But even if Jiang Fengchuan is the most suitable candidate now, is he really the one everyone wants?
Jiang Fengchuan has lived a life of fighting for power and gain. When he became emperor, he thought about how to make his power more powerful, rather than the so-called righteousness that made him laughable.
How could he deserve to be so popular?
Pei Qi stood up, walked around the long table in front of him, took a step out, and said with good reason: "Although as Jian Guo said, the country cannot live without a king for a day, and the new emperor's accession to the throne is imminent, but Jian Guo said The regent of the state was only appointed in the face of danger, and he has only a limited understanding of Dasheng's government affairs. How could he proclaim himself emperor so hastily?"
"Besides, there are still many doubts about the prince's affairs now, and the death of the late emperor has not yet been explained. I believe that the matter of the new emperor should be discussed later."
"At least...after finding out the cause of the late emperor's death."
The prince is in prison, and because of the restrictions of Zhaolan Palace, Rong Qin does not dare to kill him. She can use this to delay Jiang Fengchuan's accession to the throne. As long as the Queen Mother returns to the imperial capital, as long as Duan Qianjun is there, the court will It's still a world of difference.
No matter what Jiang Fengchuan and Rong Qin do, they will ask the Queen Mother for instructions.
Although the Queen Mother is old, she is still the woman who once dominated the harem. She can become the unattainable moon in the harem, and her methods are definitely beyond the reach of others.
Everyone thought that the Queen Mother was just the head of the harem, but they didn't know that there were many courtiers behind her.
She doesn't have much leverage, but the Queen Mother is deadly.
"Could it be that Su Yushi's words mean that I am not qualified enough to be the king of this country because I am still young?" Jiang Fengchuan cast his sharp eyes on Pei Qi, stepped down from the throne, and was about to leave in the blink of an eye. Walked up to Pei Qi.
But halfway, he was stopped by Rong Qin.
Rong Qin raised his hand and stood in front of Jiang Fengchuan. He gave him a "be patient" look and then turned around to face Pei Qi.
Jiang Fengchuan is about to ascend the throne. With his character, he is bound to do something unexpected to Yushi Su in a fit of anger. Jiang Fengchuan's irritability will become a lever in Duan Qianjun's hands, so he must not Touch Su Yushi.
Rong Qin picked up a wine glass from the table and slowly walked towards Pei Qi: "What Master Su wants to know, isn't the truth already revealed?"
"The Imperial Master... no, it's Pei Qi, the guilty minister."
"Pei Qi was once highly valued by the late emperor, but he was not satisfied with his only power. He used his identity as the prince's tutor to secretly encourage the prince to poison the late emperor in order to seek higher power, the throne, or something else. , Why can’t Mr. Su understand it now? All of these things were planned by the guilty minister Pei Qi, which is the truth you want, Mr. Su.”
As soon as he spoke, Rong Qin walked up to Pei Qi and looked down at her condescendingly.
The scrutinizing gaze and strong sense of oppression made Pei Qi's breath hitch.
He put all the blame for the death of the late emperor on her, so why did Rong Qin do it?
Just because she drew that piece of guilt and couldn't defend herself?
Or do you think that since she ran away, she will not be able to return to the court to confront you, Rong Qin?
Pei Qi suddenly became angry. He raised his head and bumped into Rong Qin's eyes. He said word by word: "What kind of person is Mr. Pei? I think not only the right minister, but also the courtiers present have seen it. You just Based on a single statement, I concluded that Mr. Pei was the murderer of the late emperor, but no decent evidence was ever produced. Maybe the people of the world will think that the person who was detained is the real murderer, but what about the civil and military officials of the court?"
"That day, when the left prime minister did not return, you, the right prime minister, single-handedly convicted Mr. Pei. As for why Mr. Pei drew the pledge, I am thinking about it. You, the right minister, must know it well."
Pei Qi said the words "knowingly" almost with gritted teeth.
If Rong Qin had not threatened her with Xiaosi that day, she would not have compromised with Rong Qin even if she endured hundreds of tortures, and what happened today would not have happened.
Is there any room for Rong Qin to be arrogant here?
After Pei Qi finished speaking, gasps of air arose from everywhere.
Immediately afterwards, everyone started talking.
"Master Su, how dare you do this..."
"Pei Qi is Lord Rong's mortal enemy. Wouldn't Lord Su be making himself unhappy by doing this?"
"This is bad!"
"..."
The stubborn and unyielding look in front of him always gave Rong Qin a feeling of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember exactly where he had seen it before.
All he knew was that this look disgusted him from the bottom of his heart.
"It seems that Mr. Su has not been living in seclusion long enough to figure out who the master is." Rong Qin's eyes were cold and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes. He suddenly picked up Pei Qi from behind and pulled her with irresistible force. When he arrived in front of Jiang Fengchuan, he kicked her on the knee, causing Pei Qi to kneel down with a thump.
And the wound on Pei Qi's waist that was so careful and careful finally opened.
The heart-wrenching pain overshadowed the pain of his knees falling to the ground, and instantly hit his whole body.
Pei Qi also had some cold sweat on his forehead, but fortunately, she had done a lot of tricks on her face in order to disguise herself as Su Yushi, so it was difficult for Rong Qin to see her pale face.
"Perhaps in Mr. Su's heart, the importance of the guilty minister Pei Qi has not diminished, but as a minister of this dynasty, you should regard the monarch as the most important. Now that the prison country is in front of you, why are you still excusing the guilty minister?"
Rong Qin grabbed Pei Qi's hair and pulled hard, forcing Pei Qi to look up at him: "Master Su keeps saying that I have wronged Pei Qi, so I might as well let the Lord Supervisor discuss the matter with the ministers. Is Pei Qi's decision wrong?"
"Rong Qin, you are so presumptuous!" Jiang Lingfeng saw something was wrong with Pei Qi's face, so he quickly jumped up and landed next to Pei Qi.
He wanted to wave Rong Qin away and rescue her, but with his status, Rong Qin did not dare to do anything to him.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Pei Qi.
"Slow down..." Pei Qi squeezed out a word through his teeth, put his hands on the ground, and got the strength to break away from Rong Qin's hand. He stood up tremblingly from the ground in front of everyone.
The long-lost golden medal arrow in her arms fell out due to her actions, and the sound of it falling to the ground was enough to attract everyone's attention.
When the ministers saw this, their eyes widened. The next second, they all knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live my emperor!"
Pei Qi looked down at the token. Her broken hair blocked her eyes, making her expression unclear.
Immediately afterwards, a sneer suddenly came from between Pei Qi's lips and teeth, and her cold voice said: "Ha..."
"Is Lord Rong teaching your subordinates to see who is the master?"
"I don't think Lord Rong doesn't know what the golden medal arrow represents in the court. Seeing it is like seeing the late emperor. This is an insurmountable rule."
"Lord Rong, you might as well think about it carefully. Is your master the Lord Supervisor or the golden arrow in front of you?"
Pei Qi bent over and picked up the gold-medal token arrow on the ground. With Jiang Lingfeng's support, he held the token high in front of Rong Qin's eyes. With his other hand, he pointed at Jiang Fengchuan in front of him and spoke every word. , all ridiculed: "Although Xiaguan often works with the Imperial Master, he has never forgotten his duty. The master in Xiaguan's eyes has always been the emperor on the dragon throne, that is, the piece of cake in his hand. Gold medal command arrow."
"Instead of the cruel and murderous man in front of me... No, he is not a king, at most he is a cruel person."
