Star Sea Hunter

Tianhuaxing, it was late at night.

Martial law has been fully enforced in the imperial palace, and the atmosphere is solemn and solemn, so oppressive that it is hard to breathe!

Outside the emperor's bedroom, there were heavy guards and a crowd of ministers, crowding the Nuoda courtyard outside the palace gate.

In the side hall of the outer room, Chen Yinjie, the prime minister of the empire, Gu Longsi, the minister of military affairs, Wu Yankong, the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards, and more than a dozen important officials of the empire were present.

At this time, the group of big figures standing at the peak of the empire's power pyramid all looked gloomy and said nothing.

Gu Longsi looked at the inner hall in the distance, and then at the people around him, feeling extremely heavy.

I am also a veteran of several dynasties. The first emperor was in the prime of life and high-spirited, but he was seriously ill for no apparent reason. Fortunately, the crown prince Fang Xu was an adult at that time, and his talents and wrists were above the standard of a qualified monarch. There was also a group of important officials who worked together , This enabled the smooth transition of power in the empire, and the political situation was not turbulent.

How similar is the situation today to what it was then?

It's just that the empire is experiencing troubled times, and if it is not careful, there will be chaos.The new emperor has dissatisfied many conservative forces because of his bloodline!In addition, since he is not in the imperial capital at the moment, it is hard to say whether the power can be handed over smoothly!

If some people in the clan take the opportunity to attack and covet the artifact!As the number one figure in the military, how should I choose?

The queen and a group of concubines were waiting inside, passing through a screen, and on the imperial bed was Fang Xu, who had fallen into a semi-comatose state.

Director Yan stood in front of the bed, looking coldly at the master of the harem with deep eyes.

That day, when Fang Xu was about to take a break after finishing his official duties, he felt unwell!

Having witnessed his father's accident, he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem!I am a high-level power user, my physique is far superior to that of ordinary people, and I also take meticulous care of my daily diet and daily life. Why do problems arise out of nowhere?

Reminiscent of Chu Jun's disappearance during this period of time, coupled with some confidential information in his hands, he has already vaguely guessed some clues!

The emperor was also a decisive figure. Immediately summoned Director Yan and several confidants, announced his decision to pass on the throne, and at the same time ordered martial law in the imperial capital, and a thorough investigation inside and outside the imperial palace.

Things came to light soon, and many secret strongholds of the Yanwei Tribal Alliance in the imperial capital were detected and wiped out!The high-status Luftiero saw that he couldn't do anything, and planned to sneak out of the palace to avoid the limelight, but was blocked by several royal family priests, and he was so stubborn that he simply came to an end. This is the key clue. break!

Director Yan ordered to mobilize all the resources available to the royal family. Several demigod-level pharmacists tried their best, but failed to find a solution to the toxins in the emperor's body. They could only slightly suppress and relieve them.That's it for now!

Seeing that His Majesty's situation is getting worse and worse, Fang Yuqing has disappeared, what should I do?

The patriarchs of the six great families are already in contact with the conservatives in the clan. It is unknown what their plans are!

Once His Majesty can't hold on anymore and leaves the world, those aristocratic families take advantage of the situation to rise up, and the empire will immediately fall into chaos!Even torn apart!

She looked at the pale and faintly breathed Fang Xu, and then at the group of concubines outside, especially Zhu Zhaoyuan who looked dull.It's just a pain in my heart for no reason!

This emperor was brought up by her single-handedly. She was born less than one year old, and her mother and concubine died in the strife of the palace. She was the one who guarded him all the time. Its an adult!

Later, he made many plans to help him gain the attention of the first emperor and become the prince, so that he succeeded in ascending to the throne of God!It can be said that she took care of the emperor as her own child!He is all her pride and achievement!

After Fang Xu's ascension to the throne, he had a lot of trust in this mother-in-law and mentor, the commander of the palace guards, and the head of the palace. Whenever there were major events, she would be asked to participate and give advice!It can be said that Fang Xuting has been able to maintain a stable position and firmly control the power of the empire for so many years, and she, Yan Mengbing, has contributed a lot!

It's a pity that I was careless for a moment, and Xiaoxiao's generation still had an opportunity to take advantage of it!Years of painstaking efforts were ruined, so how could she not feel pain in her heart?

This is fate!

Now, what I can do is to make His Majesty's last wish come true and help the new emperor take over the power smoothly!

As long as I still have breath, I will never let the group of people outside mess around!Manager Yan stroked his waist calmly, secretly making up his mind.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the palace gate.

"What's going on?" She raised her eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.

Several palace guards rushed out immediately, and then turned back.

"His Royal Highness... No, it's Her Majesty the Queen who is back!" Someone shouted outside.

Director Yan's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, "Let Your Majesty come in quickly!"

The palace door opened, and Fang Yuqing, who looked anxious, rushed in like a whirlwind!Immediately, among the group of big figures in the outer hall, a few guys had an imperceptible sense of loss in their eyes.

