Chapter 318 Succession

"The emperor is destined to be transported by heaven, and the edict says:

I have inherited the order of the emperor and ascended to the throne of the world. It is by the order of the emperor Daxing that I follow the ethical order and enter the ancestral hall. I am worried about dangers and work hard every day, and I am dedicated to the people. Now my strength is weakening, day and night.

Danger and fear, worry and fear will never end, so it is said that

It is located at Si Moli, King of Li. Chinese and foreign civil and military officials are working together to benefit our people. No gold or jade should be used for funeral rituals. Xiaoling Mountains and Rivers will not be changed for this reason. Those who are not in the order are recommended to work under this order. This is hereby announced

The world."

As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar and looked at King Li at the front.

But there was no joy or sadness on his face, nor was there a trace of surprise. No one could tell what he was thinking in his calm eyes.

Some people behind him were disappointed, some were resentful, and some, like the seventh prince, were sincerely happy for Si Moli. In his opinion, no one was more suitable to be emperor than his uncle.

Such a result seems reasonable and seems to exceed everyone's predictions.

No one expected that the emperor would be so cruel as to hand over the world to his younger brother instead of choosing a son.

Si Moli stepped forward calmly and accepted the imperial edict coldly and obediently.

Once the news was publicized, the government and the public were shocked, and naturally some people were dissatisfied.

However, Si Moli's methods were ruthless and decisive, and he quickly suppressed those grievances and made job adjustments to many people.

On the civil servants' side, the Taifu and others first took the lead in expressing their intention to surrender, and then resigned from their posts to retire. Not to mention the military attachés, some of the people who had cooperated with the Sixth Prince before, and another person who tried to manipulate the emperor when he was critically ill were all killed.

Dismissed.

Seeing that a number of official positions were vacant, Si Moli appointed some people to temporarily serve as part-time positions, and then announced who would be ultimately appointed based on their recent performance and self-recommendation.

At this time, many people obeyed and thought about how to get benefits.

The turmoil soon calmed down, and Kyoto seemed to have returned to its former peace.

Shen Qingyun rarely went out as usual. News from the border came that Han Rou's illness had begun to heal, and she felt much more relaxed.

However, she suddenly began to be unable to eat anything. Now her food intake was only half of the usual amount, but she was not hungry at all.

Pearl was quite worried: "Yicui, how can you do this, Miss? If you only eat a little every day, your body will be unable to bear it sooner or later."

Yi Cui frowned and said softly: "Are you worried about the prince, oh no, worried about the emperor's affairs, so I don't have much appetite."

Pearl sighed and said nothing.

"Now that the prince has become the emperor, Pearl, do you think the emperor will marry our lady? Then, will the lady become the queen?" When Yicui said this, there was still a hint of excitement in her voice.

But after a while, Yi Cui understood Pearl's worries. The harem was not easy to treat.

Look at the young lady now. She can sleep until she wakes up naturally every day. Although the family relationship in the Duke's mansion is sparse, she still has Aunt Wang to come and talk to her occasionally. There is nothing to worry about. The shops are also running well. She can say that she has food and clothing in her life.

Don't worry anymore.

If she really became a queen, how could she be as relaxed as she is now?

Yicui couldn't help but sigh, but after thinking about it, she added: "Think about it, after you get married, you won't be as leisurely as the girl's family. Even if you marry into a wealthy family, you still have to manage the back house, and also...

It would be better to marry the emperor, to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people."

Pearl shook her head, she knew very well that the young lady would never want to enter the harem.

A long time ago, she saw that the young lady occasionally read some miscellaneous books about geography and people, and occasionally there was some interest and longing in her eyes.

At that time, she asked: "Miss, when do you think we can see these mountains, rivers, lakes and seas with our own eyes?"

After saying that, he stuck out his tongue in embarrassment, knowing that it was all delusion.

But Shen Qingyun said seriously: "When everything calms down, we should go for a walk. We can't stay trapped in the small square courtyard of the back house."

Pearl was stunned: "But Miss, you will get married in the future, so how can you go out for a walk?"

She could never forget the look on Shen Qingyun's face at that time, smiling, firm, and calmly saying the words that shocked her: "If the marriage is just to trap me, then why bother getting married."

At that time, Pearl's eyes widened and she pouted, telling the lady not to say such things again.

Women have to get married no matter what.

If you cannot get married, you will be looked down upon, discussed, and laughed at by everyone.

But deep down in her heart, she was a little happy for the young lady's bold idea. She couldn't explain why she was happy, but in her heart she hoped that the young lady could always do what she wanted to do like she is now, instead of being like other women. Get married, have children, and work hard to take care of your life.

Now that she thinks of that scene, Pearl feels even more panicked.

What should the young lady and His Highness Prince Li do?

But if the young lady doesn’t marry His Highness Prince Li, who can she marry?

Just when the two maids were thinking about their own things, Aunt Wang suddenly came over.

She knocked on the door and entered the house: "Miss, there are a bunch of people coming outside, saying that they are your aunt."

"Aunt?" Shen Qingyun was slightly stunned, not understanding how such a famous person could appear.

She did know that her father, Shen Zhifeng, had a biological sister, Shen Nan, but the relationship between the two did not seem to be good. After Shen Nan got married, she even lost contact with Shen Guogong's mansion. Even Shen Zhifeng's funeral, this so-called There is no news about my aunt either.

Now he is running over.

Yi Cui frowned and said: "A bunch of people, are they dragging their families to fight against the autumn wind?"

Shen Qingyun thought for a while and then said: "Take me over first to take a look."

Aunt Wang nodded, thinking of that aunt who just learned that she was an aunt, with a look of disgust and arrogance on her face, she couldn't help curling her lips: "Miss, come with me, but I think that Aunt Laozi, Maybe it’s just what Yicui said, and she doesn’t have any good intentions anyway.”

Shen Qingyun said no more and walked to the flower hall in silence.

Pearl and Yi Cui followed her, and their eyes widened when they saw the person.

Good guy, what a bunch of people!

A rough count showed that there were more than ten masters and slaves, and there was a crowd of people standing there.

One of them, who looked to be the oldest, must be her aunt Shen Nan. She was well maintained, wearing a dark green patterned skirt and gold jewelry. Behind her stood two maids and a woman.

Seeing Shen Qingyun coming, her eyes lit up, she stood up and came over to greet him, smiling kindly and gently: "This is Qingyun, look at this, she looks like a fairy."

As she said this, she wanted to take Shen Qingyun's hand, but she gently avoided it.
