?Chapter 452: Chapter 452: As Long as One is Alive, There is Hope Chapter 452: Chapter 452: As Long as One is Alive, There is Hope Alas, the struggle of the Second Prince and the Third Prince was in vain.
The situation in the palace had been completely controlled by Jun Yuyan, and the Imperial Forest Guard obeyed his every command. With just one order, he could have both princes and other ministers harboring dissenting thoughts killed on the spot, cleaning up thoroughly.
However, such brutal methods were not suitable for a New Emperor, as they could lead to criticism.
As for what method to use, Murong Jiu was not sure. She and Noble Consort Yun were preparing the funeral rites. At the announcement ceremony, when the emperor’s death was declared, all the ministers would collectively support Prince Ling’s ascension to the throne.
The common people, upon hearing this news, were jubilant, as it was what they all hoped for.
Of course, no one laughed out loud. The Son of Heaven had died, and the entire country had to wear mourning attire and observe silence, as per the ancient customs left by the ancestors of Great Yan.
But privately, the people were all smiles.
In their eyes, the late emperor was like Ximen Qing, incompetent, cruel, and destined to be cursed in unofficial histories.
Prince Ling, however, had been a young War God, famous from his youth for fighting battles for the country, and shedding his blood for the national cause.
Add to that the schools, hospitals, and the Medical College launched by Prince Ling’s Mansion, all were beneficial to the state and the people, feats no other prince could match.
