Queen of the Black Phoenix

Chapter 339 Forcing the Palace
"The weather this winter is really good. It has been sunny for many days in a row, and today is another fine day."

"Yes, it rains in winter and freezes the dog to death. It's fine if it doesn't rain."

In the long queue to enter the imperial court, two young officials were talking softly.

Compared with the majesty and solemnity of Shen Guo's early dynasty, Xi Guo seemed more relaxed and lively.

Moreover, Xiguo's court meeting is not that early, and there is no need to hold it every day.

Usually every two days, a court meeting.

There will be a court meeting every day for urgent matters.

Generally, such times are relatively rare.

In recent years, the weather in Xi Country has been smooth, and there has been no major turmoil in the country.

Very comfortable.

The slight problem is that there is too much rain this year, and a lot of old corpses hidden deep in the underground river in the city have been washed out, and it is hard to tell whose family it is.

The people who spoke in the court were basically people from the four major families.

The patriarchs of the four major families all have positions and are called monarchs.

The power is equivalent to the prime minister of other countries.

Generally, if four gentlemen agree or three agree with one matter, it is basically accomplished.

Of course, after the Meng family took refuge in the Yin family, the situation where the four major families restrained each other changed somewhat.

If the Yin family does not agree to something, it will almost never pass.

But today, Xu Yisheng, the Patriarch of the Xu family who was at the forefront of the court, looked calm as usual, but his hands in the big sleeves of his gentleman's clothes were shaking with excitement.

He forced himself to be calm so that he could barely control his expression.

Today is an important day.

The seventh day of the winter month.

Xu Yisheng likes the number seven.

His birthday is the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month.

He was 27 the day he became head of the house.

The day he became one of the four kings of the Xi Kingdom was the seventh day of the lunar new year.

And today is also the seventh day of the lunar new year.

Today is destined to be an important day, a day recorded in history.

Xu Yisheng was so excited that he couldn't sleep for several nights.

From the time he received the message, to the start of operations, everything was in place.

If it succeeds, from now on, there will be only the Xu family in Xiguo.

The next history of Xiguo will be written by the Xu family.

He forced himself to enter the court calmly, but as expected, the seat of the dragon chair was still vacant.

The figure of Empress Gui is faintly behind the thin curtain.

Just like the usual court meeting.

First, the ministries reported their work, and the controversial ones were discussed.

Everyone thought that the dynasty would end soon.

An official from the Xu family faction stepped forward.

He is the Minister of Rites.

Xi Guo's officialdom is not as complicated as Shen Guo's, but it basically follows Shen Guo's model and simplifies it a little.

Of course, there is no shortage of necessary personnel.

Xiguo officials are more inclined to do things. There are a lot of things and a lot of salary, but the power constraints are relatively large.

"I heard about the illness of the emperor, and the death of the prince. For such a big event, the empress is still sitting behind the curtain. What is her intention?"

Then another official jumped out, bowed his head and said, "The imperial doctor in the palace died suddenly, Emperor Shen has not seen anyone for many days."

"Whoever said that my emperor died of illness, who would dare to curse my emperor." Empress Gui's voice sounded.

Suppressed with anger, hoarse and deep, in the court hall, a woman's voice sounded, which made people feel very weird.

Because usually Queen Gui only listens and rarely speaks.

"Chen, I won't talk nonsense."

A coffin, stained with fresh mud, was carried up to the court hall in a big way.

Empress Gui's eyes widened when she saw the coffin, she didn't care to sit behind the curtain and opened the curtain.

Everyone saw the real face of Queen Gui.

Good-looking, although not overwhelming, but the woman in the phoenix robe also has a unique flavor.

The end of the eyes is slender, the lips are thick, and the appearance is very charming.

There is majesty, sorrow and anger.

People can't help but want to feel pity.

The Patriarch of the Xu family was startled by such an idea in his mind.

Right now is naturally not the time to think about this.

It was his turn.

He said with a righteous face: "I know that the empress is overwhelmed with sorrow, and I lost my sense of control for a while, but the country cannot live without a king. I beg the empress to retreat behind the curtain and canonize Princess Fei as the princess. Princess Fei is the emperor." The only flesh and blood, and the most legitimate successor."

"The emperor is not dead yet, are you acting too hastily?" Empress Gui looked at the coffin on the court hall, thinking of her own emperor's son, the tears in her eyes were wanton and could not be stopped.

Some courtiers bowed their heads.

They don't want to see a woman like this.

Especially this woman is their queen.

But today's events are known to everyone who should know.

Everyone only thought that the Patriarch of the Xu family was too eager and his appearance was too ugly. Everyone knew that Princess Fei was your granddaughter and Concubine Xu was your daughter.

Why bother to persecute in such a hurry, even digging out the coffin and lifting it up.

Even the head of the Yin family remained silent at the moment.

Remaining silent is probably the best support.

If you don't disagree, you agree.

It's just that the four major families are so powerful that no one dares to contend.

Even the Yin family was silent.

The Yin family was silent, and the Meng family naturally acquiesced.

Only the head of the Li family stood up at this moment.

He flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable, the courtiers persecute the master, the emperor of heaven and earth, courtesy, righteousness, honesty, and shame are all gone, so what do you want the princess to do?"

The four major families, the three major families all agree, and the Li family opposes it, which is obviously useless.

At this moment, the Xu family's face was full of pride, and they could no longer control their joy.

Because 80.00% of the people in the entire court bowed down and said in unison: "I implore the empress to confer on Princess Fei as the princess."

But at this moment, Concubine Xu and Princess Fei were also brought here.

Concubine Xu's appearance is still like a girl's, white and clean, with a gentle smile.

And Princess Fei was dressed in a gorgeous dress, golden phoenix and dragon show, wearing it on her body, her small body didn't feel uncomfortable, on the contrary, it fit her very well.

Such clothes are obviously not the norm in the palace.

Someone already did it.

Seeing Empress Gui, Concubine Xu took a step back as if frightened.

Then I mustered up the courage to go forward.

"Sister, why do you bother, why do you want to hide it from me and Fei'er, because the emperor dotes on you alone, I try not to appear in front of you, but such a thing really shouldn't be."

Concubine Xu's voice was soft, and she shed tears as she spoke.

She shed tears naturally and beautifully.

Princess Fei had a sad expression, but she was young after all, and she couldn't hide the ambition and firmness in her eyes.

Empress Gui looked at these two people, one was wearing a pink dress and the other was wearing a big red phoenix robe.

The tears on her face were not dry, she just sneered and said: "Now you know, you know that the emperor is seriously ill, Princess Fei, as the emperor's child, your father is ill, you don't want to wait for the illness, why are you dressed so gorgeously?"

Princess Fei calmly bowed down to Empress Gui, and then stood up again, her voice was bright and crisp, and clear.

"Father is seriously ill, and Fei'er's heart aches, but Fei'er is not only Father's child, but also the princess of Xi Kingdom. Fei'er is willing to take up the responsibility of Father, and let Father and Queen succeed him. Come to think of it, this is Father. Most wanted."

……

"No, this is not what I want. You don't respect my queen at all. How can I rest assured?"

A gentle voice sounded, and a huge body slowly walked forward with the support of a thin old eunuch.
