Xuanzheng Hall is a place where court meetings are held on weekdays. The emperor handles government affairs with his ministers here.

Hanging a sword on the dragon chaise of Xuanzheng Hall. The sword hanging on the beam has the meaning of hanging on the beam and pricking the thighs, and it also has the meaning of telling the emperor that he should not relax his vigilance at all times.

This sword is called Chengtian Sword and is also respected as the People's Sword. Chengtian's fortune symbolizes the meaning of all people. The sword hangs above the emperor's head, and has the meaning of "the people are the most important, and the emperor is the least concerned". The different regulations and patterns of the sword also symbolize the issue of the emperor's inheritance.

During the Huangdi era, all the emperors cast red copper swords and cast them from Shouyang Mountain. The sword body carved the sun, moon and stars on one side, and the mountains, rivers, plants and trees on the other side. The hilt of the sword wrote the techniques of farming and animal care, and the strategy of unifying the world on the other side. This sword came according to the sword's sword of Emperor Xuanyuan, symbolizing the inheritance of the king and the Huangdi, and respecting Huangdi as the saint.

This rule has been passed down for thousands of years, but it has changed slightly during the era of Emperor Longxiang. As the descendant of the Emperor of Heaven, the Great Zhou Dynasty used the People's Sword of Chengtian, which was in the form of a dragon. The sword body was engraved with golden dragon patterns on one side, and the country on the other side. The hilt of the sword was written according to the style of Xuanyuan Sword and wrote the techniques of farming and animal cultivation and the strategies of the imperial way to govern the world.

Xun Yi mentioned the imperial edict left by Emperor Mingzong, and everyone came to Xuanzheng Hall. Emperor Chengyuan personally took off the sword of Chengtian and pulled out the sword from the scabbard. At this time, a piece of gold and silk and a booklet fell out.

Zong Bo took the two things first, saw the gold and silk first, and his expression changed: "This is indeed the handwritten letter of Emperor Mingzong."

Emperor Chengyuan held the Chengtian Sword and felt unstable. His father left an edict, and no one knew what the edict was.

Emperor Chengyuan subconsciously looked at Xun Yi next to him, and Xun Yi nodded slightly to him.

"I feel that my life is about to end. I will be worthy of the country and the people of all people in this life. At that time, the people of all directions are safe. However, I only have one thing to worry about, and I am afraid that my ancestors and ancestors will not be able to see them after death..."

After seeing this, Zong Bo passed the gold and silk to Prince Wei. "Your Majesty, come and read it." His tone became a little more relaxed. With this edict, the country would be fine.

Seeing this, King Wei read aloud: "In the past, Jie's animal collapsed the country and harmed the dragon descendants. I originally wanted to kill him, but Xun Qing and his ministers blocked each other and let the animal survive for a long time."

Listening to Prince Wei’s reading, Prince Yi’s heart sank: Did Emperor Ming actually leave such an edict?

Needless to say, Jie Zu refers to his father. Because he was kicked out of the genealogy and cursed to erase his name, his name would not appear even in the suicide note of Emperor Mingzong. Jie means tyranny, and this is used to refer to the deposed prince.

In addition, a beast kept silent, everyone immediately understood the deep malice of the late emperor towards the deposed prince.

Then, this edict is not good for King Yi.

Prince Yi winked at the people around him, and everyone was secretly wary.

Xun Yi also instructed the people around him: "Let your help and cheer up." Most of the ministers in the Great Zhou Dynasty, even the ministers in the court, had a skill and martial arts. Especially for the major families, the heads of the family have family martial arts and blood talents. In this case, the court allowed to bring a few personal guards during some big banquets.

There are more than a hundred people standing in Xuanzheng Hall. Although most of the guards are left outside, all of them are Jianjiazi.

The atmosphere was depressed, and Xun Yi and others were careful and guarded their three daughters, including Xun Jing, Xun Xing, Xun Tan.

"Ying Xiu, be careful too." Xun Yi hinted to Ying Xiu who was standing next to his father.

Ying Xiu nodded slightly, with a phoenix jade plaque buttoned in her sleeve, always protecting her father.

"Jie Zu slaughtered dragon descendants, his temperament was violent and his behavior was vulgar. He was so kind..." Prince Wei paused for a moment and said in surprise: "This handwriting was written by the late emperor and there was no copying, so there were a few lines of lines of text on the gold and silk." The wolf heart was cut off, and there were corrections afterwards.

