It didn't take long, and under Su Jinpa's arrangement, a sedan stopped at the entrance of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Li Chen glanced at it and saw that there were only two people carrying the sedan, Xu Wei and Xiao Chuanzi.
Ogawazi lowered his head, not daring to look at anything, just staring at his toes.
Xu Wei also lowered his head. He bowed to Li Chen and said, "Your Highness, please get on the sedan."
Li Chen carried Emperor Daxing on his back and entered the sedan chair. He only felt the sedan body shake, and then he started to move forward unsteadily.
All the way to the Qianqing Palace, when the sedan was put down, Xu Wei and Xiao Chuanzi were gone. The entire Qianqing Palace had been emptied, and no one was there.
Li Chen carried the body of Emperor Daxing into the Qianqing Palace and placed it on the dragon bed. He stood beside the bed and looked at the peaceful face of Emperor Daxing quietly, with ups and downs in his heart.
Although there is no so-called father-son relationship, Li Chen can feel that in the last moments of Emperor Daxing's return to glory, he was trying his best to instill all the political wisdom of his life into himself.
It's just that life is too long and one night is too short.
After all, Emperor Daxing did not finish everything he wanted to say, but Li Chen believed that he ended with a smile.
After standing there for who knows how long, Li Chen suddenly turned around and walked out of Qianqing Palace.
Xu Wei was standing respectfully at the palace gate.
"Two things."
Li Chen said: "The first thing is to lift the martial law ban in the capital, but the Yulin Guards will not withdraw their troops and will still stay in the capital to guard against emergencies. During this period, any scoundrels who try to cause chaos will be killed without mercy."
"The second thing is to find a group of people who are absolutely trustworthy and take turns guarding Qianqing Palace in three shifts."
Li Chen stared at Xu Wei and said: "These people are only responsible for one thing, to guard the entire Qianqing Palace to death. Unless I come in person, anyone who breaks into the Qianqing Palace will die."
Xu Wei felt his scalp numb, and he immediately said: "I understand."
After exhaling a breath, Li Chen said: "Prepare the carriage and horses, I want to leave the palace."
Xu Wei immediately asked: "May I ask where your highness is going? It's a humble job to make arrangements."
Li Chen pondered for a moment and said: "Royal Academy."
Xu Wei did not hesitate and said: "I will make arrangements immediately."
When Li Chen was about to board the carriage and horse prepared by Xu Wei, Su Jinpa came in a hurry.
"Father wants to see you." Su Jinpa said.
"Let the general wait in the Xi Zheng Hall of the East Palace. I have someone important to meet," Li Chen said.
Su Jinpa asked: "Is it Zhao Xuanji?"
Li Chen had just returned to Beijing and wanted to control the situation in the capital in the shortest possible time. He had to reach a tacit understanding with Zhao Xuanji, so Su Jinpa's guess was completely within common sense.
But Li Chen shook his head and said: "I must go to see Zhao Xuanji, but it doesn't matter anytime. I have to go to the Royal Academy first."
Su Jinpa was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood, nodded and said: "That's right... Your Highness has thought carefully and should indeed go to the Royal Academy first."
Li Chen smiled and squeezed Su Jinpa's hand and said: "Right now, the sky is falling and the earth is falling. There are many things that I need to remedy and prevent before they happen. I always have to be busy, and there are some things that I can't take care of. You should work harder."
Su Jinpa pursed his lips and smiled, and said softly: "There is no need for such politeness between you and me. I know what's appropriate."
"After these matters are dealt with, I will complete the unfinished ritual with you."
After Li Chen finished speaking, he left, leaving Su Jinpa with a blushing face.
What else can the unfinished ritual be?
Chapter completed!
