The Most Powerful Man in the World

Zhao Yushi, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but suddenly raised his head when he heard the words, and sneered at Jiao Fang with disdain: "Shoufu-sama, you are so bloody, the lower official refuses to accept it!"

Saying that, Zhao Yushi said to the Empress Dowager: "I also ask the Empress Dowager to make a clear lesson. This minister's loyalty to the court is very clear. Lord Shoufu is slandering the lower officials. I implore the queen mother to make decisions for the lower officials!"

The Empress Dowager frowned, looked at Jiao Fang and said, "Elder Jiao Ge, since you say that Zhao Yushi is disobedient, do you have any evidence?"

[The third update is delivered, woo woo woo, the fleas are not lazy, and the update is not slack. As a result, the monthly pass was blown up twice in a row, isn't it too miserable, if you have a monthly pass, drop it! 】

Chapter 320 Three Crazy Deaths [Part 1]

Jiao Fang glanced at Zhao Yushi and bowed to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother, ministers to Zhao Yushi to curse the emperor, have a bad heart!"

Speaking of which, Jiao Fang stepped forward and pointed at Zhao Yushi in the stunned expression of Zhao Yushi: "Zhao Yushi, you actually spied on the secrets of the palace, how did you know that the emperor was unconscious, and what did you do? It is concluded that His Majesty's life is not long..."

Zhao Yushi came back to his senses, shook his head almost instinctively and said, "Chen...I didn't say that His Majesty's life is not long, how dare I have such an idea!"

However, Jiao Fang stared at Zhao Yushi and said, "Hmph, if you say this, I'm afraid that in your heart you want the emperor to return to heaven as soon as possible, otherwise, the emperor is in his prime and the queen is pregnant again, and you are in court now. If the queen mother chooses the prince, the old man has to ask you, your majesty has no children, who do you want to choose as the prince!"

Zhao Yushi couldn't help but take a step back, and cold sweat could not help oozing out on his forehead. Jiao Fang's words were heart-wrenching. If Zhu Houzhao already had a son, then he could say that he would choose Zhu Houzhao's son as his future son. Crown Prince.

But the most important thing is that Zhu Houzhao has no heirs at all, and if you want to choose the prince, where does the candidate come from? Needless to say, it is naturally selected from the royal family, but even if they are both descendants of the Taizu, they are not the blood of the current son. Ah, that's a huge question.

If it is said that the emperor himself took the initiative to speak, then it is not a problem. After the emperor dies, as a minister, for the sake of Jiangshan and society, he can also choose other people from the royal family to be the new monarch, but the premise is that the emperor has died.

Seeing that Zhao Yushi was accused by Jiao Fang of retreating again and again, and cold sweat continued to seep on his forehead, at this moment, a light cough was heard, and everyone looked over.

As a member of the cabinet, Jiang Mian's qualifications are not much worse than Jiao Fang's, and there are many officials in the court and the opposition who look forward to it.

Originally, Zhao Yushi was launched, and Zhao Yushi was the first to speak. If everything went well, then Jiang Mian would immediately follow the Chinese military officials of China Unicom and start to force the Queen Mother to agree to choose the prince.

But it was beyond Jiang Mian's expectations. He thought that Jiao Fang would be on the sidelines at this time, but what he didn't expect was that Jiao Fang jumped out on his own initiative, and would have made Zhao Yushi a rebel. .

Zhao Yushi is a member of their department, but watching Zhao Yushi's accusation by Jiao Fang will have a great impact on their department. It is only Zhao Yushi's request to choose a prince that is characterized as a It's a big rebellion, so how will they force the palace and choose a new king?

Therefore, Jiang Mian stood up, and at this time only he could stand up to save the situation.

"Shoufu-sama's words are bad!"

Jiao Fang turned around slowly, his eyes fell on Jiang Mian's body and the corner of his mouth showed a bit of a smile. He looked at Jiang Mian and said, "Oh, I wonder if Mr. Jiang can tell the old man, what is wrong with the old man?"

Jiang Mian always felt that Jiao Fang looked at him a little weird, but Jiang Mian didn't think so much. Now it can be said that the arrow has to be sent. At this time, we can only put pressure on the queen mother. The sooner you can force the queen mother to agree to elect a new king, the better. .

