The disfigured prince's time-traveling concubine
Chapter 97 - Imperial Edict
The sharp dagger pierced the person's chest. Shen Yingjun's eyes gradually became blurred. The happy scenes of that year kept emerging in her mind. Two lines of tears slid down the corners of her eyes, and her beautiful eyes slowly closed.
There were lightning and thunder, and magpies scattered. When Shen Junyang and a group of imperial guards broke into the Longxing Palace, Shen Yingjun's body was already cold. Her hands were tightly holding Feng Moyu's arms, and no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't separate them. In a rage, she cut off Feng Moyu's arms and forcibly separated them.
In Yilan Palace, Feng Muyan stared at the porcelain bottle in her hand for a long time with her long hair loose, and finally she carefully put it into her arms.
On the second morning, Feng Muyan was sitting on a wide mahogany chair next to the dragon throne in the main hall, wearing the crown prince's court robes. His hair, which was usually loose, was tied up neatly behind his head. He looked very neat and tidy. However, he was fiddling with the blood jade in his hand with his head down. The ministers could not see his expression at all, and Shen Junyang was standing behind him with a sad face.
After all the ministers had arrived, Shen Junyang slightly concealed the sadness in his eyes, held the imperial edict in both hands, walked to the front of the dragon throne with heavy steps, and then raised the imperial edict above his head. All the ministers in the hall immediately knelt down and shouted, "Long live our emperor!"
"What I hold in my hand is the imperial edict left by the late emperor before his death. You must listen carefully to it." Shen Junyang said sadly.
"I will obey your orders!"
"The Emperor decrees, I have few children in my life, and now I only have my ninth son Feng Muyan and my tenth son Feng Jinhuan. I originally wanted to pass the throne to Crown Prince Muyan, but his mental retardation is damaged and he does not understand the country. Now I decree that he be crowned prince and appoint my tenth son Jinhuan as crown prince. He will inherit the throne a hundred years later, and my uncle-in-law Shen Junyang will be the regent. I decree this!" After speaking, Shen Junyang closed the imperial edict, stood with his hands behind his back, and glanced at the ministers below the hall.
"How can this be done..."
"If this is the case, is this still the Feng family's kingdom..."
Shen Junyang listened to the ministers' discussions with a smile. His gentle eyes became deep and complex. He imprinted the faces of those opponents in his mind one by one, and then said loudly: "If anyone has any objection, please stand up and speak out!" The hall, which was full of discussions just now, became quiet in an instant. No one dared to stand up and refute them in person. They all bowed their heads in agreement.
"Since all the ministers have no objection, the new emperor's coronation ceremony will be held in three days. Let's adjourn the court!" With a wave of his hand, all the ministers withdrew.
In the Longxing Palace, Shen Junyang was reading the memorials anxiously. That man was gone, so what did he need this overwhelming power for? What was the point of all this? Just as he was about to overturn the desk, he saw Fang Ming tremblingly peeking inside at the door. Shen Junyang shouted, "What are you doing sneaking around? Hurry up and get in!"
"Your servant greets Lord Shen!" Fang Ming ran over and knelt on his knees to kowtow.
"What's the matter?" Shen Junyang threw down the memorial in his hand, walked slowly to Fang Ming, and asked in a deep voice.
"Your Excellency, the Kingdom of East Chu has sent someone to deliver a document, expressing its intention to form an alliance with Nan Yue and hoping to have an everlasting friendship with our dynasty." After he finished speaking, he handed the document in his arms to Shen Junyang.
Shen Junyang opened the document and looked at it carefully, with a mocking smile on his face. A princess of this age is probably only worthy of that fool! The more Shen Junyang thought about it, the happier he felt. He threw the document in Fang Ming's face and said, "Send someone to report to the King of Dongchu and tell him that Nanyue has agreed to the marriage, and the whole country is waiting for Princess Chaoning's arrival."
"Yes, I'll do it right away!" Fang Ming ran out as if escaping.
Three days later, the seven-year-old Crown Prince Feng Jinhuan, with the support of his uncle, officially ascended the throne as emperor. He posthumously conferred the title of Empress Dowager Renxiao on his mother Shen, and granted his elder brother Feng Muyan the title of Prince Xiaoyao, with a permanent salary. He promoted his maternal uncle Shen Junyang to the position of Regent, who could sit on the dragon throne with him and listen to government affairs. He also issued a general amnesty, reduced taxes and corvée labor, and did not prohibit marriage among the people during the mourning period.
