"Have you made plans in advance?"

Queen Mother Sun was sitting at the top, her face was gloomy, she was chewing these four words gently in her mouth, her eyes were breathtaking.

As early as the night when the army reported to Beijing, she had thought about the possibility of such a scene, but she never expected that the first person to say these words was not Yu Qian as she imagined, but

…

Fengcheng Hou Li Xian!

Exhaling gently, Empress Dowager Sun asked softly: "Marquis Fengcheng, what do you mean by these words?"

The words were very plain, but anyone could hear the storm behind them.

However, it was not just Empress Dowager Sun who had the turmoil in her heart. Upon hearing this, all the ministers present tensed up their bodies immediately.

In the end what happened?

All the ministers lowered their heads and thought rapidly. No one would think that Li Xian's admonition at this time was a temporary act.

Nowadays, the Xunqi are weak. As one of the few second-generation Jingnan Xunqi, Li Xian can be said to be the leader of the Xunqi in Beijing.

His words and deeds can almost represent the attitude of his relatives.

What are they going to do?

Following Empress Dowager Sun's question, everyone present focused their attention on Li Xian.

Being watched by so many people, especially the Queen Mother's sharp and almost murderous gaze, Li Xian still felt a lot of pressure even though he was prepared. He glanced at the unresponsive His Royal Highness, and Li Xian gritted his teeth.

.

do my best!

Whether Xunqi can turn over depends on now!

"Dong dong dong" made three muffled sounds, and a trace of blood appeared on Li Xian's head as he spoke.

"Blessed Mother, now that the emperor is hunting in the north, and the Ola army is pressing down on the territory, I have no king and no father in the government and the public, and I am in a state of panic. Although His Highness King Xi is the regent of the government, if the name is not correct, the words will not be obeyed, and if the words are not obeyed, the decrees will not be implemented. It is difficult to

We are united."

"Since the army reported to the capital, hundreds of officials in our court have different opinions and have been discussing one after another. The state is in the air and the government is in crisis. O'La has held the emperor hostage and repeatedly made excessive demands. We are limited by etiquette and justice. If we refuse, we will be disloyal to the emperor. Therefore, we are not loyal to the emperor.

If you bear the burden of the country, you will actually be in a state of panic."

"Regent and supervision of the country is not a long-term solution. First, the ministers fought with each other in the court meeting, and then the eunuchs ran rampant in the palace. This was all because the court had no owner. The ministers boldly risked their lives to remonstrate, asking the Holy Mother to take care of the whole country.

Create a new king!"

After the words fell, there was a "bang" sound, and Queen Mother Sun suddenly stood up, slapped her right hand heavily on the case, and shouted fiercely.

"You are so unbridled that your Majesty is still here. If you want to establish a new king, are you planning to rebel?"

Li Xian didn't say anything, but among the nobles, two more people stood out invariably, one was Guo Sheng, the Marquis of Cheng'an, and the other was Zhao Rong, the Bo of Xincheng.

The two paid homage and knelt on the ground, Guo Sheng said.

"Holy Mother, we have all been favored by the emperor, how dare we be disobedient? It is not our ministers who can comment on the great inheritance. However, the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty are above us, and they won the country only through a hundred battles and bloody battles. The thieves will kill me.

The army and the people have captured my emperor. We all share the same hatred and wish we could kill the thief ourselves."

"However, the thieves held the emperor hostage, and based on the emperor's order, they first asked for gold, silver, wealth, and silk, and then searched the property of the honorable ministers to comfort the army. To this day, they dare to deceive the imperial court with false edicts. If it is allowed to continue,

One day, in the name of the Emperor, he will coerce the entire Ming Dynasty to open the city and pay tribute."

"For the current plan, the only way to establish a new king early is to prevent the thieves from making mistakes and protect our Ming Dynasty. I don't dare to show any disrespect. This is actually a plan for the country. Please think twice!"

Zhao Rong also kowtowed.

