The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Thirteen civil and military ministers gathered together, and after discussing for a while, they all focused on Li Mingchong.

Zhongyong Hou Zhang Jinfu's temperament is relatively "impatient", mainly because he is a stage director, he did not act in this big play, and now he has finally caught the opportunity, so he asked eagerly: "Master Li, why did your majesty summon me here? What's the matter? Everyone is here, can you reveal it?"

Everyone nodded.

Li Mingchong sighed, and said solemnly: "My lords, I am here to announce a very sad and shocking news... Your Majesty was assassinated by an assassin and died of serious injuries. The crown prince was also poisoned by an assassin. He died today."

"What?"

bang bang...

The twelve people were so shocked that they stood up one after another, looking at each other with horror.

"Lord Li, this matter is no small matter, are you sure?" Ye Xiu, the governor of the Chinese military governor's mansion, asked in a deep voice.

"Is this officer having auditory hallucinations? Master Li, this is not a joke!" Cheng Ming, a bachelor, said.

"Assassins? What does Zhuge Yuanba do? Eat shit? How did assassins come in such a heavily guarded palace!" Zhongyong Hou Zhang Jinfu roared, feeling very comfortable after shouting, and finally took the opportunity to insult Zhuge Yuanba , so cool. If you can't beat him, you can finally scold him!

Li Ming pressed his hand to make everyone quiet, and he said in a deep voice: "Even if I have ten heads, I dare not spread these words. Your Majesty was assassinated by a female official hiding beside His Royal Highness, and that female official was Ming Uncle Yi's daughter has no problem with her background, but unexpectedly she is an assassin with high martial arts skills, that's why she got her way..."

After Li Mingchong narrated the cause and effect, he continued: "If you don't believe me, I have invited the Supervisor of Rituals to take charge of Eunuch Hai. In addition, Prince Zhou is also in the palace, so he can confirm this. His Majesty is really dead, and the Crown Prince is also dead. dead."

While speaking, Hai Dafu walked in with the imperial decree in his hand, and said solemnly: "What Mr. Li said is the truth, all ministers, please mourn."

Even Hai Dafu said so, how could it be false?

There was a sudden silence in the pavilion, and Lord Ye Xiu slumped on the chair with his feet limp, his head was instantly numb.

Although people suffer from birth, old age, sickness and death, His Majesty's body is still in good health.

In this quiet atmosphere, Li Mingchong continued: "Your Majesty passed away, and the crown prince died, but the Great Xia must not be chaotic. After discussing with Lord Zhou, I informed the empress, and the empress ordered me to take out your majesty's will! "

Everyone quickly returned to their senses.

That's right, His Majesty passed away, and the crown prince passed away, so who is the new emperor?

This is the purpose of calling them here!

Li Mingchong looked at Hai Dafu, and Hai Dafu held the imperial decree in his hand and shouted: "Here is your majesty's will, and Xiao Yan, the king of the Tang Dynasty, will inherit the throne!"

Li Mingchong said: "The purpose of summoning the ministers now is to report this matter. All of you here are important ministers in the court. The new emperor's enthronement requires us to make preparations, so..."

Before Li Mingchong finished speaking, Yang Feiyuan immediately shouted: "Lord Li, wait a minute! Did I hear wrongly? Who will be appointed as the new king? His Royal Highness Tang Wang? Are you kidding me! The eldest son Jin Wang is still here, so why is it Tang Tang's turn?" Moreover, His Majesty was assassinated, and the Crown Prince had already been established before the assassination, how could there be a will left, I doubt the authenticity of the will!"

"Lord Li, I am also skeptical!" Huo Xingye, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Shang Jin, a senior scholar, expressed their objections.

Sure enough, many people were dissatisfied with letting King Tang take the throne.

"Hahaha…"

At this moment, Duke Jing, who had always kept a low profile, suddenly laughed, and asked, "My lords, here is the will. Your Majesty has appointed the king of Tang to inherit the throne. Are you going to resist the order?"

Yang Feiyuan turned to Duke Jing, and said in a cold voice: "Since ancient times, there have been no heirs, this is the rule! There are five princes above Tang Wang, even if they are arranged according to their age, it is not his turn! Besides, Tang Wang is messing around, and he doesn't do anything. See Look at what he has done? Just know how to write, such a character can inherit the great rule and manage the country well?"

