Prince Huan still didn't give up, and continued to ask, "What about the eldest sister?" She is so arrogant and domineering, why do you have to make her the crown princess? ”

The empress was stunned for a moment, raised her head, and looked cautiously at the empress.

The empress didn't look at her, and closed her eyes as if she was enduring something to the limit.

Prince Huan still asked.

The Empress suddenly erupted, "Enough! None of this is your concern. I just want to ask you now, whose position are you on now? Kite Country, or Da Qi? ”

"Myself." Prince Huan said without hesitation.

The empress snorted coldly, didn't say anything more, and waved her big hand to signal her retreat.

The father-in-law in front of the emperor shook off the dust, "Retreat from the dynasty-"

The ministers turned around to leave, and Suo Ye occupied the palace gate first, "Have you forgotten that there is still gunpowder buried in the palace?" If you're not afraid of death, go out! ”

The ministers who had raised their legs silently lowered their legs again.

The empress looked incredulous, "The palace is so big, how much gunpowder does it take to bury a circle, can you do it alone?" ”

"Your Majesty is so smart. If you're so smart, why be held back to answer these difficult questions? ”

The empress had a cold face, "I just forgot about it for a while." ”

Suo Ye gloated, "As for the gunpowder, there really isn't so much." But it's more than enough to blow up a few of you. ”

He smirked wickedly and pulled out four thunderbolts, which he sandwiched between his fingers.

The empress was furious, "Crazy, you are simply a madman!" ”

Suo Ye disagreed, "Hey, I'm just a child without a father and a mother, even if I die with you, I won't lose." Fifth Highness, do you want to be an empress, think about it? Suo Ye looked at Li Qingqing evilly.

Li Qingqing almost got stuck in a mouthful of old blood, "I want you to talk more!" ”

"I'm doing it for your good, too! For the sake of Prince Huan! He continued to say nonchalantly, "Prince Huan interceded with the empress of the Kite Kingdom in order to save your life, as long as you are the empress, the Kite Kingdom will no longer raise troops to attack."

If you are not the empress, the Kite Kingdom will join Beixing to march into the army, anyway, the left and right are powerful against the Kite Kingdom, and the reason why you are so troublesome is just because Prince Huan doesn't want you to die. ”

After Suo Ye finished speaking, he pointed to the empress on the throne and snorted, "Hey, did you just say that you had to marry the second prince away for the sake of the overall situation." So should we also think about the overall situation now, abdicate and make way for Xian? ”

The empress's face was ugly.

The face of the minister of civil and military affairs was not good-looking, and the princess was even more angry, and she used her eyes to Ling Chi Suoye, but this kid never looked at her.

"I'll count five, think for yourself!"

"One"

The civil and military officials exchanged their heads, "What should I do, what do you say?" ”

Another minister shook his head, "The reason why the Kite Kingdom is so happy to make the Fifth Highness the emperor is just that I hope that the Fifth Highness will listen to their orders after ascending the throne, and to put it bluntly, they want to carve up Daqi without spending a single soldier and clan." ”

"Hmph, it's better to die than to live in such humiliation. The hundreds of thousands of troops of my Daqi are not vegetarians, and I believe that they would rather die on the battlefield! ”

"Two"

Some ministers shook their bodies, "But, but as the old saying goes, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood to stay in the green mountains." The Great Qi Kingdom is in the hands of the Fifth Highness, and it is still Great Qi, although it may be humiliating, but the land is still there. If they are allowed to attack and rob hard, our Daqi will really be gone. ”

Some ministers agreed, "Gou Jian was captured back then, and he tried his courage on his back, and in the end, he didn't revive the country?" I think the strategy of the means of the Five Highnesses should be able to govern the country. Maybe in a few years, Da Qi will definitely be able to bring the dead back to life in her hands. ”

"Three"

Several ministers discussed and discussed, and some thought that the eldest husband could bend and stretch, and as long as the integrity of the land was guaranteed, it would not matter even if he was a vassal of the Kite Country.

These ministers decided to advise the empress to abdicate and make way for Xian.

"Four"

There are also ministers who feel that they would rather die standing than live on their knees, and they firmly disagree.

"Five" Suo Ye finished counting.

The ministers have also concluded their discussions.

Some ministers knelt down and begged the empress to abdicate and make way for Xian, some of these ministers were the empress's party, some were the empress's party, and some were Li Qingqing's own party, and at this moment they didn't have partisanship, just out of consideration of the overall situation.

There are also some ministers who did not force the palace.

Among these ministers, there are also people from Li Qingqing's party, led by Cui Tianfang, the imperial historian, Cui Tianfang glanced at Li Qingqing and signaled to give an accurate word.

Li Qingqing's eyes signaled him not to speak, but Cui Tianfang did not express his position, and the ministers who looked up to him did not express their position.

At this time, Li Qingqing had to resolutely and decisively express his attitude, "Mother Emperor, the son is willing to swear allegiance to Daqi for the rest of his life, assist the eldest sister, and have no intention of plotting to usurp the throne." ”

"You swear!" I didn't expect the empress to come to this stubble.

Li Qingqing was stunned, everyone was stunned, it's time for the empress to refuse to abdicate and let Xian still be able to move right and back?

Li Qingqing has no right to say no at all, so she can only swear, "I swear, I, Li Qingqing, will be loyal to Daqi in this life, loyal to the mother emperor and the eldest emperor, if there is any violation of heaven and earth!" ”

The empress also added, "If there is any violation, the world's celebrities will punish her—"

Li Qingqing's heart was cold, the mother queen really didn't hurt her at all, she choked up, she made a more resolute and louder voice, "If there is a violation, the world will punish her-"

After speaking, her eyes were a little moist, and the emotions surging in her heart were mixed, yes, now she doesn't even have the qualifications for Xiao to think about the imperial power.

Prince Huan's eyes followed her, saw a touch of wetness in her eyes, and sighed helplessly, you want to win the world, and you want to go rightly, how can there be such a good thing in the world. If you miss a good opportunity today, you will have to be slaughtered by others one day.

Prince Huan glared at her with hatred, turned around and walked outside the main hall.

After Suo Ye waited for him to leave, he immediately threw out a thunderbolt, and the hall suddenly exploded into a puff of white smoke, and everyone was terrified.

In the sound of panic, Suo Ye dragged out Li Qingqing and ran out, and then threw out another thunderbolt, which was exactly the same as the previous batch, the previous batch was just white smoke, but this batch had fire.

After he dragged Li Qingqing out, the hall was already in chaos, and all kinds of escort sounds and helpers came together.

And Cao Xun, who was the captain of the horse and led the Imperial Guard, hesitated, and did not rush into the palace to rescue him at the first time, but stood outside the hall, his eyes followed Li Qingqing, as if he had something to say.

Li Qingqing looked at him, and Cao Xun said softly, "Our Cao family is willing to follow the Fifth Highness!" ”

Li Qingqing was dumbfounded, but he only hesitated for a moment before ordering him to go to the rescue.

Cao Xun didn't move.

Li Qingqing scolded, "Stupid! Do you think there are only Janissaries in the Mother Palace? If you don't rush in at this moment, your Cao family will be finished! ”

Cao Xun then led his troops to rush in.

In fact, in addition to the palace guards, the empress also has a special army, called the Phoenix Protector Army. This army only obeys the empress.
