Your Majesty, the General has long had deep-rooted love for you

Chapter 33 The Regent
Su Jiu briefly explained the situation, "Father, what do you think my aunt wants to do? Will she rebel?"

It's no wonder that Su Jiu has such worries, the eldest princess secretly expanded her army, made friends with officials, and even tried to plant Gu worms on her father through An Guiren.

Apart from rebellion, Su Jiu couldn't think of any other excuses.

"Alas!" The emperor's thoughts drifted away, obviously thinking of the days when he was still the prince and depended on the eldest princess.

"Desire can distort people. Even close people, as long as they have something to do with power, they will become people they don't know!" The emperor took Su Jiu's hand, "Xiao Jiu'er, promise father, no matter what happens in the future!" Don't point the butcher knife at your relatives."

Su Jiu nodded. Of course she knew what the emperor meant. When she was reborn, all she wanted was the safety of her father and mother. When the young emperor was born in the future, she would assist Su Yao to become a wise king through the ages.

"It's just father, aunt's matter, how to solve it?"

The emperor was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma. Even if Su Jiu blocked the news, people who should know and shouldn't know would have gotten the news. Fortunately, the emperor has now detoxified the Gu worm, otherwise it would be another bloodbath.

"You have done a good job in this matter. Continue to block the news and order Liang Xiao to lead the imperial guards to guard it for [-] hours. Concubine Hua will be deprived of her title and demoted to Zhaoyi." The emperor narrowed his eyes and ordered with ease, " Your mother's queen is heavy, little Jiu'er, during this period of time, my father will entrust you with handling the court affairs!"

With that said, the emperor pointed to the jade seal in the dark pavilion, and handed it to Su Jiu, "I think it won't be long before someone's fox tail will be exposed!"

Holding the heavy jade seal, Su Jiu felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, "Father, do you really trust me so much?"

The emperor smiled and patted Su Jiu's head, "You saved my life, so who can you trust if you don't believe me! What's more, my daughter was raised as a man since she was a child. In my eyes, it's fine."

Su Jiu knew that the emperor's entrustment was not only a responsibility, but also an affirmation. Su Jiu put the jade seal by his side, knelt down in front of the emperor obediently, and performed the grand ceremony of the emperor and his ministers, "My son and minister will definitely live up to my father's entrustment." !"

Su Jiu arranged the emperor's orders in an orderly manner, causing panic in the palace for a while.

"Get out of the way, I want to see the emperor! I want to see the emperor!" At this time, Concubine Hua still had no trace of grace and luxury.

The hair accessories became crooked under the tugging of the palace companions, and the fine clothes on her body were also torn a few times.

Su Jiu stood in a high position, dressed in bright robes, and looked at her disdainfully, "Hua Zhaoyi, didn't you hear His Majesty's order? What does it look like to be crazy?"

"The emperor will not lower my position. I have served His Majesty for many years, and he will not treat me like this." The moment she saw Su Jiu, the resentment in Hua Zhaoyi's eyes could not be concealed. "Ding You are the one who falsely preached the imperial decree, Su Jiu! How dare you?"

"Hua Zhaoyi, make it clear that His Majesty vomited blood and fainted in your Bitong Courtyard. His Majesty just lowered your position because of your many years of service. You know, Mrs. An directly killed you." Su Jiu's expression remained unchanged, looking at the crazy Hua Zhaoyi, he ordered someone to take her down.

Liang Xiao moved very quickly. At the same time that Su Jiu gave the order, not to mention the Bitong Courtyard, even the entire palace was under surveillance by Liang Xiao's people.

In the past few hours, all the ghosts and monsters in the capital flew towards Su Jiu's desk like pieces of paper.

Listening to the report from the informant in the palace, the eldest princess slapped the table angrily, "Nonsense!"

How could An Guiren be so stupid, just because he was jealous with Concubine Hua Gui, he activated the mother Gu in his body without authorization?

Now that Mrs. An has been beheaded, and the news about Bitongyuan has been kept secret by Su Jiu, who knows whether her good brother is alive or dead!

"Your Highness, put out the fire!" Fu Qingye poured a cup of tea for the eldest princess with a graceful expression.

The fragrance of tea wafted through her nose, and only then did the eldest princess notice Fu Qingye who had been waiting by her side, "Did you hear that?"

The eldest princess spoke calmly, but Fu Qingye could hear the killing intent in the words.

Fu Qingye hurriedly lowered his head, "Your Highness, I'm your man for life, and your ghost for death. What's more, this is a good thing for me!"

Just now when the eldest princess' subordinates came to report, Fu Qingye listened to the matter thoroughly, and finally knew why Su Jiu insisted on letting him come to the eldest princess's side.

Su Jiu wanted to use him to bring down the eldest princess, but now... he doesn't mind stepping on two boats.

"Oh? Tell me!" The eldest princess was interested. She thought that Fu Qingye was just empty skins, but if she could really help her win the throne, she would not mind giving Fu Qingye a chance.

"Your Highness, what you lack is just an opportunity. If His Majesty really has a good or bad idea, and the Ninth Princess seizes the jade seal and tries to listen to the government behind the curtain, why don't we directly clear the King's side? After all, the death of His Majesty is inseparable from the Ninth Princess!" Fu Qingye said It was so cryptic that he almost told the eldest princess to accuse Su Jiu'an of killing his father and king.

"But how do you know that Brother Huang is dead?" The Eldest Princess' expression softened, she knew that what Fu Qingye said was right, she had been preparing for so many years, so why didn't she know that this was also an opportunity.

"May I ask Your Highness, is that Gu worm easy to cure?" Fu Qingye said.

"That's the southern border Gu worm. Southern Xinjiang is far away from Daqi. As long as we don't know it in advance, it is absolutely impossible to find someone who can solve the Gu in the shortest time!" The eldest princess was suddenly reminded by Fu Qingye. cheerful.

As the name suggests, the same life Gu, the mother Gu is born, and the child Gu can be born. Now that An Gui who planted the mother Gu has been beheaded, then His Majesty... has absolutely no chance of being alive.

"If that's the case, why is the princess still hesitating!" Fu Qingye saw that the princess's expression had gradually slowed down, and he knew that things had turned around. "Your Highness, we can make preparations!"

The next day, Eunuch Li, who usually accompanied the Holy Majesty, followed Su Jiu with a jade seal in his hand, walking towards the main hall step by step.

Su Jiu took off her usual princess casual clothes and changed into a bright yellow dress that symbolized power.

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: The Ninth Princess has a keen mind and a heart for the common people. During my serious illness, the Ninth Princess Su Jiu will be fully authorized to act as the government official, and the chief assistant of the cabinet will assist her. I respect you!" Eunuch Li stood on the high hall and read decree.

When everyone in the hall heard the content of the imperial decree, they immediately whispered to each other and talked a lot

"Your Majesty actually let the Ninth Princess be regent?"

"There has never been a precedent for a female regent!"

"What's going on? Did something really happen to His Majesty?"

Su Jiu, who was standing on a high place, could see everyone's actions clearly. She sat on the chair next to the dragon chair, showing a rare majesty, "Everyone, still don't accept the order?"
