When Zhao Wei heard this, he suddenly smiled and said: "Queen Mother, look, this is coming."
The trace of sadness on Mrs. Hu's face was instantly wiped away, her face glowed with excitement, and then she quickly calmed down, straightened her appearance, and then walked out of the front hall with Zhao Wei.
Outside the gate, two people were standing there.
One of them was Chen Daban, who was holding an imperial edict.
But when she saw the man standing next to Chen Daban, the smile on Mrs. Hu's face suddenly froze.
'Why didn't Xu Shoufu come? Why him? '
Mrs. Hu was filled with doubts.
That person is none other than the great scholar Zhuo Yungui!
But Xu Shoufu, whom Hu had high hopes for, did not show up.
'Perhaps Xu Shoufu is too busy to escape.'
Hu could only comfort herself in her heart.
Zhao Wei, who was on the side, had already been impatient. Before Chen Daban could read the edict, he stepped forward and prepared to take the edict into his hands.
Chen Daban's body flashed slightly and he avoided Zhao Wei's grasping palm. Then he frowned and asked with a smile on his face, "What do you mean, eldest prince?"
When Mrs. Hu saw this, she quickly stopped her and said, "Your Majesty, don't be ridiculous!"
Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhao Wei raised his eyebrows and said with a arrogant face: "What are you talking about? Please hand over the imperial edict to me as soon as possible, otherwise, don't blame me for confiscating your family and exterminating your clan after I ascend the throne!" "
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed the edict again.
A cold flash flashed in Chen Daban's eyes, and the smile on his face instantly turned into a cold smile.
Madam Hu saw this and wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
Zhao Wei, who was at the seventh level of martial arts, moved as slowly as a turtle in Chen Daban's eyes. He easily dodged Zhao Wei's palm, and then slapped Zhao Wei hard on the face.
"Snapped!"
Just hearing a crisp slap in the face, Zhao Wei's body instantly flew backwards under the terrifying force.
With a "bang" sound, Zhao Wei's whole body hit the outer wall of the palace, was blocked by the formation of the outer wall, and bounced to the ground before he came to a complete stop.
The left side of his cheek was bruised and swollen, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, as if he had fainted.
"Your Majesty."
Mrs. Hu saw it and felt pain in her heart. She quickly ran over and wanted to help Zhao Wei up.
"Concubine Hu, don't worry. Chen Daban's attack was measured. The eldest prince just fainted. With his body, he recovered in ten breaths at most."
At this moment, Zhuo Yungui on the side explained with a smile.
Hearing this, Mrs. Hu stopped, looked at Chen Daban with a cold face, and asked sternly: "Mr. Zhuoge, you are a bachelor, what crime should this slave commit?"
Hearing this, Zhuo Yungui said with a smile: "I'm sorry, why did the noble concubine say this?"
"Just now Wei Chen just saw that the eldest prince went crazy while practicing martial arts and hit his head against the wall."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Wei groaned and slowly woke up.
When Chen Daban took action, he had already measured the force so that Zhao Wei could be punished without being seriously injured.
Hearing Zhuo Yungui's words, Zhao Wei raised his fingers tremblingly and was about to speak, but when he saw Chen Daban's cold eyes, he immediately hesitated.
"Your Majesty, you're awake."
Seeing Zhao Wei wake up, Mrs. Hu quickly ran over to help Zhao Wei up and leaned against the corner.
"Okay, Concubine Hu, we are here today. We have important matters, so we don't want to waste time here!"
When Chen Daban saw that Zhao Wei did not dare to talk nonsense anymore, his face straightened and he shouted loudly: "Hu's order is accepted!"
Mrs. Hu quickly pulled Zhao Wei to kneel on the ground and lowered his head to receive the order.
Chen Daban then began to read out the edict: "The late emperor suddenly died and returned to the Five Elements. The second prince Zhao Ning inherited the order of the Emperor and Heaven. Hong Xiu, the saint, followed the order of the Emperor Daxing and entered the ancestral hall. Three days later, he will report to heaven and earth. , that is, the throne of emperor"
"Second Prince Zhao Ning?"
