this……
Dongfang Yu felt indifferently in his heart, and immediately said: "The eldest son has been smart since he was a child, and he has been favored by his father. The throne of Dawu... depends entirely on his father's decision."
Hmm~
Emperor Xuanwu couldn't help but nodded, and then shook his head, "Among the six emperors, you are the most mysterious and forbearing. Now! Your power is the most outstanding among the six emperors. I want you to help you in the future." younger brother."
Before Dongfang Yuda agreed!
At this time, King Qi, King Chu, and King Yan also arrived at the Jiwu Side Hall at the same time. When they discovered that King Qin's Xuanjia Army was stationed outside the palace and had not occupied the palace, after inquiring, they found out that King Qin had already received the news that his majesty and his mother and concubines were all imprisoned in Jiwu Palace.
Worried about the safety of Concubine Luo and His Majesty, he took the lead and climbed to Jiwu Hall.
After hearing the news, the three emperors couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and the huge stone hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground.
"Report! The rescuers are late!"
The three emperors suddenly entered and knelt before Emperor Xuanwu.
At this time, Emperor Xuanwu was so weak that he had to use great strength to even speak.
"It's good to be here, I have something to say." Emperor Xuanwu said to the other three emperors.
Compared with the careful conversation with Dongfang Yu, his words were more direct when facing the three emperors, "After my death, the eighth prince Dongfang Chang will ascend the throne and become the new generation emperor of Dawu. Do you have anything to say."
In addition to the expressionless faces of King Qin and King Qi, the expressions of King Chu and King Yan were extremely ugly, obviously! The temptation of the throne is extremely great. How can it be allowed to hand over the throne to an eighth prince with no reputation?
Seeing that the Four Emperors were silent, Emperor Xuanwu continued to say specifically: "I know that the four of you all covet the throne, and! Among the four of you, you have a lot of troops. The throne of Dawu can be easily obtained."
"But if the four of you, plus Dongfang Jie, and the five emperors fight for the throne, they will definitely fight. Sooner or later, the world of Dawu will be in chaos."
"I have only one thing to say, whether you fight for it or not fight for it! No matter who takes the throne in the future, he will leave a way for your eighth brother to live without worries for the rest of his life. But now, this throne must be for the old man eight."
Emperor Xuanwu gave thousands of instructions, which can be said to have been painstaking. There is no room for chaos in Dawu at this time.
"My son, I obey!" Dongfang Yu was the first to respond.
Subsequently, other emperors also agreed one after another.
Emperor Xuanwu's meaning was obvious enough. The current throne belongs to Dongfang and no one can touch it, but after that! Whether you are fighting for hegemony or surrendering! So don't hurt Dongfang Chang even a hair.
"The edict of abdication has been drafted. Please remember it carefully. I am leaving!"
Suddenly! After explaining the last matters, Emperor Xuanwu finally breathed his last breath.
The prince has not yet been dealt with. As a rebel, Dawu has become a mess. This may be the last gift that Emperor Xuanwu left to Dongfang Chang. It is also a test!
"Your Majesty! (Father)"
Concubine Luo and other empresses all fell to their knees on the ground as if collapsed. Dongfang Chang and Dongfang Yue knelt on the ground, sobbing like their lungs were breaking.
The Yonko, on the other hand, lowered his head deliberately.
In November of the 603rd year of Dawu, Emperor Xuanwu died and reigned for twenty-three years.
The new emperor Dongfang Chang ascended the throne and was called Emperor Ren.
And on the third day after Emperor Xuanwu's death, it was also the day of Emperor Xuanwu's funeral.
The news of Emperor Dawu's death spread across the country like a hurricane in an instant, spreading to all states and counties as quickly as possible. During the national mourning in the Wu Kingdom, all the palace ministers from various states were covered with linen. King Chen Dongfangjie also returned to Luo Qi.
This guy came as soon as he came and brought all the 50,000 naval troops from Jingzhou with him.
Of course, he wouldn't be able to make it to the funeral, so he would have to stay at the mausoleum for three days at most.
Seven days later, on the seventh day after Emperor Xuanwu was buried in the mausoleum, the Dahua Sect, which had already joined forces with various states, finally launched a riot.
Before Emperor Ren could ascend the throne, Huangpao united the states and launched an uprising.
Except for Yunzhou and Liangzhou, there were uprisings in Dengzhou, Taizhou, Wanzhou, Yuzhou, Nanzhou, Luzhou and Qingzhou. The main riots of the Dahua Sect originated from Qingzhou, Wanzhou, Taizhou, Wanzhou, and Yuzhou. Huangpao also moved from the Dengzhou headquarters to Yuzhou.
Launched an unprecedented peasant uprising (cult uprising). This uprising was led by Huang Pao. The number of participants reached as many as three million, including more than two million ordinary people, and one million young men participated in the battle. They were all bewitched by the ideas of Dahua Cult and their thoughts were confused.
certainly! Most people are still relatively latent in being deceived. As long as Huangpao is destroyed, the Great Hua Sect will naturally fall apart.
Moreover, the main reason is that muscle hunger is a common problem among people. Otherwise, who would want to have nothing to do when they are full and seek refuge in some great religion?
Luo Qi! Jiwu Palace of the Imperial Capital.
With the support of the ministers, Dongfang Chang finally ascended the throne among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Chief Dongfang had just come to power and basically had no confidants, not even his closest ministers.
But he still asked for simplicity when he ascended the throne. The Great Northern Expedition has almost exhausted all the national power, and extravagance will only waste too much. Moreover, they will be criticized by the people.
"Announcement! All the ministers are here to see you."
the little eunuch shouted.
The five emperors and ministers went to the palace one after another.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
Looking at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the Five Emperors, Chang Dongfang subconsciously felt a little cowardly and looked specifically at the little eunuch next to him.
After the death of the old eunuch, the young eunuch became Emperor Xuanwu's personal eunuch, so! As the late emperor's personal eunuch, his identity was naturally not simple.
The young eunuch winked at Emperor Ren and said, Your Majesty, you have to do this in person. He is a little eunuch who lives with him, and it is inconvenient for him to get involved in politics.
after all! Since ancient times, the most taboo thing about court affairs is the interference of eunuchs.
"Then...all my dear friends, let's all live together for the rest of our lives!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The ministers stood up.
"Well, this morning, let's talk about Prince Dongfang's rebellion and how the party should deal with it."
"Come here! Take Dongfang Zhi, Cai Zhong, Ye Yi and others to the palace."
"promise!"
Immediately! A group of rebel ministers were escorted to the palace.
This rebellion did great harm to the court. However, this also indirectly helped the imperial court to undergo a major purge. The great Sima Wang Mingzhang has been cut off from both sides by the prince, and may have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Cai Zhong, Ye Yi, these three ministers, could only decline in this rebellion. The four great Luo Qi families were originally extremely powerful, but now! All of them have greatly weakened their strength.
The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit, the winner is the hero, the loser has nothing.
