Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 823 Disagreement
Wei Zijin raised his eyes, met his deep gaze, and nodded slowly and solemnly: "I'm already, well prepared!"

How many times she dreamed back in the middle of the night, how many times she endured humiliation, waiting for the day of revenge... And she also knew a long time ago that they would meet Xiao Heng in battle one day!
It's just that this day may come sooner than she thought!

"I've already made all the arrangements..." Xiao Jingyao saw that she was determined to say this, patted her on the shoulder and smiled, "But the most important thing right now is that you give birth to our child safely. !"

Wei Zijin smiled but said nothing, lowered his head and stroked his lower abdomen, hiding the helplessness that flashed in his eyes.

She and Xiao Jingyao's first child may be destined to be born in a precarious situation!

Imperial Palace.

The autumn wind was blowing outside, and although thick windshield curtains had been hung in the Palace of Political Affairs, it was still filled with a cold atmosphere.

Under Xiao Heng's icy gaze, the few ministers summoned by Xiao Heng did not dare to speak nonsense, they only felt the cold rising slowly from the soles of their feet.

"Deng Xian, you speak first!" Xiao Heng frowned when he saw that the courtiers in front of him refused to speak, and ordered in a deep voice to his most trusted servant, Deng Xian.

Deng Xian quickly stood up, cupped his hands and said calmly: "Yes... Your Majesty, I believe that the kings are becoming more and more powerful in the local area, and their ambitions will gradually expand. All harm but no benefit, so the lower officials have the courage to ask the emperor to cut down the vassal, firstly, it can strengthen the control of the local area, and secondly, it can also prevent the kings from embracing their own troops in the local area!"

Xiao Heng nodded slightly, as if he also felt that Deng Xian's words were reasonable, and turned his attention to Fang Shixian, Zhongcheng Yushi: "Fang Aiqing, how about you?"

"Your Majesty, the thoughts of my servant and Deng Shizhong coincide..." Fang Shixian also stood up and said plausibly: "Since the death of Prince Zhaoming, the emperor has not yet determined the candidate for the crown prince, and the kings have been eyeing him for a long time. , in order to stabilize the court, the emperor should indeed weaken the power of the kings!"

When Xiao Heng heard Fang Shixian's words, he couldn't help remembering that in the early court, a minister proposed that he choose an adoptive son from among the princes' heirs as the candidate for the crown prince, which made him furious!
Although his current heirs are not enough to inherit the great line, where is he going to need to choose an adoptive from the Lanling Xiao family to his knees? !
Before he was confused, those people had already coveted his throne!

Thinking of this, Xiao Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Fang Aiqing's words are reasonable, and we can't delay any longer on cutting the feudal clan..."

At this moment, Prime Minister Han Yunzhi stood up and urged him eagerly: "Your Majesty, please think again. The death of the crown prince was caused by power disputes. Now that the people's hearts are not stable, if the Emperor rashly cuts the vassal, it will definitely cause chaos in the world... "

"The prime minister seems to be exaggerating!" Before Han Yunzhi finished speaking, Fang Shixian interrupted him: "Fan Yang Lu's punishment is exactly what the people want. Now that the people live and work in peace and contentment, the emperor's cutting of the feudal clan is only for the stability of the court, so what? Will it cause chaos in the world?"

Fang Shixian's words were alluding to Han Yunzhi's alarmist and exaggerated intentionally!
Sure enough, Xiao Heng also showed displeasure, and said lightly: "Han Aiqing, when you say that the people's hearts are not stable, are you accusing me, the emperor, of what you have done that is unpopular?"
