"My son is so pitiful! He has been honest for most of his life and finally got the recognition of the court. He was supposed to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country, but he was secretly plotted against. Not only did he not get justice and had no place to complain about his grievances, but he was also deprived of the qualification to inherit the throne. You are bullying too much! The murderer is clearly next door, why don't you catch him. It is obvious that all this was done by the King of Jin. The King of Jin is a murderer. He first killed His Royal Highness the King of Zhong, and now he is trying to kill my son. Why don't you catch him? King of Jin, if anything happens to my son, I want you to pay with your life!" Concubine Gao Shu went crazy in front of all the ministers. The maids supported him, crying and persuading him. Several sons of the King of Yan, big and small, lined up in a row, accusing the ministers in tears. The eldest brother questioned Li Liangcheng on behalf of the Prince of Yan's Mansion, "Prime Minister Li, I often heard my father say that you are the most fair person. My father was so miserable, why didn't you do justice for him? Why did you deprive him of the throne? Even if my father fell, the Prince of Yan's Mansion still has me. Please, Prime Minister Li, give my father justice!" "Please, Prime Minister Li, give my father justice!" Li Liangcheng was instantly put on the stove, and he felt very uncomfortable all over. "The throne cannot continue to be vacant, and the court cannot continue to be in such a mess. If it is delayed, I am afraid that the world will change again. Madam Shufei, it is not that the court wants to fight for the King of Yan, but because time is running out. The court cannot wait day after day until the King of Yan wakes up." "How do you know that my son will not wake up? Did the imperial physician say so? Maybe he will wake up in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. What do you want to do by depriving him of the throne? Are you going to rebel?"
"How about this, before this time tomorrow, the King of Yan wakes up, and everything will be the same. The throne will still belong to the King of Yan, and the preparations for the coronation ceremony will continue. If the King of Yan has not woken up after this time tomorrow, then it must be Re-vote to elect the heir to the throne. Please forgive me, Concubine Shu!" "I will never allow you to re-vote for the emperor. I will not agree. The throne belongs to the King of Yan. You chose him yourself. He is your emperor, your majesty. You cannot just abandon him. The coronation ceremony continues. My son must sit on the throne. If he can't, let this child inherit!" Concubine Gao Shu pushed her grandson out. "If the King of Yan has any problems, according to the ancestral system, he will be the next emperor." The eldest son of the King of Yan was confused. He was a half-grown boy, thirteen or fourteen years old, tall enough, half a head taller than Concubine Gao Shu. But he looked childish, and the courage to question Li Liangcheng before was gone. There was only confusion and panic that matched his age. But he knew to shut up and cooperate with Concubine Gao Shu to be a tool. The ministers frowned at the half-grown eldest son of the King of Yan. It is indeed appropriate for a child of this age to be the emperor, provided that his identity is legitimate. It is really inappropriate and he can do nothing. "Ridiculous! The Prince of Yan is still only a king. He is not the emperor until he ascends the throne. Since he is not the emperor, how can he appoint the heir to the throne?" "That makes sense!" "Rules are rules. The crown prince must be appointed by the emperor. The Prince of Yan has not yet inherited the throne, so his children are even less qualified to inherit." "If something happens to the Prince of Yan, according to the rules, other princes should inherit the throne." "This is the court, please step aside, Concubine Shu." "Concubine Shu, don't make a fuss. This is not the place for you." "Shut up, all of you! As the concubine of the previous emperor, the biological mother of the Prince of Yan, and the future empress dowager, don't I have the right to come out? Are you here now? Don't you have the right to stop you from making a ridiculous decision? Since the Prince of Yan has been chosen to inherit the throne, no matter if he is unconscious or dead, he is the emperor. This rule applies to whoever comes. The throne must also be inherited by the son of the Prince of Yan. Other princes are not qualified at all! " "Ridiculous!" "As a concubine in the harem, according to the ancestral system, the Concubine Shu cannot interfere in government affairs." "Seeing that the government is already out of control under your control, I, as the Empress Dowager, must intervene. Li Liangcheng, Yu Zhaoan, you two are prime ministers, do you accept it? Is there a precedent for the Empress Dowager to participate in politics in the country? Is there? " Concubine Gao Shu was firing on all cylinders. This is a battle for the throne, and also a battle for life. There is no room for guilt or timidity. There is no room for cowardice or retreat. Before coming, Concubine Gao Shu was ready to fight a tough battle and would not give up until she achieved her goal. She would do her best to keep her son's throne, and no one could take it away. Whoever dares to seize the throne is her mortal enemy and must be killed to prevent future troubles.
"Yes, there is!" Yu Zhaoan muttered in a low voice. "That's good! I am now intervening in the court affairs as the empress dowager. It concerns the safety of His Majesty, and I must not leave." Concubine Gao Shu raised her head, posed as the empress dowager, took the eunuch's hand, and slowly walked to the highest position. "But..." Yu Zhaoan smiled bitterly. "No buts!" Concubine Gao Shu glared, "Prince Jin assassinated His Majesty, and his crime is unforgivable. Prime Minister Yu, please pay attention to your identity and draw a clear line with Prince Jin as soon as possible." "Ridiculous! You are the empress dowager, who canonized you? Do you have an imperial edict, do you have the empress dowager's seal? The King of Yan is still just a king, and Concubine Shu can't wait to canonize herself as the empress dowager. Have you asked me and other court officials for permission? The late emperor is gone, but the court is still running. As long as I and other court officials don't recognize it, Concubine Shu will never be the empress dowager!" A bold minister stood up and scolded Concubine Gao Shu, who was addicted to acting, with sharp words, not giving her face at all. He wanted to tear off Concubine Gao Shu's elegant and luxurious face, throw it to the ground, and step on it. Concubine Gao Shu gnashed her teeth and hated it, "I want to see who dares to drive me away today. I am the mother of the King of Yan. The King of Yan was elected as the emperor, and I am naturally the Queen Mother. You dare not recognize it! Who do you think you are? You are just a dog of the royal family! Come on, drive this person out." "How dare you! I see who dares to do it. I am an official appointed by the court. Except for the emperor, no one has the right to drive me out. Whoever dares to touch me, I will put his whole family in jail!" "Crazy, crazy! Li Liangcheng, do you care?" Seeing that the situation was deadlocked and the officials were not afraid of death, Concubine Gao Shu decisively kicked the ball to Li Liangcheng. Li Liangcheng was overwhelmed. In the three hundred years of the imperial court, no prime minister had worked as hard as he did and encountered so many strange events. Life is hard! "Madam Shufei, I still mean what I said before. If the King of Yan wakes up before this time tomorrow, everything will remain the same. After this time, the court will choose another successor to the throne. This is a decision made by everyone. It is not to bully anyone, but to be responsible to the court and the world. The north and the south are fighting, and we can't delay any longer. Please forgive me, Madam Shufei." "If one's virtue is not worthy of the position, there will be disaster!" A court official whispered secretly without fear of death.
