Riding the Pheonix Chapter 773: Pei family

? Yue Wang Mansion.

Yang Shu stood on the attic in the back garden, looking towards the direction of the palace.

He knew that there was a bloodless battle taking place there tonight.

His mother, who sacrificed half her life for this, is still making her last effort for him.

"Your Highness, please be patient." The voice that came from Youyou held back his heart that almost wanted to fly into the palace.

Yang Shu turned sideways and whispered: "After all, he has been the emperor for more than 20 years. I'm worried..."

"You can only be patient now." Fu Jin's gentle voice was so calm that it was almost cold, "My Lady has put in so much, and seeing success in sight, why are you so anxious at this moment? Only when you taste the fruits of the final victory can you The best reward for her."

Having said that, as a son of man...

Mingwei walked over and held his hand.

His body was always warm, but tonight his palms were cold.

"Don't worry, you have to believe in my queen's ability. For so many years, she has been holding back, just to save all her chips tonight. Besides, if something happens to her, I will know."

She left several talismans for Concubine Pei. As long as they are triggered, the message will be received.

Yang Shu reluctantly stabilized and nodded.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Fu Jin said with a smile: "No matter how powerful the enemy is, he will not have much strength left when he is half dead. As for Zhang Tan, I am afraid he has just woken up. He has been lurking for too long. I'm afraid his claws are blunt. We'll catch him off guard. As long as he makes the slightest mistake in judgment, victory will be ours."

In the past few years, while the emperor was sick and his control was declining, he attracted some people. But to say that it is dominant is impossible. After all, the emperor has been the emperor for more than 20 years, and Zhang Tan is still the prime minister.

The reason why Fu Jin is so calm is simply because preparations have been made outside.

Guo Xu can do his best, but if he can't do it, then mutiny.

No matter what, we must win tonight.

……

Guo Xu’s palms were sweating.

But he looks confident.

He climbed up from the lower ranks of officials, and may have a deeper understanding of the court than anyone else.

The current person may be in an improper position. He always acts with a guilty conscience, shows his benevolence in every aspect, and is not strict in controlling officials. Over time, officials will inevitably feel tired.

Among them, there are many people who are on the wall, especially in recent years, the emperor has become more and more lazy in government affairs, which has further contributed to the trend.

Based on his past performance and his current appearance of knowing the pearls of wisdom, he will definitely be able to deceive some people.

And his previous words should be able to win the support of radicals.

Coupled with the fact that people are originally on one's side, this has a countervailing force.

Now let’s see if we can deceive the centrists and make them think that the King of Yue has a chance to win and turn this way.

If he is deceived, then it will happen tonight, and Guo Xu, the Conglong Gong, will not be able to escape. If it doesn't work...that doesn't matter. Isn't Fu Jin outside? At worst, give him the top spot.

As long as he is the winner in the end, Lao Guo will have plenty of opportunities to climb to a higher position.

When Guo Xu thought about that day, a smile appeared on his lips.

This smile confuses others even more.

With Mr. Guo smiling like this, is he really so confident?

The courtier who was looked at by him hesitated for a moment and then said decisively: "I think what Prime Minister Guo said is reasonable."

So the next person he took with him also expressed his opinion: "The King of Yue... is indeed very suitable."

"The official thinks that we should establish a fourth prince."

"It is justifiable for the fourth prince to change his name."

Guo Xu looked at the people in front of him, anxious.

It’s still missing!

Those wallflowers, why are they still hesitating? It’s not supported yet, but it’s too late!

Zhang Tan is also making calculations in his mind.

There are a lot of people supporting the King of Yue, but our side still has a slight advantage. It seems that they have not been completely bribed by the other side.

Well, that's almost it. There are still only a few people who dare to express their opinions on such occasions. After all, it is difficult to take advantage of the merit of being a dragon. If you show wrong feelings and are recorded by the new king, it will be unlucky.

He was thinking this, and just as he was about to speak, someone suddenly walked out of the queue.

"The lower officials support the King of Yue as the prince, and the country relies on the eldest king. This is the welfare of the country."

Zhang Tan and Guo Xu were both stunned when they saw this person.

Because this person’s surname is Pei, Pei from Imperial Concubine Pei.

Speaking of which, there is such a group of people in Da Qi Dynasty. They are a well-known family. They have made their fortune in the previous dynasty, or even in the previous two dynasties. The family glory has lasted for hundreds of years and has a solid foundation.

However, Emperor Taizu of this dynasty was born in the military and did not like the intertwining of aristocratic families. Since the founding of the country, he has been very restrained in dealing with aristocratic families. Therefore, the power of the aristocratic families in Qi State has greatly declined compared with the previous dynasty. Those big aristocratic families either went to the Southern Kingdom with the Chu family, and those who stayed in Qi State no longer had the glory of the previous dynasty.

After decades of restraint, the aristocratic families have become wiser. They keep a low profile, take official exams as if they were from a poor family, reduce the amount of group-building behavior, and rarely express their opinions when it comes to power struggles.

For example, when King Zhao ascended the throne, they remained silent. Because of this, the emperor was much more lenient towards them.

The Pei family is one of the smart people. It is clear that Concubine Pei is favored by the Sixth Palace, but they let it go and have no intention of fighting for her favor.

In addition, the Pei family's official position has not been too high in recent years, and gradually no one cares about it.

It wasn't until this time that the Pei family stood up that many people remembered.

Concubine Pei is from a natal family.

And it is a big family that has been famous for hundreds of years.

When the first person named Pei stood up, there was a second and a third.

"The lower official also believes that the King of Yue is more suitable. After all, the fourth prince is too young and his studies are mediocre, making it difficult for him to take on big responsibilities."

"Exactly, I second my opinion."

What is even more frightening is that there are old in-laws of the Pei family.

These people usually remain silent until they come forward, and people are reminded that they are inextricably linked to the Pei family!

Guo Xu's eyes widened and he was ecstatic.

He didn't expect this to happen!

He thought it would not be easy to be evenly matched.

But as soon as the Pei family took action, the situation was immediately reversed.

Concurrently, many outsiders saw the trend and took a stand.

"Yes, it is better to be king of Yue. If the fourth prince ascends the throne ~IndoMTL.com~ how long will it take for him to take charge?"

"The lower official also thinks that the King of Yue is suitable."

"Regardless of age or ability, the King of Yue is better than the fourth prince. I heard that the King of Yue contributed a lot in the great victory at Jiangyang Camp, but because the coach was King An, he gave the top priority to An. King, isn’t that right?”

"Where are the Cao family members? Come out and speak!"

"Yes, yes, yes, General Cao, what do you think?"

Cao Xian came out in front of everyone, nodded and said: "The King of Yue has indeed made great efforts."

Finally, everyone looked at King Fu.

Guo Xu was very proud and asked: "His Royal Highness Prince Fu, what do you think?"

Prince Fu touched his beard and said, "Just make your decision! Why do you ask me, old man?" ()
