Chapter 1255: Chapter 249-Turning the Tide in a Desperate Situation Chapter 1255: Chapter 249-Turning the Tide in a Desperate Situation In the Tranquil Heart Palace.
The doors of the palace were tightly shut, and the Phoenix Guards stood guard outside.
Apart from them, there were also the Human Emperor Guards.
The Crown Prince’s offering of the elixir had implicated the Empress.
After leaving the Hall of Longevity yesterday, Zong Zheng had summoned the royal family’s elders for a discussion and immediately suggested that the Empress be grounded.
Emperor Xia’s fainting was real, and it could not be faked.
The clan elders had unanimously agreed, and this scene had occurred.
In the bedroom.
The Empress was not as angry and furious as outsiders had imagined.
She did not smash things crazily to vent her anger.
She sat on the phoenix bed with a relaxed expression and a smile.
Her phoenix eyes were filled with ridicule.
She pinched a black grape and threw it into her sexy and fiery mouth.
She teased,” Someone is going to be unlucky.”
Su Qiutang sat at the side and frowned.
“Half the chance!” Looking outside, the empress’s gaze seemed to fall on the Human Emperor Guards, and her tone was disdainful.
“The Myths and the Flame Ancestor didn’t even show up, and you think these trash can stop me?
If I didn’t know that Shi Min would turn the tables, how would I let this matter go?
Even if we can’t get it, we’ll drag the darkness down with us.
If it’s not good, we’ll all die together!”
“Have you thought about it?” Su Qiutang asked seriously.
They have joined forces to trick everyone this time.
If they target us…”
He didn’t finish his sentence, but he got his meaning.
The Empress put away her laziness and became serious, which was rare.
She got up from the phoenix bed and looked outside with her hands behind her back.” You’re right.
That day will come.
From the current situation, we might not be able to stop it!”
“Do you still want to continue watching?”
The Empress shook her head.
Two terrifying cold lights shot out from her red phoenix eyes.
She said in a deep voice,” Tell the people below to get ready.
When the competition to enter the Pavilion begins, we will use all our strength to severely injure them!”
“Yes, sir!” Su Qiutang replied.
..
In the main hall.
Zhang Ronghua was not surprised.
From yesterday’s situation, he had guessed that this would happen.
He was puzzled.
From his understanding of the Empress, at this point, he was still grounded.
How could he sit still?
Unless…
Thinking of this, he carefully pondered over the plan.
Not many people knew about the entire plan.
The Emperor, the Crown Prince, the old teacher, and himself.
Jiu Xuanji knew a little but not much.
He only knew about it yesterday.
They were all on the same side and were very reliable.
There was only one explanation.
The Empress had guessed it.
If that was the case, what was the problem?
He carefully recalled the scene in the hall yesterday.
There was nothing wrong with her, the old teacher, and the Emperor.
On the other hand, the Crown Prince was flawless.
After all, she was born and knew him very well.
The problem should be in this.
After figuring out the reason, he could not help but sigh at the Empress ‘wisdom.
She had guessed that this was a trap and was now watching from the sidelines, quietly waiting for the person in the dark to be caught.
The Empress Dowager’s vanity reached its peak when she saw the gazes of all the officials and the throne that was just inches away from her.
The excitement in her heart could not be replaced with words.

She wanted to sit down immediately, but she knew that now was not the time.
If she really did that, the good situation in front of her would immediately collapse.
At that time, Zhang Ronghua and the others would definitely jump out to refute and take the opportunity to overturn her.
With great perseverance, this dragon throne would belong to the Sui Family sooner or later!
Two eunuchs brought over two chairs and the two of them sat down on the imperial platform.
Duan Jinchou took the lead and stepped forward.
He bowed and said in a deep voice,” A family cannot live without a master, and a country cannot live without a ruler.
Right now, Great Xia is not at peace.
There are True Spirits, ferocious beasts, demons, and ghosts wreaking havoc on the people.
Outside, there are provocations from the Jin Kingdom and soldiers invading the border.
The Shang Dynasty is still eyeing them covetously.
Once the opportunity arises, they can pounce on them and take a big piece of meat at any time.
I suggest that one of the princes be selected to supervise the country!”
The civil and military officials were as clear as a mirror, secretly thinking that he had come.
Zhang Ronghua didn’t expect the first person to be the Minister of Justice.
This was a big shot.
If he dodged his foot, the capital would be shaken.
He waited patiently.
No matter who jumped out now, one by one, he would be punished.
From the corner of his eyes, he glanced in the direction of the princes.
Other than the First Prince who was grounded, everyone else was present.
As Duan Jinchou stepped forward, his men also stepped forward, waving flags and shouting.
Chu Xuping was next.
He spoke in a dignified and righteous manner, agreeing with his suggestion.
More and more officials jumped out, including some neutral people.
At the end, other than Zhang Ronghua and the military, even the dignitaries also stepped out.
The momentum was unstoppable.
After a while.
The same scene played out once more.
It was now the Secret Pavilion’s turn to make a decision.
“I agree!” Grand Secretary Zhou was the first to speak.
One person was a faction, and the people from the faction agreed.
Grand Secretary Zhao followed closely behind.
Grand Secretary Zeng forfeited again, and Grand Secretary Wei seemed to be in a difficult position.
He hesitated for a moment before forfeiting!
Grand Elder Cui hadn’t opened his eyes since the beginning, as if he had nothing to do with what was happening.
The Grand Tutor was silent.
No one knew what he was thinking.
The Grand Preceptor and the Grand Protector first gave a speech of great principles.
They stood on the side of the country and wholeheartedly considered for the sake of Great Xia.
If there were no princes to oversee the country, once a major incident occurred, no one would be able to handle it.
Even if the three dukes and the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets discussed a rule, if it was delayed for too long, it would bring about great harm.
As expected of a scholar.
After playing with words for so many years, his eloquence was extraordinary.
Those who did not know the inside story would be moved to tears when they heard it.
The Empress Dowager did not even look at Zhang Ronghua and the others.
The situation was already set, and she could not stop them even if she jumped out again.
She pretended to be reserved.
