When the ministers received the news and gathered at the Jinluan Hall, they were surprised to find that the emperor had been washed and put on his shroud. At that time, no one was suspicious.

Because the disease of sudden death is real.

Moreover, the emperor's appearance is very appropriate and will not arouse any thoughts at all.

But there was one person who felt something was wrong, and that was Hao Yuan. No one knew that he had been here before the emperor died. Maybe the palace maids and eunuchs knew, but they didn't take it seriously. No one asked, so naturally

No need to say it.

Hao Yuan was shocked, because he was still fine when he left, but the emperor passed away less than an hour after leaving. From the time he found out to the time when the eunuchs summoned the ministers to attack, it probably took more than half an hour. In other words,

As soon as he left and the prince entered, the emperor died.

It was as if the emperor was holding on to see the prince one last time.

But when he left, the emperor was clearly discussing his great talents and strategies.

Suddenly a terrible thought came out of Hao Yuan's heart. He glanced at the prince, his lips began to turn purple, and he began to tremble. This trembling soon spread to the whole body, so that his legs could not move at all.

The weight supporting the upper body fell straight down like a lighthouse.

Perhaps it was God's favor that his coma indirectly saved his life. Xue Renguo was so excited and guilty that he did not notice him. He also had no chance to express any emotion or question. The funeral was held in such an orderly manner.

Start in a sequential environment.

Hao Yuan was so grief-stricken that she fainted, and was highly praised by Xue Renguo. He did not want to praise his political opponent, but he still had to make a gesture to relieve his complicated psychological pressure.

But the subsequent faint move inadvertently caused a trace of doubt in the originally calm hearts of the ministers. Yao Hui suddenly stood up and shouted in the midst of mournful cries: "My lords, now that Qin Hu's army is pressing on the border, the country cannot do anything.

There is no king for a day. The emperor's heroic spirit is not far away, so the prince should be succeeded immediately. What do you think?"

Xue Renyue was in pain. His whole body was shaken when he heard this, but he did not speak. At this moment, he knew that he had lost the opportunity and had already given up the idea of ​​fighting for the throne.

But Yao Hui was not soliciting the opinions of the ministers at all, but shouted loudly: "The enthronement ceremony will be held immediately, and the throne will be succeeded in front of the coffin. I respectfully invite the crown prince to assume the throne of emperor."

The ministers did not want to object at first, and prepared some words of praise, but Yao Hui did not even give them a chance to complete the formality, which made them shocked and suspicious.

The so-called enthronement ceremony is just a simple process, because the funeral of the old emperor has not yet been held. The ministers just slapped the new emperor on his head and recognized his legal status, and that was it. As for whether it will be replaced in the future,

That varies from person to person.

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

Xue Renguo wore mourning clothes and ascended the throne to accept the congratulations from the ministers. He was finally satisfied and felt a sense of security, but he suddenly found that he was not as happy as he had imagined.

Not only was he unhappy, he was also very irritable, as if someone had lit a fire in his heart and it was burning. At this moment, he seemed to understand that not everyone was named Yang Shou, and not everyone had the psychological quality of patricide. This hot fire

The chair almost cost him a psychological breakdown.

"Come here, take Xue Renyue."

Xue Renyue didn't understand what Xue Renguo meant, but Xue Renguo quickly made him understand, as fast as lightning: "My father is very lonely down here alone. As my son, I have state affairs to deal with, so you can go down and accompany me."

Father, please show your filial piety for me."

Yao Hui was stunned for a moment, wondering how there could be such a big reversal. Even if he had to settle accounts and eradicate the threat, it would not be so fast.

But his response was still very quick: "If you come, give me Bai Ling."

Xue Renyue blinked twice strangely: "Brother, Your Majesty, why are you joking?"

"You have no joke, no one is joking with you, the warrior comes forward and gives you the whole body."

Several warriors carried out the orders very thoroughly. They went directly to hold down Prince Xue Renyue and strangled Xue Renyue alive in the main hall in front of the dead body of the old emperor and in front of all the civil and military ministers of the dynasty.

Xue Renyue struggled desperately, like a rooster with its head cut off, but he could not escape the control no matter what, his legs twitched and stopped moving.

With his eyes wide open, he stretched out his right hand and stared at Xue Renguo, shouting two words: "Brother——"

Xue Renguo yelled: "Why are you shouting? Do you want to be unfilial? You deserved to die, there is nothing to be unwilling to do. Someone, pull me down and wait to be sent to the burial pit."

Xue Renguo went crazy. He wanted to fill the biggest flaw in his heart, but he didn't know why he wanted to kill Xue Renyue. He could only feel that he was uncomfortable, and his intuition told him that doing so could heal the trauma.

Strangely enough, the flaw is really much smaller, as if it was covered by a rag.

"My dear friends, I killed my younger brother to honor my father. I am extremely filial. I believe that my father can rest in peace even if he is under the Nine Springs."

Those ministers were all frightened, and now they are dumbfounded. Why is there such a reason in the world to take their own sons to be buried?

Can killing his son in front of his recently deceased father make him smile?

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, you just killed the second prince and said he was buried as a sacrificial martyrdom. Do you have any explicit edict from the late emperor?" At this time, a civil servant suddenly came out.

This person's name is Zhang Hong, and he is a representative figure of the Hexi School. Although he is not in a high position, he has a profound influence in the academic world and is a spiritual leader.

"There is no clear edict, just some filial piety. Don't you rotten scholars respect filial piety the most? Then write me a poem to praise my merits."

"I can't praise this meritorious service enough." Zhang Hong's beard and hair stood out in anger: "Such evil deeds that corrupt people and disrupt moral traditions. If someone praises the merits and causes others to follow suit, and the order of the world is corrupted, the emperor, ministers, father and son must kill them first in order to avoid being killed.

Others: An old father is worried about his young son before he dies, so he doesn't dare to die. If there are many brothers, only one will be killed."

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, how does this relate to my Confucian school?"

"The connection is that I don't know, because I am not a member of the Confucian school. If you want to find out, then ask Master Kong. Someone will come and send Master Zhang on his way."

"According to the decree."

Immediately, Yao Hui led several guards and walked up to Zhang Hong. Without hesitation, he stabbed his chest with a knife, and then chopped off his head.

"Being buried in the Confucius Temple fulfills Mr. Zhang's wish. This is called seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence. It must be said that I am a sage monarch with the beauty of an adult."
