"Ye Lingtian!"

Su Qingcheng was walking over with Bu Qianchen and Guan Hu.

"Ah."

Ye Lingtian smiled and nodded to Su Qingcheng.

Bu Qianchen said in a deep voice: "Today's matter may be a bit tricky."

"It doesn't matter."

Ye Lingtian smiled dumbly, everything was under control.

He looked at Su Qingcheng and said: "Qingcheng, today is your home court, go in first."

"it is good."

Su Qingcheng smiled lightly. With Ye Lingtian here, she was not afraid at all no matter what happened today.

Then everyone walked inside.

......

Cining Palace.

Lanterns were decorated, food and wine were prepared, and all civil and military officials gathered together. In addition, many powerful people from the world also arrived.

The old Queen Mother sat at the top, with a smile on her face, and looked at the civil and military officials present with a playful expression, not knowing what she was thinking.

"..."

Emperor Su Yong was dressed in gold-threaded clothes and tasted the wine with a calm expression.

Next to her, there was a beautiful middle-aged woman in Taoist robes. Her face was cold and her eyes were deep, which seemed unfathomable. This was Su Yonghuang's uncle, a master of the Tomb of the Living Dead.

Marquis Jian'an sat aside silently, his expression a little solemn.

The atmosphere today was a bit strange. The five princes of Northern Liang arrived one after another, including Xin Wunian, Xu Kou, Wei Xinzhi, Nan Yanzhai and other masters.

Although everyone was smiling and communicating, there was obviously unspeakable hypocrisy and conspiracy behind the smiles.

When Ye Lingtian and others came in, everyone's eyes instantly fell on them, with expressions of curiosity, surprise, confusion... and different expressions.

"Meet the Queen Mother."

Su Qingcheng stepped forward and saluted the old queen.

"No need to be polite, just sit down."

The old Queen Mother smiled and waved to Su Qingcheng.

Su Qingcheng nodded lightly and found a seat to sit down, just opposite Su Yonghuang.

Ye Lingtian yawned and sat down casually. He poured a glass of wine and tasted it lazily.

Tang Ruoyu was the first to move his chopsticks and taste the delicious food.

The old queen mother's eyes fell on Guan Hu, she frowned slightly, but didn't say much.

The eyes of the others also fell on Guan Hu. This was the number one general in Beiliang, and no one dared to underestimate him.

It was previously rumored that he died in the battle at Xihanguan. Unexpectedly, he did not die at all, which is shocking. He has been hiding for many years, and now he supports Su Qingcheng after leaving seclusion. What on earth is he planning? When the time comes, people will know. Puzzled.

"..."

Nan Yanzhai and Liu Zhenqing were sitting together. Her eyes fell on Ye Lingtian, with a complex look deep in her eyes. She didn't know what she was thinking.

"what are you worried about?"

Liu Zhenqing asked with a smile.

Nan Yanzhai did not answer. He lowered his head and looked at the wine glass on the table, wondering what he was thinking.

"Master Imperial Master has arrived!"

At this moment, a voice came from outside the palace. Everyone present heard the words and stood up quickly. Of course, Ye Lingtian, Tang Ruoyu and the old queen did not stand up.

Bei Luoli wore a long azure dress and walked in with a calm expression. Next to her, there was a young woman.

"I've met the Imperial Master."

Everyone saluted quickly.

Bei Luoli nodded slightly to everyone, then found a place to sit down.

Everyone also sat down.

Bei Luoli looked at the old queen.

A hint of understanding appeared in the eyes of the old queen mother. She looked at everyone present and said: "Everyone, Beiliang has been in civil strife for many years and has wasted people and money, resulting in the weakening of the dynasty's national strength. Now it is time to end. Let's resolve this matter today on the birthday of the Ai family. "

Tu Shanhou was a burly middle-aged man. He looked at the old queen and asked respectfully: "I wonder what the old queen's plans are?"

The old queen mother smiled and said: "Today the emperor's daughter and a princess of the Northern Liang Dynasty are here. The future of Northern Liang has to be left in their hands. Why not choose one of them today?" Be the one in power!"

"..."

The pupils of some officials shrank, and they first chose a successor from the emperor's daughter and princess. Will the princes be willing to do so?

Some people looked calm, as if they had guessed this would happen.

Marquis Jian'an took a deep look at Emperor Su Yong, with a look of shock in his eyes.

Su Yonghuang had said before that the competition between her and Su Qingcheng would begin in three days. He originally thought it was just a joke, but he didn't expect that what the other party said was true.

Could it be that...she has already received the support of Tushanhou and Wenfenghou?

Thinking of this, Marquis Jian'an couldn't help but feel a little creepy. It seemed that he didn't understand his niece at all.

The old Queen Mother smiled calmly and continued: "What I said about this matter does not count. Why don't you let the Imperial Master speak about it?"

When everyone heard this, their expressions changed slightly.

Although the old queen mother is the person in power in Beiliang, in today's competition among the five princes, her voice is not as strong as imagined.

But Bei Luoli was different. Once she spoke, the situation in Beiliang would be settled, and no one would dare to interfere in the slightest.

Bei Luoli said calmly: "There has been civil strife in Beiliang for many years, and now the Western Zhou Dynasty is even more eyeing on Beiliang. For the future of Beiliang, this civil strife should really end. Emperor Su Yong and Su Qingcheng, as members of the royal family of Beiliang, The successor should be born from among them, do you think there is any problem?"

"Of course there is no problem."

The five princes and civil and military officials quickly replied, "You are joking, who dares to question it?" Unless you don’t want to live anymore.

Even Xin Wu Nian and other people in the world did not dare to say a word at this moment.

Bei Luoli nodded lightly and said: "Between Su Yonghuang and Su Qingcheng, whoever can get more than half of the supporters in the court and at the same time get the financial support of Beiliang can be the future successor of Beiliang." , then the decision is left to everyone present.”

The current situation is a competition between the five princes, a competition between civil and military officials, and a competition between Su Qingcheng and Su Yonghuang.

But after all, it was a bet between Ye Lingtian and Bei Luoli.

Many officials present did not dare to speak. They looked at the five princes. The key lies in how these five princes choose.

"I support the emperor's daughter. She is the queen's daughter, a direct descendant of Beiliang, and the emperor's daughter of Beiliang. The successor is naturally her."

Xinhou was the first to speak. There are some things. Once you make a choice, you should not look forward and backward. If you fail, you should get what you deserve. If you win, the benefits will naturally be more.

"As far as I know, Su Qingcheng seems to have been Luo Wang's killer before, and she was also the concubine of the third son of Tianmen. She has a complicated identity. How can she be Beiliang's successor? I support Emperor Su Yong."

Tu Shanhou said coldly.

Marquis Wenfeng smiled and said: "My thoughts are the same as those of Tushan Marquis, and I support Emperor Su Yong."

Seeing this, Marquis Jian'an quickly said: "Huang Su Yong is my niece. As an uncle, I should support her both emotionally and logically."

"..."

When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but look shocked. In the blink of an eye, three of the five princes of Beiliang supported Emperor Su Yong. Emperor Su Yong had already occupied the top.

If Su Qingcheng can only get the support of another marquis and the support of financial power, she can be on par with him.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Wu Zhaohou and Nan Yanzhai. The next decision of these two men was crucial.
