Princess Phoenix

Chapter 123

This is the first early court after Cang Hongpo's death. It is stipulated that all princes and ministers must be present. At that time, almost everyone was present, even Brother Long Yin and Gong Xinxiao participated. Several princes and guests prepared chair.Do it in front of the hall near the dragon chair.Except for one person, Zhongzhou Wang Canghong Mingyue, when everyone was almost assembled, an old man with gray hair and beard entered the hall respectfully, claiming that he was the steward of Zhongzhou Befu. The prince suddenly fell ill last night and could not come today.Qiyue naturally followed, and she couldn't help wondering whether Canghong Mingyue was really ill or didn't come on purpose. It seemed that he didn't have the slightest covetousness for the position of Emperor of the Realm.

In ordinary times, everyone would naturally care about it, and even visiting together is nine out of ten, but today everyone just agreed with a few polite words, and then the whole hall began to fall into silence. Under Canghong Haotian's signal, a second-rank official has already stepped forward, "The country cannot be without a master for a day, the former emperor has gone, we know that everyone is still in grief, but at this time, please return The prince puts the grief aside first, the state affairs are as big as the sky, so let's ascend the throne today."

Then some officials hurriedly followed suit, even saying that if Canghong Haotian did not agree to be enthroned today, I would be sorry for the Emperor Jing who had just gone first, for the ministers who were eagerly looking forward to him in the ruling and opposition parties, and for the people of Li who had been expected of him .

In such an atmosphere, some originally neutral people were a bit untenable, and even the envoys from other countries standing behind the courtiers couldn't help but put on playful smiles, although Canghong Haotian didn't show any gaffes. The expression, but Ye Ye's face was flushed, obviously excited.

At this moment, a person in the hall snorted coldly. Although the voice was not loud, it was mixed with internal force, which made everyone shut up in shock. A general walked out from the crowd, "It is true that the country cannot There is no master in the day, but Emperor Jing has seven sons. We Cang Hong don’t have the rule of standing up for the elders and not the younger ones. Naturally, the virtuous live there. Among the many princes, Wentao and Wulue have made great achievements and made great military exploits. Who can beat the Fourth Prince, the Fourth Prince is well-deserved for the position of Emperor of the Realm!" He said, looking fiercely at the second-rank official who spoke first.

Then, a large number of officials followed suit, and the two sides refused to give in to each other, each said their own things, and almost quarreled in the court hall, and the whole hall became a mess for a while.

Qiyue looked at Cang Hong Xiaoran, as if she hadn't heard what everyone said, and was different from Huang Tianwang's nervousness. She rested her head on one hand, as if she was in her own back garden elegantly and leisurely. Seeing him like this , Qiyue is a little relieved, it seems that he should have confidence.

The two parties were almost arguing, and Qiyue saw that Ji Lao stood up and said, "Everyone be quiet!" It can be seen that although these people were arguing happily on the surface, none of them lost their minds. As soon as Ji Lao finished speaking, everyone stopped talking at the same time. The status of this eternal king with a different surname is detached.

Old Ji was leaning on a cane with one hand. Although he was over sixty years old, his body was straight and he looked like a soldier. It seemed that his background as a general was not groundless. "What are you arguing about? Don't let others see the joke." Ji Lao glanced around for a while, and when he landed on Qiyue, Qiyue's body tightened, and an indescribable feeling of coercion emerged spontaneously, but seeing others It seems that there is no such feeling.

At this moment, Mi Wei took a step forward and bowed deeply to Elder Ji, "Elder Ji, we support His Majesty not only because His Majesty is truly outstanding, but also because we have Emperor Jing's suicide note in our hands!" The last few words Mi Wei said, his voice suddenly rose, so that everyone present, including those waiting outside, could hear clearly.

Old Ji raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Is this really the case? Then you can take out the suicide note." As he spoke, he looked at Canghong Haotian, with no expression on his face.Canghong Haotian nodded, and took out a yellow scroll from his bosom. Everyone could see clearly that it was indeed an imperial edict issued by the emperor.Mi Wei took it, with a solemn face, and read aloud, "I, Canghong No. 11 Realm Emperor Canghong Po, because I feel unwell, I am afraid that I will return to Canghong in the future, so I made my last wish first. My son Cang Honghao is talented in astronomy and martial arts, and is worthy of a great responsibility, so he is recommended as the next Emperor of the Realm, and I hope that all the ministers will help you wholeheartedly, and I respect you!"

Everyone in the hall fell silent, Mi Wei had expected this result long ago, turned over the imperial decree, glanced at it for everyone, and then wanted to put it away, at some time Qian Shanxun had already walked up to him, and stretched out his hand to Mi Wei to stop him, "Master Mi, wait a minute, Qianshan's eyesight is not good, I didn't see clearly just now, can you open it again so we can have a look?"

Mi Wei frowned, snorted coldly, but still unfolded the imperial decree, and those ministers also stretched their necks to look, "Really, it's really the emperor's words..."

"It turns out that Emperor Jing made a suicide note." Such words kept coming and going.Qian Shan smiled and said, "It really is Jinghuang's handwriting, but there is one thing that Qian Shan doesn't understand, why is the great seal of Canghong Chuanguo Jade Seal missing from the imperial decree!"

With a coaxing sound, the hall exploded, and many people started to discuss it, and many people from the Canghong Xiaoran faction even doubted the authenticity of the imperial decree.Both Mi Wei and Canghong Haotian looked ugly, and handed the imperial decree to Elder Ji, "This is indeed a real imperial edict, please look over it to Elder Ji."

Elder Ji was not too polite, and looked carefully, "The decree is indeed true, and the handwriting is also true, but it is also true without the big seal. Didn't King Huang explain it?"

Cang Hong Haotian stood up and saluted everyone, "Father is not in good health. I wanted to stamp the seal on the second day after it was written, but he passed away suddenly. We didn't expect it. I didn’t have time to tell me where it was placed.”

Ji Lao nodded, this explanation is barely acceptable, who knows that just after Canghong Haotian finished speaking, Qian Shanxun laughed, "The excuse of the great prince must have been discussed with Master Mi for a long time, so where is the jade seal? Before the emperor had time to tell, the great prince had already dug the palace three feet into the ground. Emperor Jing had already given the jade seal to the fourth prince when he felt that his health had deteriorated. Only our Fourth Prince can do that!"

Before Qian Shanxun finished speaking, Cang Hong Haotian stood up suddenly, "Where is the jade seal from you?" With an almost ferocious expression on his face, he looked at Cang Hong Xiaoran fiercely.Cang Hong Xiaoran also got up slowly, and smiled at Cang Hong Haotian, but the coldness in his eyes was better than the ice and snow outside, "Father wants to pass on the title of Emperor of the Realm to me, so naturally it is with me." Zhan Ye stepped forward and took out a box from his bosom, and opened it in front of everyone, it turned out to be Yuxi.
