Chapter 93: Virtue

The prince looked at the copper crane dripping in the corner of the side hall again. It was already six o'clock in the hour of Hai, and he was a little uneasy and called a young official: "Where is Li Fuguo? Where has he been?"

The young servant reported: "The envoy of Li's house is in the east wing, and several ministers are discussing the final details."

The prince patted his forehead and laughed: "I forgot, he is also consuming his life."

He asked again: "Why is it so noisy outside?"

The little vow said, "All officials are waiting for Xuan in front of Hanyuan Palace."

The prince laughed again: "I forgot this, haha... how many have you come?"

Xiaohuan said again: "Look, there are always three or five hundred people who are still arriving one after another."

The prince took a deep breath, paced back and forth twice, and finally the palace supervisor came in to report: "Your Highness, please see the six ministers."

The prince quickly sat down: "Xuan!"

Gao Lishi took the lead and followed Yang Guozhong, Chen Xuanli, Fang Guan, Li Fuguo and Yuan Zai. Six men entered one after another, lined up in front of the prince, and all bowed down.

The prince quickly shouted and asked, "What else do you have?"

Gao Lishi glanced at Yang Guozhong. Yang Guozhong took out a silk book from his sleeve and replied: "After your highness ascended the throne, he would promulgate the edict. In addition to An rebels, he would pardon the world. This is a draft of the edict. The time is too urgent. The Political Affairs Hall has drafted it for your Highness. Please read it. If everything is correct, please use a seal."

Xiao Huancheng came on, and the prince hurriedly looked at it and nodded: "Ke."

Yang Guozhong took out the second silk book: "This is the second edict of Your Highness to announce. Please check it out and determine the order of the court and the people to safeguard the world."

The prince looked at it carefully this time, and the imperial edict directly confirmed the identities of the six ministers and granted eight official titles.

He was appointed Gu Zuo as the Grand Tutor and was appointed Duke of Wu. The former Duke of Wu Li Yuan of the King of Wu County in Jinnan.

The General of the Cavalry, Gao Lishi, was appointed as the Minister of Eunuchs, and was appointed as the Minister of State. He was appointed as the Minister of State. He was appointed as the Duke of Qi.

The Secretariat Order Yang Guozhong was named Duke Wei.

General Chen Xuanli of Longwu was appointed as the champion general, and also led the Yulin Army and was awarded the title of Duke of Cai.

The Minister of Personnel, and the Minister of the Central Secretariat, served as Fang Guan, and was appointed as the Minister of State. He was appointed as the Minister of State and was named the Marquis of Xinxiang.

The ten kings' envoy Li Fuguo was transferred to the envoy of Nei Shesheng and was appointed General Qianniu.

Yuan Zai, the deputy branch of the Ministry of Revenue, was appointed as the Minister of Revenue, and was appointed as the political affairs officer.

These were all decided before. The prince had no objection to ascend the great treasure early. But seeing that he was about to declare an edict when he ascends the throne today, he felt a little uncomfortable. Not to mention anything else, Gao Lishi's Shangshu Ling and Yang Guozhong's Duke of Wei were so dazzling.

After hesitating for a while, he finally sighed and nodded in agreement: "But." Although he was already in Hanyuan Hall, he had also put on the crown and the Tiantian crown, which was so high-sounding, but after all, there was still a last step before he ascended the throne. It was less than two minutes away. He gave up these people in the hall, annoyed them. He could really ruin his major affairs. I can't agree.

Yang Guozhong took out the third edict. When the prince opened his eyes, his eyelids couldn't help but thrive.

This is an edict to discuss the crime, which is the crime of the eldest son of King Guangping, who is charged with spying on Dabao and assassinating important officials.

Although the culprits, Tang Songyuan, Liu Luogu and Li Tingjian were dead, although Feng Buqi and Wei Bafeng were not rescued, and although Cheng San was imprisoned and gritted his teeth and refused to admit it, there was still Cheng Yuanzhen.

At first, Cheng Yuanzhen was also very tough under Liu Xuanji's punishment. Even if he brought a tiger bench, he refused to let go. However, after Luo Jun named Xue Dingtu to be responsible for the interrogation, Cheng Yuanzhen did not last an hour.

Cheng Yuanzhen's confession shows that although King Guangping did not explicitly say that he assassinated Gu Zuo, he said almost explicit words such as "learning a lesson to Gu" and "I don't want to see this person again". In order to help Tang Songyuan, he also provided the poem.

As for joining Liu Luogu and Li Tingjian, Cheng Yuanzhen firmly denied the instruction from King Guangping. He believed that Tang Songyuan was doing his own thing, and the purpose should be to rescue An Qingzong, who was detained by Dali Temple.

At this point, the case should have been revealed. Although "the evidence is not established", it still depends on the meaning of the six ministers who are in charge of life. Even Li Fuguo and Yuan Zai, the backbone of the princeling party, thought the facts were very clear, the evidence and organization were completely self-consistent and irrefutable.

Since the crime is determined and how to convict it, the prince needs to decide. This is what Gu Zuo means: whoever is the one will be solved.

Of course, this problem needs to be solved. The prince understood that this might be the last obstacle before he ascended the throne.

After pondering for a moment, the prince asked, "What does Mr. Gu mean?"

Gao Lishi said: "The Grand Tutor means that he is the son of His Highness after all. No matter what, he has to consider it for His Highness. This is the dignity of the country. Therefore, His Highness will punish him as much as he says."

The prince sighed. After all, King Guangping is his own son. Even if he doesn't eat his son, he is not a human being? The ideal way to deal with it is to remove his post from his post and get the rebellious son to apologize to Mr. Gu. When Mr. Gu's anger fades in the future, he will add it slowly. He still attaches great importance to this son.

But... since things involve major policies, it's amazing! This vilified son, who did such a thing behind his back and forth, did not necessarily mean to blame him!

"Deprived of the title of king and demoted to common people..." Speaking of this, seeing Gao Lishi, Yang Guozhong, Chen Xuanli and others frowned, he paused again, gritted his teeth and said, "Abolish the cultivation level!"

After saying this, the prince continued to observe his expressions and expressions. If these people were still dissatisfied, he could only have a glass of poisoned wine.

But when he saw all six people kowtowed and said, "Abide by the order!" The prince finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Guozhong said: "There is still something. The Grand Master asked, how should Concubine Shen deal with it?"

The prince asked: "Doesn't this matter involve Concubine Shen?"

Yang Guozhong said: "Your Highness misunderstood. Concubine Shen is the senior sister of the Grand Master. The Grand Master wants to protect Concubine Shen. He suggested that Concubine Shen be separated from King Guangping and ask His Highness to make the decision."

Yuan Zai suggested: "Shen Fei is virtuous and filial, and after the separation, he should be supported by the court and be granted the title of wife."

The prince nodded: "Then I will be awarded the title...Madam Yue."

The resting man next to him wrote like a flying poem, while the prince asked the six guards: "Do you still have this chapter?"

Everyone answered "No", so Li Fuguo stood up and shouted: "Welcome the prince into Xuanzheng Hall and be worshiped by all officials!"

The prince finally let go of his heart, and was so dizzy that he was hugged by Liu Gu's life. He landed on the throne, looking at the civil and military officials led by Gu Zuo in the hall, and hundreds of officials above the eighth rank in the capital who extended outside the hall, and felt as if he was in a dream, his calves were trembling faintly.

"I'm finally here!"

On the night of the 28th day of the first lunar month, at midnight, Prince Li Heng ascended the throne of emperor in Xuanzheng Hall and changed his reign to Zhide.
