Refusing to marry the king of broken sleeves
Chapter 229: The Heir to the Throne
The words of the imperial physician made everyone present stunned. Everyone had a look of disbelief on their faces, obviously unable to accept this shocking news.
Huangfuxuan even staggered, staggered and walked to the bedside, trembling hands, but didn't know how to put them.His lips trembled twice before he whispered, "What did you say? Father... Father died?!"
Anyone who reads it will think that he is too sad, and it is difficult to accept this fact, which is really unbearable.The imperial physician even let out a long sigh, lowered his head slightly, and said with difficulty: "The emperor... has passed away, minister, don't dare to talk nonsense."
There was a hint of joy in the depths of his eyes, but the expression on his face was extremely grief-stricken. Huangfuxuan suddenly fell down and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the emperor who had lost consciousness and breathless, he exhaled immediately: " How is it possible?! Father is obviously fine, how could he suddenly become like this?!"
As he spoke, he turned around at once, grabbed the imperial doctor by the collar, and said fiercely: "It's you! You quack doctor! If you dare to speak nonsense, this king will never spare you! Look again, look! See where father is uncomfortable! Hurry up!"
After finishing speaking, he threw off the imperial physician's collar, and the movement was so large that the imperial physician fell to the ground all of a sudden.
Not daring to be negligent in the slightest, the imperial physician hurriedly got up, trembling, and came in front of the emperor. With trembling fingers, he reached for the emperor's breath, but was so frightened that he retracted all of a sudden.
With his head slightly lowered, the imperial physician looked tremblingly, quietly glanced at Huangfu Xuan, and said bravely: "Second Prince, Your Majesty...really...died."
He was stunned for an instant, Huangfu Xuan's complexion was pale, and he stared at the emperor blankly, as if he had been cast with a body-holding spell, and remained motionless.After a while, with trembling lips, he said in a low voice, in disbelief: "How is it possible? How could the father just leave like this..."
"Second Prince..." The chief eunuch also hurried forward, with a shocked and sad expression on his face, "Second Prince, what should we do now?"
The sudden death of the emperor, it is impossible to hide this matter, right?Besides, how could the emperor die suddenly?This is also really puzzling.
Moreover, there were only the emperor and Huangfuxuan in the palace at that time, so it was indeed unavoidable for people to have some guesses.
Although his heart was full of doubts, the chief eunuch didn't dare to say a word, so he could only bury those speculations in his heart.He is just a slave, who has the right to ask these questions?Everyone walks.
After listening to the chief eunuch's questioning, Huangfuxuan gradually responded, but he still looked devastated.
I saw him slowly turning his head to look at the chief eunuch, his eyes were empty without any focus, his lips were slightly parted, and he said weakly: "Go to the hall and tell others."
The chief eunuch was stunned for a moment, but he didn't stop for a while. After responding, he quickly retreated.
In the hall, only Huangfuxuan was left, the trembling imperial doctor beside him, several little eunuchs who came in, and the emperor lying on the bed, not breathing.
There was silence, which was a little scary, and even a little weird.
After a while, Huangfuxuan turned his head to look at the other people, and said in a low voice, sadly: "You guys go and watch outside, I want to be alone with my father."
Seeing that he was so sad, and there was strong reluctance and unacceptability in their eyes, several people couldn't bear it, and wanted to persuade him, but they didn't dare to speak too much, so they had to accept orders and retreat go down.
After several people retreated, only Huangfuxuan and the emperor remained in the entire hall.
And just after the imperial physician and a few eunuchs left, Huangfuxuan, who was still heartbroken, immediately changed his expression, and put on a treacherous smile, which was particularly cold and cunning, with fierce eyes.
"I didn't expect that these few words would piss you off. If I had known, I would have told you the truth earlier." Speaking nonchalantly, Huangfu Xuan gave the emperor a sideways look, and snorted coldly. With a sound, it seemed extraordinarily disapproving.
Flicking up his sleeves, he stood up, with one hand behind his back, looked at the emperor, and after another cold snort, he almost gritted his teeth and said: "From now on, the country of Cheyuan is mine. Now! You can rest in peace, I will definitely make Cheyuan Kingdom the most powerful country! Instead of guarding this side of the world to live like you!"
