Chapter 2496 the doubts of the two
"I also support His Highness Seventh Princess ascends the throne and becomes emperor!"
Just when Yuan Ji and Hou Chong both felt that Qi Kai was making a fuss, Guan Zhuo's voice sounded.
The expressions on the two of them instantly frozen, and they looked at Guan Zhuo incredibly.
"Shangshu Guan, you..."
"I also support His Highness Seventh Princess!"
"And me!"
"Count me!"
"I think His Highness Seventh Princess is the most suitable candidate at the moment!"
......
What shocked Yuanji and Hou Chong inexplicably was that as Guan Zhuo finished speaking, the remaining ministers agreed one by one with Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai’s opinions. As a result, most of the people on the scene actually supported the Seventh Princess ascended the throne and became emperor!
Seventh Princess, Zhao Qi!
A person who Yuan Ji and Hou Chong had never thought about before!
The two of them had thought that there would be other competitors before, but they did not expect that the most powerful competitor would be Zhao Qi.
That's a princess!
When can women become emperors?
Both Yuan Ji and Hou Chong found it quite incredible, but judging from the scene, it was obvious that this matter was not a temporary idea of Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai. The two of them had been planning this matter for a long time, and now, they seemed to have convinced most of the ministers in the court.
"Nothing!"
Yuan Ji, who reacted, shouted loudly: "This is simply a mess!"
"Yes, she is a woman, how can she be the emperor of our Yanfeng Kingdom?!" Hou Chong also echoed.
Hou Chong, who was thinking about how to get rid of Yuanji, chose to stand with Yuanji without hesitation.
"What's wrong with a woman?" Guan Zhuo asked: "We are now going to choose someone who can take our Yanfeng Kingdom out of the predicament and even return to the top. As for whether this person is a man or a woman, what's the matter?"
"No," Qi Kai also said immediately: "We in Yanfeng Kingdom do not have any law that stipulates that women cannot be emperors. Moreover, the empress in Nanping Kingdom has been very successful. I believe that the ability of His Highness Seventh Princess is definitely no worse than that of the empress in Nanping Kingdom!"
Yuan Ji and Hou Chong's faces looked extremely ugly, because they could not refute the words of Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai. More importantly, they now have such ideas, not only Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai, but also many ministers in the court.
"The country cannot be without a king for a day. I suggest that His Highness Seventh Princess ascend the throne immediately!" A minister suggested.
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
......
Everyone agreed, which made Yuan Ji and Hou Chong's faces even more ugly. The two who were still confident before realized that the court had been controlled by Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai.
What's even more terrifying is that some people who were hesitant before, saw that the situation was completely in a direction that was beneficial to Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai, and they followed suit. In this way, Yuan Ji and Hou Chong seemed to be even more alone.
Yuan Ji and Hou Chong, one is the Minister of Personnel, the other is the Minister of War, the other is the head of civil servants, and the other is the head of military generals. In the eyes of the two, they are the most authoritative people in the court, and the court should be under their control.
But now, the development of things is completely different from what they thought before.
Just when the two were anxious to think of a solution, Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai no longer gave them a chance.
"Since everyone has this idea, I suggest that His Highness Seventh Princess ascend the throne immediately!" Guan Zhuo said.
"Our Ministry of Rites has made some preparations for the early stage. Now it is a special period, and some unnecessary links can be completely eliminated. Therefore, the ceremony of the Seventh Princess's throne can be carried out at any time!" Qi Kai also said immediately.
Too fast, everything is too fast.
Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai seem to have been planning for this matter for a long time, otherwise everything would not have developed as it is now.
"I object!"
"I object, too!"
Yuan Ji and Hou Chong expressed their views.
Guan Zhuo looked at the two and said, "Two Lords of Shangshu, most of the people in the court support His Highness Seventh Princess, so your opposition is invalid!"
When it comes to positions, Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai are also ministers. Although in the eyes of many people, the Minister of Personnel and the Minister of War are the heads of civil and military officers. Among the six ministries, they have a high status and are more important than the other ministers.
But even so, Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai still have the title of Shangshu. On the surface, there is no difference between the superiority and inferiority of the few.
If it is the number of people, Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai have a better advantage, because most of the ministers in the court now support them.
Therefore, Guan Zhuo was full of confidence when speaking at this time.
The other ministers were also echoing each other, which made Yuan Ji and Hou Chong look extremely gloomy.
However, the two of them could not accept it and could not change the result. Qi Kai had already gone out and called everyone from the Ministry of Rites who had been waiting for a long time, but they had made arrangements on the spot.
As for the others, they were not idle and were helping, only Yuan Ji and Hou Chong seemed extremely alternative at this time.
The two of them looked at each other and saw the unwillingness in their eyes.
"What should I do?" Yuan Ji said in a deep voice: "It's obvious that Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai have been preparing for this matter for a long time. Damn, I have been trapped in the palace before, but I didn't expect that these two people would actually do such a thing outside!"
In Yuan Ji's view, Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai completely seized the time when they were trapped by Zhao Lun, so they had the opportunity to convince other ministers to support them. If they were there, with their identity as the Minister of Personnel, they would definitely prevent this from happening.
"It's too late to say this now." Hou Chong's face looked ugly: "You have seen what happened just now. Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai are determined to support Zhao Qi to the top. I really don't know what they thought, why did they choose Zhao Qi? Is there anything outstanding about Zhao Qi compared to others?"
This is something that Hou Chong couldn't figure out.
In Hou Chong's opinion, the people in the royal family are similar, and Zhao Qi has a gender disadvantage compared to others. Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai want to participate in the battle for the throne and can support other people in the royal family, which is much easier than supporting Zhao Qi.
But Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai did not do that, but chose Zhao Qi, which really made Hou Chong unable to understand.
