Chapter 178: The Old King’S Funeral, The Overlord Ascends
Lansu funeral
The news is always spreading,
All of a sudden, the court shook, and everyone's expressions were complicated.
And Lan Chi, surrounded by several important ministers of his own party, walked in front of the people.
"The last emperor's decree: The eldest daughter Lanxi has been summoned many times and has not returned. She supports the army and respects herself. She has become rebellious and deprived her of the position of princess. The country cannot live without a king. The second prince, Lan Chi, is smart, intelligent, benevolent and loving for the people.
An attendant holds a brocade book in his hand and reads it aloud in front of everyone,
There was an eerie silence at the scene.
Everything is foreshadowed,
Lan Su is not in good health, and has not been to court for more than a month.
The serious illness can't be cured for a long time, and it goes from bad to worse.
Probably the body is dying, and no one knows that it will collapse on that day.
A country cannot be without a king for a day,
The successor must be ready at any time to inherit the great rule.
But... Lan Xi couldn't call her back for a long time.
In this world, the last emperor died in the sky, so who should sit on the big throne and be the same as the heroes?
The answer is self-evident,
Now in the entire capital, no one is more suitable than Lan Chi.
but.....
The people present did not expect that Lan Chi would act so decisively as "six two three", and did not even leave a retreat.
It's not about temporarily sitting in a high position to stabilize the situation and waiting for Lan Xi to return.
Instead, he completely took the seat and directly ordered the imperial edict to declare himself as the official.
He even put a hat on Lanxi who was far to the west.
Is the edict really His Majesty's?
No one present would believe that such an outrageous "legacy" was written by Lan Su.
It's outrageous!
The Great Empress was originally the Crown Princess, and as long as she came back from the west, she would be the heir to the throne.
Why do you want to support yourself, why do you want to rebel?
This hat is really too far-fetched.
Even, many people think that
The reason why Lan Su suddenly fell ill and could not be cured for a long time......
This is all from Lan Chi's method.
He had to seize this opportunity of Lanxi's westward trip.
Once Lan Xi returns from the westward journey and secures his seat, he will have no chance.
After all, it was a coincidence that these things happened during this ambiguous period of time!
Only Lanchi got the most benefits.
But some things seem to be true, but in fact they are false.
Some things may seem outrageous, but they are true.
Few people have a clear mind and can guess what the emperor is thinking.
This posthumous edict was actually written by Lan Su.
but………
True, false...it doesn't really matter.
Importantly, what to do next?
Originally, when Lan Xi left, she took away many ministers who supported her.
Lan Xi is not here, now the highest status successor in Kyoto is Lan Chi,
During the time when Lan Xi left, Lan Chi was not idle, and his political status was constantly rising.
In the court hall, except for some people who did not stand in line, many people were on Lan Chi's side.
What's more... The Tian family is standing behind Lan Chi, Lan Chi still has force and controls the military power in Kyoto.
How can I oppose him? Don't want to live anymore?
Lan Chi stood in front of the people, his sharp eyes swept across the officials, and the dragon's power swept across, majestic.
He is already ready to become a king.
"This edict is the edict of the late emperor. I follow the will of the late emperor and inherit the great order. Do you have any objections?"
The waiter beside him respectfully took out a large cloak and put it on his back, showing his domineering dignity.
for a moment,
His identity means that he has completed a process of transformation from prince to king.
The mighty king spread out violently, causing everyone present to be shocked, and everyone lowered their eyes slightly, not daring to exchange eyes with him.
The second prince is domineering, vicious, and moody.
It's better than Wu's
"I have objections!"
However at this moment,
But someone stood up and raised objections.
"oh?"
Lan Chi raised his eyebrows, and looked at the person who showed his face lightly.
His face was expressionless, showing no signs of appeasement.
"So it's Mr. Zheng Zhonghui, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry?"
"What objection do you have?"
He is in need of a chicken to warn monkeys!
He jumped out.
"Your Highness, I think this fact is strange!"
"What do you call me?!"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty"
"The funeral of the former emperor is too strange, and the imperial edict left behind may have been revised by others..."
Zheng Zhonghui was a fat man with a big belly, and he looked quite wealthy.
He took the look of an old man,
Twitching the corners of his mouth, he still bowed to Lan Chi, and said in a loud voice: "I implore the Inspectorate to investigate thoroughly, and let His Highness take charge of the position first, and then make a decision after the eldest princess comes back."
"Strange? Weird?"
What the father said is right, the people in the Ministry of Industry are indeed a bunch of drunkards.
Lan Chi looked at him disdainfully, and said in a cold voice, "What do you mean?"