Jiang Mian first bowed to the Queen Mother and said, "The Queen Mother, the old minister has something to say!"

The empress dowager sat there steadily, glanced at Jiang Mian, nodded slightly and said, "Jiang Ge has something to say, even if you say it bluntly!"

After Jiang Mian thanked the Queen Mother, his eyes turned to Jiao Fang, and he cupped his hands and said: "Master Jiao, this old man thinks that Zhao Yushi is devoted to the public and cares about the safety of the Daming Society and Ji, how can he become a traitor in the eyes of Master Jiao. what?"

Jiao Fang chuckled: "Oh, so, Mr. Jiang also asks the queen mother to elect the prince?"

Jiang Mian's expression became positive, and he slightly arched his hands and said: "A country cannot live without a ruler for a day, this old man naturally hopes that His Majesty can wake up as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation, but His Majesty has been in a coma for many days and has not woken up yet, do I wait as a minister? , shouldn't it be considered for Daming Jiangshan Sheji?"

Jiao Fang said slowly: "What Mr. Jiang said is not unreasonable. His Majesty has no children under his knees. This old man is curious. Who is Mr. Jiang going to choose as the future prince?"

Immediately, there was a group of civil and military officials in the court, and many people looked at Jiao Fang and Jiang Mian in unison. Except for the core members of Jiang Mian and the others, it can be said that many civil and military people present did not know about Jiang Mian and the others. Who will be elected.

When Jiang Mian heard the words, he was stunned for a moment, then he reacted, shook his head slightly and said, "How can this important matter of the country be decided by this old man, and it is natural to ask the opinions of hundreds of officials for such an important matter as the election of the prince. "

Jiao Fang stroked his beard and nodded slightly, his eyes swept across the crowd and said: "The emperor is just in a coma. As a minister, I don't think of ways to wake the emperor, but we are here to force the queen mother to choose the prince. This is not the way to be a minister. For the matter of establishing a prince, forgive the old man and disagree!"

The corners of Jiang Mian's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at Jiao Fang and said, "Old Jiao Ge, if possible, the old man naturally hopes that His Majesty is safe and sound, but His Majesty has been in a coma for many days now, and there will always be someone to act as an agent for this important event in the DPRK, so I choose A Crown Prince, even if it is to replace His Majesty as an agent of state affairs, is still necessary, can it be said that Mr. Jiao, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, has selfish thoughts?"

As soon as these words came out, many officials immediately looked at Jiao Fang.

You must know that Jiang Mian did not directly say that Jiao Fang wanted to monopolize the power and become a powerful minister.

Jiao Fang was almost annoyed by Jiang Mian's words, pointed at Jiang Mian and said: "Jiang Mian, you actually treat the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, when will this old man take power and become a minister of power? !"

Jiang Mian sneered and said: "If that's the case, then, Lord Shoufu, why don't you agree to choose the prince, the prince is just the prince, just in case, it will cause chaos in the world, if your majesty is safe and sound, then it is everything It could not be better, but people have bad luck and good fortune, Jiang Mou dared to say something outrageous, if one day His Majesty returns to the sky, and there is no lord in the world, and something goes wrong, can you Jiao Fang bear the consequences? "

"Chen Ma Li added, I implore the Queen Mother to choose the Crown Prince to set the country's foundation!"

Seeing that Jiang Mian had the upper hand, a group of officials from Jiang Mian's family came out one after another, and begged the Queen Mother sitting there, begging the Queen Mother to elect a prince.

Immediately, there was darkness, and at least hundreds of civil and military officials stood up and petitioned to the Queen Mother. For a while, the hall was silent.

The remaining officials who were still standing in the queue also had expressions of astonishment on their faces at the moment. They looked at their colleagues around them, and then looked at the officials such as Ma Li, Zhao Yushi, Jiang Mian and other officials who stood up. Many people couldn't help it. Showed the color of movement.

Whether to stand up and support the election of the prince at this time, or continue to remain silent and wait for the news of the death of the emperor Zhu Houzhao before making a choice, this is indeed a big test for the officials present.

Obviously, standing in line at this time and standing in line after the emperor's death, the effect is naturally very different, and the status in the new king's mind will naturally be different.

A dozen officials walked out slowly and joined Jiang Mian and others, but most of the officials in the DPRK chose to remain neutral.

