"Ling'er, you hide and let us press over them." Liang He rode on his horse, guarding Yan Ling tightly, wanting to have a fight with De Fei Liang Yi
"Kill!"
The palace door was suddenly opened, and a group of volunteers rushed in, protecting Liang Heyanling and their leader was Prince Su.
Everyone was stunned at this moment, and Liang He's worried mood eased a bit.
Prince Su rode a tall horse and rode alongside Liang He.
"He'er, uncle is late. Don't worry, I will escort you to see the emperor."
Prince Su was shining brightly in the general's armor, and Concubine De's eyes froze when she saw this.
He was still as handsome and brave as when he was a boy, and the admiration he felt when he was young gradually came to his heart.
Prince Su couldn't see Concubine De's gaze at all. He waved his hand and everyone raised their weapons to face Concubine De and the others.
Concubine De looked embarrassed and called out to Prince Su in a jerky voice: "Are you sure you want to confront the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty?"
Concubine De did not dare to say that she was going against herself. She knew that she was not qualified.
Prince Su straightened his back, without even a glance, and rode on his horse to protect the two of them tightly.
Liang Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and commanded his soldiers to attack.
The training of Prince Su's volunteer army was incomparable to that of soldiers in the ordinary army. Soon, few of Liang Yi's soldiers were killed.
Yan Ling was shocked. They looked like ordinary soldiers, but their combat capabilities were several times better than that of one soldier.
If you can cultivate such excellent soldiers, then I must be no exception.
Liang Yi looked at the people who were killed in a few moments, secretly shouted that it was useless, and quickly asked the archers on the city wall to prepare.
Before they could shoot, all the archers who took out their weapons fell down one by one and fell directly along the wall.
Liang Yi was in a bad situation and wanted to run away with Concubine De, but was discovered by Prince Su.
"You are the masters here, what will happen if you leave?" Prince Su asked people to capture Concubine De and Liang Yi.
Prince Su was afraid that there would be someone ambushing him behind, so he led Liang He and Yan Ling to meet the emperor along the way.
The emperor checked everything from beginning to end and made sure that everything was fine. He asked Prince Su to go down and wait: "You should know what happened when I heard that you were here today."
"Father, please let me know." The two of them handed over their hands.
The emperor looked at Yan Ling. The more he looked, the more he looked like him, and his face became a little softer.
"Yan Ling, you already know your life experience. I objected to you and He'er being together before because you are the scholar's daughter. Now I have realized my mistake. It was my confusion that made me sit down and be so helpless. I hope you can forgive me."
The emperor looked at Yan Ling like an old father begging for a child's forgiveness.
This matter was a grudge between the previous generation, and Yan Ling didn't want to involve more people because of it, so he could only nodded.
The emperor looked at Liang He again: "He'er, I feel guilty for what you did to your mother and concubine. On the surface, you don't care about me, but in your heart you still resent me. Now that the fate of the country is at stake, I hope you can grasp the balance. .”
Liang He pursed his lips as if he was very reluctant. Yan Ling beside him kept gesturing to him, but he could only smile.
The emperor saw Yan Ling's actions.
"Now the ministers of the DPRK are eyeing the throne with covetous eyes and wondering when I can leave. I have called you here today in the hope that you can take over this important task."
The emperor tremblingly took out the jade seal and photo from behind him and handed them to Liang He.
Liang He was deeply afraid that the emperor would be carried by the weight of the jade seal and fall to the ground, so he quickly placed the jade seal on the table and covered the emperor with a quilt.
The emperor shook his head. He was about to die, and he couldn't feel the warmth of this quilt.
The emperor handed his hand to Yan Ling and motioned for her to help him get up. Liang He quickly stepped forward to help. He was already as thin as a skeleton and weighed nothing at all.
He helped the emperor to the window. Outside, Concubine De and Liang Yizheng were being detained by Prince Su's volunteer army and kneeling on the ground. Prince Su was watching from the side.
"Prince Su is your uncle and a good right-hand man."
The emperor turned around and lay back on the bed, holding Liang He's hand, and explained a lot of things with some worry. He was not feeling well these days, so he knew more or less what was going on in the court.
Liang He nodded in agreement.
Holding Liang He's hand, he seemed to have no strength and fell directly onto the bed.
Liang He didn't seem to react, looking at his father's face peacefully, as if he was asleep. Yan Ling also looked at the emperor in fear.
Yan Ling had experienced life and death, so he was a little frightened when he saw this, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Liang He quickly covered Yan Ling's eyes to prevent her from looking, and forcefully prevented him from holding back the tears in his own eyes.
After a long time, he shouted: "Here we come!"
The father-in-law who was following the emperor immediately ran away, came to the scene and looked at the scene in front of him. Fo Chen also lost his mind: "The emperor has passed away!"
What!
Concubine De looked up at the palace in disbelief. She broke free and tried to go in, but was pressed tightly by Prince Su's people. Liang Yi also lost his vitality.
It's over, everything is over.
"No, I don't believe it. I want to go in to find the emperor. Prince Su, let go of me. I want to go in!" Concubine De looked at Prince Su with hatred. If he hadn't done everything he could, he would have succeeded.
Prince Su bowed down to the palace three times in the most solemn way, stood up, looked at Concubine De, and took out a yellow scroll from his arms.
"By the fate of heaven and the emperor's edict, the concubine De and his wife felt guilty. They formed a clique with the intention of rebelling. In memory of their old companions, they were ordered to be sent to Wu Nian Temple to be tonsured and become monks. They were not allowed to leave the temple for the whole year. The third prince, Liang Yi, Remembering that I was taught and ordered to be imprisoned in the Three Emperors Mansion, I cannot take a step forward. I admire this."
Prince Su threw the yellow scroll directly on Concubine De. He had no need to pity people like Concubine De at all.
Liang He and Yan Ling handled the funeral of the late emperor together and prepared for the enthronement ceremony.
The enthronement ceremony was held three days later. The queen should have been established after the throne was stable, but Liang He directly appointed Yan Ling as the queen and took Yan Ling with him to the enthronement ceremony.
This move attracted opposition from ministers from all sides, including Yan Ling's father, Prime Minister Yan, among them.
Liang He held Yan Ling's hand tightly and asked his father-in-law beside him to read out the imperial edict.
"By God's will, the new emperor issued an edict to abolish Prime Minister Yan, Minister De, and Yushi Bai. Their positions will be selected by the Ministry of Rites. Moreover, the three families were previously involved in corruption and rebellion. They are now ordered to be imprisoned in Tianlao and handed over to the clan for judgment."
The Prime Minister, Lord De and Bai Yushi all jumped out at this statement.
"What do you mean by this, Your Majesty? This veteran is loyal to this country, why should he judge us!"
I didn't want to say that Liang He asked people to present the evidence one by one. The witnesses and physical evidence were all there. The three of them could only admit that they would also implicate other people one by one.
Then came the ceremony to worship the heaven. Liang He and Yan Ling just stepped onto the altar, and the five colors of the sky responded, calling it auspiciousness from heaven.
Yan Ling dragged his clothes and stood beside Liang He. Suddenly his vision went dark and he fainted and fell to the ground. Liang He supported Yan Ling and quickly summoned the imperial doctor.
The imperial doctor took his pulse and said with a happy face: "Congratulations to the Emperor on the auspicious birth of your son."
Liang He looked at Yan Ling in surprise. He didn't expect such a big surprise. He immediately sent Yan Ling back to the palace to rest. He regarded Yan Ling as the mother of heavenly auspiciousness and could share the world with him.
