Chapter 254 Kneeling to each other

Out of the Qiulu Palace, I saw five ministers dressed in filial piety kneeling outside the door. Hyman looked carefully and knelt in front of him in his forties. His eyebrows were a little similar to Yi Yun. I think Yi Yun's father Yi Zhengshan is right!

She couldn't help sighing secretly. After leaving the palace, she went to Yi's mansion to meet her father-in-law, but she unexpectedly met on such an embarrassing occasion!

Although she doesn't like to kneel, how can she stand when her father-in-law kneels? Take a few steps forward and kneel opposite him!

"Oh, Madam, what are you doing?" Yi Zhengshan and several ministers looked frightened.

In front of so many people, it is naturally difficult for Hyman to know that he knelt down because of his father-in-law. "Dear lords, I am just a small palace man. My life is thin and blessed. It's really a maidservant for you to kneel down to me! The maidservant knew that the lords would not listen to the maidservant's words and got up, so she had no choice but to kneel with you!"

Although I heard a lot about Hyman, it was the first time we met. After all, Yi Zhengshan was also a little curious about what this woman who fascinated her son looked like. He looks good and looks clean, much better than he thought!

Well, what are you thinking at this time? He was annoyed by his moment of distraction. After all, Hyman can no longer be the daughter-in-law of the Yi family. Now the most important thing is to solve the current problem!

So he straightened his look, "The emperor suddenly died before leaving an edict. But the country cannot be without a monarch for a day. At present, the most important thing is to elect a new monarch. I specially came to invite the Empress to preside over the overall situation!"

As expected, Hyman secretly sighed, "Your Excellency, the election of such a new king should be up to the Empress Dowager and the adults, not a maidservant or a palace man..."

"Because of the death of the emperor, the Empress Dowager was too sad and bedridden. As ministers, although they can take care of the government for the time being, they must not decide on major events such as the election of a new king. In desperation, I have no choice but to ask you to come forward!"

"I heard that the biological mothers of several princes are still alive, and I believe that several adult people already have a suitable candidate in their minds. Why don't some adults invite these ladies to host the overall situation?

"This..." Yi Zhengshan's face was a little unnatural.

Six princes are still young, and the oldest one is only seven years old. To establish a new king, it is natural to choose the oldest in order to get rid of the identity of the young master as soon as possible. But this eldest prince was born to the former Empress Su. However, Queen Su is jealous. If she comes forward to preside over the overall situation, I'm afraid that other princes will be in danger. The most important thing is that the conflict between her and Princess Li is deeply rooted, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will not defect and settle!

It's still far from the succession of the eldest prince. There must be a candidate for a crown prince, right? In case the prince has three advantages and disadvantages, so that he can continue the throne. The emperor's son is thin. No matter what happens, it will be more dangerous for the country. What's more, I'm sorry for the emperor and the people of the world!

The other concubine is too mediocre and useless, and it is really difficult to assist the new king. After thinking about it with several ministers, he still felt that Hyman was the most suitable to preside over the overall situation!

But he can't say these words to Hyman in public. However, she was a slave and didn't regard herself as a queen at all, which was the root of her escape. As long as she is pushed to the position of queen, she can't do it if she doesn't want to come forward.

"Empress, the emperor has drawn up the imperial edict to establish the queen before his death. Although it has not been read, it has been printed on the edict. But according to the laws of Taici Kingdom, this edict is a valid edict. You are now the queen of our Taici Kingdom! Since she is the mother of a country, she naturally has the right and responsibility to come forward and preside over the overall situation. Please put the overall situation first and the world first!" Yi Zhengshan said and lay on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

"Please put the overall situation first!" Several ministers also kowtowed.

When Hyman met such a scene for the first time in his life, he couldn't help but panic. "Several lords, please don't be a slave..."

"Empress, if you don't answer my request today, I will kneel here!" Yi Zhengshan knows that it's impossible not to be cruel.

Haiman was helpless, "Lord Yi, the emperor has just died, why rush to set up a new king? Why don't we discuss this matter before the empress dowager's health improves? The maidservant thought that the empress dowager's mother-in-law presided over the overall situation was more authoritative than the maidservant!"

Yi Zhengshan also knew that the emperor had just died a few hours and was about to set up a new king, which was indeed a little anxious. However, he knew that once the news of the emperor's death came out, Jiang Yu would definitely take action. If Jiang Yu took the opportunity to seize power, how could he be worthy of the emperor's entrustment?

Be sure to set up a new king before Jiang Yu's action, so that he has no opportunity to take advantage of him. If the new king ascends to the throne, even if he is ready to seize power, he will have some scruples. After all, not everyone can bear the charge of being a traitor!

This matter can't be delayed for a moment. I really can't wait for Empress Dowager Shu to wake up!

"The emperor is the foundation of the country. There is no king for a day, and the people's heart is unstable. Please put the country first!" Yi Zhengshan pleaded, and then kowtowed several times.

It's a sin to let your father-in-law kneel in front of you. If you kneel down, won't you be punished by God? But if she comes forward today, it will be equivalent to admitting the identity of the queen. If she wants to take off this hat again, I'm afraid it will be difficult in her life!

Haiman was in a dilemma and had no idea for a while, so he had to look at his aunt for help.

Aunt Jing's eyes flashed and leaned over and said, "Empress, it's getting late today. Why don't you let the adults go back first? It's not too late to discuss it tomorrow!"

Hyman understands that Jing's aunt is asking her to use the formula, and so far, she has to do so. So he said, "Dadults, the new king is not the same. Do you always have to give me some time to think about it?"

"It's not too late, it's time to change!" Yi Zhengshan still insists.

Hyman gritted his teeth and said, "It's so late today, but it's not the time to discuss big things. Just give me one night, and I will definitely reply to you tomorrow. Isn't that okay?

With Hyman's promise, Yi Zhengshan exchanged eyes with several ministers and nodded, "That's the only way. Please consider carefully for the sake of the world of Taici country!"

Seeing that he agreed, Hyman breathed a little relief and stood up with the help of his aunt.

Yi Zhengshan and others also got up and retreated to leave. As soon as they turned around, they saw Yi Yun hurried this way and suddenly changed their faces. This rebel has still entered the palace!

"Come on!" He shouted in a low voice.

"Lord Yi, what can I do for you?" Two bodyguards answered.

"From now on, you are responsible for protecting the Empress. If the empress has a little difference, none of you can live. Do you understand?

"Yes!"

Haiman was wondering why Yi Zhengshan was suddenly like this. When he raised his eyes and saw Yi Yun, he was shocked to open his eyes? Why is he here?

Yi Yun didn't expect that Yi Zhengshan would be in the harem. For a moment, he couldn't figure out the situation. He couldn't help but stop and looked over, hoping that someone could explain it to him.

"What are you doing here?" Yi Zhengshan came to him with a cold face.

In front of so many people, Yi Yun can't break his face, so he has to say vaguely, "The villain comes to do something and leave immediately after doing things!"

"You'd better not have any crooked ideas, otherwise...hum!" Yi Zhengshan snorted heavily and brushed his sleeves and left.

Haiman woke up from surprise and met Yi Yun. The two bodyguards immediately followed, and she couldn't help frowning...
