244, new emperor(1/2)

"Enough!" Old Master Su interrupted Mrs. Su's eyes were sharp, and he didn't want to listen to Mrs. Su's continued words.

Mrs. Su stammered her neck, "I'm not wrong. If it were Concubine Gu and the child of the late emperor, she would be considered a prince, and the royal blood was also ripped off. But is he? He is clearly the evil seed of the guards. If it weren't for him, how could the Second Highness die?"

When Mrs. Su thought of her grandson, she was full of anger. If she was alive, the Su family would do their best to assist her, and would not rely on the Liu family and flatter King Heng like now.

How could Mr. Su not see the coldness in Xiao Zhan’s eyes? There were so many people waiting outside, but I don’t know what the situation was. Mr. Su really couldn’t see through Xiao Zhan and dared not offend him easily, but he didn’t expect Mrs. Su to leak Xiao Zhan’s bottom directly, and he wanted to come forward to cover Mrs. Su’s mouth.

"A evil seed?" Xiao Zhan curled his lips and slapped the table suddenly. The table shattered. The old lady Su was so scared that she shrank her neck and took a few steps back, and said unhappily, "The situation is over. You can't even protect your identity as a fake prince. I advise you to be more sensible or leave as soon as possible."

Xiao Zhan stood up and walked forward with a step forward. Old Madam Su breathed a sigh of relief, then his neck cooled down, and a silver sword was placed on his neck, pressing against his skin, which was refreshing and bone-blazing. Old Madam Su almost fainted.

"you……"

"Su, I offended you!" Lin Qi knocked the handle of the knife at Old Lady Su's neck without any mercy. Before Old Lady Su could scream, her eyes fainted.

Old Master Su's heart beat fast, and he looked at Xiao Zhan incredibly, "Second Your Highness, you..."

Lin Qi personally handcuffed Old Master Su. Old Master Su was angry and angry, unable to break free, and was dragged away. Not only Old Master Su was dragged away, but also the Su family, except for the women and children, were handcuffed.

"Father!" Mr. Su's nose and face were swollen, and he was limping. He saw that he had been tortured privately. There were traces of being beaten by a whip on his upper body, and blood stains were mottled.

"How dare Xiao Zhan do it!" Uncle Su was so angry that he stayed in the room. Suddenly, a group of people broke in, and no matter how he said it was punching and kicking. Uncle Su didn't even have the chance to resist.

Old Master Su's eyelids were pounding violently. He glanced at the man at the forefront of the crowd and lowered his voice, "Don't speak randomly for now, wait, there will be a result soon."

The palace was fighting to the death, and everyone forgot Xiao Zhan, but Xiao Zhan took advantage of the night to capture the soldiers' houses.

"Despicable!" Mr. Su finally knew what Xiao Zhan was going to do. As soon as he cursed, Lin Qi raised his hand and punched Mr. Su's nose hard. Mr. Su screamed, and the tip of his nose was so painful that it was even hard to breathe. A warm nose flowed down.

Uncle Su was beaten so hard that he didn't dare to speak anymore. He was holding his breath and looked at his father. Old Master Su held his heart tightly and looked up at the dark sky. The endless blackness made him feel a little breathless.

"Bei Jin is about to change the world!"

After a night, the sky was getting brighter in Kyoto City, and the people in the palace were arguing endlessly. No one remembered that there was a person like Xiao Zhan.

Until news from various families came, civil and military officials could no longer sit still, and Empress Ruan and Concubine Liu both changed slightly.

"Xiao Zhan!" Queen Ruan closed her eyes and her fingertips were shaking. She had been arguing for two days, but she didn't give in. She was about to have a result, but she ignored Xiao Zhan.

"What is he? He is neither the legitimate nor the eldest, and he is worthy of arguing with the throne?" Concubine Liu snorted coldly and did not take Xiao Zhan seriously at all. "My lords, even if Xiao Zhan dares to threaten his female relatives, there is no need to worry. He is always at the foot of Kyoto City, and he is guarding the palace gate. He is overestimating his own abilities alone!"

Queen Ruan quickly came back to her senses and always felt a very strange feeling in her heart. This was not as simple as Concubine Liu thought.

"Everyone, the most important thing at the moment is to establish a new emperor, so that Beijin can be stable as soon as possible, and let the late emperor rest in peace as soon as possible." Liu Guifei said.

After two days of trouble, the civil and military officials were exhausted. Several of them were hoarse in their throats. When they opened their mouths, they felt heartbroken, but there was still a sense of unyielding in their eyes.

