Above the main hall, a domineering aura filled the air. Ye Qinghan forcefully faced the eldest disciple of the Realm Lord. His voice was hoarse and dignified, not allowing any blasphemy.
"With the imperial edict in my hand and the dragon seal bestowed by the emperor!"
Shua!
Ye Qinghan tossed the imperial edict into the air. The Laws engraved on the edict were exactly the Laws that the Emperor had comprehended. The words on the edict were enough to prove that it was the will that the Emperor had written when he was awake!
Most importantly, Ye Qinghan took out the dragon seal that represented the emperor. Only with the dragon seal could one be the emperor. Without the dragon seal, one wasn't the legitimate emperor!
At this moment, the entire hall was in an uproar. The Seventh Prince had lost his chance!
Muyun Feng frowned. He couldn't imagine why the late emperor would be so foolish as to give the dragon seal to an outsider! How much trust did he have to have in order to do this?
The Seventh Prince howled unwillingly and angrily roared, "Zuo Feng, you treacherous and treacherous official. How dare you steal imperial father's dragon seal and forge an imperial edict. Men! Men, take this treacherous official down! I will reward you handsomely! "
Ye Qinghan's lips curled into a smile. He looked at the Seventh Prince like he was looking at an idiot.
"The dragon seal is in the emperor's sea of consciousness. Without his approval, who can take it? Seventh Prince, are you trying to defy the late emperor's edict? "Ye Qinghan retorted.
At this moment, Muyun Feng couldn't do anything. An imperial edict and a dragon seal were legitimate!
Ye Qinghan was incomparably cold. He turned around and stared at the officials. He said in a deep voice, "Everyone knows that I have a grudge with the Ninth Prince. If the imperial edict was forged, I could have forged it to allow the eighteenth prince to ascend the throne. After all, I still have some personal feelings for him. However, the emperor has decreed that the Ninth Prince will be the crown prince. When the emperor is ill and can no longer handle state affairs, the crown prince will ascend the throne! With the dragon seal and imperial edict as proof, anyone who dares to disobey will be disrespectful to the late emperor! "
"We obey the late emperor's edict! We welcome the Ninth Prince's ascension to the throne! "
The people under the control of the Left Marshal's Mansion were the first to submit, and then most of the ministers supported the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince felt like he was in heaven for a moment, then in hell for a moment. His heart was already numb, and he thought that he was dreaming. He stood there in a daze for a long time before his body moved with excitement. He looked gratefully at Ye Qinghan.
"Thank you, Marshal Zuo, for your loyalty. You disregarded our past enmity and delivered Imperial Father's will. This humble prince is moved to tears. I will definitely not disappoint Imperial Father's great trust and take the world as my responsibility! I won't disappoint Mister's assistance. I will definitely put the loyal officials in important positions, and will definitely not be used by treacherous officials! "The Ninth Prince bowed deeply and said in a serious tone.
For the Ninth Prince to be so courteous, Zhi Ge was very satisfied. He thought to himself, "Perhaps the late Emperor's decree was correct!"
"Your Majesty, I dare not accept such a great gift. You are now His Majesty! Please wear the dragon robe and ascend to the throne! "Ye Qinghan waved his hand and brought over a dragon robe. Clearly, he was already prepared!
"Wait! Let's put aside the matter of ascension for now. Today, we must investigate the death of Marshal Yun! "Snow Border Army's Xue Ling roared in a deep voice.
Ye Qinghan was stunned. Clearly, this was not part of the plan. At least, it was not supposed to happen now. Marshal Yun still had a very important mission to complete. He must have the support of the imperial family's backbone in order for the Ninth Prince to ascend to the throne!
"Marshal Yun has turned into the Dao? Wasn't he still fine before I left? What exactly happened? Tell me! "Ye Qinghan furiously asked.
This anger was definitely true anger because someone had ruined his plan!
Ye Qinghan's anger caused the entire palace to tremble. Zhi Ge and Mu Yunfeng frowned because they felt the pressure! It was as if the Realm Master was angry. This kind of supreme dignity was not something that could be cultivated overnight.
"A few days ago, someone who looked exactly like you entered Marshal Yun's residence with the Imperial Marshal Token. However, after leaving, Marshal Yun died tragically in his room. When that person went to the Left Marshal's residence with the Imperial Marshal Token, the Left Marshal's residence realized it was fake and a great battle broke out. Only then did Marshal Yun's residence discover Marshal Yun's death." Jue Wuxin said in a deep voice.
"A person can be fake, I naturally believe that. However, how can the Marshal's Seal be fake? I personally guarded Marshal Yun's side and saw the Marshal's Seal with my own eyes! Explain to me, how did the Marshal's Seal appear in someone else's hands? "Xue Ling angrily questioned.
"A few days ago, I entered Snow Country's God Realm from the True Spirit Realm through the Border River. The Border River's Army Commander Jun Liu can testify for me! As for the Marshal's Seal, it has always been with me. Take a look, is this the Marshal's Seal you saw? "
Ye Qinghan frowned and directly threw the Marshal's Seal to Xue Ling.
Xue Ling took the Marshal's Seal and hurriedly retreated. His eyes were full of anger and unwillingness. He roared, "I was deceived! It was my mistake that caused Sir's death! Ah — — — "
Xue Ling roared at the sky. He was extremely ashamed. He knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. He wailed, "Marshal Yun, it was my fault! I actually let a fake Marshal Zuo get close to you! That's why you died so miserably! I deserve to die! "
With that, Xue Ling pulled out his sword and was about to commit suicide.
Ye Qinghan looked at Xue Ling's pained expression. He knew the feelings between the two, and also knew Jue Wuxin's feelings for Marshal Yun. His eyes were cold, but he did not stop him.
Jue Wuxin stepped forward and pressed down on Xue Ling's large hand. He said in a low voice, "If you blame yourself and commit suicide now, how can you face Marshal Yun? Wake up. Finding the real culprit is the only way to answer to Marshal Yun's soul in heaven! "
"The dead are gone. Xue Ling, I can understand the feelings between you and Marshal Yun. Since this matter involves me, I will naturally give you an explanation! I will also give Marshal Yun an explanation, and give the world an explanation! "Ye Qinghan said in a low voice.
Xue Ling's face was full of regret. He said guiltily, "Thank you for your understanding, Marshal Zuo. I was too impulsive and almost fell for the villain's trick!"
"No matter. When the Ninth Prince ascends the throne, Marshal Yun's funeral will definitely be grand. I'm sure His Majesty will also support it!" Ye Qinghan said in a low voice.
At this time, Zhi Ge and Muyun Feng became spectators. Muyun Feng did not dare to risk universal condemnation and forcefully kill Ye Qinghan to protect the Seventh Prince as Emperor. He could only plan for the long term.
Ye Qinghan handed the dragon robe to the Ninth Prince. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please bless the dragon robe, ascend the throne, and order a thorough investigation of Marshal Yun's death!"
The Ninth Prince's hands trembled as he took the dragon robe. He entered the side hall and put it on. His face was red, but he pretended to be sad. He said in a hoarse voice, "Fifth Imperial Uncle has made great contributions to the empire. Until now, only one daughter has been guarding Fifth Imperial Aunt's tomb in the ancestral grounds. Now that Fifth Imperial Uncle has died in Sheng City, I am heartbroken. I will give Fifth Imperial Uncle's daughter, Xue Yue, the title of Princess Tianjiao! Today, I order that Marshal Zuo will be the inspector to investigate the truth and give Fifth Imperial Uncle justice! "
"What if this matter involves the Divine Sect?" Ye Qinghan asked indifferently.
