"Ji!" He Lanxuan struggled to grab Helan Ji's sleeve, "I hope you...are always...happy...happy..."
Struggling to say the last few words, He Lanxuan closed his eyes and fell into He Lanji's arms with a smile. A generation of emperors passed away like this.
"If there is an afterlife, I hope you will be happy too!" He Lanji stood up with a serious face and gave an order in a loud voice, "Come here, let the ministers of the third rank or above in the capital enter the palace!"
He Lanji gave an order, and immediately countless imperial guardsmen left the palace and "invited" all the ministers of the third rank and above in Qitian to the palace.
After all the officials of the third rank and above entered the palace, the night rain had stopped and the morning light had emerged. Long Xiang and Shan Rongfei also rushed to Qitian City overnight with ten thousand cavalry.
After ordering these 10,000 cavalrymen to take over the defense of the capital, He Lanji issued a series of orders, which were nothing more than that the new emperor ascended the throne and the old emperor was ordered to die.
While Helan was silent in the study, issuing orders one after another, Chu Tianjiao came to the meeting hall in the northwest of the palace and walked casually into the door of the meeting hall.
Outside the door, the ministers who were chatting among each other immediately turned their faces when they heard her footsteps.
Without looking at the crowd, Chu Tianjiao just unfolded the imperial edict in his hand and said, "Officials, accept the edict!"
A person who can reach the third rank of an official is naturally not a mediocre person. They immediately smelled the extraordinary flavor in it. Although people had not yet recognized who this Chu Tianjiao was, they did not dare to raise any objections. They all knelt down.
On the ground, listen quietly.
"It is a blessing from heaven, and the emperor Zhao said: He Lanji is now appointed as regent to assist the new emperor in his administration. Princess Chu Tianjiao's words are as important as those of the regent. If there is anyone who dissatisfied, the princess can personally kill him..."
God is my witness, she had an empty scroll in her hand, with not a single word on it.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
All the ministers bowed their heads and shouted long live, finally understanding in their hearts that the old emperor had passed away and the new emperor had ascended the throne.
Hanging down the empty scroll, Chu Tianjiao casually placed the imperial edict on the table, "This is why I summoned you to the palace today. Now that the old emperor has retired, according to the rules, officials of third rank and above must keep vigil in the palace for three days. My lords,
I suffered in the palace for three days!"
"Watching the emperor's funeral is what a lower-ranking official should do!" an official said flatteringly.
"Exactly, exactly!" Immediately, there was a chorus of agreement.
Chu Tianjiao looked at the faces of these sycophants, almost none of them looked sad, and he couldn't help but sneer three times in his heart.
A military general standing by the table glanced at the imperial edict on the table, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "How dare you, how dare you pass on the imperial edict!"
"Dare to preach the saint, do I have one?!" Chu Tianjiao raised his eyebrows innocently, "Excuse me, what is the name of this general!"
"I'm Ouyang Chi!" The general announced his name arrogantly and looked at Chu Tianjiao with contempt, "Who are you to have such courage?!"
"Hmph!" Chu Tianjiao snorted lightly from his nose, "Bold Ouyang Chi, the following committed, dare to be rude to this princess, are you... looking for death?!"
"Ha..." Ouyang Chi laughed out loud, "What a careless girl, you dare to take the name of a princess. I think you are the one looking for death..."
As soon as you said the word "you", a green light flew out of Chu Tianjiao's sleeves, wrapped around his throat, and with a slight flick, Chu Tianjiao threw Ouyang Chi out the door like he was throwing garbage, "Xiao Yu'er, your breakfast