Hu's eyes were in a trance for a while. She didn't expect that an accident would happen in the end, and the second prince Zhao Ning would ascend the throne.
However, the edict has been established at this time, and there is no possibility of changing it.
And for the Hu family, although the second prince Zhao Ning has a bit of a wooden fish head, he is his biological son after all, and his status will not be affected.
And under his own influence, his position will only become more entrenched in the future.
But just when she raised her hands to receive the order, the eldest prince Zhao Wei couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up from the ground with a bang, his eyes widened and roared: "I don't accept this edict." has a problem!"
When Chen Daban heard this, he glanced at Zhao Wei with pitiful eyes, and asked coldly: "So, the eldest prince suspects that the decisions of the Book Sage, the Empress, and Zhuo Shoufu are false?"
"when"
Zhao Wei tilted his neck and was about to retort loudly, but Hu covered his mouth from behind and couldn't say anything.
"Huang Er, are you crazy?"
Mrs. Hu covered Zhao Wei's mouth, with blood-red eyes, and roared in Zhao Wei's ear.
Zhao Wei woke up from Hu's mad roar and took another look. Chen Daban, who was already gearing up, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He could doubt the Queen's words, but if he really dared to doubt the Sage and True Immortal, he might not survive the night.
If he really dared to finish those words, I'm afraid even Concubine Hu wouldn't be able to protect him.
He squeezed the cold sweat from his palms, immediately knelt on the ground, and said tremblingly: "Of course I don't dare. Zhao Weijin obeys his will."
A trace of regret flashed through the eyes of Chen Daban and Zhuo Yungui at the same time. They had heard about Zhao Wei's behavior a long time ago and wanted to take advantage of this to get rid of Zhao Wei and Concubine Hu. Unfortunately, Mrs. Hu still knew that some things should not be said nonsense. In the end Escaped this disaster.
"Hu Guifei, the imperial edict has been delivered. Please inform the second prince Zhao Ning in person that he will ascend the throne in three days and will go to the Immortal Soul Palace to keep vigil for the late emperor tomorrow!"
"I understand, but I would like to congratulate Chief Zhuo!"
Concubine Hu took the edict and congratulated coldly.
At this time, she knew very well that if Zhuo Yungui could become the chief assistant, Xu Chief Assistant and Gao Ge Lao might have fallen, and the things she had planned before seemed to have been in vain.
Zhuo Yungui and Chen Daban looked at Zhao Wei's miserable state, chuckled, and then turned around and left.
As soon as the two of them left, Zhao Wei couldn't bear it anymore. He pointed at his swollen cheeks and cried: "Mother, look at the emperor, he was beaten so hard by that slave. You have to make the decision for the child." ah."
Concubine Hu gently stroked Zhao Wei's cheek and said distressedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, when Ning'er ascends the throne, I will seek justice for you!"
"Mom, is there no room for change in this matter? I am the legitimate eldest prince."
Zhao Wei asked with a gloomy face after hearing this. He still placed a ray of hope on Concubine Hu, hoping that she could fight for him.
Concubine Hu sighed softly and shook her head in confusion: "How can this matter be so easy? If the Book Saint and True Immortal can come forward, I'm afraid there will be someone who nods. Your Majesty, please feel aggrieved. Ning'er is exactly the same age." You are still young, so when the time comes, mother will fight for you and try to keep you in Xuanyang."
The rule when Daxuan was founded was that when the new emperor ascends the throne, his brothers and sisters must leave Xuanyang and be named vassal kings in other places.
This is what Zhao Wei is most worried about.
After leaving Xuanyang, the political and economic center of Daxuan, it would not be so easy for him to make a comeback.
After hearing Concubine Hu's words, Zhao Wei's expression softened a little and he said nothing more. However, there was a faint flash of coldness in his eyes.
