The Village Doctress Chapter 695: Goodbye Princess Liwu
Naturally, no one heard what the old emperor, the doctor Mu and the doctor boy said, even if they all listened with pointed ears.
Because Lin He and Lin Ju made small movements outside from time to time, those who guarded outside the old emperor's bedroom were often distracted, and Lin Fufu and the old emperor deliberately suppressed their voices when talking to the old emperor. Gao Qiang also couldn't hear what was said inside.
Seeing those people bowing their heads like quails one by one, Huangfu Ling cursed angrily: "What use are you trash? Take them all out and chop them up!"
Fortunately, a doorman who was with him hurriedly said good things to stop him. After all, the old emperor was dead, let alone killing him.
"Now that the emperor's father is going to be buried, there is not even a single word left behind, brother, what do you think should be done now?" Huangfu Ting's eyes flashed, and he looked at Huangfu Ling.
Although Huangfu Ling also has ambitions, he is still a man of good manners, and his personality is irritable and straightforward. He frowned when he heard this, "You ask this king, who is this king going to ask?"
Huangfuling snorted coldly in his heart, scolding Huangfuling for being an idiot.
But the more stupid Huangfuling is, the happier he is.
"Then... let's go to the Ministry of Rites to organize the funeral of the emperor first, right?" Huangfu Ting's eyes flashed with a calculating light, and then disappeared.
Huangfuling objected, "That won't work! The new emperor's candidate has not yet been determined, how can the father be buried in the earth? Let's put him in the ice coffin for a few days before we talk about it. Decide on the new emperor first!"
He thinks he is the leader, and many of the officials in Beirong are from his foreign faction, and he has the greatest chance of becoming a great treasure.
But Huangfu Ting would not do what he wanted at all, and the other adult princes believed that they would not do what he wanted either, so they started arguing in front of the old emperor's corpse in the old emperor's bedroom.
But Huangfu Ling's family is indeed the most powerful among the several adult princes, apart from Huangfu Jin, Prince Jin, he also has the most powerful army in charge, so they can only take advantage of their lip service.
But even though Huangfu Ling is a big supporter, he also knows that two fists are no match for four hands, not to mention that there are more than a dozen brothers and uncles who are watching him eagerly waiting to beat him up.
"Brother Dahuang, I'm afraid you have forgotten the fifth brother? He is now rushing all the way to the imperial city under the banner of King Qin. In his eyes, we brothers are all grown-ups." It's a traitor. What do you think we should do?" At this time, the fourth prince suddenly sneered.
Then everyone stopped, and their eyes became serious.
"There is still a force that is only loyal to the father. Now that the father has died suddenly, I don't know how they will react when they find out..." At this time, the sixth prince said again.
The expressions on everyone's faces became more dignified, but then they started to shout again.
There was a side branch brother of the old emperor, King Han couldn't hold back any longer, and ordered his army to attack the city while they were arguing.
There was a scuffle in Beirong imperial city at night, and those people who were close to the palace were woken up in the middle of the night by the screams of beating and killing.
It's a pity that the gun shot the first bird. Although the Hanjun King was brave, he was very straightforward, but he was suppressed and beaten by others as soon as he showed his head. In half an hour, his soldiers were defeated. Han The county king himself was shot and killed by the rebels.
Now, no one dares to act rashly anymore, and they just stalemate like that.
But at this time, Lin Fufu's master and servant had already arrived at Princess Liwu's princess mansion.
Princess Liwu already has a son-in-law, her son-in-law's background is not obvious, he is just a fourth-rank official in Beirong, but the son-in-law is her favorite, and she has lived a very happy life in the past few years.
Now, she has given birth to two children, the eldest son is three years old this year, and the eldest daughter is one year old.
When Lin Fufu's master and servant came to her house, Princess Liwu hadn't gone to bed because of the situation in the imperial city.
The son-in-law immediately stood in front of Princess Liwu, watching Lin Fufu and the four masters and servants warily.
The four masters and servants of Lin Fufu have already taken off their invisibility cloaks. Lin Fufu is wearing Beirong's women's clothing at the moment.
As for Lin Lan and the others, she didn't know each other. After all, she didn't know all of Huangfujin's people.
"Who are you?" Li Wu's son-in-law naturally didn't know Lin Fufu, but the more Li Wu looked at Lin Fufu, the more familiar he became. Suddenly she remembered that she had seen this in the study of her fifth younger brother Huangfujin. Portrait of a woman!
