1054. Chapter 1054 Mother and Son Quarrel
The Queen Mother sent people to Anhe City to inquire about the news and they have returned. The Emperor is indeed missing, and even Lu Yaoyao is nowhere to be seen. This news was suppressed by General Ye, and the Queen and the Queen are probably already in danger.
This news made the Queen Mother almost unable to restrain her joy. She suppressed this joy deep in her heart and tried her best to show her sadness and grief. Only in this way would everyone believe that she was sad because of the emperor's disappearance.
What she didn't know was that this news was deliberately spread by Murong Zhan. The person she sent to Anhe City had been replaced long ago, and the news brought back was just the news that Murong Zhan wanted her to know.
The Queen Mother once again summoned the cabinet ministers. This time her attitude was much tougher. She wanted the seals of the cabinet ministers to jointly support the new emperor Merong Yihui.
"The Queen Mother, the emperor is just missing, not dead, how can he establish a new emperor at this time?" Lu Shiming was the first to stand up and object.
"The Ai family is also for the stability of the Jin Kingdom. If the emperor comes back in the future, the young prince will naturally return the throne to him." The Queen Mother said sadly, "A country cannot live without a king for a day. You are all the humerus of the country. Don't you understand? Is this true?"
Lu Shiming felt that the Queen Mother was simply too ambitious. If the Emperor came back, she might not be able to tolerate the Emperor living in this world. "I beg your pardon for not agreeing."
The Queen Mother didn't even look at Lu Shiming. She had long known that Lu Shiming would object. Lu Yaoyao would never come back anyway. When Ayi became the emperor, she would slowly clean up the Lu family. "Master Lu, the Ai family knows that the Queen She is your daughter, and now she is as missing as the emperor, and the Ai family is also very sad."
"The emperor will not let anything happen easily. He will definitely come back." Lu Shiming said.
"The news of the emperor's disappearance will spread soon, and the clan will know sooner or later. My lords, what kind of life did the people of Jin Kingdom live in the year when Merong Hui ascended the throne? I believe you still remember, but it was only a few years ago. That's all, aren't you afraid that the clan will push Mo Ronghui out again?" the Queen Mother asked in a deep voice.
If anyone in the clan has the most righteous bloodline now, it is only Mo Ronghui.
Mr. Xu lowered his head and said nothing, Lu Shiming had an angry look on his face, and everyone else looked at each other, having to admit that there was some truth in what the Queen Mother said.
"I obey the Queen Mother." Mr. Xu suddenly whispered.
Lu Shiming looked at him in disbelief, "Master Xu?"
Master Xu nodded slightly to him, "This is the best way until the emperor comes back."
This was the only way to prevent the Queen Mother from taking the opportunity to kill innocent people.
Lu Shiming did not expect Mr. Xu to agree. He could not do anything alone and could not stop the Queen Mother's ambition.
"Very good." The Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction. Mr. Xu is still aware of current affairs and knows that there is no possibility of objection at this time. With his consent, it will be much easier later, "Mr. Xu, then go and prepare. Imperial decree, the young prince will ascend the throne today."
The imperial edict for the enthronement had not yet been drawn up, but Mo Rongyi already knew about it. He immediately came to Cining Palace and looked at the Queen Mother with strange and chilling eyes.
"Ayi, what are you doing?" the Queen Mother asked him with a smile.
"The queen seems to be in a good mood." Mo Rongyi lowered his eyes slightly, feeling bitter and disappointed in his heart.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"
"I want to know when my mother will tell me the truth." Mo Rongyi asked in a low voice, "What happened to the emperor brother?"
"Do you know?" The Queen Mother frowned. Who dared to tell the young prince? She knew that this child admired the emperor's brother. It would be impossible to let him ascend the throne directly. She also planned to force him to wear a dragon robe.
Merongyi smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Is Brother Huang really missing?"
The smile on the Queen Mother's face faded, and she nodded gently, "He fell off the cliff with Lu Lingzhi, and Lu Yaoyao disappeared with him. There has been no news for several days. Anhe is dangerous, and I'm afraid he will never be seen again. came back."
Won't come back again...
Merongyi slowly raised his head and looked at the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, how can you be so calm about the life and death of the Emperor's brother... Shouldn't you send more people to find the Emperor's brother? The Queen's sister-in-law still has the Emperor's brother's flesh and blood , do you really not care at all?"
The Queen Mother knew what Morongyi was asking, and she thought her sadness could be seen, "Ayi, the Ai family has no time to grieve now. There are many confidants of Azhan in Anhe City, and they have already gone to find him. If there is any news, it will be sent back to Kyoto."
"And you can't wait to make me the new emperor. Do you really want me to replace the emperor?" Mo Rongyi asked sarcastically.
"The Ai family is here for the Kingdom of Jin, and also for your brother." The Queen Mother said confidently.
Merongyi chuckled lightly, "Is it for the Jin Kingdom that you are robbing the emperor's brother of the throne? It is also for the emperor's brother and the queen mother. Don't you feel guilty when you say such things?"
The Queen Mother became a little angry when he questioned her, "What exactly do you want to say? Isn't the Yi family doing this for you?"
"You are doing it for me, so where do you put the emperor's brother? Aren't you afraid that the emperor's brother will be disappointed if he finds out? Aren't you worried that the court ministers will be disappointed if they find out? Who do you think I am, coveting the emperor's throne? Is he something unkind and unjust, worse than a pig or a dog?" Mo Rongyi asked loudly, "That's my eldest brother, my biological eldest brother! He's also your biological son, how could you treat him like this?"
The Queen Mother was so angry at Mo Rongyi's words that her heart ached. "If I don't do this, will I allow Mo Ronghui to ascend the throne openly and openly in the future? How can you, mother and son, survive in this place?"
"Don't fool me with your words to fool others." Mo Rongyi said coldly, "Mother, even if the emperor's brother is not here, the queen's sister-in-law still has his children, regardless of gender, I will make his children the master of the Jin Kingdom. , I'm not your pawn. I couldn't understand before that you could safely let the emperor go to the military camp, but how could you be willing to let him go to the battlefield at such a young age. Now I understand, you don't regard the emperor as your child at all. Brother Huang is really not your son."
The Queen Mother was so angry that she almost vomited blood, "You... the traitor, you can say such things."
"How else are you going to explain why you are so indifferent to the emperor's brother? When you heard that something happened to the emperor's brother, your first thought was how to consolidate your position as the Queen Mother. Have you ever cared about the emperor's brother?" Merongyi asked.
"He has not been liked by your father since he was a child. He has also fallen out of favor with the Ai family and you. He was born with evil spirits. Anyone who gets close to him will have bad luck. The Ai family lets him go to the battlefield for his own good. He is no longer in mourning. Growing up next to his family, it was inevitable that the Ai family would be a little... indifferent to him." The Queen Mother's face turned pale, but her voice was unusually calm.
Merongyi said expressionlessly, "You should not be indifferent to the emperor, but feel guilty."