Someone in the crowd shouted, "The Second Palace has come down, everyone looks sideways. Sure enough, seeing Xiao Zhan walk from a distance, calmly, take off his gorgeous clothes, wear mourning clothes, white clothes are not stained with dust, and have a stunning face. The more you get closer, everyone suddenly wakes up, and the inconspicuous Second His Highness scatters a breathtaking aura.

The limelight overshadowed King Heng far away.

King Heng frowned and was displeased with a cold face, "Second Emperor, the coffin of his father has been in the Political Consultative Hall for three days. Why are you here now? Do you care about your father in your heart?"

Xiao Zhan glanced at King Heng indifferently, "Of course I took it to heart, but the entrance of the palace was blocked and I was not allowed to enter and exit. I really had no choice. Thanks to my wife's family coming today, I was lucky to enter the palace and guard the father's emperor."

After changing the subject, Xiao Zhan asked again, "Why are all the ministers here?"

This is a question.

"Zhan'er!" Queen Ruan shouted, Xiao Zhan walked in the garden without any rush, with elegant and calm posture, and stepped forward to salute Queen Ruan, "I wish my son and I will pay my respects to my mother, and I will mourn you."

Queen Ruan nodded and choked with a voice, "You are here just in time. You are discussing the new emperor now. Tell me, is it that you are the legitimate and the eldest?"

As soon as Empress Ruan spoke, she caused Concubine Liu to sneer, and she asked nonsense. Xiao Zhan and King Heng are mortal enemies, Princess Duanmin is Queen Ruan's adopted daughter, and she is about to marry the Ruan family. Is this still necessary to ask?

"Everyone can be appointed as a legitimate, the eldest, and the wise. I wonder what the civil and military officials mean?" Xiao Zhan looked around and asked.

Queen Ruan's eyes suddenly tightened, Li Xian?

Could it be that Xiao Zhan also wants to fight for it?

"Of course, you will be the legitimate son!"

"Let the eldest son!"

There were different opinions, and the two factions soon started a dispute. The ministers who were usually arrogant and elegant, had a red face at this moment, and looked like chewy vendors in the vegetable market.

Xiao Zhan covered his mouth and coughed gently. The hall became quiet for a moment. Xiao Zhan immediately became the focus of everyone. Countless pairs of eyes stared at him, and the scene was shocked by Xiao Zhan.

No one is willing to fight with the legitimate and chief, and in the end he was charged with rebellion, which was infamous for thousands of years.

Concubine Liu had long disliked Xiao Zhan, and her eyes turned cold. She looked at Empress Ruan, "The little prince has not grown up yet. No one knows what kind of virtue he will do in the future. He handed over the vast country of Beijin to the little prince. Who can rest assured? For the sake of the country and the country, the Empress must think twice before acting!"

The little prince is too young, and this is the advantage of Concubine Liu.

Queen Ruan sneered, "This matter naturally follows the emperor's will. If the emperor intentionally passed the throne to King Heng, he would have made an order long ago or enthroned the crown prince. King Heng is almost thirty, and he has no intention of the emperor. It can be seen that he is extremely dissatisfied with King Heng. How can this palace disobey the emperor's last wish?"

As soon as the words were finished, the sound of fighting came from the door, clanging and screaming, and the two sides had arguing.

The smoke of gunpowder spread everywhere, the swords outside the hall were tense, and the smell of blood soared into the sky. There were also news coming from outside the palace, and both sides suffered losses.

Until Xiao Zhan gave the order, the rebellion was quelled within just one hour and the two sides were arrested one by one.

Rows of iron-armored guards rushed into the hall in an orderly manner, each waiting in full force, with a solemn look on his face. King Heng immediately saw something was wrong, "Second Emperor, you dare to invade with your private soldiers. Can you rebel!"

"He just was uneasy and wanted to rebel!" Concubine Liu pointed at Xiao Zhan. Originally, Empress Ruan was difficult enough, but now there was another Xiao Zhan, and the atmosphere became even more tense.

Xiao Zhan walked step by step to the platform, "Don't be so noble. Three days ago, the eldest brother had already brought private soldiers into the city and guarded the palace gate. Aren't the tens of thousands of troops outside the city brought by the eldest brother? What's the difference between the eldest brother and me? My father has no orders and I am also a prince. Why can't I compete with the eldest brother?"

"You are worthy!" King Heng sneered.

Xiao Zhan is neither anxious nor angry.

After a while, the guards entered the hall and reported the news to King Heng. King Heng's face suddenly darkened and he looked at Xiao Zhan incredibly.

"You... you actually brought an army of 200,000!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone was stunned. When did Xiao Zhan have an army of 200,000 in his hand and arrive in Kyoto City quietly?

Concubine Liu was so shocked that her back was cold. It turned out that they were fighting to the death here, so they had already made arrangements outside the palace.

Queen Ruan was also stunned.

