Da da da--
Following the sound of footsteps, Chun Tuo was led by the jailer to the cell where the man was imprisoned.
Chun Tuo glanced at the man in front of him and looked at the jailer beside him in disbelief.
It was obvious that this disheveled man in front of him was completely different from the Imperial Censor Chao Cuo in his memory!
"Eunuch Chun, this is Chao Cuo.”
"Really?"
"Absolutely!"
"Alright! You may leave." Chun Tuo gestured for the young eunuch behind him to take the key from the jailer, then waved his hand to dismiss him.
"Open the door."
"Yes, Eunuch!"
Clang!
The cell door opened. Chao Cuo looked up at Chun Tuo and said,"Eunuch Chun, Chao Cuo's death is not to be regretted. I only hope that Eunuch Chun can persuade His Majesty to rule the country first!”
"Lord Chao, the previous emperor has already passed away! The current Emperor was the Tenth Prince, Liu Che.”
"What?!" Chao Cuo's eyes widened, and he froze.
Chun Tuo took the edict and said seriously,"Alright, Lord Chao, accept the edict!"”
Chao Cuo adjusted his state of mind and knelt on the ground."I, Chao Cuo, pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"Chao Cuo has assisted the previous emperor and is now pardoned from the death penalty and reinstated! Respect this!"
"Lord Chao, are you still not going to accept the decree?"
After hearing Chun Tuo recite the edict, Chao Cuo was so excited that tears streamed down his face.
"The emperor's grace is vast, the emperor's grace is vast!”
"I, Chao Cuo, thank Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!”
"Lord Chao, His Majesty wants you to go to the Xuanshi Hall immediately.”With that, Chun Tuo ordered his men to leave Chao Cuo's official robes behind and quickly left.
Chao Cuo followed Chun Tuo all the way to the Xuanshi Hall.
"Your Majesty, Lord Chao has arrived."
"Alright, let him in!"
"Lord Chao, please!" Chun Tuo gestured for the other party to enter while he stood guard outside the door.
"I, Chao Cuo, pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
As soon as Chao Cuo entered, he immediately knelt on the ground.
The last time he saw Liu Che, Liu Che was still the Crown Prince and was still slightly immature!
Now that they met again, his emperor aura was not weaker than Emperor Jing of Han!
Liu Che stood in front of Chao Cuo and looked down at him."Chao Cuo, you're the backbone of my Han Dynasty. It's a pity that you're dead. Are you willing to continue serving me?”
"The Emperor's grace is vast, and this guilty subject Chao Cuo is willing to serve His Majesty, even if it means being crushed to death!”
"Good! This secret edict is for you! Just be, Mo Wen!"
Liu Che took out a secret edict from his sleeve and handed it to Chao Cuo before leaving the Xuanshi Hall.
"Chun Tuo!"
"This servant is here."
Liu Che waved his sleeves and his dragon robe fluttered.""Court!"
……
Chao Cuo opened the secret edict Liu Che had given him. After taking a look, his expression changed.
In the secret edict, Liu Che ordered Chao Cuo to lead five hundred Black Armored Soldiers to Weiyang Palace's Qilin Hall and wait for the transfer order!
However, he had never heard of this Black Armored Army before!
Could it be that this was a backup plan left behind by the previous emperor?
Chao Cuo didn't dare to think too much and rushed towards the Qilin Palace without stopping.
Weiyang Palace was extremely large, with more than twenty halls.
Only Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty had the right to enter a few of the palaces. Others were not even qualified to approach them!
With a creak, the door of the Qilin Palace was opened by Chao Cuo.
Before Chao Cuo could enter, a fierce killing intent assaulted his face.
"Deng Deng!"
Chao Cuo retreated in shock.
Just now, he saw a scene that he would never forget.
The Black Armored Army stood in the Qilin Palace without making a sound, but the killing intent they emitted was several times more ferocious than the Imperial Army of Weiyang Palace!
Suddenly, the door opened and a soldier shouted,""My lord."
Chao Cuo steadied his mind and took out Liu Che's secret edict."His Majesty has decreed that from now on, you will listen to my orders!”
"Yes, sir!"
Chao Cuo led the five hundred Black Armored Soldiers and rushed towards the front hall of Weiyang Palace.
The imperial guards wanted to stop him, but Chao Cuo raised the imperial edict high and shouted,"His Majesty has decreed that all of you quickly make way!”
Once the imperial edict was issued, the journey was smooth!
At this moment, there were already many civil and military officials gathered in the front hall of Weiyang Palace. Tian Qiong was among the crowd, carefully sizing them up.
The ministers were very puzzled by the sudden morning assembly.
In the end, Liu Che was just a Crown Prince, how could he call for an early court session?
" Lord Zhao, the late Emperor has just passed away. Nothing has been decided yet, and the Crown Prince is going to be in charge of Weiyang Palace. Isn't this…"
"Logically speaking, the Crown Prince should wait until the coronation ceremony is over before he can take charge of Weiyang Palace! But this time, he suddenly asked Eunuch Chun to hold a morning assembly, which was hard to predict.”
"Lord Zhao, do you think that His Highness the Crown Prince feels that he is unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility and intends to announce his abdication and let the King of Liang ascend the throne?”
"Lord Jiang, watch your words! Watch your words! Talking about the people of the court was a great crime!”
"What are you afraid of? The Crown Prince suddenly announcing the morning assembly is against the ancestral teachings!”
Tian Qiong listened carefully, some of his heart was on the King of Liang, and the ministers who had opinions about Liu Che had been pulled into his focus.
"Hmph, let's see how long you can be arrogant! At that time, when Che 'er becomes the emperor, none of you will be able to escape!”Tian Kong thought to himself.
It was obvious that these people were going to be dealt with later.
At this moment, Liu Che, who was wearing a dragon robe and a crown on his head, strode over from the front hall of Weiyang Palace.
Around him, the attendants were all surrounding him.
When Liu Che stepped into Weiyang Palace, a loud shout echoed in the front hall.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
This shout caused the expressions of all the officials in the court to change!
His Majesty has arrived?
Shouldn't it be the Crown Prince?
When did the Crown Prince become the Emperor?
The previous emperor had just passed away, and the new emperor's edict had not even been officially announced to the world, yet someone wanted to be the emperor?
There were a few people in the court who knew about the existence of the late emperor's posthumous edict, but the situation was chaotic now. They really did not dare to say it until the last moment.
Who knew who would win in the final game between Liu Che, the Crown Prince, and the King of Liang?
It was a great taboo to take sides before the emperor was established!
Before they could figure it out, shouts of " His Majesty has arrived " echoed in their ears, and the footsteps outside the front hall were getting closer and closer.
Seeing this, Tian Meng secretly laughed and immediately took the lead to shout," Long live my Emperor! Long live! Long live!"
Many of the officials were furious and glared at Tian Meng.
However, the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be fired!
Helpless, everyone bowed their heads and shouted.
" Long live my Emperor! Long live! Long live!"
" Long live my Emperor! Long live! Long live!"
Liu Che stepped into the front hall, each step very slow.
The ministers who were high and mighty in the eyes of the common people could only kneel in front of him.
This…
It was the supreme authority brought by the supreme imperial power!
At this moment, Liu Che's heart surged. He truly felt supreme power!
Liu Che's gaze swept across the crowd. Step by step, he slowly and firmly stepped onto the golden throne that symbolized the supreme imperial power.
Liu Che sat on the dragon throne and looked down at the ministers. He felt as if he had everything under control.
Imperial power was supreme!
