just to correct Weining's identity.

The hall was so quiet that it was suffocating.

Dongfang Shuo, Sang Hongyang and others were quite calm. They already knew what was going on, so there was no need to be so surprised.

As for the others, their jaws almost dropped in shock!

A group of Confucian officials fiercely opposed the idea of ​​two queens in one sect, which was inconsistent with etiquette and law. There was no such precedent.

Of course, the reason why they opposed it was because if the matter was settled, Liu Huan would have no reason to become the crown prince!

They have been silently supporting Liu Huan and praying for Liu Huan to ascend the throne as soon as possible. Now that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has said this, it is tantamount to extinguishing all their hopes!

At the same time, they only understood at this moment why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made Liu Huan king.

It turns out that everything was done to remove obstacles for Weining!

What a good father! But isn’t Liu Huan your son?

However, the voices of the Confucian group have no effect. The most they can argue from the perspective of etiquette and law is that they can only say that one discipline has two queens, and one court and two queens are inconsistent with etiquette and law.

But it’s not like this kind of thing has never happened before. Didn’t Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty have one dynasty and two queens?

To take a step back, you Confucianists were able to successfully come to power because of the support of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. How could you have so many voices before?

There are lessons from previous dynasties, and everything Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did can be traced back to ancient times. The truth that Confucianists say is simply untenable.

Today's sudden news was so shocking that when the officials left the court, their heads were buzzing and they were still a little unable to react.

Why is Weining the emperor's eldest son?

Why was Wei Pingjun banned?

This news even made them ignore the fact that Wei Zifu was officially canonized as the Queen of the Han Dynasty.

Sang Hongyang glanced at Dongfang Shuo, with a hint of smile in his eyes, and said, "Dongfang, how are you?"

Dongfang Shuo sighed: "I was just guessing before, but actually hearing these things from His Majesty's mouth is still a bit shocking."

Dong Zhongshu stood behind him and suddenly reacted, saying: "You have known this for a long time?"

Dongfang Shuo also Sang Hongyang shook his head and said: "It was just speculation before. I dare not say anything without evidence."

"How did you guess it?" Dong Zhongshu asked doubtfully.

Sang Hongyang raised his thumb and said to Dongfang Shuo, "Brother Dongfang risked his life to try it out."

Dong Zhongshu: "Huh?"

"He asked His Majesty to marry the princess to the Marquis of Zhenbei."

Dong Zhongshu: "..."

He glanced at Dongfang Shuo in shock. Although he didn't say anything, his expression said everything. You Dongfang Shuo is really a warrior. You are not afraid of death at all!

It’s so heartbreaking!

Outside the Qilin Hall, the officials of the San Dynasty still looked a little confused, and they walked with dissatisfied faces full of thoughts. It was obvious that they had not yet digested the explosive news!
