Chapter XVII

Knowing that everyone was tired, Feng was not afraid to arrange for everyone to wash and rest early, and he also entered the palace to report Feng Chenggao's return.

It wasn't until the evening that he came back and told everyone that both the uncle and the emperor thought that Mu Feng's plan was very good, and five days later was the day of the court meeting, when all the officials gathered, it was the best time to announce the succession.

In the past few days, Feng Chenggao should not expose his whereabouts, so he temporarily lived in Feng Bu's Hou Mansion.

Since the last time he cooperated with Mu Feng's formation and killed three Jiang Shen Clan disciples in a row, Feng Buwei knew that his formation was good, and asked him to accompany Feng Chenggao to the palace together, in case there was a change, his formation could help Feng Chen protect the emperor and Feng Chenggao.

In this regard, Mu Feng did not refuse, and happily agreed.

There were still five days left before the court meeting, and he had to make some preparations during this time.

The two high-level formations left by Jiang Shizhao had been completely abolished by the last time he met the white wolf Xue'er, and now he has to rely on himself.

Fortunately, during this time, the divine soul has strengthened a lot, and although it can't depict the high-level formation, the level of the intermediate formation has improved a lot. And he also has some experience in the formation of rockets.

Feng Buwei also sent him a volume of advanced exercises called Soul Refining Technique again, and after cultivation, it was indeed more powerful than Condensing Soul in enhancing the divine soul.

In the past few days, in addition to eating, he carved the formation and practiced the exercises, and made every effort to prepare for the court meeting in five days, and even Niuniu asked Feng Ayayan to take care of it.

Soon, five days passed.

Early in the morning, Feng Bu was afraid to take Mu Feng and Feng Chenggao, who were dressed as guards, to the imperial city. Feng Ayayan, Feng Xue'er and Niuniu all stayed in the Hou Mansion to wait for news.

The imperial city is very large, and the three of them walked all the way in, as the guardians of the imperial city, Dade Houfeng was not afraid of not having to accept the inspection of entering the city, and took the two of them directly into the imperial city.

After entering the imperial city, I walked for half an hour before arriving at the gate of the palace.

Here, there was a general of the Yulin Army guarding it, and when he saw that Feng was not afraid to bring people in, he still asked a few words, and after being told that it was a new guard for His Majesty the Emperor, he entered smoothly.

After entering the gate of the palace, there is a grand palace in front, Feng is not afraid to tell Mu Feng, this is the main hall of the palace, only the day of the court meeting will be opened, other times, the emperor is in the side hall after the main hall office.

The three of them entered the main hall and saw that there were already many civil and military officials standing on both sides of the hall, Feng Buxing led the two of them to bypass everyone from one side, and went straight to the middle of the main hall, standing next to the steps under the emperor's throne.

After standing by the steps for about half an hour, seeing that no one from the officials below had entered the main hall, they should have all arrived.

At this time, a sharp voice suddenly sounded: "Your Majesty has arrived." ”

Hearing this roar, the hundreds of officials standing below knelt down one after another. Mu Feng was also behind Feng Buwei and knelt down on one knee.

Unlike hundreds of officials kneeling on their knees and lying on the ground, Feng Bu is not afraid to kneel on one knee, his head is high, and a pair of eyes keep scanning the hall.

Mu Feng said in his heart: It seems that it is his duty to prevent someone from assassinating the emperor.

As everyone knelt down, a middle-aged man in an imperial robe, supported by two eunuchs, slowly walked out from the back of the main hall. Mu Feng knew that this was Emperor Dasui Feng Xiangqi.

Looking at Feng Xiangqi's face, thin and pale, he knew that the illness was not light, and the court was barely supporting.

As soon as he entered the main hall, Feng Xiangqi looked at Feng Buxing, obviously looking at Feng Chenggao behind Feng Buxing. After seeing Feng Chenggao in a guard costume, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Immediately following Feng Xiang Qi was an old man with white hair, crane hair and childish face, and it could be seen that he was already a god cultivator, and he should be the Great Elder of Tianlongmen Feng Chen.

After that, it was a palace lady, very beautiful, a beginner cultivator, holding a six or seven-year-old child, it must be Jiang Guifei and the second prince Feng Chengqian.

Feng Xiangqi walked to the throne, waved his hand and said, "Zhongqing is flat." ”

Obviously, his voice was too small for the officials who were far away from the steps to hear him.

At this time, a eunuch repeated in a shrill voice: "Your Majesty has a will, and all the ministers are flat." ”

Then the officials got up and divided into two sides.

The official got up, and the eunuch helped Feng Xiang Qi to sit on the throne slowly, and someone stuffed a cushion behind him to make him sit more comfortably.

