now,
He was wearing a dragon robe.
On his head was an imperial crown.
He is the supreme emperor of this country.
He no longer cares about the position of prince.
The prince wore a white tunic, held another imperial edict, and respectfully came to the sixth prince and said,
"Your Highness, please send someone to read this imperial edict. The guilty minister is already a commoner."
The sixth prince raised his head, looked at him, and said calmly,
"But you are still my imperial brother. Only by asking the imperial brother to personally read my father's imperial edict can the world be convinced."
"Sinners obey."
Wang Zhen stood up, returned to her original position, and read loudly,
"The emperor was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict said:
Since ancient times, emperors have been passed down from generation to generation. They have established virtuous people but not direct descendants, and established talents but not established leaders.
A country should have a crown prince, so that it can be powerful in the world and stabilize the country.
The sixth son of the emperor, Wang Hao, has a clear distinction between right and wrong, and is close to the virtuous and distant daughter. I would like to inform the heaven and earth, the ancestral temple, the country, and the ancestors to appoint the sixth son Wang Hao as the crown prince. He will be in the East Palace to strengthen the lineage of ten thousand years and tie the heart of the world.
After my funeral, the crown prince will take over the throne and offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple to inform the world.
Admire this. "
"Your Majesty, Wang Hao, I would like to thank you for your kindness."
The sixth prince, no, the crown prince Wang Hao, knelt down and kowtowed, respectfully receiving the order.
Wang Zhen handed the two imperial edicts into Wang Hao's hands, and then knelt down.
Wang Hao received the two imperial edicts and turned to face the ministers.
The ministers shouted loudly,
"Long live my emperor!"
Wang Hao faced the ministers and said slowly,
"Zhang Qing, a scholar of Hanlin Academy."
"I'm here."
A young man stood up immediately.
"Post the imperial edict of Emperor Daxing to the entrance of the palace, copy it and circulate it to all the prefectures in Dachuan."
"I obey your orders."
"Take the criminals Wang Zhen and Wang Anqing to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and order the three divisions to interrogate them. I will personally review the testimony."
"According to the order!"
Immediately, guards came over and took the prince and Wang Anqing into the prison of the Criminal Department.
Then, Wang Hao continued to order,
"The Minister of Rites, the Minister of Rites, will immediately arrange for the emperor's funeral to be held."
"I obey your orders."
"The chief minister, Wang Anqing, has confessed his guilt and I demoted him from the position of chief minister. However, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and the court cannot be without a chief minister."
Wang Hao glanced at the ministers, and then his eyes fell on Chai Yuan.
"He was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the second assistant, Chai Yuan, and was promoted to the first assistant, with an official rank starting from the first rank."
"My lord, I obey your order!"
Chai Yuan paid homage.
"Congratulations to Mr. Chai Shouxu."
All the ministers congratulated in unison.
The two raised their heads and looked at each other.
Chai Yuan, I finally did what I promised you four years ago.
Wang Fugui's eyes were open and a smile appeared on his lips.
Chai Yuan looked at the other party with firm eyes. At this moment, the heroism in his chest could finally be vomited out.
That full of talent finally had a chance to be put to use.
Four years ago, in that carriage, Han Yun, who was still Qingyu, told him that by supporting the sixth prince to become emperor, he could be the first assistant to govern the country and the people, and show his ambition.
Now, the sixth prince could finally inherit the throne, and he, Chai Yuan, finally got the position of chief minister that he had dreamed of.
The future world will belong to them, the monarch and his ministers.
Han Yun looked at this scene and smiled unconsciously.
The dream of these two friends has finally come true.
However, the next second, Wang Fugui looked at Han Yun.
"The crown prince's Taibao, Zhenbei King Han Yun, listen to the title."
Han Yun looked at the other party's serious look and said with a smile,
"If you fart, you still expect me to kneel down for you?"
Wang Fugui also laughed and cursed,
"Dog thief."
The ministers knelt down and watched the monarch and ministers laughing and scolding, and no one dared to say a word.
"Han Yun, the Crown Prince and Taibao, has been promoted to the rank of Grand Master, with a first-rank official position. I hope that Grand Master Han will assist me in the future, govern the country and the people, protect our great rivers, and ensure peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
Prince Wang Hao announced loudly and solemnly.
Taishi Han Yun nodded and yawned.
"You should say, I accept the order and thank you."
Wang Fugui squinted his eyes and gritted his teeth.
"Your Majesty, please accept the order and thank me."
Han Yun cooperated casually. Today is Lao Liu's big day after all, so he might as well give him some face.
If it were anyone else, he, Han Yun, would not get involved in such nonsense.
"Congratulations to Master Han."
All the officials congratulated him in unison.
They knew that from this moment on, Han Yun's status was really above that of tens of thousands of people, not even below that one person.
He is the only king of a different surname in Dachuan who has a large number of soldiers. He has a high and powerful position and does not need to worship him when he enters the court.
He is the only first-class official in Dachuan and is the Grand Master.
He is the most important person who assists the monarch. Even if he is an emperor, he must respect the grand master and listen to his opinions.
He is the first person in history to have such power.
This situation may still occur if it occurs at the end of the dynasty, when powerful ministers control the government and sideline the emperor.
For example, for the sake of his own status, a powerful minister forced the emperor to give him the highest title, Wangjue, and give him the highest official position, Zhengyipin Taishi.
But this incident happened when the emperor personally took power, which can be said to be a rare spectacle in ancient and modern times.
Only then did the ministers truly understand the new monarch's trust in King Zhenbei and the extremely deep friendship between them. .
It can be said that with such great power, if Han Yun wanted to evade the emperor, it would be easy, but Wang Hao was not worried at all that he would do so.
But he is not worried. Others will be worried, and the ministers will be worried.
At this moment, the person they were wary of changed from a princeling official to the King of Zhenbei.
Before successfully seizing the throne, King Zhenbei was their biggest backer and helper.
After successfully seizing the throne, King Zhenbei became an overly powerful and unsettling factor.
After the matter was done, the Crown Prince Wang Hao waved the ministers to go back to their posts to do their work.
The powerful men brought by the Fugui Chamber of Commerce also sent them back.
There was no fight this time, which was the best result.
Then, Wang Fugui led everyone towards the imperial study room.
Not far after walking out of the main hall, the sky was covered with dark clouds and it started to rain heavily.
The weather in June can change at any time.
When Wang Fugui saw this, he immediately took off his dragon robe to protect Nian An from the rain. Nian An smiled and patted him, saying that he was not so pretentious, and took him directly to the imperial study.
After everyone entered the imperial study room, they shook the rain off their bodies.
Chai Yuan sighed,
"When the late emperor passed away, God couldn't bear it and shed tears."
He didn't know that the late emperor was killed by the sixth prince, and he thought he was really angry to death by the prince.
Wang Fugui walked into the imperial study room and looked at the surrounding decorations. He was moved by the scene and was speechless for a long time.
"What are you looking at? Come up and sit down. You are the emperor now, and that dragon chair is yours."
Han Yun smiled.
Wang Fugui shook his head and said,
"And I'm not the emperor yet. I just inherited the throne, but I haven't ascended the throne yet.
The normal process is that the emperor dies - the prince succeeds to the throne - the posthumous edict is issued - the filial piety is observed - the emperor ascends the throne - the throne of emperor - the empress dowager of the two palaces is respected - the edict is issued to the world. "