"You are... Princess Jiahe of the Great Wei Dynasty?" Princess Liwu exclaimed with happiness in her heart.
"Great Wei's Princess Jiahe? Then why did you come to our house in the middle of the night?" Li Wu's son-in-law was also startled, and looked at Lin Fufu's master and servant carefully, only to realize that their expressions were hurried and serious, and even brought Look embarrassed.
"But what happened to my brother Jin?" Of course Princess Liwu was most concerned about Huangfu Jin, and immediately looked at Lin Fufu nervously.
Lin Fufu shook his head, looked at her and said, "It's not that something happened to Huangfu Jin, but the funeral of His Majesty Beirong!"
"What? Father, he...has a funeral?" Princess Liwu's body softened. Although she didn't have much affection for that cold-hearted father, after all, it was her father, and his blood was thicker than that of his father. water.
"How do you know?" The son-in-law looked at Lin Fufu warily. He was a courtier of Beirong, and he was not familiar with Lin Fufu.
"Our girl escaped from His Majesty's bedroom. Before His Majesty died, His Majesty handed over important things to our girl, saying that she would bring the things to find Princess Liwu!" Lin Lan went forward to report at this time. reports.
Her fluent Beirong dialect let Li Wu know that she must have been placed by Lin Fujin's side to protect her, so her expression softened a lot.
"Father's funeral is a matter of time. This palace has already made preparations, but I didn't expect that father would hand over important things to you before he died!" Princess Liwu said because of Huangfujin's relationship. , I still respect Gospel Lin very much, and use honorific titles.
Lin Fufu didn't drag his feet, and immediately took out the letter of succession from his arms and handed it to Princess Liwu, "This is from His Majesty the Emperor of Beirong, entrusted by the Palace to His Royal Highness Princess Liwu, you take it !”
At this time, Li Wu's expression became serious, and she and her son-in-law lifted up their clothes and knelt down. Gospel, "Do you know what is written here?"
"I don't know." Lin Fufu spat out two words.
"Since it was entrusted by His Majesty at the end of his life, according to my ministers, it is very likely that it is a decree to pass on the position!"
I never expected that His Majesty the Emperor would entrust such an important matter to his wife when he was dying.
After all, she is just an unfavored princess...
The imperial decree was sealed with vermilion wax, Princess Liwu naturally would not want to peek at the contents, but her face was ugly.
If it is true that the emperor is passed on, and it is not known who will be established as the new emperor, then this is a hot potato!
"Princess Jiahe..."
"Reporting to Her Royal Highness, our girl is now Her Royal Highness Princess Tiangui of the Great Wei Dynasty!" Lin Lan reported neither humble nor overbearing.
Princess Liwu was stunned for a moment, but immediately changed her words: "His Royal Highness Tiangui Dachang Princess, when you were in the royal father's bedroom, can you hear which brother the royal father prefers to be the new emperor?"
Lin Fufu had been thinking about this question, but in the end he couldn't figure out whether the old emperor of Beirong made Huangfu Jin the emperor.
"Although I have talked a lot with His Majesty Bei Rong, I haven't heard from his words which prince or prince he prefers to be the new emperor!" Lin Fufu said honestly.
Princess Liwu's expression became more solemn, and she subconsciously looked at the imperial edict in her hand.
"However, I think that His Majesty the Emperor Beirong is aware of the relationship between Princess Liwu and Huangfu Jin. Since he entrusted this palace to give this to the princess at the end of his life, there must be no harm to Huangfu Jin." Lin Fufu thought After thinking about it, he said to her.
"You don't understand that royal father of this palace, he has deep thoughts, who knows if he took advantage of the feelings of the fifth emperor Jin of this palace, and deliberately handed this over to this palace?" Princess Liwu thought of that The emperor's scheming could not help but sneer.
After all, at this time her brothers and uncles are all approaching the city, he dare not trust anyone, it is indeed the safest choice to choose her.
Because, she also hoped in her heart that the imperial order would be passed on to Emperor Jin, and she would also think that her father preferred Emperor Jin for her father's choice of her. She will do her best to do this.
Lin Fufu glanced at her and said: "Even if he uses the princess, in order for Beirong to survive this crisis, you should do as His Majesty Beirong wants!"
"Then what if it's not Emperor Jin?" Princess Liwu stared at the bright yellow imperial decree in her hand with deep eyes, as if she wanted to have a pair of sharp eyes to see to whom it was written.
