When Mr. Zhu heard Jiang Mian's light cough, he couldn't help but stroke his beard and smiled: "Old Mr. Jiang is too careful. Who among all the colleagues present hate the thief to invest? I said that Zhu Houzhao's words were foolish, would he still be wronged?"

Jiang Mian couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Your Majesty is just blinded by the eunuchs. Now that your Majesty has passed away, you still have to keep some verbal virtue."

Everyone looked at each other and heard a censor say, "Everyone, the Empress Dowager presided over a grand court meeting tomorrow. It is almost certain that Your Majesty is no longer able to do it, but everyone should not forget that there is another person. If this person is not eliminated, it will definitely cause us to be a major concern."

Jiang Mian nodded slowly and said, "What Lord Zhao said is very good, and I expected it to be true. What Lord Zhao said is the big trouble that the eunuch Chu Yi."

Zhao Jingshi nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it is the eunuch Chu Yi. Fortunately, this eunuch thief left Beijing. Otherwise, we would not have done so smoothly."

An official next to him sighed: "Although I wish Chu Yi, a thief, would die without a place to bury him, I have to admit that Chu Yi still has the means and ability, but unfortunately he is a killer and scolded by all people."

Zhao Jingshi looked at Jiang Mian and said, "At the grand ceremony tomorrow, the Empress Dowager must be forced to issue an order to seize the power of Chu Yi, the eunuch, and take the opportunity to seize the military power of the capital, and then issue an order to kill Chu Yi, so that we can support the new king with peace of mind!"

Mu Zhaigong, who had been sitting there without opening his mouth any more, then slowly stood up.

As Muzhai Gong stood up, everyone present looked at Muzhai Gong. Although Muzhai Gong retired, his reputation was higher than that of anyone present.

Seeing Muzhai Gong get up, everyone naturally looked at Muzhai Gong.

Xie Qian glanced at the crowd and said slowly: "Everyone, I won't say much about the extra words. I have done everything I should do. Everything depends on tomorrow's grand ceremony. Whether the big thing can be accomplished. I will ask you here!"

As he said that, Xie Qian continued to worship everyone.

The crowd quickly avoided it, how could they dare to receive such a great gift?

After Xie Qian sat down, everyone took their seats. One of the officials said: "Mr. Muzhai, King Xingxian is sick. Do we really want to support King Xingxian?"

Xie Qian smiled slightly and said, "King Xingxian is sick. Isn't it a good thing for you?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, then they reacted, with a look of silence on their faces.

The emperors are sick, so naturally, as ministers, can share more power from the emperor. If they are a healthy and energetic emperor and are diligent in governing the government, wouldn’t that mean that they will be greatly restrained by the emperor at that time?

On the contrary, an illness-ridden emperor naturally did not have much energy to deal with the government affairs. In this way, they would naturally handle the affairs of all and large in the court.

A light flashed in Zhao Jingshi's eyes, and he looked at Xie Qian with admiration and said, "Mr. Muzhai is indeed far-sighted, and I can't wait!"

Xie Qian sat there with a smile on his face. How could his plan be like this? Why was King Xingxian chosen by him? After all, it was not that King Xingxian was sick. In his opinion, King Xingxian could not become an emperor, at least he could live a few more years. However, once he became an emperor, it would be good to have a lifespan of three or two years. The most important thing is that King Xingxian died a few sons, leaving only a son who was less than ten years old, Zhu Hougui.

Zhu Houcong, who later became Emperor Jiajing, was only a half-old child at the moment. When the young master came to the court, he was naturally weak and strong. It can be said that Xie Qian's plan was related to several emperors, and he would be a few decades away. So it is not an exaggeration to say that he was an old fox.

Even the officials present were probably aware that Xie Qian chose King Xingxian as the new king because King Xingxian was sick, but no one realized that Xie Qian and King Xingxian had plotted against him.

After a night, I don’t know how many secrets it has been covered in this dark night.

A red sun slowly rises, and a new day begins.

However, the people in the capital were surprised to find that there were many official sedans on the streets, and these sedans headed straight for the Forbidden City.

A well-informed person has already received the news early and shows off the news he has received to the people around him.

"I don't know, the Empress Dowager sent an order to convene all the officials in the capital to hold a grand court meeting, so these adults rushed to the Forbidden City one by one!"

"No, isn't this great dynasty presided over by the emperor himself? Why did the empress dowager come forward?"

Many people showed doubts.

The man said with a complacent look: "Don't you know that rumor? Your Majesty is really seriously ill, otherwise how could the Empress Dowager preside over the grand dynasty meeting..."

Many people showed horror.

There are many smart people in the capital, and many people subconsciously think that they have seen through the truth.

At this time, the palace gate had not opened yet, but a large number of civil and military officials from the court had gathered early in front of the palace gate.

These officials were dressed neatly and dressed in animals. At this time, they were subconsciously gathering with close officials and talking in a low voice.

