His Majesty collapsed, the crown prince was about to die, and Queen Zhou Xiangyun's heart was full of sadness.

It's just that her sadness is not because of Your Majesty, not because of the love that Jun died and I lived, and she was not worried about the future of Great Xia, but because she was sad that her son King Chu died too early, if he didn't die, wouldn't he be able to be the emperor now?

His own son is a son-in-law, His Majesty did not appoint his son-in-law as the prince at the time, and now His Majesty is dead, and the rest of the people must follow the etiquette law, but unfortunately... Or became sad.

Wiping the tears left by his eyes, Zhou Xiangyun looked at Xiao Mingying and asked, "The prince's situation is really serious?" ”

Xiao Mingying nodded and said sadly: "I suspect that it is highly poisonous, but I haven't even figured out what poison it is so far, how to detoxify it?" Hua Tuo's medical skills are better than those of the imperial doctor, and he has received the kindness of His Royal Highness the Prince, if there is a way in ten thousand, he will also try his best. But now, it's too hard. ”

Zhou Xiangyun gritted his teeth and didn't let the inner pleasure be exposed to the corners of his mouth.

Xiao Rui, Xiao Rui, you also have today! Yes, you deserve it!

"If the crown prince is the crown prince, who should inherit the throne?" Subsequently, Zhou Xiangyun asked the question he was most concerned about.

Xiao Mingying said: "It should be Xiao Lie, the king of Jin!" King Jin is the eldest son of His Majesty. If the son-in-law is not there, the eldest son needs to be appointed, so that it can be convincing, and other princes and civil and military officials will not raise objections. Moreover, the king of Jin is diligent in studying, has a talent and a reputation, and there is no shortage of virtue, so he can govern Daxia well! This is the conclusion that this king and Master Li have communicated for a long time. ”

Li Mingchong also said: "Queen Mother, it is most appropriate for His Royal Highness King Jin to inherit the unification, I don't know what the Queen Mother wants?" ”

Zhou Xiangyun couldn't help but sneer, and said: "The sister-in-law is not here, you need to set up the eldest son, when the sister-in-law was there, why didn't you set up a son-in-law, if the sister-in-law was established as the prince early according to the rules, will Your Majesty be killed?" Would it be today? Now that you want to be the firstborn, why did you go earlier? There must be a cause and an effect, and all of this today is caused by Xiao Rui! ”

Xiao Mingying and Li Mingchong didn't dare to refute, Zhou Xiangyun was angry, and he would explode if he clicked again.

After venting, Zhou Xiangyun continued: "Since Your Majesty doesn't pay attention to establishing a son-in-law, why do you still follow the establishment of an eldest son? The most suitable prince should be selected to inherit the throne. Looking at the remaining six princes, although Xiao Lie, the king of Jin, loves to read, he is too angry with books, how can he have the majesty of His Majesty who commanded millions of troops to kill all sides, his personality is too soft, and he is definitely not suitable to be an emperor. Wu Wang Xiao Ze, pinning his affection on the mountains and rivers, painting all day long, or let him continue to be a carefree prince. Duanwang Xiao Feng, hum, a martial artist, it is okay to fight a war, but it lacks the strategy of governing the country, and it is not good. Xiao Yuan, the king of the Ming Dynasty, was recalled after being demoted to Fuzhou, and he was not as good as the previous few people. King Jing Xiao Jing, can the emperor of Great Xia be a cripple? In the end, only King Tang remained! ”

"Tang Wang Xiao Yan is eighteen years old, not very old, and has good plasticity. He has read Journey to the West, and he can write this book, and his writing is naturally no problem, and there are many ways to behave in the book, which shows that although Tang Wang is young, he understands everything. Even, there are many great truths about governing the country in the text. If he is allowed to inherit the unification, and then assisted by Lord Zhou and Lord Li, in a few years, he may be able to become a Ming Jun! Therefore, the suggestion of this palace is to make the king of Tang the prince and inherit the unification! ”

"What do you two think?"

Xiao Mingying and Li Mingchong were stunned, they didn't expect the queen to nominate Tang King Xiao Yan.

"Niangniang's analysis is thorough, but if you don't set up the eldest son King Jin, but set up the King of Tang, this king is worried that the other princes will not accept it, and it will cause soldiers when the time comes." Xiao Mingying expressed her inner worries.

Queen Zhou Xiangyun nodded, if you don't talk about the rules, the other princes won't talk about the rules, now is the best time to compete for the throne, for the throne, will the other princes be honest and obedient?

Let's do it, whoever wins is whoever!

Zhou Xiangyun seemed to have a way for a long time, so he only heard her shout: "Then fake the word, invite all the six princes into the palace, and then imprison them by the forbidden army, and then announce the news of His Majesty's death, and quickly decide that Tang King Xiao Yan will inherit the unification!" In this case, solve the problem with lightning speed, even if the other princes think of Bingge, how can they start? When the time comes, the new emperor will inherit the unification and announce the world, are you still afraid? ”

Li Mingchong was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Niang Niang, this method is too good." ”

But Xiao Mingying sighed and said, "Niangniang, this king still wants to wait for two more days to see the situation of the prince, if he is really powerless, and then follow Niangniang's idea, how about it?" ”

Zhou Xiangyun glanced at Xiao Rui on the bed, walked straight over, and then sat on the edge of the bed and tidied up the quilt for him.

Everyone present thought that she was kind, but who knew that her left hand hidden in her sleeve was holding a silver needle, and when she was sorting out the quilt, it pierced Xiao Rui's wrist, if Xiao Rui really pretended to be unconscious, it would be difficult to disguise.

But Xiao Rui is still angry, and he may lose his breath at any time.