But even so, hundreds of officials stood up together, and they formed a great momentum. If it wasn't for knowing, I'm afraid the queen mother would be in a mess.

The queen mother sat there silently, without saying a word.

The Queen Mother's reaction was seen in the eyes of Jiang Mian and others. Naturally, she thought that the Queen Mother was restrained by their momentum, and saw Jiang Mian stepped forward and said to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother, Jiangshan and society are the most important!"

Hundreds of officials behind them immediately said in unison: "Please also ask the Queen Mother to put the country's society first!"

The loud and bright voice echoed in the Fengtian Temple, which was deafening and made one's mind tremble.

Zhao Yushi, Ma Li and others flashed with excitement in their eyes, and the Queen Mother was shocked. Except for a little accident at the beginning, it can be said that all this was within their expectations, and then they only saw how the Queen Mother would react. .

The queen mother couldn't help sighing slightly, her eyes slowly swept across Jiang Mian and other officials below, her expression was full of disappointment.

Jiang Mian and others noticed the change in the Queen Mother's expression, but they didn't feel anything wrong in their hearts. After all, if the Queen Mother was happy with what they were doing, it would be a strange thing.

To put it bluntly, they are forcing the palace, forcing the queen mother to cooperate with them in choosing the prince.

After a while, the Empress Dowager slowly opened her mouth and said, "Every Qing family, if you choose a prince, do you have any candidates in your heart?"

Jiang Mian and the others heard the Queen Mother's opening, but when the Queen Mother was relieved, their faces showed excitement, and they heard Zhao Yushi take a step forward: "Qi to the Queen Mother, since ancient times, the emperor's throne has been passed down, and if the Son of Heaven has descendants , I should choose a prince from among his descendants to be the heir, if there is no prince, he will naturally be a brother and a brother.

The officials of Jiang Mian's lineage have obviously unified their tone of voice, even those officials who are not qualified to know the core insider see Zhao Yushi talking at this moment, and Jiang Mian nodded slightly, they still don't know their choice.

After understanding this, the officials naturally said in unison: "King Xingxian can be the prince!"

The Empress Dowager frowned slightly, although she said she had expected it in her heart, but when she heard that Jiang Mian and others elected King Xingxian as the prince, she still felt a little angry in her heart.

If it is said that a son and nephew of Zhu Houzhao was selected from the royal family to be adopted under Zhu Houzhao's name, it did not break the inheritance of Xiaozong's lineage.

But these people actually elected the sickly King Xingxian. No matter what, King Xingxian was also the half-brother of Emperor Xiaozong's half-brother. In this way, where did Zhu Houzhao go!

[The first one is sent. 】

Chapter 320 I'm not dead yet! 【2 more】

If it is true that King Xingxian is the crown prince, and King Xingxian will be the emperor in the future, then how embarrassing her empress dowager will be!

The Queen Mother's face was not good, but at this moment Jiang Mian and others couldn't care what the Queen Mother thought.

Jiang Mian cupped his hands and said: "I also ask the Queen Mother to put Sheji as the most important thing. If Your Majesty knows, I think Your Majesty will definitely agree with the proposal of the ministers and others with great pleasure..."

"Well said, Jiang Aiqing is indeed worthy of being a brethren of me, and I think about me with all my heart, even my mind can guess, I am very happy, very happy!"

At this time, a loud voice came from the entrance of Fengtian Hall. It can be said that in the hall, all civil and military officials heard the voice as if they were struck by lightning, and looked at the door in horror. past.

The officials headed by Jiang Mian were stiff at the moment, as if someone had tapped acupuncture points, and the expressions on their faces changed so quickly that it was unbelievable.

Jiang Mian and the others turned around with difficulty and looked at the person who came.

I saw Zhu Houzhao in a bright yellow dragon robe with a ruddy face and a majestic look, striding forward, and beside him, a figure also caught the eyes of many officials.

He was dressed in a python suit with a jade belt around his waist. He had a refined temperament and a faint smile on his face. It wasn't Chu Yi and who was he.

I don't know how many people took a breath of cold air when they saw the two monarchs and ministers walking into the hall one after the other, and cold sweat broke out on their backs.

Pit, this is really a pit!

