After the seventh day, the emperor was about to go to the funeral, and the prince's whereabouts were unknown. Although the emperor was killed by King Ning, there were not many people who saw the truth at that time.

What King Ning spread to the outside world was that the emperor was injured by the Heavenly Demon Sect and died without treatment. Yes, only the prince's master, the leader of the Tianmo Sect.

As for the reason why the prince harmed the emperor, King Ning said it was a bit outrageous, because the emperor found out that the prince had poisoned Chu Yunxi and wanted to abolish the prince, so the prince took the risk and had the emperor killed.

These words are true and false, specious, and the reasons behind are a bit far-fetched. However, the change of imperial power has always been dominated by the winner and the loser. The reason is not important at all. What matters is who is more capable and who can occupy Upwind will do.

In the absence of the crown prince, Chu Yunyao presided over the emperor's funeral in the name of Prince Ning's son. Pei Xiaoqing and the others were also the daughters-in-law of the clan, so they naturally also attended the funeral.

On the first seven days, Pei Xiaoqing asked Nanny Zhou and Nanny Rong to stay in the mansion to look after Chu Yunxi, and she brought Zisang Qinghuai, and the princess brought Nanny Li into the palace.

White gauze floated around the entire Forbidden City, and there was a strong sense of sadness and Xiao Su in the air, as well as a faint smell of blood.

Pei Xiaoqing and the concubine entered the space together in a carriage, and the palace was full of manuscripts. All the women in the palace were busy in the palace, all dressed in hemp belts.

Pei Xiaoqing and the princess walked to the Shou'an Hall together, where the emperor's coffin was placed.

Kneeling civil and military officials on both sides of the coffin, many confidant ministers who survived beside the emperor cried faintly, more sad than the dead father.

Before Pei Xiaoqing's eyes came the emperor's warm eyes and a kind and peaceful smile. When he saw him for the last time, he felt ashamed that he didn't think of Chu Yunxi and made Chu Yunxi suffer so much. He also said, who Saying that a blind man cannot inherit the throne?

At that time, Pei Xiaoqing was very happy, thinking that the emperor would trust Chu Yunxi more in the future, but who knew, after that, she would never see this kind elder again.

Standing at the head of the officials, King Ning stood upright and did not kneel down. Seeing that the members of the clan and ministers and wives were standing on both sides, almost all of them were present, he asked for the sacrificial oration to be read out.

The old prime minister did not fall down during these several cleanings, and still occupied the position of prime minister. Pei Xiaoqing saw Huang's father, Huang Shangshu, Mr. Pei, and Hai Qing from the crowd. With their heads down, there was a sad look on their faces. More people, especially those who supported the prince in the past, did not dare to reveal too much and could only bear it silently.

The prince's coup is not very popular. In the eyes of loyal ministers, it is a retrograde act, disordering ministers and thieves, killing brothers and seizing power, which is unorthodox.

But the prince has recently killed decisively to stop his anger with killing. Many people dare not speak out, so they have to surrender.

But there are also those who are completely dissatisfied, for example, Hai Qing, he is the most upright person, knowing that the prince is usurping power, how can he be willing to submit to such a person?

However, although Hai Qing is upright, he is not the kind of fool. He would not accuse King Ning before the emperor proclaimed himself emperor and had no evidence.

After the old prime minister read out the sacrificial oration, he cleared his throat and said, "The emperor's funeral, the crown prince has no virtue and is unbearable to be a king.