It can be seen from the subconscious gathering of these officials present that these officials may be roughly divided into several parts, some of which were obviously headed by Jiao Fang, and were called eunuchs in the court. There were not many people, but most of them had real power in the court.

The other part of the population is nearly 100, accounting for almost 30% of all officials, but it is led by Jiang Mian and others.

At this moment, these officials were all arrogant and looked at Jiao Fang and others with sarcasm and disdain in their eyes.

If the emperor really dies, then after today, Jiao Fang and others will inevitably be in trouble.

In addition, it is the group with the largest number of officials present, and these officials are officials who remain neutral in the court.

At this moment, at least hundreds of officials gathered here, and a continuous stream of officials rushed from all over the world.

If it was an ordinary morning dynasty, so many officials would not come. However, this time the meeting was held, especially the empress dowager personally issued an order that officials above the seventh rank in the capital must come, so at least hundreds of people gathered before the palace gate.

As the palace gate slowly opened, a group of officials slowly walked into the Forbidden City and headed towards Fengtian Palace.

The Fengtian Hall was built during the Yongle period, and was renamed Huangji Hall in the Jiajing period, and was renamed Taihe Hall in the Qing Dynasty.

Fengtian Hall was the place where the court meetings were held in the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was also called the Golden Palace. It was one of the three main halls in the east, showing its solemnity and grandness.

A group of civil and military officials slowly walked into the huge Fengtian Hall with solemn expressions. The extremely spacious hall did not seem crowded even if it accommodated hundreds of people.

Civil and military officials were lined up on both sides. Not long after, a team of eunuchs and maids slowly came around the empress dowager's carriage, and the palace guards were guarding the left and right.

The Empress Dowager in full dress slowly walked into Fengtian Hall, and then under the attention of a group of civil and military ministers, the Empress Dowager slowly ascended the imperial stairs, but sat down on a throne next to the emperor's throne.

When the emperor passed away, the empress dowager presided over the grand ceremony and was qualified to sit on the throne, but the empress dowager sat next to him.

Although many civil and military ministers felt confused when they saw this situation, after the empress dowager sat down, the eunuch who was with the empress dowager said sharply: "Dear all the people!"

The civil and military ministers of the court slowly bowed to the Empress Dowager: I will pay homage to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, the Thousand Years, the Thousand Years!

The Queen Mother nodded slightly and said, "All the Lords are exempted from courtesy!"

After the civil and military officials had given great gifts, they slowly stood up and looked at the queen mother sitting there with a solemn expression.

The Empress Dowager said slowly: "The Ai family is here today, what important things are there for the ministers!"

The critical moment has come, and in an instant, the entire Fengtian Palace can be said to be silent, quiet, and you can almost hear your breathing.

But soon, Jiang Mian, who was standing in the team of officials, looked at several of the officials.

The officials received a gesture from Jiang Mian's eyes. One of them stepped forward and respectfully bowed to the Empress Dowager: "Report to the Empress Dowager, I have something to do to report!"

The Queen Mother nodded slightly and said, "Please speak with you, your family!"

This official was Zhao Censor Zhao who appeared in Jiang Mian's mansion. He only heard Zhao Censor Zhao's expression solemnly: "I heard that Your Majesty has been unconscious for several days. I am very frightened. Your Majesty is blessed with all his blessings and will protect God. However, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and Your Majesty has no descendants. The position of the Eastern Palace is empty, which makes the Chinese military in the court panic. I beg the Empress Dowager to place the country and the country first and choose the crown prince to safeguard the hearts of the people of the world!"

As he said that, Censor Zhao fell to the ground.

In the hall, only the voice of Censor Zhao was echoing, and the surroundings were silent.

The Empress Dowager sat up there with no expression on her face. No one could tell what the Empress Dowager was like. It took a while before she could hear the Empress Dowager's voice indifferently: "Dear, do you guys, do you have anything to say?"

At this moment, Jiao Fang saw a little bit of lust on Jiang Mian and others' faces, couldn't help but take a deep breath, stepped forward, and said respectfully: "Report to the Empress Dowager, I think that Censor Zhao's words are really a rebellious statement, so that the Empress Dowager can calm the hearts of civil and military officials in the court."

When Zhao Yushi, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but look up suddenly when he heard this, and sneered at Jiao Fang with disdain: "Sir, you are so swearing at others, and your subordinates are not convinced!"

As he said this, Censor Zhao said to the Empress Dowager: "I would like to ask the Empress Dowager to understand clearly. I am loyal to the court. The Chief Auxiliary is slandering the lower officials and begging the Empress Dowager to make the decision for the lower officials!"

The Empress Dowager frowned and looked at Jiao Fang and said, "Old Jiao Ge, since you said that Censor Zhao is so ruthless, is there any evidence?"

[The third update is given, wuwuwu, fleas are not lazy, and updates are not lazy, as a result, the monthly ticket was blown up twice in a row. Isn’t it too miserable? If there are monthly tickets, you can smash them!]
