The six palace maids retreated aside, and the twelve emperor seals held in their hands were of different shapes and slightly different colors, such as the twelve narrowed tablets of the late emperors, coldly supervising everything, and seeing what new tricks the descendants of the Han family could make.

Huangfu Yi, the person who looked at the aura, claimed that he had also used the name Chunyu Xiao to stand in the middle of the house. Others either consciously or unconsciously formed a circle to listen to him.

Huangfu Yi slowly circled in place to show his impartiality.

He said: "It sounds very strange that the ministers compete for the throne, and the ministers choose to establish a new emperor. It seems to be an unprecedented strange thing. But please listen to my nagging: In ancient times, the world was abdicated by the three generations of Duke, Yao, Shun, and Yu. On the surface, the former emperor appointed the latter emperor. In fact, the real decision was the minister. Danzhu was the eldest son of Yao. He failed to gain the support of the ministers and lost the throne. Shun worked hard for the people throughout his life and always accepted the supervision of the ministers..."

Huangfu Yi said a lot. Han Ruzi glanced at Yang Feng. It was under the guidance of this eunuch that he carefully read the ancient records in history books. The meaning was similar to what the person who looked at the qi said. However, the historical books attributed the abdication to the emperor's own noble character. Under Huangfu Yi's analysis, what really worked was the ministers. Only by obtaining the support of the ministers can the abdication work.

Yang Feng's accurate understanding of those who look at the air surprised Han Ruzi and even felt a little scared.

"But." Huangfu Yi changed his tone, "Abdication was an ancient thing after all, and it has been lost for a long time. After a thousand years, the throne was passed down from father to son, and the world thought it was a fixed pattern. For more than a hundred years, the throne of the Great Chu has been passed down continuously. However, since Emperor Wu passed away, abandoned his ministers and ascended to heaven, the throne was in chaos, and the subjects were at a loss. The world was turbulent and did not know where to follow. Da Chu was in danger. He was slightly connected with yin and yang, but fortunately, the Empress Dowager summoned him to observe the celestial phenomena and the geography of the lower part, and thought that there was a reason for the chaos..."

Huangfu Yi's next words were obscure, and he talked endlessly. In short, he just wanted to explain one thing. The rules of the throne inheritance should be changed, and there is no need to change them all. The great Chu country belongs to the Han family, which is recognized by the world. Therefore, the emperor still needs to be produced in the royal family no matter what, but it is not necessarily passed down by father and son. It can be slightly "retro" and chosen by the ministers.

In this way, after Huangfu Yi's explanation, the fact that the sects competed for the throne and the ministers elected emperor changed from a new and retro move.

Everyone listened more seriously, and Han Ruzi was the same. He was not convinced by being convinced, but wanted to find out what the real purpose of the person who looked at the qi was through these words.

Huangfu Yi showed no flaws. He pushed all his contributions and ideas to the empress dowager and the seriously ill emperor. At most, those who look up at the qi will give some advice.

Finally, he finally reached the point, "There are many clans in the royal family, and it is impossible for them to participate in the throne. The Zongzheng Mansion should have made a choice, but this is the first time. The Zongzheng Mansion has no experience and dares not take over, so he has to recommend himself by the descendants of the Han family, which is why the four of them came here."

Huangfu Yi continued to circle around the place and nodded one by one to the four contestants.

"Today is not the beginning of the throne, it is just a communication and explanation. I believe that the four princes and grandsons have all received recommendations from first-rank ministers, but they still need some certificates. It is simple. Within ten days, please get the official seal of the first-rank minister and hand it over to the Qinzheng Hall, so that several ministers can take a look, and after confirming that the original object is returned, there is no need for a single piece of paper or a word."

King Donghai couldn't help but speak, "It's better to let me go to Beijing than to ask for an official seal. The official seal is a serious crime."

King Donghai glanced at Han Ruzi and did not point out that this was a genius who seized the seal.

Huangfu Yi smiled and said, "It's okay, the four of you can come to Qinzheng Hall with their seals. After inspection, you can take them away and never stay in the hands of others." He paused, "For the sake of this emperor election, there has been no memorial in the palace for more than two months, and there is absolutely no reason to suddenly ask for a crime."

King Donghai still felt uneasy and asked: "For example... Taishi, I only need to get the Taishi Seal, but I don't need the official seal to receive the post?"

"No need." Huangfu Yi said.

There are only five first-rank ministers, including the Taifu, Taishi and Taibao, among which the Taifu, Taishi, and Taibao are among the three dukes, with the highest status, but they have no real power. They are just empty titles, have seals without precepts, and cannot order anyone in the court. If they take on other positions, they will have real power. For Cui Hong, the seal of the Taifu is not important, and the real meaning is the seal of the Southern Army, the Sima Seal.

Huangfu Yi claimed that only the seal of the Taifu was needed, and King Donghai was a little satisfied and was less suspicious. Although his real plan was to "rebellion" with the children of the royal family, he should not be careless about the election of the emperor.

"Then, in the next half a year, you can win the support of the minister."

"Half a year? So long?" Champion Hou asked. He had obtained a lot of support and wanted to announce the result immediately and was unwilling to wait for more.

"To be fair," Huangfu Yi replied, with a slightly serious expression. "This is the first time that a minister has elected an emperor in the Great Chu Dynasty. It must be impeccable so that no one can find fault."

"I have no objection, it's OK for a year." Champion Hou shrugged his shoulders, unable to think of anything that would make the minister change his mind within half a year.

"What if an accident happens within half a year?" Han Ruzi asked.

