my wife is mulan

Upon hearing the news, the soldiers standing guard nearby rushed over and blocked Tuoba Fan who was about to escape.

Tuoba Fan immediately explained: "Concubine Yi was already dead when the king came!"

At this time, Suwei Building on duty came over with a few people and asked, "What's going on?"

The palace servants immediately told the story of the incident, and Su Weizhu extended his hand to hold the handle of the knife, looked at Tuoba Fan and said coldly: "My lord, this matter is not trivial, please come with me! ,take away!"

Tuoba Fan had come to his senses at this time, felt that this time was unusual, he was afraid that he had fallen into a trap, he immediately said: "This is a trap, someone is going to frame this king! By the way, where is Prince Ren?" ? Where is Prince Ren?"

"My lord, the general only knows that you are suspected of murdering Concubine Yi, please go with the general, come and arrest him and put him in the dungeon to wait for His Majesty's verdict!"

Several soldiers rushed forward to restrain Tuoba Fan who wanted to defend himself, and found ropes to tie him up firmly.

Zong Ai carried the sleeping Tuoba Ren to Dou's bedroom, and Dou was drinking tea at this time.

"Queen Mother, the matter is done. Concubine Yi was killed by King Le'an in Jiaofang Palace. King Le'an was arrested by the guards on duty and patrolling. All the followers and guards he left outside the palace were taken away. Down!"

Dou didn't have much joy, she knew that this was just the beginning, she just knocked down a King Le'an, and there were still many objections.

"Zong Ai, how much can you control the guards in the palace?"

Zong Ai said: "The composition of the guards in the palace is too complicated, the servants can only control half of the duty tonight, the general of Sanlang Zhuang, Liu Guli and the general of Yulin Zhuang, Ba Baxihou, are slaves!"

Dou frowned, and asked: "Habayashi General Tuoba Shoule is on duty in the palace tonight?"

"It should be there!"

"Okay! Qiuyue, tell someone to call Tuoba Shoule over to see Ai's family!"

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

An hour later, a melodious bell sounded suddenly from the palace, and the whole city was alarmed. This was the bell that urgently summoned the ministers of civil and military affairs to enter the palace.

All civil and military ministers are very puzzled. It stands to reason that only the emperor can issue an order to ring the bell and gather all the ministers to enter the palace for discussion. Everyone knows that the emperor

He is leading troops to attack the country of Yan. Could it be that something happened in the palace?

Soon, all civil and military ministers of some importance came outside the palace gate, there was a large black crowd, probably hundreds of people, the officials and military generals were discussing with each other what happened, but no one knew.

After the palace gate was opened, the officials lined up to enter the palace according to their official positions, and they arrived at the Tai Chi Hall not long after.

The emperor dealt with military affairs in Yong'an Palace on a daily basis, but if there were festivals or grand ceremonies or every big or small court meeting, he would ask about politics in Taiji Hall, so all the officials came to Taiji Hall.

Some ministers also took the opportunity to ask the eunuchs who were standing guard outside the gate, but the eunuchs didn't know what to ask.

The officials in the Taiji Hall were discussing like a vegetable market, and suddenly said: "The Queen Mother has arrived——"

The hall suddenly became quiet, and the officials saw that the Empress Dowager Dou came in from the side in a grand dress, and Zong Ai behind her was holding the prince Ren and a group of eunuchs and maids in filial attire, and the officials immediately felt something was wrong.

Tuoba Jian did not set up a queen, and the concubines in the palace competed for favor, but no one could manage the inner palace in a legitimate way. After all, the name is not right, and now the emperor is away. If there is a big event, only the Queen Mother Bao is qualified to preside over the overall situation.

"The ministers are waiting to see the queen mother!" All the ministers knelt down and knelt down.

Mrs. Dou walked to the throne and looked at all the ministers raising their hands: "Everyone, please forgive me!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother!" The ministers shouted and got up and retreated to the sides.

Dou's tone was calm: "I summoned all the ministers to come tonight to announce two things: first, King Le'an entered the palace late at night to have a private meeting with Concubine Yi, and the two seemed to have a dispute. Concubine Yi was killed by King Le'an. King An has been controlled by the guards and arrested and imprisoned!"

"Ah—" The officials were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped. They all knew that there were too many dirty things in the royal family, but it was the first time they said that King Le'an had an affair with Concubine Yi.

Suddenly someone among the ministers shouted: "This is impossible, the minister is very clear about King Le'an's character, the prince is not such a person!"

Dou said angrily: "Presumptuous, the maids and eunuchs in Concubine Yi's Palace saw with their own eyes that King Le'an was captured by Su Wei on the spot, can this be fake?"

The gossip in the hearts of the ministers suddenly arose, one by one whispered to each other, and several ministers belonging to King Le'an's faction showed anxious expressions, what should we do?

Before the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs had time to digest the matter of King Le'an Tuoba Fan's private meeting with Concubine Yi, the Dou family ran out another heavy bomb: "Just eight hundred miles away, the secret report was sent by the horse, and His Majesty is attacking Yan Guolong. The city was betrayed by Zhu Xiuzhi, the general of Yunzhong Town, Zhu Xiuzhi led his troops to attack the palace, unfortunately, His Majesty passed away..."

