The sudden news made Xie Zaixing stunned.

He had just returned from Chen Han, and he wanted to tell Zhang Cheng the good news, but he never expected that Zhang Cheng would be assassinated by the palace maid.

He only felt dizzy, if Da Zhou was not led by Zhang Zhou, it would be equivalent to the dragons without a leader.

The crown prince Zhang Fuchu knelt in the lobby wearing linen and filial piety, and the queen concubine was crying silently.

Even Zhang Cheng's younger brother couldn't stop crying.

Xie Zaixing knelt on the ground and wept bitterly, "Your Majesty, Weichen is back!" ”

Zhang Fuchu saw Xie Zaixing, his face was also happy, and he hurriedly said, "Xie Xiang, you are finally back." ”

Xie Zaixing cried and asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what is going on?" ”

Zhang Fuchu said: "Last night, a total of thirteen palace maids joined forces to communicate with some eunuchs......

After listening, Xie Zaixing felt incredible.

It turned out that Zhang Cheng received Xie Zaixing's letter, and when he was happy, he went to Linxing Xiunu, but he got drunk.

But what I didn't expect was that the maids beside the show girl were assassins, and these people had been in the palace for many years, and no one expected them to attack.

And those eunuchs are the food of these palace maids, and the so-called food is a fake husband and wife.

These people are connected in the palace, and some of the things that happen in the palace are basically impossible to hide from them.

These people teamed up to assassinate Zhang Cheng, and the most incredible thing for Xie Zaixing was that all those assassins disappeared.

Xie Zaixing clenched his fists, "How do these damn things protect Your Majesty?" ”

Zhang Fuchu pulled Xie Zaixing aside and said: "Xie Xiang, now that my father died suddenly, the dragons have no leader, and the court still wants Xie Zaixing to preside over the overall situation." ”

Xie Zaixing hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious, His Majesty is gone, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should ascend the throne." ”

Zhang Fuchu was silent for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Xie Xiang, the matter of ascending the throne is not trivial.

Now that there are many important ministers in the court, and my younger brothers have their own ambitions and powers, if I rush to the throne, I am afraid that it will cause even greater strife.

Xie Xiang, I need Xie Xiang's wisdom and support to jointly resolve internal and external crises. ”

Xie Zaixing was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the prince to value himself so much.

But he knew that at this moment, the affairs of the imperial court needed more stable and unified leadership. “

Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I understand your consideration, the situation in the DPRK and China is now volatile, and there is a real need for a stable leader.

The minister is willing to do his utmost to assist His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in order to maintain the peace of the country. ”

Zhang Fuchu nodded and looked at Xie Zaixing gratefully, and said, "Xie Xiang, from now on, we will guard the court and overcome difficulties together."

You are the person I trust the most and the only assistant. ”

Xie Zaixing's face showed a look of determination, and he replied solemnly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I will definitely live up to your expectations, and I am willing to do my best for the country and the people." ”

"Still, my brothers, there are ...... My uncle, they're all people to deal with. Zhang Fuchu whispered: "After my father died, my Uncle Wang seemed to have an idea. ”

Zhang De is Zhang Cheng's younger brother and the person Zhang Cheng trusts the most.

Zhang Cheng once said that he wanted to share the world with Zhang De, and the position of prime minister was originally Zhang De's, but Zhang De made a mistake and was taken by Zhang Cheng.

That's why Xie Zaixing came out of the mountain.

But even so, the power in Zhang De's hands is not small.

In the past, Zhang Cheng was still there, and Zhang De naturally couldn't jump, but now that Zhang Cheng was assassinated and killed, Zhang De must have thoughts about the throne.

Maybe he will snatch his nephew's throne!

He knew that Zhang De was a hidden danger and had always been an unstable factor in the imperial court. Now, Zhang De has seen the opportunity and will inevitably be eyeing Zhang Fuchu's throne.

After careful consideration, Xie Zaixing decided to work with Zhang Fuchu to deal with this threat from within. He said in a deep voice: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, King De is indeed a problem, and we can't take it lightly.

I will control intelligence and government affairs, find evidence, and enlist the support of other important ministers.

At the same time, we also need to ensure our own safety and strengthen the patrol and protection of the guards. ”

Zhang Fuchu held Xie Zaixing's hand tightly, grateful.

He understood that now they had to work closely together to deal with this dangerous adversary and ensure their own safety and the stability of the throne.

Looking at the entire imperial court, only Xie Zaixing can be trusted.

"Thank you, thank you!" Zhang Fuchu said.

Xie Zaixing glanced at the others, and then whispered to Zhang Fuchu: "Your Highness, let's talk about it later, for now, let's settle Your Majesty's funeral." ”

Zhang Fuchu nodded, then took two steps back, and arched his hand: "The most trusted person by my father was Xie Xiang during his lifetime, and now that my father has passed away, I also ask Xie Xiang to organize a funeral for my father." ”

The reason why he said this was also to let others know what he was talking about with Xie Zaixing.

Xie Zaixing comprehended, and avoided it with red eyes, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has tormented Weichen, this is what Weichen should do." ”

Immediately, Xie Zaixing walked in front of Queen Liu, "Niangniang, Your Majesty has passed away now, but the country cannot be without a monarch for a day."

At this time, the world is in turmoil, and the great cause is strong, and it will attack us at any time.

At present, the death of His Majesty must be inseparable from the great cause. ”

Although Empress Liu is sad, she also knows that now is indeed a time when the country is in danger, "Xie Xiang, this palace is a woman's family, and she doesn't know the major affairs of the family and the country, so please ask Xie Xiang to preside over the overall situation!" ”

As she spoke, she glanced at the others, "If the others don't comply, they're against Miyamoto!" ”

Xie Zaixing secretly admired Empress Liu's cleverness, at this time, the ministers were there, even if Zhang De wanted to usurp power, he had to think twice.

Xie Zaixing strengthened his determination in his heart.

He knew that the current situation was urgent, and it was necessary to pacify the different forces in the court as soon as possible to ensure the stability of the country.

He bowed deeply to Empress Liu and said solemnly: "Rest assured, Weichen will do his best to maintain the security of the imperial power and the country."

As for His Majesty's funeral, Wechen will organize a solemn and solemn funeral to highlight His Majesty's merit and prestige. ”

Empress Liu nodded, with a solemn expression: "Xie Xiang, you are the most trusted person in Your Majesty's life, before Your Majesty's accident, they all said that with Xie Xiang, the Great Zhou is equivalent to 100,000 more horses."

Your Majesty trusts you, and so does the palace, and the palace believes in your ability and loyalty, and also believes that you can calm the internal turmoil in the court and defend the Great Zhou Dynasty. ”

Xie Zaixing was full of emotion in his heart, he understood that the burden at this moment fell on his shoulders.

He is determined to do his best, even if he sacrifices himself, to protect the country of the Great Zhou.

He betrayed the great cause desperately at the beginning, how can he watch the great cause trample the Great Zhou under his feet now?

He absolutely does not allow it!
