Chapter 272
With the queen in charge, those imperial physicians did not dare to neglect, all the imperial physicians on duty ran all the way, sweating profusely.

The old ministers who were messed up on the ground were also treated quickly.

The queen looked up at the sky in all directions, a bitterness appeared on the corner of her mouth.

……

"Empress, now only you can come out and preside over the overall situation!"

Wang Zizhen and others immediately found the queen as soon as they woke up.

The queen frowned in annoyance, raised her teacup and took a sip.

Seeing this, Chen Guogong became anxious again, and quickly said: "Empress Empress, now you are the only one who can come out to support the overall situation. This court hall is about to be in chaos!"

The queen put down the teacup lightly, looked at Chen Guogong and said indifferently: "Isn't there still an old prince? You can go to ask him, why bother to find this palace. Why make such a fuss and force me to come out."

Everyone in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to speak first.

Chen Guogong sighed, and then said: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, Jingbianhou somehow had a conflict with the old prince, if we recommend the old prince to preside over the overall situation, I'm afraid that Jingbianhou will not agree!"

"Oh! Is there such a thing?" The queen chuckled, "If it weren't for Jing Bianhou who swore to guard him to the death, how could we sit here safely today! What conflicts can the emperor have with him? Can it be resolved? "

"This..." Chen Guogong was speechless for a moment.

He actually didn't know what happened. He had visited both parties, but unfortunately, no one said much.

"What? You haven't figured out anything yet? Then why did you come to see me?" The empress still kept a smile on her face, but the smile was a little more impatient again.

If these pedantic people were willing to support the prince like this back then, their mother and son would not have such a sad life in the palace.What's the use of looking for yourself now!
As she thought about it, she became even more angry.

If Princess Yunxi hadn't personally visited her the night before to persuade her, she wouldn't be here today listening to these people say these meaningless words!

"Your Majesty, the ministers are incompetent! This matter still needs to be decided by your Majesty! The emperor has fallen ill and is unable to do anything at court. The royal family does not have a prince who can do things, so I hope your majesty can nominate a person who will be in charge as soon as possible!" It was still Chen Guogong mouth.

Among this group of people, he was the most senior, so naturally he spoke.

However, what he didn't expect was that after listening to his words, the Queen kept staring at him with a half-smile.

"What's your mother's intention at this time?" Chen Guogong asked suspiciously.

The queen laughed loudly, "Chen Guogong, you are wrong. Whether there are any people in the royal family who can make things happen, you should know if others don't know!"

"This..." Chen Guogong frowned.Although he already had doubts in his heart, the empress did not say so, and he did not dare to say more according to the agreement with the old prince.

Although he didn't say anything, he ignored the excited gazes of the other ministers.

Zhang Zizhen was the first to rush out, "Master Guo, please tell me what you know! Now the arrow is on the line."

Chen Guogong waved his hands in embarrassment, "The old minister really doesn't know what your empress is up to! Please tell me clearly."

The queen put down the teacup, picked up the Buddhist beads that had just been put down, and said indifferently: "You really don't understand? Did the prince that Empress Dowager Chen gave birth to in the past really die? As far as I know, there shouldn't be any, right? I remember wrong Is it done?"

Her words were like throwing a boulder into a calm lake, and the crowd immediately boiled.

You must know that if the child of Queen Mother Chen is still alive, then he is the first heir to the throne!Today's Emperor Jing should be him.

And based on age, if the child is still alive, he should be the same age as Emperor Jing.

In this way, the current crisis can be solved immediately!

"Chen Guogong, is this true? The prince born by the Empress Dowager Chen is really still alive? Tell me quickly!" Chen Guogong didn't speak for a long time, Wang Zizhen was a little anxious.

"Yes, my lord, tell me quickly! Now is not the time to hide your secrets."

"You said it!"

Everyone urged.

Chen Guogong frowned and looked at the queen, with emotions that he didn't understand flashing in his eyes.

"What's the meaning of this, Empress?" He finally asked.

The queen fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand, and said lightly: "I don't have any other intentions. I think you should know if the matter is true! Didn't you come to ask me for advice? Now Ben Gong provided a piece of news, why? Are you unhappy again?"

"This, this..." Chen Guogong was a little speechless.

Wang Zizhen looked at the queen and then at Chen Guogong, and then said: "Master Guo, you have to tell us whether the child is still alive anyway!"

Chen Guogong thought for a while, sighed heavily, and then said: "Master Wang, it's not that I don't want to tell the truth, but it's useless to say it!"

Wang Zizhen urged dissatisfiedly: "When is this! Tell me quickly!"

After a while, Chen Guogong's old voice came out, "That child has been dead for more than ten years!"

"What? Seriously? This is no small matter!"

Chen Guogong nodded lightly, "That's true! The child and his wife died together more than ten years ago."

Everyone felt dizzy for a while, as if a basin of cold water had been poured down, cooling their hearts thoroughly.

"Chen Guogong, why didn't you tell everyone how they died?" A thick male voice came out.

Everyone turned around but found that Jing Bian Hou arrived at some time.Seeing him coming, the queen breathed a sigh of relief, she could finally leave.

Hou Jingbian bowed to the queen first, and then looked at the crowd.It's just that before he could open his mouth, someone came to him first.

"Master Hou, you also know about this?" Wang Zizhen asked.

Jing Bianhou nodded, and said: "I also knew about it not long ago. You can ask the old prince Xuan about the specific things, he knows it best!"

"What? This matter is still related to the old prince?" Someone asked suspiciously.

Jing Bianhou did not answer this time, but looked at Chen Guogong and said: "No matter how you say it, your Chen family's blood is flowing on him. If he gains power, it will be good for your Chen family. Why do you want to help that Someone hide this matter?"

"You don't understand! A gentleman promises a thousand gold." Chen Guogong held his head high, and the morale of a scholar was immediately revealed.

Hou Jingbian was dumbfounded.

The two said things that only they could understand, everyone was puzzled, only Wang Zizhen flashed a thoughtful look.

"Master Hou, Lord Duke, what do you mean?" Someone still asked.

Jing Bianhou smiled, ignored it, and said to the queen instead: "Your Majesty, I am very grateful to know that you have finally left the Buddhist hall today. If you get bored in your spare time in the future, I can ask my little girl to accompany you. "

"It's so good! Marquis Jingbian has a heart!" The queen nodded and smiled.

After receiving Jingbianhou's reply, she got up and left.

Everyone wanted to stop her, but Jing Bianhou stood by, they didn't dare to go forward for a while, they could only watch helplessly as the empress disappeared from their sight again.
