Seeing the King of Shu who solemnly swore an oath with a firm look on his face, the expressions of the elders changed and they were frightened.
How can such an oath be easily exported?
Not being a descendant of the Sheng family is a treasonous statement! Not to mention in the Tian family, even in the homes of ordinary people, expelling a son from the family is a major event that shocks the entire family.
How domineering and domineering Queen Mother Yu is, she actually pushed His Highness the King of Shu to this level!
In the past, when Empress Dowager Yu suppressed Empress Xiao, it was a matter for the harem and officials could not interfere. Now it is about the throne and everyone can no longer remain silent.
Mr. Zhao Ge took the lead and took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "I have something to say, and I won't be happy if I don't say it! If there is any offense, please forgive me, the Queen Mother!"
"Only His Highness the King of Shu occupies the position of Emperor, so that all ministers can be convinced and the court can be stabilized in the shortest time. Otherwise, the people in the court will be uneasy and the people will be in panic."
"I sincerely ask the Empress Dowager to put the country, the country, and the country first. At this time, I will issue a decree to make His Royal Highness the King of Shu the emperor."
Elder Fang Ge also stepped forward: "I also ask the Queen Mother to issue an edict!"
Li Ge was tactful and refused to offend Empress Dowager Yu directly. He also spoke more tactfully: "The Empress Dowager has no intention of serving as regent, so she will not be offended by your Highness's words. Your Highness is still young, and if you speak inappropriately, the Queen Mother will
Why don’t you just laugh it off?"
Mr. Yan Ge also smiled and smoothed things over: "What Mr. Li Ge said is true. It is possible for mothers and children to talk casually. Why bother to quarrel over such trivial matters."
Mr. Lu Ge became more solemn. He raised his hands and said, "The Queen Mother does not need to take the joke made by Her Royal Highness the King of Shu to heart. Today's words will never be spread out of Jiaofang Palace. The Queen Mother's reputation is incomparable."
Half damage."
"His Royal Highness, King of Shu, is the best candidate to succeed to the throne. The Queen Mother is concerned about the stability of the country and the country, and she is also respected by her ministers."
"As a cabinet minister, I am also the head of the hundred officials. Today I came with a memorial jointly signed by all the officials, and I implore the Queen Mother to issue an edict to establish His Royal Highness the King of Shu as the emperor!"
After speaking, Mr. Lu Ge knelt down.
Fang Ge Lao and others also knelt down and said in unison: "I beg the Queen Mother to issue an edict to make His Highness the King of Shu the emperor!"
…
The tide is over!
Seeing five cabinet ministers over fifty years old kneeling in front of her, four words flashed in Queen Mother Yu's mind.
No matter how angry or annoyed she was, it was of no use. The moment the King of Shu made the oath, her advantage as the Queen Mother had collapsed and she was completely defeated.
This Sheng Hong is so cruel! He even said that he would not be a descendant of the Sheng family!
That’s it!
We have completely lost today, and there will be no benefit in continuing to struggle.
Queen Mother Yu was cruel to others, but even more cruel to herself. In the blink of an eye, she showed a happy and relieved smile: "These days, the Ai family has deliberately tempered King Shu's mind. Today, it seems that King Shu is real gold and is not afraid of fire. It is true."
It’s worthy of a great responsibility.”
"Who else can take the position of Emperor?"
"One day when the Ai family went underground and met the late emperor, they felt no regrets."
What a training for the mind!
With a few fluttering words, the previous delays and difficulties were wiped out. She is worthy of the Empress Dowager who has stood firm in the palace for decades!
Sheng Hong sighed secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but think of Xie Mingxi's instructions when he came.
"...You must never underestimate the Queen Mother! Even if you have the upper hand, you must be extremely cautious and don't let anything slip. After you ascend the throne, it will not be too late to slowly 'cross-talk' with the Queen Mother."
Today, he has the upper hand in words and gestures, and most of this is attributed to Xie Mingxi. Setting up ambush with words and digging holes quietly are Xie Mingxi's special skills. For today's scene, Xie Mingxi and him have practiced it several times before, and they also
Several countermeasures were devised.
Because he was well prepared, he was able to win calmly today.
As for the poisonous oath that shocked everyone, it was really nothing to him. Anyway, he was really not a descendant of the Sheng family. Making such a poisonous oath was insignificant, but it caused the Queen Mother Yu to be completely defeated.
Sheng Hong happily suppressed the complacency at the corners of his eyes and brows, and he and Queen Mother Yu went back and forth to show off the affection between mother and son.
"I didn't know that my mother had worked so hard and almost misunderstood her, so I felt extremely ashamed. From now on, I will be filial to my mother and support my mother until the end of her life."
"There is no need to say such unreasonable words between mother and son. The Ai family only hopes that you can support the great power of the Qi Dynasty and not bring shame to the father and brother who are sleeping underground."
"My son, I will obey my mother's instructions."
Empress Dowager Yu ordered people to draw up the Phoenix Edict and stamp it with the Phoenix Seal. Then the ministers in the cabinet asked the late Emperor to take out the royal seal and stamp it with the Royal Seal. This Phoenix Edict was announced to the world!
The Great Qi Dynasty changed the situation.
…
News from the palace spread very quickly.
Within an hour, everyone knew about this incident.
Concubine Mei, who had been recuperating in Hanxiang Palace, soon received the shocking good news. At first, her face was full of ecstasy, and soon she burst into tears.
Twelve years ago, she lost her biological daughter. She reluctantly forced her son to dress up as a woman, hoping that her son would survive.
The sorrow, anger, helplessness, desolation and despair of that year are still vivid in my mind. It seems that in just a blink of an eye, her son has grown up and become the king of Shu. Now, he is about to sit on the dragon throne again...
The great joy was mixed with excitement, disbelief and fear for Queen Mother Yu. All these complexities were inhumane.
Eventually they turned into tears, slowly falling from the corners of his eyes.
Qin Se could quite understand the complex emotions in Mei Taifei's heart, and comforted her in a low voice: "What happened in the past is in the past. Your Highness suffered a lot when he was young, and now he has finally come to the end of the hardships. God has not treated His Highness poorly. The Dowager Empress, too.
It’s over.”
Concubine Mei wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said with red eyes: "It's okay to say such things in front of me, but you must not say them outside. If it gets to the ears of the Queen Mother, it will be bad.
"
Empress Dowager Yu had accumulated a lot of prestige, and Qin Se was also quite frightened. She lowered her voice a little and said, "Yes, I must be extra cautious and careful."
At this moment, a palace maid came to report: "Concubine Qi, Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian and Concubine Jing are here to congratulate you."
If you want to say congratulations, you should go to Fulin Palace. Why come to Hanxiang Palace?
Concubine Mei was a bit weak, but not stupid. After thinking about it for a while, she understood.
Concubine Xian and Concubine Jing were worried about the life and death of King Lu and King Min every day. Now that the throne was certain, she wanted to work on her, hoping that Sheng Hong would let King Lu and King Min go.
Concubine Mei didn't want her son to be known as a murderer, nor did she want King Lu and King Min to remain alive and become a trouble for the new emperor, so she simply gave the order: "Just say that I am unwell, and I don't want to pass on the illness."
Anyone, please ask the two concubines to go back!"
After the palace maid stepped back, Concubine Mei sighed quietly.
