Chapter 709 Complete (3)
Gao Yuwang had no choice but to say: "The emperor has been on the throne for more than sixteen years, and he has always been diligent and caring for the people. Unless he is really sick and can't get out of bed, how have all the adults seen the emperor absent from the early court? If he doesn't attend today, the dragon body really can't support it." Well, after all, no matter how wise the emperor is, he is also a father first of all. How can the emperor not be angry and sad when the common man Murong Heng committed the murder of his father and king? He is a minister, but he doesn't even have the most basic understanding of the emperor. , Monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons, where will the emperor be, and where will the majesty of the heavenly family be placed!"

Gao Yuwang's words were so beautiful that Mr. He managed to force out a sentence after a while: "I naturally put the emperor in my heart, and what I want is nothing more than an understanding..."

"What kind of understanding does Mr. He want? Isn't the matter clear enough?" Before he finished speaking, Xu Jinnian interrupted him with a cold snort, "Mr. He is so arrogant and sternly speaking in the court hall That's all, for repeatedly embarrassing the emperor's personal servant, it is clear that he doesn't take the emperor seriously, and dare to say that he takes the emperor seriously, so what is the crime for being so wrong!"

Lord He was full of anger, and was about to say something again, when King Duan who hadn't spoken all this time suddenly said: "Brother Emperor, He Yuanxin has overstepped you, Brother Yichen said, it's time to pick off his flower plume and wear it as a warning to others!"

The eldest prince laughed, "What the third brother said is true, come, someone, take off He Yuanxin's flower feather crown, put him in the prison, and wait for punishment!"

Then two Jinwu guards came in at the sound and took He Yuanxin out. He Yuanxin naturally refused to accept, struggling and shouting: "The minister refuses to accept, the prince's honor is the foundation of the country, how can you abolish the establishment lightly? The capital and the Duke of Changguo With hundreds of lives in the mansion, how can they be so reckless? The eldest prince and An Guogong wanted to imitate Cao Mengde and coerce the world to order the princes, but the ministers were the first to refuse..."

As he spoke, his voice suddenly stopped, as if someone had blocked his mouth with something, but what he just said was like a seed that had sprouted and was sprinkled into fertile soil, and it quickly grew into a A towering tree, with luxuriant branches and leaves, can never be eradicated.

Both the eldest prince and Xu Jinnian were a little distraught, but if they ordered He Yuanxin to be killed now, it would be a suspicion of covering up. The uncle and nephew had to act as if they hadn't heard these words. There is still a book to play, there is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat!"

Gao Yuwang agreed, and was about to sing and drink, when King Duan laughed first and said, "Theoretically, my father is seriously ill, and my ministers shouldn't bother me, but when parents are sick, it's also my duty to serve their children by the bedside, I don't know Brother Huang, would you mind letting my younger brother go to Fengyi Hall to visit the emperor father, and then please greet the queen mother?"

The Eldest Prince felt that he had accepted Duan Wang's kind affection, and it would be hard to say no if he refused, but no matter how stupid he was, he knew that the current appearance of the Emperor must not be seen by anyone else, so he said with a perplexed expression: "Of course I don't mind, but the imperial doctor said that the father should just rest at the moment, or, after a few days, the father's dragon body has improved, and it's not too late for the third brother to visit again?"

When King Duan heard this, he immediately looked lonely: "My brother just wants to show some filial piety, since the emperor said that the father should only rest in peace, then the younger brother will wait for a few days after the father's body improves, and then visit him. "While speaking, while everyone was not paying attention, he winked at his own people.

Then some of the ministers murmured in a moderate voice: "It's all right not to let the ministers see the emperor, but now His Royal Highness Duan asked to see the father, but he was not allowed. It seems that what the Lord said just now is "hold the world." To order the princes' is not groundless!"

Someone else echoed: "Everyone knows how much the emperor attaches great importance to the abolition of the prince. How could he abolish it overnight? Imprisonment for life is all... If you say kill, you will kill, it seems that you are eager to kill and silence, and there is no proof!"

Some people even shouted: "I will swear to the death to ask for the face of the saint, as long as I can face the saint, I will not hesitate to lose my official position and go to jail, or even die!"

Gradually, more than a dozen voices merged into one voice. Although the number of people only accounted for one of the ten middle schools in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the faces of the First Prince and Xu Jinnian changed drastically, and they were at a loss what to do.

In the increasingly tense atmosphere in the hall, a high-pitched voice suddenly shouted: "The Empress Dowager is here—"

All civil and military officials hurriedly responded to the sound and looked back, and sure enough, they saw the Empress Dowager Luo, who was dressed in a red nine-phoenix Guiyi court dress, and was surrounded by a servant, and walked into the palace slowly. Without losing dignity and grace.

"See the Empress Dowager!" All civil and military officials hurriedly bowed down.

Empress Dowager Luo didn't ask civil and military officials to stand up, but said loudly: "The Ai family is a female stream, and it shouldn't disturb the court, but since the Ai family is the empress dowager and still the mother of the world, then protecting the emperor is the Ai family. It's a duty! The Ai family heard about it in the harem just now, and all civil and military officials questioned the emperor's imperial decree. They refused to accept Ke'er, the new crown prince, and vowed to ask for the face saint. Now the Ai family doesn't want to say more, just want to ask In a word from all the civil and military officials, is it really out of a public heart that you are so arrogant, or is it out of your own selfish selfishness?"

After a pause, "Aijia doesn't want to care about whether you are out of public or selfish intentions. Where is Aijia standing now, whoever is not convinced by Ke'er and still insists on meeting the saint can stand up and Aijia personally I will lead you to face saint, Aijia wants to see, after face saint, whether the emperor can tolerate you group of usurpers!"

The dozen or so ministers who were clamoring to swear to death for face saint just now could no longer speak out. The eldest prince and An Guogong might coerce the emperor to command the princes, but the empress dowager is the emperor's own mother. How could she do such a thing? ?Even the empress dowager has been coerced, as long as they have no real evidence, then the eldest prince will take full advantage of the righteousness, what can they do, maybe they will accompany themselves in first!
A court meeting that was almost farce was coming to an end. No matter whether the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were sincerely convinced or forced to do so due to the situation, in the end they knelt down and kowtowed three times to the eldest prince and recognized him. The new crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The new crown prince Murong Ke couldn't help but be overjoyed. He thought that it would be impossible for him to sit in this seat again in his life, but he didn't expect that man's victory over heaven should belong to him, and it finally returned to him.

So as soon as he returned to Fengyi Hall, he heard that Empress Xu was still resting in the side hall, so he excitedly went to the side hall, in order to prove to his mother that he was not as useless as she scolded him in the past, and wanted to avenge his shame. It is also to share my joy with my mother.

But Xu Jinnian called Lu Mingfeng to the Wulang outside to talk: "...It was the eldest princess concubine just now, oh no, now the minister should be called the crown princess, and it was the crown princess who took the queen mother to the Qianyuan Hall in time? Fortunately, the crown princess made a decisive decision. Otherwise, maybe we are still entangled with that group of annoying flies at this moment."
