Dressed as Wu Dalang, Jinlian please respect yourself

Chapter 92 Enthronement Ceremony [Part 2]

"Have all the officials arrived?"

The right yelled to the guards escorting all the officials.

The guards clasped their hands: "Master Hui, except for Taiwei Gaoqiu and Tong Guan who escaped, the rest are already here."

The Prime Minister on the right nodded and waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat.

All the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering what the right minister wanted to do?
The doctor Yu Shi was bold enough to bow his hands to the right minister: "Master Xiang, what is the reason why you sent troops to force us here today?"

The right minister smiled and said: "Doctor Yushi and colleagues should not misunderstand, I received news from the inner court yesterday that the emperor passed away yesterday and ascended to heaven.

In order to avoid turmoil in the capital, the old man transferred Liangshan army and Yanmenguan army into the capital to maintain order.

Today, everything has been settled, the old man invites you to come to announce the last emperor's edict, and to welcome His Royal Highness the crown prince to succeed him as the new emperor. "

The officials were very surprised when they heard the news of the emperor's death.

"Master Xiang, are you serious? The emperor really passed away yesterday?"

"Yes, Mr. Xiang, this is no joke."

The right minister said: "How dare the truth make a joke about such an important matter. After a while, His Royal Highness will come out according to the will."

As soon as the words fell, the eunuch's voice came from outside: "His Royal Highness is here!"

The crown prince walked into the court hall, and all the officials rushed forward to greet him. They all knelt down and shouted: "His Royal Highness is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

"Everyone, get up."

All the officials got up and stood on both sides according to their positions.

The crown prince walked up to the dragon chair, turned to face all the officials, with a mournful expression on his face: "Yesterday, my father passed away, and my heart is very sad..."

The Prime Minister on the right stood up and bowed his hands to the crown prince: "My condolences, Your Highness!

The country cannot be without a king for a day, and His Majesty has ascended to heaven. His Majesty should come up with a will to inherit the great rule as soon as possible, so as to reassure the hearts of the people in the world. "

The crown prince glanced at the prime minister on the right, sneered in his heart, and took out the imperial edict from his arms.

The prime minister on the right stepped forward to take it, but was stopped by the prince.

"Some of the content in this edict is related to the left minister.

Therefore, in order to read the imperial edict, the Prime Minister Zuo must also be brought to the hall to read it clearly face to face. "

The imperial edict on the fake prince was written by his staff, and he naturally knew the content about the death of the left prime minister.

Take this opportunity to humiliate Prime Minister Zuo.

Prime Minister on the right smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Come on, bring Prime Minister Zuo up!"

Zuo Xiang was brought up, his face was haggard, his clothes were ragged, he looked like a beggar.

Mixing in the crowd, Shan Yun, who was disguised as a man, couldn't bear to see her adoptive father in such a miserable state. Just as she was about to step forward, Wu Tian's eyes signaled her not to move.

Shanyun bit her lower lip tightly, and finally held back and didn't go forward.

Zuo Xiang raised his head and glanced at everyone in the court hall, his eyes finally fell on Wu Tian.

"Aren't you Wu Tian who sells sesame seed cakes in Qinghe County?"

Wu Tian took a step forward and bowed his hands to the left: "I am Wu Tian."

"I heard that after you were framed by the magistrate of Qinghe County, you left Qinghe County and went to Liangshan to become a bandit. Why are you here now?"

"I……"

The prime minister on the right interjected: "Tou Ling Wu has led the heroes of Liangshan to return to the real minister, and is now a member of the imperial court.

Today is the day when the crown prince enthrones, so he should be here to participate in the grand ceremony. "

The left minister was shocked and stared at the right minister: "The crown prince ascended the throne? You mean the emperor..."

The crown prince said: "Master Zuo, my father passed away yesterday."

Zuo Xiang sat slumped on the ground, and immediately burst into tears.

He cried for the death of the emperor and failed to see the last side.

He cried that the prince was young and the right minister was in power.

He lamented that Wutian led Liangshan to seek refuge with the Right Prime Minister and helped the evildoers.

The Prime Minister on the right snorted coldly, and stared at the Prime Minister on the left condescendingly: "It's too late for you to cry now, the late emperor had a will, saying that you harmed the country and the people, and you should be punished for your crime!"

Prime Minister on the left raised his head, glanced at Prime Minister on the right, and sneered: "I don't believe it. I am loyal to the Song court and wholeheartedly serve the country. The emperor would not treat me like this!"

"Do not believe?"

The right minister laughed loudly, and looked at the prince, "His Royal Highness, please read out the emperor's last edict in public, so that the left minister can be convinced."
