I am not Yuan Shu

Chapter 199 Your Majesty, please move!
Yuan Feng's sudden suggestion was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a thousand waves in Deyang Palace.

The atmosphere, which had relaxed slightly due to Liu Hong's punishment, became tense again at this moment, like a fully drawn bowstring that could break at any time.

The reactions of the two thousand stone officials in the hall varied, but all of them revealed the turmoil in their hearts.

Some people looked surprised and looked straight at Yuan Feng, as if they couldn't believe that the commander-in-chief of the coup would make such a suggestion at this time. Their eyes were full of doubts and uneasiness, as if they were questioning what Yuan Feng was trying to do. Wasn't he afraid of causing dissatisfaction with the new emperor Liu Li?
Others, after a moment of surprise, quickly regained their composure, and even showed a hint of understanding on their faces.

They seemed to have anticipated Yuan Feng's move, but they did not expect it to come so quickly. In almost an instant, Yuan Feng entered the role.

Most of these people were well aware of the cruelty and subtlety of political struggles. They understood that Yuan Feng, who held a large number of troops, was not a character that Liu Kui could easily control. Liu Kui's throne was based on Yuan Feng's military deterrence. Once Yuan Feng had any intention, Liu Kui's position would be in jeopardy.

As for the rest of the people, they were simply excited.

There was a gleam of excitement in their eyes, as if they saw an opportunity to rise to prominence.

Most of these people are followers of Yuan Feng and Yuan Shu, or officials who have close ties with the Yuan family. No matter what the new emperor is like, as Yuan Feng's allies, they naturally hope to get a piece of the pie in this feast of power.

And if Yuan Feng becomes more powerful and more eager for power, then naturally the tide will rise and all boats will be lifted.

They can also get a lot of benefits.

Yuan Feng's status and power are undoubtedly the highest in Deyang Palace at this moment. He is not only the head of the Yuan family, but also the commander-in-chief of this coup. He holds a large number of troops and controls the entire situation in Luoyang.

Although Liu Kui was nominally the newly enthroned emperor, he was actually just a puppet who was helped to the throne by Yuan Feng.

Just now, Liu Kui dealt with Liu Hong in a swift and decisive manner, showing a certain decisiveness and majesty, which made the officials in the hall temporarily forget the fact that Yuan Feng was the actual leader.

It was not until Yuan Feng suggested that Liu Kui go back to rest that everyone suddenly realized that Liu Kui's power was nothing but a castle in the air and the real decision-making power was still firmly in Yuan Feng's hands.

Most officials remained silent, each with their own thoughts in mind. Some secretly rejoiced that they had chosen the right side, some began to worry about their future, and some began to think about how to gain greater benefits in this power game.

As the nominal leaders of the court, Li Xian and Zong Ju's faces became extremely ugly.

They originally thought that after Liu Kui ascended the throne, the government would gradually return to normal, and they, the old ministers, would be able to continue to play their roles and fully display their talents in an environment without the constraints of eunuchs.

However, Yuan Feng's proposal made them realize that in this stage after the coup, the real power was actually in Yuan Feng's hands. They wanted to refute, but found that they were simply unable to compete with Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng's attitude was so firm and his tone was so unquestionable, as if telling them - there is no room for you to speak here.

Liu Kui's mood at this moment was even more complicated.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally sat on the throne he had always dreamed of and that a wonderful life in the future was just around the corner. He was preparing to consolidate his position by rewarding people according to their merits and winning over the ministers in the court, but he didn't expect Yuan Feng to ask him to go back and rest!
This made him feel extremely surprised, and he felt a strong sense of worry and a little dissatisfaction in his heart.

He was indeed very sleepy.

After the long journey from Bohai Sea, coupled with sleepless nights the night before and the night before, his body was already exhausted and almost at its limit. At this moment, if he was given a pillow, he would fall asleep immediately, and sleep soundly for a whole day and night without waking up.

But how could he rest at this time?
The next "sharing of spoils" meeting is the most important part!

He is the future emperor of the Han Dynasty, how could he not attend this crucial meeting?

Thinking of this, Liu Qi couldn't help but speak up and try to fight for his rights.

"Yuan Taifu, if I don't participate in what happens next, I'm afraid it won't be good. After all, I'm the emperor, so I don't have to care about trivial matters, but how can I not participate in such a major military and national event?"

