027 Fight for the throne

The eunuchs and bodyguards are ready to leave.

Who knew that the pilgrim king's face was not afraid at all, but his face was full of fright. He said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't be so naive. If you don't let go, can you get out of here? My people now surround this palace densely, not to mention people, even a fly can't go out. If you want to go out, you must get my consent. I advise you to cooperate with me obediently.

After saying this, he laughed.

His smile looked abnormally shrinking.

Prince Shang Yin couldn't help walking to him, pointed to him, and said to him, "Why don't you let your father go to the funeral?"

"It's up to you, Prince Shang Yin. Don't think that you are the prince. He will really be the emperor in the future. The reason why I refuse to let the emperor's coffin go to funeral is that I don't want the throne to hang in the air. If the emperor's coffin is carried away, then this proves that there is no emperor in the world. It is unreasonable for a country to have no emperor, and it is understandable for me to do so. If you want to carry the emperor's coffin away, you must first choose the new emperor.

The queen looked at the pilgrim king coldly, but there was nothing in her eyes.

Because after all, under the circumstances at this time, the person holding the military power is the pilgrim king, and the second most military power is the Evergreen King, and what she has nothing in her hand is her own son, Prince Shangyin.

At this time, the courtiers also talked about it.

A more loyal courtier took a step forward, knelt down and said to the queen, "Please send the former emperor to the former emperor's mausoleum first. The queen's words can best represent the will of the former emperor. Although the former emperor died suddenly and did not leave an edict, there is no need to think about it. Naturally, this throne is Shang Yin. Prince, otherwise why did the former emperor make Prince Shang Yin the crown prince?

"Joke, can you be the emperor if you become a prince? You don't even think about how many people in Yunhuang Kingdom have been appointed as princes for so many years. It doesn't mean that they can't be emperors. Even if they die young, there are many people.

After saying this, he looked at Prince Shangyin coldly and said to Prince Shangyin, "As for whether our crown prince is a short-lived emperor or not, it depends on whether he knows what he is interested in!"

"I don't know what's interesting?" The queen suddenly became a little angry. She looked at him and said to him, "I understand what you mean. Pilgrim King, what you said is nothing more than hoping that you can be the emperor yourself. Am I right?"

"Sister-in-law, don't say it so directly. Yes, although your words are direct, it is also reasonable. If you want to talk about the candidate of the new emperor, whether in terms of qualifications, ability, or military power in your hand, who can compare with my pilgrimage king? If my pilgrim king dares to be the second, absolutely no one dares to be the first. If I become an emperor, it's understandable, don't you think so?

Those courtiers and guards who had colluded with him for a long time shouted loudly after hearing his question, "Naturally, the pilgrim king is the most suitable emperor. Long live the pilgrim king."

After seeing this situation, Huangfu Shangyin couldn't help but be angry.

Huangfu Shangyin had just walked forward and was pulled by the queen.

The queen shook her head at him.

Huangfu Shangyin clenched his fist tightly and looked at him as if he wanted to fight with others.

The queen pulled him back hard, signaling him not to act rashly.

After hiding for a long time, Huangfu Shang finally listened to the queen's words and did not act rashly.

When Huangfu Shangyin came back, the queen said, "Today, I suddenly feel uncomfortable. If the emperor doesn't go to the funeral today, that's all. The emperor's body should stop here first. The mourning family will go back to rest first. There is also the Pilgrimage King. I want to remind you that if you are not accompanied by me, the emperor can't go to the funeral, and you can't make your own decision. I hope you can be clear about this.

"Sister-in-law, you don't say that I seem to be unconscious. Of course I know it very well. Naturally, without your company and approval, the emperor naturally can't go to the funeral. So I'll wait for you to change your mind.

As he spoke, he smiled. He was obviously sure that the queen was powerless at this time and could only admit that he was at his mercy.

After sighing, the queen took Huangfu Shangyin and walked in.

After Huangfu Shangyin walked in, he couldn't help showing a irritable look on his face.

He suddenly broke away from the queen's hand and said to her, "Mother, why didn't you let me hit him just now? Look at the face of the pilgrim king, it's really disgusting and disgusting."

