Chapter 741
Chapter 742
"My lord, as far as I know, this woman was once the concubine Nan who was bestowed by the prince of Chu to marry him. Since she was the concubine of the prince, how can you say that she is the concubine of Xuan Wang?" Another person stepped forward, it was Shangshu Peng Fengshang. .

This person used to be the Shangshu of the Huayue Kingdom. Chu Jiangnan checked his past and saw that he was of good character. Although he was in a small country, he had been fighting against corrupt officials in the country, so he was allowed to continue to be the Shangshu here.

In the end, Chu Xuanchi hardly asked about the affairs of the court, and Chu Jiangnan arranged all appointments.

People who are kind to themselves should have some respect, but Peng Fengshang is like this, no matter how much favor others give him, he is always unyielding in the face of right and wrong.

At the beginning, Chu Jiangnan also took a fancy to him for this.

Now hearing what Peng Fengshang said, all the ministers in the court suddenly started to discuss. Although there are precedents in Zichuan where women serve as officials and even lead troops, if the Prince Regent and Empress Xuan really had an affair in the past, things will be all right. Very different.

Regardless of whether this Empress Xuan is qualified to be in charge of Fengyin, now the imperial decree says that the Regent and Empress Xuan should take charge of state affairs temporarily. If they really had an affair in the past, as long as the two have selfish intentions, wouldn't Xuan Kingdom easily fall into their hands?
Peng Fengshang's words made everyone feel even more uneasy, and they couldn't accept Murong Qiqi even more.

Chu Jiangnan looked coldly at the people who were whispering, and Qiqi never looked back. After a moment of silence, Chu Jiangnan's eyes fell on Zhang Jicheng.

He was the former Grand Tutor of Nanmu Kingdom, and now he is serving as the Taibao in Xuan Kingdom. Although he has been demoted, Nanmu Kingdom and Xuan Kingdom are completely incomparable. This demotion has greater power.

This person doesn't have much ability, but it is not necessary for everyone in the court to be outstanding. There are a group of people who must not dare to question the monarch. When necessary, they are always useful.

"Zhang Taibao, Peng Shangshu said that Empress Xuan was my concubine in the past. You used to be from Nanmu City. Tell me, was Empress Xuan once my concubine?" He asked lightly.

Zhang Jicheng took a look at Qiqi's back, met his gaze, and said loudly, "Go back to the Prince Regent. Back then, Prince Chu Guoyun went to Nanmu City to propose a marriage, and Prince Nan accompanied him. Miss Qi went back to the city to visit his relatives on the same road. Your minister and City Lord Murong I only received an imperial decree from the King of Chu to marry Miss Six and Lord Yun, but I have never heard of any marriage proposals between Miss Seven and the Lord."

"Nonsense!" Peng Fengshang said angrily, "Nanmu Kingdom is no longer here, and Murong Qingyang is nowhere to be found. Who in Zichuan didn't know about the marriage between the Prince Nanmu of Chu Kingdom and the Seventh Princess of Nanmu Kingdom? This self-proclaimed Empress Xuan is in charge of the government, if King Xuan didn't come out to explain it clearly to everyone, how can he convince everyone with a single imperial decree?"

The implication is already very clear, unless King Xuan personally promulgates the imperial decree and canonize Empress Xuan personally, otherwise, who can be sure that this is not a conspiracy between the Prince Regent and the so-called Empress Xuan?

Taking the Son of Heaven to order the world, such a major event, is not what King Xuan said personally, who can believe it?
Qiqi finally turned around and looked at Peng Fengshang, Fu Qingyun and others who were glaring at her angrily. There was no look of complacency in their brows, nor any look of humble conscience. The country has established itself as a king, so you can guess this? King Xuan ordered my palace and the regent prince to go to Nanmu City in order to cooperate with him and put down the chaos of the ten kingdoms."

She looked at Peng Fengshang and said in a deep voice: "The Ten Kingdoms have been in chaos for many years, and Western Chu has also been deeply involved. If it hadn't been for King Xuan to lead the troops to pacify them, how could the people of the Ten Kingdoms and Western Chu live a comfortable life? The merits of King Xuan, Can you deny it?"

"I have no such intention." The chaos of the Ten Kingdoms did make the people miserable. Peng Fengshang did not deny that the Ten Kingdoms were under the control of Prince Xuan back then, and the kings of all countries did not dare to mess around at will. The people did have some peaceful days. .

"Unexpectedly, the kings of the Ten Kingdoms were greedy. After a year and a half, Ansheng began to move around again. In a rage, King Xuan completely pacified the world. Although the people are living in poverty after the war, any decree issued by the regent prince within this year will be unreasonable." Which one is not for the people of the world?" Qiqi still stared at him, then glanced at Fu Qingyun who was standing not far away, and her voice sank even deeper: "King Xuan's merits and virtues, the people of the world will have their own opinions, King Xuan's strategy , and it is not something you can question."

"I'm not questioning the king's strategy, this..." Fu Qingyun wanted to say something else.

But Qi Qi interrupted: "Since you don't question Wang's grand strategy, why are you now questioning his plans back then?"

plan... what does that mean?Everyone's eyes fell on Qi Qi, with doubts in their eyes, Peng Fengshang said again: "Wang..."

"Back then, I was a member of Prince Xuan's residence, and I went to Nanmu City with the Prince Regent just to do things for the king. If it wasn't for that, how could the king pacify the Ten Kingdoms in less than two months?" In fact, When Qiqi said these words, she felt really guilty.

