In just one day, several shocking news came out of the imperial city of Dayue Kingdom one after another, stirring up this turbulent situation even more unpredictable.

First of all, Emperor Zhang Yunlan of Suzhen ordered to entrust Prime Minister Han Hui on the sickbed, and set up his brother Zhang Yuntao as the prince, and let Han Hui ensure that Zhang Yuntao succeeded him when he died.

Emperor Suzhen has a younger brother who is only sixteen years old, and many people have heard of this, but since Zhang Yunlan raised the army, he has never met his younger brother who grew up in Quanyue Mansion, which makes many ministers dare not believe that Zhang Yunlan will pass the throne to this younger brother who has never participated in court politics and has not even entered Chenghua Mansion.

Immediately after everyone's jaws dropped, the queen Yao Shubi, who had lived in the harem for a long time and rarely appeared, claimed that she and Zhang Yunlan had a son early, who was now eight years old and named Zhang Zitan.

She threatened that Han Hui led people to force the palace, forcing Zhang Yunlan to set up this little brother as the prince, so that she could control the government with one hand in the future, and Zhang Zitan was the orthodox royal family, and called on the loyal ministers of Yue Guo to fight against Han Hui.

This one of the royal brothers who suddenly appeared and the one who suddenly appeared made the ministers immediately divide into two factions.

One faction is on Han Hui's side, they believe that Han Hui has been trusted by Zhang Yunlan for many years, has done his best in everything, and has Zhang Yunlan's Tuogu Holy Purpose, so he should ensure that Zhang Yuntao ascends the throne and continues to govern.

The other faction chose to stand on Yao Shubi's side, most of these people were dissatisfied with Han Hui for a long time, they said that Zhang Zitan was Zhang Yunlan's son, and he should have been the prince, and Han Hui falsely passed on the holy decree, and everyone was punished.

In this way, the ministers gradually split into two factions, the latter party and the prime party, above the court, except for some neutral ones, the prime party accounted for seventy percent, and the latter party had more than thirty percent.

It should have been a one-sided factional struggle with a huge gap in strength, but the actions of the people in the party in the past few days have become more and more high-profile, preaching Zhang Zitan as the orthodoxy of Dayue everywhere, and Prime Minister Han Hui has not been majestic for a few days, just waiting for the death of the Emperor of Suzhen, as soon as his backer falls, the queen Yao Shubi will liquidate him.

The reason why the people in the post-party have such domineering capital is because of a "reliable news" circulating within the post-party.

Yao Shubi's father, Yao Tianlong, the lord of Shenglei Mansion, known as the "Panyun Holy Dragon", led an elite army north to Chenghua Mansion, only waiting for the queen's order to control the situation in the imperial city.

You must know that Shenglei Mansion is located in the Central Plains, and it has Panyun Fortress, which is known as the first Xiongguan in Dayue, and the lord of the mansion, Yao Tianlong, has an army of 400,000, and his strength is one of the best among the thirteen mansions in Dayue, and only Nanwu Mansion, Xuanwu Mansion and Xuanlian Mansion in the south can compete with one or two.

The various mansions of Dayue are already in their own way, and it is an open secret that the orders of the Chenghua Mansion are disobeyed, and Zhang Yunlan may be able to barely command one or two in Japan, if the emperor dies, the situation will be that all parties will watch the fire from the other side and preserve their strength.

At this time, if Yao Tianlong leads his troops to come, he definitely has the power to settle the situation in a battle, and the rest of the provinces are suspicious of each other, even if they want to stop Yao Tianlong, I am afraid that they will not be able to send troops to King Qin.

Regarding these rumors that were enough to wipe out the family and the clan in the past, Han Hui surprisingly did not react, but showed up less and less.

Among the Xiang Party, some of the original wall-riding faction and speculators saw Han Hui like this, and secretly switched to the Hou Party.

Within a few days, the number of the Hou Party had risen to 40 percent, and it was already on par with the Xiang Party.

This has become the factual basis for some good people in the post-party to preach that Han Hui has known that the end is approaching and has begun to show weakness.

The days were spent in the midst of the mutual conflict between the two parties, and the entire imperial city was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, so strong that only a small spark was needed to drop to detonate, turning the entire political situation of Chenghua Mansion and even Dayue Kingdom upside down!

On this morning, in the True Dragon Hall in the imperial city, the ministers held the Zhenlong Dynasty Meeting twice a month, which was intended for the emperor to review the work of the ministers, and it was also the time for the courtiers to make suggestions to the emperor in person.

But in the center of the main hall, there should have been a four-sided bow, but the figure of the real dragon was missing from the dragon chair that everyone worshipped.

