Night Emperor Crazy Concubine

Chapter 63 The Impeachment of the Emperor 2
As one of the only two remaining old kings in the royal family, the sixth-ranked King Qing Feng Baiqing has always kept a low profile. Although his son Feng Yuche is talented, he is a talent with both civil and military skills. — That is, the current King Yu is very close.

Feng Yuche has been close to Feng Qingshu since he was a child, and he has to teach him martial arts. Although he is still young, but with his words, Qing Palace has no choice.

Sure enough, as soon as he said this, King Qing's face changed in an instant, and he looked at his son with obvious reproach and anger. Can't say anything.

A mistake in one word is very likely to bring endless disasters.

"What the son said, I deeply agree with it." Another echoed voice sounded, but it was a young courtier.

He respectfully bowed to the queen mother above the jade steps, and then bowed to the princes and princes of the royal family. The etiquette can be described as extremely thoughtful, giving people the feeling of being humble and polite, and abiding by their duties.

As for whether he really abides by his duty, probably only he himself knows.

When everyone was looking at him, the young courtier said righteously: "I don't have a high position, and I don't have much right to speak in front of the lords and seniors, but at this moment, there is a sentence in my heart. Don't spit out fast."

"Six years ago, I had the honor to win the first prize in the palace examination, and was fortunate to enter the court as an official. I am grateful for the emperor's grace. However, I have been in the court for six years. Until today, I have never had the honor to see the emperor once in the early court." Yan, the one who presided over the early court was either the Prime Minister of the Left or the Prime Minister of the Right, the Assistant Minister or the Assistant Prince, but the emperor was like a decoration, not only completely ignoring the government affairs, but never even showing up—this kind of court has been rare since ancient times , I really don’t know how to express it well.”

Don't know how to express it?

Isn't it a good expression?He spoke clearly and logically, and people couldn't help but nod frequently, and almost had to agree with him.

Because every word is true.

This person is called Ji Xia, and he has indeed entered the court six years ago. He has a rigorous style and has now been promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of War. Apart from his own prince, he is serving in the Ministry of War, which undoubtedly gives him a little more confidence when he speaks.

"Although Ji Qing's official rank is not high, the Ai family admires this courage that is greater than ordinary people." The queen mother showed a smile of appreciation, and praised sincerely, "If the country wants to be strong and the society wants to be stable, what is needed is An outspoken and fearless minister like Ji Qing puts his own life and death aside, and only cares about the people of the country, and the Ai family is sincerely happy for Ji Qing."

Ji Xia said respectfully: "I just said what I think should be said, and I can't be admired by the Queen Mother."

The Empress Dowager smiled and nodded, and stopped talking to him. Her gaze circled among the officials, and finally locked on Prime Minister Zuo Yun Tingyu's face, and said indifferently: "Is there nothing to say, Prime Minister Zuo?"

The ministers fell silent for a moment.

The blood of the Feng family is not very prosperous, but it has not yet begun to wither. At this time, the direct blood of the royal family staying in the hall is not only the two serious old princes, but also Feng Qi's brothers, cousins, and so many identities. The empress dowager did not ask anyone, but directly asked Prime Minister Zuo, one of the left and right ministers.

The officials naturally understood in their hearts, because Prime Minister Zuo Yun Tingyu and Prime Minister Right Gong Zan were the ones who could really play a key role.

Whether the empress dowager's impeachment of the emperor can achieve the desired effect today depends on the attitudes of these two people.

There was a dense group of people in the hall, whether they were ordinary courtiers or members of the royal family, all eyes were fixed on Prime Minister Zuo. There were expectations, nervousness, playfulness, calmness in these eyes, and some, It is the indifference of nothing to do with oneself.

As for why a courtier is indifferent to such a life-threatening matter as the impeachment of the emperor, it is really confusing. Of course, no one will pay attention to this.

Zuo Xiangyun Tingyu didn't seem to be surprised by the question suddenly thrown by the Queen Mother. Hearing the words, he just smiled lightly, his smile was as gentle as jade, and the words he said were as gentle as he made people feel, making people feel like a spring breeze.

He said: "The empress dowager is a weak woman who cares about the country, and she is not afraid of the possible consequences of this move. It is a blessing for the court and a blessing for the people. I am also deeply moved. However, I just got the exact news , the emperor is already on his way back to the palace, maybe he has already entered the city gate at this time, the queen mother really wants to impeach the emperor, I wonder if we can wait until the emperor returns to the palace?"

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar in the hall, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to hide the nervousness and fear on their faces.

The emperor is coming back?

Didn't you say you went to travel around the world again?Why... you came back right after you said it?

Feng Qingshu, who was standing silently in the queue, squinted her eyes, and her gaze towards Prime Minister Zuo was somewhat dim.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a leftist, and his speaking level is different from that of ordinary people.

On the surface, he is gentle and moist as jade, but he can disturb the morale of the army with a single sentence.

The Empress Dowager wanted to impeach the emperor, so it was natural to choose a time when the emperor was away, and wait until the emperor returned to the palace... What a joke.

However, the emperor is indeed coming back, but unfortunately, whether he can enter the imperial city, whether he can enter the palace gate, is not up to him.

The Empress Dowager stared directly at Prime Minister Zuo's smiling face with a coercive gaze, her eyes were as icy as a sword.

A thought came to the minds of the ministers in unison.

If the emperor knew that his empress dowager's mother, his uncles and elders, his royal brothers, and his courtiers were gathering in the court hall to impeach him, would he be furious and then kill him?
The Queen Mother's actions and words fell into the eyes of the emperor, is it considered rebellious?

"The purpose of the emperor's return this time is to formally take over the power and manage the government. After the emperor returns to the palace, the ministers will formally hand over the power of the court. Therefore, from today onwards, the empress dowager need not worry about this issue."

Zuo Xiang's gentle and elegant voice rang out at a leisurely pace, like a gust of spring wind blowing past everyone's ears, miraculously blowing away the uneasiness in the hearts of the officials.

The reason why the emperor came back this time is to formally take power?

So does this mean that the queen mother will no longer have a reason to impeach the emperor?
All the ministers breathed a sigh of relief—although they knew well that the real purpose of the Empress Dowager was not simply to impeach the emperor, but to use the excuse of impeachment to arouse the rebellious emotions of the ministers, and then abolish the emperor and establish a new one. .

But as long as there is no sufficient excuse, the queen mother's unrealistic thoughts should be dispelled, right?
Otherwise, it is really going to be a rebellion.
