The ugly girl's nirvana, the disabled prince's love

The emperor continued, "Twenty-four years ago, an incident occurred in Yinling Temple where the wrong prince was taken away. The prince Ren who is standing in front of all the ministers now is my eldest son, Yu Gongxian."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the court. The ministers were stunned by the sudden news, and for a while they were still in shock. They whispered to each other and discussed this shocking change in low voices.

While the ministers were still immersed in this shock, the emperor said solemnly:

"I have been feeling increasingly unwell these days, and it is difficult for me to handle the heavy workload of the government. This morning's court session will be my last day in court.

You have all witnessed the performance of the eldest prince and the sixth prince in quelling the rebellion at the border this time. The talent and courage they have demonstrated are enough to prove that they are capable of governing our dynasty well.

I have decided to pass the throne to my eldest son, Yu Gongxian, who will inherit the throne. I have also appointed my sixth son, Yu Gongyu, as regent.

I believe that under the care of the two princes, our dynasty will be peaceful and prosperous. The ceremony of enthroning the new emperor and conferring the title of empress will be held in four days. My dear ministers, please prepare for all matters."

When the ministers heard the emperor's words, they were stunned at first, but then they came to their senses. They knew that the emperor had made up his mind, and that Yu Gongxian and Yu Gongyu had indeed performed well in suppressing the rebellion at the border.

So they all bowed and saluted, saying: "Your Majesty is wise and wise, and we will definitely assist the new emperor and contribute our own strength to the prosperity of our dynasty."

The emperor nodded slightly, then his face darkened and he said sternly: "Prince Yu Gongchen has evil intentions and attempted to rebel and usurp the throne. His behavior is intolerable. I have decided to depose the prince and execute him on a chosen day to uphold the law.

As for the ministers who are on the side of the crown prince, I have sent people to investigate them carefully. If the ministers were forced to go along with the crown prince by threatening him with his family, I can forgive them for what they did.

However, those who voluntarily colluded with the prince and supported his rebellion will be severely punished and sentenced to severe punishment without mercy! "

The emperor's words made the atmosphere in the court even more tense. The ministers who had had contact with the prince were pale and worried, praying secretly that they would not be implicated.

The other ministers secretly rejoiced, and at the same time they became more determined to assist the new emperor and maintain the stability of the court.

Under the impact of this series of major news, the entire court fell into a brief silence, and then gradually the voices of ministers whispering about how to assist the new emperor to ascend the throne and deal with subsequent matters could be heard.

At this moment, Shen Qingyan from the Ministry of Revenue stepped forward and said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"Sure." The emperor didn't have a very good impression of Lord Shen. He heard that he had a close relationship with the prince before, but now he is the father-in-law of the emperor, so he gave him some face.

"Your Majesty, recently, a strange disease has been spreading among the people, and its symptoms are extremely horrifying. At first, the patients only have fever, chills, and fatigue, but in just one or two days, they will start coughing non-stop. Then, they will have difficulty breathing and their faces will turn purple. Many people have died before they can be treated.

Now this strange disease has spread to several states, and people everywhere have been infected, causing many deaths. The people are in a panic. I hope the emperor will make a holy judgment and come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible."

After Shen Huaiyan finished speaking, he carefully and secretly observed the emperor's expression. At this moment, he was thinking about making meritorious deeds to atone for his sins so that the emperor would no longer pursue the foolish things he had done before.

When the emperor heard this, his expression remained calm. He just looked at Yu Gongxian and said with a relaxed look: "Xian'er, come here."

Yu Gongxian responded, took a deep breath, and walked towards the emperor with heavy steps as if he was carrying a heavy burden.

When the emperor saw him approaching, he stood up, pulled Yu Gongxian over, and pressed him firmly to sit on the dragon throne that symbolized supreme power. His tone was kind but revealed unquestionable majesty:

"Xian'er, although the coronation ceremony will be held in four days, you have to deal with memorials and state affairs from now on."

With that, the emperor walked out of the court in a relaxed manner under the gaze of all the ministers. His back showed a sense of relief, as if he had entrusted the heavy burden of the world to him.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the court became somewhat subtle.

The ministers were stunned at first, then they knelt down in unison towards the emperor's departing figure, shouting in unison: "Farewell, Your Majesty!"

The voice echoed in the empty court, carrying with it a kind of respect for the old master and a hidden expectation for the new dynasty and the new emperor.

Then, everyone came to their senses and turned their eyes to Yu Gong Xian who was sitting on the dragon throne.

After a brief silence, the sound of fluttering robes could be heard in the court. The ministers all paid homage to Umiya Ken in unison, shouting, "Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"

The scene was solemn and dignified, as if a historical scroll was slowly unfolding before our eyes.

Yu Gong Xian sat on the dragon throne, looking at everything in front of him, feeling a little dizzy, as if everything was a dream.

He never imagined that he would be sitting in this once unattainable position so soon, and would soon have to face so many complicated state affairs.

After he came to his senses, he rubbed his temples gently to calm himself down, then whispered to Eunuch Defu to send someone to inform Shen Yiran to enter the palace.

After arranging this matter, Yu Gongxian cast his eyes towards the ministers in the hall and said solemnly:

"My dear ministers, this strange disease is now rampant among the people, causing many deaths and people are in panic. This matter cannot be delayed. Do you have any good suggestions?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Li stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I think the most urgent task is to send famous doctors from all over the country to the place where the epidemic broke out to conduct a detailed investigation of the condition so that the right medicine can be prescribed."

Another Lord Zhang also said: "Your Majesty, you need to order local governments to collect supplies as soon as possible, such as food, herbs, etc., to ensure the basic living needs of patients and local people, so that the people can feel at ease to fight the epidemic."

As the ministers nodded and expressed their opinions, Umiya Yu stood up and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, the Queen is well versed in medicine. It was the Queen who stopped the spread of the same strange disease when we were at the border. Otherwise, I'm afraid we would have been wiped out. With the current situation among the people, why not listen to her advice?"

When Yumiya Xian heard this, he thought exactly the same thing; the two brothers had the same idea.

He was about to nod his head in agreement, but heard the always old-fashioned Lord Wang say loudly: "Your Majesty, this is inappropriate! Since ancient times, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is the rule set by our ancestors. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"

When Yu Gongyu heard this, he immediately became angry. He frowned and asked in a bad tone: "Does Lord Wang have a way to cure this strange disease? If not, don't talk nonsense here. The lives of the people are at stake now, so why should we care about these old customs and habits!"

Other ministers also echoed, "Yes, Lord Wang, the most important thing now is to cure this strange disease. Otherwise, many people will die. We can't stick to the old ways and miss out on important things!"

Just as everyone was arguing, Shen Yiran walked in with the support of Yun'er and Banxia.
