Looking at Xue Shu who was crying bitterly, Feng Wuhen asked calmly.

"what?"

"There are... there are little eunuchs who are responsible for transporting food from the imperial dining room, there are also little eunuchs who are responsible for washing and making tea, and..."

"There are no more than five people in total."

Xue Shu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and said in a hurry.

"Check it out and find out who poisoned it."

Feng Wuhen said lightly.

"Yes!"

Xue Shu hastily agreed and got up immediately.

"Find out who it is and bring it to me, I will kill him with my own hands!"

Lan Xinyu also got up slowly, and said through gritted teeth.

Xue Shu agreed and immediately retreated.

Feng Wuhen looked at Lan Xinyu struggling, and said nothing.

He had already guessed that the poisoner must be Lan Muling's eyes and ears in the Sleeping Dragon Palace, even if he found the poisoner, it would be useless.

He did this just to give Lan Xinyu an outlet to vent.

After staying for a while, Feng Wuhen bid farewell to Lan Xinyu and left the palace with the injured Lan Jian.

Before leaving, he specifically told Lan Xinyu to call all the courtiers to the Sleeping Dragon Palace tomorrow to discuss matters.

……

Lingdu city center.

Tianyahai Pavilion.

When Feng Wuhen returned to Tianyahai Pavilion, he found that Ximen Chuixue and Guikui had rushed back from Zifengpo, and the whole street was full of demons.

After Ximen Chuuxue's report, Feng Wuhen learned that all the [-] imperial troops who intended to kill him in Zifengpo had been killed, and none of them survived.

Such an ending had already been expected by Feng Wuhen.

However, Ximen Chuuxue also told him one more thing, that Guikui was too cruel when he killed the forbidden army, and even whipped the corpses many times, cut off the heads of nearly a thousand forbidden soldiers, and hung them on the top of the city of Lingdu On top of that, the people in Lingdu City were panicked, and they all hid at home.

The current Zifengpo can no longer be described as a river of blood.

Regarding this, Feng Wuhen didn't say anything more, in extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are needed, but he also told Guikui to settle the demons in the city as soon as possible, and not to harass the people.

Returning to Tianyahai Pavilion again, Feng Wuhen found a sense of going home, let go of all his worries for the time being, and fell asleep peacefully.

Early the next morning, Feng Wuhen brought Ximen Chuuxue and Guikui into the palace.

Lan Jian was injured and was left in Tianyahai Pavilion by Feng Wuhen.

Sleeping Dragon Hall.

When Feng Wuhen walked in, he saw Lu Yuanyi standing respectfully in the hall.

Lan Xinyu sat on the dragon couch that only the emperor could sit on.

"Meet the Pavilion Master."

Seeing Feng Wuhen walk in, Lan Xinyu hurriedly got up and saluted respectfully.

"I've seen Pavilion Master Feng."

Lu Yuanyi also hurriedly turned around, bent down, and greeted with a smile.

"Master, long time no see."

Feng Wuhen nodded and said lightly.

"Governor Feng is busy with everything. Unlike me, he is just an idler. Naturally, he doesn't dare to disturb Master Feng."

Lu Yuan cupped his hands and said respectfully.

Although he bears the name of the national teacher, he doesn't take much part in the court affairs on weekdays, and since Lan Wuxian became bedridden, he rarely enters the palace.Last night, I suddenly received the news that the princess was summoned, and I came here early this morning to wait.

"Now that the Lingdu dynasty has reached a precarious moment, does the national teacher still want to be alone and ignore it?"

Feng Wuhen looked at Lu Yuanyi and asked pointedly.

Hearing Feng Wuhen's words, Lu Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then bowed again to salute.

"If Pavilion Master Feng is useful to a subordinate official, even if he is a messenger, the subordinate official must be terrified."

After hearing Lu Yuanyi's answer, Feng Wuhen smiled with satisfaction, and sat on the chair that Lan Xinyu had prepared for him a long time ago.

"Now Lan Muling's crown prince has been deposed by me, and the emperor is seriously ill. There must be someone to stand up and take charge of the overall situation. To deal with the upcoming war with the Huangzu, what does the national teacher think should be done next?"

Feng Wuhen sat on the chair, looked at Lu Yuanyi, and asked lightly.

"Now the person who can preside over the overall situation is of course Her Royal Highness the Princess."

As soon as Feng Wuhen's words fell, Lu Yuanyi hurriedly replied respectfully, as if he had already rehearsed this rhetoric countless times in his heart.

"But now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have surrendered to Lan Muling. Although Lan Muling has been abolished, I am worried that these people will not immediately join the princess. They may have two hearts."

Feng Wuhen said meaningfully.

"Pavilion Master Feng, please don't worry. Although they all surrendered to the...seventh prince before, by now, they should have seen the direction of the wind, and the lower officials will mediate from it, so that they can submit to His Royal Highness with peace of mind."

Lu Yuanyi still said without thinking.

Hearing this sentence, Feng Wuhen nodded, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even bigger.

This is why he asked Lan Xinyu to take the lead in calling Lu Yuanyi into the palace. Although Lu Yuanyi didn't take much part in court affairs, he had a very high prestige in the hearts of civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty. Lan Wuxian's most important person.

At this moment, Xue Shu slowly walked in from the outside.

"His Royal Highness Princess Qi, the master of the Feng Pavilion, and all civil and military officials have arrived and are waiting outside the hall."

