Chapter 42 Conferment



Jun Zechen's expression suddenly darkened, as cold as an icy pond, his brows tightly furrowed.

This is in front of my father’s spirit!

The Queen was also shocked, but she quickly recovered and said, "Prince, Tang Fengyi is pregnant. Bring her back to the East Palace immediately!"

After all, seeing blood in front of the late emperor's spirit is a taboo and a great disrespect to the late emperor.

Jun Zechen's expression was as cold as ice.

Although he knew that it was extremely difficult for Tang Fengyi to give birth safely, he would never leave in such a way.

He walked quickly forward, carried the person away, and after leaving the mourning hall, placed Tang Fengyi on the sedan chair.

Then he turned around and ordered the palace maid beside him: "Take Tang Fengyi back to the East Palace and send someone to call the imperial physician immediately."

After saying this, Jun Zechen turned around and returned to the mourning hall without hesitation.

Tang Fengyi looked at Jun Zechen's back as he walked away, and the pain on his face became more and more intense.

I don’t know whether this pain comes from the severe pain in my stomach or from the man’s almost heartless attitude.

She was clearly pregnant with his child, and now she had a miscarriage, but she didn't get any sympathy from him.

In front of the mourning hall, at the moment when the prince took Tang Fengyi away, An Liangdi covered herself with mourning clothes in an extremely covert manner and quietly replaced the Buddhist beads that Tang Fengyi had replaced before.

She carefully wrapped the Buddhist beads stained with nettle powder and aconite powder in a handkerchief and then hid it in her sleeve without making a sound.

Su Jingyao, who had been paying close attention to An Liangdi and Tang Fengyi, saw all her little movements clearly.

To be on the safe side, she even quietly walked to the side of the Crown Princess, bent down, and prepared to help her up.

He also cleverly stepped on the Buddhist beads in front of An Liangdi, so that An Liangdi could act more conveniently.

Then he asked with concern: "Sister Crown Princess, what's wrong with you?"

As he spoke, he gently helped her up.

The queen had a gloomy and angry look on her face as she walked straight to Ling Yue.

A crisp "pop" sound echoed in the air.

The queen raised her hand without hesitation and slapped him hard.

Ling Yue staggered by the sudden attack, and his eyes were instantly filled with shock.

There was endless grievance and deep fear in his eyes.

The Queen shouted angrily, "Come here! The Crown Princess has committed treason by assaulting the late Emperor's body. Take her to the ancestral hall and make her kneel down to pray for the late Emperor and copy Buddhist scriptures a hundred times!"

When Jun Zechen came in, he happened to miss the scene of his mother beating Ling Yue.

All he heard was the Queen Mother's ruthless and extremely cold punishment decision.

When he got closer, he saw the clear slap mark on Ling Yue's face.

At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jun Zechen could only frown and look at Ling Yue with complicated eyes.

He couldn't openly contradict his mother at this time.

The most important thing at the moment is to complete the mourning ceremony for my father.

Jun Zechen had no choice but to ignore Ling Yue's eyes that were full of help.

Seeing this, the eunuch beside the queen hurried forward and took Ling Yue away.

When the Queen slapped Ling Yue, Su Jingyao stepped back slightly and very "accidentally" stepped on the Buddhist beads that An Liangdi had changed.

After all, Tang Fengyi had stepped on it before. If someone found out that this Buddhist rosary was still brand new, wouldn't that arouse suspicion?

She should help them, but she can't let the queen find anything suspicious.

After Ling Yue was taken away, the palace maids acted extremely quickly and quickly cleaned up the bloodstains left by Tang Fengyi.

In front of the mourning hall, calm seemed to be restored in an instant, and all procedures continued to be arranged normally in an orderly manner.

Minister Su stood quietly in the first row of ministers, looking at his daughter lovingly with a hint of relief in his eyes.

As the head of the civil officials, it is naturally impossible to say that he has no ambition or desire at all.

His daughter was raised in his arms, treated like a treasure.

His Majesty's marriage order made his daughter the Crown Prince's concubine, so he was naturally reluctant.

As his daughter, she could obviously become the Crown Princess.

The current Crown Princess is not suitable for that position, so let her make way for his daughter.

At the beginning, the prince married the daughter of a military general as his princess, although the ministers in the court were somewhat dissatisfied with this.

But it is not necessary to keep a close eye on the prince's backyard.

As the ruler and his subjects, they still knew the limits in their hearts. After all, the prince's strength was there.

As long as the Crown Princess doesn't have any major faults, it doesn't matter if her status is not noble.

But what about the current Crown Princess?

She could neither give birth to an heir to the throne nor was she strong enough to take on the important role of Crown Princess or even future Queen.

The occurrence of such a thing on an occasion like today is enough for all officials to criticize him.

A hint of contemplation flashed across Minister Su's eyes.

In this case, he must do his utmost to support his daughter to take the throne!

In the following period of time, Jun Zechen was extremely busy every day.

Not only did they have to hold various ceremonies for the late emperor in accordance with royal rules, but they also had to review memorials and handle state affairs.

This busy state continued until the 27th day after the death of the late emperor, when Emperor Jingsheng was buried in the imperial mausoleum.

Afterwards, Jun Zechen officially ascended the throne and added a posthumous title to the late emperor:

"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: I remember the late Emperor Jingsheng, whose achievements throughout his life were outstanding and whose virtue matched that of heaven and earth.
