King Ning gave an order, and a group of guards rushed in. Mochou and Mo Yan immediately took a step forward, blocking Linger's front, drew out their swords, and pointed at the group of guards to protect Ling'er's safety. Ling'er glanced coldly
Everyone.
"I advise the princess not to have a head-on confrontation with His Highness Prince Ning. Now the entire palace is ours. It is because of the kindness of His Highness Prince Ning that the princess can return to the palace safely and see the late emperor for the last time." A rough man in armor stood.
Come out.
Ling'er looked at this man without any fear and asked: "Oh, are General Xu threatening me? I dare to ask General Xu and General Wu, when my father and brother were still alive, what could I do to you?
Really? Today you have betrayed my Qi family and openly rebelled, which is really heartless and unjust."
The tone was cold, and the imperial aura was clearly revealed, but the hands hidden in the sleeves were tightly held.
Ling'er was really heartbroken. She didn't expect that the general who followed his father and stayed loyal to him could betray the Qi family today. If his father knew about it, he would definitely be very heartbroken.
General Wu, who was silent behind Prince Ning, also took a step forward and stood up and said: "Princess, please don't be alarmist. Prince Ning is also a member of the Qi family. The princess is a woman. A woman's family really can't afford it."
For the position of Emperor of Qi, it is better for the princess to recognize those who are practical as heroes, and to be a princess who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people."
General Wu's words are much more tactful than what General Xu just said. At first glance, they sound very reasonable, as if he is a loyal minister who only thinks about Qi. It is not difficult to see that this man is brave and resourceful.
.
"General Wu said it well, but I have never understood why a man who knows the current affairs is a hero. This throne belongs to the Qi family, and I will never give it up." Ling'er's tone was flat and firm, without any emotion.
After hearing this, King Ning became furious and said: "We are trying to persuade you, but it is just for the sake of the late emperor. In this case, someone will come and capture the princess."
Today, he, Prince Ning, is determined to win the throne of Qi State. After planning for so many days, there is no way out. However, he will naturally not be afraid of a woman.
Unexpectedly, after giving the order, these guards still stood on the spot, not moving at all. King Ning was a little surprised. He looked at the group of guards and said sternly: "What? Why don't you give me a hand?" General Xu and General Wu, as well as those who followed,
The ministers behind Prince Ning also became a little panicked.
"Haha, all Prince Ning's people have been replaced by me as early as last night. Now here are all my people. Naturally, they will not listen to Prince Ning's orders." A slightly loud and powerful voice
came.
Everyone looked over in surprise.
Immediately, a man wearing armor, burly, with thick eyebrows and square face, and a powerful appearance walked in with a group of people. Ling'er recognized this man as General Cheng at a glance, followed by Tong Mo and dozens of Jingwei.
The hanging heart was finally relieved. A group of guards rushed in just now. It was a lie to say that they were not afraid. After all, the safety of so many ministers and the old prime minister who were on Ling'er's side was all in her hands. She just kept holding on, without any fear.
Show it.
But when he saw General Cheng coming in, he was so moved that Uncle Cheng was finally willing to help.
Prince Ning, General Xu and General Wu looked at General Cheng in disbelief. They didn't expect that after a month of planning, he could quietly replace all the people overnight, but they didn't get any news.
"General Cheng, it's not that I covet the throne of Qi, but how Qi can allow a woman to be the emperor. I also think about the people of Qi, and I would like to ask General Cheng to think again." King Ning softened his tone and tried to
Encourage General Cheng.
The old prime minister was furious and said: "Nonsense, Prince Ning, you intend to rebel and still dare to quibble. You are really ungrateful. The crown prince of Qi has always made no distinction between men and women. Now the princess is of the orthodox blood of Qi and has the legacy of the late emperor. Naturally, she can do this."
Emperor of Qi."
Just now, the old prime minister stood aside and said nothing, just observing Ling'er secretly. Seeing Ling'er's actions at this moment, he felt very comforted. In the face of the crisis, the princess could remain calm and deal with it calmly. This is indeed the demeanor of an emperor.
He is worthy of being the emperor of Qi.
"Capture Prince Ning and a group of rebellious ministers and traitors and put them into the sky prison." Ling'er ordered the guards in a cold voice.
I am too lazy to talk nonsense with these people, not to mention that this is the imperial brother's palace, and the emperor has just passed away. His body is still cold, and Ling'er really can't bear to let Emperor Qi leave without peace of mind.
As for the previous maneuver, firstly, they did not know General Cheng's deployment, and secondly, they hoped to catch all the rebels.
"Yes." All the guards came forward, captured Prince Ning and all the loyal ministers, and forcibly dragged these people out of the hall.
The ministers who were standing on Ling'er's side suddenly felt light when they saw the rebel minister who was being dragged out and kept crying. The situation just now showed that Prince Ning was obviously determined to win.
But they had assisted the late emperor for many years, and they knew what Prince Ning was like. If he became the emperor, the people would definitely suffer. They were really unwilling to participate in the rebellion, and they all had a death mentality and stood in the spirit.
Over here.
Unexpectedly, this princess is so good, and her strategies are not inferior to those of men. She is really a blessing to the people of Qi.
Ling'er walked up to General Cheng, with some tears in her eyes. Before Ling'er could speak, General Cheng had already knelt down and said respectfully: "I congratulate your Majesty, long live my Emperor." The old prime minister and ministers
He also knelt down and worshiped.
"My dear friends, I am free of ceremony." Ling'er said to the crowd. When everyone stood up, Ling'er continued: "Today, our country of Qi is facing a huge change. My dear friends, if you can be loyal and follow the Qi family without fear of power, I really appreciate it."
I am very moved, and the late emperor’s spirit in heaven will also be pleased to see it.”
"I must swear allegiance to the emperor to the death." All the ministers said in unison.
Ling'er nodded. She knew that even she was not sure of the situation just now. These ministers still risked their lives to follow her. How could Ling'er not be grateful.
"Your Majesty, now that the late emperor has passed away, I would like to ask you to express your condolences and hold a funeral for the late emperor, and hold a coronation ceremony for the emperor on a selected day." The old prime minister stepped forward to comfort him, feeling very painful in his heart. The late emperor was still so young.
So he went.
He also understood that Ling'er had just come back and watched helplessly as his only relative left. His grandson ran away from home after a quarrel. It had been eight years. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead. He had lost his family.
He naturally understands the heartache.
Ling'er nodded and ordered: "I hope the old prime minister and General Cheng will put more thought into this court affairs."
Although this sudden change has passed, Ling'er still can't take the pain of losing a loved one indifferently. Emperor Qi is her only relative, how can she let go easily?