He has already planned it long ago. When he becomes the emperor of Cheyuan Kingdom, he will conquer all the countries and bring all the countries under the rule of Cheyuan Kingdom. He will be the only emperor!
Now, he is about to ascend the throne of the emperor of the Cheyuan Kingdom, so the next thing he wants to conquer first is the Sky Kingdom.As long as the Sky Kingdom is conquered, the rest of the small countries are not worth mentioning at all.
He seems to have seen himself unifying the world and becoming the supreme king.
***
Let's say that the chief eunuch hurried all the way to the Jinluan Hall.As soon as he walked into the hall, he saw that all the officials were about to leave.
It had already been guessed that the emperor would definitely not be able to attend the early court today, so the officials waited for a while before preparing to leave the palace and go back to their respective mansions.
But when everyone was about to leave, they saw the head eunuch hurried in. Everyone was startled and immediately became a little nervous.
Walking straight to the top, next to the dragon chair, the chief eunuch turned his gaze to the people below, with a sad expression on his face, and opened his mouth, as if it was difficult to speak.
The people at the bottom also felt a sense of uneasiness. Although they were very puzzled and nervous, they did not dare to speak out. Everyone held their breath and looked at the chief eunuch with a serious expression.
After a stalemate for a while, the chief eunuch said with difficulty: "The emperor... is dead!"
One sentence, like a bomb, was dropped in this quiet hall and exploded in everyone's ears.
Everyone was startled by his words, they were all taken aback, they couldn't accept this fact for a moment, everyone had doubtful expressions on their faces, they questioned the chief eunuch with their eyes, asking him not to nonsense.
The first one to come back to his senses was Huangfu Yu. .
He strode forward, glared at the chief eunuch angrily, and cursed dissatisfiedly: "You slave, who gave you the guts! How dare you curse the emperor! Be careful that this king will deal with you for the emperor now!"
The chief eunuch was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Sixth Prince, how dare a slave curse the emperor? It's really...the emperor really..." As he spoke, he began to choke up, looking like he was about to cry.
Seeing that he didn't look like he was talking nonsense, and with such a serious matter, even if you lent him a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to speak nonsense.Realizing this, Huangfu Yu was immediately shocked and unable to react.
But it was only in an instant that he turned around abruptly, ran out of the palace quickly, and ran straight towards the emperor's bedroom.
The rest of the people also came back to their senses, and after being startled suddenly, they quickly followed behind Huangfu Yu.
Ling Yan and Ling Qinglian glanced at each other, their expressions were very serious, Ling Yan even pursed his lips with a dignified expression.
Thinking of the letter that Huangfuyi sent Caizhu to send him before entering the palace, he couldn't help clenching his fists.
The letter Huangfu Yi gave him said to let him enter the palace quickly, saying that something important might happen in the palace.It's just that what he didn't expect was that the emperor died, such a big event!
Everyone hurried to the emperor's bedroom, and immediately felt a deadly atmosphere, and everyone suddenly became serious and sad.
As soon as he stepped into the gate of the palace, Huangfu Yu's steps slowed down, as if he was afraid, and the steps under his feet became more and more heavy, making it difficult for him to walk.
Too many things have happened recently, so much that he no longer wants to face it.Although he has always disliked fighting for power and profit, and never thought of harming anyone, it doesn't mean that he knows nothing, and he doesn't know anything.
Ever since Huangfuyan and Huangfuxi were imprisoned/imprisoned on Luoyan Island, he knew that the darkness that he had been ignoring on purpose had finally surfaced gradually and began to be presumptuous.
Today, just as he was about to leave the mansion and enter the palace, he saw a young servant who hurried over to look for him.He knew that boy, he was from the Fourth Prince's Mansion.If Huangfu Yi wanted to find him, he would almost always send this young man to pass on the message.
From the mouth of the servant boy, he learned that Huangfu Yi was missing, even Ye Yuan was missing, and he naturally knew about Ling Ruoyao's disappearance.