Guilt, overwhelming, what was she doing when Chu Xuanchi pacified the Ten Kingdoms?She didn't do anything, if it wasn't because she forgot the past, she thought, what she did was more resentment towards him, and she even tried to sabotage his affairs.

She felt guilty in her heart, but at this moment, she looked solemn and sacred, even majestic.

No one spoke, whether Murong Qiqi's words were true or not, at present, probably only King Xuan is qualified to make a conclusion.

But since it is so, why not let King Xuan come forward to clarify all this?Could it be that the rumors outside are true, King Xuan is now seriously ill, even dead...

"I'm not questioning the meaning of the king, I just want to invite..."

"Report!" Peng Fengshang hadn't finished speaking, outside the hall, the voice of the spies reporting resounded throughout the hall.

Outside the hall, a young eunuch came in a hurry, knelt in front of the hall and said anxiously: "The empress, the regent prince, there is war in the south, and the general Zhennan is asking to see you."

Everyone suddenly became uneasy. The war in the south is chaotic. Could it be that the war is really about to start?
Who doesn't know that all countries are eyeing Xuan Kingdom now, and it was revealed in the palace that King Xuan was seriously ill. If this is true, wouldn't Xuan Kingdom be in jeopardy?
"Biography." Qi Qiyi waved her hand and walked straight to the jade chair that had been prepared on the side of the dragon chair. When Dongfang Ming strode into the hall, she had already sat down on the jade chair.

Peng Fengshang, Fu Qingyun and others wanted to stop it, but the war was imminent, so they could only listen to what General Zhennan had to say first.

Dongfang Ming strode forward, walked to the front of the hall, bowed to Qi Qi and Chu Jiangnan, and said: "Please refer to the Empress, please refer to the Prince Regent, the southern border city is in a hurry, and I implore the king to personally lead the army to fight against the enemy together with the ministers!"

"..."

The appearance of Dongfang Ming completely plunged Fang Chaotang into inexplicable chaos in today's battle. King Xuan personally marched, and Empress Xuan accompanied him. It was not up to the courtiers to question the matter.

Dongfangming is the most powerful general beside King Xuan, now even he bows his head to Qiqi, and even decides the date of going out in three days in front of the court, facing inside and outside, who can say more?

How could things have developed to this point inexplicably?But the queen is about to go to war, so what's the point of questioning her queen's identity?
Dongling Haotian has not yet returned to the Jin Kingdom, the Prince of the Jin Kingdom, Dongling Tuori, has joined forces with the remaining party of Western Chu, and the remaining party of Western Chu is making trouble in the south, and Dongling Tuori's army has already left. Also unexpected.

In this era, there are no such things as mobile phone telegrams, and information communication is too difficult. Dongling Tuori's army had left three days ago, and the news was only delivered last night. Three days ago, I don't know how many fighters have been delayed.

However, Dongfangming's return to the city did not come because of this. What surprised Qiqi and Chu Jiangnan again was that Chu Xuanchi had written to Dongfangming a few days ago, asking him to come back with a soldier talisman. Or if she is killed, she will hand over the soldier talisman to Qi Qi, and the army will be mobilized with her.

When she got the soldier talisman last night, she didn't know what kind of mood she was in. That man...she thought that when he sent herself back to Mu Chu, she had completely let go of her, but she didn't know that from the beginning to the end, he never Never gave up on her.

In the past, she could only look up to Prince Xuan who was so high above him. It turned out that he could move her to such an extent.

After retiring from the imperial court, Chu Jiangnan sent Qi Qi back to the Wuchen Palace under the pretext of seeking a discussion with King Xuan. Now that Qi Qi is Empress Xuan, everyone must observe some etiquette when walking in the palace.

After all, this is Zichuan, not Mengzu.

However, this palace is completely different from other palaces. There is no harem in this palace, so there are not many restrictions on men walking in the palace.

Last night, Dongfang Ming had sent back the news from the south, unexpectedly this morning they received a letter from the southeast again, Tuoba Feiya's army left the border town of Yue Kingdom this morning, and unexpectedly approached the southeast of Xuan Kingdom intentionally.

The place where Xuandu is now is not far from the northern border city of Chu State, and the city in the southeast is very close to Xuandu. Relatively speaking, the large area in the north is too far away.

Ye Lanfeng took the lead to lead the people to the northern border city. There is still the army that belonged to King Xuan to the north. Now Qiqi in the north is not too worried. The worst situation is that the army will fall on Murong Qianqian Talk to the people behind her, but with Ye Lanfeng around, I believe that the remaining parties of the Ten Kingdoms will not be able to attack Xuandu.

Relatively speaking, the south and southeast are much more dangerous, and this is the hardest hit area of ​​the war. If Jin and Yue join hands, Xuan Kingdom will be hard to protect.

Tuoba Feiya left the border of Yue country and came to Xuan country, Qiqi understood more or less in her heart, she heard that she had brought troops to commit a crime a year ago, and asked Xuan Wang to hand over her great emperor bro.

Tuoba Feiya is a woman who dares to love and hate, she is determined, she will not back down easily, if not for Tuoba Liancheng to stop her, she has already marched west.

This time, I don't know what information she heard now?
All the way back to Wuchen Palace, just after entering the gate, Xiao Yuer came to report: "Miss, General Murong knelt outside the bedroom door early this morning, and asked Miss to persuade him."
