In order to obtain further information, he also made some plans for tomorrow's activities.

After drinking the hot tea in the cup, Gu Shang slowly stood up.

"Endlessly climbing up, this feeling is really fascinating."

Raising his vision infinitely, he found that he was now in a small stage in his life.

Each stage has its own goals. After completing one goal, there will be the next goal, and so on. It's an infinite cycle, over and over again.

Let's take down the origin of this world first.

...

...

...

The next morning.

Before dawn, Duan Hongyu brought his relatives to the gate of the palace to wait.

After a night of hard thinking, he finally figured out the meaning of the two sentences that Li Gonggong said.

Now the father's health is good, that is to say, he has no intention of giving up power. Under this situation, what are the brothers fighting for?

I haven't died yet, and I'm fighting for the next throne again?

As the son of heaven, as the emperor, the father has supreme power in the country, and many things can only be given by him personally.

Eunuch Li told him so much just to keep him safe and sound.

Don't do anything weird during this period to upset His Majesty.

After waiting in front of the palace for a while, many ministers came one after another. They also had their own spies who got the news in advance. After seeing Duan Hongyu, they walked up and started to build relationships.

Looking at the disgusting faces of these people, Duan Hongyu felt very complicated, but more of it was good.

From childhood to adulthood, he had never had this feeling of being flattered.

In the first few years, in order to survive, he had to participate in this cruel competition for the throne. But the power behind him was too weak, so he could only give up his dignity and form an alliance with these ministers and generals.

But at that time, his chances of success were too low, and no one put the chips on him.

The only ones who stood with him were a few servants who grew up with him, and the only useful thing about him was the identity of the third prince.

The time of enjoying flattery and privilege is always short.

Not long after, a ray of light gradually appeared on the horizon. Then, under the shouting of a eunuch, the gate of the palace slowly opened, and a group of people walked towards the towering building in front of them without saying a word.

Walking on the endless steps, Duan Hongyu's heart was full of passion.

Ten minutes later, the group arrived at the gate of the palace smoothly.

Entering the palace, there was another series of tedious activities and various complicated etiquette.

After everything was over, the Dali Emperor sitting on the dragon throne coughed lightly.

He was just about to speak.

The next moment, his body fell forward uncontrollably, and the close guards standing on both sides hurriedly reached out to support him.

When they touched the emperor's body, their faces changed rapidly.

"Your Majesty, you are dead!!!"

The guard said timidly.

Although there was a set of stairs between the upper and lower levels, the guard's words were still heard by the ministers below.

Everyone was stunned.

Didn't it just reveal that His Majesty was a master of the state of concentration? Why did he die suddenly?

However, before they could come to their senses.

An old-looking eunuch with a gloomy aura came forward with a roll of imperial edict in his hand.

"Your Majesty has been ill from overwork recently, and he is in danger of dying because of the forced attack a few days ago."

"Your Majesty knew that he would die soon, so he left this imperial edict in advance."

Standing next to the two eunuchs, the old eunuch glanced at the emperor's body and continued.

"Why don't you accept the edict?"

He stood on the high palace, looking down at the ministers below.

Everyone knew the identity of this eunuch.

He grew up with the emperor and was responsible for all the miscellaneous matters around the emperor. In many cases, he represented the emperor.

"Long live the emperor!"

The ministers no longer hesitated and knelt on the ground, with huge waves in their hearts.

When they lowered their heads, everyone's eyes involuntarily looked at the third prince who was kneeling in the middle.

Yesterday, His Majesty conveyed the imperial edict to let the third prince take over as the crown prince, but within a day, His Majesty suddenly left.

There must be some conspiracy that they could not guess or figure out during this period.

They were very curious, what did the person who made His Majesty die like this write in the imperial edict?

Will the third prince still be the crown prince?

The old eunuch fully unfolded the imperial edict and began to read it aloud with both sound and form.

"By the order of heaven, the emperor decrees."

"The third prince Duan Hongyu is gentle and elegant, humble in character, capable of both literature and martial arts, and outstanding in talent."

Hearing the three words Duan Hongyu, everyone understood.

"Respectfully inform the heaven and earth, the state, and the ancestral temple, grant him the imperial seal and make him the crown prince."

The content of the imperial edict was very concise.

Duan Hongyu's mouth corners could not be suppressed.

He pinched his skin and flesh hard to prevent this smile from being completely exposed.

"Son, I accept the order!!"

...

...

...

The morning court ended so suddenly.

No one expected that His Majesty would pass away suddenly, and before his death, he even officially named the Third Prince as the Crown Prince.

With this imperial edict, plus the fact that the third prince was the oldest among all the existing princes, and some other factors, many adults in the court, the harem, and even the border areas began to frequently contact Duan Hongyu.

After becoming the crown prince, the third prince immediately announced his succession.

Anyway, his father was dead, and no one continued to stop him, so he must take this position as soon as possible.

No one felt the slightest surprise.

In this vastness, the third prince became the new emperor, old and long-lived.

After obtaining this supreme power, he began to handle all the affairs of the emperor and appointed all his subordinates as high officials, but these positions belonged to the middle and lower levels, and the top ones were still old officials of the previous dynasty.

After all, he thought he did not have outstanding ability to manage the country, and there were no talents under his command, so these old people had to continue to be employed.

But in order to cultivate his own power, he immediately issued an edict to open the imperial examination in the shortest time.

The whole process went smoothly.

This made him extremely confused.

No one came out to oppose, no one came out to stop, it was really too abnormal.

Half a month after ascending the throne.

Duan Hongyu had completely entered this role.

The next day.

He was enjoying happiness with several newly appointed concubines in the harem.

Several figures suddenly appeared, pushed open the door without hesitation, and lifted him up from the bed.

"You, who are you!"

"Why are you arresting me?"

"This is the Dali Palace, you are so brave, who gave you the courage?"

Duan Hongyu looked unhappy.

These people were wearing special black armor, with strong physique and strong strength. They didn't care about his feelings at all, and pressed him into a small pavilion deep in the palace in one breath.

In the center of the pavilion, there was an acquaintance sitting.

"Zhang Goudan?"
