Chapter 493 is fast
Soon, the bell of the retreat was knocked several times by the little monk outside the council hall, and now it seems that it is time to leave, looking at the thick stack of documents in front of him, Mu Xiwan sighed softly, it seems that he has to take it home and read it slowly, it turns out that this is the Son of Heaven, so not easy.
It's no wonder that after the crown prince was established, the emperor's heavy responsibility was a little lighter.
Thinking like this, Mu Xiwan silently rolled his eyes at the emperor in his heart, although he was very grateful to the emperor for letting him take over Feng Chengyi to handle the affairs of the palace first, but when he thought of Feng Chengyi's usual daily work to deal with the government and politics, and because of these sesame-sized things being involved, he couldn't help but be angry.
"Cui'er, pack these things up properly, and then we'll go back to the East Palace."
Cui'er nodded, and hurriedly went up to make the paperwork on the table neat, without looking at it much, and then quickly followed Mu Xiwan's pace towards the door, Mu Xiwan saw that it was already noon outside, the sun was a little hot during the day, and there were dense small beads of sweat on her forehead after a while.
As soon as Mu Xiwan wanted to hurry back to the mansion in the carriage, he saw several ministers walking towards him, all with menacing expressions on their faces, as if they wanted to eat themselves alive, Mu Xiwan took a closer look, and the people in this included the people who came to greet him on the day he returned to the house.
The leader is the Governor Gu of Dali Temple, who is fifty or sixty years old this year, and can be said to be an old minister in the court, but it seems that since Feng Chengyi took the throne, he has developed his own power in private, and he is definitely not from the prince's side.
This Governor Gu is the person who asked the court just now to make the little prince the crown prince, and the group of old ministers behind him who look upright are all like him with the same wolf ambitions as the invisible people.
Thinking so, Mu Xiwan sighed softly helplessly, but still walked up with a generous smile, but he didn't expect that several ministers had no meaning of rules at all, they all stood one by one, and they didn't salute, but said aggressively:
"Crown Princess, why did you stop us from appointing a new little prince as the crown prince in the main hall just now? Is it because of your jealousy? A woman's family should not interfere in court politics in the first place, but it is only because the emperor listened to your words, so he has returned to today's point, the crown princess, this is not a little bit related to women's jealousy! ”
Another minister next to him burst into tears when he heard Governor Gu say such a bitter word, and suddenly felt that he was not planning for his wolf ambitions, but for the sake of the country's social welfare, so he immediately stood up and continued:
"Yes, the crown prince is nowhere to be found, according to the current situation, it can be said that there is little hope, and I hope that the crown princess will not stop us from setting up a new prince, and the new prince will be established sooner or later, if the crown princess supports the little prince to take the throne now, you will definitely be rich and glorious in the future."
Hearing this, Mu Xiwan couldn't help but be angry, but seeing that there were more and more onlookers in the palace, he resisted the urge to scold them fiercely, but raised his eyebrows, waved his fan, and said:
"Really? So which of you got the news that the crown prince is dead? Do you know that this crime of framing the death of the Son of Heaven is to connect the nine clans, if I don't listen, what can you do to me? ”
When he said "Zhulian Nine Clans", Mu Xiwan glanced at the ministers around him with a sharp gaze, and when he mentioned the authority of the royal family, all of them were shortened, and they frowned, and they didn't say a word, only Governor Gu still glared at Mu Xiwan fiercely while not giving up, and said:
"Crown Princess, you are so stubborn, there is no good end, no matter what, it will be a matter of time before the crown prince is abolished!"
After saying this, those ministers snorted coldly, and walked away, and several little palace maids next to them were all talking, Mu Xiwan was so angry that this group of old men who not only had wolf ambitions, but also were unreasonable, and just went down in one breath, or Cui'er asked those palace maids to take care of their mouths, and Mu Xiwan took Cui'er back to the East Palace.
These old old-fashioned ones really need to be treated well after Feng Chengyi comes back.
As for himself in the past two days, he still hasn't received Feng Chengyi's letter, this person really seems to have evaporated out of thin air, where is he? Thinking of this, Mu Xiwan's heart instantly fell to the bottom, and his heart was pinched fiercely.
Mu Xiwan returned to the East Palace, sat down and thought about it, and suddenly became much more enlightened, now this situation in the court, if it goes on like this, it will definitely not work, and he can no longer maintain a weak image, and he must replace Feng Chengyi to maintain the order of the entire Darong.
When Cui'er just wanted to come in and dress up Mu Xiwan, she found that Mu Xiwan was already sitting on the bed, her eyes were shining, and what was reflected in them was a light that could not be concealed.
"Cui'er, you will wait for me at the door after you go to court in the future, and listen to how I can shut up those ministers."
When Cui'er saw Mu Xiwan's appearance, she immediately knew that Mu Xiwan had a way, but the red blood in her eyes couldn't be hidden, she must have been worried about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince last night.
Cui'er sighed softly, but still concealed her worries, and walked towards the council hall with Mu Xiwan.
The council hall is very close to the East Palace, but it is only ten minutes away, but if those ministers come here, they need to come at least a full hour in advance, but when Mu Xi arrived late, the ministers were already waiting in the council hall, and they all looked at Mu Xiwan with fierce eyes, and only a few loyal ministers looked at Mu Xiwan worriedly.
Mu Xiwan stepped forward, although she didn't need to wear court clothes, but she needed to dress up seriously, today is a change from the gentle dress of the past, the red skirt, the black shawl, the skirt is embroidered with a peony and crane that symbolize the status of the royal family, it is very majestic.
"Ministers, I am the crown princess, and I am still the presiding officer today, listen to me."
Seeing that the ministers below did not speak for a while, Mu Xiwan smiled slightly, and said in a tone that could not be ignored:
"The prince is not dead, if that is really the case, we want to see people in life, and we want to see corpses in death, and we should talk about the establishment of the prince in another matter, and Wang Zhen'er wants to murder the emperor, and the prince she gave birth to is now also guilty and ineligible to inherit the throne, why, do you also have the intention of murdering the emperor?"
At this point, there was no one to speak in the ground, and there was nothing to do all morning, and several ministers had their own concerns.
After the court, Mu Xiwan hurried to the imperial study, and saw the emperor sitting there in a precarious position, and immediately reported everything today to 1510, the emperor listened to it, nodded at the same time, and said loudly:
"You handled it very well, those people who took advantage of this gossip to say that the prince was dead and took the opportunity to seek benefits are really hateful."
