King Rui stared wide-eyed, obviously unwilling to die.

As the sixth son of the orthodox emperor, he was smart and quick-witted since he was a child, and was often praised by his father.

Originally wanted to compete with Zhao Mu for the throne, but in the end, there were successive palace changes. Emperor Longqing and Emperor Tianshun appeared in turn, so they could only grind their teeth and claws to wait for the right time.

Emperor Tianshun passed away unexpectedly tonight and was childless. King Rui thought it was a golden opportunity.

So he summoned the dead to attack the palace ban, intending to hijack all the officials to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, but he didn't even enter the palace gate, and he became a dead soul under the sword.

If you spend your whole life figuring things out and making no sound, you might as well be a wealthy prince!

"Thank you for your hard work, Aiqing, for eradicating the traitor."

Concubine Shu gently caressed the baby and coaxed him to stop crying. This is where she will rely on her power in the future: "This palace... the Ai family often listens to the late emperor's praise. Aiqing is loyal to the country, and it is true!"

Marshal Xie kowtowed and said: "Chen, I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager is a thousand years old."

Wow!

All the officials in the palace were surprised, how could this barbarian be more thick-skinned than Tang and Zeng?

Someone wanted to refute aloud, glanced at the head on the ground, and looked at the shadowy soldiers outside the hall, not daring to be the first bird.

Arguing with the old man for a few words will at most lose his official position.

Reasoning with the martial artist and the barbarian is likely to go in with a white knife and out with a red knife.

"Okay, okay."

The Empress Dowager tried her best to hold back her joy, but she couldn't laugh out loud in front of the late emperor's corpse, and said: "Xie Aiqing, get up quickly, I'm sorry for the poor family, and I still need to rely on Aiqing to rule the country in the future."

The voice just fell.

He Shangshu of the Household Department fell to his knees, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times: "My lord, I pay my respects to Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager!"

old fox!

Tang Mingyuan cursed secretly, let this guy share the merit of supporting him for nothing, and knelt down to pay respects.

All the officials looked at each other, their eyes were full of bitterness, and it was impossible to deny the matter now, and they scrambled to admit the baby as the new king.

Sitting on the couch, the queen mother looked at the hundreds of officials kneeling down, and couldn't help feeling a little proud.

"Everyone loves you in peace."

After all the ministers stood up one by one, they said again: "Your Majesty is a newborn, the name will be taken by the clan's mansion, how about the year names for all the lovers?"

The officials discussed in low voices for a while, then Tang Mingyuan stepped forward and said.

"Those who are prosperous, those who live in peace and happiness, those who are prosperous, those who are beautiful and prosperous, the word Taichang is advisable!"

"Very good."

The Empress Dowager hugged Emperor Taichang tightly, stood up and said, "Your Majesty is tired, and the Queen's affairs will be handled by Tang Aiqing, Xie Aiqing, and Xu Aiqing together."

"Follow the order."

Tang Mingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Anyone who was contaminated with imperial power would be transformed.

Concubine Shu is the most beautiful concubine in the harem. She has never had any rumors of scheming and power. Now she uses the funeral of the former emperor to balance the situation in the court.

The method is very immature, but very useful!

The Ministry of Officials is very important. If the Empress Dowager can pull Mr. Xu under her command, she will no longer have a reputation in vain.

"History is indeed a circle."

Emperor Tianshun has just been dealt with, and now he has become the queen mother to take power. Even if this woman is dealt with, there will be others in the future.

Tang Mingyuan only felt exhausted.

...

Enzehou Mansion.

Main hall.

Eunuch Wu paced back and forth, his expression uncertain.

Emperor Tianshun's sudden death broke up all plans. First of all, the emperor's son was not born yet, and even if he was born, he would be too young.

Secondly, he failed to completely win Dongchang, and did not have enough power to support his son's ascension to the throne.

"Lord Hou, Lord Hou..."

Gan'er, who had gone out to inquire about the news, ran in and reported out of breath: "The new king has been appointed, the first emperor's son, and Concubine Shu is the regent queen mother!"

Eunuch Wu said in surprise, "Really?"

"The news is not hidden, it has already spread throughout the palace."

Gan'er said: "It is said that the first emperor's son was born only an hour ago, and was jointly supported by Mr. Tang Ge and Mr. Xie. He even took the year name."

