Chapter 300 The Emperor's Last Edict
The sudden arrival of the Empress Dowager, and what she said as soon as she appeared, made everyone stunned.

What happened?Not only did the queen mother appear in a grand attire, but she even held a bright yellow imperial decree in her hand. This utterance was a sentence that shocked everyone.

They all thought that Prince Chun's appointment as crown prince was a certainty, but the emperor was about to announce his decree, so why did the Queen Mother suddenly come here?

Emperor Kang He looked at the queen mother who was slowly walking forward, his expression was inexplicable, but the stiff fingers still betrayed his dissatisfaction and nervousness.

"Why did the queen mother come here?"

The queen mother looked at the emperor's unknown face, but she knew it clearly. She knew that the emperor was very angry, but she had to come to this matter, even if there was a quarrel with the emperor, she had to come.

"Emperor, the fourth child must never be registered as the crown prince."

"Oh? Why did the queen mother say that?"

"Prince, the fourth child's natal family is..."

Just as the Queen Mother was about to speak, she was suddenly interrupted by Emperor Kang He, who said in a dark tone:
"Mother, don't forget that the mother of the fourth child has already been named a queen by me. Also, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. I still erected the iron plate outside the harem myself. Mother, are you going to take the lead and set an example?"

Everyone was so shocked by the emperor's words that they knelt on the ground and dared not get up.

The emperor has always respected the queen mother, but at this moment the emperor and the queen mother are actually facing each other.

There is another one, the emperor must have been happy with the fourth child in his heart, otherwise why would he be so angry.

But why did the Queen Mother disagree with Prince Chun as the crown prince?
Lu Yifeng couldn't figure it out, he just lowered his head and pricked up his ears to listen to everything above.

He remembered that the queen mother didn't like him when he was a child, but after the mother concubine passed away, the queen mother treated him better and better. Even when he went out to study, every time he went back, the queen mother would always ask him how he was. Also very concerned.

He always thought that the queen mother loved him very much, but now, the queen mother came out to oppose him as the crown prince, which made him a little unexpected.

Lu Xuanqing guessed a little bit, it seems that what he said to his wife before was correct, the queen mother really dislikes Lu Yifeng, but is it really because grandpa was a criminal minister?But that was an unjust case that occurred when the Empress Dowager Xigong was there, and His Majesty personally vindicated it, so no matter what, he would never bring it up again.

So why does the queen mother insist on objecting?

But the other princes suddenly became excited, there was a show, they thought they had no play, now there is a play, I hope the Queen Mother can be more supportive, and can't let the fourth son inherit the throne.

But why is the queen mother unwilling to let the fourth child inherit the throne?This is really strange.

It's just that they are destined not to hear the reason, because His Majesty's sentence that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics made the Empress Dowager hold the Minghuang imperial decree in her hand and shout loudly;
"The first emperor's decree, the emperor's son Wei Bang accepts the decree!"

Everyone wanted to put their heads on the ground now, oh my god, the last emperor's last decree, the empress dowager even invited the first emperor's last decree.

The former emperor passed away very early, and the queen mother at that time was only a virtuous concubine in the palace, but because her majesty passed away, Emperor Kanghe was named emperor, so the queen mother was honored as the mother queen mother, and the original queen was revered as the holy mother queen mother , That's why there are two empress dowagers in the East and West Palaces.

And the queen at the time had nothing to do, and she was also the princess of the Qi country. For a while, she controlled the government and turned the young Emperor Kanghe into a puppet.

If not, everyone knows that the empress dowager has a copy of the last emperor's edict in her hands, and I am afraid that Emperor Kanghe and the empress dowager have died long ago.

However, the Empress Dowager Xigong was searched for countless times back then, and no one knew where the Empress Dowager hid the imperial decree.

Even when Emperor Kanghe won the victory in such a difficult environment, quelled the coup, and even secured his position, the queen mother never asked for an imperial edict.

If it hadn't been recorded by the censor himself, everyone would have thought that the queen mother didn't have anything in her hands.

But in such a difficult environment, the empress dowager has never issued an imperial edict. What is the meaning of inviting the imperial edict suddenly at this time?
"The late emperor ordered that the fourth prince, Wei Huai'an, should not be canonized as the heir apparent, hereby!"

Everyone was surprised, Queen Mother, can you say a few more words?Can the imperial edict not be so simple?

But some of the kneeling people raised their heads and meowed secretly. It seems that there is indeed only one line of characters on the imperial decree, which is very short. Because I dare not look at it openly, I can only see this little trace.

But even this little bit is enough, at least Prince Chun doesn't need to be registered as the prince anymore.

After Emperor Kang He waited for the Queen Mother to finish reading the imperial decree, he had already clenched his fists tightly, and it was also because this person was his own mother, otherwise, he would have been dragged down and quartered.

It's just that the emperor's decree had come out at this moment, and Emperor Kanghe endured it again and again, then stood up and looked at the fourth brother who was kneeling on the ground with a dark expression, but still stretched out his hands to receive the imperial decree.

"My son obeys the order!"

The queen mother breathed a sigh of relief, her face was not as serious as before, and even softened a bit, as if she had become the kind old lady before.

She opened her mouth and wanted to say a few more words, but Kang Hedi suddenly said to the servant next to the queen mother:
"Send the empress dowager back to the palace. The harem is not allowed to engage in politics. This is the Showa shop for discussing state affairs. Please go back to the palace, the empress dowager."

"Prince, you..."

"Send the queen mother back to the palace!"

"Yes!"

"The servants who are taken care of by the queen mother are really disadvantaged. Except for the chief eunuch and the mother, all of them will be executed!"

Everyone was terrified, oh my god, is Emperor Kang He, who has always been so filial to the Queen Mother, going to slap the Queen Mother in the face?

The people around the empress dowager were executed, and in front of so many ministers, didn't these two always have a deep affection between mother and child?Hey, is this about to fall out?
The queen mother was really angry, her face was pale, and she almost fainted, but Kang Hedi was obviously not to be outdone, and didn't even take a step forward, but yelled at Zhang Quan'an:

"Slave dog, are you blind? Don't send the queen mother back to the palace, let the imperial doctor treat her well, and those who don't take good care of her will all be killed."

"Yes, the slave obeys."

Zhang Quan'an grew up with Emperor Kang He, so how could he not know that His Majesty was angry? The queen mother slapped His Majesty in the face like this, how could it be possible for an emperor not to fight back?The Empress Dowager is really confused this time. Your Majesty begged her so much at the beginning, and she didn't come up with an imperial decree. Why did she have to invite her at this time this time?
Weird, really weird.
