Chapter 234: King Zhao is a true hero
Queen Qi Wuyan had been behind the screen for a long time. She didn't want to show her head and openly participate in the government's politics. But when she heard those arrogant words, Princess Sanssouci, who was by her side, finally couldn't help but be angry.
In fact, the queen had long been aware of certain movements inside and outside the court. Although she is generous to the common people, she is sympathetic to the common people. But that doesn't mean she's not a little wary.
The power that the queen won in her hands was for the people of Qi Kingdom. At this point, she has a clear conscience. But at the same time, because of the relationship of interests, the contradictions between the top and bottom of the royal court are inevitable after all. And the most obvious and difficult to mediate is the contradiction with those who support Childe Tianxi.
Although the actual power of the prime minister of Qi is not great, because of the addition of those generals in the army, people have to be more vigilant. The queen knew very well in her heart that King Qi could not count on it. If Gongzi Tian Zhen really ascended to the throne with the help of those people in the future, then he will definitely not show mercy.
This is an inherently difficult contradiction. If the wisest choice is to give up all the power in her hands and only be the queen of her palace in peace. Wait until the king of Qi leaves in the future, and follow him together. But Wuyan is not one such person.
The people of Qi need her. Whenever she helps to improve the lives of these ordinary people even a little bit, she feels very relieved. Even if she was carrying the open guns and arrows behind her at any time, she felt that it was worth it.
If the help from Zhao Guo can make Qi Guo develop rapidly, she doesn't care about the price she pays for it. Even if the contradiction with Gongzi Tian Yi and others is made public, he will not hesitate to do so.
So, when Princess Sanssouci, who couldn't bear it, spoke out angrily, she didn't stop it. Then they walked out from behind the screen together. This is the first time that Queen Wuyan has really stood on the royal court.
Many people were a little surprised by the sudden appearance of the queen. For a long time, although this queen has done a lot for the whole Qi country, she has never openly participated in government affairs. Looking at her solemn expression, it was obviously a little unusual.
However, these are extraordinary times. No one is too harsh. King Qi fell ill and couldn't take care of things. The queen has shown her responsibility by being able to take the initiative to stand up. Lan Lingjun and Gongsun Ji were all in good spirits, and they looked at each other, and they were all very pleased. At critical moments, the help of the queen is necessary.
And some people's expressions look very unnatural. They automatically ignored Princess Sanssouci's words just now. That's just a girl who doesn't know the height of the sky. After reluctantly bowing down with him, Qi Guoxiang frowned and said.
"The king is sick and needs to be taken care of...... The queen shouldn't be here at this time! ”
There is something in his words that everyone can hear. Childe Tian Xian's heart was dark. The prime minister is really loyal to himself! King Qi has beauties around him to take care of, so naturally he doesn't need the queen. The irony implied in his words has been revealed.
Unexpectedly, the queen not only ignored his rudeness, but didn't even look at him. She turned her gaze to the young man who stood up in greeting, smiled and nodded.
"King Zhao has worked hard! You came thousands of miles to help Qi Guo, but you almost suffered an accident unexpectedly...... Now not only did he not get a good rest, but he also sat here tirelessly to discuss big things. It's all because of our poor hospitality. On behalf of the King of Qi and the people of the Kingdom of Qi, I solemnly thank you! ”
After finishing speaking, Wu Yan, who was the queen of Qi, bowed down and bowed. Chu Jiangmian was taken aback. He hurriedly flashed to the side, not daring to accept this solemn courtesy.
"The queen is serious! Zhao and Qi united, and both sides benefited. The country of Qi is in trouble, and I have come to help from now on...... As a junior, I would never dare to accept this gift! ”
The rest of the people were also a little stunned. The queen has always been saltless and is loved by the people of Qi. It was extremely rare for her to give Chu Jiangmian such a high courtesy. And the minister of state, who was directly ignored, stepped aside with a blue face, and the hatred in his heart could not be eliminated. I didn't expect this easy-going and amiable queen to be so love-hate and hateful. She did it on purpose!
"You deserve it! This is originally Qi Guo is sorry for you. ”
The queen waved her hand and restrained the smile on her face. Since Chu Jiangmian entered the city, she hadn't said a word to him. However, with her eyes that can see through people's hearts, she has already decided that the choice she made for her daughter is not wrong. This young man is indeed a dragon and phoenix among people, extraordinary!
Chu Jiangmian humbly bowed his head and thanked him. Hurriedly glanced, although did not dare to look closely. But he has discovered that this legendary and famous queen has a natural affinity in her. At first sight, it is very trustworthy.
