"That's enough, it won't take that long!" He bowed his head slightly, and then said worriedly:

"However, no matter if it is half a year or a year, as the empress, you can't be a director for such a long time, and I'm afraid that there will be a lot of redundancy in the country! What are you going to do? ”

Fang Yuqing pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind: "Since this is the case, I will issue an edict!" Let the two countries merge ahead of schedule, and then appoint you as the regent of the prison country, and oversee all internal and external affairs! How is it? ”

"What? Will this work? Ye Qingyuan couldn't help but be stunned, this suggestion was really unexpected by him!

"Nothing, it's not feasible!" Fang Yuqing said with a smile,

"According to the past practice of the Empire, when the Empress is not a councilor, she can indeed appoint a person to exercise supreme power on behalf of her for a short time! After all, you have been a king for a while, and you have experience in governance, so there is nothing wrong with such an arrangement! ”

Seeing that Ye Qingyuan was still trying to persuade again, she said softly: "Who can people trust besides you at present?" Mr. Yan's situation is worse than mine! The rest of them are not capable enough to convince the public! Why are you going to let me get it done? ”

"This ...... All right! He no longer hesitated, and immediately agreed, saying that at present, there is only this method that is the most feasible! She didn't have much time to waste!

Yu understood that the empress immediately summoned the commanders who could still act normally, and informed everyone of her decision!

"The minister supports His Majesty's decision!" The deputy commander of the Guards Legion, Mukiyoya, immediately agreed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Qing, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, hesitated for a while, but also expressed his obedience. The rest of the royal worshippers, as well as the mid-level commanders, all expressed their support!

"Alright! At present, the command of all legions is in the hands of Prince Yun, and you must obey his orders from now on! "Fang Yuqing said majestically,

"I will immediately issue an edict to the Imperial Assembly, the Ministry of War, the House of Superiors, and the Cabinet! From now on, all domestic and foreign affairs will be handled by the regent of the prison country! ”

"Inform Wang Yuexiang, commander-in-chief of the Southern Xinjiang Military Region, and the governors of various provinces, and let them come over to meet them immediately!"

The matter was settled in this way, but the drastic changes that took place in the imperial political arena immediately afterwards were unexpected for them!

In less than half a day, a piece of news that shocked the world spread from the imperial capital to the entire sea of stars:

Her Majesty the Empress was attacked and killed by unknown forces on the way back after visiting the Daomang Kingdom, which is suspected to have been done by the lord of the Daomang Kingdom, Ye Qingyuan, in collusion with a different civilization! The Empire severely condemned Ye Qingyuan's despicable deeds in the face of the world's condemnation, and announced that it would sever all diplomatic relations with the Daomang Kingdom and declare war on it at the right time!

The queen has suffered an accident, and the whole country is grieving! However, the country can not be left without an owner for a day, through the initiative of the Imperial Cabinet Prime Minister Wang Guangchang, the United Imperial Parliament, many officials of the House of Superiors, jointly supported the former emperor's son-in-law Fang Yuan as the new emperor, because he is not yet an adult, by his biological mother, the Empress Dowager Zhu Zhaoyuan and Prime Minister Wang Guangchang jointly supervised the regent!

Another piece of bad news is that Wang Yuexiang, commander-in-chief of the Southern Xinjiang Military Region, and the governors were on their way to the Hajj when they suddenly turned back halfway! Retreat to the Southern Frontier Universe Region!

"Sure enough! Then I know that it was a good thing done by that vicious woman! Fang Yuqing snorted coldly,

"Before leaving the imperial capital, I had already arranged for someone to 'accidentally die' her at the right time! I guess she still hasn't died! Either there's something wrong with my person, or maybe she still has some unknown hole cards! ”

"So what should I do now?" Ye Qingyuan asked worriedly.

The virtues of those two people, he knows, what will happen to the empire when it falls into their hands, it is really hard to say! It's not going to be a good thing anyway!

But the Empress's state is already very weak, and she must immediately enter the medical cabin to freeze and sleep, and she can't delay any longer!

"So be it! I'll issue a few more orders through the Hypervoid Contact, and then it's up to you! "She didn't seem to be very lost,

"If you really can't do it, you can go by yourself...... Let's do it! ”

"I hope that when I wake up, this empire will still be in your hands!"

The southern frontier of the empire, the sand gull universe region.

In the center of the Imperial Counterinsurgency Legion, the current commander-in-chief, Marshal Wang Yuexiang, locked himself in a secret room and ordered his adjutant not to disturb anyone who asked to see him!

