Twilight leaves song waiting for you to return

Chapter 657

Dugu Liang's face turned red and pale, and just about to explode, he heard Shi Qian who was next to him say coldly: "The former emperor has passed away, so can he be disrespectful to the empress?"

The prime minister opened his mouth, but the meaning was obvious, and the minds of all the ministers who waited and watched changed again.

"The matter of the will is of great importance, and adults, please be calm and don't be impatient, and listen to the empress to finish speaking!" Shi Qian looked at Dugu Liang and said again.

Dugu Liang stared at him, his face changed again with anger, but he didn't continue to speak rudely.

Empress Zhao nodded slightly at Shi Qian, and continued: "The edict is indeed in my palace!"

As soon as these words came out, the already quiet people below were all astonished and looked at Queen Zhao with different expressions.

"Empress! Please forgive the old minister's blunt words! The late emperor never made any wills before he was alive, and I and other veterans have never heard of them. Now that he passed away suddenly, how could the wills appear in the empress's place?"

The person who spoke was Taifu Wen.

His words struck a chord with quite a few others, and several others expressed the same opinion.

Queen Zhao looked at them quietly without speaking, but her face slowly froze.

Everyone gradually became aware of her displeasure, their voices gradually decreased, and finally became silent again.

"It's all over?" Empress Zhao smiled, and asked, "Do you think that the late emperor handing over the edict to this palace is not in line with your wishes?"

No one dared to refute her words.

Anyone who opposes it expresses opposition to the authority of the entire Qi State, so no matter how much they have opinions, everyone has to hold back and say nothing.

Relying on the fact that he is the elder of the three dynasties and the grandfather of Wen Yuhan, he is already a generation higher than Queen Zhao in terms of seniority, so he doesn't have so much respect, but snorts coldly: "Could it be that the queen doesn't allow it?" Those of us veterans, express our opinions?"

Empress Zhao squinted at him and said, "May I ask if the Grand Tutor can accompany the late Emperor at any time?"

Taifu Wen said without thinking, "How is this possible?"

Empress Zhao laughed again: "That's it! Since Taifu Wen can't accompany the late emperor at any time, the late emperor has some secrets, so why don't he come to visit and tell you in person?"

Mrs. Wen opened her mouth and frowned: "What the queen said is really ridiculous! This old man can't afford this favor!"

Empress Zhao suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at him: "Then why did you have to know the late emperor's edict?"

Taifu Wen was speechless, but he was very reluctant to say: "Then even if I don't tell the old man, I have to let the Ministry of Public Affairs draft and record it! Then why doesn't Master Zhongshu Ling know?"

At this time, Zhongshu ordered Fang Yaohua to stand up and said to Empress Zhao: "It is true that the edict of the first emperor mentioned by the empress has not been recorded by the Zhongshu Ministry!"

He had already been blackmailed by Dugu Mu two years ago, and it was after Vantage began to doubt Dugu Mu's identity that he started to use him again, but he chose to remain neutral, not standing on anyone's team, and trying to protect himself until he was old. Township.

He didn't want to speak out about the situation just now, and he also knew that it was meaningless to say anything about it. It seemed that Empress Zhao had already obtained the will with certainty.

"Then the palace will be brought out to the Ministry of Education for the record now!" Empress Zhao smiled, and said to Li Dequan who was behind her, "Eunuch Li, take out the edict!"

"Yes! Empress!"

Seeing Li Dequan respectful to Empress Zhao, the expressions of the people below were even more shocking!