"I think the second prince is both literary and talented, brave and good at fighting, and can inherit the throne."

"There is a review by the empress."

In a blink of an eye, several ministers had changed their words and supported Xiao Zhan one after another, but they were still far from establishing the legitimate and eldest sect.

Concubine Liu glanced at Queen Ruan's shocked expression, and smiled at the corner of her lips. She thought the queen was so smart, but in the end she was fooled.

"You want to compete for this position too?" Queen Ruan looked at Xiao Zhan with a cold and cold voice.

"What's wrong?"

Queen Ruan took a deep breath, "But you are not..."

"Mother, be careful, all the civil and military officials are watching." Xiao Zhan raised his jaw and the spy from the Ruan family came forward to report the news. Queen Ruan's face changed and she was furious, "You actually let Wei Baixiao enter the city. Do you know that you are leading a wolf into the house!"

"My mother's words are wrong. Wei Baixiao was here to congratulate her, and she was definitely not intended to offend her. This marriage was given by you by the mother. Wei Baixiao only has such a sister, so she naturally has to come in person."

Queen Ruan seemed to have thought of something and stared at Xiao Zhan in a daze. Concubine Liu was confused and accused coldly, "You colluded with that rebel Wei Baixiao, and it was obvious that you had long coveted the throne. Maybe the death of the late emperor..."

Before Concubine Liu finished speaking, Lin Qi drew his sword toward each other, which scared Concubine Liu backed back, and was angry and angry, "You are so brave, you dare to disobey me, someone is here!"

After shouting several times, there was no movement outside. Concubine Liu's heart sank, and suddenly she had an unknown premonition.

Not only Concubine Liu, but even Empress Ruan noticed it and gave a wink at Aunt Mei beside her. Aunt Mei quietly retreated and came back a moment later. She muttered a few words to Queen Ruan's ear. Queen Ruan took a deep breath and sighed in her secretly that the situation was gone.

The three parties refused to give in and the power was equal. This battle was about to reach an end. If you were not careful, it would affect the entire Beijin.

From the morning to the evening, no news was handed in, no news was handed out. Even civil and military officials could not walk around at will, and could only stay in the hall. They were hungry and tired, and some could not hold on and fainted, and could not even go to Gongfang.

How many civil and military officials cursed in their hearts, but they did not dare to offend others, so they could only hold on.

At midnight, a small number of people couldn't hold it in, so they started to make it convenient in the hall. They were ashamed to find a crack in the ground to get in.

Concubine Liu sat upright, her fingertips trembled, and she gritted her teeth and glanced at Queen Ruan from time to time.

The next morning, Empress Ruan slowly stood up and announced in public, "The second prince is the second son of the late emperor, with both literary and military skills, wisdom and courage, and can inherit the throne."

If I persist like this, no one can stand it. Queen Ruan gave up. As soon as Queen Ruan spoke, the Ruan family faction immediately changed to support Xiao Zhan.

Concubine Liu had a blue face, "Empress, this is probably inappropriate. He succeeded so easily..."

"The concubine, the late emperor passed away suddenly and no decree was left. As long as it is the blood of the late emperor, anyone can inherit it. The little prince is too young to achieve great things. The second prince is upright and has the style of a late emperor in dealing with people and is naturally competent."

Queen Ruan has already compromised. The only thing is that the little prince is too young. If he is older, he will fight for his life even if he sacrifices his life.

"But..." Concubine Liu was dissatisfied and gave the throne to Xiao Zhan for nothing. She couldn't swallow her breath, "Don't say that the throne is not the throne, it's better for us to follow Nanliang as well. Otherwise, it would be of no benefit to anyone if we continue to be so stalemate."

Queen Ruan raised her eyes.

"Divid Bei Jin!" Concubine Liu suggested that this was her final concession and would never compromise anymore. She occupied the fiefdom and became kings. In this case, Concubine Liu would not suffer too much. Otherwise, she would lower her head to Xiao Zhan, and there would be no day to look up.

Concubine Liu took the initiative and would rather hurt the enemy by hurting himself by 800 than let Xiao Zhan have a better life. This proposal made Queen Ruan also moved, but she didn't show any sign of her face. She turned her head and looked at Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan's tall body bent slightly, sat down, glanced at Concubine Liu lightly, with a sarcasm in his eyes, and said, "Bring it up!"

Concubine Liu's eyelids twitched, and suddenly she had an unknown premonition. When she looked up, she saw the guard escorting several people into the hall. King Heng could see something was wrong at a glance. Isn't this his deputy general?

"Your Majesty, it's useless..."

"The last general should die, he cannot defeat the Second Highness's army. Our people were killed, injured and defeated, and almost wiped out the entire army."
