Chapter 161
Night, so quiet, so quiet that you can clearly hear the wind outside the window.In winter, it is so quiet that people are frightened. Animals have begun to hibernate, and everything is so quiet that there is a chilling feeling.

Tan Xinting lying on the bed felt for the first time that the bed without Yi Chen was so cold.Lying in bed tossing and turning, tossing and turning, it was always difficult to fall asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Tan Xinting gradually fell asleep.Her face was still very calm, but on her calm face, there were actually two streams of tears under her tightly closed eyes.

"This morning, the palace has something to announce." Tan Xinting stood in front of the dragon chair in the Jinluan Hall and said loudly, flicking her sleeves.

Ignoring everyone, Tan Xinting said solemnly, "Everyone knows about the death of the emperor. Now that border wars are raging frequently and people in the country are in panic, the sad news of the emperor's death will undoubtedly push our Lacquer Kingdom to the forefront. Therefore, the Palace has decided not to hold the funeral in secret for the time being, do you have any objections?"

Tan Xinting's move was entirely out of consideration for the Qidiao Kingdom. All civil and military officials knew that keeping the country is the most important thing, so they didn't raise any objections, "I have no objections."

At this time, Mo Wei stood up and said, "I will not agree to the fact that there is no funeral, but the country cannot live without a king. Even if there is no funeral, we should find someone who is in charge of the overall situation and handle the government affairs for our Qidiao Kingdom. In addition, even if the funeral is kept secret for the time being, there will always be a day when it will be made public, so what will happen to the throne?"

There is no doubt that Mo Wei's words are the most concerned thing for everyone, after all, the emperor is the ruler of a country.

Tan Xinting glanced at Mo Wei and said, "General Mo's question is good, I would like to ask how the Japanese Palace has handled the government affairs recently. Are there any flaws or deficiencies?"

An upright official came out, "The Empress handled it very well, and all the ministers can't match it."

Mo Wei opened his mouth to retort, "What's the meaning of your empress? Could it be that your empress also covets the throne?"

Another official also stood up and retorted, "Although the ability of the empress is really outstanding, there has never been a phenomenon of a woman proclaiming emperor in our Qidiao country since ancient times. If it is spread, it will make people misunderstand that there is no one in our Qidiao country!"

"Those who can govern the country and secure the country are talents. Why do we say that there is no one in our Qidiao country!" Qidiao Jingling said dissatisfied.

"What about men, what about women? Virtue is paramount, not men and women. Could it be that the adults are prejudiced against women!" Qi Diao Jingzhan also said.

"I dare not wait." Everyone said submissively.

Tan Xinting had a panoramic view of each official's reaction, seeing clearly which one was in support, which one was against, which one was against because of personal grievances, which one was against because of Mo Wei, and she could see everything clearly.

Afterwards, Tan Xinting smiled sweetly, and said slowly, "Is General Mo Wei too anxious?" Although he said it with a smile, there was always a feeling of fear in people's hearts.

"What's the meaning of your mother's words?" Mo Wei said.

After scanning around, she fixed her eyes on Mo Wei, and Tan Xinting said, "I just asked my lords to judge my merits. When did I say that I would become emperor?"

Mo Wei was stunned for a moment. Didn't this mean that he was going to openly oppose her?Just as he was thinking about what to do, Tan Xinting's heavenly voice continued to sound.

"My dear friends, I know that you have no intention of going against me. You are just loyal to the emperor. How can I blame you?"
