Chapter 357: Controversy
Najib sat very close to Tuoba Yeze, and Dahui naturally sat on one side with Tuoba Zeyan.
Other antiquities officials are on either side.
On the table, there are a variety of delicacies unique to the country of Uzbe, including a pastry made by Mrs. Zixi.
King Fran changed his usual ill appearance, and his spirit seemed to be fully recovered.
He first opened his mouth to praise the wealth and vastness of the Great Tuoba, and his words were full of yearning and expectations for the Great Tuoba.
Next comes the song and dance.
Liu Mengyan could feel the gaze from the other side from time to time, but she ignored it.
"Your Majesty, I heard that His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince of the Great Tuoba has courted Princess Elilian. And the Great Tuoba Emperor agreed. The minister thinks this is a good family affair. One of the ministers stood up and saluted King Fran.
Elilian looked at her mother, and then at the old king, and looked away, with a look of displeasure.
"Your Majesty, now the five and six princes of the Great Tuoba are here in our country. Just waiting for His Majesty's words. The queen said on the side.
"The queen doesn't have to force her father, I don't agree, I just don't marry. His Royal Highness King Xian is just good, but I just don't like it. Elilian stood up and said in court.
Don't give any face, don't leave a trace of decency!
Rao is Tuoba Yeze's best cultivation, and his face is as ugly as a pig's liver at this moment!
He, Tuoba Yeze as long as he appears in the big Tuoba has always attracted a burst of admiration from the girls of the boudoir of the family, how could he have been rejected in court like this!
Liu Mengyan couldn't help but look over, only to see that he tried his best to maintain his usual nobility and arrogance, but his unnatural face betrayed him!
"Your Royal Highness, your majesty is the most beloved princess, how can you disregard the dignity of the country like this. His Royal Highness King Xian is the concubine of the Empress of the Great Tuoba Middle Palace, and his status is extremely ......noble," the other minister stood up and reprimanded.
Obviously, these people are all the Queen's people, and they are all supporting Najib.
"What about the heirs? Princess Ben already has a sweetheart. Elilian still refused to compromise at all.
A big debate about whether to be amiable or not was staged in this way.
The courtiers were arguing with each other at the bottom of the seat, and when they said it, they talked about the various advantages and disadvantages of Princess Elilian and Tuoba Yeze.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......"
The queen suddenly cried out loudly.
Liu Mengyan has been wondering why the queen and Najib have been silent, until she heard these screams of the queen, and her heart suddenly seemed to be provoked by something, and she could understand something!
Although Madame Zixi was not as shocked as the queen, her face also showed an anxious look.
"What's wrong with Your Majesty!" Finally someone asked.
"Someone! Carry Your Majesty back! Mrs. Zixi said with a change of color.
"Your Majesty is like this, I'm afraid it's not good." The queen said suddenly.
……
Everyone waited outside the king, each looking at each other, wondering what was going on with King Fran's body.
Tuoba Yeze and Tuoba Zeyan stood on the other side.
"King Fran is afraid that he is not in good health. I'm afraid that this Uzi country is about to welcome the new emperor! Tuoba Yeze stood with his hands in his hands, looking at a flower tree outside whose name he didn't know.
"Fifth brother, this is a bit early. King Fran was not in good health, but it wasn't right away. Tuoba Ze said.
"But when the main hall looked at him like that, his face was pale, and he was afraid that he was about to die." Tuoba Yeze looked at Tuoba Ze and said, "The sixth brother doesn't know what a dying person looks like!" ”
Tuoba Zeyan remembered the interception at the mouth of the gorge, and sneered: "I know, how can I not know." The main hall also knows the fear of being killed! Fifth brother, do you think I don't know what a dying person looks like? ”
"You woman, it's you, it's you who killed my Anda!" The queen pointed at Zixi and said sharply, the jewels on her fingers were particularly dazzling.
Zixi ignored her rant and continued to use needles on Fran.
"Come on, pull this woman down for me! It was she who killed the king! The queen threw down these words, and went to the door, facing the people outside.
"What does the queen mean by this?" Da Hui immediately said, "I haven't seen what my father's health is, and the queen is so honest, is there any premeditated plan a long time ago?" ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, you all know that Zixi has always been the king's healer, and no one knows how the king's health is except her?" The queen glanced at Dahui, but did not respond to his words, but said to the ministers who were standing at the door.
"Queen, immediately ask Mrs. Zixi to come out and tell me about the king's condition." A minister raised his hand and said, "The king's illness can't be left to Mrs. Zixi alone!" ”
"What do you mean, Lord Hadar?" Da Hui said dissatisfiedly, "Mother has always taken care of my father's body, and she has been conscientious for so many years. ”
"Hmph, at very different times, the minister has to think about the country of Uzi. The king's safety is at stake' for the kingdom of Uzi. Hadar said, "Let Mrs. Zixi come out and explain clearly, so that everyone can feel at ease." ”
"What Lord Hadar said is true." The queen also stood beside him and said.