Only looking at Zhu Houzhao's refreshing and full of energy, would an idiot believe that such a lively person would be in a coma and will soon return to heaven.

Looking at Chu Yi next to Zhu Houzhao, anyone with a little brain can react at this moment, realizing that this incident is most likely a big hole dug by Zhu Houzhao and Chu Yi.

Of course, no one would suspect that the fire was going to Zhu Houzhao, but everyone subconsciously thought that the emperor was really unfortunate, but they never thought that the emperor would take advantage of such a fire to dig for everyone. Such a big pit.

Many officials looked at Jiang Mian and others subconsciously. It can be said that they were very fortunate that they did not participate in the matter of supporting the prince, and at the same time, they were also very sympathetic to Jiang Mian and others.

Since ancient times, Dragon Power has not been so good, and a slight negligence will cost one's own life.

Jiang Mian and the others had previously forced the queen mother to elect a prince, and to put it more nicely, it was just a matter of carrying the banner of righteousness and following the dragon.

But all fools know that after the emperor's death, it is the merit of the dragon, but when the emperor is still alive, it is a sin of great treason.

Zhao Yushi, Ma Li and others saw Zhu Houzhao and Chu Yi who were striding forward, their hearts sank, and their faces became extremely pale.

In the crowd, several officials were swaying, their eyes widened, and with a thud, they were so frightened that they fainted.

As for the other officials, they are actually not much better. Except for a few people who passed out, some people just sat on the ground with their butts on the ground, crying and laughing like crazy: "It's fake, it's all fake, the emperor returns to the sky. Now, the emperor has returned to heaven..."

Jiang Mian and the others looked desperately at Zhu Houzhao who came over, then watched Zhu Houzhao walk past them, and then climbed the imperial steps and sat on the dragon chair.

At this moment, Jiang Mian and others can understand why the queen mother did not sit directly on the dragon chair, but added another chair to the side. It turned out that the queen mother knew the news that Zhu Houzhao was safe.

Even Jiang Mian thought more, he couldn't help thinking that not long ago, they had forced the queen mother to promise them to visit the emperor.

At that time, the emperor they saw had actually woken up.

Everyone is smart, Jiang Mian can think of it, Zhao Yushi and others can naturally think of it.

I just heard Zhao Yushi smiling bitterly and muttering: "No wonder, no wonder Hu Yuyi and the others said that His Majesty's body is full of vitality, and he can't see any symptoms at all..."

"Your Majesty, you have killed the old minister!"

Jiang Mian subconsciously looked at Jiao Fang opposite, Jiao Fang glanced at him calmly, Jiang Mian suddenly had the urge to rush up and strangle Jiao Fang to death.

Just looking at Jiao Fang's calmness, Jiang Mian has realized that even if Jiao Fang didn't know about it at first, I'm afraid he has recently learned the news that His Majesty is safe. Otherwise, how could Jiao Fang be so calm.

Just as Zhu Houzhao was seated, all the officials bowed down to the Son of Heaven in unison, and said respectfully, "I welcome Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said, "All the ministers are free from the ceremony!"

The officials slowly got up, and they looked at Zhu Houzhao one by one, and then looked at Jiang Mian and the others who were pale.

Just when everyone was guessing how the emperor would punish Jiang Mian and others, they heard Zhu Houzhao say: "Elder Jiang, I haven't died yet, so you can't wait to force the queen mother and her old man to choose a prince, you This loyalty, I am really very pleased..."

With a thud, Jiang Mian fell to his knees on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Chen...I am guilty, I deserve to die, Your Majesty forgive me..."

Zhu Houzhao, who had a smile on his face, suddenly turned cold, and slapped the dragon chair with a slap. He suddenly stood up, pointed at Jiang Mian and said angrily, "You also know that you deserve to be damned, trying to assassinate the emperor, it's so outrageous. You are really my good servant!"

Speaking of which, Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on the trembling and pale-faced officials of Jiang Mian's party and said coldly: "Party for personal gain, plotting evil, I'm not dead yet, do you want to rebel?"

With a puff, the crowd fell to their knees, one by one kept kowtowing and mourning: "I don't dare, I don't dare..."

"Your Majesty, the old minister is loyal to you..."

"The minister was wronged, and the minister was deceived by the traitor Jiang Mian..."
