"The auspicious time has come."
With a loud shout, Prince Chen Hong walked step by step towards the altar in front.
There are palace ladies equipped with dragon robes and crowns.
As long as he puts on the dragon robe and crown, he becomes the official emperor and is respected by all people.
However, only halfway there, a eunuch hurried over.
Before anyone could reach him, the sound had already reached him.
"No, no, no, a large army has surrounded the palace."
"Where did the army come from?"
The Queen frowned and asked.
"This old slave doesn't know either."
The eunuch said tremblingly: "There are people outside the city gate, and you can't see the edge at a glance."
"Who led the team?"
Hao Runxiang asked again.
"It seems to be General Liu Dingbei of Zhenbei."
The eunuch replied: "But it's a bit far away, so I can't see it clearly."
"This old man doesn't care about His Majesty's funeral. Now that the Crown Prince has ascended the throne, he has come here with his troops. What does he want to do? Rebellion?"
Hao Runxiang was extremely dissatisfied.
Seeing that his son is about to put on the dragon robe, put on the crown, and sit on the throne.
She will also become the empress dowager and take charge of the power in the court.
It's strange that something like this happened at this time, and he was in a good mood.
She wished she could tear Liu Dingbei into pieces.
Then he scolded angrily: "What are you still doing?"
"Hurry up and lead your troops to chop off Liu Dingbei's dog's head as a warning to others."
"Today my son ascends the throne, and no one can stop him."
"yes."
The Imperial Guards and city defenders beside her immediately took orders and left.
These people have already taken refuge.
In the Imperial Guard and the city defenders, there are titles, and they can also command some people.
Those people were scattered around, maintaining the order of the enthronement ceremony.
Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy.
Fortunately, those who could come had either surrendered to Hao Runxiang and were happy to see the prince ascend the throne.
Or just watching the excitement.
No one resisted anyway.
However, before those people could leave, a large group of people rushed in from the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Some were on horseback, some on foot.
A few hundred numbers.
All of them were wearing armor and holding weapons, looking majestic.
Especially the man at the front, a set of black armor covered his whole body tightly.
He was riding a war horse and holding a long sword in his hand.
Who is Liu Dingbei if he is not General Zhenbei?
There were several people following him.
Some wore armor, leaving only their faces exposed.
Like Zhao Ping, Li Hu, Gao Meng and others.
There was only one person in plain clothes, black tights, and her graceful figure was wrapped in a delicate and graceful shape. It was Ying Yi.
Hao Runxiang glanced around and didn't recognize anyone except Liu Dingbei.
She scolded: "Liu Dingbei, don't you know that today is the crown prince's coronation ceremony?"
"How dare you bring troops and horses here, do you want to cause trouble?"
"Come here, capture this traitor and chop off his head as a warning to others."
"Let me see who dares?!"
Liu Dingbei waved the long knife in his hand, immediately frightening those who were ready to move forward.
Who is Liu Dingbei?
That was an old general who fought on the battlefield.
I have been guarding the border for many years and have fought countless wars, large and small, with the enemy.
He is the God of War who was killed out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Its momentum is beyond human reach.
And his martial arts skills are also quite high.
He once participated in the martial arts test of the Dawei Dynasty, and he was far ahead of the competition. He was the well-deserved martial arts champion, many times higher than the second place.
Who has the courage and strength to chop off his head?
"Queen, you are the one who really wants to cause trouble, right?"
Liu Dingbei was shocked by the situation and said to Hao Runxiang: "How long has it been since your Majesty personally conquered the bandits?"
"According to the process, they should have just set up camp in Yuzhou at this time, and they haven't officially suppressed the bandits yet, right?"
"You actually cursed His Majesty's death and supported the crown prince's ascension to the throne. You are treason."
"I advise you to put these away quickly, and then go to the Ancestral Temple to eat fast, chant Buddha's name, and sincerely repent."
"Otherwise, when His Majesty comes back victorious, you will die."
