Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The discussion in the Fengtian Hall lasted for an hour and a half. When the last ray of sunlight fell in the west, three cabinet bachelors came to the Ancestral Temple in person and invited him back to the Fengtian Hall.

    The first result of the deliberations in the Fengtian Palace is that future court deliberations will be conducted based on these general principles set by Zhao Ran.  Zhao Ran looked at the seventeen people in the hall. Each of them looked solemn, and most of them seemed to have a sense of sanctity on their faces.

    The second result was not beyond Zhao Ran's expectation: the crown prince was deposed as King Jing, and Prince Jing's palace was encircled as Jingyang Palace. King Jing was not allowed to leave the palace for the rest of his life.  The only thing that Zhao Ran didn't expect was that the reason for deposing the crown prince was extremely obscure. It did not say that he was involved in treason. Instead, the reasons for deposing were explained in terms of character and virtue, such as "unruly and unruly", such as "violent spirit".  Perverse" and so on.

    The three cabinet bachelors stared at Zhao Ran without blinking. Zhao Ran didn't know why they didn't decide that King Jing was plotting rebellion. He guessed that maybe they did it on purpose and just wanted to test whether they would be like him.  As mentioned before, we will not interfere with the outcome of the court deliberations.

    Zhao Ran looked at Gu Tengjia. Gu Tengjia nodded gently and calmly. Then he looked at Chen Hong. Chen Hong seemed to have a look of dissatisfaction on his face, as if he was hesitant to speak.

    Zhao Ran said: "Then please draft the edict according to the results of the court discussion."

    The three pavilion elders and all the important officials in the palace breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere in Fengtian Palace suddenly became lively.

    The edict was quickly drawn up, and Chen Hong approved it on behalf of the Inner Court Ceremony Supervisor, and immediately called in the few people still waiting outside the palace to sign it.  These few people were not as tough as Huo Tao and Gui E, or rather, they agreed readily.

    This kind of edict involving the crown prince must also be reviewed by the Zhenshi Hall and stamped by the Taoist representative before it can be effective. In the past, it was always the representative Chen Shandao who signed the seal. Now that the Zhenshi Hall cannot be contacted and Chen Shandao is not here, everyone is paying attention.  They all stared at Zhao Ran.

    Not even Gu Tengjia dared to be the representative of the Taoist sect, and there was no one else in the palace, not even in the capital, who could represent him.  Looking left and right, Zhao Ran thought for a moment and said to the officials: "Let me know first, this edict is a substitute edict. It will be submitted to the Zhenshi Hall for negotiation in the future." After saying this, he took the edict and put it on it.  The signature was signed and stamped with the seal of the Daolu Division handed over by Chen Hong.

    ¡°I am the abbot of Xuantan Palace, deputy seal of Daolu Division, envoy of Junshan Guard of Sanqing Pavilion, and direct descendant of Zongsheng Pavilion. With this status, I should be able to represent Taoism in today¡¯s Yingtian Mansion, right?  What is lacking now is the level of the True Master Hall, but at this time, the formation is isolated from the outside world. Zhao Ran does not mind dealing with it at the last moment. When he comes to the True Master Hall, he wants to see which true master dares to brave the disapproval of the world and openly  Clear the name of the deposed prince who plotted to assassinate the abbot of the palace!

    ??If you have no responsibility and no achievements, why are you still leading troops to Beijing?  The capital city was overthrown, and the emperor, no, the King of Qi was killed. So what if he signed an edict on the spot to depose the prince?

    As for if any true master has an objection to what he is doing, he doesn¡¯t mind spitting on the other person¡¯s face in the true master hall: When our Lou Guan sect was fighting bloody battles in the capital, where the hell were you!  Where where where

    After the edict was completed, Chen Hong went out to Fengtian Hall to announce the edict to all the officials, who all kowtowed and obeyed.

    Zhao Ran continued to assign homework to everyone: "There is a vacancy for the crown prince, so that's enough in the past. Now we can't delay it at any cost. Please continue the court discussion. Let's agree first that we are discussing about Prince Quan."

    The officials felt a little weird about the term "Prince Quan", but after thinking about it carefully, they were sorting it out, and they all looked at each other and smiled.

    Zhao Ran came out of the Fengxian Hall for a walk again, and at the same time captured a few eunuchs and palace maids, and asked them to go to the Shangshan Supervisor to urge them to get some snacks and fruits for the officials to fill their bellies first.

