Tai Chi Palace, White Tiger Palace.

The place where the Tang emperor laid his coffin was filled with mourning.

Xu Maogong, Qin Shubao, Hu Jingde...

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Zhang Daoyuan...

Both civil and military teams were present.

Prince Li Chengqian of the East Palace.

The Queen’s eldest grandson.

Harem concubines.

The chief servants in the palace are all here.

Empress Changsun called the prince to inherit the throne, several princes, and important civil and military ministers discussed the matter in the side hall.

Queen Changsun said, "I want to pass on the mourning edict and tell the world that the prince will inherit Qian and ascend the throne."

Guan Longxungui, an important civil servant, agreed silently.

Empress Changsun is about to recruit someone from Shushe to draft the manuscript.

The fourteenth prince Li Ming suddenly shouted loudly, "Mother! Queen! Father, he is not dead yet! Thirteenth brother said that father will not die!"

Queen Changsun glared, "King Cao, shut up!"

Li Min, King of Liang, followed, "Don't mention Li Fu again. If he hadn't stabbed my father with a silver needle, I'm afraid the imperial doctor could still use it, and my father wouldn't have to sleep forever."

"My father is not dead! My father is not dead!"

Li Ming covered his head with both hands and said, "Brother Thirteen told me! He said that as long as I burn the paper properly, both my father and he will wake up!"

"My mother said she was playing with fire and peeing on the kang, but she never let me play with fire. I... am not afraid of peeing on the kang anymore. Why..."

"Why do you all say that my father and Brother Thirteen are dead..."

Queen Changsun was upset when she heard this, "It is said that the imperial physician came into the palace to diagnose King Cao. King Cao was very sad and asked the imperial physician to use some soothing medicine to give him a good rest."

Below, Xu Jingzongdao also said at the right time, "The ancients said, 'Throwing water is difficult to collect, and people will never come back.' Your Highness, King Cao, expresses my condolences."

"The ancients also said, 'The sky cannot be without sun for a day, and the country cannot be without a king.' Please ask Her Majesty the Queen to draw up a decree for the new king."

At this moment.

Suddenly, a female guard entered the side hall and whispered to Queen Changsun.

Queen Changsun's expression changed several times and she moved to the main hall.

I just heard the voice of the Tang Emperor coming from the coffin in the middle of the White Tiger Palace.

"Let me out!"

The concubines and maids in the White Tiger Palace were trembling with fear, their faces as cold as frost.

The crown prince Li Chengqian felt his feet weak after hearing this, and his hand holding a mourning stick was not like a human king.

The guard's soul flew away, and his face was as blank as a foolish person.

A concubine is knocked down like a hibiscus torn apart by a strong wind.

All the officials were frightened and trembled like quails.

Although it is noon in pure sunshine at this moment.

The White Tiger Palace is like a bridge broken by a sudden rain in the middle of the night.

Retreat, retreat, retreat.

No one around the coffin dared to approach.

It was Xu Maogong who suddenly became brave, strode forward, held the rosewood board in his hand and said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, if you are worried about anything, tell me in detail, don't make a fool of yourself and scare the family members."

Li Ming ran forward, hugged the coffin, and cried with joy, "I just said that my father will not die! My father is not dead!"

Cheng Zhijie said, "Don't bother with so much. Bring me some equipment and let me see if it's your Majesty."

Pry open the nails and push open the coffin lid.

I saw Emperor Tang sitting inside, with a ruddy complexion, not looking like a dead person.

Cheng Zhijie said heartlessly, "I'll just say everything is fine, Lord!"

Xu Maogong, Qin Shubao and others seemed to be encouraging collectively and said, "Don't be afraid that your Majesty will wake up. All the ministers are here to protect you."

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty asked, "What are you protecting?"

All the nobles looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

Emperor Tang stood up with his hands on both sides of the coffin. Only then did he see the arrangements in the White Tiger Hall and realized that this was his funeral.

Li Shimin laughed heartily, "The layout is good, just as I expected."

Queen Changsun was very happy to see the person beside her pillow come back to life.

She ordered the imperial physician beside Li Ming to immediately diagnose her enemy's health.

When the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty swallowed the porridge in his spoon, he realized that three days and nights had passed.

He asked, "Where is Fu'er?"

The old slave Wang De's tears were still wet when he reported, "Everyone, the body of His Royal Highness King Zhao is at Zongren Temple."

Li Shimin said, "Go and rescue Fuer quickly. He is not dead either."

Li Shimin waved and asked Li Ming, "Fu'er told me that he had entrusted you with the matter of burning paper before. Did you do it seriously?"

"Yes!" Li Ming nodded.

He pulled at his clothes and said, "I still smell of burning paper!"

"Reward!" The Emperor of Tang Dynasty was happy and immediately ordered the people in Zhongshushe to prepare a decree.

Emperor Tang walked out of the White Tiger Palace. He looked at the clear blue sky and the huge scorching sun and let out a long sigh of relief.

He said, "Originals, please go away. I just want to spend time with my family in the palace today."

Cheng Zhijie said, "I will protect your Majesty's safety."

Li Shimin laughed loudly, "I'm safe. You've been exhausted these days, so go back and rest."

"I obey the order."

Honorable ministers resigned one by one.

Li Shimin asked Queen Changsun, "What happened these days?"

Empress Changsun held Li Shimin's hand and felt the heat coming from her skin.

She said, "The past few days have been peaceful both inside and outside. But today I plan to issue an edict to declare Qian's accession to the throne."

Tang Huang said, "This is also very good."

He looked at the prince and said, "Chengqian, come and sit down."

Li Chengqian still looks soft.

At this time, the eunuch Wang De reported that His Royal Highness King Zhao had been brought there.

Li Shimin said happily, "Fu'er, come and sit down quickly."

Li Fugang sat down.

Li Shimin said, "If the throne is really passed down, I would like to pass it on to Fu'er."

"???"

"!!!"

Everyone in the house was shocked.

Whether it was Empress Changsun, Prince Li Chengqian of the East Palace, even the concubines, and Li Fu himself, they were all greatly shocked.

Tang Huang said, "I am sincere. This time Fu'er is in the Netherworld, which has helped me a lot. I feel that there is no title and no reward. It is not bad to let him be the emperor!"

"Father, please don't do this." Li Fu refused repeatedly.

Are you kidding me? There is no country in the world of Journey to the West that is easy to be the leader of. Li Fu doesn’t want to be.

Li Fu said seriously, "Father, everything is not over yet, it has only just begun."

"Whether it's Wei Zheng slaying the dragon or my father entering the underworld, they are all played before the sutra is passed on."

"Father, please don't get too happy too early and drink during the half-time."

Emperor Tang said, "Well, Fu'er, what reward should I give you as a father?"

Li Fu didn't even think about it this time. He said directly, "Please ask your father to reward your son and become a monk!"

"???"

"!!!"
