Chapter 758: Fulfilling the destiny
Imperial Palace·A remote palace
This place is next to the cold palace, but the weeds in the gaps between the blue bricks have been cleaned up, but the sound of snow outside stops, the winter wind blows over the hall, the cold air is shrouded and silent, but it is not empty. Several figures are standing in the corner of the hall, guarding the thing in the middle.
It was placed here as an exquisite magic weapon that was emitting fluorescence in the darkness. This object was the Jiulongyi, and this vision had long been reported to the emperor.
The emperor had arrived from the bedroom at this moment, without making any big fuss or even having someone prepare a chariot. He walked along the corridor, only eunuch Meng Lin followed.
Although Meng Lin did not show off in front of others like Eunuch Zhao and others, at such critical moments, the emperor obviously trusted him more.
The emperor only took Meng Lin, one lord and one servant, moving forward in the darkness.
Even if the palace lanterns are not carried, the palace is not purely black at night. A slightly swaying palace lantern is hanging on the wall or under the eaves for a distance.
"The earthquake in the southwest province has caused more than 10,000 casualties and tens of thousands of injured." The emperor did not think directly about the grandson, but thought of a memorial just now.
"Oh!" Thinking about it carefully, there was nothing that was going well recently. The emperor was a little upset and looked at it. Although the snow was not big, the eaves and wings of each palace were thinly coated with silver on the ground. A palace lantern was bright not far away. The emperor pointed at him and asked, "Who is there?"
Meng Lin replied: "It's Xiao's bedroom. I reported a few days ago that Princess Yongjia was slightly ill and hired a female doctor to diagnose it. She may be busy now."
The emperor did not speak, and his expression was difficult to distinguish between joy and anger, but the obscure and difficult aura on his body easily made people realize that the emperor at this moment was not pure joy.
Until the palace entered its sight, the emperor speeded up.
The old eunuch, who had been lagging behind, raised his eyelids and looked around and found that it was full of familiar breath and there were no traces of outsiders. Then he felt relieved and walked up the steps step by step, and the sound of striking people attracted the attention of hidden people in the hall.
However, when they found out that the people who came in were the Emperor and Meng Lin, they knelt down silently.
The emperor ignored it. As the emperor entered, a small lamp appeared in Meng Lin's hand at some point. He held the small lamp to guide the emperor.
When the Jiulongyi appeared in front of the emperor, the light emitted by the dragon ball also made the emperor's calm breath instantly disordered.
The soft light of the dragon ball was slightly yellow, and a circle of light was not vaguely bright, illuminating the palace. The emperor just stared blankly and looked closer and found that one-third of the beads were lit up. The beads that looked similar to glass were already a little full of brilliance.
"Is it only one third?" The emperor asked with a frown at first, then turned around and asked Meng Lin: "You said, why is this?"
"How dare I say too much about this kind of thing?" Meng Linben stepped back and waited and answered.
"I forgive you for being innocent, tell me."
"Since ancient times, the difference between the king and his subjects is that even if the emperor officially passes the cabinet, enthrone the grandson, and declares the world to form a decree, it will not be a matter of time."
"What's more, it's only half an hour."
"But I have given the crown prince seal." The emperor seemed to be a little confused.
"Emperor, the previous dynasty has more than twenty private seals. In the past, when the destiny was there, the nine provinces were vast under one seal. No one dared not to follow it. Although it is still somewhat effective now, it is less than one percent."
"The seal of the crown prince must not be recognized by the court, that is, a good jade. If you can shine so much now, it means that you have already received the destiny of heaven."
There was no one in the darkness, and Meng Lin's answer seemed different from usual, and the emperor didn't care and thought about it.
"Oh, indeed... Is it necessary to officially be named the grandson?" The emperor was happy and worried. What was happy was that through the Jiulongyi, he realized that even if the father, son, grandson and grandson had a huge gap, even if he gave the crown prince seal, it would be difficult to catch up.
What is worried is that the emperor is reluctant to formally confirm through the cabinet for no reason, but now it seems that he has to.
"But, destiny..."
On the other hand, only letting the King of Dai receive rewards before did not allow the Jiuyi to change at all. Now, if the order is issued, it is still privately to receive this change. Isn’t this saying that the King of Dai is a real dragon, which is in accordance with the destiny of heaven?
Suddenly, the emperor felt a little regretful and panic. The prince was a real dragon, and the grandson was too. Didn’t he cut off the two dragon veins of Dazheng?
But this regret and panic disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Although Taizu drew a three-foot sword, swept the world and stood in great power, there were many hidden dangers and unstable everywhere. It was because I cut off my evil deeds, cleared the hidden dangers, rectified the administration of the officials, and slapped the generals."
"The great Zheng Longyun is in me, and it is the best choice. If I follow my fate, I will die in more than two years. The prince is too weak and afraid that it will be difficult to control it, and he will become a sinner in the country."
"The King of Dai is good at the folk, and can be the top scholar. Needless to say, he is too sinister and cunning. Although there is no evidence, there must be something strange about the King of Qi and the Prince of Ninghe County. This cannot escape my insight."
"Therefore, the king of Destiny is not suitable for being the king. I am not wrong. Only I can take on this burden."
Thinking of this, the emperor's regret and panic were swept away, and there was not even much anger or fear, but a joy.
After all, only dragons can replace dragons, and this change is your hope!
Gently brushed the Jiulongyi with his hands, and the emperor's eyes, which were looking at the light, were reflected in the light, revealing a bit of heat.
Even though there is still a distance, at least it is not as clueless as in the past.
Queen
Although it was not very late, the entire palace was dim and almost all the lights were turned off. Only a little eunuch hurried over with him, and someone woke up.
"Why are you here so late? The palace gate has already set up the key?"
Not only the inner palace and the imperial city gates, but even the halls were actually closed, but the knocking sounds of secret codes outside still asked the eunuchs guarding the door to open the door, and saw a familiar face and were slightly surprised.
"What's wrong?" the eunuch asked.
The little eunuch who came over whispered: "What a big deal happened, the emperor is determined to confer the title of King Dai as the grandson. I want to see the queen immediately!"
"What?!" The news was so amazing that the eunuch at the gate was so shocked that he trembled. He woke up in an instant and said immediately: "Come in first, I'll report to the Empress!"
Then he hurried to the queen's bedroom.
The one on duty outside the bedroom today is a big palace maid, named Jade. She and two little palace maids are talking in a low voice on the soft couch outside.
When I heard footsteps coming, my face changed.
The Empress had just fallen asleep, and someone suddenly came in urgently. Could it be that something was wrong?
Those who can serve in the Queen’s Palace for a long time cannot be unaware of the rules!
Sure enough, the eunuch who came in whispered to her: "What a big deal happened, the emperor is determined to be the grandson, tell the empress quickly!"
For such a big event, let alone the Queen fell asleep, even if she fell asleep in the middle of the night, she could only scream immediately.
Otherwise, this is the dereliction of duty of these people!
Jade's face also changed slightly, but this change was not horror, but surprise!
Grandson?
If the King of Shu is appointed as the crown prince, he is only the crown prince. The only person who can be called the crown prince is the only one who can be called the crown prince!
This matter is true, it is a great joy. Jade immediately thought of the gods and man respecting the dragon and throwing his arms. He secretly felt that he understood it, and this must be a good fortune.
Humph, Chaoxia was still worried when she heard this. What she said might not be a blessing. It seems that she is really not as good as herself. The first female official in front of the empress is the only one I am.
"I'll call the queen now!" As he said that, Jade, who was excited, turned around and entered the bedroom.
