thank you + extra

Liu Zao looked at the hall, but seeing the expressions of the ministers, they were all shaken.

An old man with a gray beard looked around, and then took a special look at Xie Xiang, stepped forward hesitantly and said: "Although the words of the king of Changyi are absurd, they are not unreasonable. Therefore, it is only because the king of Changyi is so desolate that it is difficult for him to be an important task in the Han Dynasty. As for the new king..." He glanced at Liu Zao and continued, "Emperor Wu also has other emperors and grandchildren, so it is not necessary to stand in the same line as the prince. "

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers did not agree with it, but looking at their expressions, most of them thought it was reasonable.

Liu Zao's heart sank, if she really acted according to what the old man said, Liu He's words would be taken seriously, and she would no longer be the daughter of Prince Wei, but an imposter who came from nowhere.

Liu Zao looked at Xie Yi.Xie Yi also looked at her.Her gaze was very calm, with almost no fluctuations, and Liu Zao could not see any hints.

Another minister came out and said, "I think so."

Liu He laughed, very proud.

Liu Zao pursed her lips and stopped looking at Xie Yi. She stood up and said, "I can prove myself that I am the grandson of Emperor Wu and the daughter of Prince Wei."

As soon as this remark came out, the officials were astonished, and Liu He also lowered his face, looking at her.Liu Zao seemed to see a smile in Xie Yi's eyes, but the smile was fleeting and disappeared before she could see it clearly.

Liu Zao doesn't care about her, she has to prove herself, if she can't prove her identity, she will be convicted of impersonating Liu's blood.

Liu Zao took a deep breath, and said to everyone: "I was born in Ye Ting, Ye Ting ordered Emperor Wu to tell me that I was the prince's blood, and Emperor Wu heard the news and immediately sent someone to investigate thoroughly. Spectrum, to continue the sacrifice of Prince Wei."

Her voice was slow and reassuring, and she continued: "The night I was born, my mother dreamed of a young fish going upstream. It was a carp."

The theory of Yuyuelongmen originated in the early Han Dynasty, and it is almost a well-known anecdote today.The fish jumps over the dragon gate and turns into a dragon. Who can know the meaning of dragon?

Everyone in the hall looked at Liu Zao with different meanings in their eyes.

Liu He was also fascinated by what he heard, and when he came to his senses, he couldn't help showing annoyed expression, and said mockingly: "I heard that your mother is only a member of the first palace, and she doesn't have much knowledge. It seems that the rumors are not true. At least she I have read history books, and I want to imitate the old things of the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother is the mother of Emperor Wu.When she was pregnant with Emperor Wu, she dreamed of the sun and the moon in her arms.This is to say that Liu Zao's mother fabricated it on purpose and was delusional.

But Liu Zao was not angry, and ignored him, and went on: "Emperor Wu heard about it and recited a poem, 'When the fish is in Zao, there is a prize for its head. The king is in the pickaxe, how happy is it to drink wine.' Give me a name Liu Zao, and gave me a herring pendant."

As she spoke, she took out the herring pendant from her sleeve and showed it in front of everyone.

Chapter 10 Portrait

The old man who just proposed to have another son leaned forward tremblingly, opened his cloudy eyes, and carefully looked at the herring pendant.After only a moment, his eyes lit up, and he immediately knelt down: "This is Emperor Wu's jade pendant. I have seen it before. It was a tribute from the Dawan Kingdom. Emperor Wu loved it. After getting this pendant, he almost never leaves his body."

The old man, who was very old, cried bitterly when he said this: "Later, the herring pendant disappeared, and Emperor Wu didn't mention it. I only thought that the herring pendant was lost or Emperor Wu put it away, but I didn't expect it to be given to the little emperor. Grandson."

There were other elders in the hall who also wiped away their tears.

Liu Zao knew that these were veteran ministers of Emperor Wu's dynasty, and to be able to stand in this hall, they must be high-ranking ministers who were deeply trusted by Emperor Wu back then.

Liu Zao looked at the old man lying on the ground crying bitterly, wanted to know his name, but didn't know how to ask.Liang Ji was at the side, noticing her expression, he went to her side and whispered: "This is Yang Chang Yang Gong, who is the official censor."

The doctor Yushi has identified that this herring pendant is indeed the Emperor Wu's, and the officials have no doubts.

Liu Zao went to see Xie Yi again, but Xie Yi didn't show any expression, nor did she show any worry, she didn't speak.She is the head of all officials, so she should not be so silent under such circumstances.Liu Zao had a bad premonition, feeling that the matter was not over yet.

Liang Ji looked around the hall and said loudly: "A country cannot be without a king for a day. The identity of the emperor and grandson has been verified, when..."

But Liu He still didn't give up and interrupted him: "The herring pendant is real, but people may not be real. Someone must have taught her this, and the jade pendant was given to her by someone else!" Ripples move back and forth.

Liu Zao frowned.