"And you."
Liu Dingbei pointed at the soldiers again and said coldly: "As city defenders and imperial guards, you can only obey His Majesty's orders."
"Now that His Majesty is away, you are following the Queen to commit rebellion."
"Before it causes a big mistake, go back to the military camp and receive the punishment yourself."
"Perhaps Your Majesty will spare your life for the sake of your sincere repentance."
"Otherwise, the nine clans will be punished for the crime of rebellion."
"This, this, this..."
The soldiers were anxious and couldn't help but look at the queen.
He seemed to be asking, "Is His Majesty really dead?"
Hao Runxiang's face became uncertain.
Is His Majesty really dead?
She didn't know either.
But the rumor had spread, and she had to bite the bullet and proceed.
Besides, Qian Shi is her father, so he shouldn't be able to harm her.
Your Majesty must die.
Hao Runxiang said matter-of-factly: "His Majesty has really died in battle."
"Is there any evidence?"
Liu Dingbei asked, "Where is the body? Where is it?"
"Besides, even if His Majesty is really dead, shouldn't you be filial to His Majesty now?"
"A country cannot live without a king for a day."
Hao Runxiang argued.
"Yes, a country cannot live without a king for a day."
Liu Dingbei nodded, "But special things should be dealt with in special ways. Our Dawei Dynasty has a saying that the sun replaces the moon."
"The prince only needs to observe mourning for twenty-seven days."
"Even if I succeed to the throne in person, it will be fine."
"But where is His Majesty's mourning hall?"
"There is no body, no mourning hall, not even a person wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning. How can you make me believe it when you tell me that His Majesty is dead?"
"I……"
Hao Runxiang was choked and speechless.
He looked at the allies gathered around him.
Those people are not fools either.
Being an official in the capital has its own considerations.
Everyone knew that Liu Dingbei was the pinnacle of the Dawei Dynasty. Unless he fell, it would be difficult for the prince to ascend the throne.
However, there had been rumors that an assassin was assassinating Liu Dingbei.
Moreover, Hao Runxiang also swore to them that Liu Dingbei would die before the prince ascended the throne.
But Liu Dingbei Fei not only did not die, but instead led the soldiers to the enthronement ceremony.
At this time, who dares to support the queen?
All of them had their heads drooped and did not dare to say a word.
Even the minister from the Ministry of Rites stood up and spoke for Liu Dingbei, "Old General Liu is right. When His Majesty passes away, the prince should observe mourning for three years."
"Now there is no mourning hall, and no one wears sackcloth or mourns. The etiquette has been lost."
"I suggest that the Crown Prince's enthronement ceremony be postponed and His Majesty's body be transported back first for a safe burial."
"As long as it is confirmed that His Majesty is dead, even if he succeeds in the mourning hall, it will be fine."
"you……"
Hao Run was so fragrant that he was speechless.
"Queen, stop it."
Liu Dingbei sighed.
"Haha, hahaha."
Hao Runxiang laughed and said, "Stop?"
"I have done so many things, and now that my son is about to ascend the throne, you actually asked me to stop?"
"You are so naive."
"Your Majesty is not here. Today, I am the most powerful. You all must obey my orders."
"Liu Dingbei disturbed the crown prince's enthronement, which is a serious crime of rebellion. According to the law, the nine clans should be punished. I order you to take him down now. Anyone who disobeys will die."
While speaking, Hao Runxiang winked at the person next to her.
Those were the personal guards given to her by the Qian family.
She arranged him among the Forbidden Army in case of emergencies.
This is where it comes in handy.
After those people took the money, they had to eliminate disasters for others.
Without hesitation, he immediately waved the guy in his hand and rushed towards Liu Dingbei.
The people who were still hesitant at first, afraid of Liu Dingbei and not daring to go forward, saw this and gathered around him.
"You are looking for death."
Liu Dingbei shouted loudly and was about to lead the attack.
