Chapter 708 The Great Chaos of Western Xia ([-])

"City Lord Li, this is not a place to talk, the death of the emperor..."

Ye Lurong wiped away her tears, and then said: "After all, you can't speak for outsiders..."

After all, Ye Lurong gave Li Ba a winky look, Li Ba frowned, and said inwardly: What a goblin born to be charming!

So Li Ba brought Li Ningling, Yelurong and Wuyi to the bedroom.

After going up the stairs, Yelurong suddenly covered her face and burst into tears, and Wu Yishi also cried with Yelurong.

"You two sisters-in-law, this is..." Li Ba asked in confusion.

Ye Lurong pointed to the stairs and said: "Today when the emperor returned to the palace, I was delighted with Empress Wuyi, and we fell in love with the emperor, but the emperor's golden sore broke out, and he was in great pain..."

As she spoke, Yelurong cried again, her expression was so sad that she couldn't speak, she could only cover her mouth and burst into tears!

Still did not Yi continued: "After that...the emperor seemed to go crazy, and rolled all the way to here on the ground..."

"And then?" Li Ba listened, and asked with concern, but after seeing the stairs, he seemed to have vaguely guessed something.

"Then..." Yelu Rong sobbed and replied: "Then the emperor rolled down from here, the poor emperor... suffered the pain of the golden sores, suffered a lot, and finally... when he finally landed, his head was thrown by the stairs. The horn of the wood was pierced to the temple..."

"That's it..." Like singing a double reed, Wu Yi and Ye Lurong finally finished their story with each sentence: "Just like this, the emperor finally fell down and never got up again..."

Hearing this, Li Ba frowned, looked at Yelurong's bedroom again, and finally left the harem without saying anything, pulling Li Ningling.

After leaving the harem, Li Ba immediately summoned the ministers to discuss the funeral for Li Yuan, but Zhang Min, the admonishing doctor, said: "Master Li, why did the emperor die so suddenly?"

Li Ba said noncommittally: "The empress said it was a golden sore, and then the emperor was in unbearable pain, and finally stumbled and fell down the stairs, and was stabbed to the temple by a hard wood!"

Li Yuan's death is really similar to Yelurong and Wuyi's narration!
It was indeed when Li Yuan was thrown down the stairs by Li Ningling, he was stabbed to the temple by the sharp corner of the stairs, and Li Yuancai died. Of course... According to Yelurong and Wuyishi, when Li Yuancheng was in love with them, Accidentally broke out the golden sore, and then fell down the stairs in pain, and concealed all the things related to Li Ningling in the middle.

With the empress and concubine testifying together, the minister naturally didn't dare to say anything, so Zhang Min said: "City Master Li, what I think the emperor thinks, we can't say anything now!"

"Master Zhang's meaning..." Li Ba asked back: "Should we keep the funeral in secret?"

"En!" Zhang Min nodded, and said to Li Ba and Li Ningling: "Now our Xixia country is in danger, like a building that is about to collapse! If the news of the emperor's death is announced at this time, I am afraid that the hearts of Xixia soldiers and people will be chaotic. The consequences...don't even think about it!"

Zhang Min speaks in a polite manner, but it hits the nail on the head!
Only then did Li Ba come to his senses, nodded and said, "That's right! Mr. Zhang is right. We really can't act hastily on matters concerning the emperor!"

"But..." Someone said again: "A country can't... a day without a king!"

Hearing this sentence, all the ministers were not sure about Li Ba's thoughts. After all, Li Ba had the military power in the Xingqing Mansion, so when they talked about the important affairs of the monarch, they didn't dare to look at Li Ningling.

This shocked Li Ningling, and then he glanced at Li Ba.

Li Ba has always been famous, and this is the reputation that Li Ba has earned in the Jianghu in the northwest over the years. He is highly skilled in martial arts and has military power, so at this time, the minister naturally chose to listen to Li Ba.

But Li Ba is precisely because he was born in Jianghu and has a good relationship with Li Yuan. How could he take advantage of Li Ningling at this time?
And... Li Ba himself said: "For the matter of the king, the prince is already in charge of the country, so... let's continue to supervise the country. We can't announce the death of the emperor yet, so naturally... we can't make the prince the governor of the country." God!"

It turned out that Li Ba had no ambition to snatch the seat of the Xixia monarch at all, which made Li Ningling heave a sigh of relief, and made these ministers even more unpredictable about Li Ba's thoughts.

With a mind of experimentation and fear, after hearing Li Ba's words, Li Ningling hurriedly said: "Uncle Huang... I think that I am not as talented as Uncle Huang in terms of martial arts and resourcefulness. Now Xixia is at a critical time. Uncle Huang, don't decline, for matters of supervising the country, and the position of the monarch, it stands to reason that Uncle Huang should be in charge..."

When Li Ba heard this, his face changed, and he shouted at Li Ningling: "Why did the prince say that? I, Li Ba, are brothers with the emperor, and uncles and nephews with the prince. Besides, I was born in the world and I have always been lazy. How can I do that?" Be worthy of the position of the king?"

Li Ningling thought this was just Li Ba's evasion, so he said: "Uncle Huang, it is precisely because Uncle Huang and Emperor Father are brothers that we need Uncle Huang to stand up when the country is in trouble!"

"Brother Ning!" Li Ba's face became serious, and then he knelt down in front of Li Ningling and said to him: "You are the prince, and now that the emperor is dead, you are the emperor of Xixia. No one can change this." The truth! Although I, Li Ba, have the military power now, it is precisely because the emperor trusts me, Li Ba, that I am Li Ba today... Don't talk about giving up the throne! Minister... Li Ba is willing to serve Xixia, I have done my best and died, and from today onwards, Prince Li Ningling will be enthroned as emperor, and the prince will be invited to be enthroned after the enemies of the Southern Dynasty are repelled!"

Seeing Li Ba knelt down to Li Ningling, the minister also quickly knelt down to Li Ningling.

In this way, Li Ningling temporarily became the uncrowned king of Xixia!

Li Ningling finally saw Li Ba's determination, and understood that Li Ba did not have the ambition to become emperor, so he was happy in his heart.

After the ministers paid homage to Li Ningling, they all went to deal with things again.

The emperor died, and they couldn't mourn, so they could only try their best to conceal the news of Li Yuan's death.

After the ministers left, Li Ningling said to Li Ba: "Uncle Dayi, under the emperor's nine springs, he must be proud of the emperor's uncle! I... want to make the emperor's uncle king, I don't know what the emperor's uncle thinks?"

Originally, Li Ba was Li Yuan's cousin, and he should have been crowned king long ago, but Li Ba kept refusing because he yearned for the life in the Jianghu. After Li Yuan repeatedly persuaded him, Li Ba reluctantly accepted the offer to stay and build Yipintang. The thing is, as for the title, he can only accept the position of a Xiliang city lord.

Hearing Li Ningling's words, Li Ba said: "The crown prince has a heart, and the matter of becoming king can be discussed later! I don't know if the crown prince has found out. The death of the emperor is probably not as simple as the queen and No Yi said! "

PS: The update is complete, it's a bit late, and I'm sorry for delaying everyone's rest!
