The first Hades

Chapter 82 The Prince Controversy, A Trip to the East China Sea 1
Fan Shi'an said: "No. Our people came in after the Queen Mother's people left. The one who killed them was a death row prisoner in the prison, an old woman who was arrested yesterday. This old woman is not only strong in martial arts, but also killed eight After killing the killer, she even took Gu Qingluan away."

Poisonous flames burst out from the Empress Empress's eyes and said: "That girl really deserved her life! She is really the reincarnation of a vixen with nine lives, and has escaped catastrophe time and time again."

Fan Shi'an said: "The servant has already let people release the news that Gu Qingluan was murdered and escaped from prison, but this matter will also be investigated by the Ministry of Punishment."

At this time, an old nanny of the queen came in and whispered a few words in the empress's ear, which made the queen stand up suddenly with a "wheeze", then fell down on the chair and said, "Is this really true?" Also drunk!She just ran away from a person she had to kill, why did she run away halfway?
The old mother said: "It's absolutely true! At this moment, because the right minister's Gu girl escaped from prison, they all rushed out. This matter cannot be delayed. The emperor may announce the establishment of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace in the Jinluan Hall today. This is too sudden. Empress must quickly find a way to stop it, otherwise it will be a foregone conclusion."

"Let's go!" The queen got up, hurried out, and said, "We must release the news as soon as possible, just say that Gu Qianjin is the incarnation of the nine-tailed fox, who killed all the jailers in the prison and escaped."

"You don't need your mother to order this matter, the servant has already done it. However, the servant never expected that Dongfang Ze is actually the emperor's dragon species! This incident was too unexpected, and we were caught off guard."

"Hmph! Even if he sits on the crown prince, this Palace will make him unstable. The future heir is none other than this Palace's husband. He is a bastard, but he dares to join in the fun! What this Palace will let him know There is a way to heaven and he doesn’t go, but there is no way to hell and he just breaks in.”

After they went out, the palace was already full of excitement.Everyone is rumored that Gu Qingluan escaped from prison.However, the Imperial Forest Army was dispatched in the palace, and all the guards in the palace did not even find a trace of Gu Qingluan.

On the magnificent, majestic and solemn Golden Luan Hall, today even the Empress Dowager, who has not been to the Golden Luan Hall for many years, sat on it, making the atmosphere of the entire Golden Luan Hall even more special than before.

Dongfangze, the current Long Xuanze was ordered by the Queen Mother to follow them to court today.However, the incident of Gu Qingluan's escape from prison made him uneasy all the time. Although he was in court at this moment, his heart had already flown away.

Although some people said that no one could catch Gu Qingluan when he saw Gu Qingluan flying away on a blue bird and phoenix, he felt uneasy, but he didn't know where to start after him, so he ordered the guards in the palace and his Tianying teacher People are looking for it until they find her.

He went to the prison to check and found that the martial arts of the dead were so high that he was speechless.It seems that he is still too careless!Someone went to the prison to put the girl to death.

Fortunately, that girl was lucky enough to escape a catastrophe of life and death.It's just that I don't know who the person who rescued her is, and there are absolutely not many people in this world who can wrap a piece of hay around a person's neck and strangle a person.

Even if it is him, he still doesn't have the environment where he can fly flowers and pick leaves, and kill people from afar.

While bowing his head and thinking, the emperor and the queen mother were already sitting on the dragon chairs to accept the worship of all the officials, and he also knelt down with everyone.

"Long live my emperor! Long live the queen mother!"

After all the officials paid homage, before the emperor could speak, the prime minister, Gu Shiyuan, bowed out to plead guilty, knelt in the middle with his knees upright, and prostrated himself on the ground, saying: "Your majesty, I beseech the emperor to forgive her! "

The difference between today's court and the past is that the Empress Dowager Helian Nala, who had not been to the Golden Luan Palace for many years, was also sitting behind the emperor, which made the civil and military officials quite surprised, wondering what important things were going to happen.

The emperor swung his sleeves and said slowly: "Your Prime Minister, there is no need to rush to blame yourself, first listen to the investigation of the Ministry of Punishment."

"Yes! My minister is in a panic!" Prime Minister Right went to beg the emperor and the queen mother, but both the emperor and the queen mother were unpredictable, so he only asked him to feel at ease and feel ashamed.

Zhou Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment immediately bent down and walked out, knelt in the middle and said: "Report to the emperor, report to the queen mother, after preliminary investigation by the Ministry of punishment, it was eight well-trained martial arts killers who killed all the jailers. And killing eight well-trained The one was a death row prisoner who was arrested the day before yesterday. This death row prisoner is a grandmother named Bai Shuang. She is very strong in martial arts, and she may have become obsessed with practicing martial arts. She recovered her martial arts in prison, and after killing eight killers, she took away the right minister's daughter, Gu Qingluan."

As soon as the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment finished speaking, Yan Xiangqing, the Prime Minister of the Left, did not stand up, but questioned him: "Secretary Zhou, how do you know that those eight killers were killed by an old woman, not by the Prime Minister of the Right, Gu Qingluan? According to the truth, those eight killers died instantly when a piece of hay strangled their necks. May I ask, how can any mortal in the world have such a powerful ability? It must be the work of demons."

Zhou Shilang replied: "Because the right minister's daughter, Gu Qingluan, doesn't know martial arts, the official judged that she couldn't kill eight killers with high martial arts skills. According to the description of the arrest of the old lady, it is very likely that the old lady It was 30 years ago when he was rampant in the rivers and lakes, and in the martial arts world, the eight words "Jian Jia is green, white dew is frost" are like the murderous demon Sai Baishuang who turns pale when talking about tigers."

