Inside the main hall of Beiyan Palace.

The northern Yan is still dark, so most of the palaces appear extremely gloomy and depressing.

But today, the atmosphere in the entire Beiyan Palace was even more depressing, because Xiang Long was almost unable to hold on.

Dozens of core figures of the Xiang royal family in the Northern Yan gathered in the palace. Xiang Long was lying on the bed, his breath was extremely depressed. Several imperial doctors were in a hurry and sweating profusely, but they did not dare to stop, for fear that one of them would be taken to be buried with him.

If you count the people present in the Northern Yan royal family, except for a younger brother who hated Xiang Long, the others did not look sad or even were very indifferent.

The emperor and the royal family are two different concepts.

In Beiyan, only the direct lineage of Xiang Long's lineage can take over the throne. Even if the people in his lineage are useless, a waste must take over the throne, because they are the direct lineage.

As for other Northern Yan royal families, they may have been the direct descendants of the royal family, but since their ancestors were enfeoffed, they have only been members of the Xiang family royal family.

For them, the so-called dynasty is more like a family.

They fought to the Xiang family's dynasty and contributed their strength, while the emperor needed to use the power of the entire dynasty to support them in order to maintain his position. The two sides had such a simple relationship.

So as Xiang Long died, they were neither sad nor happy. Anyway, as long as the emperor who ascended the throne could bring them enough benefits as usual, that would be enough.

But they are not sad, but it does not mean that Xiang Chong is not sad.

Xiang Chong has never been a cold-blooded person, so when he saw Xiang Long compete for the throne with his elder brother, he was very sad and hated Xiang Long deeply. However, when he saw Xiang Long dying, although he still hated Xiang Long, he was still sad.

After working for a long time, several imperial physicians looked at each other and had to say to Xiang Chong: "Your Majesty, I have already become strong. Your Majesty has exhausted his energy and his spirit has begun to dissipate. It is no longer a medicine stone to treat. Even if you have the Nine-Turn Divine Pill, it is useless."

"Can you let the emperor speak again?" Xiang Chongqiang said, holding back the grief in his heart.

One of the imperial physicians nodded and said, "This is OK, but forcibly stimulating Your Majesty's spirit will dissipate faster."

Xiang Chong hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said, "Go and let the emperor leave a few more words in the end."

The imperial physician nodded, took out a silver needle and stabbed several large acupoints on Xiang Long's body. Xiang Long, who seemed to be dead, coughed twice. His godless eyes turned to Xiang Chong, and the corner of his mouth pulled a curve, and said weakly: "You finally called me the emperor again."

When Xiang Chong's first words said, Xiang Chong's eyes turned red.

"Brother, what else do you want to say?" Xiang Chong asked, holding Xiang Long's hand.

Xiang Long shook his head weakly and said, "It's all arranged, there's nothing I want to say. I've tried my best. After Yu'er ascended the throne, he will see him."

Speaking of this, Xiang Long suddenly held Xiang Chong's hand tightly, as if he had used all his strength and said the last sentence: "I am unwilling to accept it! But I don't regret it!"

As the words fell, the vitality on Xiang Long completely disappeared, and Xiang Chong finally couldn't help it and tears fell.

"Brother!"

Xiang Long had long been unable to explain the right and wrong of his life.

As a brother, he killed his brother and seized the throne and killed his mother and his brother without any mercy. He was extremely cold-blooded.

As a father, even Xiang Chong, who was the most beloved by him, had not received much teaching from him, which also led to his disagreement in his face, his heart, and his brothers' conflicts.

But as the emperor of Northern Yan, he was qualified and even excellent.

Beiyan was originally just one of the many small countries in the world. Without him, Xiang Long, even if there was a waste emperor in Dongqi, he could sweep across Liuhe with the size of Dongqi, directly destroy many small countries in the world and unify the country.

But it was because of the Northern Yan and Xiang Long that he was allowed to unite with the Northern Yan Wulin, the Western Chu, and any force that could be united, which eventually blocked the expansion of the Eastern Qi Dynasty and made it stand in a three-legged position today.

He was unwilling to accept it because today's emperors are all mediocre people. As long as he is given time, Dongqi cannot sweep Liuhe, he can! Dongqi cannot unify the world, he can!

He did not regret it because even though Xiang Long was despised by millions of people, even if he was hostile to his own brother for a lifetime, he would still make such a choice if he asked him to do this again.

Right and wrong, merit and demerit are left to be commented on by future generations. Anyway, Xiang Long will have no regrets in this life!

In the 62nd year of Zhaowu in Northern Yan, Xiang Long died.

Before Xiang Long's death, Beiyan experienced a period of peace, but with his death, the entire Beiyan had already been undercurrent.

Before Xiang Long died, no prince was summoned. His will had been written long ago. If nothing unexpected happened, Xiang Chong would ascend the throne, but how could things go so smoothly?

