The Minister of War suddenly broke out in a cold sweat for a lifetime, “It’s because I am abrupt. I only remember that the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty have not been buried yet…”
Concubine Hui smiled, “I know the kindness of the Lord, but once Yu’er is crowned, he becomes the crown prince. When the funeral between Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager is over, he will be the legitimate new king of our dynasty. As the new king, there must be no place to criticize others, especially the ascension of the throne.”
The Minister of War said in succession, “Then please ask the Imperial Heavenly Prison to choose a day immediately, and then the Fourth Prince will perform the coronation ceremony, so as not to delay Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager’s burial. At the same time, please ask the Imperial Heavenly Prison to decide the day of the burial. What do you think?”
Concubine Hui nodded, “It’s so good. If you have all your best to assist Yu’er, what else can I worry about? Not only will I rest assured, but even the Chinan Hou who is far away in Canglan, I must be relieved.”
The throne changed, and the country’s mourning and the King of Nan’an were in rebellion.
Concubine Hui’s mother’s family had no power, and Chinan Marquis’s Mansion became their only support.
Although Chinan Hou is in Canglan, half of the military power in his hands can be dispatched by Gu Yuqing, the current head of Chinan Hou’s Mansion.
In addition, the commander of the imperial guards was loyal.
This is the best deterrent to court officials.
Concubine Hui never expected that her emotional card could allow these people in the court to welcome Xiao Yu as the new emperor thoroughly. This emotional card was just to make them unfair to do something wrong in public.
The real deterrence is military power and force.
Fortunately, during the emperor’s lifetime, the commander of the Xishan camp suddenly became ill. In order to prevent the King of Nan’an from engaging in the Xishan camp’s army, the emperor’s general’s power will be temporarily handed over to the commander of the imperial guards. The Minister of War is clear about this.
People from the Ministry of War will not cause trouble. As long as other court officials do not collude with others, they will not be troubled.
When Concubine Hui mentioned Gu Zhen, the Minister of War was about to bury his head deeper, and did not dare to take on the next sentence with a clear deterrence, and said: “In this way, the country is lost, and the vassal kings everywhere will arrive in the capital soon.”
Who doesn’t know that although he is the Minister of War, as long as Gu Zhen stomped his feet in the Ministry of War, the entire Ministry of War would tremble!
Concubine Hui said, “In this way, we must rely on you to help us orphans and widows!”
A word about orphans and widows, lowered their posture again.
Gu Yuqing stood behind Concubine Hui, and saw that she was playing with power in her palms with ease, and she felt infinite admiration in her heart.
Today, the purpose of the Yangxin Palace discussing matters is to unanimously approve Xiao Yu’s ascension to the throne before the news of the emperor’s death was made public, so that the court officials could resist the various things that happened without any worries.
The purpose has been achieved, and Concubine Hui is really tired and difficult to support her, then said, “The matters that happened later have been handed over to the eldest daughter of Chinan Marquis Gu Yuqing, who will fully represent me. Any ministers who want to discuss with me but are not allowed to be empty can say to Gu Yuqing. Her words are what I mean.”
As he said, Concubine Hui helped Gu Yuqing stand up and said, “Everyone also knows that Gu Yuqing and Yuer had made a marriage agreement long before the New Year.”
The implication is that Gu Yuqing was in charge of her affairs, which is justified.
After saying that, the court officials agreed, Concubine Hui patted Gu Yuqing’s back of her hand and helped one of the palace maids leave.
She really had to take a good rest.
For today, I have been working hard for so long, and I will take it as if something is going to happen.
What’s more, she had to live a long life with a king of Nan’an standing there!
If you can rest, hurry up and take the time to rest.
Although she was not very relieved about Gu Yuqing, no one except Gu Yuqing was available.
In order to prevent Dong Ce from saying too much, he found an excuse to take him away before leaving.
