Chapter 305: No one knows after a lot of hard work (7)
Xuanyuan Yao locked himself in Yaoguang Palace for the whole night.
Baili Jixiang sat in front of the door, silent and waiting all night.
Outside the Yaoguang Palace, people came to keep vigil for the emperor, and the ministers who inquired about the news stayed with him all night.
A country cannot live without a king for a day. Who will succeed the throne next is a big question.
The emperor who had just died had no son, so naturally no one could legitimately take over the throne.[
Besides, Yi Zun Wang Xuanyuan came back from the front line at such a critical moment. With him watching eagerly, the various factions' attempts to move were immediately curbed.
Those who have military power in their hands have the confidence to speak hard. All politics are a joke in the face of power. No matter how good their words are, if someone cuts them off with a knife, they will be dead.
No matter whether the emperor was at odds with King Yi Zun during his lifetime, it would not change the fate of Xuanyuan Yao's rise.
Among the ministers, one person could not restrain his excitement. He pretended to be sad about the emperor's death, but also carefully hid his pride.
That person is Baili Xing.
He first took the initiative to send Jixiang to the palace, hoping to use this method to consolidate the position of the Baili family in Longguang Kingdom. Unexpectedly, the emperor later 'changed hands' and gave it to King Yi Zun, which caused a great loss of face.
But who would have thought that his little Jixiang was born to be a noble woman who ruled the Sixth Palace. After marrying Xuanyuan Yao, the emperor died, and her husband suddenly became the most promising candidate to inherit the throne.
It was simply god-like luck, whoever married her would be destined to be emperor.
There are many smart people in Longguang Kingdom, and those who can stand here are those with prosperous official career. Anyone who stands up is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
After King Yi Zun entered Yaoguang Hall, he never came out.
It's a long night, and I have to find something to do to pass the time.
