The people flocked to the gate of the palace to protest and crusade, the deafening protest has already reached the ears of everyone in the Golden Palace, the emperor's face can no longer be described as difficult, and the air pressure in the palace once dropped to the lowest point, which is even more palpitating.

"Who can tell me what the hell is going on?" The emperor's face was distorted, and his hands were even more stubbornly holding the handle of the dragon chair, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Where did these rumors come from, this is out of nothing, and all those Diao people who dare to talk about me will be killed!" Immediately! ”

When the emperor said this, his cold eyes shot straight at Si Huazhen, today's things are really strange, and in this rising rumor, most of them are complaining about Si Huazhen, and the emperor is very suspicious that the black hand behind this is Si Huazhen.

Si Huazhen was aware of the emperor's gaze, he glanced at the emperor indifferently, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, kill? How can you kill it? It's ridiculous and pathetic.

The emperor's words fell, no one echoed, no one refuted, all the ministers looked at their noses and mouths and hung their heads silently, the hall was a deathly silence, the emperor's fury suddenly sounded, and he shouted: "What? Don't even dare to listen to what I say? Or did you believe the rumors! This is simply nonsense! ”

The emperor was so angry that his words were out of order, "I am the Son of Heaven, what do I want to do, why do I need ants to put my beak, no one deserves to blame me, no one!" ”

"Your Majesty." Si Yuanqiong was the first to stand up, and the emperor thought that Si Yuanqiong was going to speak to him, so he softened his face and said, "Yuanqiong, what do you want to say, just say it." ”

Si Yuanqiong ignored the emperor's eager gaze, and said in a businesslike tone: "Everything will not be groundless, if you are angry today, Your Majesty should also comply with the will of the people." ”

"You! What do you mean? The emperor's eyes widened in disbelief, his pupils constricted, he never expected that Si Yuanqiong, who had always obeyed his orders on weekdays, would stab him fiercely at this time.

It seems that Si Yuanqiong's leadership has inspired some people, and after that, ministers have stood up one after another, and issued aggressive proposals in a respectful manner: "Please also ask Your Majesty to comply with the wishes of the people and abdicate to make way for Xian, so that the anger of the people can be calmed." ”

For a while, more than half of the people knelt in the hall, Si Huazhen stood on one side indifferently, neither expressing his position, nor helping the emperor to speak, the minister standing on Si Huazhen's side saw this, he wanted to kneel down and ask the emperor to abdicate and make way for Xian, but he was also afraid of Si Huazhen's attitude and chose to watch from the wall.

"Presumptuous! You're all reversed! How dare you threaten me! The Emperor's throat was boiling with fishy sweetness, and his eyes were glowing with a terrible scarlet.

"King Huai'an, even if Your Majesty is really at fault, it is not easy to change course, it must be done step by step, and it is necessary to plan well, and it is not in a hurry." In the chaos, Si Huazhen finally spoke out, but the spearhead was directed at Si Yuanqiong.

Who does this so-called abdication refer to the "virtuous" in the virtuous, it is self-evident that the prince under the emperor's knee does not have a very brilliant person, and Si Huazhen and Si Yuanqiong can be said to be equally divided, in this case, it is the emperor who wants to give up the throne to his own prince, and most of the ministers will not buy it.

The turmoil in the government and the opposition, how can the weak teenagers deal with it, their hopes can only be pinned on one of the two people, Si Huazhen and Si Yuanqiong.

When the ministers heard this, whether they were biased towards Si Huazhen or Si Yuanqiong's party, they all made some calculations in their hearts, and the discussion in the hall gradually lowered.

The emperor rarely sobered up, and after realizing that Si Huazhen was delaying the army for him, he even echoed it unprecedentedly: "King Jingping is reasonable, I know that I have done something irreparably wrong, and I hope that the secretaries can believe me this time." ”

The emperor paused, as if he had thought of something, and actually took the initiative to say the matter of establishing the crown prince, "The prince is the foundation of the country, and it is related to the stability of the society, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer this time." ”

The emperor made such a concession, and the ministers were not good at saying anything more, and after the court meeting dispersed, the emperor said that Si Huazhen would stay in the imperial study.

"I want to thank you today." The emperor said with a little reluctance, but at the moment, the only person he can trust seems to be Si Huazhen, as for Si Yuanqiong, the emperor has a dislike for Si Yuanqiong because of what happened during today's court meeting.

"This is the duty of the minister." Si Huazhen's voice said without a trace of ups and downs, his face was indifferent, as if the person standing in front of him was not a high-powered emperor, but just an ordinary person.

"Brother Zhen." The emperor hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Do you think who is suitable for this prince?" ”

Si Huazhen heard the emperor ask this, but the curvature of his lips was a little more sarcastic, the emperor asked this question interestingly, but he just wanted to take the opportunity to find out who he wanted to choose.

Then he completely excluded the people he chose, so as to announce to everyone that it was not that the emperor did not want to choose the prince, but that there was no one who could take on the great responsibility.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the minister doesn't know." Si Huazhen dealt casually.

"Brother Zhen, aren't you still blaming me?" The emperor lowered his posture in a timely manner, and said to Si Huazhen in a cohesive tone: "I was also confused by traitors before, and I was just confused by ghosts for a while, but I have never killed Brother Zhen, but it is just a little fight." ”

The emperor tried to expose the past lightly, but Si Huazhen didn't have the heart to argue with the emperor, so he still casually answered "um" and stopped talking.

The emperor was a little embarrassed for a while, clenched his fists and coughed lightly: "I will definitely give you some compensation, Brother Zhen should answer my question first." ”

"Your Majesty, my brother really doesn't know who is the most suitable person, maybe King Huai'an is better." Si Huazhen mercilessly sprinkled another handful of salt on the emperor's heart.

The emperor glared at Si Huazhen with a blank face, and said coldly, "I don't want to mention him. ”

Si Huazhen stirred his eyebrows with interest, did the emperor finally see Si Yuanqiong's true face this time?

It's just a pity, it's a little late, if the emperor could have been a little earlier, the current situation may not be so passive.

Si Huazhen pondered for a moment, and finally said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, there will be a day when the strategy of delaying the army will not be delayed again, and sometimes, you have to give up something in order to protect yourself to the greatest extent." ”
