Zhou Yanfeng is dead!

Zhou Yanfeng, who has been the Minister of Revenue in Yanfeng Kingdom for many years, died!

Last second, he was still confronting Zhao Lun, but the next second, he died in the hands of the soldiers around him in front of everyone.

Zhou Yanfeng died in a very miserable state. Under Zhao Lun's order, at least a dozen soldiers waved their weapons at Zhou Yanfeng. Zhou Yanfeng, who was still alive before, turned into meat mud and died so hard that he could not die again.

How can a scholar compete with a soldier?

When Zhou Yanfeng discovered that Zhao Lun was really brave enough to kill him, he thought about begging for mercy and resisting, but it was useless. His begging for mercy was not responded, and his resistance would only make him die faster and more miserable.

There were many people watching around, but when faced with this scene, no one spoke. Everyone just watched Zhou Yanfeng being surrounded and killed, and they all seemed to be mute.

Yuanji frowned.

Qi Kai also frowned.

Many people at the scene were shocked and scared when they saw this scene.

Only Zhao Lun and Hou Yi, both of them remained calm from beginning to end.

Yuan Ji and Qi Kai could guess before that what happened tonight was probably not simple, but they did not expect that Zhao Lun was so cruel. A minister of the Ministry of Revenue actually killed him just by saying that. His ruthlessness was even greater than that of the late emperor.

At this time, Yuan Ji, Qi Kai, and many people at the scene seemed to have understood what Zhao Lun wanted to do.

He wanted to ascend the throne by force!

Obviously, Zhao Lun was impatient anymore. He didn't want to play power with everyone anymore. He wanted to be the emperor. Even if he forced himself to take office, he wanted to be the new emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom.

Everyone, including Yuan Ji, was thinking about how they should deal with the current situation and how to protect themselves in this situation. As for Zhou Yanfeng's life and death, they no longer had the heart to care about it.

No one has any importance to his own safety and interests!

The battle for the throne has happened for a long time. It can be said that this matter concerns the interests of everyone present. Therefore, during this period, everyone has thought clearly about their thoughts and understand their demands.

At present, Zhao Lun suddenly wants to ascend the throne and become emperor. Obviously, this is not in the interests of many people on the scene. Most of them did not choose to support Zhao Lun before. Therefore, in the face of this sudden situation, everyone has to think carefully about what they should do to the best in their interests.

After Zhou Yanfeng died completely, Zhao Lun slowly stood up, looked at everyone, and said confidently: "Everyone, what do you have any other ideas about my ascension to the throne and becoming emperor?"

In Zhao Lun's opinion, the fact that he ascended the throne and became emperor is stable.

He basically called over the third rank and above officials in the imperial capital. With Zhou Yanfeng's past lessons, Zhao Lun didn't believe that these people would fight to the death with him.

Unless they don't want to live anymore!

If you can kill one Zhou Yanfeng, you can kill the second one!

As the Minister of Revenue, Zhou Yanfeng can kill even himself, but who else on the scene can't do anything?

Since he had decided to seize the throne by force, Zhao Lun had never thought about talking about this with them. He was thinking about how to establish his authority before, but Zhou Yanfeng jumped out in a desperate situation. How could he miss this opportunity?

Now, looking at the expressions of everyone at the scene, he was obviously shocked by himself, and Zhao Lun was very satisfied with the result.

Hou Yi also stood up at this time. Compared to Zhao Lun, he was obviously more cautious. He knew that many people at the scene were dissatisfied with Zhao Lun. This matter was not over before the dust settled.

Especially the two ministers, Qi Kai and Yuan Ji, have not made any statement yet.

Moreover, Guan Zhuo is not here either!

Compared with other officials, it is obvious that the opinions of these three ministers are very important.

"Shangshu Qi, Shangshu Yuan, what do you think?" Hou Yi looked at the two and asked.

Zhao Lun also looked at Yuanji and Qi Kai, and he also knew that the opinions of these two people were more important.

"Yes, you two have expressed your opinion, and talk about your decision!" Zhao Lun said: "But you have to think clearly before making a decision."

As he spoke, Zhao Lun's eyes turned to Zhou Yanfeng, who had long lost his breath on the ground, and his threatening meaning was very obvious.

Yuan Ji and Qi Kai are not stupid, so naturally they can see the threat in Zhao Lun's words and actions.

Qi Kai didn't say anything, but looked at Yuanji. Zhao Lun also saw Qi Kai's small movements, but he didn't care. In his perception, Qi Kai was a fence-bearer with no idea. It was normal to see Yuanji's decision first.

Zhao Lun also looked at Yuanji, obviously waiting for Yuanji to make a decision.

Yuanji was very happy. He knew that everyone was waiting for his answer, and without hesitation, he said directly: "I agree with the third prince ascending the throne and becoming emperor!"

Yuanji's words caused a stir.

It can be said that his decision was reasonable, but it also disappointed many people.

Everyone present did not want Zhao Lun to ascend the throne and become emperor to occupy the majority, but Zhao Lun just killed Zhou Yanfeng, which made them dare not express their ideas easily. Therefore, they all hoped that someone could take the lead. In their opinion, as long as there was enough power to oppose Zhao Lun, then Zhao Lun's ascendance to the throne this time would not be successful. After all, these people present were all important officials of Yanfeng Kingdom. Zhao Lun could not kill them all, right?

If Zhao Lun really did this, it would be absolutely crazy. The entire Yanfeng Kingdom might collapse in an instant. I believe that as long as Zhao Lun has not completely lost his mind, he would never do such a confused thing.

However, although everyone thought so, they were unwilling to be the leader, and they only wanted others to lead. The most suitable candidate for this leader is naturally Yuan Ji.

After all, Yuan Ji is the Minister of Personnel and the leader of all officials. His status and importance are self-evident. In addition, Yuan Ji and Zhao Lun are not in the ordinary day, so it is most appropriate to stand up to oppose Yuan Ji at this time.

But Yuanji's answer disappointed them. Yuanji did not stand up and opposed Zhao Lun, but instead supported Zhao Lun.

Many people scolded Yuanji for being timid in their hearts, but if you think about it carefully, Yuanji's decision was reasonable.

After all, Zhao Lun just killed a Shangshu, so he would never care about killing another Shangshu. Although Yuan Ji's status is higher than Zhou Yanfeng, this does not save him from being killed. Zhou Yanfeng's blood has not dried up yet. How can Yuan Ji not be afraid?
