Chapter 607 Jingtai entrusts an orphan on his deathbed, and undercurrents surge in the court
"Purchase, Purgatory Tower! Did Li Zian suppress His Majesty?"
The young minister murmured with astonishment on his face.
"What a sin... No matter how much the emperor makes mistakes, he can't use the Purgatory Tower to suppress him! The Purgatory Tower is used to suppress evil demons in the world, how can it be used to suppress the emperor!"
An old minister burst into tears and was heartbroken.
"The matter has come to this, what can we do?"
"The late Emperor practiced evil arts and took away His Majesty's body. How is this...how is this different from evil spirits? I do agree with what Li Zian did!"
The ministers in the court started discussing one after another. Some were in favor, some were against, and some were indifferent...
However, everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty knew that Li Zian had great righteousness in his hands, and he should be almost certain to depose the emperor!
Look! Even the old guy on the astrological platform who retired from the country was indifferent. What does this mean?
This shows that the Tianji Sect will completely abandon the late Emperor!
But there is one more trouble...
Today, His Majesty has been deprived of his body by two generations of emperors. Even if he can barely regain his consciousness, I am afraid that he will not be able to survive for long.
Then after Li Zian kills the soul of Emperor Jingshun...
Who will take over the throne and take the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan?
Empress Wang gave birth to a prince for Emperor Jingtai. Ahem, let’s just call it Emperor Jingtai’s...
According to the royal etiquette, this infant prince should succeed to the throne.
However, if this happens, the world will not be safe.
If the master is weak and the minister is strong, it will be a disaster!
Whether Li Zian is regent or Queen Wang listens to politics behind the curtain, it is not a good thing.
Even if all bad signs can be suppressed in a short period of time, as the little prince grows up, irreconcilable conflicts will definitely arise between the monarch and his ministers. Once they break out, the court and even the whole world will be in turmoil!
But now apart from this little prince, there really is no other choice.
The King of Jin is dead, the King of Yan is dead, the King of Chu is dead...
All the brothers of Emperor Jingtai died.
There is no more prince.
Is it possible that a prince should be adopted from a vassal king with a more remote bloodline and succeed to the throne?
That would be really messy!
There are many kings of the Dayin vassal. If you want to choose one of them, it is related to the supreme imperial power. I don’t know how many people will be implicated. If one person fails, I don’t know how many people will be killed!
Dayin can no longer bear the torment.
Alas, for the current plan, we can only wait for Li Zian to come out and then discuss it carefully.
Since Li Zian dares to depose the emperor, he must have a candidate in mind.
And when Jingshun was pulled into the Purgatory Tower by Li Nuo, his connection with the outside world was completely cut off.
Without the command of Emperor Jingshun, the heroes of the ten founding generals who were summoned became unstable.
After a while.
The movements of these ten people became more and more stiff, until they dropped their weapons and fell heavily to the ground.
even……
The head that was forced back was separated again.
The ten great dead souls were reduced to ashes and smoke.
it's over!
it's all over……
Zhennanhou, who was still kneeling on the ground, stretched his neck and tried his best to open his mouth, but no sound came out.
His ancestors were teased twice by Emperor Wenzong and Jingshun!
Where can he vent the anger in his heart?
He couldn't understand that as the emperor of the human race, he wanted to engage in those evil heretics, enslave and drive the souls of the dead. Is such a person worthy of being the emperor of the human race?
At this moment, Zhennan Hou was really disheartened.
I served my country loyally and risked my life, but what I got in return was not merit, but humiliation!
call……
The Marquis of Zhennan let out a heavy breath, then stood up and strode towards the outside of the palace without looking back.
Purgatory Tower.
As soon as Li Nuo thought about it, Emperor Jingshun was locked by the forbidden magic chain and imprisoned in the first prison.
Once here, he has thousands of ways to separate Jingshun's soul from Jingtai's body!
"Jingshun, let's put an end to the grudge between you and me today."
Li Nuo's eyes flashed, and he pointed his finger at Jingshun's eyebrows, and then a cloud of black mist rushed in.
"Ahhh!"
Jingshun couldn't help but struggled wildly and screamed.
Thousands of ants eat souls!
It hurts so much!
At this moment, he finally felt fear!
In his ears, the dark wind blowing was mixed with the sounds of various ghosts and howls, constantly intruding into his consciousness and infinitely amplifying his inner demons.
And the sins he had committed once again shone clearly before his eyes...
Every time I look back at the past, it is a torture.
"Let me go……"
With his face as pale as snow and sweat dripping from his forehead, Emperor Jingshun finally put aside his dignity as an emperor and began to beg Li Nuo for mercy.
