Above the court hall, all civil and military officials are divided on both sides. Prime Minister Ye Zhiyuan is in front of the civil officials. On the side of the military officials, Xiao lie is not here. There is another general standing.
Because of the recent great changes in Beijing, the guards of the capital and the Imperial Palace have been replaced by the forbidden guards. No matter who goes to Ziyang palace to join his majesty, they are stopped outside the hall and are not allowed to enter.
At the same time, the rumour that your majesty sent someone to poison the queen slowly spread in the palace. For a time, the courtiers were worried and didn't know what to do.
"Your Majesty is serious... To the queen..."
A civil servant whispered to his colleagues behind him. His words were full of fear. What a serious thing for the emperor to murder the queen. Now that his majesty doesn't see anyone, people don't know what to do!
"It's said that General Xiao's wife found out that the queen died of poisoning. Later, the Grand Prince caught the poisoned man!"
"The man said it was your Majesty's intention?"
"It's said that not only the empress, but also the empress Chen was poisoned. It seems that her majesty arranged it!"
They only said a few words and didn't dare to say more. At this time, all the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty heard the voice and looked back.
Wearing an apricot yellow Python robe, Qi xuyao walked slowly into the xuanzheng hall. Everyone looked at each other and bowed and bowed.
"See your highness."
"No gift."
Qi xuyao's voice was indifferent but showed incomparable dignity. A pair of light eyes swept over the faces of the people one by one, and finally fell on the face of Prime Minister Ye Zhiyuan.
His position as Prince has been abolished. Before, he was soft / banned in the prince's house. Now he is not qualified to wear Python robes or go to court.
But he just came, and no courtier dared to say more!
Emperor Zichen had been seriously ill for some time. During these days, the prime minister and the general of the town took over the government temporarily. Originally, some ministers in the court were his confidants. Now when they saw him appear, they seemed to have a backbone, and their hanging hearts settled down.
Qi xuyao dealt with the affairs of the court one by one as before. His actions were orderly, and his clear voice soothed the uneasiness in the hearts of the courtiers.
"At the end of this morning, do the ministers have anything else to do?"
He raised his eyes and glanced around. The dignified and cold line of sight made people look at it and submit to it.
Not only because Qi xuyao handled political affairs skillfully and was not inferior to Zichen emperor, but also because he was calm and old-fashioned, which impressed the ministers every time.
It seems that no matter how troublesome things are, they can be easily solved in his hands.
"If there's nothing wrong, just retreat."
Just as Qi xuyao finished, ye Zhiyuan suddenly took a step outside and stepped out directly.
"I have something to start."
"Prime minister, please say."
Ye Zhiyuan looked at Qi xuyao with an uncertain look on his face and dark eyes. Finally, he calmed down slowly in Qi xuyao's unusually calm eyes.
"As you all know, your majesty has been ill for a long time, and his health is getting worse and worse. He is afraid that he will not be able to preside over the court again. His Highness the great prince is wise and powerful. He used to be in charge of the court, and everything was handled properly and trusted by all the courtiers. Therefore, the old minister begged his Highness the great prince to ascend the throne to bless our country's peace and security."
When the prime minister's words were suddenly heard, the ministers in the court were shocked beyond measure.
It's one thing for a great prince to go to court, but it's another thing to ascend the throne!
He was just abolished because of the palace rebellion. His majesty will let him ascend the throne?!
However, even if the courtiers think so, they are all good at judging the situation. It is definitely not uncertain to see the prime minister dare to say such words!
Ten thousand steps back, the prime minister is the father-in-law of the town general. There is no good fruit to offend him!
"I seconded, please ascend the throne as Emperor!"
The courtiers knelt on the ground, and the voices of secondment came one after another. How about Qi xuyao's ability? When he helped emperor Zichen deal with the government, they were also clear!
Now Wen has the support of Prime Minister Ye and Wu has the support of General Xiao. What else can be questioned!
In the xuanzheng hall, Qi xuyao's voice for accession to the throne became louder and louder. The ministers had already knelt down, shouted one by one, and stared at him with burning eyes.
Qi xuyao suddenly raised his hand to stop the voice, and his face suddenly became very ugly!
