The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

"Your Majesty, I cannot bear to leave you."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty extended his hand, and Emperor Wenzong of Tang Dynasty mustered up the courage to shake it.

"I am already exhausted and can no longer come. The world will be handed over to the new emperor to rule. You all must assist him well."

"I understand. I will definitely assist the new emperor well."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty smiled with satisfaction, and wrinkles appeared on his face.

"It's a pity that such a loyal minister like you didn't leave behind any descendants."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty had an idea in his mind, but he felt it was a bit presumptuous.

"Yiyi, if you have another son in the future, can you adopt him under your father's name? This will ensure that his lineage continues."

Emperor Wenzong of Tang was shocked. He did not expect that the emperor would have such an idea.

"Your Majesty, I am fine. I only have my life to worry about..."

Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty interrupted him and said, "You are very precious. The Censorate has always been the emperor's close ministers, and is responsible for supervising all officials and royal relatives. I will not allow you to despise your life like this. You must live well for me. The new emperor still needs your assistance and supervision."

Emperor Wenzong of Tang was speechless for a moment.

Shen Jiarou knelt down and said to Emperor Yuan Shun: "Father, before the child was born, I had already discussed with the Prince Consort and decided to let Xiaowu take Daddy's surname to continue the Tang family's bloodline."

The eyes of Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty and Emperor Wenzong of Tang Dynasty lit up at the same time, and Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty spoke out excitedly.

"really?"

"Ah."

"Does the Jiang family agree?"

Jiang Ruofan spoke up at this time: "Father, my father, mother and grandmother all agree. This is also what we discussed privately. I already have three sons and one daughter, and now I have two sons and one daughter. It's no problem to give my father-in-law a child to inherit the family line."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty clapped his hands in satisfaction and said, "Great, great, this is great. They are all sensible and considerate children. Jiang Shengping is also great. Thank your father for me."

"I will obey your order and pass on your message."

When Emperor Yuan Shun had almost finished explaining everything to his ministers, he looked solemnly at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Shen Jiarou.

"Prince, Yi Yi, come here."

The brother and sister knelt in front of him, and Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked at his legitimate son and daughter and smiled with satisfaction.

"Prince, I want your sister Princess Yongkang to assist you and relieve some of the pressure. What do you think?" He also wanted to hear his son's opinion.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glanced at Shen Jiarou. He believed that his father had his own intentions.

"I will obey your father in everything."

"In theory, Yiyi is the legitimate daughter. When you ascend the throne, she should be named the eldest princess. Your father has issued this decree for you, naming her the regent princess. She can help you handle state affairs. As for the affairs of the harem, the Crown Princess is not in good health. If Yiyi has time, she can manage it together with your mother."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understood his father's intention: "Yes."

Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty looked at the person who had followed him the longest and said, "Li Jiang, announce the decree."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Jiang took out the first imperial edict and read it out: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that if I pass away, my legitimate son, the Crown Prince, will succeed me as the new emperor and govern the country. I decree this!"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince respectfully accepted the order: "I obey your order and thank you for your grace."

As the first minister to be summoned, Grand Tutor Fu was the first to kneel down respectfully and said, "Welcome to the new emperor. Long live the emperor."

Everyone followed suit and knelt down, "Welcome to the new emperor. Long live the emperor."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty nodded to the Crown Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stood up and stood in front of everyone.

"Everyone is safe!"

Everyone expressed their gratitude: "Thank you, Lord."

Li Jiang glanced at Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty, and seeing him nod, he immediately began to read the second imperial edict.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that if I pass away, my legitimate daughter, Princess Yongkang, will assist the new Emperor and be appointed Princess Regent. I decree this!"

When she heard the imperial edict being read out, Shen Jiarou was still deeply shocked. She looked up at Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty, and seeing him smile and nod, she stood up and took the edict with both hands.

"Your son obeys your order. Thank you for your grace."

The new emperor Ji Chenyu helped his sister up: "Fourth sister, get up."

"Thank you, brother." At this moment he was no longer the crown prince, but a true emperor, so she had to call him brother.

Seeing the brother and sister getting along harmoniously, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty nodded with satisfaction and then gave instructions to everyone.

"Meet the Princess Regent."

Li Jiang glanced at the elderly Master Fu, and he understood, lifted up his official robe and knelt down.

"Your Highness pays respect to the Princess Regent. May the Princess Regent live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Everyone knelt and bowed: "Your Highness pays respect to the Regent Princess. May the Regent Princess live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Shen Jiarou, who was standing next to Ji Chenyu, looked at everyone.

"Excuse me!"

"Thank you, Princess Regent."

When they heard the title of Regent Princess coming from inside, the eldest princess and Su Jiahe were stunned.

"The Regent Princess?" The eldest princess was puzzled. Who was the Regent Princess? Could it be the fourth princess?

Among the four of them, the most powerful and capable one is the Fourth Princess, that must be her.

The palace servants were shocked to see the eldest princess and the Su family of four, and someone hurriedly walked to the door of the bedroom.

"Your Majesty, the eldest princess and her family of four have arrived at the palace gate."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty was stunned and gave orders quickly.

"Xuan."

Li Jiang hurriedly shouted, "Princess Xuan and her family of four are here to see you!"

The eldest princess and Su Jiahe were completely stunned. They had just walked in and were summoned so quickly.

The family of four immediately walked into the bedroom respectfully. Seeing their eldest daughter whom they had not seen for many days, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty extended his hand lovingly to her.

"Princess, come here, let your father take a look at you."

The eldest princess walked up to Emperor Yuan Shun and knelt down: "Father, I'm sorry, I'm late."

"Not too late, not too late, just right, dear child, don't cry. Father can see you one last time, which is also the fulfillment of his wish."

The eldest princess cried so hard that she couldn't bear to see her father leave. If she did that, she would really be without a father.

"Silly child, why are you crying? All good things must come to an end. Old people pass away and new people are born. The same is true for everything in the world. Don't be sad. Cherish the last bit of our father-daughter relationship." His time is approaching and he can't wait any longer.

The eldest princess nodded painfully: "Yes, father, you say, I am listening."

"Your mother has not been around since you were young, and you have lacked maternal love. Fortunately, your royal grandmother loves you, which can be considered as another kind of compensation. When your father is gone in the future, you must live a good life with your husband, and it is better than anything else for your family to live a good life." This is his only expectation as a father for his eldest daughter. This daughter is not particularly smart, but fortunately, she is wise and foolish. With the support and care of the new emperor and the youngest daughter, her future life will not be too bad.

When a man is about to die, his words are kind. The eldest princess cried silently.

"Yes, I will follow your father's instructions."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty nodded with satisfaction, and finally looked at his elderly mother and extended his hand to her.

"Mother, I am an unfilial son and cannot accompany you any longer. I must go first."

The Queen Mother endured the pain and said, "Emperor, go with peace of mind."

Her tears kept falling like pearls. Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty wanted to reach out his hand to wipe away his mother's tears for the last time, but his hand finally fell down and her eyes closed tightly.

The queen looked at her husband lying in her arms and finally couldn't help crying.

"Your Majesty!" Her emperor, her husband!

Li Jiang watched his master die with his eyes closed, and finally shed tears as he knelt down to bid farewell.

"The Emperor passed away!"

The master he had served all his life left him forever!
