Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1178

Ma Chuyi was promoted to the chief of the Dongyu Guard and was rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold and 100 pieces of silk to show the emperor's recognition of his loyalty and talent.

As for Tang Xinghe and other candidates, their efforts and talents were also rewarded.

Emperor Mingde not only bestowed upon them the honor of military scholars, but also assigned them to various departments of the court according to their respective expertise.

There were two champions, Tang Xinghe and Xing Mingyue, Wei Yuzhi and Wu Qicheng, and Zhao Zhui and Ma Chuyang.

This ranking is determined by various scores and performances in each game, as well as the selection by Emperor Mingde.

Yunqi Academy won the top three places in the imperial examination, which was simply astonishing, but also convincing.

They are indeed worthy!

Inside the hall, as the rewards were handed out one by one, the atmosphere of rewarding merit became increasingly warm and solemn.

The more heated the scene became, the more embarrassed Empress Dowager Jiqing, who was forced to kneel in the palace, looked.

She actually felt a little regretful at this moment. Knowing that she was the Phoenix Girl of Destiny, why did she bother to compete with her? How could she beat a person who was reborn?

Just when the Empress Dowager was lost in thought, Emperor Mingde summoned a very important person to the palace.

That person was the fourth prince, Prince Ling, Xiao Zhi. He was imposing and heroic.

He is very handsome, serious and taciturn.

He was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, which was embroidered with intricate and delicate cloud and dragon patterns. His steps were steady and powerful, and he knelt on one leg as he came up, "I am lucky to have fulfilled your mission!"

That's right, this "Clear Dust" plan was also a critical test for Prince Ling. His Royal Highness Prince Ling led his troops to confront Hong Yang at Beisheng Gate, and successfully captured Hong Yang at a cost of almost no bloodshed.

Emperor Mingde said slowly, "I will announce to the world that I will appoint Prince Ling as the Crown Prince. This decision is based on Prince Ling's virtue and talent, as well as his loyalty and contribution to the country. Prince Ling will shoulder the heavy responsibility of inheriting the throne, govern the world with benevolence, and benefit all people."

The Empress Dowager's ears were buzzing. Crown Prince! Emperor Mingde wanted to make Prince Ling Xiao Zhi the Crown Prince!

She recalled Shi Anrou saying, "Later, Empress Dowager Huizheng deposed Emperor Yuqing and invited Prince Ling back from his fiefdom to become the emperor..."

The Queen Mother spat a mouthful of blood onto her robe.

Shi Anxia is so cruel. He has directly advanced the course of history by so many years!

Prince Ling Xiao Zhi was also a little surprised for a moment. He didn't expect that he would be so successful and even be named the crown prince.

He knelt down again in a hurry to express his gratitude. "I will study the ways of governing a country with a rigorous attitude, humbly seek advice from the wise officials in the court, and work diligently to strive for excellence in government affairs. I will also always bear in mind the heart of benevolence and put the people first, so that the fortunes of the Northern Wing will prosper and the people will live a prosperous and healthy life. I am willing to defend the glory of the Northern Wing with my life, and live up to the grace of my father and the people."

Emperor Mingde nodded with satisfaction. Among these sons, only this one was good looking. That Pighead Nine... was sold but still helped count the silver.

He said, "The Ministry of Rites is fully responsible for the preparation of the enthronement ceremony... Where is the Minister of Rites?"

"Chen is here!"

Emperor Mingde said, "I order you to immediately prepare for the enthronement ceremony. You must strive for perfection. You must not only reflect the royal style, but also take into account the spirit of frugality. You must not waste money and lose the support of the people. While the envoys from all over the world are in the North Wing, let's join in the grand event and let the world know that the North Wing is fair in establishing the crown prince and demonstrate the style of a great country."

"I obey!"

The new issue of "Yijing Weekly" is extremely rich in content. The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is confirmed, the list of the martial arts examination is released, and most importantly... the Empress Dowager was given poisoned wine and died.
