Everyone saw Yelü Chun say this,
They all looked at each other in bewilderment.
Xiao Gan glanced at Li Chuwen, stepped forward, and said...
"Your Majesty, please reconsider."
Li Chuwen immediately followed suit and stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, please reconsider."
"Your Majesty, please reconsider."
...
Yelü Chun saw that all the officials were following Xiao Gan and Li Chuwen in trying to take him hostage.
Recalling the day he ascended the throne,
He couldn't help but roll his eyes in anger.
She fainted.
Xiao hurriedly shouted,
"Imperial physician, imperial physician."
After Yelü Chun fell ill,
He was always accompanied by a royal physician.
The imperial physician saw that Yelü Chun had fainted.
He ran quickly to her side.
He took Yelü Chun's wrist, felt his pulse for a while, and shook his head.
"His Majesty's condition was already serious,"
"I was just so angry I almost had a stroke, I'm afraid..."
Although it is not stated explicitly,
However, everyone understood what the imperial physician meant.
When Xiao heard that her husband's life was in danger,
He couldn't help but glare at Xiao Gan and Li Chuwen, who were leading the group, with hatred in his eyes.
Li Chuwen saw the resentful look in Xiao's eyes.
He couldn't help but shudder.
Xiao Gan remained unmoved.
He was the King of Liang of the Six Tribes of Xi.
The Xiao family were also Xi people.
There is no hatred that cannot be resolved.
Moreover, the vast majority of the troops in Nanjing were under his command.
Even when Yelü Yanxi returned,
He wasn't afraid.
Why should we fear a mere woman like Xiao?
Zhang Lin said, "His Majesty is unwell."
"Perhaps we should have the officials withdraw for the time being,"
"Please have the imperial physicians treat His Majesty."
"His Majesty is blessed with good fortune."
"We will be able to get through this ordeal."
Madam Xiao was also at a loss, and nodded.
"Yes, yes, please invite other imperial physicians."
Xiao Gan saw that Xiao Shi was ignoring everyone.
He simply cupped his hands and said,
"I'm waiting to retire."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
Xiao Gan's generals also took their leave one after another.
Li Chuwen also didn't want to spend any more time with a woman who wished she could take his life.
He took his leave with the civil officials.
In the blink of an eye, the hall became cold and deserted.
Only one imperial physician and a few servants remained.
Lady Xiao looked at the dying Yelü Chun,
I could no longer suppress the grief in my heart.
She collapsed on the bed, crying.
That very night, Yelü Chun passed away.
Lady Xiao knew that news from the palace could not be kept secret.
He immediately dispatched people to invite all officials to court that very night.
Li Chuwen arrived at the palace.
Upon seeing Yelü Chun's remains,
He also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Yelü Chun was critically ill,
But after all, it was the emperor they had installed.
Moreover, he was highly respected in the military.
If Yelü Chun insists on welcoming back the Prince of Xiangyin,
The Khitan royal family will most likely side with Yelü Chun.
Now that Yelü Chun is dead
The Khitan royal family was then leaderless.
Although Yelü Dashi was prestigious,
However, he had only been an official for six or seven years and was still relatively inexperienced.
After everyone paid their respects to Yelü Chun,
Grand Tutor Zhang Lin then said,
"Has His Majesty issued an edict?"
Lady Xiao shook her head and said, "His Majesty has not yet woken up."
Zhang Lin said with difficulty, "There is no imperial edict."
"Where should we go from here?"
Xiao wiped away her tears.
"What ideas could a woman like me have?"
"You are ministers of the imperial court,"
"You guys tell me."
Chapter 1837 Who Will Be Emperor
Xiao Gan immediately stepped forward without hesitation.
"For the sake of the Liao Dynasty, I believe we should welcome Qin and resist Xiang."
Li Chuwen also said,
"I also believe that we should welcome Qin and reject Xiang."
As soon as the two opened their mouths,
Dozens of wings immediately echoed this.
Yelü Dashi and the other members of the Khitan royal family exchanged glances and then spoke up.
"I also believe that we should welcome Qin and reject Xiang."
"I believe we should welcome the Prince of Xiangyin back to the capital."
Amidst a chorus of voices welcoming Qin and rejecting Xiang,
Only Yelü Ning insisted on welcoming the Prince of Xiangyin.
However, he is not senior enough.
He also had no military power.
However, he was unable to overcome the opposition.
At this moment, Lady Xiao also understood Yelü Chun's helplessness when he was held hostage, and said helplessly,
"Then let's welcome Qin and reject Xiang."
Zhang Lin said, "The King of Qin is far away in Jiashan."
"Matters of national importance cannot be left without a leader for even a day."
"I believe that the King of Qin should be remotely established as emperor,"
"Honor the Empress as Empress Dowager,"
"The Empress Dowager, concerned with important military and national affairs, changed the era name and established a new system."
Lady Xiao declined, saying, "Let the King of Qin be made emperor."
"The Empress Dowager should be her birth mother, Consort Yuan,"
"How dare I overstep my bounds?"
After some initial refusal, Empress Xiao ultimately became Empress Dowager.
The reign title was changed to Dexing.
Power remained in the hands of Xiao Gan, Li Chuwen, and others.
.....
The next afternoon,
Li Chuwen and his son dragged their weary bodies back to their residence.
Li Chuwen didn't even have time to rest.
Then he took his son to the study.
He had a servant bring two cups of tea, then waved his hand and said,
"Get out of here. No one is allowed near the study."
The servant excused himself and left.
Li Shi saw that his father had something to say.
I don't even dare to drink tea.
He bowed and stood before Li Chuwen.
Listen to the teachings.
