Chapter 185 The Four Princes Ascension to the Throne

The news of Emperor Shengde's death spread very quickly, and within an hour, the whole of Zhongzhou knew the news of His Majesty's death.

There was no national mourning as imagined, the common people just talked about it after dinner, Emperor Shengde didn't show up for a year, everyone was used to not having this national army.

As the commander of the imperial army, Lu Jinzhou traveled between the various palaces. First, he had to assist the Ministry of Rites with the affairs of His Majesty's death. More importantly, he was also busy with the enthronement ceremony of the fourth prince.

Emperor Shengde is dead, and no one can threaten the status of the fourth prince anymore. He only needs to ascend to the throne in a legitimate way to control the country.

In the enthronement hall, the fourth prince slowly climbed up the stone steps and looked down.

The Ministry of Rites announced the new title of Emperor Kaiyuan, and changed the title to Kaiyuan Nian.

Just when all the officials shouted long live, long live, long live, there was a huge sound, and all the civil and military officials were shocked.

"There's an earthquake, there's an earthquake."

"Protect Your Majesty."

"Quick, run."

……

Chu Qingyun looked at the motionless eaves and shouted, "Don't panic, it's not an earthquake."

"Master Chu, what do you know as a woman?"

"That's right, run away,"

"Life is important!"

……

At this moment, another loud noise really shook the entire palace.

Chu Qingyun heard it clearly this time, it was not an earthquake at all, but the sound of gunpowder explosion.

How could there be gunpowder? Chu Qingyun's expression changed.

broken.

The gunpowder hidden in the home of the fourth prince was discovered.

Kaiyuandi obviously also noticed the abnormality, looking at Chu Qingyun with horror in his eyes, Chu Qingyun gave him a comforting look.

Then he shook his head, telling him to be calm.

Taking advantage of other people's attention on the explosion, she approached Lu Jinzhou, tugged at his court clothes, and whispered in a low voice: "Lu Jinzhou, you have caught everyone, I will go to the palace wall to check."

Lu Jinzhou nodded immediately: "Be careful, don't be head-on, come back and discuss things first."

Speaking of this, Lu Jinzhou felt a little worried again. With Chu Qingyun's temperament, he would deal with things on the spot, and he would never wait until he came back to discuss.

But this time was different, the other party had gunpowder in his hand, Lu Jinzhou felt uneasy, and wished to investigate with Chu Qingyun immediately, but he had the responsibility to protect the imperial city and other people, so he couldn't just walk away.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Chu Qingyun pointed to the fourth prince: "You take care of the one above, don't wait a while, I'm scared to pee."

"The more you say it, the more outrageous it is. Although the fourth prince looks cowardly, he is still a person who knows the general situation."

Chu Qingyun waved her hand: "I don't want to listen to your preaching, so I'm leaving."

Lu Jinzhou immediately ordered someone to protect the new emperor, and watched Chu Qingyun walk away.

Chu Qingyun stood on the city wall, looking into the distance.

The billowing smoke was located on the east and west sides, and Chu Qingyun frowned. The smoke was very close to the city gate, which not only facilitated the escape of the murderer, but also made the people of Zhongzhou City flee to the center of the city, and the center of the city is This imperial city.

This person's mind, obviously, is to use the common people to open the impregnable city gate.

Suddenly, a figure flew over, it was Dark Eleven.

"Eleven, what's the situation?"

An Shi was out of breath anxiously: "Girl, something serious has happened. The people near the city gates in the East and West City have fallen into chaos. Many people are running towards the Central Avenue, and there has already been a stampede."

It was exactly what she had just thought.

Chu Qingyun frowned, looking at the huge Zhongzhou City, the explosion and fire were just on the edge of the east and west cities, and it had already caused panic among the people, what if it was in other places?

Chu Qingyun was taken aback, and quickly counted the amount of gunpowder in His Majesty's mansion outside the city.

It's not like I don't know, but I was shocked, those numbers just now are just a drop in the bucket, and the behind-the-scenes people still have a large amount of gunpowder, which can carry out at least ten more explosions like this.

Needless to say, there were countless casualties, but causing panic in Zhongzhou was even more difficult.

She quickly flew down from the wall: "Eleventh, dispatch the bad guys and all the government soldiers to check all the houses on the third east wall and the third west wall in the city that are close to the city wall."

"Yes, girl." As expected of An Jiu's land, An Eleven disappeared into the woods in an instant with his lightness skills.

Chu Qingyun whistled, and Wu Yunsan quickly ran over from a distance, with unfinished grass on the corner of his mouth.

"Let's go, let's go out." Chu Qingyun wiped his mouth clean and landed on the horse.

Watching Chu Qingyun gallop away, the guard at the gate opened his mouth wide.

He and Lu Jinzhou were the only ones who could enter the imperial city on horseback, which was also the special treatment given to him by the new emperor Kaiyuan.

Chu Qingyun landed on the horse and galloped past the Central Avenue, entering the deserted Prince Street.

Originally, the residence of the fourth prince was empty, leaving only a few servants in Dali.

Chu Qingyun pushed open the door, but the few people did not take any precautions. They knew that Chu Qingyun had already entered the front hall, and no one noticed it.

With such a lax defense, no wonder the other party transferred so much gunpowder with ease.

Chu Qingyun's eyes rolled, no, even so, the truckloads of gunpowder couldn't have been transported away without a trace.

He looked at the three people in front of him, they were all honest and honest.

Chu Qingyun didn't come to the Fourth Prince's Mansion many times, but her memory was excellent, and among the three people, none of them were familiar.

"You guys, who came first?" Chu Qingyun stared at them,
The old man on the far side immediately said: "Master Chu, this old slave is the earliest, and this old slave has been with the fourth prince since he was a child."

Chu Qingyun looked at this father-in-law up and down, he looked 50 years old, and his temperament was very calm, why didn't the pure-hearted fourth prince take such an old slave away.

In front of the emperor, all the eunuchs who follow are not young. One reason is that they are considerate, and the other reason is that they have feelings for serving the elder master since childhood.

This father-in-law looked clean, he was not someone who did rough work, so he must have served the master in front of him.

"Your Majesty is not used to moving into the palace, and wants to see if there are any old things that can be taken away."

Chu Qingyun remembered that Emperor Kaiyuan liked a pair of soft pillows and wanted to take them with him, but Lu Jinzhou felt that the soft pillows were not solemn and serious and would damage the prestige of the emperor, so he persuaded Emperor Kaiyuan.

When the old man heard that he had the opportunity to have a direct conversation with the boss, he immediately beamed with joy: "This old servant knows that this yard is the most familiar to this old servant. Even if His Majesty hid them in the basement, this old servant can dig them out."

"I'm bothering my father-in-law over there."

The old man turned around immediately and walked away with great interest.

Chu Qingyun's face darkened: "Take me to where you live."

A maid nodded timidly: "We live in the east, and the father-in-law lives in the largest room."

Chu Qingyun nodded, you go and clean up first, and I will go later.
