Chapter 1292: The Battle for the Suzaku Kingdoms Throne (Part 2)
A gust of cold wind blew, and another piao appeared next to where Qi Baoer and Patriarch Xuanqing were sitting in rows.
Qi Bao'er was burying his head in the mouth of the big cup, using a spoon to dig out the contents under the cup. Without raising his head, he took out a full Buddha Jumping Over the Wall and handed it to Lai Piao.
Prince Renyin was not polite, he took it and started eating, "Is the palace preparing to hold a banquet with such a big meal?"
The person who replied was the ancestor Xuanqing who had finished his meal and was drinking tea. "But King Feng couldn't get food from the courtiers, and she was reluctant to give away the food from the treasury, so the people around her thought of harming her."
I want to invite you to hold a banquet in the palace, and then arrest the family members of the courtiers in the palace, and force those aristocratic families to open warehouses to stockpile grain."
The sea cucumber in Prince Renyin's mouth almost choked him to death, but fortunately it was so stewed that it fell down his throat and went directly into his stomach. "Does she think she didn't die quickly enough?"
To be honest, the current Phoenix King is just a superficial person, because no one can guess whether the trump card in her hand is still there, so she just uses the word "Jue";
But once everyone knows that she has no trump card in her hand, those people will definitely tear her apart based on the evil she has done in the past;
He also forced people in the palace to provide food for others. Isn't this because people who were originally their own masters joined forces to deal with her first?
Opponents, almost all the aristocratic families in the capital are now in charge of their own affairs. While dragging King Feng with them, they are also on guard against each other.
Ancestor Xuanqing sighed: "For King Feng, this situation is not unsolvable. Those people are on guard against each other. This situation is most beneficial to her. She only needs to release the grain from the treasury and she will have the upper hand.
"
Although Feng Wang is a fool, she is really not that stupid. She has people among the civil servants and military generals. She has not yet reached the point where no one can help her.
It is true that she did not pay much attention to food and did not have many things in her hands, but Emperor Suzaku left a lot of things in the treasury. In terms of food alone, it was enough for the entire Suzaku people to eat for a year or two, gold, silver and jewelry.
Not to mention those.
Not only the national treasury, but also the granaries in various local government offices have reserves.
Although some places have long been occupied by aristocratic families, there are still many that only obey the orders of the imperial court.
As long as King Feng opens the treasury to release food and stabilizes the situation first, and wins the hearts of the people and seizes the throne, after becoming the Suzaku Emperor, will he still be afraid of not being able to get food?
However, what is puzzling is that, whether she is stingy or just being biased, she only looks at the courtiers and aristocratic families and has no intention of touching the treasury.
Qi Baoer and Patriarch Xuanqing were watching here to see if she would use the money and food from the treasury to save the people. If she kept refusing, they would be rude.
Originally, they only 'taken' the private treasury of the emperor and the ladies in the harem but not the national treasury, for the sake of the people of the Suzaku Kingdom; but if their own royal family doesn't care about the life and death of the people, then why do they, who are considered enemies of the country, need
Care about them?
"His Royal Highness Feng Wang, something serious has happened to His Highness Feng Wang."
There was a scream, and a soldier with blood on his head ran in.
This way of entering was so special that all the courtiers who were fighting vigorously in the court instantly froze, and King Feng who was sitting on the dragon chair at the head also stood up in shock.
"What's the matter? Did someone break into the palace?" As he said this, King Feng turned around in a panic and wanted to run away.
If he hadn't been caught by the eunuch on the side, he would have slipped out by now and lost all dignity in front of the courtiers.
Fortunately, except for the two men on the roof, all the ministers' attention was focused on the soldiers who had just entered, and they did not notice the embarrassing side of King Feng.
Patriarch Xuanqing shook his head in disappointment, "This woman is not worthy of being an emperor."
Not responsible at all.
Qi Baoer and Prince Renyin both nodded in agreement, not as good as the eunuch next to her who was also shaking his legs.
The great bachelor who had just fallen to the ground suddenly suddenly rushed to the injured soldier with dexterous hands and feet, "What happened?"
"Returning to Lord Fan, the tenth prince led the imperial army to invade the palace and opened the treasury."
Hearing this, many of the courtiers' expressions changed greatly, but many also showed joy, and Academician Fan was one of them.
In an instant, his waist no longer ached, his legs no longer hurt, he dusted himself off, and looked at his colleagues leisurely, "The tenth prince is the son of the empress, the legitimate son of the late emperor, and the only legitimate son of the late emperor. The late emperor has not yet established the throne.
According to the edict, it is said that the tenth prince is the most natural prince to succeed to the throne, but he is just entering a palace, so how can he say anything bad?"
What about opening the treasury?
Why didn't you even mention it?
But before the other courtiers could say anything, Academician Fan had already flexibly moved his legs out of the hall and headed straight for the treasury in a clear direction.
As soon as Grand Scholar Fan moved, several ministers hurriedly left, most of them military generals.
None of the ministers are stupid, what else is there that you don’t understand?!
They looked at each other, no words were spoken, and it seemed as if they had said everything, and then they all raised their feet and left.
Good guy, in less than a quarter of an hour, only Feng Wang in front of the dragon throne, the eunuch beside her, and two civil servants and three military generals were left in the palace.
Crown Prince Renyin, who was drinking the last bit of soup, couldn't hold back a mouthful of soup when he saw it. He choked and coughed for a long time before spitting out: "How dare she seize the throne with her power?"
The two civil servants, the Minister of War and the Minister of Works, and the military generals are even more powerful, but they are all idle generals.
Regardless of whether she had private soldiers, she only accounted for five of the nearly a hundred officials in the entire court just now. They dared to seize the throne, and they were convinced.
The five people looked at the current situation with fear on their faces. They all looked at Feng Wang uneasily and then looked up at him, hoping that she would come up with an idea quickly. At least the treasury would be saved. That was their fundamental confidence now.
.
But Feng Wang was helpless now. She also looked back at the five people with an uneasy look on her face, as if waiting for them to come up with an idea.
Good guy, one person and two people call him "good guy".
I'm not interested in continuing to watch, so I'm going to fight against the treasury.
The tenth prince is very powerful, no, it should be said that the queen in the palace who is not fighting for anything is very powerful.
When one and two people floated to the front of the treasury, what they saw was a group of imperial guards carrying food out of the treasury's granary in an orderly manner. None of the courtiers came forward to make a fuss, and they stood quietly on both sides.
The imperial army left a passage for entry and exit.
The tenth prince stood on the side of the treasury door with a long sword in his hand. Unlike the Phoenix King who showed off "I miss the emperor", he was already dressed in a dragon robe. He was still wearing the plain green gown when he was confined in the prince's palace. His face was
With a slightly sickly pale color.
Although the ministers looked quiet, it was only on the surface and they kept mumbling among themselves.
After going around for a few times, the two Ah Piao finally learned the truth from their mutterings.
All I can say is that those who keep silent may be the most powerful ones.
It turns out that the power to command all the soldiers in the capital, including the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, is in the hands of the Queen.
As for whether it is because Emperor Suzaku trusts the queen or is the result of the queen's strategy, no one knows for the time being. They only know that the queen has handed these tokens to the tenth prince, and the tenth prince has now become the prince who truly controls the capital.
