People from several aristocratic families were quickly arrested. Because the prison was already overcrowded, they had to temporarily lock them up in the prison of Chengtian Mansion. In just a few days, two or three out of ten officials in the powerful courts in the capital were locked up, which shows the influence of these famous families. At the same time, because Chu Ling kept arresting people like this, many people felt panic. He felt that the princess's methods were really too radical.

In the morning court, Emperor Yongjia sat on the hall with a tired look on his face and looked at His Highness’s ministers. Unlike usual, there was still a person standing next to Emperor Yongjia today... Princess Shenyou.

Chu Ling was wearing a red dress and stood calmly on the side of Emperor Yongjia's dragon chaise. She was also looking at the court officials who were secretly looking up and peeping at her.

Many people feel uncomfortable when Princess Shenyou appears in such court meetings, but it is not surprising. After all, since Your Majesty has issued an order to Princess Shenyou to supervise the country, there is always a statement whether this matter is successful or not. Now it seems that His Majesty has not listened to their advice these two days, and he still made up his mind to hand over the court to Princess Shenyou.

Sure enough, Emperor Yongjia raised his hand and rubbed his forehead while saying tiredly, "My decree should have known my will. From today on, he will be the conferred Princess Shenyou as the "Superminating the Kingdom Shenyou Princess". In the future, everything in the court will be left to Princess Shenyou to deal with." Someone immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, think twice, Your Majesty is in his prime, princess..." This was really against his will. If Emperor Yongjia was healthy, although he was not as old as the emperor at this age, he was indeed not old. However, Emperor Yongjia had never been in good health. Now he had just arrived at the court and seemed to be a little unable to sit still. How could he have a legitimate year?

Emperor Yongjia snorted lightly, obviously not taking this compliment, and said coldly, "I am now becoming weaker and weaker, and the Imperial Hospital has no choice but to delay the government. The princess is smart and agile, so she entrusts the government to her. My dear friends should do everything they can to assist the princess."

Everyone looked at the Princess Shenyou standing beside Emperor Yongjia, and then looked at Emperor Yongjia's resolute face and felt that the general situation was gone. His Majesty ignored their advice, and even several old ministers knelt at the gate of the palace. The Prince of Nankang had just failed to seize power, and there were many important officials in the court in each family. Who dared to act rashly now? In this way, could it be that a woman was really in power?

I couldn't help but look at Shangguan Chengyi, Lord Zhu and others standing in front, as well as royal relatives such as Prince Boning, but I saw that they all looked dull and obviously had a good acceptance.

“…”

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty." A white-haired old man asked tremblingly, "Princess is responsible for the country, I don't know... the matter of the heir..." If the princess is inevitable, then at least he must first determine the emperor's heir, right? In order to avoid one day His Majesty will return to heaven and have another dispute over the throne. The best result is of course that Your Majesty can hold on for two more years. The young master of the Boning Palace is already twelve years old. As long as Your Majesty holds for another three or five years, the emperor's heirs can openly take power. God blesses the public households... Of course, it is time to delegate power.

Emperor Yongjia looked at Chu Ling, thought for a moment, and said, "According to my previous order, I will adopt the eldest grandson of the Boning Prince's Mansion as the prince. Give it a name, Zhao." Changsheng and Chu Ling are different from each other, and since they have adopted it as the emperor's heir, their former name will naturally not be used. Emperor Yongjia glanced at His Highness's Prince Boning Prince and asked, "Prince Boning Prince, what do you think?"

The Prince of Boning hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty is a honor for the Boning Mansion. I thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

Emperor Yongjia nodded, satisfied with the attitude of the Prince of Boning. He pondered for a moment and said, "I will give the Prince of Boning to King Ning, and I will be granted the Prince of Boning to King Ning. If you are the concubines, you will be bestowed as the prince."

"I thank Your Majesty!" Prince Boning said excitedly, although his grandson had nothing to do with the Boning Mansion after adoption. If he had just adopted him, even if he was a prince's mansion, he would not agree. But now he is the emperor's heir. Don't say whether they have the power to refuse, even if he had the Boning Prince, he would not refuse. If he could watch his direct grandson ascend to that position, no one would want to give up. Besides, even if he had nothing to do with the Boning Mansion, would he still not take care of the Boning Mansion after he ascends the throne in the future?

Emperor Yongjia was already a little tired after saying this for a while. He leaned against the dragon throne and said to Chu Ling, "A great ceremony for the additional title, Qing'er will choose a good day with the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Heaven Prison, and go and do it well."

Chu Ling said, "These are all false rites, so let's just keep everything simple. But you can't be careless about adopting the emperor's heir." Emperor Yongjia knew that his daughter was worried that her health should not be too hard, and he felt very comforted. However, he really couldn't be frugal in adopting the emperor's heir, so he had to feel wronged. He sighed and said, "Everything should be done as Qing'er said." After saying this, Emperor Yongjia helped him turn to the back hall from the eunuch. When he got up, everyone saw that His Majesty's face looked even worse than before. It was obvious that he was in a bad state.