"Are you saying that if I murdered the late emperor, am I going to change the edict?"
His eyes gradually became dangerous, looking down at the officials present.
It is very straightforward to speak clearly.
Although he was destined to bear this stain, but these things...he really didn't do it.
Therefore, the tone should be very strong.
Isn't it?
The ministers secretly slandered.
However, facing the eyes of the domineering new king, they all looked at their noses, noses, noses, and hearts without saying a word.
"Chen... I don't mean that!"
How dangerous is Lan Chi?
To meet his fierce eyes, the aura exuded unscrupulously.
Zheng Zhonghui, who was in his early years, trembled suddenly, and beads of sweat began to run across his side face.
Trembling, he couldn't help shaking his head and denying.
"snort!"
Lan Chi snorted coldly, and his voice became deeper and more indifferent: "Then what do you mean?"
"Why? Do you want to question the edict of the late emperor?"
"Then I, the emperor of Qianyuan and Yuan Dynasties, do you have to question it?"
"Minister....Minister...."
Zheng Zhonghui was stuttering, his hands trembling slightly.
The new king is not a fledgling incompetent, a weak king who can be easily handled.
He is domineering and willful, and he is unparalleled in power and influence.
Lan Chi raised his eyebrows, although he was scolding Zheng Zhonghui in a cold voice,
His eyes turned to an old man among the most important ministers at the front: "You still want the Procuratorate to investigate thoroughly?"
The words seem to have something to say: "Why? When can the Inspectorate be above the emperor?"
There are many faction teams above the court, forming a net...
Indeed, there are many constraints on the king.
Lan Chi is not Lan Su,
He is young, he is brave, he is a wolf.
As the censor of the Inspectorate, the old man hurriedly bowed and said: "The Inspectorate supervises all officials, clarifies the administration of officials, and belongs to His Majesty's management, and it is impossible to override His Majesty.
"Is it?"
Lan Chi chuckled, and turned to look at Zheng Zhonghui, who was nervous: "I heard that a few days ago, an envoy from the Northern Zhou Dynasty visited Mr. Zheng's house unannounced, and brought a lot of gold, silver and jewels, but when he came out, he was empty-handed~"
"this.....…"
Zheng Zhonghui trembled suddenly: "Your Majesty...this is really a rumor! Rumor! I have never seen any envoy from the Northern Zhou Dynasty!"
"I also heard that more than half of the public funds for the construction of the city wall have been diverted. Can Mr. Zheng tell me... Where did all the money go?"
"This this………………
"No, nothing!"
"Your Majesty, I am wronged...
Facing Lan Chi's sneering face,
Zheng Zhonghui's complexion was pale, his mind was blank, his speech was trembling, and he couldn't finish a sentence.
"snort!"
"Bold!"
"Zheng Zhonghui, what are you still arguing about? Collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country, corruption and embezzlement! What you have done is enough to kill you 10,000 times! Do you need my evidence to be slapped on your face?"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... I dare not!"
"The minister is wrong!"
"I know I was wrong!"
Zheng Zhonghui knelt on the ground immediately, crying and howling.
"Drag it down, cut it off!"
"Zhu Jiu Clan, family!"
Lan Chi waved his hand indifferently and said lightly.
The guards broke into the door and dragged Zheng Zhonghui, who was like a dead pig, out.
Zheng Zhonghui's screams gradually faded away, gradually fading away.
For a moment, the entire court was eerily quiet,
All the officials were silent, but Zheng Zhonghui's screams were still in his ears.
There is no reason for 1.7 to feel chilly on the neck.
When the new king came to power, he simply and neatly wiped out the whole family of a high-ranking official,
He showed everyone his means and character, and proved his fineness.
"How come... such a simple matter, the Inspectorate can't find out?"
Finally, he glanced at the old man.
By the way, he also hit the other party.
The old man bowed flatly and said: "Your Majesty, I am a humble minister!"
Lan Chi said coldly: "You're old, you can't do anything, and you can't do things well, so let's give up your seat, don't always occupy the latrine and don't shit."
After all,
Lan Chi didn't look at him either,
Instead, step by step, he walked up to the throne representing the supreme under heaven, and sat down on it.
He propped his chin and looked down at the officials: "Now, who has any objections?"
"Sir, I have no objection!"
"Sir, no objection!"
"My lord, greet Your Majesty!" xn
All of a sudden, all the officials bowed their heads.
"Five days later, the enthronement ceremony will be held, and I will announce it to the world!"
a brand new king,
A domineering and willful hero in troubled times finally took his seat.
The chaotic world will also open a prelude. .