The queen's face was pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

Fang Yuqing didn't have time to pay attention to them at the moment, and went into the inner hall alone.

"Your Majesty, you are back!" Director Yan said with relief.

"What's the matter, father?" Fang Yuqing asked anxiously.

She shook her head: "Go and have a last word with him!"

Fang Xu, who was in a coma, heard the movement around him in a daze, and slowly opened his eyes, just in time to see his daughter's anxious eyes.

"Son, you... are you back?" The corners of his mouth moved, and he said with some difficulty.

Looking at her father's sick face, Fang Yuqing couldn't help feeling sad, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Father, my daughter is unfilial! You have suffered!"

Fang Xu smiled weakly and said, "It's good that you're back! I... I've left this burden to you!"

"Father, what's going on?" Seeing that his breath was getting weaker and weaker, Fang Yuqing hurriedly grabbed his hand and asked.

"Some things can't be changed by manpower... Actually, I'm also to blame..." Fang Xu said slowly.

Fang Yuqing looked suspiciously at Manager Yan at the side, she seemed to understand a little bit, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you mean..."

"It's useless to say these things now!" Fang Xu sighed, "My child, I can't do it... I will ask you one thing when I leave, treat your brothers and sisters well! Even...don't hurt them unless it is absolutely necessary. ..."

"...Yes, my son remembered it!" Although Fang Yuqing was puzzled, she still agreed.

"You went out for a walk this time, are you going to see him?" Fang Xu asked again.

"...Yes!" She replied a little apprehensively.

"He is a good boy, maybe I... really shouldn't treat him like this... After a while, you can call him back! It's a pity that I won't be able to see your wedding..."

"Father..." Fang Yuqing cried bitterly, and the only bit of resentment in her heart disappeared.

Fang Xuling only felt that his body was slowly becoming cold, and bursts of uncontrollable tiredness hit him, and he knew that he was going to die soon!

He barely condensed his mind that was about to slacken, and said to President Yan: "Let them all come in!"

Manager Yan nodded, waved his hand, and a palace guard walked out immediately.

Soon, more than ten important officials of the empire gathered in front of the bed.

A frightening coldness suddenly appeared in Fang Xu's eyes, staring at these veterans who had followed him for many years, he said: "You all know my decision! After I go, you must do your best to assist the new emperor and stabilize the situation. It's like helping me! Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Imperial Army will firmly uphold the authority of Her Majesty the Empress! Protect the peace of the Empire!" Gu Longsi immediately said.

Chen Yinjie hesitated for a while, looked at Fang Xu's eyes, and said quickly: "The minister and the imperial cabinet will also swear to be loyal to the Queen! Your Majesty, just rest assured!"

The other dozen or so ministers had no choice but to express their opinions one by one no matter what thoughts they had in their hearts at this time.

"That's good!" Fang Xu nodded in satisfaction.

"Father, do you have anything else to say?" Fang Yuqing asked again.

"...Zhen!" Fang Xu stretched out his tightly clenched right hand tremblingly. Inside was a delicate necklace, and on the heart-shaped pendant was a beautiful image of a young girl, who was seven to eight points similar to Fang Yuqing.

"I just want to see your mother again...it's a pity..." He murmured while staring at the woman's image.

Manager Yan hesitated, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Suddenly, his hand hangs down feebly, the expression in his eyes gradually dims, and his life stagnates!

"Father..."

Sorrows erupted in the hall!

In the end, it was Director Yan who calmed down first, and ordered loudly: "My lords, now that Your Majesty has passed away, the empire cannot be left without a master for a day. The most important thing now is to let Her Majesty officially ascend the throne, summon all the ministers, and establish orthodox!"

This statement is reasonable, and no one can find a thorn in it.

At that moment, black gauze was hung inside and outside the imperial palace, all the officials changed their clothes, and went to the Juntian Hall of the imperial palace to pay homage to the new emperor!

After many cumbersome etiquette procedures have been completed one by one, it is already bright.

Fang Yuqing, who was full of filial piety, sat on the throne in the middle of the hall under the guidance of Manager Yan.

Under the jade steps, all the ministers have already taken their positions. No matter what strange thoughts they have in their hearts, the overall situation has been settled at this time, and there is no chance to cackle together again!

Looking at the ministers and workers paying respects below, Fang Yuqing looked calm, and began to perform her duties meticulously according to the scheduled procedures!

Of course, no one knew what was going on in the heart of the young empress!Even Manager Yan, who was standing beside her, couldn't see through her thoughts.

Wells, a well-known political observer in Xinghai commented on this: Compared with the change of power in the Gnasrock Empire more than a month ago, the power transfer of the Shuofeng Empire is obviously smoother!Although there was a crisis for a while, but because of the decisive decision of the first emperor, the empress rushed back in time, and finally there was no danger!Didn't cause much turmoil!

This huge empire has just expanded its land area by more than two hundred star fields!What will change under this young empress?Will she continue the national policy of her father's generation, or will she make some changes according to her own preferences?Very exciting!