"Please, Holy Mother, think twice!"

A total of seven or eight people came to the Xunqi side, and now three of them knelt down to remonstrate, which shocked everyone present.

Queen Mother Sun sat down slowly, her face was ashen and she did not speak.

Her control over the outer dynasties was really weak. Without using the army, the only way was to rely on the authority of the Empress Dowager to exert forceful pressure.

After all, she is not the emperor. From the perspective of her title, she has no power to deal with any civil and military ministers.

This leads to the fact that once someone ignores her authority and insists on giving advice, she really has nothing to do.

Just like now, if Li Xian and the other three people dared to say this in front of the emperor, they would have been thrown into prison long ago.

But Empress Dowager Sun couldn't. Not only couldn't she, but after she got angry, she had to sit down and discuss it with them. This feeling was no longer just suffocating, it was simply suffocating.

Glancing at Zhu Qiyu who was kneeling on the spot without saying a word, Empress Dowager Sun gritted her teeth.

What a good idea!

She originally thought that it would be good if Zhu Qiyu could pull Xun Qi over, but who would have thought that he would be so capable and let Xun Qi put in so much effort on his behalf.

After taking several deep breaths, Queen Mother Sun suppressed the anger in her heart and said.

"It is disrespectful to use ministers to discuss the king! Since you know this and remember that you are dedicated to serving the country, the Aijia will not pursue the case for the time being."

No matter what, since this matter has been brought up, there is no way to hide it.

On the Xunqi side, three important ministers came forward one after another and expressed their attitude. Empress Dowager Sun could not suppress her, so she could only discuss it carefully.

After thinking for a while, Empress Dowager Sun turned and looked at the civil servants.

If she wants to veto this matter, it is not enough for her to rely on her alone. She can only rely on the civil servants who have never dealt with her relatives.

But on Wenchen's side...

Empress Dowager Sun regretted for a while, but she didn't expect that she had just missed the mark after all calculations. No wonder Zhu Qiyu worked so hard to win over civil servants from the beginning.

It turns out that I have been preparing for today for a long time!

A quick glance at the ministers below showed that Yu Qian and Shen Yi could not be counted on. They had never dealt with him, and they had just been promoted by Zhu Qiyu, so they definitely had nothing good to say.

The good relationship between Chen Yi and Yu Qian was not very reliable. Empress Dowager Sun still trusted the cabinet, but during today's discussion, Gao Gu's words made Empress Dowager Sun a little more wary.

She vaguely remembered that a few days ago, King Tan gave the power of voting to the cabinet, and in all likelihood, it was also bribed.

It was only at this moment that Queen Mother Sun suddenly realized what kind of person she was facing.

In just seven days, he not only took away most of the military power in the capital, but also secretly enlisted his relatives to do such a desperate thing for him, and even extended his favor to civil servants and established his authority in the outer court.

Wisdom, skill, means, prestige, everything is in short supply!

She is a majestic empress dowager. At this moment, she wants to find someone to do justice for her, but she can't find one...

After scanning around, she finally could only focus on Wang Zhi and Hu Xi.

For this purpose, we can only try it on the two of them.

Hu Hui was the late emperor's minister who cared about matters. With this status, even if he did not speak for himself, he would not expressly agree with this matter. At worst, he would take a neutral position.

As for Wang Zhi, the leader of hundreds of officials in the foreign dynasty, Empress Dowager Sun has always been elusive about him.

After the army reported to Beijing, Wang Zhi had been delegating power and supporting Yu Qian, and even deliberately cultivated Yu Qian's influence on many important occasions. Therefore, Queen Mother Sun always felt that he might be a radical like Yu Qian.

However, Wang Zhi's attitude in handling Li Yongchang's matter just now gave Empress Dowager Sun a glimmer of hope.

If he, the leader of the officials, was on her side, things would be much easier to solve.

After pondering for a moment, Queen Mother Sun spoke.