There was a hint of tentativeness in his tone, even a hint of pleading.

He hoped that Yuan Feng could understand that as an emperor, he had the right to participate in state affairs and to decide the future of the court, and that he himself also wanted to stay here.

You brought me from thousands of miles away to Luoyang, going through so much hardship and taking huge risks, just to make me a puppet?
He still had a little hope, hoping that Yuan Feng was just joking with him, or that he would change his previous decision.

However, Yuan Feng's answer completely disappointed him.

Yuan Feng smiled slightly, his tone still respectful, but with an unquestionable firmness.

"Your Majesty, you should rest. You are in poor health and your old illness has not yet healed. If your illness worsens due to overwork and causes your body to be unwell, it will be a great sin for us! Let us take care of these trivial matters for you!"

Liu Qi's face gradually turned pale, his hands clenched into fists under his clothes, and a surge of anger suddenly surged in his heart.

He understood that Yuan Feng was telling him and all the civil and military officials in the court in disguise that the new emperor was just a figurehead, a mascot, and the one who could really call the shots and hold power was him, Yuan Feng!
What Eucharist is not well?
What do you mean by "I will do it for you"?
It's just an excuse for Yuan Feng to establish his own position.

Liu Kui's heart was filled with resentment and anger, but he was helpless. He expected someone to say something for him, but after waiting for a while, he was disappointed to find that no one stood up to speak for him.

There's nothing I can do. How many minutes have we just known each other?

Many people have not yet accepted the fact that Liu Kui became the emperor from the bottom of their hearts.

At this moment, Yuan Feng's voice sounded again.

"Captain Duan, you will escort His Majesty to the Zhangde Palace to rest. Make sure His Majesty has a good rest and recovers his spirit, so as to avoid disturbing the holy body!"

Duan Yu, who was standing aside watching the show, was stunned and didn't react for a while.

He didn't understand why Yuan Feng suddenly asked him to do this.

Don't want him to attend the next meeting? Is Yuan Feng planning to burn his bridges? Or does he have other plans?

Why should he be asked to do something that would offend the emperor?

Duan Ying hadn't reacted yet and the atmosphere was about to become awkward. Yuan Shu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.

"Captain Duan, your Majesty's holy body is the most important. If your Majesty's holy body is damaged, it will be the fault of all of us. Captain Duan, don't you know the seriousness of this matter?"

Duan Ying turned his head and looked at Yuan Shu in surprise.

He saw that Yuan Shu had a calm expression and was looking straight ahead without looking at him.

Duan Ying blinked his eyes, and in a flash, his brain, which was not very sensitive to politics, suddenly realized something -

This was the second letter of allegiance that Yuan Feng had asked him to submit in public!
The first one was handed in by him in order to escape from the eunuchs, as he was a subordinate of the eunuchs. From then on, he distanced himself from the eunuchs.

The second one is now.

Yuan Feng still didn't completely trust him, so he asked him to make a choice in public.

He obeyed the order and formed an unbreakable alliance with Yuan from then on.

He still disobeyed the order and openly opposed Yuan Feng, thus writing off the sunk costs invested previously.

This... is really a difficult decision!
After a moment's thought, Duan Ying made a decision.

"Sergeant Duan Xing, I obey your orders!"

Duan Xing responded loudly, then stepped out of the line, went straight up the stairs and walked in front of Liu Kui.

Liu Qi looked at the burly man in front of him who was as strong as an iron tower, and a chill rose in his heart.

Duan Ying's eyes were cold and firm, as if telling him not to resist, otherwise he would bear the consequences.

Liu Kui was not familiar with Duan Xing and had never known him. He was not sure whether this strong man like an iron tower would use force against him in the hall and make him a shameful emperor.

"Your Majesty, please follow me to Zhangde Hall to rest."

Duan Xing's voice was deep and powerful, as if announcing Liu Kui's fate.

Liu Kui opened his mouth, wanting to make a final attempt to save the situation.

"Duan Qing...you..."

However, Duan Xing had no intention of communicating with Liu Kui.

"Your Majesty, please move!"

"I...I..."

"Your Majesty, please move!"

"…………"

"Your Majesty, please... move!"
