Prime Minister take care

Chapter 396 Changing the name of Yuan Dynasty
Shu Palace.

In the palace, the courtiers of the Shu Kingdom were all wearing plain clothes. Xia Yunmo's clothes were placed in the coffin in front of the throne, and there were faint sounds of sadness.

The death of Zhou Emperor Xia Yunzhu was undoubtedly a huge bad news for Huan Qing.

He was fooled, but there was nothing he could do.The ceremony for the conferment of Zen has been half prepared, but the rightful owner is dead, what can Huan Qing do?
Of course, both Liang and Shu had different opinions on Xia Yunqi's death.

The official explanation of the Kingdom of Shu is that Huan Qing forced Xia Yunzhu to make him the king of Liang, and then coveted the position and murdered the emperor.The statement given by Liang Guo is that the emperor was already seriously ill when he set off for Renshan County, but died suddenly.Before leaving, Xia Yunhu left Huan Qing a will, which abolished the crown prince of King Shu and placed Zen in Huan Qing, King of Liang.

No matter how unreliable this statement is, and there are many loopholes in it, a group of scribes supported by Daliang in the city of God still gave a orthodox explanation of this edict.

There have always been only two ways to conquer the world.One overthrew the previous dynasty and denied its legitimacy.Both inherited the legitimacy of the previous dynasty.

Regardless of Liang Shu, they all followed the second method.

Therefore, Huan Qing did his best to show respect for Xia Yunhu, the former emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.Huan Qing not only buried him in the tomb of the Zhou family next to Shenwu City, but also went to offer condolences in person, touched the coffin and wept, unable to cry, fainted several times, and almost collapsed.

Of course, this is not a rumor, but a real incident.

Finally, after repeated admonitions from hundreds of officials, Huan Qing reluctantly cheered up and inherited the throne for the sake of the country and the country.

"I never noticed it before! This guy Huan Qing is so shameless, but he has a bit of demeanor like this old guy Huan Wu."

In the corridor behind the main hall, Yang Xian was waiting for Xia Gong's nirvana, preparing to attend the funeral together.

Yan Le stood behind Yang Xian without saying a word.Theoretically, Huan Qing was much older than Yang Xian, but in his words, he was considered a brat.

"But Huan Qing is too impatient. He is so anxious to inherit the throne."

Yang Xian sneered.Xia Yunming was already dead, and there was nothing Huan Qing could do about it.It is also necessary to forge an imperial edict, so it would be safer to first find a young son from the Xia clan to inherit the throne, and then complete the conferring ceremony after one or two years.

Huan Qing was too impatient. If he succeeded in one step, he would immediately ascend the throne.But in this way, there are too many loopholes and it is easy to be criticized.

"Huan Qing dismissed the chamberlains who were originally in the late emperor's palace. Even Fang Changshi was ordered to stay in the emperor's mausoleum to guard the mausoleum for the late emperor. I'm afraid it won't be long before the chamberlain in charge of the seal documents around the late emperor will be They died suddenly one after another."

Yan Le was disdainful. No matter how hard Huan Qing pretended, his methods were too hasty and had too many flaws.

"Father!" At this moment, Xia Gongnie, accompanied by Huang Hao, walked over happily and took Yang Xian's hand, "Let's go!"

Xia Gong Nie pulled halfway, but saw that Yang Xian was motionless, and was a little confused.

"What happened to Xiangfu?"

Yang Xian looked at Xia Gongnie. This little guy was dressed very clean today and had his hair washed, but after all, he felt that something was not right.

Ah yes!

"Your Majesty, are you planning to attend the funeral of the late emperor like this?"

Xia Gongnie looked around and found nothing wrong. Everything was dressed according to the etiquette, and there was nothing overstepping the mark.

"That traitor Huan Qing burst into tears when he attended the late emperor's funeral. How could there not be any tears on the king's face?"

"I feel a little sad in my heart, but what should I do if I can't cry?"

Xia Gongnie said very honestly.

Yang Xian thought for a while, walked to Xia Gongnie, leaned down and whispered in her ear.

"My lord, from now on your monthly pocket money will be cut in half."

With a "wow" sound, Xia Gongnie burst into tears.Yang Xian continued to work harder and said: "In the future, we can no longer watch the golden gun in the throat and the broken stone in the chest."

The tears on Xia Gongnie's face fell down, the tears were as big as buckets, and her eyes were full of tears.

"Not only that, the king's daily homework will be increased tenfold from now on. If you can't finish writing, you won't be allowed to sleep, eat, or go out to play."

"Wow ah ah!"

Continuous crying lingered in the corridor, and there was only two words to describe the expression on Xia Gongnie's face, pain.

"I will open the kitchen when I get back. Your Majesty will never be able to eat chicken legs again."

Xia Gongnie's little face suddenly turned pale. She looked at Yang Xian with a desperate expression on her face and almost burst into tears.

It's almost here.

Yang Xian was very satisfied and pulled Xia Gongnie towards the main hall.

In the palace, a group of courtiers were kneeling. To most of them, Xia Yunxuan was a stranger they had never seen before in their lives.

But Xia Yunming is the emperor, and this status requires them to show their due attitude.I have to say that the courtiers were very measured, and the sadness on their faces was very tense.

But the performances of the courtiers were dim under the halo of Xia Gong Nirvana.

The feeling of almost despair was felt by all the courtiers. Xia Gongnie came in with Yang Xian, and his whole body was almost limp.

In front of the coffin, Xia Gongnie immediately fell to her knees, then beat her chest and stamped her feet, wailing loudly.

Yang Xian explained on the side.

"Huan Ni stole the country and killed the emperor. When the king heard about it, he was so sad that he couldn't eat for several days. He vowed to expedition north to the Central Plains to avenge the late emperor."

Xia Gongnie raised her head and looked at Yang Xian, her mouth wide open, accompanied by tears, which made all the courtiers feel sad.

But Xia Gongnie was thinking about something else entirely at the moment.

What does it mean to be unable to eat for several days? I still have to be unable to eat for several days!

After listening to Yang Xian's explanation, all the courtiers knelt down one after another.

"Please, Your Majesty, express your condolences and respect your body."

The sound spread throughout the court, but the only answer to the courtiers was continuous crying.

Yang Xian ignored Xia Gongnie, took a step back, and prostrated himself behind Xia Gongnie.

"Your Majesty, please express your condolences. The country is the most important thing. Now that Huan Ni has stolen the throne, the people of the world are in dire straits. I respectfully ask the King to respect the legacy of the late emperor, make the Zhou Dynasty prosperous, and succeed to the throne of the emperor."

Xia Gongni was the crown prince, and unlike Huan Qing's so-called posthumous edict, he was naturally orthodox.Therefore, like Huan Qing, she did not need to make three resignations and three requests, and it was natural to inherit the throne.

When Yang Xian finished speaking and asked her to agree, Xia Gongnie had just stood up. Perhaps because she had cried too hard just now, her head sank and she fell down.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

In the tenth year of Yonghe, Emperor Xia Yunxiao of Zhou died, and two emperors in the world stood side by side.

The state of Liang changed its name to Yan Ning, and the state of Shu changed its name to Jianwu.