Yang Chang had already stood up, wiped away his tears, and said, "Changyi Wangxiu, stop messing around."

Liang Ji also showed a look of irritability.

However, many ministers in the palace thought that King Changyi's words were justified, they didn't open their mouths, but their expressions were suspicious.

If this suspicion is not resolved at this time, it will surely become a thorn in the hearts of everyone, making everyone think of this time from time to time.Even if the little emperor's grandson ascended the throne, his blood would be suspected.

Liu Zao wanted it, and Liang Jizi wanted it too, but he didn't care about so much for the time being, as long as he put the emperor's grandson on the throne first, we will discuss the matter in the future.

He ignored Liu He, turned to face the queen mother, and said respectfully: "I invite you to appoint the emperor's grandson as..."

"The king of Changyi suspects that the herring pendant is not enough proof, but I have another solid proof here." Xie Yi finally spoke out.

Liang Ji was interrupted again, he glared at Xie Yi, but he dared not speak out.

The empress dowager who was sitting high on the top finally said: "Thank you, please tell me."

Liu Zao also looked at Xie Yi, her hands were tightly clenched into fists under her sleeves, her palms were sweaty, she couldn't figure out that if the herring pendant bestowed by Emperor Wu was not enough to prove it, what else could be called For ironclad evidence.

Xie Yi took a few steps and walked in front of Liu Zao, her eyes resting on her face.

She is taller than her, and Liu Zao has to raise his head slightly to meet her eyes.Xie Yi looked at her for a moment and said, "There should still be a portrait of Empress Wei left in the palace."

As soon as these words came out, all the officials in the palace showed a sudden look.

Liu Zao also paid attention to what she meant.

Looks cannot be faked.If she looks similar to Queen Wei, it will naturally prove that she is the grandson of Queen Wei.It was only then that Liu Zao understood that Xiang Xie kept silent all this time because she was confident.It's just that she never knew that she actually looked similar to Queen Wei.

Soon, someone from the palace invited out a portrait and displayed it in front of all the ministers.Empress Wei is different from Emperor Wu, she lives deep in the harem, not many ministers have seen her, not to mention that 15 years have passed now, naturally there are very few.

The ministers looked back and forth between the portrait and the emperor's grandson.

The emperor's grandson is indeed seven points similar to Queen Wei.

This cannot be faked.

No one in the palace has any doubts.

Liu He's face was ashen, and his eyebrows were tightly knit together. He took a step forward, stared at the portrait for a few breaths, showing disbelief, and murmured: "I've seen the portrait of Empress Wei. The portrait is fake!"

He turned his head and glared at Xie Yi, but no one in the hall believed him anymore.Full of anger, Liang Ji stepped forward and grabbed King Changyi's wrist, "invited" him out of the palace, and put him under guard.

As soon as the King of Changyi left, the palace immediately became orderly, and the ministers had no doubts anymore, they knelt down together, just as if they had just asked the Queen Mother to depose the King of Changyi in unison, and asked the Queen Mother to appoint the grandson as the new king.

The Queen Mother naturally agreed.

Liu Zao thus became the emperor.She didn't know how Prime Minister Xie and the Queen Mother summoned the ministers and made plans before today, but they only established her as the new monarch with only a few words.

Xie Yi stepped forward to hold her wrist, sent her to the Queen Mother, and sat on the couch side by side with the Queen Mother.The ministers stood up and knelt down, calling His Majesty.

Liu Zao is chaotic, just feels like a dream.She accepted the ministers' kneeling in a daze, got up in a daze, and was sent back to the apse, back to the apse where the female officer had brought her just now.The female officer was still there, apparently having heard the commotion outside, knelt down to her and called her Your Majesty.

Liu Zao's mind was in a mess, and she couldn't help but start thinking again, but this time she didn't know where to start.

There was a sound of footsteps in the main hall, as if the officials had dispersed.

Xie Yi walked in suddenly.

Liu Zao looked at her and didn't speak.

Xie Yi didn't salute either, she looked at Liu Zao and said, "Stand back." This sentence was addressed to the female officer.

The female officer hesitated, Xie Yi turned to look at her.The female officer gave a quick salute and said, "No." She exited the door.

There are only two of them left in this palace.Liu Zao actually felt that her messy mood cleared up, she looked up at Xie Yi, and asked, "I'm the emperor now?"

Xie Yi didn't seem to expect her first sentence to be this, and a smile appeared in her eyes again, this time it didn't go away in a flash, but it took a long time, she said: "According to the law of etiquette, your majesty is only the heir to the emperor right now. After the enthronement ceremony, you will be the emperor. But your Majesty should change his name to 'Zhen'."

Liu Zao breathed out slightly, and asked again: "The king of Changyi said that the portrait is fake, but what he said is true?"

Xie Yi replied: "The portrait was painted by the painter according to His Majesty's appearance. What the King of Changyi said is indeed true."
