As the current regent of Xianyu, the Empress Dowager Chen, who listened to the government, died, and Zhou Xianchen's life and death were unpredictable, and in a coma, there was indeed no one more suitable for supervising the country than him.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Ji Lingfeng, who was standing on the side, let out an extremely harsh sneer, and then said with a sneering face:

"Regent, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to say this, after all, Empress Dowager Chen and your party and government have been at odds for many years, and this is a well-known thing for the government and the wilderness. Now that Yanqing Palace is in the water, all the palace people have been killed on the ground, which shows that the death of the Queen Mother is not simple. I'm afraid it wasn't an accident, but someone deliberately murdered it. ”

Having said this, Ji Lingfeng couldn't help but look at the civil and military officials present, and then continued meaningfully:

"Now that there is an accident in the palace, His Majesty Emperor Wen, who is in the palace of the regent, has been assassinated for some reason. I don't know who is in Changping, the wheel is heavily guarded, if the palace is the first, then the regent palace with Zhou Xianyu in your seat should be the second. This is also the reason why His Majesty moved to live with you, although it is not in accordance with the rules, but there is not much opposition from the government and the opposition. But now that Your Majesty has had an accident with you, and the time is such a coincidence, no matter whether this matter has anything to do with you Zhou Xianyu or not, you can't get away with the charge of protecting the unfavorable. ”

Now all the unfavorable sides, with Ji Lingfeng's words, are gradually leaning towards Zhou Xianyu's side.

And this will stand aside alone, and it will also ease the mind of Xiangping.

Even though she killed Empress Dowager Chen's biological mother, and then knew that Zhou Xianchen's brother was in danger, she didn't do anything to stop her.

But seeing that Zhou Xianyu was passive, she once again disregarded her family affection, and immediately helped Ji Lingfeng and said:

"Ji Dugong is right, Brother Seven, you are now the regent, if the queen mother and the royal brother are gone, then the rivers and mountains of the Great Zhou will naturally be controlled by you alone. And what you just said about imprisoning the country fully exposed your ambitions. When my father died, the other party gave you the dragon wrench that symbolized the dignity of the Ninety-Five, I am afraid that you were not convinced that my imperial brother Zhou Xianrui ascended the throne and became the emperor. So you've endured it for so many years, just waiting for a time to get rid of all the people who are in the way, and then sit on the dragon chair, right? Seventh brother, your heart is really vicious, Xiangping really didn't expect you to do such a terrible thing. “

Because Ji Lingfeng was a courtier, he had to be cautious when he spoke, and he didn't dare to point the finger at Zhou Xianyu too much.

However, Xiangping, as the eldest princess, is the same as the prince, plus the Empress Dowager Chen and Zhou Xianchen, they are all her closest relatives, so there is naturally no need to scruple when speaking.

No matter how fierce her words are, others will only be so out of shape when she is suffering from the loss of a loved one.

In addition to being more sympathetic, no one will blame Xiangping at this time.

And after listening to Xiangping's words, which of the ministers of the court and politics is not very shrewd, when no one said it, they already felt that Zhou Xianyu was the most suspicious.

After all, as soon as Empress Dowager Chen and Zhou Xianchen died, it was indeed Zhou Xianyu who benefited the most from the current situation.

Now after listening to Xiangping's words, whether it is the Queen Mother's party, or even the ministers who originally supported Zhou Xianchen with Zhou Xianyu's party.

This will reach a consensus in an instant with a very tacit understanding, and his eyes are faintly looking at Zhou Xianyu.

Looking at this situation, although Zhou Xianyu thought that when Zhou Xianchen's assassination was said, the civil and military officials would react very violently.

But he really didn't expect that now everyone is questioning him.

Zhou Xianyu, who immediately felt the injustice and humiliation, his temper came up a little as soon as he clenched his fists, but fortunately, Xiao Jinxuan pulled him first, and whispered quietly:

"You must not be reckless and angry, otherwise Ji Lingfeng and Xiangping's slander will make it really more difficult for you to clear your suspicions. Now the situation is really not in our favor, and you are here to give the other side more opportunities to attack you. So I'm in charge of dealing with these people, you leave quickly and rush to the Beijing military camp, and then assemble the army and the town ** regiment in your hand. If Xianchen has an accident, in order to prevent the palace mutiny, absolute military power is needed to suppress it. I will do it when the court fights for power, and leading troops to fight is your strength, and this piece will be controlled by you. If we act separately, we will definitely be able to turn the tide. ”

Although Zhou Xianyu is a prince in the final analysis, he is more inclined to be a military general.

Asking him to stand here, deceiving Ji Lingfeng and the Manchu Dynasty Wenwuer, and playing tricks, this is indeed a little too difficult for him.

Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan's arrangement is a good way to help Zhou Xianyu promote his strengths and avoid weaknesses, and give full play to the advantages of the other party.

And Zhou Xianyu, who also knew that the situation was urgent, immediately nodded and walked towards the outside of Yanqing Palace, as for Xiao Jinxuan, he was not very worried.

After all, with the identity of Princess Beirong, Da Zhou is now in a situation of internal and external troubles.

There is really no one who dares to mess with Xiao Jinxuan in the slightest, after all, the Beirong Iron Horse is famous far and wide, and it is still very deterrent.

And Zhou Xianyu's meeting was already suspicious, so if he wanted to leave, a minister would immediately stop him.

There is a big one who has already identified the other party as if he was behind the arson of Yanqing Palace and the assassination of Zhou Xianchen.

Xiao Jinxuan is not an ornament in this regard, seeing that several forbidden soldiers are going to chase after Zhou Xianyu under the instruction of Ji Lingfeng.