Li Nuo suppressed the hatred in his heart and said: "Now do you know how to beg for mercy? Let me ask you, sixteen years ago, Ye Changqing was framed and framed, but you personally instigated it?"
Although he knew that this was the order of Emperor Jingshun, Li Nuo's obsession could only be completely dissipated when Jingshun said it himself.
"Ye Changqing?"
Emperor Jingshun was stunned for a moment, and finally recalled it. He said feebly, "My throne is due to his contribution, but it's a pity that he died too early. Do you want to vindicate him?"
Li Nuo's eyes were filled with murderous intent: "Ye Changqing is my wife's grandfather!"
"That's it, that's it, hahaha..."
Emperor Jingshun suddenly burst into laughter. He even laughed so hard that tears almost flowed out.
"Hahaha, I didn't lose! I didn't lose!" Emperor Jingshun gritted his teeth, with a ferocious look on his face, and his face was twisted, "I had already won the game back at least sixteen years ago, hahahaha!"
Li Nuo took a deep breath and raised the [Buddha Knife] high: "After you die, Qingyang will succeed to the throne, and Ye Changqing will also restore his reputation! As for the heinous crimes you have committed, I will
Let the imperial court declare to the world that your posthumous title will be changed to 'Emperor Zhou'! And Wenzong's posthumous title will be changed to 'Emperor Jie'! You, father and son, will forever be nailed to the pillar of shame in history and serve the world for
Despised by all the people!"
In this era where posthumous reputation is the most important thing, Li Nuo's move is undoubtedly murderous and heart-wrenching!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Li Zian, how dare you!"
Emperor Jingshun's veins popped out and his eyes were split!
"Why don't I dare?"
Li Nuo smiled coldly, and then pointed the [Buddha Knife] at Emperor Jingshun.
Emperor Jingshun smiled in despair.
During his fifteen years in office, he planned this and that, but in the end, his plans came to nothing.
He regretted it!
He regretted that he was too soft-hearted and didn't directly push Li Zian out and kill him! Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many things that happened later.
One wrong step and the result will fall short.
Although death was imminent, Emperor Jingshun still did not wake up.
"shock!"
Li Nuo was no longer polite, he took a deep breath to activate the Buddha's power, the [Buddha Knife] trembled, and the Buddha's voice rolled.
Coupled with the cruel mental torture of the prisoners in the [Purgatory Tower], Emperor Jingshun's soul only lasted less than three breaths before it separated from his physical body and suddenly floated out.
Seeing the remnant soul trying to escape from the gap in the cell, Li Nuo smiled mockingly, turned the blade in his hand, and wiped it towards the soul.
But someone moved faster than him.
Qi Ling Lianyu opened her mouth and sucked it in. She heard a scream from Emperor Jingshun's soul and was sucked into her mouth.
"Hiccup...I'm so full, brother, I'm going to bed."
Lianyu patted her belly and saw that Li Nuo didn't look very well, so she quickly ran away.
Li Nuo was speechless.
I almost forgot, I still have this gold-eating beast at home.
The gold-eating beast that specializes in eating souls!
I wonder if Lianyu will grow up after eating the emperor's soul?
Without the suppression of Emperor Jingshun's soul, Emperor Jingtai finally woke up.
Li Nuo raised his hand to remove the breath of [Purgatory Tower], and then hurriedly helped Emperor Jingtai up.
Emperor Jingtai aged at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Full of silver hair.
Skinny.
Respiratory weakness.
This is the behavior of a dying person.
Emperor Jingtai struggled to focus his originally distracted eyes. When he saw that the person in front of him was Li Zian, a happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Thank you, thank you..."
He moved his lips, his voice was weak, and his life was about to run out.
Li Nuo held Emperor Jingtai's hand tightly with one hand, and hurriedly took out a medicine king with the other hand, saying: "Your Majesty, hold on, take this [Blood Qi Pill], you will definitely get better."
Jingtai shook his head: "I... my time is running out. Dayin's future... I leave it to you."
"His Majesty……"
Li Nuo opened his mouth.
"I still like to hear you call me...King Qin."
Emperor Jingtai showed a look of reminiscence on his face.
He missed that time two years ago.
At that time, he was very high-spirited, and Li Zian was just a little jailer.
The friendship between the two was also forged from that time.
pity……
Nothing can go back.
"Prince Qin, I will take you home right now!"
Li Nuo said sadly.
Of course he could see that this was not a physical injury. It was an irreversible damage to King Qin's soul.
There is no cure in the world...
"Ahem, I want to ask you one thing...can you accept my son as your disciple..."
Emperor Jingtai showed a hint of pleading on his face.
He knew that after his death, his descendants would definitely die a violent death if no one protected them.