"Wolf, the face of courage, the face of dog, the face of loyalty and righteousness. Compared with wolf and dog, it is actually a humiliating beast."

"What a deep malicious intention." Xun Yi murmured in his heart. After many years, he could also feel the disgust of Mingzong to the deposed prince above gold and silk.

"How can these beasts occupy the throne of the Nine Five? If Jie and Jin are on the throne, the country will be in danger, the rituals and music will collapse, the disaster for the people, and the country will be disaster." When Prince Wei read this, he saw Mingzong drop two passages and jumped over to continue reading.

"It happened that Liu was pregnant, and I got Lin'er again in my sixties."

When Prince Yi heard this, he sneered in his heart: It’s a pity that you gave birth to a daughter. If the edict does not mention Emperor Chengyuan’s life experience, I will still have something to say.

"I told Xun Qing that if the dragon heir was born successfully in the morning, he would kill Jie Zu to sacrifice to heaven."

"However, good and bad are unpredictable, and they are all destined by God. Liu gave birth to a daughter, and it is difficult for him to inherit the imperial system. If this matter is spread, relying on the rampantness of Jie and the livestock, it will cause trouble to the country."

The highlight is coming! Everyone pricked up their ears, their minds tense, listening to what Prince Wei said next.

"Fortunately, I am the Great Zhou Dynasty. When the princess was born, the brothers and wife of Emperor Rui had another son, so they would take the matter of changing their sons and adopting them."

"No! It doesn't make sense from the legal point of view. If the late emperor really wants to adopt it, why don't the records on the jade certificate and the actions of the Taimiao and other announcements to the Taimiao? If this matter was explained early, wouldn't there be no disaster today?" Suddenly, a court official questioned the statement on gold and silk. "This edict is fake!"

Emperor Chengyuan was also confused. Although the edict was to help him, it seemed that there was something that was incomprehensible.

"Fake it? Even Your Majesty doesn't know this edict, only our Xun family knows. Don't you suspect that our Xun family is taking action in secret?"

"Isn't it possible? In order to become the emperor's mother again, the Xun family used this despicable means." After all, this edict just refused to recognize it. What can you do?

Zong Bo looked up at the courtier, and his eyes shot out two cold lights, forcing the courtier back. "This is a handwritten letter from Emperor Mingzong, and I can testify. Could it be that it was left by the Xun family forcing the late emperor?"

"It is precisely because the late emperor is concerned about brotherhood that he never explained this matter." Ying Xiu's eyes rolled and he smiled and said, "If the little girl has never remembered it wrong. When His Majesty and the Princess were born in the past, it happened that Prince Rui had been guarding the border for ten years? If he was adopted openly, how could the King Rui and his family guard the border again?"

That's right, after adoption, his biological parents must avoid suspicion and will definitely not dare to get involved in the power of the court again to avoid suspicion from the emperor and even the ministers.

"The late emperor was grateful for his brotherly feelings and never explained this matter, which is reasonable."

Of course, these are just speculations by later generations. The situation was very awkward at that time. After learning that she had given birth to a daughter, Liu Fei decisively died of the informant buried in Prince Rui's mansion attacked the old concubine and secretly gave her medicine to induce her to give birth.

Concubine Liu was determined to prepare for the second time from the moment the old concubine became pregnant. If she couldn't give birth to herself or had any mistakes, she would use Princess Rui's child as a substitute.

The old concubine remained silent, ignoring the dispute between Ying Xiu and others, and gradually recalling the situation that night.

That night was extremely dangerous. She was plotted to induce childbirth, but because the time was less than time, she could not give birth and was dragged until the next day.

The longer it drags on, the harder it becomes. Just as her life is hanging by a thread, she used her last little effort to give birth to her youngest son. Seeing that her youngest son fainted after birth, when she woke up again, she was suddenly told that she had a daughter.

Everything was dazzled by herself.

With the water flowing in the mansion, she was suspicious and secretly wrote a letter to tell her husband and younger brother who were far away on the border. Xun Yu came to Prince Rui's Mansion for a walk. After asking about the situation, she felt a clear idea and came directly to the palace to find the late emperor to raise an army to ask for the crime.
