The people in Yichun Beiyuan are packing up their things, and the guards are also moving out heavy objects one after another, preparing to move to Chongwen Hall.

Ye Qiufeng brought Hua Muyu over, but she still chose to stay away, watching Ye Qiufeng in the spring pavilion, giggling and playing chess with the three beings.

After Hua Yulu learned how to play chess, she often mustered up the courage to ask Ye Qiufeng to play a game or two with him. Ye Qiufeng seldom came over, only once in two or three days. Unfortunately, the nanny can't play chess, so he can only wait for Ye Qiufeng Come, but the young master didn't dare to "play with things and lose one's ambition" with him at all.

I hope that after moving to Chongwen Hall, he can come more often than the fierce Hua Muyu.

"You are Ye Gong, what should I call you?" Hua Yulu asked while playing chess.

This question... Ye Qiufeng was a little embarrassed, but when he thought about it, he would have to change his mind sooner or later.

"Call...Father."

Hua Yulu was stunned for a long time before he stammered and said:

"I still have some memories. I remember that when I was very young, I lived in another place. I don't know where it is. I just remember that my mother took me there. I remember that one day it was very noisy, and many people were screaming and making strange noises. The voice had a very strange smell, and then I was taken away by the man holding the sword, and since then, I have never seen my mother again, and I have never seen Father before... Are you, Father?"

Ye Qiufeng nodded.

"But she's not my mother, she doesn't look like her at all."

"My aunt is your mother, and she is your mother."

Hua Yulu's face was sullen, and she seemed a little scared.

"From now on, she will not only be your aunt, but also your biological mother. If you don't like her, then... come to me, or send a guard to inform me. I will play chess with you, and practice martial arts in the future. I'm going to check it out."

"Then after moving to Chongwen Hall, can I get out of Chongwen Hall?" Hua Yulu asked.

"Of course, you can ask the young master or young master to accompany you, or ask the guard to accompany you. You can't run out alone. If you run out alone, Father will also discipline you." Ye Qiufeng said with a smile.

"Okay, Father."

Hua Yulu smiled happily, and was finally released after four years in prison in Beiyuan, Yichun.

……

There are more than ten days before the succession ceremony, Ye Qiufeng ordered the palace guards to cover the throne and the steps in front of the throne with black curtains, and arrange two rows next to each other in the center of the inner hall. In the future, like a meeting hall, courtiers sit down to discuss politics.

The king sits in the center of the front, with himself and Hua Muyu on the left and right sides, and Hua Yulu who is still young. Such an arrangement can prevent him from sitting on the throne and becoming cranky due to the neglect of the courtiers.

Sitting closer can allow you to listen to the courtiers' discussions. If Hua Yulu feels panic, you can also accompany him, and it doesn't appear that you are manipulating the government affairs. It is more suitable than sitting on the throne with Hua Muyu.

In mid-May, after the mess in the Lizheng Hall was cleaned up and thoroughly investigated, the martial law was lifted in the palace, and more than 600 officials and officials, big and small, who lived in various squares and streets, poured out of the palace one after another, and went back to their homes.

The courtiers who came out of the palace were few and far between. Thirty guards in two rows walked out of the palace neatly.

Under the protection of two rows of guards, Ye Qiufeng led Hua Muyu and held the youngest Hua Yuzhen in his arms, and his father led Hua Yulu and Hua Yuzhen for her, and walked out of the palace on foot.

This battle quickly attracted crowds of residents, and the entire Royal Street became lively and crowded.

"My lord is parading, pay attention to avoiding!" The guards walking in front knocked the gong from time to time to clear the way for the few people walking behind.

"Xiao Yehou is really still alive? Is that Xiao Yehou? Why has his appearance changed so much?"

"I heard it was tortured by traitors."

"Didn't you say that your hamstring is broken? How can you still walk?"

"It's not Xiao Yehou anymore, it's Ye Gong."

The twittering of discussions was so dense that it was hard to hear clearly. Some residents waved and smiled at her, but Ye Qiufeng responded with a smile.

"Ye Gong, it doesn't sound good, but Ye Hou sounds better." Ye Qiufeng whispered to Hua Muyu.

Hua Muyu glanced at her:

"Master, unique."

"Because of this, so...?"

Hua Muyu was speechless:

"You really don't understand style."

It was the first time Hua Yuzhen left the palace, and she was still so noisy. She pursed her mouth, feeling a little scared, and wanted to retreat to the quiet and safe palace.

"Father, I want to go back, there are many people."

"Hey, what's there to be afraid of people, look at them, they only look at you because they like you." Ye Qiufeng caressed gently.

Hearing the sound, she opened her big innocent eyes, and the eyeballs rolled everywhere.

Seeing the chattering onlookers with smiles on their faces and waving at her, as if she knew herself, she also smiled and waved at them.

"Well, don't be afraid anymore, they are not as scary as their mothers." Hua Yuzhen gritted her teeth and looked around curiously.

Hua Muyu on the side was caught off guard, just gritted his teeth and widened his eyes, Ye Qiufeng quickly squeezed her hand, and coaxed her with a shy smile:

"Tongyan Wuji, don't take it to heart."

……

The succession ceremony was held outside the Great Inner Hall, Honglu Temple arranged a feast outside the hall, Zongzheng Temple set up a large platform, and the tributes were displayed in a dazzling array.

According to the etiquette, the successor king must worship the heaven and the earth on a tall platform and seek the blessings of the heaven and the earth.

Hua Yulu, who was wearing the crown uniform, was very panicked. Ye Qiufeng had to lead Hua Muyu to accompany him.

Hua Yulu climbed up the steps step by step according to the order of etiquette, and finally walked to the high platform, holding a nine-pillar golden incense stick longer than half of him, bowed his head and knelt down to heaven and earth.

