    In the inner court of the imperial palace, in the inner hall of Wenhua Hall.

    At this time, there was panic and screaming.

    Help!  There is an assassin!  His Majesty has been assassinated!  Help!  Imperial physician!  Your Majesty the Grandson!  hide¡­¡­

    There are many names, and if you listen carefully, you can even vaguely hear someone calling you mother.

    The chaos waited until Qiao Mu left for a few minutes before it calmed down a little. But as soon as it calmed down, someone came running over panting and reported that the Ancestral Temple was burned down by fire from the sky, and the flames could not be poured with water.  destroy.

    People in the palace were already in panic.

    At this moment, both the grandson and the other ministers present looked very ugly. The emperor of a country was killed on the spot, and the national temple was set on fire. This was a humiliation that many times the palace was invaded by foreign enemies.  .

    But they had nothing to do at this time. They could only order people to put out the fire and deploy troops at the same time. Although they knew that the possibility of catching the murderer was not very high. Even if the city was closed or something, the possibility of catching the murderer was not high.  It's high, but the appearance still needs to be done, and the city must be sealed off.

    Don¡¯t seal the city, but keep order stable.

    How dare they sound the death knell for the emperor¡¯s death.

    Soon, probably when the Imperial Ancestral Temple was completely burned, the city was completely sealed, and the imperial guards and the like strictly guarded the streets in Jinling City. After that, the death knell was naturally sounded quite seriously.  This time it was a full forty-five, ninety-five bells.

    It was only at this time that the panicked people in the city understood what had happened and that the emperor had died not long after the prince's death.

    For a time, all those selling white cloth were selling out.

    Let¡¯s talk about the palace, over there at the Wenhua Palace.

    Because of the death of the prince, the civil and military officials had actually been at the Wenhua Palace to express their condolences to the prince. So now that Emperor Xuanwu was assassinated and died, the emperor's grandson naturally did not need to summon the civil and military officials again. Everyone is here  Wenhua Hall can start the discussion directly.

    But some things are not easy to negotiate.

    Emperor Xuanwu's power and deterrence were sufficient. Although the prince was worse than Emperor Xuanwu, he had been the prince for decades. The prince's position was quite stable, so his deterrence was sufficient. However, this so-called grandson had not even participated in political affairs before.  He has no rights, and he is even studying here at Wenhua Palace. How can he be a deterrent?

    So during the discussion, many ministers simply put the grandson aside and started deliberating on their own. Some felt that the real situation should be reported to the world, and then troops were sent to search and inspect the world. The murderer must be brought to justice.  catch.

    Because this situation is too bad.

    It was much worse than the previous assassination of the prince.

    Some people think that the murderer this time should be the murderer of the previous assassination of the prince. They have worked hard to track down the murderer of the prince's assassination, but in the end, their efforts were in vain and they could only watch the princes being assassinated one after another.

    If it is still in vain after truly reporting the situation, it will only make people around the world laugh.

    It will only reduce the majesty of the royal family.

    Rather than shaking the rule like that, it would be better to say that Emperor Xuanwu died of excessive grief due to the death of the prince, thus covering up the true situation.

    Some people even think that they should find a way to contact the murderer, or rehabilitate the Shen family.

    Otherwise, continue like this.

    The royal family is about to cease to exist in name only.

    After almost all the main members of the royal family have been assassinated, can the world still be regarded as belonging to the Mu family? What if one of them is assassinated after he ascends the throne?

    Speaking of this, even the emperor's grandson, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but tremble and feel fear. He watched helplessly as Qiao Mu came in and killed his emperor's grandfather with three throwing knives.

    So it¡¯s normal to feel fear immediately after hearing that you might be killed if you ascend the throne.

    But no matter what, this matter must have a result, and there must be an explanation to the outside world.

    So after some discussion.

    To be precise, after a discussion that was almost as good as a fight, we finally came to the conclusion that we had to conceal the true cause of Emperor Xuanwu¡¯s death and declare that he died of excessive grief.

    ???????????????????????????? Anyway, he was not young, and so many sons had died before him, and the prince he loved the most died again, so it was reasonable for him to die from excessive grief.

    After announcing the news to the outside world.

    The natural next step is for the emperor¡¯s grandson to ascend the throne.

      Because the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and there is also a powerful prince on his way back. Those ministers were worried about problems with the succession of the throne, and also thought that the young emperor would be easier to control, so when Emperor Xuanwu died,  The day after that, a ceremony to worship the emperor and the succession ceremony were hurriedly arranged for the emperor's grandson, and the title of the emperor was changed to Huaishe.

    ?That is, on the third day after he succeeded to the throne.

    The two foreign princes who were ordered by Emperor Xuanwu finally hurried back. When they set off, the emperor and the prince were still alive and well. The reigning emperor was still their father. When they arrived,  When they arrived at Jinling City, both the emperor and the prince were dead, and the reigning emperor directly became their junior.

    This change really made them both unable to accept it, and they felt very conflicted.

    But no matter what, the fact is established.

    They can only start by keeping filial piety to the late emperor.

    But this was only on the surface. Secretly, they were quite defensive. At the same time, they also began to secretly contact their own private forces and arrange as many people as possible to protect their own safety. This was not only out of fear that they would be assassinated, but also out of worry about the little ones.  Will the emperor take action against them?

    Then, their fears came true.

    It¡¯s not that Qiao Mu assassinated them. Since Qiao Mu didn¡¯t kill them before, he naturally wouldn¡¯t assassinate them for no reason in the future.

    It was the little emperor who attacked them.

    That is to say, Emperor Huaipar.

    He was the first emperor in this dynasty who was completely educated by Confucianism in the true sense. Therefore, not only was his thinking deeply influenced by Confucianism, but some of his own behaviors and policies were also deeply influenced by the emperor's teachers.

    And it was his Taifu¡¯s idea to cut down the feudal vassalage.

    Nowadays, the only two relatively powerful princes are in the palace, and they don't have many people. It can be said that such a good opportunity to reduce the vassal is unprecedented. It has not happened in the past and may not happen again in the future. Therefore,  Naturally, the Taifu immediately and sincerely persuaded Emperor Huaishe to take action.

    At that time, the blame can be completely thrown on the descendants of the Shen family. Anyway, the descendants of the Shen family have already killed so many princes, and two more are not much.

    Emperor Huaishe was undoubtedly persuaded in the end.

    So the secret guards were immediately dispatched.

    ¡° Let them attack the two princes who were keeping vigil beside Emperor Xuanwu¡¯s coffin in the middle of the night.

    Although the two princes were prepared, this was not their palace after all. Moreover, they did not expect Emperor Huaishe to be so impatient to attack them. They thought Emperor Huaishe would attack them on their way back.

    So I wasn¡¯t fully prepared.

    It soon fell into crisis.

    The dagger almost pierced their chests.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
