After dawn!

Xiong Yue summoned all officials to the palace to offer sorrow to the emperor!

All officials dare not come, otherwise they will lose their status and be a crime of great disloyalty.

Although the princes were afraid, they also had to be present.

Because this is not a simple sacrifice, but also the final battle for the throne.

If you don’t go, you will give up your power voluntarily.

From then on, he withdrew from the Dazhou Power Center.

The bell of mourning in the palace rang.

The whole of Chang'an immediately fell into a sad atmosphere.

The original tension was also covered.

Everyone faced the palace.

Silently offering sacrifices.

Feeling in the various major and minor affairs that the emperor has ascended the throne.

All officials came to Zhuque Street one after another.

The palace gate is wide open.

The soldiers lined up with white cloth strips tied to their arms and weapons.

His expression was solemn and his eyes were cold.

Before entering the palace, everyone also carried white cloth, wrapped around their heads and tied around their waists.

The three dukes and nine ministers still have to wear mourning clothes and wear white clothes.

Never think it is an insult to them.

Don’t think that only Ye Zhen’s son needs to wear mourning clothes.

You should know that Ye Zhen is the emperor, and it is honor to give the emperor a mourning manner.

You need to have a certain identity.

No ordinary ministers are treated like this.

Soon all officials arrived at the place where the emperor's body was ceremonialized at the palace gate.

The queen is present and General Annan is in charge of the overall situation.

The memorial sacrifice to Emperor Ye Zhen began.

The ceremony, which originally took two hours, was cut to less than half an hour.

Queen Xiong Yue is also afraid of long nights and many dreams.

So try to keep it simple.

Of course this is just a mourning sacrifice.

It is not a burial, so the procedure can be simple or traditional.

All officials also don’t want to waste their energy here.

Everyone's energy is focused on competing for the position.

"The country cannot be without a master for a day. Now that Your Majesty's death suddenly, no will be left, and the officials need to discuss it. Now he will be moved to the Tai Chi Hall to discuss the major events!"

Zhang Rang received the words of Queen Xiong Yue, and sang aloud.

Then Xiong Yue took the lead in going to Tai Chi Hall.

All the officials followed behind and started to discuss privately.

"Your Majesty did not leave a will. Is this too suspicious?"

"It is hard to say that Your Majesty is in his prime and his death suddenly and no will is left."

"It seems that Empress Xiong Yue is fair. If he forged a will in private and made the King of Chu the emperor, who would have fought for it?"

"Justice, why did Zhengzheng send troops to take over the city defense, why did he attack Nancheng? Why didn't he see two masters in the country, Ye Qiu and Cao Cao, appear? I think it's probably because the queen wanted to force the King of Chu!"

"That's right, the most powerful King Xiaoyao is dead now. The King of Xiliang, who is most likely to inherit the throne, has not returned to the capital. The Marquis of Hongnong, who is supported by a noble family, is far away in Hongnong County.

There are only three people in the capital, namely Fufeng County Prince, Luoyang County Prince and Wucheng County Prince."

"Only the three of them, Fufeng King is capable of fighting, but you know the bones of civil servants, but they are not so tough. Most of them have been attracted by the queen long ago.

Otherwise, where would the queen get the confidence, and dare to discuss it in court."

"Si, there is really a possibility. It's over. This is a conspiracy!"

"I just realized now that you are so confused. Your Majesty's death is still doubtful. The Great Zhou is worried!"

Speaking of Ye Zhen's death.

Everyone's faces were solemn.

Everyone became worried.

"The queen dares to kill someone!"

A loyal and upright minister said with a strong gritted teeth.

"It's hard to say, Mr. Huang, you shouldn't force yourself to stand out, after all, it's not worth it!"

Not worth it!

The white-haired old man was stunned.

Then you will understand the other person's meaning.

If King Xiliang or King Xiaoyao is here, you can compete for it.

Like Ye Tao and others, it is a bit of a bad idea.

There is no need to take care of yourself for the sake of the few of them.

"Hmph, no matter what the reason, loyalty means loyalty, disloyalty means disloyalty, regicide is regicide. There is still someone named Huang in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so you can't do anything randomly!"

Old Huang lives with a crutch, a hunched body, a slow gait, and always walking alone, but it emits the light of justice, which makes people dare not get close to it.

Only Dong Huang stepped forward to support Mr. Huang.

Mr. Huang glanced at Dong Huang and snorted coldly: "Meng Gao, you are not a wise minister. Why don't you protect the Xiaoyao King and let the late emperor send him to Hanzhong? If you do your best and do some personnel, you will not let the court be in disarray and make the Chu Yue Kingdom bigger!"

sweat!

Dong Huang sweats violently!

Mr. Huang, you are really not afraid of death.

Today I want to sacrifice to Xuanyuan blood.

"Old Huang, some things cannot be changed by manpower!"

Dong Huang advised.

Under the general trend, everyone will bow their heads.

"Hmph, things are caused by people, and people conquer nature. I... don't believe in fate!"

After saying that, Huang Lao shook Dong Huang's hand and stepped forward alone.

…………

Outside the southern city of Chang'an!

Ye Qing and others were wearing casual clothes, and everyone was disguised and then rode their horses to the scene.

But the city gate is closed.

"Who dares to approach the city gate and kill you without mercy!"

Ye Qing and others were forced to stop by arrows shot from the city.

Ye Qing signaled Zhang Sanfeng beside him.

Zhang Sanfeng said: "I wonder which part of the defenders in the city is. We are ordered to return to the city to work. Please be kind to the rules!"

The defenders on the city heard that they were back to the city to do business, so they did not have such great hostility.

He replied: "We are the Tiger Guards. Now Chang'an has been closed down. You can't enter the city. Find a place to rest and go to the city after it is unblocked!"

Tiger Guards!

Ye Qing and others laughed.

As long as it is not another unit, it's easy to say.

The Tiger Guards are closest to Xiaoyao Mansion.

Especially the cavalry of the Tiger Guard and the leader Qin Hu.
