Mu Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the Empress Dowager Gao in surprise, he was just a polite remark just now, what did she mean by this? Do you really want him to go to Mu Jingnan?

As if sensing Mu Qingyuan's gaze, Empress Dowager Gao tilted her head, looked at him, and continued: "What? Are the four kings unwilling? ”

"......" Mu Qingyuan's pupils opened slightly, looked at the Empress Dowager Gao, and did not answer, his originally stretched eyebrows tightened again.

Gao Yueli's face also stiffened when she heard this, and she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, what are you talking about, how can Yuan'er leave Liangdu." "He's going to be the crown prince.

Glancing at Gao Yueli, Empress Dowager Gao said coldly: "The four kings want to be all this brotherhood, shouldn't you, the queen mother, be supportive?" After all, the Six Kings are also your sons. Queen, when will you understand the truth of the mother's world? ”

Hearing this, a trace of displeasure flashed on Gao Yueli's face, she turned her head to look away, but she was very annoyed in her heart, the Queen Mother knew that she couldn't do this, so she still said it like this.

And at this time, Qin Youzhi outside the palace ran in, he knelt directly on the ground, and said respectfully: "Empress Dowager Qiqi, the prime minister and others know that the fourth prince has returned, and now he is asking to see him outside the palace, and ask the fourth prince to preside over state affairs." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's thoughts also returned, and their eyes fell on the Empress Dowager Gao at the same time, and now she is the real master in this palace.

Gao Yueli and Mu Qingyuan both looked nervous, worried that she would really do what she had just said, but Mu Kexiang's face was calm, standing aside, waiting for Empress Dowager Gao's words.

Empress Dowager Gao glanced at the people around her, looked ahead, her withered face was full of majesty, and she raised her voice and said: "Since the Zhongqing family invited the four princes to act as agents for state affairs, it is naturally because the four princes are outstanding in virtue on weekdays. Saying that, she looked at Mu Qingyuan on the side, and continued, "That being the case, the four kings, you must not let your father, the mourning family, the Qing family, and even the people of the world disappoint. ”

Hearing this, Mu Qingyuan's face changed, obviously he didn't expect Empress Dowager Gao to say this, and looking at her face, it was obvious that she had high hopes for herself, so why did she say that before?

"As for the second prince, it's up to you to find the fourth prince to come back, you want to see people in life, and you want to see corpses in death, but the mourning family wants to see how presumptuous this evil obstacle is, just for a woman, even his father and emperor don't care." Empress Dowager Gao shouted at Mu Kexiang and said, her tone was full of dissatisfaction.

Mu Kexiang glanced at the Empress Dowager Gao, and then bowed and said: "The minister obeys the order, since the Empress Dowager ordered, the minister will retire first." As he spoke, he turned to leave.

However, in front, a man in armor blocked his way, he looked at him, his eyes were full of smiles, "In this way, it's hard second brother, second brother must find the sixth brother back." ”

Hearing this, Mu Kexiang glanced at Mu Qingyuan, "Naturally, the four kings can rest assured." As he spoke, he glanced at the Empress Dowager Gao behind him, who was also looking at him. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of mockery in his keen eyes, with a slight inexplicable smile, and he turned around and walked directly outside.

Seeing Mu Kexiang leaving, Gao Yueli was relieved, she looked ahead, snorted coldly in her heart, and finally sent this Mu Kexiang away, although she didn't think he would be much of an obstacle at first, but now, Mu Jingnan is dead, Mu Kexiang is out, this throne, Yuan'er is seated.

Gao Yueli's heart moved, and she stepped forward and smiled at the Empress Dowager Gao and said, "Queen Mother, are we ......?"

Empress Dowager Gao glanced at Gao Yueli, looked at her impatiently, and said indifferently: "The queen's mind is still on how to take care of the emperor, if you can't even take care of the emperor, I'm afraid your position as queen should also be replaced." Saying that, he said directly to Mu Qingyuan: "Since the ministers want to see you, you will go with the mourning family." With that, she leaned on her staff and walked straight ahead.

Hearing this, Gao Yueli's face turned pale, did she mean that she couldn't get along with her? Hmph, anyway, the throne is destined to be far away, and she doesn't need to put up with her for long, and when she becomes the queen mother, it will be seen if she dares to talk to her like this when the time comes.

Mu Qingyuan bowed his head, glanced at Gao Yueli, and followed the Empress Dowager Gao to the outside of the hall.

Outside the Zhengqian Palace, all the important members of the imperial court headed by Prime Minister Yun Mocheng knelt at the bottom of the steps, and when they saw someone in the Zhengqian Palace coming out, the eyes of the ministers were all bright.

Yun Mocheng looked up at the people on the stairs above, Empress Dowager Gao walked in front with a cane, and Mu Qingyuan followed behind in armor, I didn't expect him to really come back, it seems that this time, he got what he wanted. It's just that...... As if thinking of something, his brow furrowed unconsciously.

"Now that the emperor is seriously ill, all Aiqing is still working for state affairs, which can be said to be the mainstay of my dynasty. Empress Dowager Gao's majestic voice suddenly sounded.

Yun Mocheng came back to his senses and stood up with the ministers.

Empress Dowager Gao glanced at the ministers standing below, and her eyes fell on Yun Mocheng at the front, and a trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes.

On the side, Mu Qingyuan looked down with his head held high, this time when he came back, he was destined to get everything he deserved, the throne, the world, he was bound to clear all obstacles, and when the time came, he would see who would dare to disagree. His eyes were slightly raised, and his gaze fell on Yun Mocheng below, even if he was the prime minister, so what.

