Chapter 242 The Queen Arrives



According to Wu Zhang's idea, he would find another extraordinary master to assassinate him in public.

It’s best to kill with one blow!

But Chen An felt it was troublesome because he had already laid the groundwork for the news that he was seriously injured and dying.

Just announce the death directly.

And he was also sure that he would let people know that he was really dead!

then……

"His Majesty……"

The princes and ministers knelt on the ground outside the Nine Dragon Hall, crying miserably.

People who don’t understand might really think that these guys are so sad and unable to control themselves because of Chen An’s death!

The entire palace seemed to be filled with a sense of sadness.

But at this moment, Zhang Qi, who was hiding in a private house, was still holding a fishing rod, as if he was fishing.

The black-robed man beside him looked anxious and couldn't help but urge: "Mr. Zhang, everyone is waiting for you to take charge!"

Zhang Qi remained silent, calm and composed: "Wait until I catch some fish, then I'll go!"

The man in black robe was stunned. He looked at the few koi in the pond. They were fed a lot of food every day, so how could they be so easy to catch?

The key is...

There was no bait on Zhang Qi's hook...

The man in black robe frowned and wanted to say something!

But at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over quickly with an anxious look on his face.

"Report..."

The black-robed man shouted angrily, "Why are you shouting so loudly? What's going on?"

"Sir, Lu Hongyi has left the mountain and is on the way!"

The black-robed man's expression changed slightly: "Mr. Zhang, Lu Hongyi is here. If we don't make a decision now, it might be too late!"

But at this moment, Zhang Qi put away his fishing rod and smiled: "The fish I wanted to catch is here!"

The man in black robe was stunned and had no idea what Zhang Qi was talking about.

Zhang Qi looked at the man in black robes and said, "Pass the order down. No one is allowed to act rashly until Lu Hongyi arrives in Tiandu City. Even the slightest hint of intention is forbidden!"

"Second, inform the Liuli Sect that no one is allowed to enter the city without my signal!"

"yes!"

Although the man in black robe and the subordinate who came to report the news did not understand, they quickly took the order and left.

Zhang Qi looked towards the rainy sky and took a deep breath. "This situation is quite suitable for attending a funeral!"

After saying that, Zhang Qi turned around and walked towards a room.

Squeak...

Pushing open the door of the room, the interior was very simple, with only a bed and an altar.

On the altar, there is only a tablet with only two words on it: Saint of Strategy!

Zhang Qi lit three incense sticks, bowed solemnly three times, and then inserted them into the incense burner in front of the tablet.

Zhang Qi looked at the tablet, his eyes sharp as a knife: "Zhang Qi, the descendant of the Strategist, will definitely make my Zhang family's reputation as the Strategist shine brightly once again!"

After saying this, he kowtowed again and murmured, "Ancestor, I, Zhang Qi, will make it clear to all the Zhang family branches under heaven that my Liyang branch is the orthodox branch of the Zhang family and the direct descendant of the Saint of Strategy!"

Then, Zhang Qi's face turned pale and he turned and walked out.

Amid the wailing sounds, the Right Prime Minister, King Tianwu, as well as the royal uncle Huangfu Ze, Shangguan Feng, King Cheng, and King Lin were all standing in the hall.

In addition, there are Liu Tong, Cheng Wei, the third elder, the sixth elder, the seventh elder and other powerful people from the Fengshen Sect.

The people from Fengshen Sect all looked solemn, but the atmosphere in the hall was filled with oppression.

Chu Yu looked at Chen An, who was lying in the coffin that had not yet been covered, with his eyes closed, his face pale but his expression peaceful.

Chu Yu looked at Huangfu Zhang and said, "Prince Tianwu, His Majesty has passed away. I wonder if he left behind any will?"

Huangfu Zhang's face showed bitterness. His Huangfu Zhang lineage was about to rise.

However, they never expected that plans could never keep up with changes. The new king died just a few days after he ascended the throne!

This made Huangfu Zhang feel a little unbelievable. Although he knew a few days ago that Chen An was seriously injured and did not even attend the court, he had never expected that Chen An would die.

Huangfu Zhang sighed, "His Majesty did not summon me before his death, nor did he leave me any instructions."

Shangguan Feng next to him frowned, not sad, but worried.

This result was so sudden that Shangguan Feng was not prepared at all.

However, in the main hall, the strong men of the Fengshen Sect, although not showing grief, had solemn and dignified expressions, as if they were on a pilgrimage.

That’s right!

The people from Fengshenmen really admired Chen An at this moment. Chen An actually pretended to be dead and lay in the coffin.

At this moment, Chen An, who was lying inside, had no signs of life or breath at all, even if a strong person spied on him.

It’s not that Chen An used the Liuli Sect’s deceiving technique, but the Fengshen Sect’s unique skill, the technique of resting prisoners.

Once you fall into it, there is dead silence, no sound at all.

However, although Chen An himself was unable to use his soul, he could hear the sounds outside.

At this moment, Chen An enjoyed the pleasure of being mourned in advance. The feeling was... very complicated.

When Chen An heard what Chu Yu asked Huangfu Zhang, he felt relieved. This Chu Yu might have already prepared a candidate for the new king.

At this time, Cheng Wei spoke up, "His Majesty passed away and left a will, appointing the former Fifth Prince, Huangfu Yu, to inherit the throne. The Fifth Prince is now on his way back. When he ascends the throne, I will personally hold a grand funeral for His Majesty!"

After hearing this, Chu Yu frowned slightly and wanted to say something, but suddenly heard a voice: "Don't talk nonsense, wait!"

When Chu Yu heard this, he quickly restrained his expression, looked sad, and stopped talking.

Huangfu Zhang clasped his fists and said, "I will obey your majesty's orders and will assist the new emperor wholeheartedly!"

Chu Yu also bowed and saluted, saying only, "I will obey your order!"