"It doesn't matter whether it's true or not. The most urgent thing is to stabilize things. When I first came here, the city was already in chaos." Lin Fufu said calmly.
Princess Li Wu's eyes flashed, and she said coldly: "It's okay, those people are not stupid, after killing a few early birds, no one will act rashly again."
Lin Fufu sneered when he heard the words, "Not necessarily. After all, they all know the news of Huangfu Jin's entry into King Jingqin. There is not much time left for them. When Huangfu Jin gets closer and closer to the imperial city, those people will unite first To deal with him, it is better to read out His Majesty's edict first, so as to buy time for Huangfu Jin."
"Yes! What you said is right!" Princess Liwu wanted to understand what Lin Fufu said, and immediately looked at the son-in-law, "Husband, we have to make preparations and enter the palace at dawn!"
The son-in-law obviously has the trust of Princess Liwu, and he is also very loyal to Princess Liwu, so he nodded immediately, "I'll go prepare now!"
"His Royal Highness Princess Tiangui has worked hard for you. You have been involved in our Beirong's political affairs, and you have troubled you to bring your father's imperial decree. I don't even know how to thank you!" Princess Liwu After handing over the imperial decree to the old nun behind her, she supported Lin Fufu's arms with both hands, with gratitude in her eyes.
Lin Fufu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It's fate to encounter such a thing. Your Highness, there is no need to thank you. Besides, if the Beirong is in chaos, we will not be able to please the Great Wei."
Lin Fufu made her feel at ease.
Li Wu naturally understood what she meant, and after saying a few more words, she arranged for Lin Fufu's master and servant to rest.
"Girl, do you know what Princess Liwu will do next?" Lin Ju asked impatiently as she lay on Lin Fufu's couch.
In the darkness, Lin Fufu opened his eyes and replied calmly: "After the funeral of Emperor Beirong, those princes and princes will definitely invite all the officials to go to court. At that time, Princess Liwu will announce the old emperor with a letter of succession. Candidates for succession."
"Then... Could it be the master?" Lin Ju was most concerned about this question, and Lin Lan and Lin He who were lying on the couch beside the bed also pricked up their ears.
Lin Fufu chuckled, "Whether it is your master or not is not important anymore. As long as the edict is announced, even if the new emperor of Beirong is someone else, your master's entry into Jingqin will be justified. Otherwise, the old emperor It's already dead, what name does he still use as King Qin?"
"But our master is such a character, if he hadn't become a great treasure, it would be too wronged!" Lin Ju defended her master's injustice.
Lin Fufu was not worried about this, she was thinking that if it was really not Huangfujin, then the new emperor of Beirong would naturally be more afraid of Huangfujin than the previous emperor.
Even if Huangfu Jin has settled the mess for him now, when the situation improves, it will be natural to kill the donkey.
Thinking about it this way, Huangfu Jin won the emperor's position once and for all.
I hope the old emperor will not let her down!
A sleepless night.
Princess Liwu and his wife took the old emperor's succession letter and got on the carriage to the Beirong Palace.
The princes and princes guarding the old emperor's bedroom are still arguing.
Although the news of the old emperor's funeral has spread overnight, the officials will rush to the palace to discuss important matters as soon as possible.
It's inconvenient for Lin Fufu to enter the palace as an outsider, but he didn't dare to say goodbye to Liwu's mansion. After all, the fox-faced man's subordinates have mixed in the city to inquire about their four masters and servants.
Although he was hiding in Princess Liwu's mansion, the news from outside came one after another. Lin Fufu learned that Huangfu Jin's army would reach the imperial city in thirty miles.
Lin Fufu immediately ordered Lin He and Lin Ju, "You two go out of the city immediately, and tell your master all the news in the imperial city in detail!"
Because of the severe martial law in the imperial city, not even a bird can fly out, so Lin He Linju can only be let out of the city.
What Lin Fufu thought was that as long as Lin He and Lin Ju changed their costumes a little, the people on the side of the fox-faced man would not be able to recognize them, so he was relieved.
Lin He and Lin Ju took the order to leave, but they didn't expect that someone had already been watching Princess Liwu's mansion closely.
After Lin He, Lin Ju came out of Princess Liwu's mansion, the fox-faced man received the news that he was sitting in his mansion holding fragrant tea, and after hearing the words, he put down the tea cup slowly, She hooked her lips with a smile that was not a smile, and said a few words lightly, "Let's go to Princess Liwu's mansion!"
