Grand Palace.

Royal study room.

"Your Majesty, are you really going to make this decision?"

Left Chancellor Ruan Zhaoxiang looked at Ji Wuxin sitting behind his desk and asked cautiously.

The empress abdicated.

However, the eldest prince's injuries showed no signs of healing.

But the Empress could not wait any longer; she planned to make the Crown Prince's newborn child the Emperor!

This decision was absolutely earth-shattering!

As a veteran of three reigns in the Tai Keng Dynasty, Ruan Zhaoxiang simply could not accept it!

However, Ji Wuxin seemed to have already made up his mind: "That's right, I've already thought it through. Does the Left Chancellor think it's inappropriate?"

Ruan Zhaoxiang cursed inwardly; this was not just inappropriate, it was downright absurd!

However, when faced with Ji Wuxin, he opened his mouth, but finally said, "Since Your Majesty has already made up your mind, then this old minister naturally has nothing to say. But doesn't Your Majesty think that the young prince is too young and will cause turmoil in the court?"

During this time, Ji Wuxin carried out a great purge in the court. The heads that were killed could be piled up into a small mountain, and the blood that flowed out could be gathered into a small lake!

The deaths of tens of thousands of people—was it all for this seemingly absurd decision of hers? To place her youngest son on the throne while the eldest prince was still an infant?

However, how can all the ambitious people in the world be easily killed?

Who sits on the throne is not something that can be decided simply by holding an imperial edict.

If you lack ability, then ambitious people will be like weeds in spring; once one is wiped out, another will immediately grow!

Not to mention the current Great Jing Dynasty, which is surrounded by wolves and faces serious external threats.

"Of course I've thought about it."

Ji Wuxin said calmly, "Therefore, I have decided to appoint you as the Prince of State Affairs, the Eighth Prince as the Prince of State Affairs Assistant, and the First Prince as the Prince of State Regent. With the assistance of you three, we can surely help the young emperor to secure his throne."

"This……"

Upon hearing this, Yuen Siu-cheung frowned.

He was very old and wouldn't live for many more years, but the young emperor was far too young.

The eldest prince, Wu Ce, is currently seriously injured, and according to the imperial physician, he may be left with a disability.

Furthermore, given Wu Ce's personality, he is simply not suited to handling state affairs.

So, although it may seem like there are three princes assisting in governing, the final result will be that the eighth prince will become the sole ruler.

Once a minister in the court gains absolute power, it marks the beginning of instability in the court!

"Left Prime Minister, please speak freely."

Seeing that Ruan Zhaoxiang seemed hesitant to speak, Ji Wuxin couldn't help but speak up.

Ruan Zhaoxiang said, "Your Majesty, this old minister believes that it is acceptable for you to establish a young emperor, but you should not bestow upon him the title of king. Throughout history, once a young emperor is granted the title of king, the power is very likely to become unbalanced. If someone with ulterior motives appears at that time, I fear that the world will be in turmoil and the world will be overthrown! Your Majesty!"

Ji Wuxin's face darkened: "The Ninth Prince is gentle and humble, and he values ​​relationships the most. He also has a good relationship with his eldest brother, Ce'er. He has a good reputation in the court and among the people. The Left Prime Minister is overthinking it."

"Your Majesty, please reconsider..."

Ruan Zhaoxiang wanted to continue speaking, but Ji Wuxin interrupted him, saying, "Alright, if that's all there is to it, then the Left Prime Minister doesn't need to say anything more. This matter is settled."

Ji Wuxin's tone was very firm, as if she had already made up her mind!

Ruan Zhaoxiang sighed inwardly, but ultimately said nothing more.

Because what he just said was merely his own worry.

Judging from what the Ninth Prince Wu Qingye has done over the years, he has no flaws whatsoever; he is outstanding and can be considered perfect.

But are there really perfect people in the world?

Ruan Zhaoxiang did not know.

"Maybe I'm just overthinking it."

Ruan Zhaoxiang offered himself a final word of comfort before leaving the Imperial Study.

Ji Wuxin clearly had no intention of hiding this news, and soon, the news that three kings were about to appear in the court began to circulate.

The positions of regent, advisor, and regent have appeared frequently throughout history.

However, these three positions were mostly associated with a situation where the ministers were strong and the emperor was weak.

Some of these monarchs were dethroned by the regent.

Therefore, upon learning this news, the entire government and the public were in an uproar.

……

The Prince's Mansion.

When Jia Daoshi said those words, he left the seasoned Iron Forest Army general speechless.

The two cousins ​​next to them were also staring at each other for a moment.

They never expected Jia Daoshi to be so bold as to retaliate like that.

Let Ji Bingyan sit on this throne? There are far too many implications involved!

In all the years that the Great Jing Dynasty has been established, there has only been one female emperor, Ji Wuxin. However, Ji Wuxin's ascension to the throne was due to the right timing, favorable location, and popular support, as well as the strong support of the late emperor, who even left behind a will!

Even so, many people in the imperial court were still not convinced.

Now that Jia Daoshi wants to put Ji Bingyan in power, it will probably be very difficult!

"Nephew, what are you thinking?"

Chow Yun-fat did not refuse, but instead asked Jia Daoshi with great interest.

“Uncle, the eldest prince is seriously injured. I talked to him about this before. He doesn’t want to be emperor. His personality is not suitable for this position. In my opinion, as long as the eldest prince ascends the throne, it will be the beginning of turmoil in the Great Jing Dynasty!”

Jia Daoshi recounted the story with a calm expression.

Upon hearing this, Chow Yun-fat remained silent.

However, after a moment of silence, he spoke again: "What you said is not without reason, but if Bingyan becomes empress, how can she keep these ambitious people in the court in check?"

The two men next to him also realized what was happening and nodded subconsciously.

They both grew up immersed in the power struggles of the imperial court, so their experience was naturally far beyond that of ordinary people.

Now, all three members of the Zhou family looked at Jia Daoshi, seemingly waiting for him to give an explanation.

Jia Daoshi smiled slightly: "Of course Bingyan can keep it under control."

His tone exuded a calm and composed demeanor.

Chow Yun-fat was taken aback: "Why?"

Jia Daoshi smiled slightly: "Because she has me, I am her husband."

I originally thought Jia Daoshi would give a list of numbers, but unexpectedly he came out with this sentence.

The emperor's brother-in-law was once again rendered speechless.

But this time, Zhou Dapeng, who was usually a simpleton, got excited: "Hahaha! Brother-in-law is awesome!"

Jia Daoshi turned his head and raised his palm. Zhou Dapeng laughed and raised his large, fan-like hand, giving Jia Daoshi a heavy high five.

That said, Zhou Dapeng's personality was exactly the same as Jia Hu's. Although he was simple-minded, he was very likable, and Jia Daoshi had long regarded him as his younger brother.

However, Zhou Dapeng, who was full of excitement, immediately became obedient after being glared at by Zhou Runfa.

"Daoshi, I don't doubt your abilities. On the contrary, I have great faith in you. Right now, in the entire Great Jing, there's probably no one who isn't afraid of you. But the throne isn't as easy as you think," Zhou Runfa said to Jia Daoshi with some emotion.
