Now, there is no news from all directions, and only Academician Song in the court has the most weighty and unequivocal opinion. If there is anyone who is most likely to ascend the throne, it must be the fifth prince supported by Academician Song, Zhao Hengrui.
Song Bingzhang's face was calm, and there was no wave in his eyes.
Song Bingzhang was the only one in the court who could speak usefully. Everyone's eyes turned to him, waiting for him to make a decision.
"Everyone is a little too impatient. Since the Emperor has appointed His Highness as the Crown Prince, then our dynasty already has a Crown Prince. Nowadays, the situation is turbulent and people are panicked. As the people at the helm, we must not give rise to internal strife.
Thoughts! Doing this will harm the foundation of the nation and risk overthrowing the dynasty!"
There was a sonorous and powerful sound, and for a moment, no one in the court dared to make a sound.
"I support what Old Scholar Song said. The prince is still fighting at the front. We just need to wait for the prince's triumphant return! We must not have other thoughts!"
Among all the people, Jiang Qingping stood out, with an iron frame and clear eyes.
The situation was brought under control for a moment, and no one among the ministers said anything, but no one could see the mess in their hearts.
"Humph." Two sneers came from the silence.
He is actually the mortal enemy of the eldest prince's political party, Wei Hujie.
"The prince has always been very violent and willful, and he doesn't care about others at all! He kills innocent people indiscriminately all the time, and he has no sense of loyalty. His own princess is still ill in bed, and he has already died before anything happened to her.
Accepting a new crown princess is really a shame to our dynasty and extremely ridiculous!"
Guard Jie pressed forward step by step, but his eyes were full of desperate madness.
He suddenly took out his dagger from his arms and pointed at the ministers.
For a moment, no one reacted, they were frightened and panicked, their faces full of panic.
You must know that according to the rules of the court, you must not bring weapons into the Tai Chi Hall when you go to court to discuss matters. Otherwise, you will be pulled out and beheaded in public.
Unexpectedly, this guard Jie actually avoided being searched by the guards in the front hall and entered with weapons.
"You'd better shut up, otherwise I'll kill you all, and I won't spare any of you!"
Everyone's throats were tight for a moment, and no one dared to make any random moves.
In the panic, only Song Bingzhang and Jiang Qingping remained motionless.
"Huh huh huh, Mr. Wei, you are really good at it! You actually managed to do this. Since in Mr. Wei's mind, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not the best candidate to take the throne, then who is?"
The last thing Wei Hujie wants to see now is Song Bingzhang's extremely calm face, as if he knows everything and everything is under his control, which is extremely disgusting.
The sharp dagger suddenly changed its direction and approached the old humerus that had remained motionless despite the weather.
"Hmph, the royal family is tyrannical. Now this plague is coming from heaven, and it is heaven that wants to kill them. The Zhao family should change their names and choose a new person to take office!"
After saying this, everyone present was shocked. It turned out that Wei Hujie actually wanted to take advantage of the chaos to stand up from a tree and become a king on his own. He was simply crazy!
With such a crazy idea, Song Bingzhang could only smile, with a flash of contemptuous arrogance, as if he didn't take the person in front of him seriously at all.
Song Bingzhang took two steps forward, his eyes full of smiles.
"Master Wei thinks too highly of himself. I'm afraid you won't be able to sit in that position!"
Wei Hujie's face was filled with a crazy smile, full of power and madness.
"Humph, hahaha, Master Song doesn't have to worry about it now! Come in, everyone!"
After giving the order, the guards who had been waiting outside for a long time rushed in immediately, holding long swords in their hands and looking at everyone present inside and outside.
Wei Hujie threw down the dagger in his hand and burst into laughter, like a dying man doing his last dance.
"Huh, do you think I'm that stupid? I've been lurking in the dark for so many years, recruiting troops and secret guards. I've been planning hard for so long just to wait for this moment to come. I never expected that this moment would come like this.
Come on, I can finally lead Qianqiu and sit on the supreme position!"
In front of him, Jiang Qingping was not afraid at all, he only felt sad for the person in front of him.
Song Bingzhang had a contemptuous smile on his face, "Master Wei is really good at it. Your Majesty sent me to spy on you secretly for so long, but I still couldn't find Master Wei's tricks. It's really amazing. I've been waiting for you, but I've been waiting for a long time.
!”
With these unclear words, Wei Hujie's heart immediately became tense.
"You, what do you mean by this?!"
"His Royal Highness is back!"
Outside, loud shouts echoed back into the hall, and everyone was stunned.
The overwhelming sound of horse hooves echoed back to the palace. Zhao Zhaowu was wearing a long cloak with a stern smile on his face.
"Wow! It's really wonderful. I really came back at the right time to watch such a good show!"
Zhao Zhaowu chuckled twice and glanced at Song Zeyi next to him.
The military camp had already arrived in the capital last night. He originally wanted to drive straight in and deal with all the remaining party members, but he was stopped by Song Zeyi.
"Now that the government is in turmoil, there must be many forces in the dark that have begun to use force. Why don't we just wait until tomorrow to show up again and deal with those with bad intentions!"
Zhao Zhaowu got off his horse, raised his hand and threw the cloak to the guard, then walked in step by step with his hands behind his back.
"I am here to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
The old ministers in the palace were extremely discerning. They all knelt down one by one, their official hats covering the ground, and they did not dare to raise their heads at all.
The sudden situation made Wei Hujie's eyes almost red with excitement, and the hand holding the dagger was shaking crazily and uncontrollably.
His eyes were already scarlet.
"You, you, when did you come back! My people, my people said it clearly!"
This short-sighted and headstrong look would make Zhao Zhaowu laugh out loud.
"Hmph, Master Wei, when Gu's secret guards entered the palace last night, they said they encountered another force. I guess it was yours, Master Wei. Do you think they had followed your instructions, sneaked into the palace, and killed
Did the late emperor occupy the entire Forbidden City?"
As the words fell, Wei Hujie's hands began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Humph, I discovered them yesterday and asked my men to deal with them all secretly, and made it look like everything was going according to your wishes, just to see who was so bold as to kill the late emperor!"
What a big hat, it stuck straight on Wei Hujie's head.
It was so shocked that the dagger in his hand couldn't help but hit the ground.
"No, it's not me, it's not me! I, I didn't kill the late emperor, I didn't!"
