A corpse was thrown out from the courtyard wall of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. The Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Forest Army stepped forward holding a torch, lighting up a small world.

When he saw that the dead man thrown out was the queen's second uncle, he was stunned for a moment.

Living people just disappeared and died so casually.

Deputy Commander Shangguan ordered his men to surround the general's mansion and not to act rashly. He wanted to go into the palace and report to the emperor.

Behind each of the hostages held in the General's Mansion is a big family, which is very involved and cannot be careless.

The white fish belly exposed in the east did not dispel the chill that permeated the silence.

After hearing the report from Deputy Commander Shangguan, the emperor learned that the queen's second uncle had been killed by the rebels. He was so angry that he felt like throwing a rat into a trap.

All the officials in the main hall have not left the palace since they entered the palace yesterday morning. They were just woken up and gathered in the main hall. Many officials learned that their family members were actually held under house arrest by General Zhenguo and used as hostages in the palace. , was so angry that he cursed General Zhenguo as not a human being.

It's a beast!

After they finished scolding, they came to their senses, General Zhen Guo was going to rebel.

Lu Yushi came out angrily and said, "Your Majesty, we must not let go of the general who governs the country."

"Correct."

"Correct."

……

All the officials agreed and were filled with indignation.

The queen's fat face showed a look of extreme pain, her body was shaky, unable to hold up, and she knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my concubine's uncle..."

The queen sobbed softly.

General Zhenguo could not kill anyone, but the second uncle who was the first to kill her. Although she was not very close to her second uncle, her face could not be stepped on and rubbed by General Zhenguo in front of the entire court. .

The officials stopped talking. While they sympathized with the queen, they were also worried about the safety of their families. They were worried that the next person the Zhenguo general wanted to kill would be their own family members.

They were all waiting for the emperor to say what to do with the general.

The hall fell silent for a while.

Deputy Commander Shangguan said loudly again: "Your Majesty, the general who governs the country should not be in the general's mansion. The person who comes out to take charge is a woman."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned around to look for Mr. Tang. After searching for a while, they couldn't find him. Then they realized that yesterday was the day for him to marry his daughter, and Mr. Tang had already asked for leave.

Everyone turned their attention to Feng Guifei again. They heard that there was an aunt Feng in the house of General Zhenguo. This aunt Feng was the daughter of the Feng family.

The emperor looked at Feng Guibin with an incomprehensible expression, and a rare sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Feng Guibin received everyone's inquiring glances, turned her eyes, and brought the topic back. She was here to report the queen. As soon as Deputy Commander Shangguan entered the palace, the topic was diverted.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother was poisoned to death by the Queen!" Feng Guibin sneered at the Queen. She had evidence, but her purpose was more than that.

The queen should just wait to be deposed. She will be deposed before the general Zhenguo invades the palace and experience a double blow.

The queen turned pale and argued: "Your Majesty, I did not harm the Queen Mother. Feng Guifei was always by the Queen Mother's side. She was the one who killed the Queen Mother. She slandered me. Your Majesty must make the decision for me."

Feng Guibi's eyes widened, and when she was about to speak, she heard rapid footsteps behind her, and everyone's eyes were immediately attracted.

"Expedited at 180 miles! Expedited at 800 miles!"

A hoarse voice came from behind, accompanied by the sound of kneeling.

Feng Guibi shut up and listened carefully.

"Your Majesty, Prince Rongjun has been killed, and all 500 troops of the Shenji Battalion have been killed. The main road to the northwest has been cut off, and the bandits are heading towards the capital."

"Report..."

There was another burst of panicked footsteps, accompanied by the sound of breaking wind.

Everyone had not yet reacted to the urgent message from Eight Hundred Miles, so they did not think much and turned their attention to the guards who came in from behind.

"Your Majesty, enemy troops have been spotted at the northern city gate and are attacking the city gate."

As soon as the words fell, all the officials took a breath of air.

How come the bandits attacked so quickly?

The emperor frowned slightly and looked at the two messengers kneeling in the main hall. The look in his eyes was unclear. He raised his hand, but he didn't wave it. He looked hesitant, entangled, or even frightened. look.

All the officials looked at the emperor worriedly. It was too late. Prince Rongjun was killed in battle. The bandits could not be wiped out. The bandits had already attacked the capital. So, what about the northwest?

The main route to the northwest was blocked, and the northwest army led by Duke Wei fell into an isolated and helpless situation. Without food and grass supplies, it was bound to lose the war with the Yi people.

"Your Majesty, I would like to guard the north gate." Marquis Chongshan came out.

"Wei Chen is also willing." Lu Yushi agreed.

"Protect the Emperor." Someone said something.

"Yes, protect the emperor's safety." Zhenxihou echoed loudly.

"Yes, yes, protect the emperor. The emperor's safety is the most important thing." The officials responded in unison.

Feng Guibi's eyes lit up, her brows furrowed, and she blurted out, "Your Majesty, there is a tunnel in the palace. Why don't you go hide in the tunnel? If the enemy attacks the palace, the emperor can escape in time and not fall into the enemy's hands."

The queen's almond-shaped eyes widened, and her angry eyes turned cold. She shouted: "Feng Guibin, how do you know that the emperor has a secret? You are the one who killed the queen mother. The enemy has not yet entered the city, and you are here. What do you want to do by disturbing the morale of the army?"

Feng Guibi was stunned for a moment, but she immediately realized what she was doing and cried bitterly on the ground: "Your Majesty, this concubine is thinking about the safety of the Emperor. The Queen does not care about the safety of the Emperor. The Queen's intentions are sinister. Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is obviously the Queen who poisoned her." dead."

The queen and Feng Guibin each held their own opinions.

Both of them seemed to be right.

Lu Yushi's face darkened and he shouted: "Feng Guifei, you are disturbing the morale of the army. Women are not allowed to participate in politics. The crime will be increased and you will be beheaded in public."

"Your Majesty, I am not concubine. The Queen Mother told me about the tunnels in the palace. I am thinking about the safety of the Emperor. The Queen Mother was thinking about the Emperor until her death. Your Majesty, I did not want to disturb the morale of the army. Your Majesty, I am concubine. Unjustly accused." Feng Guibi cried.

With tears streaming down his face, he looked at the queen fiercely.

Mr. Yang Ge had been secretly observing the emperor's expression. It was obvious that the emperor intended to protect the queen. Feng Guifei said that the queen had killed the queen mother, so she remained indifferent and did not send anyone to investigate thoroughly.

Feeling that the time had come, Mr. Yang Ge came out, knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to establish a crown prince to stabilize the country and stabilize the people's hearts."

The emperor turned his head and slowly looked at Mr. Yang Ge.

All the officials came out to support the establishment of the prince.

Feng Guibin's heart lifted again.

Isn't the situation chaotic enough? What kind of prince should be established at this time? Isn't it important to run away quickly?

What a bunch of idiots!

After staring at Mr. Yang Ge for a few seconds, the emperor turned his head and looked at the civil and military officials throughout the dynasty. He closed his eyes and opened them again, with a bit of clarity and perseverance in his eyes.

"Okay, as everyone wishes, I will make the eldest prince the prince and record the prince in the name of the queen."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions on everyone's faces were different.

Yang Ge always gets what he wants.

The Queen is ecstatic.

Feng Guibin: "..."

How could this be?

A disappointed look on his face.

"The Emperor's safety is important." Feng Guibin shouted urgently, "Your Majesty, the Queen killed the Queen Mother."
