Chapter 1234 The Battle for the Throne
"No, it's different!" As a couple, she naturally recognized her husband's face.

It looks similar, but it's not him.

correct.

She remembered that once, she heard the former crown prince say that he had a shadow, and that shadow would do some dangerous things instead of him.

Thinking about it, Xuan Jian was that shadow.

It's a pity that this shadow has not been used after training, and he died just like that.

As a shadow, Xuan Jian knew that the fate of a shadow must die before his master. For this, he has always been very guilty. Over the years, he has been even more loyal to Princess Duan.

Princess Duan sighed softly, "Give him a proper burial."

A middle-aged man with the appearance of a housekeeper came in a hurry, and said to Princess Duan, "Princess, the imperial physician in the palace found out that the emperor died of poisoning, this person who poisoned...?"

Duan Wangfei narrowed her eyes and said: "Let them arrest Zhao Li and wait for the funeral to interrogate."

"Eunuch Zhao?"

The housekeeper nodded hurriedly, and went down to work.

After a while, another nanny from the palace came in a hurry, holding a box tightly wrapped in her hand.

"Princess, the servants found this when they were cleaning the emperor's bedroom."

Princess Duan took a look at it, sneered immediately, and put the thing in the brazier and burned it to ashes.

This is the imperial decree, the one that Mo Yanbai did not answer, which stated clearly that the second prince should be made the crown prince.

If this thing gets out, her son's steadfast throne will be in trouble. Fortunately, this imperial decree has been discovered, and there will never be a chance to send it out.

"Gui Mama, you've done a good job, and there's a big reward for you."

Princess Duan was very generous, and immediately gave her a box of gold and a land deed.

Princess Duan said: "This is Zhuangzi, the dowry of my natal family when I got married. It's not far from the capital. It's a good place. You're not too young. Instead of staying in the palace and waiting to die, you might as well go to Zhuangzi and hire a few servants to make a living." Serving the elderly."

The nanny was overwhelmed with surprise, knelt down to Princess Duan, and thanked her repeatedly.

Princess Duan smiled and said: "You have worked for this palace for many years, you deserve it. This palace has always been very generous to loyal people. As for the servants, the little eunuchs and maids in the palace, you can choose whatever you want. Of course, you You can also buy a few servants yourself."

Gui Momo said happily: "Princess, this servant has a niece who is currently working in the palace of Concubine Li. When entering the palace, her parents adopted her under the name of servant for the sake of taking care of her. She is now It can also be regarded as the daughter of the servant, and the servant wants to take her out of the palace if she doesn't want to take her with her."

Princess Duan smiled and said, "Yes."

The emperor's funeral was still beautiful, no one knew the secret between them, but after the funeral, the ministers pointed out that the country should not live without a king, and the new king would have to examine those who poisoned the previous emperor.

Therefore, the second prince, who was only 14 years old, was elected.

"The crown prince and the emperor went back one after another. Among the two princes, the young prince is too young to speak clearly, so naturally he is not considered. I think we should elect the second prince to be the new emperor."

After An Ruyi's death, another little prince's mother, Concubine Li, controlled the harem, and she had some influence.

The emperor died suddenly without leaving a will, so she naturally wanted to take a share and fight for the throne.

A minister who was ordered by Concubine Li stood up and said: "The second prince has been named King of Anzhou, the emperor passed away, and the funeral has been held. He should return to his fief Anzhou."
