The devil is weak and frail

Chapter 317 The Puppet Emperor×Stand-In Dark Guard (18)

Minister A spoke for Jiang Min: "Yes, our emperor is obedient to the empress dowager. No one in or outside the capital knows the emperor's filial piety."

Minister A's words are correct, Jiang Min's filial piety is known inside and outside the palace, stupid filial piety.

Hearing Minister A's words, Jian Xizhong's complexion improved a lot.

Rather than saying that Jian Xizhong did not believe that Jiang Min would harm Liu Qingran, it would be better to say that Jian Xizhong did not want to believe that Jiang Min would harm Liu Qingran.

Jian Xizhong began to speak: "The emperor is filial, and it is absolutely impossible to harm the empress dowager. There are many ambitious people in the palace. The leader of the forbidden army, Lord Xiahou, is next to you in the palace. You must protect the empress dowager. She is our backer. With her here, we can live comfortably."

Master Xiahou nodded: "Yes, I will send people to guard inside and outside the Empress Dowager's palace to protect the safety of the Empress Dowager."

Jian Xizhong continued: "Well, you must pay attention to Taifu Zhu's daughter, she is the most suspected."

Master Xiahou: "Okay, I understand."

After Jian Xizhong gave instructions on the affairs of the harem, he began to solve the affairs of the previous dynasty.

"What about you?"

Jian Xizhong looked at Minister A.

Minister A is now Jiang Renfang's undercover agent. He said, "My side is doing well."

Minister A was as usual, and Jian Xizhong didn't see anything wrong.

Minister A said confidently: "Don't worry, my lord, just wait and see the result."

Minister A has always been unreliable in doing things, and Jian Xizhong didn't expect him to do things so smoothly.

Jian Xizhong sighed helplessly, and said, "Well, then I'll just wait and see the results."

Minister A guaranteed Jian Xizhong, "Don't worry."

Jian Xizhong didn't think much about it, and continued to exhort: "Without the help of the Empress Dowager, our life may be difficult in the future, but as long as we all work together, we can still survive in the court."

Jian Xizhong is like a big boss who paints cakes, but now among the people in the room, except for Minister A who has already rebelled, the others have all eaten the big cakes painted by Jian Xizhong.

*
A strange thing happened on the frontier.

The news spread to the capital, saying that a strange stone fell from the sky, and the big characters of longevity and boundlessness were written on the stone.General Gongsun Fenghao heard that the Empress Dowager had fallen into a coma, so he brought a strange stone back to Beijing and gave it to the Empress Dowager.

May the Queen Mother be in good health.

Jiang Min, who was extremely sad because of Liu Qingran's coma, saw Gongsun Fenghao's memorial and immediately agreed to his request to enter the capital.

Jiang Minlong was overjoyed, and praised Gongsun Fenghao's loyalty in the morning court.

Jian Xizhong knew the news that Gongsun Fenghao was coming back, and immediately wanted to dissuade Jiang Min.

But Jiang Min didn't give Jian Xizhong a chance to speak at all, and Jiang Min directly asked a fatal question: "Is the Prime Minister unwilling to enter the capital with strange stones to save the life of the empress?"

Jian Xizhong: "..."

Gongsun Fenghao's reason for entering Beijing is indeed irresistible.

However, Jian Xizhong still wanted to fight for it, "Your Majesty, Gongsun holds a heavy army, you must not let him lead troops into the capital, Your Majesty."

Jiang Min silently rolled his eyes: "Don't let him lead troops? With such a big strange stone, do you want to exhaust Gongsun Fenghao to death? Or is it because the prime minister wants to delay the time and not want the strange stone to save the queen."

Jian Xizhong was held down by such a big hat, and he couldn't find a suitable reason not to let Gongsun Fenghao enter Beijing for a while.

There was no other way, Jian Xizhong could only follow their wishes.

In this way, Gongsun Fenghao embarked on the journey back to Beijing.
