Only seven days left to live? She goes crazy and kills
Chapter 69: You can know a person’s face but not his heart
Emperor Wu Lie was stunned by her words. He obviously didn't expect that she would be so decisive, and he seemed to have been mentally prepared for it.
At the same time, he was also confused: "Didn't you always have a good relationship with King Jing before? I thought you would choose him."
Yan Donghuang lowered his eyes, and there was a cold look in his eyes: "My son has been on the battlefield all year round, and I don't fully understand him. The so-called goodness may only be superficial."
Emperor Wu Lie's eyes darkened slightly: "Did he do something he shouldn't have done?"
Yan Donghuang shook his head: "I just don't have enough time to understand his nature, and I'm not sure whether he can be a good emperor after he takes office, so I don't dare to recommend candidates for the emperor randomly."
"You are right." Emperor Wu Lie nodded slowly, "You know people, faces, but not hearts. There is no harm in being cautious."
"My father has been on the battlefield for many years, and my son has been on the battlefield for many years. I want to personally protect the country that our father and daughter have worked so hard to build." Yan Donghuang's voice was firm, "The seven generals under my son are all brave and good at fighting, and they are loyal to the country. , Sons and ministers must ensure that their skills and loyalty are rewarded and not feared."
"Father, powerful countries are still watching with eager eyes. I cannot allow the Yong Dynasty to face any uncertain risks."
After hearing what she said, Emperor Zhaolie's eyebrows relaxed little by little, and his complexion became much brighter: "You are right, I think so in my heart, but I can't bear the fierce protests of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty like you, a woman. , otherwise...otherwise I will directly issue an edict for you to ascend the throne..."
"Father." Yan Donghuang raised his eyes slightly, "My son and I have nothing to fear."
Emperor Wu Lie looked at her deeply, for a long time, and nodded slowly: "Since you have nothing to fear, then I should have nothing to worry about."
Yan Donghuang clenched his hands, his heart filled with emotions.
Ever since she followed her father to the battlefield, she had always known that his father trusted and valued her, and his appreciation for her had always surpassed that of several princes.
But she never thought that her father would be willing to break the ancestral system and let her succeed to the throne.
When she got the affirmative answer at this time, her mind couldn't help but think of the regrets left before her death in her previous life... Or was it just a big dream?
No matter what the truth is, if this is the opportunity given to her by God, she will never let the villain succeed again.
"Have the seven generals of the Qingluan Army entered the palace?" Emperor Wu Lie asked.
Yan Donghuang nodded: "They are all inside Fengtian Gate."
"Call them over."
Yan Donghuang responded, stood up and left.
Emperor Wu Lie looked at her tall and thin back, with a trace of relief on his face.
Women are born to be taught that men are superior to women. Even though Donghuang has been training with him on the battlefield for many years, he is worried that she still cannot break free from the constraints of being a woman...
This is not her problem, but the perception created by thousands of years of systems and rules.
Donghuang grew up under this system and did not have a good life as a child. It was beyond his expectation that he could develop such ambitions.
It can only be said that the battlefield is indeed a place where people can be reborn.
Emperor Wu Lie ordered: "Rong Chun."
The personal manager came forward and bowed: "My servant is here."
"Study the ink, I want to draft an edict."
"yes."
Emperor Wu Lie stood up from the bed, held the hand of the young eunuch next to him, and staggered towards the imperial cabinet in the outer hall.
Yan Donghuang stepped out of the palace door and raised his eyes to meet the anxiously waiting concubines, princes and more than a dozen important officials in the court.
Prime Minister Pei and Taifu Qi were among them.
"Donghuang, what did Emperor Father tell you?" Yan Ming was the first to ask, with a slight frown on his eyebrows, as if he was worried, "Is Father's dragon body..."
Yan Donghuang looked at him calmly: "Father, I'm fine."
Yan Ming was startled.
