Her Majesty the Queen

Chapter 269
When Feng Lin came to Tongde Hall, all civil and military officials were present.Thinking about it, it must be because of the canonization of the princess mentioned by the empress yesterday.

The arrival of Feng Lin attracted the attention of all the ministers.Among them, the Fenglin faction headed by Prime Minister Zuo all looked at Fenglin unanimously, as if hesitating to speak.Feng Lin knew in his heart that the order he conveyed to Prime Minister Zuo through Yue Yun yesterday was really unbelievable.

After all, who would hand over the easily-obtained position of Empress Dowager to others?
Feng Lin walked into the kneeling group of officials, she didn't look at the left minister and everyone's suspicious eyes, but smiled at the extremely ugly Feng Jin: "Did Huang Jie sleep well last night?"

Others couldn't understand the meaning of Feng Lin's words, but Feng Jin knew it very clearly.Last night she sent people to assassinate Mu Bai, but Feng Lin threw the people she sent back to the mansion.And she still can't shake it out.If the queen knew about it, she might really have no room to turn around.

Therefore, she could only show a very false smile, and replied: "Don't worry about the imperial sister, my king slept well."

Feng Lin didn't continue talking, but just laughed it off.

After a while like this, the voice of the female officer's summons came from the Tongde Hall.

A group of ministers filed in under the leadership of Feng Lin and Feng Jin.After saluting the queen, yesterday's topic was picked up again.

The empress glanced at the ministers, and said, "I wonder who you think will be the crown princess of the Beiyue Dynasty after you have considered it?" After finishing speaking, the empress looked back and forth among the ministers, and finally fell on the right minister. .She continued: "Your Prime Minister, tell me first."

Being named by the empress, the right minister naturally couldn't postpone it.He secretly glanced at Feng Jin, took two steps forward, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I think that His Royal Highness King Jin is the eldest daughter of the emperor, and she really deserves her name as the princess of the Beiyue Dynasty."

The queen nodded, but she didn't know if she accepted her opinion.After asking the right minister, the queen moved the queen to the other side. She stared at the left minister and said, "What do you think, the left minister?"

Zuo Xiang's son, Yue Yun, is Feng Lin's husband-in-law, and she herself supports Feng Lin very much.So her answer has almost no suspense for Fengjinyi faction.

However, what Prime Minister Zuo said was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

She cupped her hands and said, "Your Majesty, after a night of deliberation, I finally decided to support King Jin as my Empress Dowager in Beiyue."

When Prime Minister Zuo said this, not only Feng Jin was shocked, but even the empress was involuntarily stunned.She obeyed Feng Lin's words and dragged on all night because she was sure that Prime Minister Zuo would support Feng Lin.But she never thought that even the left minister would turn against him after one night.

what happened?The queen's first reaction was, did Feng Jin use some method to force the prime minister to submit?But soon, she dismissed the idea.With Zuoxiang's temperament, she might not give in even if someone put a knife on her neck.

That is the case, then there is only one possibility.The person who made her turn against her was not Feng Jin, but Feng Lin.Only she can make Zuo Xiang change his mind.

Thinking of this, the queen subconsciously glanced at Feng Lin.She lowered her head, as if she had no interest in the current topic.Feng Lin's appearance made the Queen even more determined that Prime Minister Zuo was ordered by her to turn against him temporarily.

Even Prime Minister Zuo supported Feng Jin, so naturally the other courtiers need not say more.The Queen's gaze turned cold all of a sudden, but she didn't know if it was because Feng Lin made this decision arbitrarily, or because of something else.

She stared at Feng Lin for a while, and finally withdrew her gaze. She raised her voice and continued to chase: "I don't know what other loves are thinking?"

Sure enough, not as expected by the Queen.The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty replied without exception: "The ministers and others originally supported His Royal Highness King Jin to become my princess Beiyue."

The loud voice echoed throughout the Tongde Hall for a long time.

Under the main hall, only Feng Lin and Feng Jin were still standing, not moving.

The surprise came too suddenly, Feng Jin never thought that Zuo and others would support her as a princess.Although she didn't know what was going on, but to her, as long as she could become a princess, other things were not important.

With the support of the left and right ministers, as long as the queen nods again, she can truly become the princess of Beiyue.When she ascends the throne in the future, the first thing she will get rid of is Feng Lin.

Feng Jin set her hopeful eyes on the empress above the main hall, since the civil and military of the whole court supported her, then the empress should not object.

However, her joy did not last long.Because the next moment, she heard the Queen's voice coming from above, and the words in it tore her dream to pieces. "Today, Dongling is still raging on the border of our country. It is too early to appoint a crown daughter. Let's discuss it in a few days!"

Feng Lin didn't have any idea about the position of the Crown Princess, the reason why she ordered Zuo Ping and other ministers to support Feng Jin was to force the Queen to register Feng Jin as the Crown Princess.But how could she have thought that the empress would use this excuse to delay the appointment of the princess.

On the surface, it seems that the Empress has left the position of the Empress to Feng Lin.But only Feng Lin himself knew that what the empress did was nothing more than pushing her further into the cusp of the storm.

Feng Lin didn't think it was a love for her.Instead, she has a feeling.The queen's purpose of doing this is not for her, but for other people or things she doesn't know.

Of course, this is just speculation.Feng Lin did not have any evidence.It was precisely because of this that she had no choice but to be the queen's pawn.

The entire hall fell silent at this moment.No one spoke or answered.It was clearly a matter of certainty, and none of them thought that the Queen would retort at this time.

In fact, Feng Jin was naturally the most disappointed.To say I was disappointed might be an understatement.For her, this should be deep despair.She looked at the queen with some desolation, her eyes seemed to ask, why does Fenglin have to be there?Obviously both of them are her daughters, but why does she want to leave the world of Beiyue to Fenglin?

Sensing Feng Jin's gaze, the queen didn't look at her, but fixedly looked at Feng Lin, her face a bit ugly.

As Feng Jin spoke, the Queen's gaze shifted to Feng Lin who was standing not far to her left.Her gaze suddenly changed from sadness to resentment.It was all because of Fenglin that the empress could not see her existence.She was going to kill her, whatever the cost.

Feng Lin lowered her head, her black hair blocked her appearance.She smiled bitterly silently.Was she self-defeating today, or was it the reason why the Empress insisted on letting her break with Feng Jin completely?But no matter what kind it is, Feng Jin will only get rid of herself more vigorously.
