If you can be an important minister of the court, there is no fool. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ji Yan, Tang Yuan, Xiao Can and others agreed to the queen's idea almost without thinking about it.

First, I don't want to clash head-on with the queen, those Praetorian Guards in the palace are not decorations, although Ji Yan and the others are not afraid of death, but they want to keep a useful body to serve the court.

The second is to be afraid of saints. Xiao Ye is a person who does not tolerate sand in his eyes, with a resolute personality, a strong desire to control, and a little cautious.

If he wakes up in the future and knows that Ji Yan and other powerful ministers have set up the crown prince and the country when he is unconscious, he will definitely feel that these old ministers are not loyal and selfish enough, and then hold a grudge against them.

It is not a good thing to be hated by such an emperor, at least he will be left out in the cold, and at worst he will lose his official position and lose his life.

Since the queen has no intention of appointing another prince and replacing him with a saint, there is no need for them to be strong.

After all, none of the few people present were the eldest prince or the fifth prince, as long as the queen could control the harem, they didn't care whether the emperor sitting on the dragon chair was awake or not.

Moreover, compared to the past when the saints had an overview of everything, Ji Yan and other cabinet ministers were more willing to control the power themselves, and now that the saints were 'resting', it was not bad for them to preside over the overall situation.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the snow disaster in Beijing has just passed, and the palace is solemn, and this year's Lantern Festival will be particularly deserted.

As soon as the Lantern Festival passed, the major yamen of the imperial court opened their seals.

Twists and turns from all over the country flew into the capital like snowflakes, and good news and bad news came to us.

The Cabinet, the Six Ministries, the Suncheon Mansion, and the Five Cities Terracotta Division were all busy.

Shoufu Ji Yan led several scholars to bury their heads in the mountains of twists and turns, the snow disaster in the north needs relief, the people in central Hebei need to be pacified, the spring ploughing in various places is about to be supervised, and the peach blossom flood next month must be prevented.

One after another, directives were issued from the cabinet, and the relevant departments such as the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Industry all became active.

A series of work, such as raising money and grain, dispatching troops and horses, building rivers and dams, and so on, was carried out in an orderly manner.

The entire Great Qi Dynasty did not mess up the order because of the emperor's absence, except for a few people who were worried about the throne, no one cared when the emperor would wake up.

The capital seems to have settled down, without the haze, anxiety and chaos of the previous days, the officials are busy, the people are rushing for life, the clans are all closing their doors, and the wealthy families are waiting to watch.

The turbulent undercurrent is hidden by the calm surface, and the capital has returned to its former prosperity and liveliness.

"Ahem, what a Ma, I really underestimated her in the past, but I didn't expect that in the face of such a huge temptation, she could really calm down."

Miao Zhen's face was glowing with a strange red light, her wind and cold were still not good, and her whole person was so thin that she couldn't look like it.

"Master, King Qi seems to have shrunk back again."

Xiao Yi said with a little disdain, "I thought he was a bloody person, but it was so useless to think about it." Ma does have brains, and knows that it is appropriate to be stable and not chaotic at this time, and there is no investigation of the emperor's poisoning for the time being. King Qi thought that he could escape, hmph, what a fool. He didn't want to think about it, if Ma was really willing to let go of this matter, why didn't she kill Zhen Meiren? But locked up in secret? It is clear that he wants to wait for the emperor to sober up and hand it over to him to deal with it personally. ”

Miao Zhen hooked her lips and smiled extremely coldly, "He is stupid at reading." Brother never regarded him as an heir, so he was lenient with him, but as a result, he became more and more naïve. Think this is a child's house, play if you want to play, clap your hands and run to the side to pretend to be innocent if you don't want to play? Hmph~"

Xiao Yi helped Miaozhen tuck the quilt and asked, "Then what should I do next?" Xiao Er came to report that Zhao Geng's injury was no longer serious, and he would be able to come out on an errand in about two days. ”

Miao Zhen smiled: "It's easy to do, you let Xiao Er give King Qi a mouth, just say that Zhao Geng has set his sights on him, and now he is secretly investigating Tieji'an, hehe, although this kid of King Qi has been a little stunned, he is quite talented in tinkering with crooked ways." Even I didn't expect his hand to reach the Iron Threshold. ”

Xiao Yi hurriedly replied: "Yes, my subordinates understand." ”

Only by continuing to put pressure on King Qi can he make up his mind.

