Joy of Life: Rebirth of the Second Prince, Inviting Emperor Qing to Die

Chapter 391: Wedding, Ceremony Completed

After a while.

The originally bustling "Tai Chi Hall" has begun to quiet down.

All the civil and military officials in the hall remained silent and stood there with their heads bowed.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

The assassins who had been showing off their power just now all died tragically on the ground, allowing the imperial guards to carry away the bodies and start wiping the blood off the ground with towels and wooden basins.

Li Chengze sat on the dragon throne, with no expression on his face from beginning to end.

As for Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao and others, they all disappeared at this moment.

Ye Zhong, who was outside the main hall, was gasping for breath and almost fainted from fright.

Fortunately, the new emperor was fine just now.

Otherwise, you will definitely be severely punished.

At this time, the middle-aged eunuch standing in front of Li Chengze shook the whisk in his hand and shouted:

"The auspicious time has arrived, the ceremony will continue!"

"Please invite all the ministers to pay homage to His Majesty."

As soon as the middle-aged eunuch finished speaking, all the civil and military officials at the ceremony began to kneel on the ground.

"See Your Majesty."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Li Chengze nodded slightly and said, "My dear ministers, please stand up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After the civil and military officials said this, they stood up.

Then, the middle-aged eunuch said, "Today is the auspicious day for your Majesty to ascend the throne. In addition, it is also the wedding day for your Majesty, General Ye's daughter Ye Ling'er, and Princess Chen."

"We, congratulate your majesty on your happy marriage and wish you a long and happy marriage!"

The civil and military officials just stood up and bowed again, saying: "We congratulate Your Highness on your happy marriage and wish you a long and happy marriage!"

Li Chengze nodded again and said, "My dear ministers, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the civil and military officials stood up, the eunuch said, "The auspicious time has arrived. Your Majesty, please move to the 'Fengqi Palace' to offer sacrifices to the heavens with the two ladies."

The emperor was different from ordinary people. When he got married, he only offered sacrifices to the heaven and worshipped his ancestors, and did not visit his parents.

After all, the emperor is the ruler and everyone else is his subjects.

From ancient times to the present, it is always the ministers who pay homage to the king. How can it be possible for the king to participate in the ministers' affairs?

Then, Li Chengze stood up, shook off the sleeves of his dragon robe, and walked out of the hall.

The civil and military officials who were originally standing in the hall began to make way for Li Chengze to pass.

After Li Chengze walked out of the hall, they gathered together and quickly followed him.

Lin Ruofu, who was in the crowd, looked at Li Chengze walking slowly in front of him, and the heavy stone in his heart was finally put down.

Just now, when he heard that His Majesty was assassinated again, his heart almost jumped out.

We have finally elected a new king, what should we do if he is assassinated?

It is impossible to choose someone from other princes to succeed to the throne.

If this is true, then wouldn't all the work done before be in vain?

Fortunately, after the battle started just now, the things we worried about did not happen.

Moreover, what Lin Ruofu did not expect was that there were so many ninth-rank masters around Li Chengze. No wonder he remained calm just now. Even when there was an assassin rushing towards him, he remained very calm.

Since Li Chengze has such power, it will be more difficult for someone to kill him in the future.

So, that’s the best!
Starting from tomorrow, Wan'er will be the imperial concubine, and everything will be settled.

When Lin Ruofu thought of this, he felt even happier.

Afterwards, Li Chengze led the civil and military officials towards Fengqi Palace.

Just as everyone was leaving the "Taiji Hall", two figures stood on the roof. One of them was wearing a green Taoist robe, holding a white feather fan, and looking at Li Chengze's back.

The other man had gray hair and beard, wore a tattered cotton jacket, and had only one arm.

They were Li Chungang and Jia Xu.

At this time, Jia Xu gently waved the white feather fan in his hand and said, "Brother Li, I have to thank you for this."

"If you hadn't acted in time, the matter wouldn't have been resolved so quickly."

As early as when the assassin from "Tai Chi Hall" appeared, several ninth-grade masters were directly killed by Li Chungang.

Otherwise, it would be a bit troublesome for Xiang Yu and others to deal with it.

Li Chungang smiled and said, "It's just my duty."

"It's nothing surprising to see a group of ninth-rank juniors."

"However, I didn't expect that these people would hide so deeply. After searching the palace for several days, I still couldn't find them."

"If they hadn't taken the initiative today, it would have been really troublesome."

Jia Xu also nodded and said, "Yes, that's true."

"I'm afraid these people were hidden by Emperor Qing a long time ago. They are not allowed to take action unless it is absolutely necessary."

Li Chungang said: "Having said that, there is one thing that I am a little curious about."

"Your Highness is obviously the biological son of Emperor Qing, why is he not treated well?"

"If the previous crown prince hadn't died, it would be fine if Emperor Qing wanted to use Your Highness as his whetstone to hone his character."

"But now that the crown prince is dead, all the civil and military officials in the court, as well as the other princes, are willing to support your highness to succeed to the throne."

"Things have come to this point, but Emperor Qing still wants Your Highness to die. This is really incomprehensible."

Jia Xu shook his head and sighed, "At this moment, I also can't guess."

"Especially, the performance of these assassins today is even more infuriating and shameful."

"Emperor Qing is already dead, but he still wants to kill Your Highness. Where in the world can there be such a father? Even a tiger will not eat its own cubs."

Li Chungang shook his head and smiled, "It is said that the imperial family has been ruthless since ancient times. This is indeed true."

"In fact, Your Highness should not be the emperor."

"Wouldn't it be wonderful if I could travel the world and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature?"

Jia Xu said: "You are right. Your Majesty should not be the emperor."

"But do you think there is anyone in the entire Qing Kingdom who is more suitable than him to be the emperor?"

"That's true." Li Chungang nodded and said, "Except for him, no one else is worthy."

Jia Xu said: "Don't worry, His Majesty will have his own arrangements, we just need to wait."

Li Chungang smiled and said, "Today, the palace is hosting a banquet for all the ministers, so there must be some fine wine stored inside."

"Let's go and try it first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped down first and walked forward slowly.

Jia Xu shook his head, turned over and jumped down, chasing after him.

……

After a while.

In front of the "Fengqi Palace", Li Chengze brought two goddesses to offer sacrifices to the sky. All the civil and military officials in the court came to pay their respects, and the scene was very lively.

With the words "the ceremony is over", the two ladies wearing red veils and phoenix skirts returned to the bedroom. However, Li Chengze and all the civil and military officials in the court entered the main hall to drink.

Autumn of the first year of Zhenguan.

Crown Prince Li Chengze ascended the throne in the "Taiji Hall" and held his wedding in the "Fengqi Palace" with two concubines to offer sacrifices to the heaven.

At this point, the whole country celebrates!
The era of the new emperor began.