The left minister said: "Hmph! Sai Baishuang has also heard about it. I heard that he died 30 years ago. It is said that those killers were killed by a rope-like weapon, which is like being entangled by a fox's tail. She was strangled to death on the neck. Gu Qingluan does not know martial arts on the surface, but if she becomes a vixen, who knows if she will become a murderer without any effort?"

When the right minister heard this, he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared and said, "Left minister, don't spitting blood! Luan'er has no power to restrain a chicken, but she is just a weak woman. The legends of those vixen are simply non-existent and nonsensical. !"

"As the saying goes, there are no waves without wind. Since there are rumors, they may not be groundless. Your daughter has been insane for many years. If she hadn't been possessed by a nine-tailed fox, how could she suddenly recover without medicine?" Zuo Xiangyan and Xiangqing confronted each other.

The empress dowager behind the emperor suddenly said in a threatening manner: "The two nobles, don't argue about this matter. Today, I am sitting in the Golden Luan Hall, because I want to hear the emperor announce something that is related to the fate of our great Zhou and the lives of the common people. It is a great happy event, and I plan to invite all the Qing family to enjoy this event and celebrate together."

"Congratulations to the empress dowager for a thousand years! There is such a happy event, and the empress dowager please announce it quickly!" Many officials were surprised when they heard this, and they repeatedly congratulated.

The Empress Dowager stood up from her seated position, dragged her gorgeous and complicated palace clothes, and walked slowly to the front of the Golden Luan Hall, she folded her arms and signaled Dongfang Ze to come up and said, "Long Xuanze, the grandson of the Ai family, come to Ai's side! Today is the day of the Ai family! Let the civil and military officials and the people of the world rejoice that the Ai family has returned a grandson!"

When everyone heard this, all their eyes turned to Dongfang Ze, the commander of the bodyguards. Only then did they realize that the commander-in-chief of the bodyguards, who usually does not go to court, was also in the Golden Luan Hall today.

As if a pot exploded, everyone immediately whispered.At this time, the queen mother ordered Li Gonggong to read out an imperial edict that the emperor and the queen mother had just drafted together.

The content of the holy attainment is roughly to explain that Dongfang Ze is the identity of the emperor's grandson, and today he especially recognizes his ancestors and returns to his clan.At the same time as recognizing the ancestors, he was conferred the title of His Royal Highness "Wu" King of the Four Princes and Four Princes, and at the same time he was established as His Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace.

As soon as this edict came out, all civil and military officials were in an uproar.

After Zuo Xiangyan and Xiangqing finished listening to the announcement of Li Chu, he immediately put up his clothes and knelt down and said, "Queen Dowager, Your Majesty, and minister, if you have a book, you have to get it together!"

"Sure!" The emperor waved his hands, held his head high, and his eyes were sharp.

The left minister boldly said: "First of all, I congratulate the Empress Dowager He Xi and the emperor for finding the royal dragon species of the Great Zhou! It is really gratifying to save him from being exiled and suffering! However, I thought that the fourth prince, Long Xuanze, had just Being conferred as His Royal Highness King Wu by the imperial court, and being conferred the title of His Royal Highness Crown Prince hastily, seems a little too thoughtless, please think twice, Your Majesty and Empress Dowager."

The emperor said: "Since I and the Empress Dowager have made this decision, they have already thought twice, four times, and five times. How could there be a lack of consideration? Can I and the Empress Dowager not think carefully about the country of the Zhou Dynasty?"

Zuo Xiangxin was shocked, but for the sake of the empress and the third master he had been following, he continued: "My minister is also thinking about the country and society of the Great Zhou, so I sincerely offer an audience. This minister can understand that the queen mother and the emperor have been found for many years. It is common sense for the dragon species outside to cherish and love them and have the heart to make up for them. However, Long Xuanze has been growing up outside the palace, and he is not formally trained by the royal family. His knowledge may not be as good as growing up in the palace. Da, the three princes who have been tutored by the chief Taifu are very knowledgeable. This minister thinks that the canonization of the prince is not too hasty? The appointment of the prince is a big deal, and the queen mother and the emperor should reconsider."

The queen mother shook her sleeves in displeasure and said in a clear voice: "The Ai family believes that the crown prince Long Xuanze has a heroic appearance and a beautiful talent. If he succeeds the heavens and stands up to the top, he will be able to return the emperor to the district. It's a dead end. This is because the Ai family and the emperor have carefully considered and thought over and over again before deciding to carry out the ceremony, obey the public opinion, and choose a day to hold the grand ceremony. I would like to inform the world, the ancestral temple, the country, the officials and the people of the world."

Zuo Xiangye has always been the queen's person, and has been supporting the third prince, Long Xuanfu. Now, suddenly a dragon is airborne, and he was named His Royal Highness by the queen mother. This is too hard for the queen's party to accept.

Therefore, besides Prime Minister Zuo, another old courtier who supported the empress also came out tremblingly, knelt down on the ground, risking the possibility of offending the queen mother and the emperor, and said loudly: "The old courtier has his own intentions." Get it together!"

"Accurate!" The emperor's long face was furious, but it was still accurate.

The old official said tremblingly: "The old official has always heard that there is a legend among the people. The future prince of our Great Zhou must be the incarnation of Huanglong. It is not yet known who is the incarnation of Huanglong among the four princes. It is time to establish the prince as soon as possible. Although it is possible to hide the Mianzong Society of the country, it should not be rash, so as not to be wrongly established. I believe that the Queen Mother and the Emperor should determine who is the incarnation of Huanglong before making him the crown prince."