Looking at the woman in red standing in the hall, there was a silence in the hall. It seemed as if everyone had forgotten what to say in an instant.

The court officials forgot, but Chu Ling had no hope. Chu Ling looked at the Prince of Boning who had just stood up... Now it should be called King Ning, and said, "Uncle Ning, and all sirs, the ceremony of adopting the emperor's heir will be chosen ten days later. What do you think?" If it were normal, these ministers might feel that it was too hasty. After all, adopting the emperor's heir still needs to prepare a lot of things. Although Your Majesty did not directly enthrone the crown prince, there is only this one emperor's heir, so what is the difference between it and the crown prince? But now, they only hope to have a legitimate prince under His Majesty, even if it is seniority, age, time, etc. are not a problem that needs to be entangled.

Seeing many people looking at him with vigilant gazes, Chu Ling laughed in his heart. They didn’t know that Jun Wuhuan was back. Otherwise, wouldn’t it scare these old ministers who were sensitive and nervous when they knew the news at this time?

Everyone responded quickly, and Chu Ling said, "Since that's the case, let me leave this matter to Uncle Ning Wang. I just want to be wronged by Uncle Ning Wang, and I am afraid that I will be simplified with the Prince of Geng."

King Ning didn't feel wronged at all. The princess's enthronement was simplified, let alone him? He asked him to prepare for the ceremony to adopt the emperor's heir. He was even more grateful to Princess Shenyou. He was also reluctant to let go of Changsheng, his grandson, but he understood better what choices were. Now he could still do these things for him as his grandfather. After the hall, Changsheng would have nothing to do with the Ning Prince's Mansion. Even if he met in the future, he could only call him Your Highness and Uncle Wang.

After saying this, Chu Ling smiled and looked at the court officials who were hesitant and seemed to want to say something but were somewhat concerned. He smiled and said, "Since all these things have been decided, then there is one thing that needs to be resolved urgently. Moreover, it must be resolved before adopting the emperor's heir. I wonder what you guys want to do?"

Everyone looked at each other suspiciously, and then someone stepped forward and said cautiously, "I don't know what the princess said?"

Chu Ling said, "According to the news obtained by our palace, at least 50,000 soldiers from the sea. They have landed in Jiaozhou and are coming to Pingjing. Everyone thinks, is this matter... an urgent matter?"

"What?!"

The court suddenly became a furious, and even the matter of the princess in charge of the country and the adoption of the emperor's heir who had just been struggling were thrown behind. Many people's faces became panicked, but more people didn't believe it.

"This is impossible?! If a tribe of the tribe landed in Jiaozhou, why would the Jiaozhou defenders not report?" said humane.

Chu Ling curled her lips slightly, who was the general of the Jiaozhou garrison... "

Everyone was silent, the Jiaozhou garrison general... seemed to have some in-law relationship with the Cui family. Could it be...

Some people still don’t believe it, “Is the princess an alarmist? If there were indeed people from the Clan going south, how could the general guarding the Jiaozhou province not report it?”

Chu Ling chuckled, "Jiangzhou is not very far from Pingjing, right? Did you know soon? Why don't we wait?"

Everyone was ashamed. How could such a thing be waited? What if it was true, would you wait for the soldiers of the Clan to come to the city?

"Princess, why don't we send someone to investigate first?"

"First send someone to send orders from all over the country to lead troops back to Beijing to protect the enemy!"

"First take pictures of the troops and go to the border of Jiaozhou, and it is easy to deal with anything wrong!"

The hall immediately became noisy. Because the emperor was not there, the ministers were less restrained, and they spoke out their opinions on the spot. Chu Ling stood in the hall, looking at the noisy hall, smiling and raising his eyebrows. Look, isn’t this very energetic? In recent years, these officials were all eating and waiting for corpses to be eaten by the corpses, which was obviously because they were too far away from danger. If they were still neighbors with the gentry and without the barriers of the Lingcang River, they might have worked hard to drive the gentry out.

Feng Zheng stood up from the generals, "You are the princess, the last general is willing to lead his troops to block the soldiers of the Clan!"

Seeing Feng Zheng speak, many generals also come out to ask for their orders. In the court of Tianqi, generals rarely speak. However, if the people of the Clan really attack, they will naturally not care much about it.

Chu Ling smiled and said, "Jiaozhou is only two days away from Pingjing. There are neither dangerous passes nor cities between the two places. Compared with the cavalry of the Clan, the Apocalypse Imperial Army is not brave and good at fighting. General Feng is not impatient."

Feng Zheng frowned slightly, and wanted to say something else.

Chu Ling raised his hand to stop him and smiled and said, "Don't worry, General Feng, naturally, there are some wars to fight you. As for the people of the Clan... I already have a plan in my mind."

Feng Zheng also knew that the princess had never said anything, so he nodded, "Yes, princess!"
