Chapter 2838 So Many Secret Edicts?

Shen Long's voice made the entire imperial palace become noisy. The eunuchs and maids who heard it all went crazy. How many people will be buried with such a big incident!

"The murderers are Fang Yan and Fang Ci from Hangzhou, and Xia Ziwei from Jinan. They have nothing to do with others! If you want revenge, come to Jiangning to find me!" Under the watchful eyes of eunuchs, palace maids and Ouchi guards, they jumped out of the palace after a few leaps.

The eunuchs and maids saw that the assassin had escaped, so they could only inform the empress, the empress dowager and others, and they were a little clever, so they quickly tried to find a way to inform Qianlong's sons that since the old emperor was dead, the new emperor should succeed. If you sell well, the future is bright! It's just that they still don't know who is the real successor, so they can only be confused.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" After a while, Nanny Rong rushed over to the Empress. Seeing Qianlong's miserable state, Empress Nala not only felt sad, but also fainted from crying.

After crying three times in a row, someone reminded the empress that it is not time to cry now, since the emperor has passed away, he must deal with the most important matters quickly, and Nanny Rong hurriedly whispered in the empress' ear , "Queen, quickly call Elder Brother Twelve over, if it's late, it's too late!"

Empress Nala had two sons and one daughter. The youngest son, Aixinjueluo-Yongjing, was born on December 21, the 20th year of Qianlong, and died on July 24, the 22nd year of Qianlong; The fifth daughter of the emperor was born on June 23rd in the eighteenth year of Qianlong and died on April 22nd in the twentieth year of Qianlong.

Now there is only the eldest son and the twelfth son of the emperor, Aixinjueluo-Yongzhen, who was born on April 25th in the seventeenth year of Qianlong. He is only seven years old this year and has not yet left the palace;

"But...but..." Nala also felt impulsive when she heard this. Does that mother not want her child to be emperor? This is not only a matter of wealth, as a prince, but also the queen's son, if someone else becomes the emperor, will he have a good end? However, the secret storage system established by Yongzheng made Nala hesitate again.

Perhaps because he had had enough of suffering from the Kowloon seizure of the throne, Yongzheng announced when he summoned the princes and ministers in the Xinuang Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace after succeeding to the throne, "Now that my sons are still young, we must be careful and careful about establishing a reserve. It was held, but I had to plan it in advance. Today, I personally wrote and sealed this matter, hid it in a box, and placed it in the middle of Qianqing Palace. After the plaque of "Fairness and Brightness" written by Emperor Shizuzhang, it is the highest place in the palace. , in case of emergency, all kings and ministers should know about it."

Emperor Yongzheng ordered all the kings and ministers to discuss this approach, and all the kings and ministers had no objection, so Emperor Yongzheng ordered all the ministers to retreat, leaving only the prime minister to store the sealed brocade box behind the plaque of "Fair and Bright". After Yongzheng's death, he ascended the throne smoothly relying on the secret edict taken out by the ministers from behind the "fair and bright" plaque.

After Qianlong ascended the throne, he naturally had to follow this practice, so he also hid the secret edict behind the upright plaque. Nala also knew about this. Did it hurt him?

While hesitating, footsteps came from outside again, and someone announced loudly, "The Empress Dowager Chongqing is here!" It seemed that someone had already notified Qianlong's biological mother Niu Gulu, and Nala and others rushed to the door to greet her.

Niu Gulu is already sixty-seven this year, but his body is still strong. In the original history, this person died at the age of eighty-four. But now that he has suffered such a big blow, it is hard to say how long he can live. .

"It's this time now, why do you still pay attention to this!" The old lady got down from the sedan chair, tears came out at that time, and with the support of the eunuch and maid,

Walking up to Qianlong tremblingly, he took a few glances at his death, "Okay my son, why did you leave Erniang behind and leave? How can you let Erniang live!"

After crying for a while, Niu Gulu resisted the pain in his heart, and turned to ask Nala, "What are you going to do next?"

"My child is in such a turmoil and pain that I can't handle it, I still ask the Queen Mother to make the decision!" What else could Lashi say? Could it be that she wants to bring her son over to become the throne? It can only be arranged by Niu Gulushi.

"You feel distressed, don't I feel distressed? But now is not the time for our mother and son to cry, the emperor has passed away, but the country cannot live without a king. Immediately summon the princes and ministers in Beijing to enter the palace and go' Take out the secret edict from the back of the plaque to help establish the new emperor!" She doesn't care who becomes the emperor, since they are all her grandsons anyway, and the honor she deserves will not be less.

Nala's is different, if the other concubine's children become emperor, her status in the palace will plummet in the future, but she is always reluctant in her heart, so she can only let Niu Gulu take care of her.

Niu Gulu first called for the commander of the Ouchi guards, and after a severe reprimand, he asked him to perform his crimes and meritorious deeds. The emperor was killed in the palace, and the commander of the guards knew that he was doomed. He sent his guards to guard the gate of the palace tightly. Except for the empress dowager's personal order, no one's orders were recognized.

The empress dowager sent eunuchs and guards to summon all the important ministers and princes into the palace overnight. After these people hurried into the palace, they saw Qianlong lying on the dragon bed without breathing, and cried together again. Followed by crying.

After crying for a while, Niu Gulu said, "Okay, there will be times when you will be filial to the emperor in the future, but for now, let's take out the secret edict and do everything that needs to be done!"

So everyone came to Qianqing Palace together again, the eunuch fetched the ladder, climbed up the last time under the eyes of countless people, stretched out his hand to find a box from behind the "upright and bright" plaque, and was about to open it, the eunuch suddenly changed his face, "Reporting....Reporting to the Empress Dowager, there is more than one box behind this plaque, have you all... taken them out?"

"Ah?" No matter if it is the concubine, the prince, or the princes and ministers, they are all panicked. Behind this upright plaque, there has always been only one copy of the secret edict for the establishment of the crown prince. Even if the crown prince is changed on the way, it will replace the old one with the new one. Will there be multiple boxes?

"All... take them all out!" The empress dowager didn't expect such a thing to happen, but since the eunuch had already said it, she had to take it out and open it one by one.

"You must remember the order, and paste the serial number when you take it out!" A minister reminded, and the empress dowager nodded and ordered the eunuch to do so.

Then each of these people stretched their necks very long, as if a lot of ducks were held up by invisible hands, watching the eunuch take out one box after another.
