"Shh, keep your voice down, don't talk nonsense."

"What are you afraid of? There are no soldiers around. Besides, everyone scolds me like that."

As we talked, the topic changed from "negotiating peace" to the fall of Qingzhou.

"Did Xu Yinluo not even be able to defend Qingzhou? He was a strong man who wiped out the entire 20 army of the Witch God Sect at Yuyang Pass."

"I've heard your question countless times. Who knows, speaking of it, I haven't seen Xu Yinluo appear in the capital for a long time."

"What I heard is that all the supervisors died in Qingzhou, and Xu Yinluo is not the opponent of the Yunzhou rebels."

"Hey, it's no wonder Xu Yinluo is so low-key, there's nothing he can do, he can't beat him."

After venting their emotions for so many days, although most of the people were upset, they still scolded the court and Yunzhou's peace decision in private, but they were helpless.

Opposition has been less so.

Especially after the fall of Qingzhou and the entry of the Yunzhou mission to Beijing, a series of rumors fermented and spread. The people in the capital have gradually figured out the ins and outs, and learned that Dafeng's guardian god prison is dying in Qingzhou.

Although in their eyes, the prestige of Jianzheng is far less than that of Xu Yinluo.

In the understanding of the people at the bottom, Jianzheng is just a title, a concept.

At this time, the official standing beside the notice said loudly:

"The ancient king of the world focused on protecting the lives of the people. He couldn't bear to harm others by supporting others. Since he took the throne, he has not governed the country well. As a result, the rebels in Yunzhou rebelled, and Kyushu boiled. Zong

"Eldest Princess Huaiqing, with great virtues and great virtues, won many things, and the eldest princess Huaiqing ascended the throne, Xu Qi'an assisted, helped the community, quelled the rebellion, and made a big contribution to the world. Wouldn't it be a good thing? I respect this."

The notice was eloquent and over 400 words long. After the officials finished reading it, the people around were dumbfounded, as if they were frozen in place like sculptures.

"What, what do you mean?"

"It seems that the emperor abdicated to the eldest princess?" The speaker's eyes widened suddenly:

"The eldest princess wants to be the emperor?"

All of a sudden, the frying pan exploded, and the crowd was in an uproar.

The content of the notice caused a strong impact, shock and confusion to the people.

This made them no longer care about the disaster coming out of their mouths, and started a heated discussion.

"How can a woman be an emperor? Isn't this nonsense. Could it be that you bring an official to embroider together?"

"Is the princess literate? Why does Your Majesty abdicate to the princess? If a woman is the emperor, she is not afraid of being ridiculed by the world?"

Their first reaction was resistance, anger, and unacceptability. They just thought it was the most ridiculous thing in the world.

Then someone said:

"Have you listened to books in the teahouse? It seems that there used to be a woman who was the emperor. What's her name?"

"Empress Dayang?"

"Yes, yes, you have heard of it."

The noise stopped for a while, obviously, many people have also heard similar content in restaurants, teahouses, brothels and other places of entertainment and recreation in the past few days.

Then someone else said:

"The notice says that the eldest princess will be assisted by Xu Yinluo when she ascends the throne."

Oh, with Xu Yinluo assisting.

The voice of opposition was a little weaker, but there were still people muttering:

"Why did Xu Yinluo assist a woman to become the emperor? Isn't this nonsense. I have been in power for 600 years, but there is no such precedent."

"Yeah, I really don't know what the official and Xu Yinluo are thinking, while negotiating peace with Yunzhou, while promoting the princess as the emperor."

"Xu Yinluo is confused."

Originally regarded Xu Qi'an as a hero and protector of the people of the gods, he was disappointed with the fall of Qingzhou, and even regarded the peace negotiation as a shame. Although no one publicly accused Xu Qi'an, he must be disappointed in his heart.

As soon as the notice was posted, disappointment immediately fermented and turned into dissatisfaction.

Suddenly, a loud noise attracted the attention of the people around the notice wall.

Following the sound, I saw a train of prison cars coming slowly, followed by a large group of civilians, who kept throwing stones and spitting at the prisoners in the prison cars.

Some people carried toilets and poured feces on the prisoners in the prison van.

Among the leading riders, a watchman was on the back of his horse, beating a gong and shouting:

"Under the order of Xu Yinluo, parade Yunzhou against the party to the public."

On both sides of the street, there was a lot of excitement. Some people who came to join in the fun after hearing the news, some joined the ranks of throwing stones, some pointed and cursed, and some clapped their hands and sang loudly.

Ji Yuan's head was covered with blood, and his heart was ashamed.

The accompanying Yunzhou officials trembled and wept bitterly.

dusk.

In the imperial study room, Huaiqing sat behind the big case where the yellow silk was laid, and in the hall were the two party leaders Liu Hong and Qian Qingshu, as well as the minister of the Ministry of Rites.

The Minister of Rites made a bow and said:

"Your Highness, preparations have been made for enthronement."

Huaiqing, who was wearing an elegant palace dress, nodded slightly.

After the Minister of Rites returned to his position, Liu Hong went out to bow:

"Today, the whole city is boiling, and the people still have feelings of resistance, but it's not serious. Xu Yinluo's reputation has also improved. The people in the capital are still mostly admirers."

After Liu Hong finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing:

"With Xu Yinluo's current reputation, it is most suitable to escort His Highness. No one in the dynasty is more popular than him."

The aristocratic class is actually more acceptable than the common people when the princess ascends the throne and proclaims the emperor. As long as the benefits are in place and then coerced by force, there are not a few people who succumb.

The most important thing is that in the eyes of the ruling class, although Huaiqing is a woman, she is of royal blood after all.

It is an exception for a woman to proclaim the emperor, and the next new emperor will still be the Dafeng royal family.

This greatly eased the resistance of the ruling class.
