Chapter 197
Chapter 197
There is only one ending left in the canonization hall, why is someone beating the Dengwen drum at this time?
Not everyone in this world is qualified to beat the Wengu, except for the court officials and local officials, only court wives have this qualification.
Today, all civil and military officials are listed in the imperial court, so naturally they cannot be from the imperial court.
Local officials and military generals are not allowed to enter Beijing without summons, and it is impossible for civil officials to spoil the emperor's happiness during this important national event.
Who is it?
There are laws in Dazhao, but whenever you beat Dengwen drum, you must go to the hall to ask why.
After all, no one would go to the temple to beat the Dengwen drum in general, and it must be a matter of fate to watch the sky when there is a commotion to the point of beating the Dengwen drum.
No matter how unhappy the emperor was, he had to temporarily suspend the canonization ceremony and asked, "Who is complaining?"
Immediately, a little eunuch hurried in and bowed down in a panic: "Slave...slave..."
The emperor said angrily: "I asked you who complained, but you didn't even ask clearly?"
The little eunuch knocked his head to the ground and said, "I dare not say..."
The emperor said angrily: "What dare not say? I am here, what else dare not say?"
All the ministers looked at each other, but they didn't know who was beating the drum, so they didn't dare to say anything.
The little eunuch trembled and said: "He he he he...he is...His Royal Highness the Queen!"
Everyone in the court was in an uproar, Lu Hanzhi turned his head to look at Su Wanning with a smile on his lips, how could he be sick?
Su Wanning's face also revealed a look of doubt, Your Royal Highness?Not the empress?Explain that the person who came is not a waste.
Zong Yuan is clearly in the palace, where did Her Highness the Empress come from?
The emperor also asked in this way: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your Royal Highness is right in front of the palace, where did your Highness come from!"
The little eunuch trembled and said: "Your Majesty, I dare not lie, he is really Your Highness the Empress, as if it were a fake...Your Highness the Empress."
Lu Hanshang stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, since you can't find out the reason for asking this way, why don't you let that person come into the palace, and you will know the truth if you don't look at it."
Lin Xiang also stepped forward: "Yes, Your Majesty, since the little Huangmen speaks so convincingly, it's better to let the man who beat the drum enter the hall for questioning."
Both Yin Xiang and the crown prince didn't know what was going on, and they didn't have any reason to stop the visitor from going to the palace.
Since the other party beat the Dengwen drum, it means that he has a status, but he doesn't know why he calls himself a queen. Isn't this nonsense?
The emperor also knew that this matter must not be so easy to pass.
So he waved his hand and said, "Come on, Xuan!"
Xiao Huangmen's voice was trembling, but he could barely hear what he was shouting: "The Holy One proclaims that the Lord of Suffering is coming to the palace!"
Soon, two young men, one in front and one behind, stepped into the temple.
The ministers immediately seemed to be blown up, and they didn't even know how to avoid taboos, and they all focused on the two men.
"This... this, this, this, is it really Her Royal Highness the Queen?"
"Like! It's so similar! Ah... Do you think Yin Xiang?"
"Isn't this the real Empress Yin? San... Did Sansheng Mausoleum cheat the corpse?"
"Stop talking nonsense, look at this hall, there is a shadow, it is alive!"
"How could this be? But isn't Empress Yin... already dead?"
……
Yin Pingwu was crowned empress after his death, and he said that he was a queen, so naturally no one dared to refute.
This time the matter became embarrassing. There was a queen in the hall, a queen in the lower hall, and the two queens looked at each other. For a while, the hall became quiet as if a needle could be heard.
The emperor rubbed his eyes again and again, he tremblingly took two steps down the steps, almost lost his footing, unable to believe what he saw.
Fortunately, the eunuch next to him who announced the decree had sharp eyesight and quick hands, but he supported the emperor, but the decree fell to the ground.
Zong Yuan's robe corner was smashed by the imperial decree, so he had no choice but to stand up and pick up the imperial decree.
But he saw that the imperial decree rolled down the steps and fell to the bottom of the steps, just in front of Yin Pingwu.
Yin Pingwu was dressed in plain clothes, with a white jade hairpin, no extra ornaments on his body, only a cluster of green bamboo embroidered on the corner of his robe.
This familiar figure, this familiar dress, this familiar temperament.
The man is the same as before, but he has matured a lot, but he is still so beautiful that people can't take his eyes off.
What is even more shocking is not that Yin Pingwu came to the front of the hall, but that a young man in his 20s followed behind him.
That young man looked a little like Yin Pingwu, and even a little like an emperor.
What is the identity of the visitor, the ministers are naturally the most understandable.
Yin Pingwu smiled at the emperor, didn't kneel down, but said with a normal face, "Ayu, are you all right?"
The name of the emperor is taboo, and no one has called it for too long.
Some people almost forgot that the emperor's nickname was Yu Wenmingyu.
The childhood sweetheart in his youth naturally had a different name from others.
But when the emperor heard this nickname, he trembled uncontrollably.
Too many memories, too many unbearable ones, flooded out of his mind like a tide.
The emperor seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden, and his temples turned gray instantly.
He had imagined countless times that he would confront Yin Pingwu in the underworld after his death, but he never thought that he could confront him without going to the underworld.
He thought he would go crazy, be bewildered, argue with reason, and... do everything in his power to justify.