Lord Jingguo sneered, "So Lord Yang wants to resist the order? Lord Li, what is the crime of resisting the order?"

Yang Feiyuan shouted: "Don't scare me with the accusation of resisting the decree. I didn't scare you. I absolutely don't believe that His Majesty will make this will! My lords, do you believe it?"

Shang Jin's grandson-in-law is Xiao Jing, so he naturally wants to object at this moment.

Huo Xingye also shook his head in objection.

As for Shang Jin, Cheng Ming and Zhang Jinfu, they looked down at the ground and remained silent.

In the Mansion of the Commanders of the Five Armies, Ye Xiu was shocked by the news of His Majesty's death, and took care of it flawlessly. Among the other four governors, the commanders of the left and right armies Zhang Yingqi and Zang Haichuan remained silent, while Ma Yiwen and Xuerongtang shook their heads in disbelief.

Lord Jingguo had been preparing for so long, and his grand plan could be accomplished. How could he allow these officials to object? He clasped his fists and raised his arms to the sky, and shouted: "Your Majesty left a will, so it is natural that His Majesty has a far-sighted vision. As a subject, if you refuse to obey the edict, you are treasonous. Li My lord, now that the imperial decree is here, what we should do is to directly announce the will. I heard that the six princes have also entered the palace and are being closely guarded by the imperial army. It is time for them to know the truth. Great Xia is now on the verge of turmoil, and it will not last long. Delay, the new king must be enthroned as soon as possible. If anyone resists the decree, the soldiers of the Northwest Camp who enter the city will do the work of the king and wipe out the rebels who resist the decree!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's face changed drastically.

Li Ming took a deep look at Lord Yasukuni, it really was your fault!

Yang Feiyuan looked horrified, pointed at Duke Jing and shouted: "The Northwest camp has already entered the city? Wu Anbang, why do you know all this?"

The real name of Yasukuni is Wu Anbang.

"Your Majesty is far-sighted, and once mentioned to me that if something happens to him and the crown prince, he will make Tang Wang the heir apparent. Does this official know that there is something wrong with all of this?" Duke Jing said coldly.

And just after he finished speaking, Queen Zhou Xiangyun walked in.

Seeing the Queen coming, everyone hurriedly saluted.

Yang Feiyuan immediately said: "Please ask your mother to be the master. Your Majesty died. How could it be possible to make the Ninth Prince the crown prince? There must be something wrong with it. Please check it out!"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiangyun snorted coldly, and shouted: "Presumptuous! Your majesty's will is here, and this palace can also testify. How can you allow Yang Feiyuan to frame you. Why can't you make the Tang king the new emperor? The seventh prince Xiao Rui can be the prince, why can't the Tang king become the new prince?" Emperor? Yang Feiyuan, who doesn't know your relationship with King Jin, if you continue to argue unreasonably, don't blame me for being ruthless, where is Zhuge Yuanba?"

"The last general is here!" Zhuge Yuanba led the forbidden army to follow outside the house.

"Whoever resists the order will be shot to death!" Zhou Xiangyun roared domineeringly.

Yang Feiyuan staggered, seeing Zhou Xiangyun and Duke Jing standing aside, he immediately understood. Based on the conflict between the queen and the imperial concubine, the queen will never let King Jin ascend the throne.

Those who supported the other princes also had expressions on their faces. They could also see that the queen supported the king of Tang. Not only the queen, but also Li Mingchong and the king of Zhou were bound to choose the king of Tang!

King Tang is on the throne, and it is a certainty. If he resists, it will really be a dead end!

Li Mingchong coughed and asked: "Your Majesty's will is here, do you have any objections?"

Twelve remained silent.

Li Mingchong said: "Since there is no objection, let's follow me to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Lord Zhou is explaining the situation to the six princes. As subjects, we have no objection now. We hope to keep our voices the same when we arrive at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, otherwise... "

Zhou Xiangyun answered, "Otherwise, don't blame me for destroying the nine clans on the charge of disrupting the court!"

After finishing speaking, Empress Zhou Xiangyun threw up her sleeves and left. Duke Jingguo laughed out loud, followed by Li Mingchong and Hai Dafu, and lastly, the civil and military ministers.

It's just that their complexions were very bad. They never expected that such a big thing would happen during the blockade of Miyagi in the past few days. They missed the opportunity and let Duke Jing and the Queen seize the opportunity and push King Tang to the throne in one fell swoop!