The civil and military ministers were stunned, how could this be possible?

Chapter 550

After being stunned by the news of Tuobajian's death, someone among the officials finally came to his senses, knelt down on the ground and cried loudly: "Your Majesty..."

Afterwards, all civil and military ministers knelt on the ground in pain, but how many of them were really crying and how many were fake crying, probably only they knew.

Empress Dowager Dou and other ministers cried for a while, then cleared their throats and shouted: "Everyone, get up first, Your Majesty has passed away, the Ai family is as sad as all the ministers, but the country cannot live without a king for a day! Your Majesty has four sons, only Concubine Yi's son Ren is the oldest, the Ai family thinks that Prince Ren will inherit the throne, what do you think?"

The ministers of Tuoba Jian's direct line all shouted: "It should be so, the ministers are willing to treat the prince as the emperor!"

But soon there were people who objected, and the Minister of the Palace, Baba Kehou, stood up and said loudly: "Queen Mother, I think it is inappropriate! Prince Ren is too young to govern, and now we are surrounded by powerful enemies in the Great Wei. If you let Prince Ren Inheriting the great unification, how to lead the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty to resist the prying and attacks of the surrounding enemy countries?"

Some ministers raised objections to the words of Baba Kehou: "The lower officials do not agree with the words of the Shangshu in the palace. Who said that the prince cannot inherit the great rule when he is young? Is there no emperor who inherited the great rule at a young age in history? They still do it. Are you all right?"

Someone stood up to support: "That's right, although Prince Ren is young, as long as he ascends the throne as the emperor, I and other officials should do my best to assist him. Don't tell me we are all just poor people, so we can't help Prince Ren into a real man?" The emperor, or the minister in the palace himself doesn't recognize his talent?"

"Ahem!" Someone stood up with a cough, and all the ministers saw that it was Li Ji, Hongluqing, and he stood up and said, "I don't think that the meaning of the minister in the palace is that you are incapable of assisting Prince Ren. Now Concubine Yi is dead, Prince Ren has no mother, and is too young..."

Zong Ai interrupted Li Ji without waiting for him to finish speaking: "Li Hongzhen has worried too much. Isn't there still the Empress Dowager Bao? The affairs of the harem have won the respect of two generations of emperors, so is it possible that the queen mother will treat the prince benevolently?"

Some ministers stood up and said: "We are worried that the succession of the young prince Ren will be easily manipulated by powerful officials, which will be detrimental to the country and the Ming! For the sake of the great Wei Jiangshan community, I suggest that His Majesty's brother inherit the throne!"

Zong Ai laughed angrily: "What a joke, wouldn't His Majesty's brothers be manipulated by powerful ministers? A talented emperor can sit on the throne no matter how young he is, and a man without virtue or talent will only sit on the throne no matter how old he is. It’s all about anger and resentment! Look at the example of Tuoba Fan, sneaking into the inner palace in the middle of the night to have a private meeting with Concubine Yi, it’s simply audacious, if such a person inherits the throne, won’t the people all over the world laugh at the royal family?”

The officials who opposed it just now were so ashamed and indignant that they all retreated.

But there were still some people who stood up and objected, "That's all for King Le'an. Between the two princes, King Jianning and King Xinxing, there must be one who can inherit the throne, right?"

"Xinxing King? Hahaha... Do you have the nerve to inherit the throne? He spends all day robbing people's women and committing crimes. Which law of my Great Wei has he not violated? If it wasn't for the first emperor Keep it, he was beheaded a long time ago!" Zong Ai angrily reprimanded and belittled. ----Update fast, no anti-theft--

Tuoba Jun was accused of being useless and heinous by Zong Ai, and immediately became angry from embarrassment, and stood up and said angrily: "Zong Ai, I admit that I am not good at ordinary times and I am not qualified to inherit the throne, but you don't need to humiliate me like this, do you? This king has no deep hatred for you!"

Zong Ai immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "Oh, if the lord said so, the servants here will apologize to the lord!"

"Hmph!" Tuoba Jun snorted coldly, flicking his sleeves and walking back to his original position.

Someone jumped out and said, "Okay, even if

King Xinxing is not qualified to inherit the throne because of his daily words and deeds, but what about King Jianning?King Jianning has fought with Emperor Taiwu many times. He is humble and generous, and he is an excellent candidate to inherit the throne! "

The official mentioned King Jianning, and many eyes turned to Tuoba Chong. He had no choice but to stand up and clap his fists to the ministers and said: "As one of the heirs to the throne, as a party involved, it is better not to express any opinions in order to avoid suspicion!"

Immediately, an official stood up and said: "Your Majesty, why are you so humble? Now that His Majesty has passed away, you are the most suitable heir to the throne. I think you should stand up and take responsibility!"

"It's not good, it's not good. Although the emperor's brother passed away, it's not that he has no heirs. Why do you need brothers to die?" Tuoba Chong shook his head. He only said that it was wrong for brothers to die, but he didn't give up the idea of ​​inheriting the throne. will.

His supporters immediately said: "It is not without precedent in this dynasty that brothers end up with younger brothers. The first emperor's throne was obtained by younger brothers. Now that the first emperor has passed away, it is very appropriate for the prince to inherit the throne!"
