The queen mother is charming

Chapter 172 Let King Wu'an Come Back
Everyone surrounded Shen Muchi, with the tendency to force the king.

Shen Muchi looked at the ministers who were kneeling in the dark in front of them.

He is the emperor, he has the absolute power of life and death, but if he kills one or two, he can't kill all of them, right?

After all, the law does not blame the public, and the ministers made up their minds that they must use one person's life to save the entire Nanming.

Either way, it's a good deal.

They drove Shen Muchi to a corner.

"Retreat."

At this time, Shen Muchi could only say helplessly.

"His Majesty?"

The ministers were stunned. At this time, could it be that His Majesty still can't make up his mind?

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is not His Majesty's biological mother, but she does not seek political power in her position. She has caused anger and resentment in the past two years. If the Empress Dowager is not handed over this time, I am afraid that the common people will not be angry..."

The minister is still trying to change Shen Muchi's mind.

But when Shen Muchi threw down the stack of memorials, he was already furious.

"I said, retreat! Are you deaf?"

As he spoke, he got up and was about to leave.

"His Majesty……"

"His Majesty……"

The ministers chased after him reluctantly.

Shen Muchi didn't listen to a word, turned around and left in panic, as if fleeing.

But Shen Muchi's evasion was not an option, the King of Qinghe County was coming in a menacing way, and he was about to hit Jinling all the way to the south.

Several armies confronted him, only to gradually realize that something was wrong.

It's Northern Qi, it's Northern Qi...

Messages came back from the front.

This time, not only the court, but even the people panicked.

For more than 100 years, there have been constant wars in the three parts of the world, but they can't threaten Jinling no matter what.

It is surprising enough that King Qinghe was able to go straight in, but now everyone knows that he is not only a conspiracy, but also a collaborator...

Things seem to be not as simple as imagined.

Even the harem has heard about the things outside.

The women gathered together but looked like they were gloating.

They didn't know that the disaster was coming, and they made an appointment together to enjoy flowers, flutter butterflies, drink tea and chat while taking advantage of the warmth of spring.

"Big brother Bengong has been presenting the memorial all this time and wants to hand over the one from Chaoyun Palace. I don't believe that His Majesty can still stand it."

When Zhao Jieyu said this, while shaking the round fan in her hand, there was a look of complacency in her brows and eyes.

"Yes, yes, the concubine brother also has a lot of advice."

Dong Meiren echoed from the side.

When they first entered the palace, these girls competed with each other and regarded each other as their opponents, but as time passed, they discovered that their opponents were never each other.

It was the old widow who should have called her curtain call long ago.

What's even more hateful is that the others and the others still have a way, but the old widow hid in the Chaoyun Palace and distracted most of His Majesty's thoughts without even leaving the door, leaving them no chance to make a move.

"But..." Someone said with some concern.

"I heard what His Majesty meant, and it seems that he doesn't want to hand over the Queen Mother."

"You are stupid, how can His Majesty do this without thinking? No matter how capable that vixen is, is it possible that His Majesty can still pay for the entire Nanming?"

"that is……"

"Heh." Deng Zhaoyi sneered: "I want to see what that vixen will do this time."

Of course, Chaoyun Palace had heard about these things, and Chunya was in a hurry, wandering around in the palace restlessly.

"What... what can I do?" There was worry in her eyes.

Mu Qingchao was still staring blankly at the chessboard in front of him with his chin on his hands.

"Queen Mother, did you listen to what this servant said?" Chunya asked anxiously.

"Listen."

You want to take her out and hand it over to Prince Qinghe...

Hehe, these Nanming men are always so despicable.

In fact, everyone knew that she was just a cover.

Nanming guarded the south of the Yangtze River, a rich land of fish and rice, and the Northern Qi and Xijin coveted it for a long time.

Moreover, Nan Ming had no generals, and the most soldiers in his hands were Jiang Bo and Zhen Guo Princess. Now that Zhen Guo Princess is not here, Jiang Bo is in Youyun, and there are only Gao Family and a few others who are not to be feared.

How can anyone not be tempted by such a good opportunity at your fingertips?

Today, the king of Qinghe County opened the gate for Northern Qi to enter, and tomorrow the king of Xilin County opened the gate for Xijin to enter.

But the ministers of these aristocratic families would not think of this.

They stay in this rich and warm land of Jinling, they have the inheritance accumulated for generations, they listen to the little songs of the girls by the Qinhuai River, and they raise skinny horses. They think that generations can live in such comfort forever.

They think they are elegant, so they look down on generals.

They don't know foreign aggression, only internal struggle.

Now the danger is coming, but they never thought it was their own problem, they thought that as long as Mu Qingchao was handed over, everything would be fine.

Letting women take the blame is the consistent style of men in Nanming. It was the same in the last life, and it is the same in this life, so they do it with ease.

**
At this time, another person entered the palace, into the Hall of Fulin.

"Weichen see Your Majesty."

Xu Jinglin knelt on the ground and saluted Shen Muchi who was in the high position.

Shen Muchi was leaning halfway on the red sandalwood carved wooden chair, his eyes were half downcast, it could be seen that there were bruises under his eyes, obviously he was worried and didn't look well rested.

"Do you know why I called you here?" He asked Xu Jinglin.

"It's for the Empress Dowager." Xu Jinglin answered directly.

Shen Muchi had a Buddhist bead wrapped around his wrist, and he played it carefully for a long time before asking, "Do you also think that I should hand over the Queen Mother?"

Shen Muchi knew that Xu Jinglin was sent to him by Mu Qingchao, but this person had already established his own foundation in the court.

After all, he has been trying to suppress the old aristocracy, Xu Jinglin is the upstart who he single-handedly supported, and it is quite easy to use, so he is used to discussing with him more on political affairs.

At this time, he listened to Xu Jinglin's words.

"I think that if the queen mother is handed over at this time, it will really ruin my Nanming majesty."

"Qinghe County King is just a lonely county king who has guarded the border for many years. No matter how good he was when he was young, he was only young after all. ?
Don't they all think that my Nanming court is weak and can be bullied?
It's fine if it's inside, but there is Xijin, everyone knows that our Jinling is a piece of fat, if it shows a little bit of weakness, who wouldn't want to come up with a dirty hand?
In any case, the King of Qinghe County is a traitor. No matter what reason he uses to whitewash peace, rebellion is rebellion.

For the rebels, the first reaction is not to suppress or arrest, but... to obey, which is really unreasonable. "

Xu Jinglin's words really touched Shen Muchi's heart.

He was unwilling to obey, one was because of Mu Qingchao, and the other was because of his integrity.

As an emperor, no matter what he is, he always has three parts of blood. If he surrenders to show weakness at this time, what face will he have to meet his ancestors?
Shen Muchi is not a fool.

Although this throne came unjustly, but during his two years in office, he suppressed the old ministers who formed cliques for private interests, supported the talented, lightly paid and paid less, and did practical things in a serious manner.

He is also considered diligent in politics, not obsessed with the harem, and spends most of his time on political affairs.

Therefore, he couldn't do such a thing as raising his hand and surrendering.

"In your opinion, what should be the solution to the current situation?" He asked Xu Jinglin.

"I think that King Wu'an should be brought back."
