Chapter 488 Fame and Power

Ziwei Palace.

King An was dressed in mourning clothes and stood in front of the dragon chair. Although he had not yet sat down, his aura of intimidation was undisguised.

After the emperor's death and the first moment when the imperial edict was issued, the next owner of the throne was determined, but he had not yet officially ascended the throne.

Now, according to common sense, it should be the first time for the new emperor to meet with the governors and military leaders of various states to reach a consensus. Then tomorrow we will send the former emperor to the imperial mausoleum together, and then you will be your emperor and I will be my governor.

All have a bright future.

The premise is that there are no accidents.

"Qu Wuya, the governor of Youzhou, Fang Mingjing, the governor of Yunzhou, Yun Jiuchong, the governor of Qingzhou, Zhuge Wuji, the governor of Shuzhou," King An glanced at the four people standing on the left, "The eight governors of the eight states have rebelled four times."

indivual.'

The four governors on the left clearly sided with Shi Ao, and the rebels and traitors were confirmed.

On the right, two governors have arrived.

A middle-aged man with a gray complexion and a slightly stooped figure, this is Xue Qi, the governor of Dongzhou.

A man eight feet tall, with a broad face and big ears, and a thick short beard, is Zuo Qiuming, the governor of Jiangzhou.

The two remaining governors of Yuezhou and Yanzhou have not yet arrived, and the military leaders from various places have to go to the Ministry of War to report on their duties, and then they will come to see the new emperor under the leadership of the chief minister.

Except Shi Ao.

This person is also the governor of Youzhou, and the entire army of Youzhou is under his control. In terms of rank, he is at the same level as Qu Wuya, and the Tiece Army stationed on the border all year round is also not part of the military department.

The above seven people, plus the newly appointed Jingzhao Prefecture Yin, are all the officials in Ziwei Palace at this time. As for the other officials and everyone's entourage, they are still waiting outside.

"I don't even know that the governor of Jingzhao has been replaced." King An said quietly, looking at Shen Yi who was wearing an official uniform with a demonic style.

"This was an appointment made by the late Emperor Bintian. After seeing the imperial edict, the former Yin of the Jingzhao Prefecture decisively abdicated the throne in favor of someone worthy of his appointment. He even asked his ministers to show their faces and become familiar with the prince."

Shen Yi took something out of his sleeves with a smile, "By the way, the late Emperor Bintian also issued an imperial edict before. This imperial edict should have been issued immediately after the Battle of Cangjiang, but it was delayed due to the assassination of the thieves.

Come down. I thought that as the emperor’s younger brother who made the decree himself, the prince should also want to know the content of the last decree of the late emperor, so I brought this imperial edict with me."

The imperial edict stamped with the mysterious dragon mark was taken out from his sleeve, and the shining luster of the mysterious light attracted everyone's attention at the first moment.

"This edict has been approved and recorded by the Menxia Province. It was signed and sealed by the late Chief Minister Shang Yang and the Menxia Province Minister Zhu Daoming, and also by the Menxia Province Minister Gong Boyun. Although the two signatories are now deceased, they

Gong Boyun is still here, if the prince has any questions, he can summon Gong Boyun to come and confirm."

Imperial decree······

King An had an unexpected and reasonable feeling in his heart.

Since Shi Ao and others dared to come, they naturally had something to rely on, and the imperial edict was the expected reliance.

The opponent's purpose of storming Menxia Province and assassinating the old chief minister was finally revealed.

In his heart, King An eliminated the suspicion of Wan Chunqiu, the chief minister.

Wan Chunqiu regained his vitality because of the death of his chief assistant. Although King An felt that Wan Chunqiu had been weakened by death, his spine was broken, and he did not dare to betray, he still had some doubts.

After all, Wan Chunqiu was also one of the beneficiaries of Shou Fu's death.

"There is no need to summon him, just show him the imperial edict," King An said, stretching out his palm, "I still know the teacher's handwriting and divine intention."

He thus acquiesced to the newly appointed Jingzhao Prefect and asked Shen Yi to hand over the imperial edict.

There was no hint of joy or anger in his indifferent tone, nor could he detect any murderous intent. However, when King An stretched out his palm, there was still a heavy coercion in everyone's hearts.

The danger of handing over the imperial edict in person was even more dangerous than facing the heretic king that day.

If King An had murderous intentions, at such a close distance, no one present would dare to say that they could take it.

But Shen Yi's expression remained unchanged, he held up the imperial edict in one hand, nodded and said: "Yes."

He walked forward steadily, stepping onto the steps in front of the throne step by step. As he gradually approached, an invisible force surrounded him like a sea wave.

Was it King An who had murderous intentions and gained momentum?

Or is it that his gaze makes people think he has murderous intentions?

It's unclear who caused this invisible force, but Shi Ao and others were able to instinctively tighten their bodies as if they were facing it themselves.

distance, gradually getting closer.

When the imperial decree came into contact with King An's palm, the invisible force reached its peak.

"What will happen if I kill you and destroy the imperial edict?"

An erratic voice came to Shen Yi's ears, each word was heavier than Mount Tai, making the invisible pressure continue to multiply.

"Your Majesty, do you think this imperial edict is true or false?" Shen Yi's lips didn't move, but his spiritual thoughts sent a message back with a smile.

He didn't seem to care about the threat at all. It was obvious that he was the one who came forward to hand over the imperial edict, but his mental state was completely opposite to that of the nervous people behind him.

And if this imperial edict is true, then King An will naturally succeed if he destroys it.

If it is false, then if he destroys it, then the false thing will become true.

If it is false and Shen Yi has another true copy, Prince An's behavior will undoubtedly appear embarrassing and petty.

"The imperial decree can come true if it is destroyed, but if you die, you will not be able to come back to life." King An said.

"But I don't care."

Shen Yi stood on the last step, raised his head slightly, and met Wang An's eyes. Chaos seemed to be surging in his eyes. Did his eyes reveal joy or fear? Joy or panic?

No one can see it.

And while they were talking, hexagrams suddenly appeared in the Ziwei Palace, floating in the air.

Tai Shihou!

This black fan leader was seduced by Wu Yin last time, allowing Shen Yi's plan to succeed. This time, he will not be absent.

However, this time Shen Yi's side, or the person behind Shi Ao, was also prepared.

At the same time that the hexagrams appeared, there was a sudden muffled sound in the sky, and a powerful, strong, upright and powerful Qi suddenly descended, shattering the hexagrams in the Ziwei Palace.

Xuanqing Palace·Qingying!

King An had a keen insight into who this energy came from, and at the same time he also understood another source of support for the other party.

The imperial edict is a name, and what Qingying represents is power.

Having both fame and power gives the opponent the confidence to enter the imperial city and fight against him.

Qingying is just the beginning. After Qingying, other strong men will come.

King An's enemies seized this opportunity and came together today.

"You will never lose alone."

King An spoke calmly, his words still not making any waves. He held the imperial edict with his five fingers and took it from Shen Yi's hand.
