Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 634 Help (5)
If His Majesty really can't wake up, even they will think about setting up a new king.

However, His Majesty has not appointed a crown prince before, so it is hard to say who will be the new king.

In fact, the ministers all know that the person His Majesty likes is the Ninth Prince, and they want to make the Ninth Prince the crown prince.However, the Ninth Prince is too young after all, only seven years old, while the First Prince is already old enough to be able to take charge of himself.

Coupled with his natal family, the Liguo Duke's Mansion is operating behind, and gradually, more and more people support the eldest prince's rise to power.

However, everyone was concerned about the emperor's body, and his majesty might wake up at some point, so they didn't dare to put this matter on the surface, and it was calm on the surface.

Su Wan knew that this tranquility was only temporary, if His Majesty could not wake up in time, this illusion of tranquility would be broken immediately.

In the past few days, Zhang Wenhe, the chief assistant of the cabinet, also met with Su Wan. Mr. Zhang Ge has always been very optimistic about the Ninth Prince. His Majesty said more than once that Zhang Wenhe should be the tutor of the Ninth Prince, because Zhang Wenhe There is also a title of Prince and Taifu, Emperor Xiande's intention is self-evident.

When Zhang Wenhe saw Su Wan, he wanted Su Wan to be prepared. If His Majesty really had to die, he could only let the Ninth Prince ascend the throne.

Zhang Wenhe knew very well that the Eldest Prince was not suitable to be an emperor, and his being an emperor also violated His Majesty's original intention.

Su Wan didn't want to make such a worst plan at all, but she also knew very well that if she wanted to save the lives of the mother and child, she had to fight.Once the eldest prince ascends the throne, Concubine Hu will definitely not let their mother and son go.

Therefore, she only said that she could agree to appoint the Ninth Prince as the crown prince, but she believed that His Majesty would be able to wake up if the Ninth Prince was enthroned without any discussion.As long as His Majesty is alive, she will absolutely not allow anyone to ascend to his throne, not even her son, and she will guard his throne for him.

For this reason, she also specially summoned many ministers in the Hall of Qinzheng to win their support.

Needless to say, Dingyuanhou's Mansion and Lingbihou's Mansion are firmly on her side.There were also Uncle Yingyong Fu Li and Marquis Huo Yuan of Changwu. She met them in person and had a talk with them.

Fu Li agreed without any hesitation.

However, he also made it clear that everything he had was given by His Majesty, and he was only loyal to His Majesty, and everything was done according to His Majesty's will. If His Majesty intended to make the ninth prince the crown prince, he would naturally help the prince.

Su Wan was not surprised by Fu Li's choice.

However, she was not so confident about Huo Yuan.

She didn't know if Huo Yuan hated her or His Majesty in his heart.

After all, the hatred of taking a wife is irreconcilable. It is not about feelings, but about a man's face and dignity.

Su Wan actually didn't really want to see him. It would be a little awkward for the two of them to meet each other. However, she had to see him now.

In order to prevent His Majesty from waking up and misunderstood, or spreading bad rumors, she did not wave away the court ladies and eunuchs. Moreover, Yang Yong, the admiral of the East Factory, and the eunuch of the Royal Horse Supervisor, these trustworthy eunuchs, were also there. On the side, he didn't see Huo Yuan secretly.

Over the past few years, Huo Yuan hasn't changed too much, he just grew a beard slightly. At this time, he belongs to the most attractive age of a man, and he looks more mature and serious.

No wonder that Su Qingxue became more and more interested in him. She was jealous with several concubines in the mansion all day long, and didn't see Huo Yuan intervene. She only took action to suppress them when she saw them making too much trouble.

Huo Yuan can also subdue Su Qingxue. Su Qingxue, who has always been savage and aggressive, met Huo Yuan, just like a tamed house cat, obedient and honest, this is really beyond Su Wan's expectation.

Su Wan didn't specifically inquire about Huo Yuan's situation, but who gave her a well-informed elder sister, Chen Yaqin, every time she heard embarrassing things about Changwuhou's mansion, she would take it out for fun, so Su Wan was very concerned about Huo Yuan's situation. Huo Yuan's affairs are fairly familiar.

After saluting to Su Wan, Huo Yuan lowered his eyes respectfully and asked, "I don't know what the imperial concubine and empress called the minister?"

Su Wan didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I do have an important matter, and I want to ask Lord Hou for help. Of course, if Lord Hou refuses to agree, I... I won't force it."

Hearing Su Wan's words, Huo Yuan's eyelids moved, he raised his head slightly, and glanced at Su Wan who was sitting on the throne. However, he quickly lowered his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, it's okay to say! As long as I can do it , will definitely not refuse."

Su Wan was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, Huo Yuan answered too quickly, making people think that he was just talking casually, but Su Wan heard the seriousness and determination in his words.