But he didn't, he just smiled wryly and asked, "Are you still...alive?"
Yin Pingwu's voice was as clear and clear as ever, only a little more mellow.
He said: "Thanks to you, these years have been pretty good. I planned to never see each other again in this life, but who knows... I still want to ask the emperor a few more words."
The emperor said, "What do you want to ask?"
His voice was hoarse and rough, in stark contrast to Yin Pingwu's.
All the ministers were also surprised, the emperor had been in love with Yin Pingwu for many years, why did he not even have the slightest enthusiasm when seeing him again?
Only Yin Xiang, who knew the truth, was a little flustered looking at all this. Everything he had laid down for many years was wasted because of Yin Pingwu's return.
Yin Pingwu didn't get right to the point, but said, "Ah Yu, you're getting old."
The emperor looked down at his hands, the joints were thick, and although the hands were not rough, they were still full of wrinkles.
He is only in his 40s!
Why are you so old all of a sudden?
Looking at the person opposite, he still looked young and beautiful.
There are countless palace people in the palace, but none of them can compare to him.
The emperor breathed up and down, and said: "Pingwu...you, can you listen to my explanation?"
Yin Pingwu shook his head and said, "If you are still my A Yu, you don't need to explain. If you are the emperor, why explain it to me?"
The emperor lowered his old eyelids and asked: "I...I am helpless, this country...is in danger at that time, I have to...have to do this! Pingwu, can you forgive me?"
Yin Pingwu shook his head again, and said: "The emperor should not ask for my forgiveness, but should ask the thirteen members of Quanxia Mu's family if they are willing to forgive you."
The emperor lowered his head and said: "I don't want to kill them, what I don't want is that they said they want to announce this matter to the world, I just... I just..."
The ministers are beginning to be confused now, what is this all about?
Why can't I understand their conversation?
Doesn't the emperor love Yin Pingwu the most?
Why is he apologizing to him?
Yin Pingwu sighed and said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember my Aunt Hui Lan who is always gentle and easy-going? She also came to visit you with her grandson who was less than one year old. Her grandson, you also I have seen it before, it is the young son Zongyuan who was later adopted by the King of Dongying in front of you. It is also... the person you want to canonize as the new empress."
The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee were blown up again. The amount of information was getting bigger and bigger, and they couldn't accept it more and more.
Finally, some information was sorted out. For some unknown reason, the emperor killed his beloved with his own hands, and then personally solved the whole family of his mother's family who knew about it?
All the ministers were stunned, saying that the most ruthless emperor's family, is this more than ruthless?It's just vicious.
However, when Zong Yuan heard this, he looked at Yin Pingwu with a surprised face, and then looked at the emperor with a surprised face, took two steps back, and fell to sit in front of the steps.
how so?How could this be the case?
He only knew that the emperor had killed the entire family of Yin Pingwu's mother's family, but he didn't know that he was actually a member of the Mu family, or the only fish that slipped through the net.
He frowned and looked at Su Wanning, but at this moment Su Wanning had already disappeared.
He looked at the prince again, but even the prince was gone.
He looked at Lu Hanzhi again, and Lu Hanzhi nodded slowly towards him.
That's right, how could two people look so similar for no reason?
It must be because of blood relationship, unexpectedly, they are nephews and uncles.
When he looked up at the dog emperor again, his eyes were full of sarcasm, how could he still have the slightest obedient look in the past?
The emperor looked at Zong Yuan, and the expression in his eyes became mocking.
I don't know if I'm mocking myself, or what.
Yin Pingwu said: "Of course I know why you killed the whole Mu family, and I also know why you killed me and my eldest son who was in my womb. My status in the Yin family is not enough to guarantee You are consolidating the imperial power. Did Prime Minister Yin promise the emperor that as long as his younger sister Yin Liwu is appointed as queen and her child is crowned prince, he will fully assist the emperor?"
As soon as these words came out, Prime Minister Yin immediately became the target of public criticism in the court.
Yin Xiang stuck his neck and said, "Nonsense! Why did you wrong me, my son?"
Yin Pingwu looked at Yin Cheng with a smile, and said, "Oh? Wronged? I have evidence here, do you want to see it?"
Yin Xiang stopped talking, and Yin Pingwu ignored him, but continued to look at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, it has been more than twenty years, you...don't use this matter to cover up what you have done. It's unbearable."
The emperor just sat there, neither speaking nor refuting.
The hair on the top of his head turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Yin Pingwu said again: "So, Your Majesty, do you... still want to continue your canonization ceremony?"
The emperor shook his head, feeling more tired than ever. He had painstakingly kept it a secret for half his life, and he had created a persona for himself for half his life. In the end, Yin Pingwu himself ripped off the fig leaf.
Yin Pingwu pulled Yin Cong, Yin Cong took a step forward and stood in front of everyone.
The ministers began to whisper again, this is the real eldest son of the emperor, and also the eldest son who should inherit the throne.
Yin Pingwu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to make things difficult. I don't want to stay for a long time when I come back this time. If I want to leave, you won't be able to find me. It's just that I have carefully raised my son for 25 years, and I will return it to you today." You. If there is anyone who wants to make up for it, then make it up to him, right?"
Compensation is the word, really used, just right.
After all, the eldest son of the emperor wears a crown, he... is just an ordinary adult man.