Yan Donghuang turned around and ordered: "Rong Ying, go and call all seven generals over."
"yes."
Concubine De stepped forward and looked at Yan Donghuang with a frown: "Donghuang, your face doesn't look good. Did your father say something?"
Yan Donghuang withdrew his hand indifferently: "Father will announce it later."
Concubine De's expression froze, and a look of astonishment flashed across her eyes.
She turned to look at her son. Yan Ming was obviously stunned, wondering why Yan Donghuang suddenly became so cold and distant.
"Your Majesty is currently in poor health. The situation is special. Sister De Concubine does not have to rush to tell Donghuang about the love between mother and daughter." The imperial concubine standing aside saw her deflated, and a look of ridicule passed through the corner of her mouth, "Donghuang is the best. It’s true that the emperor loves you, but the crown prince is a matter of national importance and cannot be decided easily by a woman.”
"It is true that it is not a woman's decision to decide on the crown prince. So the emperor has allowed the imperial concubine's sister to discuss the crown prince's issue?" Concubine De frowned, "Donghuang and I are just mother-daughter friends. Why have we ever asked her to decide on the crown prince? The imperial concubine is too much. Pass--"
"My empresses, your highnesses, and your lords." Rong Chun walked out of the palace and saluted the concubines and princes present. He raised his eyes and glanced at the ministers behind him, "Your Majesty, please come into the palace."
Concubine De was interrupted before she could finish her words. She stopped talking angrily and walked towards the palace.
The queen was implicated by the prince and had just been deposed.
Now the harem is headed by the noble concubine, including Shu concubine, virtuous concubine and virtuous concubine. In addition to them, concubine Jia, concubine Jing and concubine Hui who have the prince in the harem are also summoned.
They all knew that the emperor was seriously ill and had reached a critical moment, and it was imminent to establish the crown prince. Last night, Concubine De invited Yan Donghuang into the palace, handed her two newly made clothes with her own hands, and stayed in her palace for dinner. .
A picture of mother and daughter living in harmony and enjoying themselves.
The imperial concubine was jealous of the fact that Concubine De was on good terms with Yan Donghuang, but she had no way to please Yan Donghuang, so she could only grit her teeth secretly, fearing that Yan Donghuang would speak well of the second prince in front of the emperor, so that the old and confused emperor would pass the throne to Yan Ming.
As the ruler of a country, the emperor trusted a daughter instead of his son.
It was absurd that Yan Donghuang was so respected by him just because she had been on the battlefield with him for many years.
The imperial concubine despised her in her heart. A girl should be dignified, virtuous, gentle and respectful, but Yan Donghuang was brandishing a sword and a gun like a man. How could a princess of a country be like that?
Only the emperor treated her as a treasure.
The palace was quiet and silent.
Emperor Wu Lie was sitting on the dragon table, writing an edict in his own handwriting. His sitting posture was upright and his momentum could not be ignored.
The emperor was not actually old, but he had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, suffered numerous major and minor injuries, and lost his vitality, which led to a rapid decline in his physical condition in his prime.
At this time, he was sitting on a chair, concentrating on writing an imperial edict, his eyebrows slightly lowered, his posture upright, he still looked like the commander who was recruiting troops on the battlefield, the emperor who led the army in person, and people were intimidated.
"Your Majesty." The concubines, led by the imperial concubine, knelt down.
"Father." The princes also knelt down.
The important officials, led by Prime Minister Pei and Grand Tutor Qi, knelt down together: "Your Majesty."
Emperor Wu Lie put down his pen and said in a deep voice: "I don't have much time left, but the country needs successors. Today, I called the ministers of the previous dynasty, the concubines of the harem, and the princes together to decide this matter."
Yan Ming was refreshed, and he looked at Yan Donghuang calmly from the corner of his eyes, with a touch of nervous expectation in his eyes.
All seven generals under Donghuang were there. As long as Donghuang supported him, the other princes had no chance of winning.