Immediately, she raised her eyebrows at Ziying and Liu Ye beside her, and commanded sternly:

"If anyone dares to block my husband's way, Ziying will immediately kill people, whether it is the forbidden army or the ministers present, even if the person who stops is Princess Xiangping, you will kill me according to it."

Ziying has never put the royal nobles in her eyes, and only listens to Xiao Jinxuan's orders.

Therefore, after responding respectfully, she immediately drew out her short knife and cleanly eliminated the forbidden soldiers who were going to chase them out of the main courtyard of Yanqing Palace.

Seeing Xiao Jinxuan's words, he didn't mean to intimidate others, but really took people's lives when he saw blood.

For a while, the ministers who were still full of justice and awe-inspiring and wanted to rush out to stop Zhou Xianyu immediately had their pupils contracted violently, and they all retreated in fear.

But there was only one person, who was not afraid at all, and even greeted Ziying's short knife.

And Xiao Jinxuan, who saw all the situation in her eyes, looked at this scene and couldn't help but immediately question the person who wanted to break through Ziying:

"Meng Mian, what do you mean, others listen to and believe it, you have worked with the prince in the same dynasty for several years, don't you know what he is. As the prime minister, you should now stabilize people's hearts and help the regent not to cause turmoil in the court. And if you look at what you've done so far, don't you think what happened today is messy enough? ”

If it were someone else, Xiao Jinxuan would ask Ziying to kill mercilessly in order to deter the situation.

But Meng Mian is very different, the other party and her are both from Yangzhou.

Even though Xiao Jinxuan already knew that she was from Beirong, she subconsciously still regarded Meng Mian as a fellow villager, and her affection was still very deep.

In addition, Meng Mian is Meng Liangjun's eldest brother, and he is the favorite person of this good sister.

And the other party's entry into the official career can be said to be single-handedly facilitated by Xiao Jinxuan, and when she escaped from the palace, the other party not only concealed it and did not report it to the court, but also helped out with righteousness.

Xiao Jinxuan is a person who has the grace of dripping water and remembers it in her heart, so she spoke out to dissuade Meng Mian, because she really couldn't do anything to kill the other party.

But he has always cooperated with Zhou Xianyu over the years, cooperated tacitly in the court situation, and wholeheartedly assisted Zhou Xianchen's Meng Mian.

This time, however, it is clear that there has been a dramatic shift in stance.

Seeing that after listening to Xiao Jinxuan's words, he hadn't recognized the other party's true identity yet, and said with a serious face:

"Princess Changde, although you are a princess, after all, you are a woman in the back house, and you are not a person from my Great Zhou. Therefore, today's affairs are reasonable, and you have no right to intervene. What kind of person the regent is, the official does know a thing or two. But today's matter, as Princess Xiangping said, the other party does have a lot of suspicion. Therefore, this official is also for the sake of the regent, and asked the other party to make it clear in front of the civil and military officials now, otherwise Shu Meng Mian will not be able to agree, and the prince will be in charge of the country. ”

Meng Mian is upright and does not give in to the powerful party, and his hard work and assistance by Zhou Xianchen's side over the years are indeed hard work and worthy of admiration.

But people of his character are also the most stubborn.

Now that he recognized that Zhou Xianyu was suspicious, the officials next to him were just loyal, but Meng Mian really dared to hit Ziying's knife.

Seeing that Ji Lingfeng and Xiangping had not continued to make trouble, Meng Mian was the first to become a bird.

While secretly annoyed that the other party was confused, Xiao Jinxuan didn't care about the friendship, and immediately said with a sarcastic smile:

"It's a shame that Prime Minister Meng still remembers my husband, who is the regent of the Great Zhou Palace. You say that Xianyu is related to the death of the Queen Mother today and the assassination of Emperor Wen, in addition to a few speculative words, there is real evidence. Here is what Ji Dugong said the most, where is the evidence, you have to take it out and show this princess how it is. ”

Empress Chen's death was sudden, and Zhou Xianchen's assassination was also hastily arranged by Ji Lingfeng under improvised circumstances.

Therefore, it is not difficult to pour dirty water on Zhou Xianyu's body, but the so-called real evidence, in just an hour or so, where does Ji Lingfeng have the time to arrange so comprehensively.

So Xiao Jinxuan would ask him to come up with evidence, and Ji Lingfeng naturally couldn't answer.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Xiao Jinxuan looked at the Manchu Dynasty again, and her eyes fell on Meng Mian's body, and then asked again with a light smile:

"Ji Dugong just thought about his words, and what he said was like the truth, as if he and Princess Xiangping had watched my husband Jun Xianyu burn Yanqing Palace with their own eyes. But now that Concubine Ben is questioning, the other party can't come up with any evidence. Then I also want to ask, Prime Minister Meng Cheng, you will suspect the regent for no reason, but there is evidence of the other party's heinousness. ”

Meng Mian is a person who has always been pragmatic and pragmatic.

So as soon as he saw Xiao Jinxuan asking him to come up with evidence, his face was immediately stunned, and he couldn't say anything based on reason.

As soon as they saw Ji Lingfeng and Xiangping, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty finally came out of the excitement and calmed down, and gradually lost the sound of discussion.

But Xiao Jinxuan's smiling face immediately froze, and her momentum instantly said extremely coldly:

"The Queen Mother, Emperor Wen's status is noble, but Xianyu is also the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he is also the princess of my Beirong. You have no evidence and want to blame my husband out of thin air, what a bold man. Don't think that my regent palace is easy to bully, either show evidence, or you people will shut up this princess. Whoever dares to slander Xianyu with nonsense again, I will destroy whose nine clans! ”
