Princess Qinbao stood up slowly while holding the child in her arms, her eyes froze with bloodshot eyes.
The baby in his arms woke up and opened his eyes, and saw a stranger holding him and started crying.
Concubine Wei's words completely revealed the truth that Princess Qinbao wanted to hide most in her heart.
The queen did deserve to die, but that was her mother.
Li Junche looked at Murong Nie and signaled him to take Princess Qinbao down.
What people never expected was that before Murong Nie started to leave, Princess Qinbao, who was holding the child, suddenly lifted the second princess high and then slammed her to the ground.
The baby's cry disappeared instantly.
Concubine Wei's face was covered with blood.
Many people were frightened and were stunned. Everyone could see how much strength Li Jinshu used because the baby's head exploded.
Even Li Junche looked at Li Jinshu in disbelief.
"Ah, my child." Concubine Wei rushed over and picked up the lifeless baby.
Princess Qinbao spread her hands and smiled, "After you poisoned my father and killed my mother, you still want your child to enjoy the honor and wealth of a princess for the rest of his life. Don't even think about it."
Inside the King's Office.
Wen Jinhe got up from the couch with wide eyes, "What did you say? Princess Qinbao threw the princess born to Concubine Wei to death?"
Zhao Bi nodded, "Yes, he fell to the ground in front of Concubine Wei and died on the spot."
They all lay at Wen Jinhe's feet and shook their heads. They were kept in a cage by Manqiu Yiyi for the past few days, but they were so aggrieved.
"I really didn't expect that." Wen Jinhe put one hand on the desk and sat down slowly, "How is the situation in the palace now?"
Zhao Bi replied: "The prince will be back in the evening."
After Concubine Wei was taken away, Princess Qinbao became stiff and left the hall like a mummy.
Su Qingli cupped his hands and knelt down, "A country cannot live without a king for a day. Please, His Highness Prince Che, ascend the throne as soon as possible and restore peace and prosperity to the world."
"His Royal Highness King Che is invited to ascend the throne."
……
You Zhicheng, who was kneeling on the ground with everyone else, glanced slightly towards the entrance of the hall. It was time for King Heng to arrive.
"His Royal Highness King Heng is here."
The chamberlain guarding the door shouted loudly facing forward.
All the civil and military officials, whose heads had been knocked to the ground but had not yet been lifted up, turned pale in shock and all turned their heads to look.
Isn’t His Highness King Heng dead?
Li Yuheng used a cane and his arm was hung by a bandage as he walked toward Li Junche step by step.
Li Junche, dressed in armor, stood on the spot, his dark eyes full of indifference.
"Second brother."
Li Junche: "Brother Emperor."
The ministers fell into silence. It was certain that King Che would be the emperor. King Heng appeared at this time. If he wanted to fight, he would definitely die.
There are two hundred thousand troops inside and outside the city. If you are not careful, you will definitely mutiny.
Su Qingli raised his head and said righteously: "Since the late emperor did not leave any will, the throne should be determined based on talents. His Royal Highness King Che has outstanding military achievements. He single-handedly wiped out the Linyue Kingdom and the Snow Kingdom. The people's support is what they want, and all the people worship him." , shall inherit the throne.”
As an auxiliary minister and the late emperor's advisor, Su Qingli's words carried the most weight, and all the officials in the court had already turned their hearts to King Che. Even if Li Yuheng was alive, he would not be able to save the situation.
Li Yuheng, who was wearing a cane, listened to everyone's words. Although he felt harsh, he really had nothing to do.
He looked at Li Junche, took a deep breath, bowed his head, knelt down and cupped his hands and said, "Before leaving, my father once said in front of me that I would like my second brother to inherit the throne, and I will bow to the new emperor."
It would be more beneficial for Li Yuheng to bow his head and show weakness at this time, allowing Li Junche to ascend the throne more smoothly.
You Zhicheng looked at Li Yuheng in surprise, not expecting him to compromise so easily.
