When Ke Yuehua led the group to the city gate, there were already people waiting for them there. When they saw Ke Yuehua come over, they walked over.
"Second Leader, the Lord has ordered me to replace you here." That person was the person sent by Ke Zheng. The city gate guards and the leader of the imperial guards had already been taken over by the Queen.
"Alright, then I'll trouble you to bring us to the palace." Ke Yuehua led the way, directly heading for the palace gate.
There were already people working outside. When they saw the people led by Ke Yuehua, they immediately ran back to their homes. As soon as they saw that a fierce battle was going to happen, it was important to stay alive.
As if they had passed through a land devoid of people, the troops led by the Ke Yuehua unimpeded arrived at the palace city.
With the sound of Ke Yuehua being led, his subordinates occupied the position of the Forbidden Army in the palace in an orderly manner. The real Forbidden Army should have also fainted like the previous broken sword cliff subordinates.
When the Ke Yuehua had all been arranged for the troops, the sky was already bright. The court officials' palanquins arrived at the palace gates one after another, all alighting from their palanquins and entering to participate in the ceremony.
"Honored tutor, congratulations!" The assistant minister of the army, Lord Li, had always been in a position of power in the Party government. Wherever he had the upper hand, he would fall, and the Crown Prince and the other princes would not feel his sincerity and would think that he was not loyal.
This Lord Li just so happened to think that he was very smart and liked to add to his own existence. For example, Tutor Bai didn't like him anymore and was even quite disgusted with him. However, this person didn't seem to notice at all.
Tutor Bai frowned and said seriously, "Don't speak nonsense? This old man is not the only one! "
Honored tutor Bai's emotions were quite obvious, but Lord Li didn't receive them at all, and continued to speak as he chased after him.
Your daughter, Miss Bai, grew up with the Crown Prince, the young Plum Blossom Horse, and so on. With your position as the Crown Prince's tutor, you may become a national champion in the future.
Lord Li spoke softly in front of Tutor Bai's ears, as if they had some sort of secret.
"Quickly shut up. How could you and I be able to speculate about such a big matter!" Honored Tutor Bai quickly scolded Lord Li to shut up. If others knew what they would think of him, then his lifetime of purity would be ruined by this person.
Honored Tutor Bai was truly infuriated.
"Brother Bai, what are you doing? "Brother, I have something to tell you. Come, let's walk and talk." Tutor Bai's schoolmate, the Minister of the Civil Service, had coincidentally rescued him from that person.
Lord Lin pulled on Grand Tutor Bai's sleeve and said, "Brother Bai, how can you be together with that gentle scum?"
"Absolutely not." As he spoke, he seized the opportunity to distance himself from Lord Li.
When they had walked a bit further away, the pained expression on Honored Tutor Bai's face finally dissipated. He sighed in relief and said, "It's all thanks to you that I didn't know I would be pestered by that person in time."
Lord Lin pointed furiously at Honorable Bai and said, "What good is it for me to be you? Good people will always suffer losses. Especially these despicable people who have attracted the attention of the masses, I wonder what they are plotting now. "
"Brother Lin is right, I already know." Tutor Bai pushed Lord Lin towards the main hall.
"You have the ability to deal with me!" Lord Lin said angrily.
Two middle-aged men of one age and two children.
When all of the court officials who were participating in the inauguration ceremony entered the palace to register, Ke Yuehua sent people to shut the palace door.
Ke Zheng sent someone to inform him: "Second Leader, the Lord has an order, go to the main hall immediately."
At the moment, the ceremony had yet to begin. The ministers gathered with those they were familiar with and discussed how they would face the new emperor in the future.
Emperor Xian's sudden death caught them off guard. At this moment, they could only think of how to face the new Emperor based on the way the crown prince treated the world.
The court officials chattered on, but when they heard the order, "Esteemed Empress Dowager has arrived!"
They all stopped talking and knelt in unison, respectfully saying, "We pay our respects to Esteemed Empress Dowager!"
Empress Dowager Ke walked gracefully step by step to the dragon throne at the head of the palace.
"Esteemed officials, let's spend the rest of our lives!" Empress Dowager Ke opened her mouth to let them rise.
"Empress Dowager Xie." Under the leadership of the Prime Minister, the ministers all stood up. When they looked up, they saw a middle-aged man in a black robe standing behind the empress dowager. His temperament was gloomy and his face was deathly pale, as if he had not seen the sun for many days.
However, no one asked the empress dowager who it was. They were all waiting for Empress Dowager Ke to continue speaking and announce the beginning of the inauguration ceremony.
At this time, the Ke Yuehua had already entered the ceremony and was arranging everyone around the ceremony, indicating from afar that everything was ready for it.
After receiving all the looks, Ke Zheng went forward to remind Empress Dowager Ke that the plan went smoothly and could begin.
Sure enough, after Ke Zheng had finished speaking and retreated, the sound of Empress Dowager Ke crying could be heard. Her expression changed immediately, as though she was extremely saddened. "I woke up this morning to find out that he had died suddenly."
A single sentence had caused a thousand ripples and the officials immediately quietened down. They spoke up in unison, "What should we do now?"
"How could that be?"
"The death of the crown prince is to take charge of the overall situation?"
Everything was said underground, but no one stood up to ask Empress Dowager Ke.
It wasn't until the Prime Minister, Murong Qi, stepped forward and Lord Murong appeared that the entire ceremony fell into absolute silence. Only the sound of Empress Dowager Ke's sobbing could be heard, echoing throughout the entire ceremony, twitching and twitching. It could be seen that Empress Dowager Ke was reminiscing the crown prince and also knew that the news of his sudden death was true.
"This humble subject has something that I don't understand. May the empress dowager give me some pointers?" Lord Murong was not as straightforward as the people below had guessed. Instead, he answered back with a question.
Empress Dowager Ke didn't speak, but continued to cover her face and nodded.
Lord Murong understood. "May I ask Esteemed Empress Dowager, where is Crown Prince's corpse? Can this humble subject go pay his respects?"
Of course, she couldn't let them see it or else the crown prince's death wouldn't be hidden. However, Empress Dowager Ke couldn't put down her sleeves because he was faking it earlier. Not a single tear fell, and his eyes weren't red at all.
Empress Ke and the Duke of Qing, Wu Yue, stood up and said, "I believe the Crown Prince has already been prepared for burial. How can you all offend the dignity of the crown prince? Could it be that the Prime Minister wants to be disrespectful? "
Wu Yue put a huge hat on Murong Qi's head. A great disrespect was a great crime, and he might even execute nine clans for it.
"This humble subject does not dare, I only have doubts about this matter and thus decided to inquire accordingly." The Prime Minister, Lord Murong, explained.