Everyone knows the reason, Emperor Suzhen is seriously ill, and this kind of occasion cannot come.

Under the gaze of the majestic golden dragon inlaid with pure gold at the top of the main hall, more than 100 ministers dressed in court clothes representing their respective official ranks, stood in formation, and stood in an orderly manner.

It's just that under this solemn occasion, countless undercurrents are also quietly surging.

"I heard that Lord Li and the queen mother discussed the details of the matter, it seems that just wait for His Majesty to die, I can drive that Han Hui from power, and make the court look new!"

"Yes, this guy has dominated the government for so many years, and he has relied on His Majesty to let him go, which has made us suppressed, and his retribution has come this time!"

"You say, will he strike first and break the net with us?"

As far as I know, Dingshan Gong, who had always been neutral before, also secretly cooperated with Niangniang this time, and it is expected that even if he wants to turn the tables now, he is powerless. ”

Most of these dialogues come from ministers who have already defected to the post-party, and they are so unscrupulous that it seems that they think that Yao Shubi is bound to win this post-phase dispute.

As for the people in the party, they all had blue faces and gritted their teeth, but they were a little helpless.

Indeed, the recent change of the prime minister's strong style in the past and allowing the party to grow seems to reflect that he may really be about to lose power.

However, it is obvious that there are still many people in the court who are loyal to the prime minister, after all, Zhang Yunlan once said that the prime minister's life is equivalent to the emperor's order, which is even more important than life for these courtiers who have served the emperor of Suzhen all their lives.

Of course, if it weren't for the Prime Minister's assistance to His Majesty, Dayue would have been killed by that tyrant a long time ago!

"Obviously, I am incapable and can't be promoted to an official position, but I slander that it is the prime minister who suppresses dissidents, and I want to rely on the evil ways of the outer door to ascend to heaven, which is shameless!"

"It's all about Yao Tianlong's army coming, and there is no thing about the eight characters, these dogs are screaming so happily, they are really a group of servile and servile people, and they are bad for my Dayue's ministers!"

At first, the two groups of people still spoke in separate circles, but as similar sarcasm became louder, many people in the Hou Party and Xiang Party began to show each other their profound cultivation of spitting lotus flowers.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a trace of awe in their hearts for the important place of the True Dragon Palace, they might have to immediately stage an all-martial act.

At this time, in front of the empty dragon chair above the main hall, a person walked up slowly.

It is the eunuch Qi Gonggong, the personal chief of the Emperor of Suzhen, Zhang Yunlan has been ill for a long time during this time, and the True Dragon Dynasty will pass on some wills on behalf of the Duke of Qi, but it is generally a routine thing, and it goes through the motions.

But today's Father-in-law Qi is a little different from the past, in the past, when he appeared, he always held a dust whisk given by the Holy Emperor in his hand, which looked quite a bit of fairy wind and bones.

But his face was now gloomy, his brows were furrowed, and what was even more noticeable was that the dust in his hand had been replaced by a small black stick, on which was wrapped a white gauze with gold trim.

It was a golden wand of sorrow, and someone in the royal family died, and the personal eunuch could not see the body because of his eunuch status, so he held it to express his grief.

What is the identity of Gonggong Qi? He is holding a golden staff of sorrow, and it is self-evident who is dead.

There was no sound of quarrel in the hall at this time, and everyone stared at Gonggong Qi in front of the dragon chair.

Gonggong Qi looked around, and trembled with his crying voice that was a little like a wild duck: "Last night, Your Majesty died!"

Dead?

All the courtiers knelt down in unison, and for a moment mourning was all over the field, and some people kept crying and fainting, and some people couldn't stop knocking their heads to the ground, and their foreheads were red and didn't stop.

But what more people are thinking about is that the struggle between the prime minister and the queen is finally going to be put on the table.

This Dayue country is about to change the sky.

And as the core protagonist in this whirlpool, Prime Minister Han Hui is not in the True Dragon Hall at this time.

He sat alone in the study of the Xiangfu Mansion, and on the table in front of him was a simple bottle, which contained the special product of Quanyue Mansion, Su Cang Brew.

The prime minister looked at the piece of letter paper in his hand, which was secretly sent from the imperial city last night by the secret guards sent by Gonggong Qi.

There are four lines of characters written on the paper, and in terms of calligraphy, it is not a master's handwriting, but it has a unique sense of strength.

He knows this trace best, and this is written by Zhang Yunlan himself.

"The withered rivers and mountains are still sad,

When will the lamentations stop?

Dare to swallow up the eight wildernesses,

Hate will pay the spring water in vain. ”

The prime minister closed his eyes and crumpled the letter into a ball.

He howled silently.