Miao Zhen thought about it for a while, and said: "By the way, if you order someone to let out the rumors, you will say that the Queen Mother likes the Nine Emperors, and the Five Princes are very filial to the Queen." ”

A few more competitors, don't believe the boss, don't worry!

Xiao nodded knowingly, his eyebrows full of anticipation.

On the 17th day of the first lunar month, Li Tiezhu, the governor of the Governor of the Five Armies, led 20,000 soldiers and horses out of Beijing to pacify the rebellious people in Jizhong.

Xu Shanli, the son of Shouchun Bo, Liu Cheng of Yongenbo, Xiao Rulian, the general of Zhenguo, and Gu Zecheng, the second grandfather of Zhao Guogong, each led 2,000 people and a number of money, grain, cattle and horses, and went to Shandong, Jin, Hebei and other places to comfort the victims, and to clean up the chaotic people along the way and nearby.

The gates of the capital were wide open, and several people left the capital in a mighty manner.

Xiao Xuan, the prince of King An, led 3,000 men and horses and some money and grain to several counties on the outskirts of Beijing to relieve the disaster and purge the chaotic people in Gyeonggi.

"Your Highness, the prince of King An has already set off, and Gyeonggi has his 3,000 men, which is enough to block all official roads outside the capital."

The middle-aged scribe whispered, "The Xishan side is also ready, Master Jingxuan has promised to come to the palace to do things for the saint, his old man is a high-ranking monk, and it is normal to have twenty or thirty warrior monks around him to protect him......"

He babbled on and on about his own favorable conditions.

Seeing that the king of Qi was still hesitant, he changed his words and said, "Your Highness, if you continue to make decisions, you will suffer from chaos." Now that the Ma clan controls the harem, no one can contact the saint except her, and even the queen mother is closed. Not to mention that Zhao Geng's hungry wolf has begun to investigate, just say that the queen has held the saint hostage, if she wants His Royal Highness's life, she doesn't need to work hard at all, just an edict. Your Highness, don't forget, the crown prince is the one we have—"

King Qi was flustered, and there were too many rumors he had heard recently, which made him panic every time.

I want to do it, but I have a lot of concerns. Stop for the time being, and I'm afraid that the queen and other brothers will take the lead.

Looking back on how happy and confident he was when he made the plan, he couldn't make up his mind easily.

The middle-aged scribe said again: "There are also Xiao Wei's three hundred shadow guards...... Your Royal Highness, you are not trying to rebel, just a filial son who is worried about his father, but he is worried about his father's illness, so he specially brought a monk and a divine doctor into the palace to treat the saint. ”

Of course, don't worry too much about the hundreds of guards with excellent martial arts in the accompanying team.

"Ma has always been cunning, and she will definitely not let me meet my father easily." King Qi was still hesitating. You must know that there are 3,000 Praetorian Guards in the Forbidden Palace. With just a few hundred of them, even if they rushed into the palace, they wouldn't be able to kill the Ma clan.

The middle-aged scribe smiled slightly, "Your Highness, have you forgotten that in order to exterminate the chaotic people and provide relief to the victims, the cabinet has successively dispatched 30,000 people out of Beijing. Now that the capital is empty, there are no other men and horses except for the little soldiers of the Praetorian Guard. ”

If you don't do it at this time, when the army triumphs, there will be no chance.

"Okay, I'll go into the palace tomorrow—"

King Qi slapped his palms and finally made a decision. (To be continued.) )