"Silly boy, you can beat him in this situation. If you hit him, he will have more reason to say that you are impulsive and irritable, and it is not the emperor's material at all. Moreover, if I don't observe anything wrong, I can see clearly that even the Evergreen King may not be on your side at this time. In a word, the situation is dangerous now, and we still have to take a long-term perspective. Since your father's birthday coffin can't be funeral, that's all. It's the so-called delaying the army. Since the pilgrim king is determined to spend time with me, I will spend a few days with him. In the past few days, I have to wait for the civil ministers to discuss it to see if there is any other way.

It is not clear that Huangfu Shang hid in the court. Now, it seems to be a matter of the queen saying this.

However, he knew that the queen's plan was for his own sake, so he didn't say anything, but nodded hard and said, "My son, but it's up to my mother."

"If you say so, then I will be relieved. Don't worry, the emperor's seat will definitely not fall into the hands of others. Even if I fight for this life, I will protect you to ascend the throne.

The mother and son looked at each other deeply. In this huge palace room, a helpless breath spread silently in their minds.

Although they didn't say anything, they all felt helpless, because sometimes the situation was strong, and Huangfu Shangyin also felt helpless for the first time.

He finally understood why the emperor and the queen abandoned him at the beginning. It turned out that many times, they were also helpless. Many times, although they were royal nobles, they could not make the decision many times.

This matter quickly spread to every corner of the palace. Naturally, Princess Qinglu also knew it.

A few days ago, Princess Yunyi came to chat with Princess Qinglu from time to time, and the two sisters talked about their feelings.

However, after this incident, Princess Yunyi did not come.

It's reasonable for her not to come. After all, now the husbands of the two people are going to compete for the position of emperor. They should avoid suspicions, but for Murong Qingluo, she thinks it's too ridiculous, because she has never thought of helping Huangfu Shangyin, and he has never thought of letting Prince Shangyin ascend to the throne.

However, some things can't be done by her.

On this day, she was talking to Hongqi, who was talking to her about the outside situation.

Hongqi said, "Now the emperor's longevity coffin has been stopped in the hall for three days. I heard that there is a bad smell in the longevity coffin. However, the pilgrim king refused to let the emperor go to the funeral anyway. He was forcing the queen to nod. However, the queen was determined to accept the throne of Prince Shangyin, so how could she agree at this time, so the people and horses on both sides confronted each other like this.

After hearing her say this, Murong Qinglu frowned slightly, turned his face, and asked with a smile, "So I want to know what is the attitude of Evergreen King? I'm afraid this evergreen king also has the heart to compete for the throne. After all, even Yunyi refuses to come to see us now.

"I'm afraid so. The Evergreen King behaved very low-key and did not show any intention of wanting to compete for the throne, but he did not help anyone."

"Didn't he help Prince Shang Yin?"

"No." Hong Suan nodded and said.

Murong Qingqi said, "Now the chaos in the wilderness country is really interesting."

After saying this, she couldn't help looking at the red silk and asked, "Do you think this is it?"

"It has nothing to do with me whether it is or not. You are the only one in my heart, Princess Qinglu. What does the princess think? That's what it is."

Princess Qinglang listened to her words, flicked her forehead gently, and said with a smile, "You girl, how dare you come to tell me these shameless words."

While they were talking, a little maid of honor suddenly came in and said to Murong Qinglu, "Prince Concubine, Duke Wei wants to see you."

"Eun Gong-in-law Wei?" Murong Qinglu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Who is Eunuch Wei?"

The little maid of honor said, "Empress Wei is the deputy palace in charge of the Shang Palace Bureau in this harem."

"Hasn't Shang Gong always been held by women? How can there be a eunuch?" Murong Qinglu couldn't help asking with great interest.

"Yes, it has always been handled by women, but the Duke of Wei was appointed by the Empress Dowager and appointed him as the deputy palace. This matter has always been rumored in the harem."

"What kind of person is this Grandpa Wei?" Murong Qinglu couldn't help but be full of interest in him.

"Eunuch Wei is skillful and delicate, and he is smarter than an ordinary girl! In a word, Euke Wei is a wonderful person in the world. The little maid couldn't help praising.

After listening to the little maid's words, Murong Qinglu suddenly became interested.

She turned her face, looked at Hongqi, and said with a smile, "Hongqi, why do you think Duke Wei came to me today?"

"I don't know either." Hongqi shook his head.

"Well, no matter what, such a wonderful person will naturally meet." Murong Qinglu waved to the little maid, "Go and invite Eun Gong Wei in!"