Inside, Lady Zixi was still using needles on King Fran, while Elilian and Liu Mengyan stood by and watched nervously.
They didn't dare to disturb Madame Zixi at this moment, for fear of delaying her to save the king's life.
"Madame, how is the King? The people outside are afraid that they will rush in later! Liu Mengyan had been listening attentively to the movement outside, so she reminded Mrs. Zixi.
"Anda ......" Mrs. Zixi looked depressed, with tears in her eyes.
"Father, he ......," Elilian hurriedly pounced.
Liu Mengyan saw that the people outside were about to break in, and Mrs. Zixi was obviously helpless, and the person on the bed was already destined for Huangquan......
Liu Mengyan couldn't help but start rubbing against each other with her index and middle fingers.
The king died suddenly! I'm afraid that someone has done something! No matter what, Mrs. Zixi is only afraid that she will bear the brunt of being questioned! After all, she has been in charge of King Fran's body!
Now, if King Fran dies like this, Najib is the rightful heir to the throne. If Dahui raises the anti-flag, it will be a real rebellion!
"Madame! Now is not the time to grieve, the king cannot die now, we must let him 'live'! Liu Mengyan walked over, leaned over and whispered in Mrs. Zixi's ear.
Mrs. Zixi trembled, glanced at Liu Mengyan sideways, and said in a low voice, "He's dead!" ”
A trace of sadness flashed in Liu Ruli's eyes, but she knew that if she didn't take action, things would go in a direction that was not favorable to Dahui.
"Madame, listen to me!" Liu Mengyan whispered to Mrs. Zixi again.
Lady Zixi's face turned from surprise to horror, and finally to calm.
"Madame, you can only take such a risk. If they were allowed to rush in at this moment, Najib would be the rightful heir. If Prince Dahui misses the opportunity, the odds of victory are reduced by half. Liu Mengyan said.
Lady Zixi naturally knew the meaning of these words.
"Don't be noisy. Mrs. Ben came out. Lady Zixi walked to the door as usual.
As soon as she spoke, the crowd that had been arguing with each other immediately fell silent.
Liu Mengyan saw it in her eyes and said in her heart: Mrs. Zixi's prestige is probably higher than that of this queen.
"Madame Zixi, how is the king's health?" Hadar was the first again.
"The king is weak, and his days are numbered." Mrs. Zixi said with some sadness.
A hint of surprise flashed in the queen's eyes, and she said, "You are talking nonsense! King...... Really, no? ”
Obviously, she put enough lethal poison in that pastry!
"What does this mean, Queen? But don't you hope your father is dead? Dahui keenly captured the meaning of the queen's words.
"That's not what I meant. Lady Zixi, what happened to the king? The queen brushed aside his words and asked.
"The king is weak. It's already unconscious. I'm going to need time before he comes back to his senses. What are you trying to do here? Mrs. Zixi swept away everyone, and said with a pair of beautiful eyes without anger and self-authority.
"The king is in good health, and I will wait. Is it in the hope that the king's condition will be more serious? "Someone started to come out and fight back.
"It's better for us to go back and wait until my mother wakes up my father." Dahui immediately said.
Najib exchanged a look with the queen, and Najib clearly had doubts in his eyes, but he couldn't ask anything more at the moment.
"How long will it take for the lady to wake the king up?" Hadar received the queen's glance and hurriedly asked.
"Tomorrow. It depended on the king's physical condition. Stand down, all of you. I'm going to use a needle! You should wake up tomorrow at the latest! Mrs. Zixi said.
"Good. Since Madame said it was tomorrow, let's wait until tomorrow. "Hadar Road.
"Queen, please go out and rest as well. I'm going to give the king a needle! Lady Zixi said to the queen, "Except for Eliliane and Dahui, I don't want anyone else to be there!" ”
The queen glared at Zixi angrily, but at this moment, she thought: Then wait until tomorrow, I will see what other plans you have!
At that time, Tuoba Yeze and Tuoba Zeyan stood aside and listened, although they were the great Tuoba princes, they didn't have much to intervene at the moment. After all, this is the state affair of the Uzzi country itself.
Everyone had to disperse, and those who should leave the palace also went out of the palace. After all, this is the palace, and the ministers have to go out.
Liu Mengyan naturally left the palace with Tuoba Zeyan.
Sitting in the carriage, Tuoba Zeyan said, "Is the king already there?" ”
Liu Mengyan nodded.
"Then you still dare to let Madam Zixi say that?" Tuoba Zeyan blamed his mouth, but his eyes were clearly appreciative.
"If you don't do this, Prince Dahui will be passive." Liu Mengyan said, "The difficult thing now is how to send Mr. Hua to the palace again." The concubine and Mrs. Zixi should have said that Mr. Hua must be sent in tonight. ”
