Chapter 2392 Zhou Yanfeng's persistence
"I object!"
Zhou Yanfeng stood up and looked at Zhao Lun and said bluntly: "I oppose the third prince's proclaiming himself emperor!"
Many people don’t understand Zhou Yanfeng’s proactive statement. Although many people definitely disagree with Zhao Lun’s ascension to the throne, these people may not express their opinions so bluntly. For example, Yuan Ji and others are just keeping silent, observing the development of the situation, and not rushing to express their attitude.
Therefore, in this case, Zhou Yanfeng, who was eager to express his opinion, seemed a little abrupt. Everyone could not understand Zhou Yanfeng's behavior very much, even Yuan Ji was the same. He knew that Zhou Yanfeng and Li Yang were a small group, but they were just ministers after all, and there was no need to be so anxious to charge forward.
Among the people at the scene, only Qi Kai knew the reason best.
Because Zhou Yanfeng and Li Yang are no longer satisfied with the status quo, they are preparing to launch the ninth prince to ascend the throne and become emperor!
The two of them were waiting for Li Yang to return triumphantly from the southern neighboring city, and officially launched the ninth prince. At this critical moment, the third prince suddenly wanted to ascend the throne, so Zhou Yanfeng naturally couldn't calm down.
Of course, Qi Kai also felt that Zhou Yanfeng was too anxious. There were many ministers on the scene who opposed it. Zhou Yanfeng could wait and then make his statement. Let these ministers test it first. If he made such a hurry, he would become the target of Zhao Lun's counterattack. If Zhao Lun and Hou Yi were prepared, they would definitely be the first to come towards Zhou Yanfeng.
However, Qi Kai could also understand Zhou Yanfeng's mood. After all, they had been preparing for a long time. Seeing that Li Yang was about to come back to victory, they were about to be able to push out the Ninth Prince. At this time, something happened, and Zhou Yanfeng was a little anxious and completely understandable.
However, if Qi Kai can understand it, it does not mean that Hou Yi and Zhao Lun can understand it.
"Shangshu Zhou, what do you mean?" Hou Yi said with a cold face: "The Third Highness has the will of the late emperor, and he was originally the heir appointed by the late emperor. Isn't it what we ministers should do to support the third prince ascend the throne?"
Sure enough, Hou Yi opened fire at Zhou Yanfeng. Compared with other ordinary ministers, Zhou Yanfeng obviously has a higher status and has a stronger voice.
"The will?" Zhou Yanfeng was not afraid at all. He sneered and said, "Who knows whether the will is true or false? There is no conclusion about this matter. Moreover, the third prince is the biggest suspect in poisoning the second prince. Maybe he will be convicted by Shangshu Guan tomorrow. How can a prince who is suspected of poisoning his brother and forging the will be qualified to be the emperor of our Yanfeng Kingdom? Shangshu Hou, you are afraid you are crazy!"
This is not the first time Zhao Lun wants to ascend the throne and become emperor. Last time, Zhao Lun was successfully stopped. Therefore, even if Zhao Lun wants to ascend the throne again, Zhou Yanfeng was not panicked at all. In his opinion, they could stop Zhao Lun once and the second time.
No one else can sit on the throne, only the ninth prince can do it!
Wait a few more days, as long as Li Yang returns triumphantly from the southern neighboring city, everything will be settled. What Zhou Yanfeng has to do is to maintain the status quo of the imperial capital before Li Yang returns, and never let others succeed in some conspiracies!
"Shangshu Zhou, the will..."
Hou Yi was still preparing to argue with Zhou Yanfeng, but Zhao Lun waved his hand to stop him.
Seeing this, Hou Yi stopped saying anything, but when Zhou Yanfeng saw this, he showed a smug smile, thinking that he had succeeded again.
The matter of the will is unclear, and no one knows whether it is true or false. After all, the old emperor is dead and there is no evidence of death. Therefore, there are many things to talk about in this matter, and no one can convince anyone. But as long as the will cannot be proven to be true, the third prince will not be able to ascend the throne legitimately. This is the effect Zhou Yanfeng wants.
Guan Zhuo has decided to try the third prince's case tomorrow. As long as Guan Zhuo finishes the case and determines that Zhao Lun is the murderer who poisons the second prince, Zhao Lun will naturally not be able to ascend the throne and become emperor.
However, when he thought of Guan Zhuo, Zhou Yanfeng frowned slightly because he did not see Guan Zhuo among the people on the scene, and Guan Zhuo obviously did not come.
Zhou Yanfeng didn’t know why Guan Zhuo didn’t come. Is he guilty or was he afraid?
It is confusing that Zhao Lun suddenly appears. After all, Zhao Lun has been imprisoned by Guan Zhuo before. Without Guan Zhuo's permission, Zhao Lun shouldn't have appeared here. Therefore, it is very likely that Guan Zhuo took the initiative to release Zhao Lun. Now he has no face to meet everyone, so he did not appear.
"Hmph, I thought you were such an upright person, but it turned out that's just that." Zhou Yanfeng sneered in his heart.
At this time, Zhao Lun, who was sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly clapped his hands.
Then, the sound of chaotic footsteps sounded, and a group of fully armed soldiers trotted in with weapons in their hands, surrounding the surroundings in the middle of everyone's shocked and puzzled eyes.
"Zhao Lun, what do you mean?" Zhou Yanfeng was not afraid when he saw this, but instead questioned Zhao Lun directly.
He is the Minister of Revenue!
Zhao Lun is just an ordinary prince, and there is not much difference in their status and status. He does not believe that Zhao Lun dares to be detrimental to them.
This is in the palace and the convention hall!
Zhao Lun's behavior has crossed the line, which is too much.
In addition to Zhou Yanfeng, many people in the crowd questioned Zhao Lun, but more people remained silent when they saw this. Many people had a premonition that today's things were not simple, and the atmosphere at the scene was also a little wrong.
Yuanji is silent, and Qi Kai is silent.
Only Zhou Yanfeng was chattering and questioning Zhao Lun.
Zhao Lun looked at Zhou Yanfeng with a blank expression and said, "Shangshu Zhou, I will ask you for the last time, do you support me ascending the throne and becoming emperor?"
Zhou Yanfeng looked at Zhao Lun and said with a sneer: "Dream!"
Zhou Yanfeng already had a goal of supporting him, so he naturally would not support Zhao Lun, and he did not believe that Zhao Lun could do anything to him. He is the Minister of Revenue. Even when the late emperor was still there, he had to have reasonable reasons to attack him.
At the moment, he had no handle and was caught by Zhao Lun, so Zhao Lun naturally could not do anything to himself at will. What's more, there were still many officials at the scene, and almost all the officials above the third rank staying in the imperial capital had come. In such an occasion, if Zhao Lun acted recklessly, he would not be able to ascend the throne and become emperor.
Therefore, Zhou Yanfeng was full of confidence at this time. Of course, he also saw the soldiers holding weapons around him, but he only thought that those people were Zhao Lun who came to make up for the scene and found them scary. If they really wanted to take action, they would definitely not have the courage.