Xue Shu saluted Lan Xinyu and Feng Wuhen each, and said respectfully.

"Let them in!"

Lan Xinyu took a look at Feng Wuhen, and after getting tacit approval, she turned her head and said something to Xue Shu, and sat on the dragon couch again.

Xue Shu agreed and withdrew slowly.

Soon, under the leadership of Xue Shu, all civil and military officials entered the Sleeping Dragon Palace one after another...

Chapter 343 Shocking the Officials

Lingdu City.

Royal Palace.

Sleeping Dragon Hall.

"See Her Royal Highness."

Civil and military officials walked into the main hall one after another, lined up in several rows, and saluted with extraordinary respect.

"Exemption."

Lan Xinyu said in a deep voice with a serious face.

The Lingdu dynasty has come to this point, and each of these ministers can hardly absolve themselves of the blame.

Receiving Lan Xinyu's signal, the ministers stood up slowly and respectfully stood where they were, with embarrassed faces, not even daring to lift their heads.

If there were still some of these people who didn't pay much attention to Lan Xinyu before, and even forced Lan Wuxian to marry Lan Xinyu to the wasteland, now these people have long since dared not be so presumptuous.

What happened in the prince's palace is now known to everyone in the entire Lingdu dynasty, especially the incident that Feng Wuhen wiped out hundreds of prince's and palace guards with a sword, and the bloody battle that took place in Zifengpo.

No one is looking for their own death.

Having been in the officialdom for many years, the first skill they learned was to adapt to the wind, so they naturally knew what the situation was now.

"I called you here today to discuss it. Now that the father is seriously ill and Lan Muling is incompetent, the Desolate race is about to send troops to our Lingdu Dynasty again. The situation is critical. Someone must stand up and take charge of the overall situation. My princess Mao Sui proposed himself, willing to take on this responsibility, and temporarily take over the imperial father's handling of the government until the imperial father recovers from illness."

"How do you guys feel?"

Lan Xinyu looked at all the civil and military officials and asked slowly.

It was impossible for Lan Wuxian to be recovering from his illness, but she couldn't say that once this matter spread, people in the court would be panicked, and if the Huangzu knew about it, it would be even more worthless.

After hearing Lan Xinyu's words, the ministers glanced at each other and couldn't help discussing in a low voice.

All of a sudden, the originally quiet hall became noisy.

"Everyone has something to say, and if you have any other suggestions and ideas, you can also express your opinions."

Lanxinyu raised her voice, interrupting the discussion.

But after Lan Xinyu finished speaking, the ministers all shut their mouths, and they were unwilling to open their mouths.

Everyone knew that Her Highness the Princess was about to seize power from the Crown Prince, and she was even preparing to take the throne of the Emperor directly.

Feng Wuhen is right next to him, who dares to say no?But he didn't want to be the first to stand up and support. In the battle for imperial power, who would know the final winner until the last moment.

"Princess Qi."

At this moment, Lu Yuanyi, who was standing aside, came out slowly, and saluted Lan Xinyu respectfully.

"The national teacher has something to say."

Lan Xinyu nodded, and raised her hand to signal Lu Yuanyi.

"This minister feels that it is imperative for Her Highness the Princess to temporarily take over the government. The country cannot be left alone for a day. The one who can take charge of the overall situation now is Her Royal Highness. This minister is willing to follow the lead of the horse and listen to Her Royal Highness."

Lu Yuanyi said with sincerity, cadenced.

"I am also willing to do my best to assist Her Royal Highness to tide over the difficulties."

"My minister agrees."

"My minister agrees."

"..."

As Lu Yuanyi was the first to stand up, all civil and military officials began to show their loyalty. Among them was Jing Tiansi's chief envoy, Pei Lang, who was the second to stand up and support him.

But there are still some people who did not open their mouths, neither agreed nor opposed.

These people were all from the former prince's faction, and they were all Lan Muling's confidantes.

The leader is the Minister of the Ministry of War, Chongwen.

"It seems that some people feel that this matter is inappropriate."

Feng Wuhen glanced at those who were noncommittal, and slowly opened his mouth, and his voice reached the ears of everyone present.

Hearing Feng Wuhen's words, all the civil and military officials present changed their faces almost at the same time, especially those who did not express their opinions, all of them turned pale.

"If anyone wants to object, they can stand up now and tell their reasons. Remember, today is the only chance. After today is over, if anyone dares to have second thoughts, I will kill him all!"

Feng Wuhen's eyes swept over everyone's face, and said word by word.

"The minister has something to say!"

As soon as Feng Wuhen finished speaking, a minister in the crowd stood up, raised his hand and said.

"Say!"

Lan Xinyu narrowed her eyes and said coldly.

She recognized this person, one of the instigators eight years ago!

"It would be a good idea for Her Highness the Princess to be in charge of the government temporarily, but the abolition and establishment of the crown prince need to be approved by the emperor. Now that the emperor is unconscious, it is a bit hasty to abolish the status of the seventh prince as the crown prince. ?”

The man bowed his hands and said in an orderly manner.

What he said was correct. Throughout the ages, such a thing has indeed never happened.

"Who else?"

Lan Xinyu didn't speak, but raised her head to look into the crowd again, and asked loudly.

Many times, many things, with the first, there will be the second.Maybe some people think that the first person to speak is all right, so they are sure to be all right.

So someone else stepped up.

"I have something to say..."
