famous eldest daughter

Chapter 1122
Gu Yuqing placed her hand on Concubine Hui's shoulder and pressed it hard regardless of her dignity.

Feeling the warmth of Gu Yuqing's palm, Concubine Hui calmed down for a moment and still held the tea cup tightly, but she kept her face still. "What?" she asked the Minister of War.

The Minister of the Ministry of War immediately saluted and said: "Mother, I don't have any objections to your Majesty's edict. I don't have any objections at all in my heart."

For Xiao Yu's biological mother, the future empress dowager, the Minister of War wanted to kneel on his knees to express his respect at this moment.

"But... as far as I know, the fourth highness did not attend the annual banquet on Shou Sui Eve. Although the explanation given by your majesty was that the fourth highness was playful and hunting in the Xishan Palace, but..." After swallowing several times, the Minister of the Ministry of War He then said: "But at that time, His Royal Highness was actually seriously ill and unconscious, and was recuperating in His Majesty's Imperial Study Room."

As soon as he said this, except for the insiders, the remaining courtiers suddenly gasped.

He was unconscious, unable to even attend the palace banquet for the New Year's Eve, and even recuperating in the Imperial Study Room, which shows the seriousness of His Royal Highness's illness.

Today is only a few days away from the New Year's Eve. Can His Highness take over this important task?

Pairs of eyes looked at Concubine Hui.

This involves presiding over a national funeral, always dealing with King Nan'an's misdeeds, and preventing border countries from taking the opportunity to cause chaos...

Xiao Yu was originally unlearned, and now he was seriously ill. This...

Concubine Hui took a long breath of relief.

It turns out they were worried about this...

Clearing her throat with a cough, Concubine Hui became more confident, "Although Yu'er was ill in the past few days, the Queen Mother and Your Majesty died suddenly last night. Yu'er finally struggled to get up. Although he has not recovered yet, I think he should." Not to the point of..."

After saying that, Concubine Hui paused and turned to the chief chamberlain: "Go and invite His Highness the Fourth Prince to come over."

The head chamberlain agreed and turned to leave.

Previously, they were discussing the establishment of the crown prince. In order to avoid suspicion, it was naturally inappropriate for Xiao Yu to show up. What's more, the emperor and the queen mother "just" died. At this time, he should not be thinking about other things. What he wants to do at this time is to lead the harem. The princes, princesses and concubines guarded the remains of the Queen Mother and the Emperor in the Queen Mother's palace - sad!
After all, among all the princes in the palace, he is the biggest! (Although Xiao Yan is still alive...)
As soon as the head chamberlain left, the Yangxin Hall felt gloomy and gloomy.

Of course, except Gu Yuqing and Concubine Hui.

What they were worried about was whether Dong Ce could play Xiao Yu well in front of the courtiers.

The commander of the Forbidden Army and Tao Ye were in particularly pain.

Not only was he worried about whether Dong Ce would reveal his secret, but he was also worried that if Xiao Yu really came into power in the future, would he be able to deal with those thorny issues...

The eldest prince Xiao Yan is good, but his identity is that he is still a ghost who has been dead for a long time...

Hey!
Tao Ye was worried to death.

Your Majesty, what are you doing? If you are celebrating the New Year, you must die...Aren't you trying to force us to death?
Just as he was worried, Dong Ce, disguised as Xiao Yu, came in with the head chamberlain.

Although the courtiers had just learned of the death of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, "Xiao Yu" was already wearing filial piety.

When the Queen Mother was alive, she was particularly kind to Dong Ce. At this time, Dong Ce's sadness actually showed his true feelings.

The eyes are red and swollen, and the face is haggard.

He walked past the courtiers and walked straight to Concubine Hui, saluted and said hello, "Concubine, what's your name, I'm my son?"

Concubine Hui nodded, and the commander of the imperial army said to "Xiao Yu" before Concubine Hui spoke: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has passed away, but you cannot live without a king for a day. What's more, your Majesty and the Queen Mother still expect the new king to take charge of their affairs. . His Majesty left an edict to pass the throne to His Highness. Your Highness should immediately take charge of the East Palace and assume responsibility."

"Xiao Yu" was immediately stunned, "Huh?" He took a deep breath and turned back to look at the commander of the imperial army. He looked like a monkey and twitched the corner of his mouth, "What did you say? Father gave me the throne?" Don't be kidding me! It's not like you don't know what I am like. Even if I am willing to take the throne, you can't agree!"

In grief, he carried Xiao Yu's usual unruly and publicity.

Coupled with Yi Yiyi's perfection, even Concubine Hui, the mother-in-law, is a little hard to tell the truth from the fake.

"Xiao Yu" After saying that, the chamberlain took a special step forward, shook the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand, and said domineeringly: "Fourth Highness Xiao Yu accepts the edict~~~"

He didn't give the courtiers a chance to reply to "Xiao Yu" at all!
Although Dong Ce pretends to be like him, no matter how similar he is, it is still a skin-like image. After all, he is different from the person he is, and what he says may be wrong.

Xiao Yu knelt down to receive the order, and the chamberlain's chief chamberlain read the imperial edict that had just been read by the courtiers.Then the imperial edict was collected and handed directly to "Xiao Yu".

Got it!
Now, even if the courtiers disagreed and Xiao Yu was unwilling, it was too late.

There is another way to put it, that is to resist the decree, and what is more, it is the decree of the late emperor that is resisted.

"Xiao Yu" stood up, holding the imperial edict with an aggrieved look, as if it was something with a long thorn, and looked pitifully at the courtiers below, "Do you really want me to succeed?"

Tao Ye, adhering to his usual upright character, stepped forward and said unceremoniously: "Your Highness wants to disobey the imperial edict and refuse to ascend the throne. Do you want to transfer this important responsibility to the Thirteenth Prince? He is only nine years old!"

Although this sentence was said to Xiao Yu, it was said to all the courtiers: among the emperor's descendants, except Xiao Yu, no one is more suitable than him, so be the general!Who made the eldest prince, second prince, and third prince disappear!

As soon as Tao Ye's words came out, there was an immediate effect.

All the courtiers knelt down in front of "Xiao Yu" and said, "I will do my best to assist His Highness."

Concubine Hui's heart calmed down and she turned her head slightly to look at Gu Yuqing.

Their eyes met each other, and in their eyes, there was encouragement and unwavering support for each other.

Gu Zemu stood aside, watching everything silently, thinking nothing else.

"Xiao Yu" looked at the courtiers with a tragic look on his face. He was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the commander of the imperial army, "This matter has not been discussed?"

The commander of the Imperial Guard lowered his eyes and said, "Your Highness can go discuss this with the Emperor."

"Xiao Yu"... turned to look at Tao Ye on the other side, "Is this matter not discussed?"

Tao Ye looked at "Xiao Yu" seriously and said, "Anyway, we can't discuss this with you. I am only responsible for carrying out His Majesty's imperial edict."

"Xiao Yu" sighed heavily, "I'm really scared of you!"

This means I agreed, and it’s... I didn’t want to agree, you forced me to do so!
The Minister of War immediately said: "Then your Highness, please hurry up and carry out the coronation ceremony of the Crown Prince. After the ceremony, you can bury the Queen Mother and Your Majesty as soon as possible."

Concubine Hui coughed and said: "Let the Queen Mother and Your Majesty be buried as soon as possible. It is the right thing to do. But Yu'er's throne was neither stolen nor snatched. It was given to him by Your Majesty. It is legitimate. If you rush to salute at any time, I'm afraid it will be inappropriate!"
