Chapter 204: In Power

Qing Xue saw that they didn't speak, so she could only turn her head and ask, "How should this matter be decided according to the prime minister?" ”

Zhuge Ming was able to sit on the position of prime minister, naturally not all by loyalty, seeing the "hot potato" thrown towards him, he could only stand up and say in fear: "Forgive the old minister for being incompetent!" ”

Qing Xue had expected this, so she only waved her hand to signal him to sit down, then turned to the other side and asked, "Lord Shangshu, does he have a countermeasure?" ”

Yang Shangshu knew that the queen in front of her was not an incompetent and mediocre woman, although she asked like this, she must have already made a plan in her heart, so she also got up and said: "The queen is the mother of the world, and this matter is all up to the mother." ”

Seeing this, the rest of the ministers also stood up and said in unison: "It's all up to the mother." ”

Seeing this, Qing Xue pretended to look embarrassed, and motioned for them to sit down before she spoke again: "Chiyun is still different from Pi Lan in the end, I have always been a harem and are not allowed to interfere in politics, and it is a last resort for the palace to sit here, how can I be the master in the affairs of the country?" ”

As soon as this sentence of retreating into advance was spoken, the ministers had already comprehended Qing Xue's meaning by seven or eight points. Before the prime minister and Yang Shangshu could reply, Inspector Yu Shi Wen Qingyun got up and proposed: "Niangniang, forgive Weichen for his courage, the rules set by the ancestors must be followed, but now Chiyun is worried about internal and external troubles, and this extraordinary period can no longer be confined to these subsections." ”

Qing Xue heard him say this, but she didn't know what she meant, and only asked, "What does Master Wen mean?" ”

"Weichen thinks that Chiyun can follow Pilan's law, set up the little prince as the new emperor, and then be ruled by Niangniang."

Wen Qingyun probably felt that he had guessed Qing Xue's thoughts, and said this loudly.

In his opinion, the matter of Mu Jinxuan sending people to poison the Queen Mother has been confirmed, and there is no possibility of turning over. And although Mu Jun is young, there will always be a day when he grows up, and the queen naturally hopes that her son will inherit the throne, so there will be no problem with this treasure pressing on Mu Jun.

Qing Xue listened to this but did not rush to respond, she was sure in her heart that Mu Chun would come back soon, and Mu Jun did not need to be a new emperor, all she wanted was to get the right to govern with the approval and support of her courtiers. Only in this way can we preside over the situation in an open and honest manner, and facilitate the stabilization of this stormy situation.

Zhang Hang, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, saw that Qingxue's face was pale, so he also had the courage to compliment: "Lord Wen said very well, the queen's mother's talent in governing the world is obvious to all, and I respectfully ask the lady to preside over the overall situation and set up the little prince as the new emperor." ”

Hearing these words, the prime minister and Yang Shangshu did not immediately express their position, and the rest of the courtiers acted according to the faces of these two people, so the scene was cold for a while.

Qing Xue knew that although these ministers did not dare to say it directly, they still had more or less scruples in their hearts. Therefore, he just smiled lightly and said: "The emperor is just out of the palace to recuperate from his injuries, and he will come back soon, so naturally there is no need to appoint a new emperor." It's just that Chiyun has just returned to the country, and the affairs of the government are piling up, so you must choose a person with the ability and prestige to preside over the overall situation as soon as possible. ”

"If you talk about ability and prestige, it is naturally the most suitable prime minister."

Yang Shangshu proposed, and the rest of the officials also nodded yes.

But the prime minister himself was hesitant, but knelt down in fear and said: "The old minister does not dare to take on this heavy responsibility, there is another person who is better than the old minister in terms of talent and prestige." ”

Hearing this, Qing Xue asked casually, "Oh? Who is the Prime Minister referring to? ”

"This person is Niangniang herself, Niangniang has won the trust of the emperor, and she is the biological mother of the little prince, it is very appropriate for Niangniang to handle the affairs of the court, please Niangniang is in charge of the government!"

After Zhuge Ming finished speaking, the ministers also got up and knelt down and said: "Please take charge of the government!" ”

Seeing this, Qing Xue no longer pretended, only raised her hand slightly and said, "Lords get up first, since the prime minister and all the adults have said so, this palace will take this matter down." It's just that this palace is not as skilled in handling political affairs as adults, and I hope you will mention it more in the future. ”

Hearing this, Wen Qingyun took the lead and said: "Niangniang's words are serious, Weichen is willing to follow Niangniang to serve Chiyun as a dog and horse." ”

The rest of the ministers also responded in unison: "The ministers are willing to work for Chiyun to serve the dogs and horses!" ”

------

After the ministers left, Qing Xue summoned the little guards who were waiting outside the hall in and ordered: "Go and find a way to find out the background of the inspector's imperial history and the book of the Ministry of Rites." ”

"Yes!" Xiao Weizi retreated.

These things could have been directly asked to the wolf soldiers, but at this moment, Ding Qi and Mu Chun were definitely not there, and the wolf soldiers had no way to report to Qing Xue even if they knew, so she could only order the slaves to do it. Fortunately, Xiao Weizi had been serving by Mu Chundu's side before, and he was also smart and conscientious, so he could be regarded as a credible minion.

And Qing Xue remembered that it was not a whim to check these two people, but their courteous performance in the palace just now made Qing Xue interested. Ministers walk in officialdom, like walking on thin ice, naturally they must have a seven-trick exquisite heart, and they can understand the meaning of the top in order to rise to the top, such a person is also the person Qingxue needs most at the moment.

If these two people have innocent backgrounds, Qing Xue can take them for her own use. If you encounter such things again in the future, you can rely on their mouths to express your will, and this will also save you a lot of trouble.

However, Qing Xue was a little puzzled about Zhuge Ming's sudden change of attitude today, only to see that the ministers were all looking forward to Zhuge Ming, Qing Xue thought that the affairs of the government could only be handed over to him, but she never imagined that Zhuge Ming would propose to be in charge of her at the critical moment.