For this reason, he was extremely shocked, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to order someone to find him quickly, even if he turned the entire capital over, he had to find him.
With heavy steps, he finally walked into the hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, he heard a cry full of sadness and reluctance: "Father...Father, how could you just leave like this? How could you just leave your son like this!?"
Turning his head to look, what he saw was Huangfuxuan kneeling in front of the bed, throwing himself on the emperor's body, weeping heartbroken, tears streaming down his face, his shoulders shaking non-stop.
That scene really smelled the tears of the sad witnesses.
Looking at the scene in front of him expressionlessly, Huangfu Yu only felt that his brain had gone blank, and even his heart had lost the slightest feeling. Everything around him seemed to have nothing to do with him.
In his eyes, only the emperor lying motionless on the bed remained.
His father left just like that, he didn't even see his father's last side, and he didn't even know how he died.
With a stiff body, he walked mechanically, and slowly came to the bed, looked down at the emperor, trembling lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "Second brother, what's going on? Father...Father how come……"
Hearing the sound, Huangfuxuan stopped crying, but his shoulders were still shaking slightly. After a while, he raised his head, but his eyes were blurred with tears: "Lao Liu, father, he..." As he spoke, he turned his eyes again Turning to the emperor, "I don't know why the father left just like that. It's obviously getting better, but why..."
In his tone, there was deep sadness and reluctance, as well as deep self-blame, as if he was blaming himself for not taking good care of him.
Kneeling powerlessly in front of the bed, Huangfu Yu looked at the emperor with vacant eyes, gradually raised his hand, held his hand that had started to become cold, and said with a choked voice, "Father, how can you just say leave?" Go? How can you leave us alone? What should we do when you are gone?"
"The sixth..." Huangfu Xuan turned his head and looked at Huangfu Yu, but he didn't know what to say, so he simply didn't speak, and the two of them just looked at the emperor in silence.
All the officials who came up behind also rushed into the palace together, and all the concubines and concubines from the harem also followed. For a moment, the originally spacious palace seemed extremely crowded.
Everyone also saw the emperor who had already lost his breath at a glance. They were startled, but they all knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to the emperor.
Everyone seemed very sad and unacceptable, and the atmosphere seemed very gloomy and depressing.The concubines also began to cry softly, and for a while, there was only a humming sound in the whole room.
After a while, Ling Yan suddenly turned his head, looked at the chief eunuch kneeling beside him, and asked in a cold voice: "Eunuch, what's going on? Why did the emperor suddenly..."
The chief eunuch looked up at him, then turned his gaze to Huangfuxuan who was kneeling beside the bed, and saw that he was not looking at him, so he withdrew his gaze, looked at Ling Yan, hesitated and said: "The servant is not looking at him either. Clearly. At that time, after the second prince entered the palace, the servant went down to do things, as for what happened, the servant is not clear, only know that the second prince sent someone to teach the imperial physician later."
Hearing the chief eunuch's reply, Huangfuxuan turned back to look at Ling Yan, with a sad look on his handsome face, took a deep breath, and tried hard to keep his emotions calm.
"The king just said that the king just came to visit the father and pay his respects to the father. But seeing that the father had not woken up, he sat aside and waited for the father to wake up, and did not bother the father. But who knows However, the father suddenly coughed violently. The situation was very serious. He coughed and coughed, and he coughed up blood. The king was taken aback, and hurriedly ordered someone to invite the imperial physician. The next thing was what the father-in-law said That's it."
Ling Yan frowned slightly, with an extraordinarily serious expression.Staring at Huangfu Xuan, he said in a deep voice: "Forgive me for taking the liberty, but is there anyone else who can testify for the Second Prince?"
After hearing his questioning, Huangfuxuan was not annoyed, and explained patiently: "At that time, there were only me and my father in the palace, and there was no third person. It is normal for the Prime Minister to be suspicious. But I would like to ask the Prime Minister My lord, how could this king do something to my father? This is my father!"
Hearing his words, Ling Yan suddenly felt disgusted, his brows were further frowned, and his face became more and more gloomy.But because there is no definite evidence, even if he doubts in his heart, he can't testify against Huangfuxuan.
