"But Sister Huang, why is this edict in your hands?" Jiang Lingfeng pinched her chin, really unable to understand this matter.
Jiang Yuelian lowered her eyes after hearing this and sighed: "This edict was supposed to appear after the prince was captured, but at that time, Rong Qin detained his father's men and Eunuch Liu who carried the edict. "
"At that time, the prince and Pei Qi were imprisoned one after another. Only then did Eunuch Liu realize that it was Rong Qin who really wanted to rebel, so he secretly suppressed the imperial edict and sent the royal guards to my house."
That day, she was dressing up in her room, preparing to attend the crown prince's enthronement ceremony after everything was over. Unexpectedly, the royal guard burst into her room covered in blood, tremblingly handed the imperial edict to her hand, and said to her. she says:
The imperial capital is in ruins, and the rebels are rebelling.
She fell to the ground in surprise, holding the bloody edict in her hand and not daring to speak out.
Later, she came to her senses and hid the imperial edict. Not long after, Rong Qin's people came and took away the body of the Jin Yiwei.
Pei Qi's hands were already sweating after listening to Jiang Yuelian's words.
I see.
According to Jiang Yuelian, this edict should have been taken out on the day Jiang Fengchuan rebelled, but because she fell into Rong Qin's hands, and Eunuch Liu was controlled by Rong Qin, there was no news for a long time.
Ah.
Rong Qin, you really worked hard to seize power.
"Hey, why is the eldest princess here at this palace banquet today?"
Even with his back on his back, Pei Qi knew who was coming.
I'm afraid even if the sky falls today, it won't change his look of needing a beating.
Pei Qi turned around and looked into the eyes of a man who was smiling but not smiling. He saw Duan Qianjun dragging a court uniform and walking from far to near.
Although the court dress made him wear it loosely, he still felt an indescribable awe without women around him. If he had been placed in this situation before, Pei Qi would never have used such words to describe him. his.
"Master Zuo Xiang." Due to the difference in official positions, Pei Qi did not want to make people suspicious, so he saluted him.
She thought that Duan Qianjun would be more or less restrained when the enemy was approaching, but at this moment he got angry and stood beside her with a condescending air. The words he said made Pei Qi want to give him to her. He punched: "Mr. Su, I haven't let you off the hook yet."
Pei Qi was too lazy to pay attention to him and stood up on his own. After saying goodbye to Jiang Yuelian, he followed Jiang Lingfeng into the main hall.
Duan Qianjun, who was stunned on the spot, did not expect that Pei Qi would not give him any face under the gaze of so many people.
"Su Yushi!"
Duan Qianjun wanted to struggle again and opened his mouth to call her to stop, but once Pei Qi decided to ignore him, he really ignored him and didn't even look back.
…
Due to Jiang Fengchuan's pressure, everyone present today quickly sat down.
At first, the main hall was full of singing and dancing. Jiang Fengchuan was sitting on the main seat, holding a golden bottle and cup in his hand, and his other hand was swaying back and forth to the music of the singing and dancing, looking like he was enjoying himself very much.
It's just that the bright yellow clothes on him are extremely ironic.
Although what he was wearing was not an actual dragon robe, it was still made in the shape of a dragon robe, and all his thoughts were spent on the appearance.
Looking at this posture, they have full control over today's outcome.
What makes Pei Qi puzzled is that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have almost arrived, but Rong Qin, the protagonist, has yet to be seen.
This reminded her of the day when the prince ascended the throne, and she had never seen Rong Qin, but he hit her in the head at the last moment.
A bad premonition filled Pei Qi's senses.
Before Pei Qi could figure out the reason, Jiang Fengchuan, who was in a high position, could no longer hold back. He stood up and looked down at the ministers, and said, "I see that everyone is almost here, so let's have a banquet." Let’s get started now. I wonder if you will enjoy watching the opening song and dance?”
As soon as Jiang Fengchuan finished speaking, a chorus of compliments came to mind in the hall.
"The banquet hosted by Lord Supervisor is naturally impeccable."
"I think it's very good."
"..."
Pei Qi raised his eyes and followed the flattering words one by one. There was no doubt on the faces of these people about the sudden banquet tonight. Maybe they probably knew what the banquet was for tonight.
In addition to the forces of Rong Qin and Jiang Fengchuan, the people who said these words were also several people who appeared at Lu Guogong's banquet. Finally, when they were in Ye Mansion, they were Wang Shizhang, the Minister of Household Affairs who had deliberately curried favor with Rong Qin.
Wang Shizhang was with her before, and she knew Wang Shizhang fairly well.
This person is not rich in the city, but he likes to use some shady tricks, otherwise he would not be in the position of Minister of Household Affairs today.
Although she saw what Wang Shizhang did, as long as she didn't go too far, she would just turn a blind eye and pass it by. After all, Wang Shizhang was in charge of the entire Dasheng's taxation. If it was because of She can't make any estrangement caused by a trivial matter.
But now that Wang Shizhang has become Rong Qin's lackey, she no longer needs to show mercy.
The country is picturesque and the heroes are vying for the throne. Do you really think that with Rong Qin as your blessing, you will be worry-free for a long distance?
When will the pearl of a grain of rice be worthy of shining?
"I think Lord Supervisor is throwing a grand banquet, and he won't just be here to say a few pleasantries."
Among the many compliments, a frivolous and inappropriate voice sounded from the lower left side of Jiang Fengchuan, lazy and casual.
Duan Qianjun rested his chin on his elbow, with a leisurely expression, as if he didn't take Jiang Fengchuan seriously, and the words he blurted out disturbed the thoughts of everyone present.
Pei Qi raised his eyes and looked between Duan Qianjun and Jiang Fengchuan, finally eliciting a smile.
It seems that Duan Qianjun has not forgotten what he wants to do.
"The supervisor is holding a banquet, and I don't even think about it asking you to come and eat and drink. It's really stupid for the left prime minister to ask such a question."
Just when everyone was still looking forward to seeing how Duan Qianjun touched Jian Guo's face, a cold and sarcastic voice suddenly came from the door of the hall. His voice was not loud, but it was impossible to ignore.
It's Rong Qin.
Finally appeared.
His targeting of Duan Qianjun can be said to be reflected in his words and deeds without any cover-up, making Jiang Fengchuan regain the face he had just lost.
The verbal battle in the court lost its momentum at the beginning. After that, no matter how powerful the trump card was, it was just being led around by the nose.
How could Pei Qi let Rong Qin gain the upper hand so easily?
Following Rong Qin's steps from far to near, she slowly stood up from her seat, her shrewd and honest eyebrows slightly raised at this moment, and she met Rong Qin's deep eyes.
She moved her lips, half-smiling: "I think that the meaning of Mr. Zuo Xiang's words is not to ask if there is anything to discuss at this banquet, but to know what the supervisor wants to discuss with everyone." It is so important that we have to trouble all civil and military officials to raise troops and mobilize the masses."
"If the Right Prime Minister can't even hear this, then I would think that this stupid man is not the Left Prime Minister..."