Because no new emperor would allow someone who could potentially threaten his imperial power to be around him.
As for letting his son inherit the throne?
Emperor Jingtai never had this idea.
Can't keep it...
"Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as I, Li Zi'an, stay alive, no one will dare to touch a hair on the little prince's body."
How could Li Nuo refuse to agree to the request of an orphan before his death?
"I don't want...the child to have any...any involvement with the royal family."
After a pause, Emperor Jingtai's breath became weaker and weaker, but his grip on Li Nuo became tighter and tighter.
He said with difficulty: "Let, let... let him be an ordinary person and grow up peacefully. I will be satisfied... Answer, promise me..."
Emperor Jingtai's childish eyes expanded rapidly.
His vitality...
In other words, his soul, under the suppression of two generations of emperors, has long been riddled with holes. His ability to persist until now is actually supported by a belief.
Emperor Jingtai.
death of a prince.
His only worries were entrusted to Li Nuo.
It’s also a relief…
Li Nuo restrained Emperor Jingtai's body and took it out of the Purgatory Tower.
When all the ministers saw this, they fell to their knees one after another, wailing and crying bitterly.
The emperor of Dayin passed away, but the Dayin Dynasty must continue. Of course, there will be a lot of work next.
Especially the Ministry of Rites.
"I leave the matters behind the emperor's death to you."
After Li Nuo took over the Ministry of Rites, he returned directly to Chang'an.
In order to avoid suspicion, he stayed behind closed doors in the following days.
The emperor passed away, but the country cannot be without a king for a day.
The ministers in the DPRK also quarreled quite fiercely.
Some people talked about choosing a prince from the vassal kings to adopt as Emperor Jingtai, but this idea was immediately questioned, and even the minister who raised the matter was besieged.
It’s not like Emperor Jingtai doesn’t have a prince!
It is inconsistent with etiquette to adopt one of the vassal kings.
Most of the courtiers still advocated that the young prince succeed to the throne.
As for whether to let Li Zian be the regent or let the Queen Mother handle the affairs behind the curtain, then... ahem, let's discuss it again, discuss it again.
The king should be appointed first to calm the hearts of the people in the world!
Of course, many ministers also rushed to Chang'an in the past few days, but they were all rejected by the Wu'an Palace.
In fact, the ministers all know that Li Zian is doing this to avoid suspicion, but if you stay behind closed doors and don't even spread any news, it makes people think.
Li Zian, what on earth are you going to do?
…
In the palace, Queen Wang almost fainted. But even in coma, she still held her son tightly and refused to let go.
This is her lifeblood.
In fact, she has been suspicious these past few days. Except for the few personal maids brought from Prince Qin's palace, no one else can approach her, including the Wang family!
Wang Ziyan and others were rejected several times, and finally had no choice but to leave.
However, the Wang family has been "full of guests" and "very lively" these days.
Who hasn’t been careful yet?
Once the little prince ascends the throne, Wang Ziyan and others will become real relatives!
Seven days later.
Great court meeting.
In front of the Meridian Gate.
"Everyone, the emperor will be buried in the imperial mausoleum tomorrow. A new emperor must be elected today. The new emperor will support the Lingshu. This is our Dayin tradition."
The Minister of Rites said.
"I have some candidates in my mind, why don't we discuss it first?"
Di Zhengming jumped out again.
Ahem.
Soon, he will become a veteran of the Five Dynasties. Who dares to say no to entering the cabinet with such qualifications?
He even felt that the position of chief minister of the cabinet was beckoning to him.
"Lord Di, the prince is still here, and it is only natural that he should succeed to the throne! If you speak arrogantly, don't blame me for taking your word for it in front of the Queen Mother!"
Wang Ziyan's face immediately darkened.
When Di Zhengming saw this, he could only smile: "Master Wang, the candidate in my mind is the prince."
Standing behind the prince is the queen mother and the entire royal family!
Who dares to offend?
Most of the court officials also agreed to the prince's succession.
The only uncertainty now is in Li Zianna!
The words of this Confucian and Taoist leader carry the greatest weight!
If he opposes the young prince's succession, the Wang family will have no choice but to swallow this bitter pill with tears.
"The ministers are invited to pay their respects..."
The shrill voice of the Little Yellow Gate sounded, the Meridian Gate opened, and the ministers entered the palace...
The Jinluan Hall was destroyed and could not be rebuilt so quickly. Another one was built, so today the court decided to place it in another Fengtian Hall.
The dragon chair is naturally empty.
There was a chair next to it, and Queen Wang, who was about to be promoted to Queen Mother, was sitting uneasily, holding a child in her arms.
However, as long as those who are interested take a closer look, they will find that Queen Wang's expression is actually somewhat abnormal.