"Okay!"

Eunuch Wu repeatedly applauded, who would have thought that the sky would follow the wishes of others, and the ultimate goal would be achieved by accident.

"Our family is the ultimate winner."

He waved his hands to retreat, took out the jade pendant from his cuff, and said quietly: "Old ancestor, the great merchant has successfully restored the country, and you have the face to meet your ancestors."

The jade pendant buzzed and vibrated, and a voice came from it.

"The old man eats incense and burns from the big merchants, and his spirit is already extraordinary, and he is far away from death."

"The jade pendant is broken?"

Eunuch Wu circulated his true energy and crushed a corner of the jade pendant, and there was a shrill scream from inside.

"what you up to?"

"Our family will give the ancestor a ride."

While Eunuch Wu was speaking, ignoring the old ancestor's cursing, he broke the jade pendant by the waist: "From then on, there is no longer any great merchant blood, only Emperor Daqing!"

Strands of remnant souls emerged from the broken jade, condensing into half-empty and half-real grimaces.

The strong scent of incense wrapped the ghost face, but the breeze blew by, and the scent of incense quickly drifted away, pulling the ghost face into a hideous and terrifying shape.

"You are an unfilial descendant, you are a waste of the old man's trust, and you dare to betray your ancestors."

"The great merchant is long dead!"

Eunuch Wu said: "The ancestors always said that restoring the country is their duty, but our family has never thought about restoring the country. Let the child feel at ease and be an emperor."

"Jie jie jie..."

The grimace screamed harshly, and mocked: "You think the emperor is your son? The old man has already checked, and the woman is pregnant with a princess."

Eunuch Wu retorted: "How can the princess inherit the throne?"

"What do you say?"

Most of the grimaces have disappeared, and before the soul flies away, he said: "Unfortunate people, all the tricks are exhausted, and the old man is waiting for you below."

"Old Ancestor, this junior is wrong, you..."

Eunuch Wu reached out to grab the grimace, and it dissipated like a cloud of fog, without any trace of breath.

After being stunned for a long time, he finally came back to his senses.

"The duke is so good at scheming, our family is not wronged!"

Dugong Zhou is the only person in Daqing who has the ability to secretly replace the prince. No wonder Mr. Tang Ge and Marshal Xie gave their full support. I am afraid that an agreement has already been secretly reached.

"Our family has to leave. With the Dugong's temperament, the account must be turned over later."

Eunuch Wu was packing up the gold, silver and jewels. He had just walked into the yard when he saw Gan'er who had just inquired about the news, and led dozens of Tiqi into the back house.

The chief servant said: "Your Majesty, the Dugong has a request, let's go."

Eunuch Wu spread out the package and sprinkled it on the ground with a splash. The gold and silver were shining brightly, let alone a few thousand taels.

"Father-in-law, let our family live. This is just money to buy the way. Our family also has several secret vaults, with millions of gold and silver, all of which are counted as money for life!"

"Our family loves gold."

Fu Gonggong bent down to pick up the gold ingot, wiped the dust and stuffed it into his cuff, and changed his voice.

"But our family is even more afraid of death. Why are you standing still and not arresting people?"

Tiqi ordered to surround Mr. Wu.

In order to keep his body light and healthy, Eunuch Wu did not practice the Epiphyllum Book of Epiphyllum in order to inherit the blood of the great merchant royal family. In terms of martial arts, he is no match for Tiqi.

After half an hour.

East Factory Dungeon.

Eunuch Wu knelt on the ground with his hair tied up, his hair disheveled and he was quite embarrassed.

Dugong Zhou blew on the heat of the tea, tasted it leisurely, and said with a smile.

"Master Hou, if you have any last words, just say them, and our family will convey them to you."

Eunuch Wu was silent. He really wanted to ask where his daughter was, but he didn't dare. Bearing the name of the princess, the daughter may still live, but once her identity is revealed, she will undoubtedly die.

Zhou Yi waved his hand: "Pull it down, do it decently."

After a while.

The autopsy officer came in and reported in a low voice: "Duke, Enzehou has never been to the clean room."

"Huh?"

Zhou Yi's thoughts turned, and he had a vague guess in his heart, so he couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing.

"It's fun!"