    With previous experience, the court meeting this time was relatively short. As soon as Supervisor Shang Shan brought the food, the court meeting ended.  The result was also very simple. His Royal Highness King Yu was elected to temporarily take charge of the East Palace and was established as "Prince Quan".

    Zhao Ran entered the palace and greeted the important ministers to eat snacks. The group also let go, grabbed the snacks and stuffed them into their mouths.  Xia Yan held a meat bun in his left hand, and in his right hand he held the edict that Yuan Wei, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, had just drafted. He read it while eating, and handed it back after reading: "You can add one sentence before 'Cheng Zhao Yan Qing'."  ¡±

    Yuan Wei took the edict, swallowed a piece of rice cake in his mouth, and asked, "Does Mr. Xia have any words?"

    Yan Song on the side took a sip of water and said: "I also think that I should add a sentence to that, I made up a 'entrustment is the most important', okay?"

    Xia Yan thought about it and nodded: "Okay."

    Yuan Wei sincerely praised: "Xiang Yan is worthy of being a master of chapters and sentences, now it is coherent!"

    It¡¯s another set of procedures, including cabinet voting, Chen Hong¡¯s approval, six subject review, and Zhao Ran¡¯s signature.

    The edict was written and Zhao Ran copied it.In his arms, he asked with a smile: "Pindao is going to Prince Yu's Mansion. Do you want to go with me?"

    Feng Bangning stood outside the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion and did not receive visitors. In fact, there would be no more visitors at this time. Those who are qualified to visit Prince Yu have now entered the palace.  Those who are not qualified to enter the palace are certainly not qualified to meet King Yu.

    Feng Bangning has been waiting for news from the palace, waiting and waiting, and finally waited for the first one: His Majesty was killed by the King of Ni Qi and has passed away!

    After hearing the news, he ran into the palace gate in panic, passed through the front yard, and rushed to the main hall: "Your Highness, uncle, Your Majesty was killed by King Qi! King Qi is also dead!"

    In the main hall, the guests of the royal palace and the chief stewards were standing in two rows. They were talking with King Yu. When they suddenly heard the news, everyone was stunned.

    King Yu tensed up, clutching the armrests of the yellow pear wood chair, and stared blankly at Feng Bangning. Feng Bao asked, "Where is Abbot Zhao?"

    Feng Bangning said: "We are gathering hundreds of officials to discuss His Majesty's posthumous affairs in the Fengtian Palace."

    Feng Bao waved his hand: "Go and find out quickly."

    Feng Bangning turned around and ran out. King Yu turned his head and looked at Feng Bao: "Big companion, Zhao"

    Feng Bao interrupted him and advised: "Your Majesty, Long Yu Bintian, please take care of yourself and don't be too sad."

    King Yu covered his face with his hands, and burst into tears with a sudden "Wow". All the guests quickly stood up and comforted King Yu to "take care of the dragon's body" and "don't hurt yourself", while the stewards were in a hurry and sent the maids to deliver  Purifying basin and silk handkerchief for King Yu to cleanse his face.

    There was a lot of busy work in the palace, and Feng Bangning came outside the gate to continue waiting for news. Half an hour later, the palace servant who went to the palace to inquire sent back a second message. Feng Bangning returned to the main hall again to report: "Abbot Zhao wants to establish eight masters."  It was dedicated to the late emperor, and His Highness's name was listed on it. Huo Tao and Gui E objected, and Zhang Cong suggested that the court should discuss the crime of the prince. Abbot Zhao agreed with the court discussion and established five principles for court discussion."

    Feng Bangning told the five principles of court discussion again. He was smart, had a good memory, and paid close attention to matters in the court. Although he was paraphrasing it at this moment, he did not miss the point of his original intention.

    King Yu was a little confused now: "The result of the court meeting is the final result? What does Abbot Zhao mean by this?"

    Feng Bao said nothing, and the guests also argued about this for a long time. They generally believed that this was an emergency move by Abbot Zhao. After the new emperor ascended the throne, Zhu would naturally criticize it, and there would no longer be any doubts about this.

    After this article, everyone in the palace waited until dusk for new news. Feng Bangning panted and said: "The villain went to the palace in person and learned the news outside Chengtian Gate. Huo Tao and Gui E were taken to Zuoshun.  Outside the door, for the crime of roaring at the court and beating colleagues, each person will be punished with thirty canes."

    Hearing this, King Yu shook his fist and said, "I am so happy!" The guests and stewards also praised him in unison, saying that Abbot Zhao was wise.

    Then Feng Bangning said with a smile: "Your Highness, there is good news. As a result of the court meeting, the prince was deposed and imprisoned in the cold palace!"
