Chapter 422 A vision from heaven
Outside the palace gate, after the censor arranged by Shen Zhikang gave an impassioned speech, the people were all excited, and the voices calling for the Sixth Prince to be made the Crown Prince became louder.
In a corner where no one noticed, Shen Zhikang, who saw all this, raised the corners of his lips, as if he had already seen the scene of Ye Xuanrong being made the crown prince and ascending the throne as emperor.
But just when he was determined to win, dark clouds completely blocked the sun, and the originally clear sky suddenly turned into darkness. This astronomical phenomenon terrified everyone.
The day seems like night, which seems like an ominous sign no matter how you look at it.
Just as everyone was terrified, a golden dragon suddenly appeared in the dark night sky, and a prophecy flashed wherever the golden dragon passed -
The emperor's fourth son, Jin Anxing, ruled the world.
After these nine words, the golden dragon appeared in the sky again, bowed its head in the direction of the East Palace and left. A golden word "Qi" appeared under the prophecy.
The golden dragon is a sign of good fortune. Now it not only appeared but also gave a direct prophecy. The fourth son of the emperor is the current crown prince Ye Xuanqi, and the golden dragon predicted that the crown prince will not only prosper Jin'an but will also unify the world in the future. He is the true master of the world.
Compared with the previous ambiguous prophecy on the "Ximi" stone tablet that indicated the sixth prince's nickname, this prophecy is clear, direct and more convincing.
As the golden dragon left, the prophecy in the sky gradually disappeared. Then the dark clouds dispersed and the sun, which had been covered by the cloud, reappeared, and the sky became clear again.
However, the scene of public outrage just now had disappeared. Whether it was the officials who knelt down to request the abolition of the prince or the common people who begged for mercy, they were all speechless because of the grand scene just now.
If anyone mentioned the matter of deposing the crown prince at this time, it would be an enemy of God, and no one dared to take such a risk.
Shen Zhikang's eyes were filled with gloom, his hands were clenched into fists, and his whole body was shrouded in a gloomy and terrifying murderous aura.
He had already done this, but he didn't expect that they actually had a countermeasure, and they defeated him completely, leaving him no chance to fight back.
Ye Xuanqi was unconscious like a living dead. This desperate counterattack must have been the work of Song Wentian, Qin Xubai and Song Yunxi.
The feeling of regret that had not appeared for a long time emerged again. If he had not canceled the engagement and married Song Yunxi as his grandmother wished, then all the help today would be his.
When everyone was still struggling to recover from the shocking scene, the banished immortal Song Wentian appeared, followed by the four elders of Shengyun Mountain, headed by Elder Wen.
After Tao Zhengchong's death, Shengyun Mountain quickly added another elder who had made great achievements and was extremely talented.
It was the first time in history that the four great elders of Shengyun Mountain showed up at the same time, and the purpose of their appearance was very clear, which was to show that Shengyun Mountain, starting from the head of the mountain, fully supported Ye Xuanqi's attitude from top to bottom.
Elder Wen bowed to Song Wentian and then opened the scroll in his hand. This scroll was a manifesto from Shengyun Mountain denouncing the Sixth Prince Ye Xuanrong.
In short, the Sixth Prince Ye Xuanrong is disloyal, unjust, unfilial, and unbrotherly, and is unfit to be a crown prince. Such a person will not only destroy the Jin'an Dynasty, but will also plunge the people of the world into dire straits.
If people had doubted Song Wentian's original intention of fully supporting Ye Xuanqi because of his relationship with Emperor Qinglong and his preference for Ye Xuanqi, then the manifesto of the four elders of Shengyun Mountain denouncing the Sixth Prince had dispelled everyone's doubts and made them more convinced that Crown Prince Ye Xuanqi was the one destined by heaven.
Especially after Song Wentian and the four elders left, someone in the crowd said -
The prophecy on the stone tablet may be predicting the destruction of the country.
One word caused a thousand ripples, and everyone believed that the stone tablet that fell from the sky during the violent storm was a warning to the Sixth Prince that he was a king who would cause the people to become homeless and suffer in dire straits.
The situation was completely reversed, and the Sixth Prince's reputation was completely smashed into an abyss of no return, with no chance of recovery.
Shen Zhikang gnashed his teeth in hatred: "Song Yunxi, I will fight you to the death!"
The storm of questioning Ye Xuanqi finally subsided, and Ye Xuanqi's reputation not only did not suffer any damage but reached an unprecedented peak.
In the Chongzheng Hall, Emperor Qinglong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wentian, this time it's really thanks to you."
If Song Wentian had not observed the celestial phenomena and knew that there would be a rare solar eclipse today, not only would everything not go so smoothly, but there would be more panic, and the Fourth Brother and even he, the emperor, would be in greater crisis.
Song Wentian: "Xubai and Xier arranged it well."
[They want to use the warning prophecy from heaven to consolidate Ye Xuanrong's position, so I will use the same method to treat them, and use the same method to completely consolidate Ye Xuanqi's position, so that Ye Xuanrong will become a scourge that harms the country and the people and will never be able to turn over.]
Emperor Qinglong felt it was a pity that Song Yunxi did not enter the court.
But he was more curious about how the golden dragon did it, so he asked, "Xi girl, that golden dragon..."
Uh……
[How can I tell you that it is just a chemical reaction of ordinary white phosphorus? ]
Knowing that she didn't want to talk, Emperor Qinglong stopped asking and changed the subject: "Anyway, this time it was really thanks to Wentian's advice that not only helped my sister calm the harem chaos, but also completely eliminated the worries for me and the fourth son."
Song Wentian's expression was still somewhat solemn: "Xuan Qi must wake up, otherwise everything will be in vain."
Emperor Qinglong's heart sank again: "Wen Tian, Xuan Qi... will he be okay?"
He was really unsure now and could only seek confidence from his most trusted junior brother.
However, before Ye Xuanqi could answer, someone came to report to Ye Xuanqi that something was wrong.
The Eastern Palace was filled with gloom. When Emperor Qinglong and his men arrived, the first thing they heard was the crying of the Queen and the eldest princess.
Emperor Qinglong's heart sank to the bottom, and an extreme fear and anxiety came over him.
Entering the palace, the imperial doctors, palace maids and eunuchs knelt on the ground, and then the court envoy Tang knelt in front of Emperor Qinglong, his voice trembling: "Your Majesty, the crown prince... His Royal Highness the crown prince has passed away..."
The entire palace was shrouded in a gloomy and sad atmosphere, only the Linhua Palace was filled with joy.
Concubine Shen, dressed in red, danced seductively, but the palace maids serving beside her not only dared not watch, but their whole bodies trembled uncontrollably, with fear in their eyes.
A closer look will reveal that the red color in the Linhua Palace is not festive, but filled with a suffocating weirdness. The area under Concubine Shen's dancing feet is a never-before-seen formation.
Concubine Shen stopped dancing and turned around with a grim makeup on. She dipped her beautiful fingers into the blood-filled vessel on the formation column, and then stroked her lips with the bloody fingers.
