Li Chengzong sat in a closed room. This small room, which was only ten feet in radius, must be a difference from his former Prince's Palace.

But his mentality has remained relatively stable.

The most important part of his confidence was the last conversation with Lu Chaoxi. A few days after the conversation, he thought about this matter carefully and felt that his hopes should be much greater than his nephew.

If that's the case, what else can I worry about?

Especially in the later stage, the Lu family suddenly reduced the freedom of everyone and did not allow the Li clan members who were under supervision to run around. They were originally allowed to move near the mansion, but now they are not allowed to leave this small room.

For Li Chengzong, he naturally became more at ease. Even if Li Xuanhao had any other tricks, even this ten-foot small house cannot be separated from, so what else can I tell you about?

Sitting in this small room, Li Chengzong stayed peacefully for a while, crossing his legs on the cushion for a long time, practicing with peace of mind. His mentality was as stable as an old dog, and he was not panicked at all, just waiting for the Lu family to inform him of becoming the emperor.

Inheriting Dabao and ascending the throne... This is his dream for many years. Although the way to achieve it is a bit alternative, he had never thought of it before, but it was finally realized, right?

Thinking about it this way, I feel a little excited!

I waited for a while, one day, Li Chengzong heard a sound outside his door, and then he heard the door being knocked.

A slightly familiar voice came in: "Your Highness, can I come in?"

After thinking for a little, Li Chengzong remembered who this voice was: it should be Lu Wenen.

He was a little excited and was finally here!

This is the outsider he has met during this period, and he has only sent some conventional supplies at regular intervals, such as spiritual food, elixirs, etc. Although he was also a Lu family monk, he was only in the foundation-building stage. At best, he was an ordinary tribe member and his status would not be very high.

But Lu Wenen is different.

As far as Li Chengzong knew, Lu Wenen, in the Lu family, had high cultivation and talent and good status, otherwise he would not have been entrusted with important tasks and sent to Yandu to undertake the investigation meeting.

At the moment, he came here in person, and probably something important must have been told to him.

Maybe this is the long-awaited thing?

Li Chengzong's heart became hot.

Lu Wenen had a gentle smile on his face: "After discussing the Lu family, Qingfeng Sect and Yunxiao Sect, it was decided that the Crown Prince, you, will inherit the throne in five days."

Hearing the four words "Inheriting the throne", the joy in Li Chengzong's heart emerged like a fountain.

No matter how confident I was before, I still felt a little nervous when I didn’t settle down.

Now, I finally have a reassurance pill to take.

But then he felt something was wrong, and he asked, "Will you inherit the throne in five days? Will the time be too hasty? Is it time to prepare for such a short time?"

It is normal for Li Chengzong to have such doubts. Although he had not witnessed the scene when his father Li Shiwen inherited the throne with his own eyes. However, according to the records in some ancient books, the ceremony when the emperor of Dayan ascended the throne should be very grand and complicated, so obviously there is no way to prepare within a few days.

Lu Wen explained: "It's urgent, and we don't have so much time to prepare. After discussing these formal work, we decided to suspend the decision. We can ignore it for the time being. The most important thing is to set the title first."

Li Chengzong also expressed his understanding of this.

It is indeed an extraordinary period, and he can understand the idea that the Lu family and the Yunxiao Sect want to make things settled sooner. For this reason, it is not unacceptable to ignore some red tape.

However, Lu Wenen's next words made his heart cool down instantly.

"The preparation time was very short, and it was indeed a little hasty. However, it would not take such a big ceremony for you to succeed to the throne. After all, the more important thing is the abdication ceremony three months later."

Abdication ceremony? What does abdication ceremony mean?

Li Chengzong was completely tragic, and he doubted whether he had heard something wrong.

Lu Wenen's expression did not change much, and he still had such a gentle smile. But this smile seemed so hateful in Li Chengzong's eyes.

He stood up from the futon and glared at Lu Wenen. His spiritual power was boiling with his emotions, as if he was about to take action with anger at any time.

"Your Highness, please calm down. You should also think that the decision made by Yunxiao Sect and Qingfeng Sect together will be no one in the entire Yan Kingdom. If you don't want to be the emperor for these three months, it's the same for us to go to the crown prince Li Xuanhao. If Li Xuanhao refuses to accept it, there will always be one of the people in the Li clan who is willing to accept it. If no one is willing, then it's not impossible to find any one and treat it as the Li family and be the emperor for these three months."