It's too late to regret.

...

Li Mingchong is in charge of the Longyuan Pavilion, and Xiao Mingying is naturally in charge of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Whether this scene is played or not, it is known who is the messenger, but the purpose of continuing to play is to let Yasukuni take the initiative to expose. In the same way, Xiao Mingying's testing of the six princes was actually testing Xiao Yan to see if he knew. This is also what Xiao Rui meant, Xiao Rui wanted to see how his good brother behaved.

What needs to be mentioned is that Xiao Rui agreed to let Yan Xiaoxiao contact the female officer next to the queen, and Yan Xiaoxiao did not disappoint Xiao Rui. She even managed to win over the caring female officer next to the queen.

Facing Yan Xiaoxiao, the female official revealed the situation, and the queen did ask her to send a letter to Concubine De.

Defei...

Xiao Yan's mother and concubine, the daughter of Lord Jingguo.

Although Xiao Rui had guessed it a long time ago, he couldn't help but sigh after confirming it. This concubine De, who was born as a female official, has both talent and appearance, is extremely intelligent, and has great ambitions. She also wants her son to sit on the throne.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the six princes sat for a while, and Zhou Wang Xiao Mingying walked in with steady steps.

The six princes stood up and cupped their hands, Xiao Mingying waved his hands to let everyone sit down, Xiao Mingying said in a deep voice: "This time you are urgently called into the palace, there is an important event to be announced, it is about His Majesty and the Crown Prince."

As soon as the six people heard this, they immediately sat upright. These days, civil and military officials have secretly discussed what happened in the palace, and now they can finally see the outcome.

"Uncle Huang, is my seventh brother recovering from his illness?" Xiao Yan asked immediately, with worry on his face.

Wu Wang Xiao Ze comforted: "Ninth Brother, don't worry, listen to Uncle Huang."

Xiao Mingying took a deep look at Xiao Yan, and then said: "The next thing I say may be very powerful, you must be mentally prepared. Three days ago, His Majesty was assassinated and passed away, and the crown prince was also poisoned."

After listening to this, the six people looked in disbelief, and then looked at each other, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

"Uncle Huang, what did you say?" Xiao Jing asked again.

Xiao Mingying repeated: "Your Majesty has passed away, and the crown prince has passed away."

The six people all stood up, yet to react from the shock.

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! How could Emperor Father and Seventh Brother die? Absolutely impossible!" Xiao Yan roared, and was about to rush out, but was stopped by the guards outside.

"Go away, anyone who stops me, I'll kill him! I'm going to go to Father Emperor and Seventh Brother!" Xiao Yanhong roared angrily.

Xiao Mingying scolded: "Prince Tang, don't mess around! Now is not the time for you to mess around! The country cannot be without a king for a day, your majesty is dead, and the prince is dead. The new emperor must inherit the great rule as soon as possible, and the Great Xia cannot be chaotic!"

As soon as these words came out, the few people who were still in shock suddenly woke up, yes, the throne! The throne is now unowned!

But Xiao Yan insisted on running out, he shouted: "What new emperor, it's none of my business, I don't believe it, I want to see father and seventh brother with my own eyes! What you said is false!"

Xiao Mingying waved his hand, the imperial guards directly pressed Xiao Yan, no matter how he struggled, he was not allowed to run out.

On the other hand, the other five princes, Xiao Ze sat slumped on the chair with a mournful expression, as if he did not expect the death of his father and prince.

As for Xiao Lie, Xiao Feng, Xiao Ming and Xiao Jing, the four of them looked at each other, their sad expressions were already dispelled by the temptation of belonging to the throne.

Xiao Lie is the eldest son, at this moment, he hastily asked: "Uncle Huang, how did you decide on the candidate for the new emperor?"

"Yes!" Xiao Feng also said eagerly, at this moment Xiao Feng was the happiest in his heart, Xiao Rui actually died, did he just die like this? What a bargain for him!

Now that His Majesty and the Crown Prince are both dead, he will not accept whoever sits on the throne, so he will grab it! The throne must be occupied by those who can!

Looking at the eager eyes of these four people, Xiao Mingying secretly sighed, sure enough, in front of the throne, even if her father died, she couldn't care less about sadness, this is the desolation of being in the royal family.