Another eunuch has already moved up two chairs, Feng Chen sat at the top of the throne, and Jiang Guifei hugged the second prince and sat at the bottom.

At the beginning of the court meeting, all the officials played one after another, which was nothing more than something that usually needed to be coordinated by various departments, but could not be handled, or the matter was too big and needed to be decided by the emperor himself.

After more than an hour of hustle and bustle, the matter was finally dealt with. During this period, His Majesty the Emperor Feng Xiang Qi mostly listened quietly, and then the eunuch announced his decision on his behalf.

After the political affairs are handled, according to the rules, it is time to retreat. Feng Xiangqi waved his hand, and the eunuch was ordered to help him up.

With the support of the eunuch, Feng Xiangqi walked to the front of the throne steps.

All the officials looked up at Feng Xiangqi together, in the past, he just waved his hand to signal the retreat, and after the hundred officials left, he would directly return to the palace in a sedan chair. Today, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly walked to the front of the steps, as if he had some important decision to announce.

"Zhongqing!" After not speaking loudly for many days, Feng Xiangqi's voice finally resounded in the hall again.

"I am sick and difficult to treat, I know that time is running out, the country cannot be without a king for a day, in order to prevent the turmoil of the dynasty after I go, I will tell the world today, I will be the eldest son of the emperor Feng Chenggao, and the ministers will congratulate!"

After listening to him, everyone in the hall, except for a few people who had already known about Feng Chen, Feng Bu Fear, the others didn't react to what happened for a while, and for a while, the entire hall was silent, and everyone's wheezing sound was clearly audible.

Even Concubine Jiang Guifei, who was holding the second prince Feng Chengqian, looked at Feng Xiangqi in a daze, not understanding what he meant.

This was too sudden, there was no prince, and before he even saw the face of the eldest prince, His Majesty the Emperor actually announced his abdication and directly let the eldest prince inherit the throne, what does this mean? Could it be that the emperor is confused!

At this time, Feng Xiangqi smiled and beckoned to Feng Chenggao.

Feng Chenggao understood, took two steps forward, bowed down at the feet of Feng Xiangqi, kowtowed and said, "Emperor Feng Chenggao, meet my father." ”

This line was designed in advance, for fear that something would go wrong at that time, Feng Buxing deliberately let him practice seriously in the Hou Mansion.

Feng Xiangqi knelt down after accepting Feng Chenggao, stretched out his hand to pick him up, and then waved his hand, and a eunuch had already stepped forward with the crown of the emperor's dress in his hand, just above the main hall, and put it on for Feng Chenggao.

It was not until this time that Jiang Guifei and the ministers finally understood that Feng Chenggao, the eldest prince who had been intercepted and killed by the Jiang Shen clan, secretly sneaked back to the imperial city and came to the main hall.

"Your Majesty, who is this person, how can you prove that he is His Royal Highness the Great Prince?"

Obviously, Jiang Guifei was really anxious, and even directly questioned Feng Chenggao's identity.

"Ai Concubine, Cheng Gao is the fearless imperial brother to pick it up in person, is there anything to question his identity!"

"Your Majesty, after all, the eldest prince has not returned to the country for ten years, so it is better to be cautious. ”

"You see, the emperor's life is the same as when he was young, if this can't be proved, then it can't be proved anymore. ”

Indeed, Feng Chenggao looks very similar to Feng Xiangqi when he was young, and some old ministers can see at a glance that Jiang Guifei's questioning is obviously unconvincing.

There was nothing to say after being refuted, and Jiang Guifei hurriedly glanced down.

Among the officials who were originally hesitant, seeing Jiang Guifei's eyes, someone finally stood up.

"Your Majesty, please postpone the matter of succession. ”

It was Prime Minister Li Ji who spoke.

Feng Xiangqi glanced at Li Ji, he couldn't think of what caused his first assistant minister to take refuge in the Jiang Shen clan.

As the prime minister spoke, more than a dozen ministers came out and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please postpone the succession. ”

"Your Majesty, please postpone the succession.

......

Looking at more than a dozen ministers in high positions, Feng Xiangqi couldn't help but sigh, if it weren't for today's incident, he wouldn't have discovered that the Jiang Shen clan had infiltrated the courtiers and already had such connections.

He didn't pay attention to everyone immediately, but after Feng Chenggao finished changing his clothes, he took his hand, and the father and son returned to the throne together.

Feng Buxing and Mu Feng also followed, standing on both sides of the throne.

The wide throne, even if the father and son sit down, are still very spacious, and Feng Xiang Qi changed his decadent state in the past and sat up straight in the throne. Feng Chenggao sensibly grabbed one of his arms and helped him support his body.

"Li Qing, come forward and tell your reason. ”

Feng Xiangqi looked directly at Prime Minister Li Ji and asked.
