"Yes"

General Pan had no excuse to stay, so he had to take the imperial edict and leave.

Soon after he left, the emperor felt dizzy and wanted to sleep.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

The eunuch beside him saw that something was wrong with him and rushed forward to check.

"I feel a little dizzy and want to sleep. Please call the imperial physician to come and see me."

Although he just wanted to sleep, the emperor was an expert in using poisons. He knew he must have been poisoned, but he couldn't figure out what the poison was!

"Yes"

The eunuch quickly asked someone to find the imperial physician as soon as possible.

The emperor felt increasingly sleepy, so he waved his hand and asked his guards to come over.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Meihong saw that he was in bad condition and hurried out to ask.

"Did General Pan do anything to me just now? Did you notice?"

The emperor was somewhat suspicious, but not sure. After all, General Pan had followed him for many years, and he had been behaving himself and not moving just now.

But after the court session, he only saw him, and of course he had eaten and drunk tea, so he was not sure who had poisoned him!

"No, I was watching him the whole time and didn't see him do anything."

Meihong was indeed staring at General Pan just now. She even kept staring at him when his fingers moved a few times.

"But I am sure that this is poisoned."

After the emperor finished speaking, he could no longer hold on and fell down on the dragon table, unable to open his eyes anymore.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Everyone in the imperial study was shocked by this sudden change.

After General Pan came out of the palace, he went directly to the place where ordinary people signed up to join the army.

There are fewer people today than yesterday, and the notes that King An had people shoot in did have some effect.

General Pan had the emperor's edict, so he quickly took over the place.

“Prepare extra meals for lunch so that all of them can eat their fill before training.

Those who have not registered yet have also prepared their lunch.”

Since the master doesn't want to kill these ordinary people, then give them a chance to live, hoping they will cherish it in the future!

"Yes"

The soldiers under his command went to carry out a lot of food. Fortunately, they had enough food, otherwise they would have felt reluctant to give it to these useless people.

After lunch, General Pan took the soldiers to look around. Fortunately, most of them had fallen down. He quickly took his men to the city gate.

It was even more satisfying to see that some of the soldiers at the city gate had fallen down.

"Go open the city gate and welcome our real master."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. General Pan actually went to open the city gate, Your Majesty!"

Prime Minister Zhang and several of his colleagues rushed into the Emperor's Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

There were many imperial doctors here, and the emperor was lying on the bed motionless.

"What's wrong with the emperor? Tell me quickly."

Prime Minister Zhang roared,

When several other officials came in and saw this scene, they were so frightened that their legs went weak and they knelt down.

If anything happened to the emperor, they would all be doomed.

"The emperor has been drunk for three days and will not wake up until three days later. We don't have an antidote, so there is nothing we can do."

The head of the Imperial Hospital said.

"How can there be no antidote? As long as it is poison, there is an antidote. Hurry up and detoxify the emperor, or I will kill you now."

Prime Minister Zhang pulled out a sword from the guard and pointed it at the imperial physician.

"Prime Minister, spare our lives! We really don't have an antidote for this three-day drunkenness. Even if you do, Prime Minister, you will kill us.

We still don't have the antidote, so we can only wait until three days later, when the emperor will wake up naturally."

The imperial doctors quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, as they really didn't know how to cure this poison.

"Why did the emperor fall for this three-day drunkenness?"

Prime Minister Zhang knew that the emperor would use poison, so he would not fall into other people's trap easily.

"Now it seems that it was General Pan who did it, but I don't know how he did it. None of us saw him do it."

Meihong said with some self-blame.

"This three-day drunk is colorless and tasteless. If anyone eats or smells it, they may be poisoned and will sleep for three days afterwards."

The doctor added.

"It's over. That Pan turned out to be a thief. We didn't see it for so many years! Now everything is over."

When Prime Minister Zhang heard that the emperor was going to sleep for three days, he suddenly became distracted. Even the knife in his hand fell to the ground.

"No, Prime Minister, we can't give up like this. We still have 3 imperial guards, and the emperor still has tens of thousands of soldiers. We can still fight again."

Meihong quickly helped him up.

"It's no use, many soldiers have been knocked unconscious, and that bastard Pan has already opened the city gate.

Now Gu Yiyan has brought his men to attack us, and the emperor is unable to issue orders, so we don’t even have room to resist.”

When Prime Minister Zhang thought about this, he fainted from anger.

Gu Yiyan is indeed charging in with an army of more than 20.

"Kill those who resist, and tie up all those who are unconscious."

Most of the soldiers in the capital were knocked unconscious.

The strength of the two sides was completely unequal, so Gu Yiyan quickly led his men into the palace.

Seeing that the emperor was still asleep, he did not kill him immediately, but killed all the people around him first, including the ministers in the court who were loyal to the emperor.

As for the remaining civil and military officials, Gu Yiyan showed them the edict of succession left by the late emperor, and he wanted to succeed to the throne legitimately.

"Since this is the will left by the late emperor, we should all obey it. Let the Imperial Observatory pick a good day for the new emperor to ascend the throne."

After reading the imperial edict, some officials immediately agreed.

"That's how it should be. The country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Welcome the new emperor to the throne!"

Soon other officials also agreed. They were all civil servants. What could they do if they didn't obey? It was impossible for the whole family to seek death, right?

"Welcome the new emperor to the throne!"

Soon a large number of officials knelt down.

"Well, Ouyang Kai, the Minister of Rites, from today on, I will promote you to the position of Minister of Rites. All matters concerning my enthronement will be arranged by you."

He had already killed the previous Minister of Rites, so he would feel more at ease appointing someone else.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Ouyang Kai quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.

"Get up. Those who do good things in the future will have peace for the rest of their lives."

His meaning is very clear: obey his life and oppose his death.

After saying this, Gu Yiyan went to see his good brother.

"Gu Luoyan, you and I are brothers, and I have told you again and again that I will not compete with you for this position. Why don't you believe me?

Why didn't you even let your own mother go?"

Gu Yiyan asked General Pan to give him the antidote, saying it would be safer to get rid of this person first.
