Emperor Rong'an fainted from anger at a court meeting.

This news could not be kept secret in the harem.

The first to be affected was the Queen Mother, who took Princess Boyang with her to Wenhe Hall.

Princess Boyang went to the palace to pay her respects to the empress dowager as usual. She suddenly heard the news and vaguely guessed that it might be because of the incident in Jiangnan Road.

How could the Queen Mother not notice the change in the eldest princess's expression? She glanced at the eldest princess, her brows still furrowed.

On the way to Wenhe Hall, the Queen Mother asked the eldest princess if there was anything else happening in the court recently.

The Queen Mother has held a high position for many years. Although she seems gentle and soft-hearted, she is actually very tough.

She didn't care much about the affairs of the previous dynasty and was very confident in Emperor Rong'an's abilities.

However, during this turbulent time, the Duke of England died suddenly, which made the Queen Mother notice something different.

The fact that she asked about the eldest princess now meant that she wanted to intervene.

Princess Boyang was also very clear about the Queen Mother's attitude. Now that Emperor Rong'an had not yet appointed a crown prince, he suddenly fainted.

If there is no one to calm down such a big thing, the people of the previous dynasty will probably be in unrest.

Princess Boyang briefly and concisely recounted what she knew.

The Queen Mother suddenly raised her hand and grasped Princess Boyang's wrist, frowning and glancing at her sideways: "Why have you lost so much weight?"

Princess Boyang was stunned. "Have you lost weight?"

The Queen Mother gave Fu Li a sharp look and said to the eldest princess, "You should stay in the palace for the next few days."

The princess forced a smile and nodded: "Okay."

She was worried about her brother's condition. She had heard Wubing mention that her brother was feeling a little unwell before, but she didn't expect it to be like this today.

The Queen Mother was the first person to get the news. Only after she arrived at Wenhe Hall did Haixian feel a little relieved.

"The Empress Dowager."

The Queen Mother waved her hand, indicating that there was no need to salute. She walked through the crowd and went straight to the side of Emperor Rong'an. Seeing his still pale face, she felt a little angry.

"Your Majesty, your health must have been unsettled for a long time. How could you be so careless?"

The Empress Dowager was furious, and the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau knelt on the ground.

Just as the Empress Dowager was asking the imperial physician, Emperor Rong'an gradually woke up.

The Queen Mother noticed it immediately and sat in front of Emperor Rong An: "Emperor."

Emperor Rong An frowned slightly, asked Hai Xian to help him up, and said to the Queen Mother, "My son has made you worried."

The Empress Dowager saw that Emperor Rong'an's face was not very good. She wanted to ask something, but there were too many people around and she didn't know how to speak.

Emperor Rong An looked at the people standing guard not far away and said, "I am really tired recently, so I will let Prince Xuan supervise the country, and Jiang Qing and the Grand Tutor assist me."

The Queen Mother didn't expect that the first thing the Emperor would do after waking up was to announce that Prince Xuan would be the regent.

Her expression changed slightly, and she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't open her mouth.

After hearing the imperial edict from Emperor Rong'an, everyone could only kneel down and receive the order.

King Xuan looked OK, he was only concerned about Emperor Rong'an's situation.

When he heard him ask him to be regent, he hesitated for a moment and soon regained his composure.

The King of Wei retreated with everyone else, but only he knew that his palms were almost broken by his pinching.

At this time, both the Imperial Concubine and the Imperial Concubine Chen rushed to the Wenhe Hall and asked to see Emperor Rong'an.

Emperor Rong'an did let both concubines in, but the one who stayed behind to take care of him was Concubine Chen.

As soon as Mr. Jiang returned home, he went straight to Chunhui Hall.

Seeing that the old lady and Jiang Zhiyue were both there, he stepped forward and told them what had happened at today's court meeting.

The old lady and Jiang Zhiyue were both surprised, "How is the saint now?"

Master Jiang mentioned that Emperor Rong'an ordered Prince Xuan to be regent and asked him and Taifu Yan to assist him.