There is only one accident that can affect the election of the emperor. Everyone understands his meaning. Huangfu Yi's expression is even more serious. "If His Majesty has something to do, the Empress Dowager will temporarily be in charge of the government. As before, if the Empress Dowager also has something to do, the ministers of the Qinzheng Hall will rule. Once the new emperor is elected, the government will be returned immediately."

The young King of Ying may not understand what these people were saying. After standing for a long time, he was a little tired and pulled the corner of Yuan Zifan's clothes. Yuan Zifan smiled and signaled him to wait for a while.

Han Ruzi, King of Donghai, and Hou of the Champion looked at each other. At this moment, they were all descendants of the Han family. From the same standpoint, they heard the dangers of this rule. The Great Chu court may be completely controlled by ministers for a period of time. The power of the emperor had been weakened, and after this matter, it was probably even more difficult to retake it. Even Hou of the Champion wanted to hold great power after he became emperor and completely abolish the battle for the throne and the election of the emperor.

"In ancient times, ministers had a brief ruling, called the 'Republic'. After returning to power, they ushered in a revival." Huangfu Yi used the "retro" trick again, and then smiled and said, "What's more, this kind of thing will not happen. The Queen Mother is in good health, so you don't need to worry."

The three emperors of Emperor Wu stopped talking and waited for Huangfu Yi to continue explaining the rules. The King of Ying, who had not spoken, spoke in his voice, a little impatient, and a little tone, "What should I do if I was chosen by the minister in half a year and the current emperor is still alive?"

Han Ruzi and others looked at the "little uncle" and suspected that the problem was raised by Yuan Zifan.

This is indeed a problem. Although the emperor is seriously ill, he still has the possibility of recovery. The new emperor is elected, and the current emperor is still there, which will be very embarrassing.

Huangfu Yi smiled and said, "The Empress Dowager has considered this situation. If the saint is lucky enough to be reaped, of course he will continue to be the emperor. As for those who are elected, they will be appointed as the crown prince and the crown prince."

"Even if the emperor now has descendants..." Champion Hou cared the most.

"We cannot change the crown prince. Fighting for the throne and choosing the emperor is not a temporary measure, but also a method for all generations." Huangfu Yi said.

None of the four princes and grandsons would like to regard this as the "law of all ages", but no one would question it in front of those who look at the qi.

Huangfu Yi continued: "There are many ministers in the Great Chu Dynasty, and it is impossible for everyone to participate in the election of the emperor. A range is needed. The Empress Dowager thought that too many people would be useless. Only officials with the fifth rank or above have this power. They have no time to have any free officials and lack understanding of the government affairs. No matter how high the rank is, they cannot choose the emperor. They must be the official seal of the seal to participate in major events."

"Then there are not many people left." said Tokai Neptune.

"Three hundred and seventy-six people are slightly more than a year. When you send the official seal to the Qinzheng Hall, you will get a list."

"It is indeed not necessary to give the free officials the right to choose an emperor." The champion Hou said seriously. Like the previous dynasties, the number of free officials in Dachu has accumulated over time, and has long exceeded the number of officials who hold seals. Most of them came from royal families and noble families.

Donghai King and Han Ruzi nodded in agreement. This rule is beneficial to them and will make the royal family support them more than the champion Hou.

Huangfu Yi said some irrelevant rules, and finally said: "Before electing the emperor to ascend the throne, you must first write three amnesty orders. The first is to pardon those who compete for the throne, to be granted a king, to allow them to return to their country, and to give rewards, the second is to pardon the ministers, and the third is to pardon the world."

The general amnesty for the new emperor to ascend the throne. The first two ways are to ensure the safety of all parties to the election of the emperor. Several people agreed. The young King Ying began to yawn and leaned against Yuan Zifan's leg, looking sleepy.

"It's about to be finished." Huangfu Yi smiled at King Ying, "It's not enough to set rules alone. There are also laws enforcers who have supervision rules. Please invite Lord Shangguan, the General of the Guards."

The door opened and the Central Army General Shangguan Sheng stepped in.

Han Ruzi remembered this person. Shangguan Sheng had argued with his ministers in front of him. He was an emotional and courageous young man. Now he was standing at the door, his eyes swept across everyone's face and said, "I don't need to say more about the Eighth Battalions of the Suwei supervised the election of the emperor. You should understand that when you win the support of the ministers, you can do anything, but you can't use force. Once the warrior is verified, you will be dealt with by military law."

"What if I were framed?" asked King Donghai.

Shangguan Sheng said coldly: "Please believe that the Eighth Camp of the Suwei Guard will be able to find out the truth and will never be wronged."

"Since you have your promise, I believe it."

Shangguan Sheng continued: "Also, from today until the election of the emperor is completed, no one in this room shall be half a step away from the city, otherwise, he shall be dealt with by deserters according to military law."

"Haha, I won't even leave if I chase me." King Donghai pointed at the six palace maids by the wall, "They are included?"

Shangguan Sheng's face turned slightly red, "They don't count... and they are maids in the palace, so they can't even leave the palace, let alone leave the city?"

Shangguan Sheng glanced at everyone majesticly again, and saw that no one spoke, he left the room.

"For the convenience of contact, this room will be dedicated." Huangfu Yi pointed at his feet, "Everyone will get a certificate. As long as the palace gate is not closed, you can come here to find me at any time, or leave a letter or message, and I will bring it to the Queen Mother word for it."

Huangfu Yi took a few steps back and faced the four princes and grandsons, bowed and said, "The new emperor of Great Chu will surely be born among you."
