fake prince

Chapter 1386: The spirit is in place
The rain was still falling, and the palace near and far was in chaos. From further away, the sound of fighting was still faintly heard.

The pavilion is surrounded by incense and the aroma is pleasant.

Zhaoxia wore flat soft shoes and walked lightly. She looked at the couch and slightly lowered the curtain.

…………

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the royal meal has arrived."

There was a soft sound outside the door, and the queen suddenly woke up and looked around.

The Xuan windows are hidden, the secluded rooms are curved, and the surroundings are all familiar styles, but I don’t know why, but it looks dark, silent, and a bit dim.

The emperor watched her adjust her appearance and did not get up. He only chuckled: "The queen is extremely beautiful right now."

Her beautiful eyes glanced at the emperor, and the queen pressed her eyebrows. She felt inexplicably sad and a little surprised in her heart. She suppressed her emotions and said loudly: "Bring in the food, I want to eat with the emperor."

"Yes, ma'am."

Soon the meal was placed on the table.

"All of you, please step aside! I will accompany you to have dinner with your wife, and there is no need to serve you."

The emperor looked at the meal on the table and turned to give instructions to the palace maids and eunuchs.

"Yes, please leave." The palace maid and eunuch bowed and slowly exited the door, closing the door.

"Come, Queen, feed me." The Emperor said, his posture was like that of a child. Looking at his rogue appearance, the Queen could not do anything to him. She slowly sat beside her, her cheeks were as red as burning, and her eyes were watery. Feed them with spoonfuls of food.

Her heart hurt, and the queen felt a little sad, but suddenly stopped her hand.

"Are you tired? Go take a rest earlier." The emperor asked with concern.

"Where is Fu'er? Why didn't I see Fu'er today to say hello?" Tears gradually stained her pretty face, and the queen murmured to herself in confusion and fear.

Everything in front of me suddenly felt so ethereal, and even more so, a bit dark.

"Ugh……"

The emperor sat in front of the collapse, silent, just sighing. In an instant, his temples turned white and he had aged for decades.

The queen only felt unfamiliar. She retreated and stumbled until her back was against the wall, and a biting chill rushed straight down her spine.

"Fu'er... I have something to do today, so I won't be here." The emperor finally raised his head and looked at her again, with helplessness in his eyes.

"Look at you, you are already the mother of a country, why are you so surprised?"

"Fu'er is old and has left the palace. If he doesn't come sometimes, what's the big deal?"

"Yes, is it?"

The queen thought for a while, and felt vaguely that there seemed to be no problem, but she was still a little conflicted.

"Of course, you and I are married. Do you even doubt me?"

"Well, that's not it."

The queen didn't know why she lost her composure today, so she just sat down a little further away and talked to her husband.

"I seem to have a lot of things that I can't remember... I feel scared... very uneasy..."

"Don't be afraid..."

The emperor comforted her, stretched out his hand, and gently patted her hand on the table.
"Relax...you'll be fine...you'll be lucky..."

"Do you remember?"

"I once asked, if I did something wrong, you would forgive me...right?" The emperor looked at the queen sincerely with hope in his eyes.

"..." The queen hesitated.

I have said it before, but... the words of forgiveness are stuck in my throat, but I can't say them out.

"Forgive me...it's all over..."

The emperor stood up and wanted to say something else, but the surroundings suddenly darkened.

"Your Majesty!" A eunuch called outside: "It's time - it's time -" The emperor let go of his hand, and the clothes hanging on the bamboo pole naturally came loose.

"Alas..." The voice melted into the darkness, and everything was blown by the wind, gradually going away, and could no longer be seen.

The light illuminated the room, and the queen woke up on the couch. The frown lines on her eyebrows became more and more profound. It turned out that she had been waiting anxiously and fell asleep unknowingly, and she had such a dream.

There was a lot of sweat on her forehead, and she pursed her lips tightly: "What's going on?"

At this time, hurried steps came from the corridor. Suddenly, the queen's heart palpitated, and an unprecedented panic came over her.

Almost exactly the same as the prince back then.