There was no light in the cabin, and it was pitch black, but for the marshal who had the fierce combat power of the dry star, this bit of darkness was nothing! What he really cares about is the shadow in his heart!

In front of his eyes, there were two edicts. One was sent by the empress, asking him to immediately take the newly appointed governor of the twelve provinces of southern Xinjiang to the Daomang Kingdom to meet Ye Qingyuan, who had been crowned regent of the prison country, and obey all his orders!

The other copy was sent by the imperial capital, from the hand of the Queen Mother Zhu Zhaoyuan, but in the name of the new emperor! Let him immediately swear allegiance to the new emperor, and prepare to conquer the Daomang Kingdom and avenge the empress!

In order to win the hearts of the people, Zhu Zhaoyuan crowned him as a first-class marquis in the edict, rewarded him with a lot of property, and even his family in the imperial capital also gained a lot of benefits!

There was a difference of several hours between the arrival of the two edicts, and he was originally going to meet the empress, but halfway through, the edict from the imperial capital was urgently sent to his command ship by his cronies! In this way, he vaguely knew the current situation of the empire!

The empress's accident was completely premeditated! Moreover, there must be very hidden spies in the fleet of the Praetorian Guard! Otherwise, that woman in the imperial capital wouldn't have gotten the news so quickly!

The palace has been destroyed, and the fleet of the Praetorian Guard no longer has a super void communication device that can directly reach the country, only maybe it is transferred through a secret stronghold in the southern part of the empire and sent back to the imperial capital! This means that even under his hands, he has eyes and ears from the imperial capital, and the energy is quite strong! I can even hide it from him!

At present, he is faced with a dilemma: to obey the empress's edict and surrender the command of more than 3 million warships of all kinds and more than 100 abnormal legions; Or accept the edict of the imperial capital and become a strong man who actually looks at the side that supports the army!

In all fairness, he was a little resistant to subserviencing the young man on his own! Although the other side is a genius of the empire for a hundred years, he has made outstanding achievements, and he has worked with him for a period of time before, and he gets along well! However, it is another matter to make yourself a vassal to him!

If the empress was still there, he would naturally have nothing to say. However, the current life and death of the empress is uncertain, and it is not clear whether it will be able to recover in the future! Judging from the current situation, even if the Empress can wake up again one day in the future, she will lose control of the domestic political situation!

Zhu Zhaoyuan in the imperial capital will never give her a chance to turn the tables, and she must step up her actions at the moment to eliminate all the forces loyal to her in the country!

So, obey the orders of the imperial capital and pay allegiance to that child who is only a teenager? Seems like a worse choice! The child is far from being an adult, and there is no way to know what kind of heart he is! But there was something about the woman...... It's obviously not a good thing, so don't mention it!

The other side is currently trying to entrap him, but because of the military power in his hands!

Since neither path is feasible, there is only a third option - self-reliance!

In all fairness, he was loyal to the Empire and the Empress, and in a situation that was only expected, he would not have taken some undeserved meaning seriously as he did now! However, now that the empire is actually ownerless, he has to think about the future of himself and his cronies!

If you stand on your own, your previous problems will be solved! He actually controls one-fifth of the empire's military power, and has the vast territory of the twelve provinces in southern Xinjiang that was cleared not long ago, and more than 300 cosmic regions! As long as the flag is changed, it will immediately become a fierce and powerful country!

The idea is tempting! All he had to do was make up his mind to become the founding master! In other words, that Daomang Kingdom only has more than 300 cosmic regions to this day! And most of them are backward cosmic regions, and they can't be compared with him at all, so why should he bow to the other side?

Human ambition is a wonderful thing, once it is born, it will rise up like a raging flame, driving the people who were originally in peace to do some unreasonable crazy actions! And don't worry about what will happen to you!

Of course, he has not yet been completely carried away by ambition, and the remaining glimmer of reason in his heart tells him: now is not the time to do this! After all, not all of these legions were his descendants, most of them were drawn from various major theaters of the empire and temporarily placed under his command. I guess that in order to get out of that dangerous step, these legions must be pacified!

Another problem is that if it is now self-reliant, it will immediately become the focus of enmity between the two forces! The woman in the imperial capital would not let him go, and the young man in the Daomang Kingdom would not let him go! At that time, he will be attacked from both sides, and the internal will be unstable, no matter how powerful he is, he will not be able to cope with such a crisis!

Therefore, at present, it is necessary to make a false appointment with a certain force, swear allegiance on the surface, but in fact wait for the situation to change! Think about this step when it's right!

That night Qingyuan was not a fuel-efficient lamp, once he was loyal, his own military power could not be kept! Therefore, I can only talk to that woman, and use the disadvantages of the other party's unstable foundation and urgent need of support to bargain and strive for more benefits!

