I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 44 We don't have to take the initiative to leave, but we must be prepared for both situations! (Please give me some recommendation votes)

Those who were invited by Feng Huai were all old ministers loyal to the late emperor.

They have been officials for many years, have many disciples and great power, and are all powerful people.

In the court, these are all senior officials. Anyone who wants to touch them must consider whether he is qualified.

No one present today expected that the Minister of Justice Feng Huai would actually start to take sides, and he was on the side of the Second Prince.

It seems that the Second Prince must have promised him certain benefits, and coupled with his dissatisfaction with Li Chen, he firmly chose the Second Prince.

When Feng Huai said this, many court officials present were thinking: Feng Huai, this old fox, is not an impulsive person, and generally speaking, he will not do anything without confidence.

After the Second Prince Li Xian suffered a setback in the court last time, he would definitely ask his master for help.

He is the powerful sect leader who is famous in the Tiance Dynasty.

They have never come into contact with Ding Tian Shangren, but they know that there is such a person.

It is said that this person is not only successful in the Tiance Dynasty, but also in other parts of the mainland.

He is a truly powerful boss.

Now it seems that Dingtian Shangren has most likely agreed to help.

And Feng Huai should have known this, which is why he decided to stand on the side of the Second Prince.

If he estimated that the Second Prince was not sure of being able to deal with Li Chen, he would certainly not dare to take sides easily.

No one thought that the young Li Chen could be a match for Ding Tian Shangren.

Unless Li Chen can get other helpers.

But given Li Chen’s current relationship, who can help him?

Isn't this just a lonely person?

Many old ministers who attended Feng Huai's banquet followed his lead. After hearing Feng Huai's proposal, they simply agreed directly and began to look forward to a bright future.

There were also a few old ministers who were unsure, after all, they really didn't want to get involved in the fight for the throne.

They had worked hard to get to this point, and Li Chen only took away their privileges, but their main power remained.

They have been in contact with the new emperor Li Chen for some time and feel that Li Chen is not the kind of person who is very suspicious.

As long as you do what you are supposed to do, then the official robe on your body will be safe.

If you take sides, you are gambling with your life, which adds risks for no reason.

It would be fine if the second prince won, but if he didn’t, wouldn’t I be implicated?
Confiscating property and executing the entire clan are no joke.

Several court officials wanted to leave, but at this moment, they noticed some movement outside the door.

There are many experts in the Ministry of Justice, and Feng Huai has also trained many followers.

Most of these auras outside are people that Feng Huai prepared in advance, and they are giving them reminders.

Now, the court officials understood that Feng Huai dared to say this today because he wanted to tie everyone up on the same boat.

It was obviously not a good thing to offend Feng Huai at this time, so they had to give up the idea of ​​leaving and agree to stand on the side of the second prince.

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was united in their hatred of the enemy, Feng Huai took out the "letter of surrender" and asked everyone present to sign it.

Anyway, since you have signed this, don't even think about running away or betraying me.

If I die, you will die with me.

The drinking party arranged by Feng Huai is not that simple. If anyone refuses to sign, he will definitely not let that person go out alive.

This is a moment of life and death, and we cannot be careless at all.

Having been in the position of Minister of Justice for so many years, you must have some skills.

Deep in the inner palace, the Queen Mother's bedroom.

At this moment, the Queen Mother was lying lazily on her side on the bed, her overlapping breasts creating an amazing groove on the bed.

The thin gauze dress clearly reveals her graceful figure.

If Chu Ruoyan were here, she would probably have a nosebleed.

The Queen Mother likes the girl Chu Ruoyan very much.

She felt that Chu Ruoyan's eyes were very focused. She kept staring at her, as if she took her words to heart.

Because when other people talked to the Queen Mother, they either lowered their heads or avoided her gaze, giving the impression that they had their own plans.

Of course, Li Chen is an exception here. The Queen Mother cannot understand Li Chen.

Chu Ruoyan's eyes were very 'sincere', and her 'respect' for the Queen Mother was written on her face. Most importantly, Chu Ruoyan was a quiet child, and she didn't have the desire to show off.

I didn't say any awkward words of loyalty just to please her.

This made the Queen Mother feel that she was an obedient and good child.

Therefore, the Queen Mother and Li Chen reached a consensus, and everyone was happy about Chu Ruoyan entering the palace.

Just as she was about to rest, her trusted palace maid walked in quietly.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was still awake, he presented her with the secret letter from the Second Prince.

The Queen Mother picked up the letter and read it for a while, but she was not very interested.

The beginning of the letter was naturally some words of compliment from the Second Prince to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother could skip over these flattering words.

At the end of the secret letter, the second prince implicitly expressed his intention to return to Beijing.

He was testing the waters here, wanting to know whether the Queen Mother supported him returning to Beijing.

He could only make the next plan after the Queen Mother's reply.

Because the Queen Mother and Feng Huai are different, and Feng Huai is very dissatisfied with Li Chen, then the Second Prince only needs to paint a big picture to recruit him.

Besides, he was an old subordinate of the late emperor, and being loyal to the second prince was not considered a betrayal of the royal family.

In the past, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were very kind to Feng Huai and would visit this old minister during the holidays.

Now that the crown prince is dead, Feng Huai naturally likes the second prince.

Not to mention Li Chen, he is really not familiar with Feng Huai.

The second prince felt that it was not surprising that he was able to recruit Feng Huai, a senior official in the court.

But the Queen Mother is different. Don't forget that it was she who promoted Li Chen. If the Queen Mother's request is not excessive, Li Chen will agree to it to some extent.

The second prince's letter was actually telling the Queen Mother that I am not asking for your help, but please don't interfere with me when I take action.

If you want to help me, I will definitely give you the power you want after I succeed to the throne.

The Second Prince's approach is to create a gap between Li Chen and the neutral forces, and then win over those forces that dislike Li Chen.

The Queen Mother naturally understood the meaning of the letter.

The trusted maid asked, "Master, who should we help?"

The Queen Mother yawned and said lazily, "Compared to the second child, I actually like the sixth child better."

It seems that the Queen Mother still remembers Li Chen's "favor" for the hotpot meal.

The trusted maid nodded and said, "Should I tell His Majesty the news?"

The Queen Mother asked back, "Tell His Majesty, are you going to help him solve it?"

This sentence made the trusted palace maid at a loss for words.

It seems so. Li Chen is such a person that he will let anyone who gives him a problem to solve it.

The Minister of War has not returned to Beijing yet, which means he has not completed the task assigned by Li Chen.

If she said so, Li Chen would really let her deal with the second prince.

"So what does the master mean?"

Since she couldn't figure it out, the trusted palace maid asked her master directly.

The Queen Mother closed her eyes and said calmly, "We don't have to take the initiative to intervene, but we must be prepared for both situations and prepare more for Old Six."

Now the trusted palace maid understood that there were various arrangements to deal with each prince gaining the throne.

What the Queen Mother needs is Li Chen to beg her for help. She has a way to deal with the second and third princes.

But if Li Chen didn't ask her for help, she would definitely not do anything.

Her target is Li Chen himself!
Isn't it more exciting to hold a saint-level emperor in your hands than to gain more power?

Is there anything in the world that could be more enjoyable than this?

Even though the Queen Mother didn't say much, her trusted palace maids still understood what she meant.

In Tianyan Divine Sect, there is an independent attic that belongs exclusively to Li Xian.

His subordinates were reporting the latest situation to him.
