Chapter 348 The Emperor Dies
The Emperor of Dali is dead!

This is the most shocking news since the Empress of Jing Kingdom came to the throne. The whole country was shocked overnight!

Not only because of the grim situation in the Li country at this moment, the death of the emperor undoubtedly made the country even worse. What was even more shocking was the sudden death of the emperor, which caught everyone off guard.

The emperor had contracted the epidemic before, and the dragon's body was in danger. This is a fact known throughout the country, but just a few days ago, there was news in the palace that the emperor's condition had stabilized, and everyone just sent it down in one breath. The result was another bad news.

What is even more unacceptable is that the emperor did not leave any will before his death, so who will succeed to the throne has become a tricky matter.

Nangong Yun and the two Dukes blocked the news at the first time, preventing the news of the emperor's death from spreading, which would be detrimental to the war, but in the end, the news was leaked by someone with a heart, and it soon spread throughout the world.

-

Du Yunlie had already stayed in the tent for a whole day and night, neither eating nor drinking, and ignoring anyone who called him.

All of a sudden, the entire army lost its backbone, and was helpless in the face of the still severe battle situation and the enemy's frequent provocations.

After receiving the sad news of the emperor's death from central Beijing, Du Yunlie entered his camp without saying a word, ordered no one to come in and disturb him, and even told the whole army to camp in place and stand by. No matter how the country provokes and instigates, it will not move, and those who violate it will be killed without mercy.

Du Yunlie's prestige in the army has always been high, not a single soldier dared to disobey his orders, and obeyed obediently.

At this moment, Du Yunlie shrank in the corner, buried his head deeply in his knees, and cried like a child.

But he didn't dare to cry loudly, he couldn't show the slightest weakness in front of the whole army when the enemy was in front of him, otherwise the army's morale would be broken and the country of Yan could take advantage of it, and the battle would be lost.

The emperor passed away, and the elder brother left, so he left him so unexpectedly, he didn't even see the elder brother for the last time.

The elder brother who smiled and cursed at him, who doted on him in every possible way, and who taught him earnestly, will never come back...

Eldest brother is gone, Li Guo's huge burden, the burden of the whole world has been entrusted to him, how should he bear it?
How much Du Yunlie wanted to go home and have a look, even if he could see him for the last time, kowtow to him, but he couldn't.

The war is over, why go home?
He can't fall, at least not now.

Because there are tens of thousands of soldiers outside waiting for him to deliver orders, waiting for him to take them back to their hometown and defend their homeland.

What Du Yunlie was more worried about was Yun'er's safety in the capital. After the emperor's brother left, a lot of mess was piled on her. Can she handle it?

Du Yunlie wiped away his tears and showed a firm face. No matter what, the war can no longer continue, and it must be settled quickly.

But how can Yan Guo take the initiative to retreat?

Du Yunlie suddenly remembered a pouch that Yun'er gave him before he left. She said that there was a bag of tricks written in her own handwriting, and she asked him to open it at a critical moment. Thinking of this, Du Yunlie didn't care much, and quickly took out the pouch from his cuff.

The pouch was exquisite and small, with only a single pear flower embroidered on it. After opening it, there was indeed a folded note.

Du Yunlie stretched out the note, and recognized Nangong Yun's firm handwriting at a glance, but Du Yunlie's face changed drastically after a few words.

"Brother Lie, sometimes war doesn't necessarily happen on the battlefield. Outside the battlefield, the enemy can also be defeated. To capture the thief, you must first capture the king. When the two armies are at war, you need to find out the commander's temperament before you can know his battle. Method. King Xuanwu of Yan is treacherous, and his biggest weakness is suspicion."

Du Yunlie suddenly became enlightened as if enlightened, Yun'er's words really hit the point.

He continued to look down and saw a line of small words at the bottom of the note, "Brother Lie, we fight not for bloodshed, but for peace. If sacrificing a few people can get the safety of the majority, why not do it ?”

Du Yunlie supported the wall and got up from the ground, wiped his face, "Come here!"

The deputy general stationed outside the camp could be considered to have heard the voice of the prince, and couldn't help being overjoyed, "My lord?"

Du Yunlie's resolute voice came from the tent: "Let the two generals Zheng Wei and Pang Hu come and see me."

"Yes." The lieutenant-general got the order and went to deliver the order.

Du Yunlie looked at the purse in his hand, held it tightly in his palm, and said silently: "Yun'er, hold on for a while, Brother Lie will go back to save you right away."

-

Li Guo Chaotang is now a mess.

Above the court, civil and military officials are surging, and everyone is accusing Nan Gongyun, the concubine of the supervisor.

Nangong Yun stood quietly on the hall, looking coldly at Queen Nangong Die who was sitting beside us weeping and weeping.

"When I went to see the emperor a few days ago, he was fine. Who would have thought that in just one night, the emperor... the emperor would pass away... When the emperor was dying, only the princess was by his side, No one knows exactly what happened, why the emperor passed away suddenly without leaving a last word, my lords, you have to help me judge..."

Your Highness, all the officials were whispering to each other, arguing and arguing into a pot of porridge, Ning Guogong and Qi Guogong watched quietly, their faces were sombre, and they didn't say a word.

After a while, Cai Quanhai, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, took the lead in launching the attack, glaring at Nangong Yun, his face filled with righteous indignation, "Dare to ask the concubine, the world knows that you are the descendant of the genius doctor Bai Bai, and I believe that your medical skills are also the best in the world, so why can't you save me?" emperor?"

Nangong Yun said lightly: "Lord Cai is just joking. Doctors heal others but not themselves. Healing a disease is not a cure. Malaria is a plague. It is as dangerous as smallpox. It is the most difficult disease to control in the world. If I have that ability, the people in the capital will The epidemic has long been resolved."

"According to what you said, the sudden death of the emperor has nothing to do with you?" the servant of the official department was aggressive.

Nangong Yun said nothing, knowing that he was digging a hole and waiting for her to jump, no matter if she answered yes or no, he would say a lot of words to criticize her, embarrass her in front of the officials, and make her unable to step down.

Ning Guogong said in a timely manner: "Okay, okay, God's will is inevitable, now it's not about who is responsible for the emperor's death, but to quickly draw up a candidate for the new emperor. The country cannot live without a king. I don't know what my colleagues have Goodbye?"

The minister of rites took a step forward: "The throne of my Dali country has always been inherited by the father after his death. Before the emperor passed away, a crown prince was installed, and the crown prince did not do anything out of order during his reign. Naturally, the throne should be given to the crown prince." Succession."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice said: "But the crown prince is still young, and the current situation is turbulent. I'm afraid it will be difficult to take on the big job. In my opinion, Qi Wangye is talented and capable. He has assisted the emperor for many years. He is the most suitable candidate for the emperor. .”

Hundreds of officials scrambled to agree, some supported the crown prince, some supported King Qi, and there were different opinions.