In the prince's uterus, Xiang Chong was sad, but more ecstatic. This day finally came!

Xiang Li was in the mansion. After hearing the news, he locked himself in a dark room without seeing anyone.

The last moment has finally arrived, and he will reach the top and lose. He should commit suicide as soon as possible. Xiang Chong will even make him die ugly.

In the Zhenwu Hall, Chu Xiu had no expression on his face because he had been planning for a long time on this day, and the outcome was a success or failure, and this was a one-stop move!

After Xiang Long's death, the funeral will of course be held first.

It was only after the funeral that Xiang Chong's ascension ceremony was made.

In the palace, the Northern Yan royal family, the military, and some nobles and generals have all arrived.

As the chief governor of Zhenwu Hall, Chu Xiu naturally stood at the top.

Even in addition to these people who belong to Beiyan, Xi Yunzi and Shumako from Chunyang Taoist Sect, and Xuyan also came.

However, both of them were injured and not yet ready. This time they came here just to watch the ceremony, and they were still hostile to each other.

The dragon chair was hanging in the air, and on the high platform, an old man with white hair and beard slowly walked out with Xiang Long's will with the help of others.

He is the oldest generation of the Xiang royal family. Although his strength is not very good, and he is even at the point where his life span is approaching, he still has to be the host of such occasions.

Xiang Chong knelt on the ground. As the Thirteenth Prince, he was kneeling in front of everyone. The other princes looked at Xiang Chong with complex eyes.

Although this Thirteenth Prince was special before and was most favored by Xiang Long, no one thought that he would be able to ascend the throne in the end.

Of course, they have no other thoughts except jealousy.

Among all Xiang Long's descendants, Xiang Li had the greatest advantage before. Even if Xiang Li couldn't do this position, it was not their turn anyway. Therefore, the princes present were just jealous, but not jealous.

Although Xiang Chong lowered his head at this time, there was only one thing in his eyes, that was the golden dragon throne at the front, which was about to belong to him!

Although the dragon chaise is not good-looking or gorgeous, because it is used all year round, some dragon patterns on the dragon chaise have even been smoothed out.

But that position represents power, controlling the imperial power of the entire Northern Yan!

Before, these were just dreams, but now they appeared in front of him. How could Xiang Chong not be nervous? He was already nervous and trembling slightly.

The ancestor of the Xiang royal family stood in front and said in a old but powerful voice: "Xiang Chong, Your Majesty has passed away. Before he leaves, he will make you the crown prince. I hope you will not let him down.

Among the Three Kingdoms in the world, the right time, place and people are equal, and I, Beiyan, did not occupy the same territory, but under the leadership of His Majesty, I defended this country.

Now that His Majesty has left, the next burden will be on you. Do you have confidence?”

Xiang Chong hurriedly bowed and said, "Of course I have confidence. The father's will be in front of me. I will definitely inherit the father's will, lead the Northern Yan, sweep across Liuhe, and unify the Central Plains!"

The ancestor of the Xiang royal family nodded, and was about to read Xiang Long's will and let Xiang Chong officially ascend the throne.

But at this time a voice rang out inappropriately: "Your Highness the Crown Prince has confidence, but I don't.

Sweeping across Liuhe? But I am afraid that the Northern Yan will be destroyed by you within a few years after you ascend the throne by Your Highness!”

Everyone present suddenly looked up and looked in the direction where the sound came out.

Chu Xiu stood up so proudly, without any scruples, and instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Both Momako and Xuyan looked up at each other at the same time.

Is Chu Xiu crazy? He openly opposed Xiang Chong's ascension to the throne and interfered in the affairs of the Northern Yan royal family. This is an enemy of the entire Northern Yan Dynasty!

Xiang Chong shouted angrily: "Chu Xiu! What do you want to do? This is the imperial court's throne ceremony, not a place where you can speak loudly! Do you want to rebel?"

Chu Xiu said coldly: "Rebel? Prince, your Xiang royal family is the royal family of Beiyan and the controller of Beiyan, but don't forget that we also live in Beiyan, and are also part of Beiyan!

I am not rebelling. When Your Majesty was there, even if I had some ideas with Your Majesty, have you ever seen me say half of the word "no"?

Your Majesty is a great master of a generation, and we are all relieved to be in his hands.

But this prince is not a qualified emperor, and it is definitely a disaster to let him control the Northern Yan.

I have no intention of rebelling, nor can I rebel, but I want to ask you to consider clearly whether such a person is really suitable for succession to the throne?

Before his Majesty's death, his eyes were blurred and he couldn't see people's hearts clearly, so he chose such a person.

A qualified emperor can lead the Northern Yan from a small country of the Northern Barbarians to the point where he is now fighting against the Dong Qi.

But what about an unqualified emperor? That is a disaster!

Don’t forget the incident of the Jiang family in Lu Dynasty in the East Qi Dynasty.

The emperor's surname is Xiang, but it doesn't have to be Xiang Chong!"