Jiang Zhiyue said nothing. Regent... this is the real power of the prince.

The old lady said calmly: "Pass the message down, control the people in the mansion and don't talk too much."

In the eyes of outsiders, the glory of the Duke of Ying'an's Mansion depends on Emperor Rong'an.

The Duke of Ying is gone, and Emperor Rong'an is now unwell, so Prince Xuan is made regent.

The British government should be even more cautious in what it says and does.

"Then does my sister also have to go to the palace to take care of the illness?" Jiang Zhiyue suddenly thought of Jiang Lingyun.

Master Jiang frowned slightly: "Your Majesty doesn't allow more people to stay with him, so I have to go."

Jiang Zhiyue and Jiang Erye looked at each other, and some worries arose in their hearts.

Old Lady Yan tapped her cane and said, "Just relax about the affairs of the mansion and do what needs to be done."

Old Madam Yan's words made Jiang Zhiyue and Mr. Jiang Erye both stand up and respond.

Old Lady Yan looked at Mr. Jiang Er and said, "You need to have a good idea of ​​how to handle the case in Jiangnan Dao."

Master Jiang nodded: "Son, I understand. I may be busy these days, so I'll leave everything to you, mother."

Old Lady Yan nodded: "Of course."

Jiang Zhiyue bowed to Master Jiang Er and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle."

Master Jiang smiled at Jiang Zhiyue and said, "If you have any problem, please send someone to see me. Uncle Er is leaving first."

Mr. Jiang was going back to the second house to give some instructions to Mrs. Qiao and Wan Bai.

There will definitely be some turmoil in the capital recently, so we can’t make any mistakes at home.

Jiang Zhiyue nodded and watched Master Jiang leave.

Old Madam Yan watched her second son leave, then looked at Jiang Zhiyue, thinking in her heart that if Achan were a man, he would definitely achieve great things.

Instead of being trapped in this world and being controlled by others.

I don’t know what Old Madam Yan was thinking about, her eyes were a little gloomy.

At this moment, Jiang Zhiyue was thinking about how King Wei would react.

Your Majesty was so angry about this incident that he fell ill. It is impossible for him to hand over the power of regent to the King of Wei.

The King of Wei was impeached by the Censor because he was not a decent person.

But now that Xie Ji was imprisoned, would the King of Wei really do nothing?

Jiang Zhiyue calmed himself down, looked at the old lady, stood up, walked to her side, and whispered a few words to her.

After hearing this, Old Lady Yan looked at Jiang Zhiyue in surprise.

Jiang Zhiyue remained calm and waited for an answer from Old Lady Yan.

Old Lady Yan was silent for a while, then she said, "There is indeed such a secret passage, but it has been abandoned for many years."

What Jiang Zhiyue whispered in Old Lady Yan's ear was exactly her suspicion about the King of Wei.

If the King of Wei launched an attack at this time and took control of the imperial city, it would be difficult to resist with the current military strength of the capital.

There must be a way to notify the outside world.

What we are talking about outside are the Yunhui Army and the Huben Camp.

Although they are not as close as the troops defending the city, these two armies will be the backup if anything happens.

Jiang Zhiyue came to ask the old lady because he vaguely remembered the existence of such a secret passage in his dream.

I didn't expect it to really exist.

Old Lady Yan looked at Jiang Zhiyue and said, "Achan, that secret passage doesn't lead to the outside of the city."

“It’s by water.”

Jiang Zhiyue was shocked. By water?

To Jiang Zhiyue's shock, Old Lady Yan told her the secret passage.

However, this secret passage leads from the lotus pond of the Duke of England's Mansion to the moat outside the city.

Jiang Zhiyue comforted the old lady, "Don't worry, grandma, it may not be useful."

Although Jiang Zhiyue said this, both the grandfather and grandson knew in their hearts that the King of Wei was almost at his wit's end.

The possibility of him rebelling is too great.