"Empress Dowager Qiqi, now that the fourth prince is back, the top priority is to let the fourth prince be the main East Palace and preside over the government, so that I can continue to stand tall in Dongyue." Suddenly, a minister stood up and said.

Hearing this, everyone's thoughts pulled back again. Many ministers echoed and said: "The ministers seconded the proposal and asked the four princes to preside over the government of the East Palace." ”

Empress Dowager Gao's gaze swept over the ministers below, and then turned her head to look at Mu Qingyuan beside her, and said indifferently: "Fourth prince, did you hear that?" The ministers are bent on supporting you as the crown prince, it can be seen that you are usually indeed virtuous, and you are not in vain as a noble person, the mourning family is very relieved, and your father should be happy when he knows the way. ”

"Sun Zi should continue to lead by example, not to let the emperor's grandmother and father, not to let the ministers, and not to disappoint the people of the world." Mu Qingyuan lowered his hand, bowed his head slightly, and said solemnly.

nodded, Empress Dowager Gao's expression was still cold, and she no longer spoke.

It was Mu Qingyuan who slowly raised his head, looking down, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, his head rose slightly, and his heart was cold, the throne of the crown prince will be the throne immediately, this time, he is really going to stand at the top, and no one can stop him.

Yun Mocheng glanced at Mu Qingyuan, and suddenly said: "The ministers have discussed with the queen mother before, and the fourth prince is the crown prince, since the prince has returned, the first thing is naturally to be crowned the prince, and the ministers will bow down." Saying that, he took the lead and knelt on the ground, "The minister greets His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

This call made the rest of the ministers realize it, and suddenly the ministers at the bottom of the steps knelt on the ground again, shouting, "The ministers meet His Royal Highness the Prince, the prince Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

Prince...... Yes, he's the crown prince. Mu Qingyuan's face was radiant, looking at Yun Mocheng who was kneeling in the front, he knew that the Taoist was a junjie, he raised his hand and said with a smile: "Zhongqing is flat." ”

On the side, a cold light flashed in the cloudy eyes of the Empress Dowager Gao, and then, she said indifferently: "Now that the emperor is seriously ill, and state affairs are important, this prince's gift is not necessary for the time being, and there is no need to announce it to the world for the time being, after all, the emperor's illness is the first priority, the fourth prince, no, it is the prince who will deal with state affairs with the ministers now." ”

Mu Qingyuan was slightly stunned, when he was the crown prince, did he have anything to do with his father's illness? He glanced at Empress Dowager Gao in puzzlement, and then said respectfully: "Grandson obeys." ”

Empress Dowager Gao nodded, "Go ahead." ”

Mu Qingyuan walked down the steps directly and was surrounded by the ministers and left.

Looking at the person who was walking behind the most Lu, Empress Dowager Gao suddenly shouted: "Yunxiang." ”

Yun Mocheng's footsteps paused slightly, stopped in place, he turned his head and said respectfully to the Empress Dowager Gao: "What does the Empress Dowager command?" ”

Empress Dowager Gao walked down the steps with the support of the palace maid, walked to Yun Mocheng's side, looked at the person in front of her, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "Yun Xiang's move today really makes the mourning family can't understand it." ”

Yun Mocheng's head was still lowered, and he said indifferently: "The minister doesn't understand what the queen mother means. ”

"What is the benefit of setting up the fourth prince as the crown prince for you, you know that the fourth prince of Lu Dao has half of the blood of the Gao family. The mourning family doesn't think that you will help the Gao family. Empress Dowager Gao raised her eyes to look at Yun Mocheng beside her, and a sharp light shot out of her cloudy eyes.

Feeling the fierce gaze of the person next to him, Yun Mocheng said indifferently: "The fourth prince is a nobleman of Tianhuang, and he was named the crown prince, which is expected by everyone, not the selfishness of the ministers. If it is said that he is selfish, the minister just hopes that the Dongyue Kingdom will become stronger and stronger, so that the minister can repay the emperor's kindness. ”

Knowing the grace of the encounter, he snorted lightly, and the Empress Dowager Gao looked coldly ahead, "What do you think in your heart, the mourning family doesn't want to know the way, because one day the mourning family will know the way." But you should have gotten the news that Mu Jingnan and Yun Yan are dead. The mourning family understands how you feel now, because the mourning family is the same as you, obviously hated a person in the past, but unfortunately later, I found out that it was the mourning family who was wrong. As she spoke, she looked at Yun Mocheng, wanting to see something on his face.

Yun Mocheng raised his head, his handsome face was cold, and he said indifferently: "What the Queen Mother said, the minister doesn't know, but if this is the case, the minister feels sorry for the six princes and the six princesses, if the Queen Mother needs the minister to send someone to find it, the minister will do it immediately." Shocked to hear the bad news, please also ask the Queen Mother to mourn. At present, there are still many things waiting for the minister to help deal with, and the minister will retire first. So saying, he bowed, and turned to leave.

Empress Dowager Gao's expression sank, looked at the hurried figure in front of her, and said in a low voice: "Yun Yuan really doesn't care?" She is Suyu's daughter. is like Mu Jingnan, after all, he is the son of the emperor and the grandson of the mourning family. ”

Yun Mocheng stopped, didn't look at the person behind him, just said lightly: "I don't know what the Empress Dowager Lu Dao means by this?" ”

Empress Dowager Gao's eyes were calm, and her voice was cold, "What do you mean, you understand." Because of Suyu, you should hate the mourning family very much in your heart. ”