And when he raised his head again, he was met with a pair of eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, staring at him. When their eyes met, the other party quickly withdrew his gaze. The shyness between the glances made him feel secretly amused.
How did the carefree princess who had just made bold words become such a shy girl in the blink of an eye? Could it be that his charm has become so great...... Ahem!
Princess Sanssouci standing on the steps naturally couldn't guess what this arrogant guy was thinking. However, her shy posture was only for him. And the reason why it was so inadvertently revealed just now was just because the queen whispered something in her ear.
"Take advantage of your chance! He's very good. ”
Encouraged by the queen mother, she clenched her fists tightly, and her gaze became more determined. After a little silence in the hall, the queen was heard to continue.
"How...... Lan Lingjun, haven't the things that should be discussed have been completed yet? ”
"Queen, there is no time for anything else...... Only whether to send troops to the king or not, everyone's differences are large, and it is difficult to unify opinions. ”
Lan Lingjun told the truth. He believed that the queen had already understood everything, and at this time she made an exception and must have made her own decision. Sure enough, he immediately heard the queen's calm voice.
"There is no need to discuss too much about the cooperation between Qi and Zhao. Since the king can't be a council member now, as the king's brother, you should naturally share more worries about him. You can just do those things with the doctors. If you need the king to take an idea, I will naturally convey it to you. ”
Lanling Juntian Wuzhao and Doctor Gongsun Ji and others were secretly happy in their hearts. The queen was decisive and neat. They hurriedly bowed down in unison and agreed. And someone on the side was not happy.
"Doesn't the queen think it's too hasty to make such a distribution? The Qi State and the Zhao State are united, so many thousands of major events, only handed over to Lan Lingjun and them, I'm afraid it is not appropriate! What's more, there is the eldest son Tian Xi and all the sons here...... Doesn't the queen feel that she is acting as a substitute? ”
Qi Guoxiang's face pulled the elder. Since the queen didn't take him seriously at all, he didn't need to speak politely. For the sake of royal power, since the contradictions between them will be broken sooner or later, there is no need to hide them anymore. This is a good opportunity. Why not take advantage of King Qi's illness to completely determine the status of the eldest son!
Tian Ji and the others who followed him immediately understood what he meant. Soon, they all stood up with serious faces and expressed the same opinion.
"What the Prime Minister said is very true! As the eldest son of the royal family, Tian Xian Gongzi should naturally take on more responsibilities ....... ”
"Since the king is in poor health, why don't you let the eldest son temporarily act as the agent of the royal court?"
"Yes! The king is also old, and it is not a matter of delay in establishing a successor. The eldest son has both talent and virtue, and is enough to take on the ...... of great responsibilities. ”
"For the sake of Qi Guosheji, this matter must be established! General Tian Ji, as members of the royal family, it's time for you to show your support! ”
Lan Lingjun looked at the menacing momentum of these people opposite, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong. After all, I still think too simple! If you get into trouble now, I'm afraid you'll get into big trouble. It's just that the other party's ambition has been around for a long time, and once he seizes the opportunity, it is not something he can control.
Lan Lingjun argued with them a few more words. I want to know the righteousness and let everyone take care of the overall situation. However, the generals who were agitated directly expressed their determination to immediately establish Gongzi Tian Xie as the heir to the throne with an unruly attitude.
The hall was very messy, very messy. Queen Wuyan looked at the noise and anger below, and her heart was very disappointed. As long as one of these sons could become a weapon, she would have persuaded King Qi to be formally established as the successor. If you really let Gongzi Tianxi, a narrow-minded guy, take over the throne, then the Qi Kingdom will really not be at peace from now on. It's just that in this situation, with her identity, it is inconvenient to argue with these ministers.
Princess Sanssouci was so angry that she wanted to draw her sword and rush down to teach those few disrespectful guys a lesson. Especially Childe Tian shirt. She had already seen that nasty gaze swept over several times provocatively, it was extremely rude!
"Huh! It is no wonder that the country of Qi has plummeted over the years and has lost the wind of a great country. Looks like that's the reason for you short-sighted guys...... Alas! What a pity! ”
A sarcastic voice abruptly arose, and the hall fell silent for a moment. Under the gaze of dozens of eyes, I saw Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian walk to the middle, and pointed to the minister of state and the prince Tianxian who were glaring at him angrily. With a very unbeaten expression on his face, he continued.
"Oh, that's you! You, you, and you...... One by one, they look like important ministers and generals of the royal court, but in fact, they are just wine bags and rice bags who are greedy for life and afraid of death! ”