The bell and drum sounded rumblingly, and with the sound of the drum, Hua Yulu unfolded the golden scroll and read out the succession edict aloud:

"The widow is favored by the heavens, the spirit of the ancestors, the British father and the virtuous mother are at your side. Now all the civil and military officials and the people are invited to come in. I respect the widow as the lord of the Yue country, and the Lord of the Yue country."

"Following everyone's request, on the 63th day of the fifth month in the [-]rd year of the Yue Kingdom, I made a sacrifice to heaven and earth, and then it was located in the inner hall, along the Yuan Guangxian."

"Send a letter to the country, announce it to the world, and let the envoys hear about it."

……

The succession ceremony lasted for two days.

One day, he followed the etiquette in the palace, worshiped the heaven and the earth, and announced his succession.

One day worshiped the ancestral hall, climbed up and down the mountain to consecrate Zen, hundreds of courtiers all wore crown clothes, followed behind, and knelt down to worship. ".

After two days of tossing, Baiguan and the young Hua Yulu took three days of rest to relieve their fatigue.

Ye Qiufeng felt even more tired. Her ankles were swollen and fat. Hua Muyu was gentle again. She massaged her ankles to reduce the swelling, but after pressing for a while, she lost her patience and groped onto her body from below. Pulling off the nightgown, he rubbed his side face against her shoulder skin-to-skin.

"Wait to go to court tomorrow and see if the courtiers agree to cancel the crown clothes. It's too heavy, heavy and hot, and you are quite cool."

"I want to take a bath. After two days of exhaustion, I feel that my body is rotten. After two days of washing, I still smell of sweat. Let's go back to Jingling Palace. People come to find my father to drink tea and chat all day long. There are too many men. convenient."

Ye Qiufeng raised his eyes to look at the window, and pulled back his nightgown. There was only a bra inside, so as not to be seen by others.

"It's so small, are you afraid of being seen?"

"???" Ye Qiufeng was confused:

"No matter how small you are, there are."

"It's as if it's there or not." Hua Muyu played with her fingers twice.

"...It seems like you are very big."

Ye Qiufeng's gnashing of teeth soon turned into grinning caused by the pain after his ears were twisted twice.

"Again? Have you seen bigger ones?"

"No, I haven't seen it."

……

It was the first time for Hua Yulu to go to the morning court, holding hands with Ye Qiufeng and walking inside, feeling a little happy and novel.

The courtiers sat behind the table in the center and smiled respectfully when they saw Hua Yulu.

"Sit down to listen to the government, let's stop the morning ceremony, let's start." Hua Muyu presided over, propped his chin to the side, and aimed at Ye Qiufeng who was sitting opposite.

"A ship from the Silla Kingdom came from Ninghai Bay, and the person was temporarily detained by the Ship Supervision Department. He said that the Bohai Sea region wanted to be independent, and came to the Central Plains to seek reinforcements to quell the chaos."

"Coincidentally, my Dushui Supervisor also seized a boat in Mingzhou that claimed to be from Bohai, claiming that it was here to seek the jade certificate granted by the Shang Kingdom of the Central Plains and establish the Bohai Kingdom."

"My country of Yue is also a vassal country, why would you come to my country of Yue to seek reinforcements and grant jade books?"

"Shang Kingdom is deeply involved in the war with Khitan, and intends to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. Among the more than ten vassal states, only our Yue Kingdom has never stopped offering offerings year after year. The country of Han can only be called the Northern Han Kingdom and the Southern Han Kingdom now, and the Southern Han Kingdom, aiming at the Indochina Peninsula (Vietnam and its southwest area), has long been proclaimed emperor, and the upper kingdom is unable to deal with it. It's a mess, maybe I have been to the Central Plains, but I can't see the emperor."

"Since ancient times, the land of the Central Plains has been united for a long time, and divided for a long time. The ambition of the emperors of all dynasties has been to compete for the Central Plains. I am afraid that the State of Wu is already ready to move. Taking advantage of the Northern Expedition of the State, Wu State has this ambition."

"Just don't go south. The Khitans send millions of troops every now and then, and all the people are soldiers. I hope the Shang Kingdom can regain the Youyun and defend the loess of the Central Plains. If the Khitans take over the Central Plains, it will be a more tragic disaster than it is now."

"If Shangguo has no time to pay attention to Silla and Bohai, it should be possible for me to grant it to Yueguo. In this way, I can still declare the prestige of my Yueguo, which is better than the common people always remembering the shame of losing Suzhou and Huzhou."

"Seconded!"

"In view of the fact that there are only three counties left in Suzhou, Jiaxing, Huating, and Haiyan, we merged and established a new Jiazhou. Jiazhou will be used as an important military town to strictly prevent the Wu Kingdom from invading."

"Boom..."

While discussing politics, the ground under his feet suddenly began to shake, and then, thick dust continued to fall from the top of his head, and Zhu Wa fell down with a thud.

The courtiers raised their eyes to look at the roof of the palace, and quickly realized that they ran away.

"Earthquake! Run!"

Ye Qiufeng quickly picked up Yulu, and dragged Hua Muyu to run outside the hall.

The shaking of the ground was so sudden and violent that the shaking person couldn't stand still. As soon as he ran out of the inner hall, he saw a huge rumbling sound from the inner hall, and the roof of the palace collapsed.

The wall made a weird sound and cracked huge cracks, and the huge cracks were still spreading and cracking, and the thick dust was blowing up wantonly, covering the sky and covering the field.

"Woohoo, since ancient times, when has there been an earthquake in our country of Yue?"

Ye Qiufeng stared at the surrounding palaces, which were crumbling one by one, and finally collapsed.

"Ninety-two, Bao Huang, is this what you mean?"
