Yuan Tai'an is an old minister in the court, and he understands the sinister situation in the palace, and the other party Qi does not trust him, afraid that he will do something to the eldest prince, so as soon as he came out of the emperor's bedroom, he immediately said to the ministers kneeling outside: "The emperor has died, and it is useless for me to kneel here, Fang Qi will propose to let the courtiers decide the throne in the early court tomorrow." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info I have to act quickly, otherwise the eldest prince may ......"

There is no need to finish speaking, the people here are all old ministers, they are all human spirits, a few people will make plans in three or two, Yuan Tai'an must first contact the Southwest Army and the Southeast Army, no matter whether the emperor's edict is true or not, he must carry it out.

But the situation was not as easy as they thought, and the ministers could not enter the harem at will, unless summoned by the emperor, the palace concubine, or the prince.

Therefore, the two ministers who went to see the eldest prince could only obediently wait for the transmission. And Fang Qi would so unscrupulously agree to let the ministers discuss the issue of whether the eldest prince would succeed to the throne tomorrow morning, naturally he would not be without precautions.

Although he himself can't enter and leave the harem at will, but the father-in-law around the emperor can, Gonggong Li is already a member of Fang Qiyi's family, and when those old ministers are still waiting for the queen to summon him, Gonggong Li has already sent someone to poison the tea in the eldest prince's bedroom according to Fang Qi's instructions.

That kind of poison will not attack immediately, and it will not be poisoned by drinking tea alone, but with incense. Almost all palaces in the palace have the habit of using incense burners to smoke incense, and the prince's bedroom is no exception.

Fang Qi had already made a plan, and he had investigated what incense was used in the Mingde Hall of the Great Prince. Recently, the eldest prince often cries at night, or is awakened by nightmares, and the palace maids of Mingde Palace have lit incense for the eldest prince in these nightclubs.

With the power of Gonggong Li in the harem, I am afraid that no one can match it except the queen, so the poisoning thing is done unknowingly.

When the queen summoned the two old ministers, she had learned the news of the emperor's death, and she was not shocked, after all, as the queen, the emperor had been poisoned for a long time, she would not know, grief was inevitable, but her grief was not deep, although she was the crown princess when Xuanyuan Yu was still the prince, but if she was chosen by Xuanyuan Yu, it was better to say that the emperor made a choice for the prince, because her mother's power was not deep in the court, and the emperor did not want her relatives to interfere in politics, so he chose her.

After Xuanyuan Yu ascended the throne, although he also made her the queen and gave birth to the eldest prince, he always respected her like a guest, but fortunately, he did the same for other concubines, and he did not particularly favor any concubine.

Xuanyuan Yu can be said to put all his heart and soul on being a good emperor, although his temperament became more and more tyrannical after ascending the throne, he has to be said to be an emperor who works hard.

The Shengxing Dynasty was already rich, so after Xuanyuan Yu ascended the throne, he focused on the achievements in military defense, the development of cavalry, the study of the art of war, and the formation of formations.

He really didn't think about the establishment of the crown prince, firstly, the two princes were still too young to see which was better or worse, and secondly, before the poisoning, he never felt that he would have premature aging of the dragon body, and after the poisoning, he always thought that he could remove the toxin, but later the poisoning deepened, and he was restrained by Fang Qi, and he began to have another thought.

If you let your emperor succeed to the throne, although the Shengxing Dynasty can still continue, but Fang Qi's power is growing, and he will not let go of this opportunity to seek the throne, even if the emperor succeeds to the throne smoothly, he still needs the assistance of the minister, if the auxiliary minister does not belong to the queen, it is not the power of Fang Qi, then it is okay, but this is impossible, the power will definitely fall into the relatives or Fang Qi.

At that time, the prosperous dynasty will also be equivalent to the existence of the name only, and even more so, it will directly change the dynasty.

The greater Fang Qi's power developed, the more Xuanyuan Yu felt that it was his own retribution, if it weren't for the deterioration of the relationship between himself and the imperial sister Liuxia, he would not have come to this point.

He suddenly thought, isn't it true that those who have the Heavenly Machine Star will win the world? Yasukuni has already obtained the Heavenly Machine Star, so let him see if this world will be Yasukuni's!

So he never set up a crown prince, even if he knew that he was not far from death, and it was difficult for the army of the Shengxing Dynasty to turn defeat into victory, he did not make a way back.

He was unwilling to fail, but he was also helpless, perhaps until he died, he felt that what he lost to was providence.

"The ministers are here to discuss with Niangniang about the succession of the eldest prince. "The Ministry of Rites Shangshu saw the queen, and he said it bluntly.

After the queen learned that the emperor had died, she naturally thought about the succession to the throne. It stands to reason that if there is a crown prince, it is natural that the prince will succeed to the throne, but now that there is no crown prince, then her emperor will be the first candidate for the throne.

From queen to queen mother......

When she gave birth to the prince, of course she thought about this problem, and she has been planning to make her emperor the crown prince for the past two years, but the emperor has come to her only a handful of times, and her temperament is impermanent.

Now I don't need to talk about it.

"What is the situation in the court?" Zhuang Rongxuan asked.

Zhuang Rongxuan is the queen, but her father is still only a waiter in the Ministry of Works, she is not favored as a queen, and the former emperor and the emperor deliberately suppressed the power of relatives, so although she has heard about the affairs of the court, she does not know deeply.

"Please have no worries, although Fang Qi's power is growing, but it is not enough to control the government, she has agreed to discuss the throne with the courtiers tomorrow morning, and the ministers will go all out to support the eldest prince to ascend to the throne!"

Zhuang Rongxuan said with a smile: "This palace has thanked you here, after the emperor ascended the throne, he will worship the six Shangshu masters as teachers, and I hope that you will jointly assist the emperor." ”

"The ministers will obey the decree. Lord Rite said: "However, the ministers are worried about the safety of the eldest prince, and it is impossible for Fang Qi to take no action on his side, and the ministers are afraid that it will be unfavorable to the eldest prince." ”

The Mingde Palace is all the henchmen of the palace, no matter how powerful it is, it can't reach into the Mingde Palace.

Zhuang Rongxuan was full of confidence, but she didn't know that Fang Qi had already buried a secret stake in the Mingde Palace.

After nightfall, the queen accompanied the prince to dinner, and after checking the status of his calligraphy, she asked the palace maid to serve the prince to sleep.

In the afternoon, the eldest prince had already drunk the tea mixed with poison, and the tea had already been disposed of by Fang Qi's hidden son, and the palace maid Qing'er who served the eldest prince tonight was the queen's person, but she did not suspect that any palace maid in the palace would naturally not go out of her way to inspect the tea, and the tea would naturally be replaced if it was cold from afternoon to evening, so everything could be described as unaware.

As usual, after the eldest prince fell asleep, Qing'er lit incense in the incense burner, and then went to rest outside.

During the third watch, Qing'er suddenly heard the eldest prince crying loudly, thinking that the eldest prince was having a nightmare again, so she hurriedly went in to investigate, but she didn't want to see the eldest prince's white and ruddy little face blue.

Qing'er screamed, and hurriedly left the palace to order someone to ask for a doctor and inform the queen.

When the imperial doctor from the Tai Hospital arrived, the eldest prince was already out of breath.

As soon as the queen stepped into the Mingde Palace and learned the news, her eyes were dark, and the palace maid behind her quickly held on to her.

"!"

Zhuang Rongxuan shouted hatefully: "Check! Check for me! Who is my son!"