It seems that the act of issuing an order to withhold all the edicts sent by His Majesty to the country is undoubtedly very correct! It is necessary to convince the forces in the country that something has happened to your Majesty! In this way, the domestic situation will develop in the direction of its own hope! Your own interests can be maximized!

It is estimated that after touching this layer, his heart is suddenly much more steady!

Tianhua universe area, the main hall of the imperial palace.

Zhu Zhaoyuan took the prince Fang Yuan to sit on the tall imperial throne, with a proud and arrogant face!

In the spacious hall, thousands of courtiers have arrived, looking at the mother and son on the throne, silent!

The news of the Empress's accident is too sudden, and there are too many doubts that are difficult to explain! In the message forwarded back through southern Xinjiang, many of the key details are vague! According to the scrutiny does not stand up to scrutiny!

Why can such a big thing be confirmed because of a piece of news that is difficult to distinguish between true and false? Or even about to gather all the ministers and support the new king?

It makes sense, it's all just a matter of saying! There is no way to give an account to the trillion citizens of the empire inside and outside the empire!

Moreover, this matter has always been carried out by the faction of former Prime Minister Wang Guangchang, and the others are only spectators! Naturally, this made them extremely dissatisfied!

Therefore, when they were summoned to the imperial palace and heard that Wang Guangchang announced that he would support the prince Fang Yuan as the new monarch of the empire as the new prime minister of the empire and auxiliary minister, the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the ministers finally broke out!

Yu Gang, the minister of the Imperial Supervision Yuan, was the first to attack: "The Queen Mother, and Count Wang Guangchang, what happened to Her Majesty the Empress during her visit to the Daomang Kingdom?" Just by virtue of a piece of news that is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, it is not at all in accordance with the imperial decree to conclude that His Majesty has met with an accident and that he will also support a new king! We hope you'll give us a convincing statement! ”

Zhu Zhaoyuan's face changed slightly, straightened his expression slightly, and encouraged him to pretend to be sad:

"Yu Qing, Her Majesty the Empress was ambushed and killed by the Daomang Kingdom in collusion with different racial forces! This has been confirmed! The country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and the ministers are elected by the ministers to support the prince to inherit the throne! This is a reasonable thing to do, do you have any different opinions? ”

"How can the news of His Majesty's death be confirmed? Why can such a big matter be rushed to a conclusion without a detailed investigation? So sloppy, how to tell the emperor at home and abroad? Yu Gang rebuked angrily,

"There is also the matter of supporting the new monarch, which must be appointed by the former emperor to ascend the throne, if it is not designated, then it must be selected by the royal clan council, all members of the imperial cabinet, the imperial upper house and the top level of the parliament can be decided after joint consultation!"

"And at present, just by virtue of a former prime minister who has long since left his post and a group of officials who can't get on the stage, who gave you such power to decide such a major matter without authorization?"

With his reprimand, Zhu Zhaoyuan's face became more and more ugly, and finally patted the bookcase in front of him, and said, "...... That's enough! ”

"Are you still finished? Do you really think that this palace will not dare to deal with you? ”

Wang Guangchang said with a smile: "Lord Yu Gang, Your Majesty is dead, and the new monarch is established, this matter is a foregone conclusion, don't come out to stir up again, right?" The prince is the bloodline of the previous emperor, and it is natural to inherit the throne, don't everyone think so? ”

"Everyone? Who are you? Another old man with a solemn and old-fashioned expression stood up and reprimanded,

"Is it the Manchu Dynasty Minister, or is it your Wang Guangchang's gang of friends? What right do you, an idle earl who has left his post, infiltrate state affairs? ”

Wang Guangchang's face turned a little blue: "Mr. Sorag, do you also have any objections?" As the prince of the prince, he originally enjoyed the right of first inheritance, and such an approach did not violate the tradition of the upper court! ”

The Speaker of the Imperial House of Lords, Sorag, snorted coldly: "Originally, it was not a violation! However, it is not your turn to speak at all, and even the Queen Mother should not infiltrate such a big thing! None of your practices are in accordance with the laws of the Empire! ”

"And!" Sorag's words changed,

"I have received a new edict here, forwarded by someone from the Royal Inspectorate, which says: The Empress is not dead, but she is injured and cannot serve! Because of this, the imperial husband Ye Qingyuan was crowned as the regent of the prison country, and he exercised the highest power on his behalf! The authenticity of the edict has been confirmed! ”

"Therefore, what you are doing is simply rebellion!"

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were in an uproar! (To be continued.) )