"Long live my emperor."
"Long live my emperor."
……
Li Junche issued an edict to expose the crimes of Concubine Wei and Yan Ming to the world, completely removing the influence of the previous forged edict.
The day before the coronation ceremony.
Including members of the Linyue King, the royal family, Yan Ming, Zhao Fangliang and other officials were all taken to the Meridian Gate and beheaded.
Wen Jinhe sat at the table and watched. It was not Wen Yanru, Wen Xianyue and the Queen who were killed, and she did not intend to do it herself.
The ones holding the beheading machetes were Lu Yebai and Lu Hongan.
As for Concubine Wei, she was killed by Li Jinshu in prison.
The eldest princess of Linyue Kingdom, Wen Shiran, had her hands tied and was kneeling on the ground. She looked with fearful eyes at Wen Jinhe, who was sitting on a chair in front of her and being served by a maid.
However, in two years, the person who was trampled under their feet and bullied and humiliated wantonly was now sitting there, while they were reduced to slaves of the subjugated country, prisoners, and were about to die.
How sad it is to switch identities.
If she had known this, she should have been kinder to Wen Jinhe. Maybe now she would care about blood and family ties and save their lives.
Unfortunately it's too late now.
Lu Yebai's hand holding the machete was very steady. Unfortunately, his biggest enemy was dead, and now he could only cut off his descendants.
The head fell and everything settled.
There is no more Linyue Kingdom in the mainland.
The people Li Junche sent to Wenning City to investigate also came back. Wen Mingting hid 70,000 secret soldiers in Wenning City, but by the time they arrived with their men, the 70,000 secret soldiers had been disbanded.
After the leading generals learned that Wen Mingting was dead, they immediately disbanded the army. Ningxing'an's 300,000 people had not defeated Li Junche. Now that the emperor was dead, why did they work so hard for their lives? Living was more important than anything else.
The day of the coronation ceremony.
All civil and military officials stood in the Chongyang Hall with their heads held high. Li Junche, dressed in a golden and black dragon robe, walked towards that position step by step holding Wen Jinhe wearing a phoenix crown with his right hand.
The bell rang, announcing that the new emperor had ascended the throne.
"Long live my emperor, long live my queen, and my queen may live a thousand years."
Li Junche raised his voice and said: "Ping Shen."
Wen Jinhe turned around and looked at the splendid dragon chair. This seat was really big, but it felt a little cold.
The corners of Li Junche's eyes rose, and a doting smile appeared on his lips, "Want to sit down?"
Wen Jinhe looked at him, "I want to try."
The civil and military officials standing at the foot of the stairs widened their eyes in astonishment, watching helplessly as the new emperor let go of the queen's hand and raised his chin towards the dragon chair.
Wen Jinhe was sitting on the dragon chair with her long phoenix robe skirt in hand. This feeling was a bit strange. She felt like she was being pricked by needles. She felt like someone was staring at her from behind, and she felt like she was in danger from a high place.
Shangshu Ling immediately knelt down and said, "Empress, only the emperor can sit on the dragon chair. This is against etiquette."
Li Junche walked to the dragon chair and stood next to it, "Half of this world was conquered by the queen. Not to mention this dragon chair, she is worthy of being the emperor."
This sentence really scared everyone.
Li Yuheng, who was standing on a crutch below, raised his eyes and looked at the couple. If he really wants to give the throne to Wen Jinhe, the world will turn upside down.
The world that was finally conquered was finally given to the princess of Linyue Kingdom, which was a waste of time.
Looking at the horrified expressions on everyone's faces, Wen Jinhe couldn't help but smile.
She stood up and pulled Li Junche over to sit on the dragon chair, while she sat on his lap. "I'm just kidding, you sit on the throne and I'll sit on you. I'm older than the emperor."
Li Junche put his arms around Wen Jinhe's waist and looked at her affectionately, "You are right, you are the biggest."