Just as he was thinking about it, the eunuch Yu Han came in a hurry. When he saw the queen, he bowed with a complicated look on his face and said, "Your Majesty, your grandson has entered the palace."

"Where is the emperor?" The queen trembled and asked.

"The Emperor has passed away!"

"Huh?" The queen didn't seem to hear clearly, her expression was in a daze, her fine white teeth were clenched, and her body was shaking a little.

"The emperor has passed away!" The great eunuch Yu Han realized something was wrong and lowered his voice.

The queen sat blankly without saying a word. After a long while, her body slowly fell down. Suddenly everyone around her was stunned. Yu Han went up with a "scream", regardless of suspicion, and immediately checked.

After a moment, he relaxed slightly, pressed his acupuncture points, and told Zhaoxia: "Quick, go get the medicine!"

"Oh..." The queen gasped and woke up. She waved her hands feebly, tears bursting from her eyes, but she immediately gave orders.

"Use my seal to issue an edict immediately!"

"Order Changle Guards and all the eunuchs in the palace to obey the grandson's control."

"If you are in the seventh rank or above, please bow to your grandson and ask your grandson to take the throne in front of the emperor immediately!"

"The King of Qi forced the palace and killed the emperor. The crime is unpardonable. The guards of the King Qin are all under the control of the grandson, and the rebels must be strangled."

"Yes!" The eunuch Yu Han responded loudly.

The Queen's Edict has no effect in normal times, but once the emperor dies and a new emperor is not born, it can be used to influence the world.

Seeing that the eunuch Yu Han was about to withdraw, the queen gave another order.

"And inform all the great scholars in the cabinet that the King of Qi has forced the palace to kill the emperor. The grandson has already ascended the throne in front of the emperor's body. He should appease the officials and the capital, Jinghou has decreed."

"Yes!" Yu Han understood that for such a big event, the news could not be blocked. Instead of hiding it, it was better to express the intention clearly and form the facts, leaving no room for outsiders to comment.

Yu Han took a deep breath, the empress, she is the empress after all, and she handled everything without leakage.

When Yu Han left with his decree and token, everything in the room returned to silence.

Yangxindian

In the corridor where Bi Xin, Gao Ze and others were waiting, a few red palace lanterns were swaying. Under the platform, people rushed over to bow. Rainwater spread over them, sometimes hitting their bodies. The skirts of their clothes were already half wet, and the coldness condensed and gradually penetrated into the texture. But everyone knelt down and no one moved.

In a blink of an eye, the eunuch Yu Han arrived. He had someone holding an umbrella and Yi Zhi in his arms. After arriving, he just looked at Zhao Bingzhong, immediately arranged his crown and belt, and walked in with Yi Zhi in his hand.

Almost at the same time, everyone followed, all officials of rank seven or above.

After entering, Yu Han was shocked even though it was expected. He saw that the emperor seemed to be asleep on the couch, with a slight flush on his cheeks.

The emperor who killed the prince, suppressed the queen, and conquered the world was gone like this.

Yu Han could hardly believe it.

But before he was angry, Zhao Bingzhong only read it, unfolded the blood edict, with no expression on his face, and read slowly: "I worked hard and fell ill from overwork, and in my later years I encountered many traitors and forced me into the palace... so that I was overly sad and indignant in my heart. , The old illness relapsed, and I knew my life was over. However, the country cannot be without a king for a day. My grandson is a noble character and has great talents, worthy of the country. I know this and order my grandson to ascend the throne immediately, kill the rebels, and restore peace."

There was no sound in the hall, and Yu Han continued to launch his decree.

"Now that Ai Tuan is ascending to the throne, the succession is particularly important. My great-grandson, Renxiao, Congrui, has been entrusted by me to control Li Yuan. It is only at this critical moment that I issue a special edict for this purpose. He immediately enthrones the throne with the Emperor Daxing in front of his soul. Handle major events, quell rebellions, and comfort the spirits in heaven!"

After the two decrees were exchanged, the eunuch immediately shouted: "Accept the decree, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Seeing the sight, all the guards and generals had no choice but to kneel three times and kowtow, shouting: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
