Chapter 655 After the closure
The second princess Ji Fengwu ascended the throne smoothly without any opposition.
After he ascended the throne, he issued an imperial decree to enthrone Zhangsun Wuyou, the Marquis of Zhenguo, as the queen.
When this move was made, all the ministers were shocked and opposed it.
The Second Princess clearly already has a husband, who is the legitimate son of the Duke of Qin. Logically, the position of Queen should be conferred upon him. How could another man be conferred the title?
And who is Changsun Wuyou?
He is the legitimate husband of the deposed princess Ji Xuan!
Although the two have not yet married, Zhangsun Wuyou is definitely the deposed crown princess and the new emperor's brother-in-law.
However, the deposed princess had died, and no one dared to take over Changsun Wuyou's marriage, making it difficult for her to get married.
But the new emperor cannot marry his brother-in-law for this reason; it would not sound good if it got out.
How dignified!
No way! No way!
The ministers objected repeatedly.
However, Ji Fengwu now holds great power and is determined to suppress Prince Rui. She refuses to listen to the advice of court officials and insists on being crowned queen.
At the Marquis Zhenguo's Mansion, some were happy while others were worried when they learned that the new emperor had issued an edict to confer a title on the queen.
Changsun Wuyou was struck by lightning as if from the blue sky, and his face turned pale.
"How could this be?"
"Mother...Mother, I...I don't want to enter the palace..."
Changsun Lingyun sighed, his face filled with worry as he thought of Ji Fengwu who had taken over the position.
"Mother never wanted you to enter the palace. Ji Fengwu is not a good person at all. How can anyone taught by that old fellow Bo Luan be a kind person?"
"This is evident from recent events."
But what can we do now?
"Mother, are we just going to let her be like this?"
Changsun Wuyou had tears in her eyes and was unwilling to give in.
Zhang Sun Lingyun shook his head: "Now that the Second Princess has ascended the throne, she has the support of many court officials. She has done nothing wrong and even made contributions in suppressing the rebellion. Without sufficient reasons, it is impossible to overthrow her."
"Is it not possible for King Beichen as well? Didn't you say that King Beichen has the right to depose the emperor..."
"That was when the emperor acted unkindly and shook the foundation of the country."
Changsun Lingyun said in a heavy tone, as if helpless: "Prince Beichen is from another family. Without the edict left by Empress Jingzong, the royal family would not allow her to interfere in matters concerning the throne."
"If the new emperor has not committed an unforgivable mistake, Prince Beichen has no right to dismiss her." Changsun Wuyou opened his mouth: "Then Prince Rui..."
"King Rui..."
Speaking of Prince Rui, Ji Huashang, Changsun Lingyun admired her very much, but now thinking about her fate...
"What a pity! If King Rui had won this battle and his body was not injured, he might have had a chance to fight."
Changsun Wuyou stood there in a daze, his face pale and tears welling up in his eyes.
"Why……"
Is fate so unfair?
First the princess was deposed and then executed.
The current Prince Rui was defeated in the battlefield, broke an arm, and missed the throne.
Why does every woman who crosses paths with him become so unhappy?
Could it be that he was the one who defeated him?
It’s not that people talk behind his back, but he never takes it seriously.
Now even Prince Rui has suffered greatly from him, which makes Changsun Wuyou unable to help but suspect that he is really a jinx and anyone who has anything to do with him will be in trouble.
No matter how sad Changsun Wuyou was, the decree to make her queen had already been issued.
When Prince Rui, who was far away at the border, heard the news, he vomited blood immediately. He impulsively wanted to return to the capital, but was stopped by his subordinates, who believed that returning to the capital without an imperial edict was tantamount to treason. The new emperor was worried that he could not find any evidence against Prince Rui, so going back at this time would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.
The situation was unfavorable, and under the persuasion of everyone, King Rui vented his anger on the battlefield.
On the other side, in the capital city, the palace was decorated with lights and full of joy.
Many people in the harem were envious, jealous and resentful, especially Xue Mingzhen, the original prince of the Second Princess. He originally thought that His Highness had become the Empress, and he was the Prince of Phoenix for sure.
However, he didn't expect that he would be intercepted by Changsun Wuyou halfway, and he only got the position of a noble lord!
hateful!
Changsun Wuyou, this bitch!
When did he hook up with Your Highness?
Who in the capital isn't laughing at him now?
He was the legitimate son of the Duke of Qin, but he lost to a bitch that no one wanted. How abominable!
Xue Ming really hated Changsun Wuyou who stole his wife and snatched his throne!
No matter how much he hated it, he could not stop the new emperor from marrying his eldest grandson Wuyou.