So, he had to force himself to hold his breath.
"Father." Ling Qinglian leaned closer to him and whispered, "What should we do?"
Just glanced at him lightly, Ling Yan also said in a low voice: "Wait and see."
Huangfu Yi's letter to him only said to let him enter the palace, but did not tell him what he should do.And the current situation is not something he has the ability to control.
For the present plan, we can only wait and see what happens, and see what Huangfu Xuan wants to do next.
In the midst of howling and crying, a loud voice suddenly sounded, covering all the voices in an instant: "Now that the emperor has passed away, the most important thing is to find someone to preside over the overall situation! The country cannot live without a day. Lord!"
Everyone searched for their reputation, and what they saw was a thin, but shrewd official, looking at them reverently, as if expecting everyone's response.
After being taken aback for a while, several officials echoed and said: "It makes sense. A country cannot live without an owner, and most importantly, someone needs to preside over the emperor's affairs."
"Didn't the emperor choose the second prince as the crown prince before?" Another voice rang out, "Since the second prince is the best candidate for the crown prince, now that the emperor has passed away, it should be the crown prince who takes over the throne. This presides over the overall situation. Naturally, the Second Prince should preside over it!"
Looking at these exceptionally lively people, Ling Yan couldn't help clenching his fists, clenching his teeth, staring at those people with sharp eyes, thinking, they are discussing about electing a new emperor before the emperor's bones are cold. Isn't it outrageous?
"Did you forget something?" Suddenly, Huangfu Yu, who had been staring at the emperor without making a sound, turned his head, glanced at those people sharply, and said in a low tone, "Without a jade pendant, even a prince, It seems that he can't inherit the throne, right?"
As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Huangfuxuan next to him, with sharp eyes, "Second Brother, what do you think?"
Huangfuxuan was stunned secretly, as if he did not expect that Huangfu Yu would oppose him at this time, he always thought that Huangfu Yu had no interest in the throne, it seems that he underestimated him.
Without showing any timidity, Huangfuxuan slightly hooked his lips and smiled imperceptibly, but took out the jade pendant from his bosom, and waved it in front of everyone: "Lao Liu, you said, Is it this jade pendant?"
Huangfu Yu froze for a moment, looked at him in surprise, and subconsciously asked, "Why do you have the jade pendant?"
"Before, my father told me to find the jade pendant as soon as possible. Only in this way can I be convinced and truly qualified to inherit the throne. Since it was my father's order, how can I disappoint my father?"
His eyes turned cold, Huangfu Yu bit his lips tightly, and did not speak again, he did not expect that he was the one who found the jade pendant.
"Now that the Second Prince has a jade pendant, he is naturally the best candidate for the heir to the throne. Presumably, everyone has no objection?" The thin but shrewd official asked again.
Immediately afterwards, the few officials just now quickly echoed.
However, when the matter was about to become a foregone conclusion, a tall figure suddenly walked in from outside the hall, accompanied by a deep and magnetic voice: "If so, does this king have any objections?"
Huangfuxuan even staggered, staggered and walked to the bedside, trembling hands, but didn't know how to put them.His lips trembled twice before he whispered, "What did you say? Father... Father died?!"
Anyone who reads it will think that he is too sad, and it is difficult to accept this fact, which is really unbearable.The imperial physician even let out a long sigh, lowered his head slightly, and said with difficulty: "The emperor... has passed away, minister, don't dare to talk nonsense."

"Before, my father told me to find the jade pendant as soon as possible. Only in this way can I be convinced and truly qualified to inherit the throne. Since it was my father's order, how can I disappoint my father?"
His eyes turned cold, Huangfu Yu bit his lips tightly, and did not speak again, he did not expect that he was the one who found the jade pendant.
"Now that the Second Prince has a jade pendant, he is naturally the best candidate for the heir to the throne. Presumably, everyone has no objection?" The thin but shrewd official asked again.
Immediately afterwards, the few officials just now quickly echoed.
However, when the matter was about to become a foregone conclusion, a tall figure suddenly walked in from outside the hall, accompanied by a deep and magnetic voice: "If so, does this king have any objections?"