"I would like to advise the prince, you are a hero. If you become the emperor for these three months, you will become the patriarch of the Li clan in the future. After abdicating, you will be named Anle Gong, and at least you will have a wealth and honor. If you are not good, you may not be able to survive for three months. What should you choose? Please consider it yourself. I will ask you again in the evening. I hope that your prince will give me a clear answer at that time."

After saying this, Lu Wenen didn't say anything to Li Chengzong anymore, and turned around and left.

Watching Lu Wenen leave, Li Chengzong, who was still angry and angry just now, felt that the strength in his body had been exhausted. He was weak all over, and he fell backwards and fell to the ground.

The words of Lu Wenen just now have brought him a huge blow.

Li Chengzong never thought before that there would be abdication, usurpation of the throne, or change of dynasties. This was like a brain teaser for him, touching his blind spot in his thinking. Before that, he had never even thought about it.

Although Lu Wenen did not say who he wanted to abdicate to, after the blind spot of his thinking was pointed out, he could easily guess that the target of his abdication should be the Lu family, and it is hard to say which of the Lu family is.

But what does it have to do with him?

The position of emperor who has secured it is gone.

Oh, it’s not that it’s gone. In fact, he still wants to be the emperor, but only for three months. After a transition, abdication is still a little better than forcing. The dream that has lasted for thousands of years has been completely shattered; even a puppet emperor is not allowed to be.

In any case, what Li Chengzong didn't expect most was that he, the emperor, had not yet become the last emperor of the Li Dynasty, was destined to be the last emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom and the Li Dynasty...

The more I thought about it, the more I became, the more uncomfortable I felt. The hot weather was cold sweat all over my body, the hands and feet were cold, and tears flowed down in a daze.

...

In the evening, Lu Wenen arrived on time based on what he said before.

After almost half a day of calmness, Li Chengzong calmed down a lot, and at the same time he thought it through it clearly.

Although Lu Wenen looked polite when he came to him today, he said something like "waiting for your reply tonight", Li Chengzong knew very clearly that he had no choice.

Even if he suddenly changed his nature and wanted to show his will to be the last emperor and the "Anlegong" with a little insult, he would not be able to stop the Yan State from changing dynasties from Li's dynasty to Lu's dynasty.

It's just a change of person but to be this role.

Then... I'd better be this "Anle Gong" myself.

After receiving a clear reply, Lu Wenen chatted with the crown prince for a few words and then left.

To be honest, Lu Wenen had no disgust towards Li Chengzong. Even five or six years ago, when he first came to Yandu, he seemed to have been secretly taken care of by Li Chengzong.

But this matter has nothing to do with personal relationships, and Lu Wenen could not deviate from his family's position.

What's more, if you really want to talk about personal feelings, it is actually not very deep.

Lu Wenen has been busy these days. I have come to see Li Chengzong twice today, but I really took a break from my busy schedule and took time to take it.

Now he is the person who is most familiar with the situation in Yandu. Not only did he stay in Yandu for more than six years, but the most important thing is that he served as the Left Superintendent of the Court and also for many years. During his tenure, he led his team in Yandu, and he moved quite frequently, investigating cases and arresting people everywhere for clues. With his intentions, he had a deeper understanding of the entire Yandu, whether it was the geographical environment or various complex forces.

Now, 20,000 Feiyunzhou cultivators are stationed in Yandu, and 300 of the Lu family's direct cultivators have arrived, and they are almost out of their way. Including the five golden elixirs in Feiyunzhou, their strength is steadily crushing Yandu.

But no matter what, the nature of the guest army cannot escape.

In the short term, it is difficult for the Lu family to clarify who will be the enemy and who will be friends within Yandu. Various complex political forces are enough to make people lose their heads.

But five days later, Li Chengzong's ascension ceremony and the abdication ceremony three months later were all things that cannot be delayed.

In order to avoid someone making trouble in secret, Lu Wenen has to shoulder the responsibility if he is unwilling to do so.

First, he had to ensure the throne ceremony five days later, which was normal; secondly, things were even more difficult in three months.

For this reason, he seconded many people from the family and from Qingfeng Sect.

The first thing he did was to integrate the Tingwei Mansion.

This is the last official armed force in Yandu, besides the garrison army and the Yulin Imperial Army.

At the same time, due to the particularity of the Tingwei Mansion, this team is in control, which is of great significance to the subsequent security and stability maintenance work.