Zhou Xiangyun got up, nodded and said, "Okay!" Wait another day or two. ”

"Yes! In addition, about His Majesty's death, please don't tell anyone. Xiao Mingying said.

Zhou Xiangyun said: "This is a big deal, this palace understands." ”

Subsequently, the empress left the East Palace and returned to Changchun Palace.

After it is determined that the queen is gone, the scene will be over.

Everyone recalls whether they show their stuffing, this is a drama without rehearsals, once the stuffing is exposed, such as laughing, it will be troublesome.

Fortunately, everyone knows that the situation is important, and they are in place in one step. Of course, Yan Xiaoxiao, Zhuge Liuying and Li Ruoxue are just group performances, and the three of them will not show their feet if they lower their heads and pretend to cry, mainly to watch Xiao Mingying and Li Mingchong's acting skills.

Then again, they are all old fritters in officialdom, which one is not an old actor who acts every day!

Subsequently, Xiao Rui was fed the antidote, and after waking up, Xiao Rui raised his left hand and said bitterly: "Who pierced the palace, what a ruthless heart!" ”

Only then did everyone see the pinhole on Xiao Rui's palm, and then they understood that it was the queen's doing, because His Majesty had already come, so no one dared to complain.

Emperor Xia glanced at Xiao Rui's injury, then waved his hand and said, "You have worked hard, go down and rest, I will talk to the prince." ”

Everyone understood, and everyone retreated obediently.

Xiao Rui hurriedly tore off the props on his face, this was made by Azhu in a hurry, it was made with the old man's face, and it was brought to his face to show that Xiao Rui had run out of oil and dried up, and he was about to hang up after being tortured by poison.

Only Xia Huang and Xiao Rui were left in the house.

Emperor Xia smiled: "The queen blames me, I can understand, since ancient times, the eldest son has inherited the unification, but I have been dragging it out, the queen is complaining, and I will not be angry." However, whether the queen's coming this time was unintentional or intentional, or whether it was a pawn of the commander behind the scenes, I can't see through it now. But she suggested that the Tang King be the emperor, what do you think? You have the best relationship with King Tang, you might as well talk about it. ”

Xiao Rui said: "Father, the son feels that the queen does not agree to let the king of Jin ascend the throne, it is reasonable, the mother of the king of Jin is the mother of the imperial concubine, if the king of Jin ascends the throne, the relationship between the queen mother and the queen concubine will be even worse, which the queen does not want to see." ”

A biological mother, a queen, once the King of Jin becomes the emperor, the rest of Zhou Xiangyun's life will be sad, she has pressed Lin Yuer for all these years, and now the feng shui is turning, and she has suffered, so he will never allow the King of Jin to inherit the unification.

Xiao Rui continued: "Except for King Jin, among the remaining people, Erchen didn't expect the queen mother to choose King Tang. ”

"Who do you think she should choose?" Xia Huang asked with a smile.

"Duanwang." Xiao Rui said.

"Reason." Emperor Xia asked.

Xiao Rui explained: "Father, if there is any great disrespect in what the sons say, please forgive me." Erchen felt that the Queen Mother and Princess Duan hanged themselves, and if King Duan ascended the throne, the Queen Mother would be the Queen Mother, which was the most in line with the interests of the Queen Mother. ”

This is indeed a big disrespect, Xiao Rui meant, the queen is to recommend the new emperor for her own interests, not for the sake of Great Xia.

Emperor Xia naturally wouldn't reprimand Xiao Rui because of his concern, he asked with a smile, "But the queen recommended King Tang." ”

"Yes, this is also where Erchen is puzzled." Xiao Rui nodded.

Emperor Xia took a sip of tea and continued: "Don't hide it, just say it." ”

Xiao Rui smiled, and then said: "Father, the queen mother came this time and insisted on seeing her father, so you can see that she did not come here unintentionally, but intentionally came here, just to verify her father's situation." And when the queen mother verified that her father had an accident and her son was dying, the queen mother took the initiative to support King Tang, which showed that supporting King Tang could make the queen mother get what she wanted, even greater than supporting King Duan. So who gives the benefits to the queen? It must be the mastermind behind the scenes. Then it also proves that the behind-the-scenes commander did all this in order to let King Tang ascend to the throne! ”

"Does King Tang have the ability to plan? Erchen felt that Tang Wang's brain could not support these schemes. Then it must be someone else, and someone who is closely related to King Tang. Like what... Yasukuni Gong. ”

"Thinking about it again, after Lu Su and Lu Pheasant entered Kyoto, they used the help of the Yasukuni Gong's house, and it was the Yasukuni Gong who implored his father and the emperor to make Lu Pheasant a female official in the East Palace.

After saying this, Xiao Rui fell silent.

Xiao Yan's pure heart is difficult to ensure that his elders will not plan for him. And now it seems that the plan was very ingenious and almost successful.

Xia Huang smiled: "It's right to have suspicions, but it's not okay without conclusive evidence." ”

Xiao Rui immediately understood Emperor Xia's reminder, since he was suspicious of the Duke of Yasukuni, he had to check him carefully, and while there were still two days to go, he might be able to find out the unexpected joy.

Subsequently, Xiao Rui asked Li Yuanfang to go to Zhan Shifu and began to track down the Jingguo Gong, and at the same time, Wei Zhongxian of the East Palace also received instructions from Hai Dafu and sent his henchmen to secretly investigate the Jingguo Gong.

……

Late at night, Xiao Rui sat in the small garden at the back of the house admiring the moon.

The road to becoming the emperor is full of thorns, because the throne is too tempting, and if you don't sweep away all the dangers that exist in the dark, Xiao Rui is now on the throne, and he can't sit down.

When Xiao Rui sighed, Yan Xiaoxiao didn't know when he came over.
