At the tender age of eight, he was hastily dragged out and made emperor!

"What is Han Qing thinking? How dare he resign at this time? Isn't he clearly trying to embarrass the three empresses?!"

"Who says otherwise? We haven't even settled accounts with him for what happened before, and now he's acting up again."

"Emperor Taizong Wen misjudged people!"

"Han Qing's actions have once again put him in the eye of the storm. I find the political situation in the court increasingly unfathomable."

"What were you thinking? Why did Han Qing do this...?"

Because of Han Qing's petition, various discussions arose in the court. The censors in various positions stood in place like statues, seemingly blind and deaf.

However, this move has also attracted the attention of some people.

Something's not right!

None of the censors under the Censorate were easy to get along with. If they heard even the slightest disturbance, they would pounce on them like hungry wolves.

But now it's like this.

wrong! !

This is not right! !

Some astute individuals, upon considering these matters, glanced out of the corner of their eyes towards a certain spot, their gaze fixed on none other than Bao Yuan, the Imperial Censor of the Great Yu Dynasty!

This person entered officialdom in the late reign of Emperor Taizu, made a name for himself during the reign of Emperor Taizong, and served as Imperial Censor during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong. In less than a year, no fewer than a hundred officials were impeached and dismissed through his hands!

It was precisely because of this person in the Censorate that Emperor Xuanzong Chun was able to control the court much more smoothly than expected. While righteousness may be an abstract concept, having righteousness in one's grasp is completely different from not having it.

"barge!"

In this situation, Sun Li's voice rang out, silencing the chaotic court. Upon hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Han Qing frowned slightly.

It seems his plan has failed.

He can't leave this dangerous place for the time being.

Therefore, we need to think of other solutions.

Empress Dowager Cixi's strong leadership began to change the minds of some people in the court. This first grand court session of the Zhengtong Dynasty appeared chaotic, but in reality, the probing and confrontation behind the scenes never stopped.

Each and every one of them is extraordinary.

After hearing Sun Li's rejection, and especially seeing the commotion in the court, Chu Ling felt even more strongly that everyone in the central government of the Great Yu Dynasty was not as simple as they seemed.

Although he was very anxious, he dared not make any rash moves at the moment.

Forewarned is forearmed, without prejudging the waste.

This statement is not without merit.

Chu Ling knew that he had to be patient and wait for the opportunity he was looking forward to to arrive, so that he could first gain his freedom and then plan something else.

However, he couldn't predict exactly how long this would take.

"That's why the grand court convened ahead of schedule."

It was only after thinking about this that Chu Ling realized why the first grand court assembly of the Zhengtong Dynasty was held ahead of schedule without his knowledge. Empress Dowager Cisheng Duanyou Kangshou wanted to gain more say, and this say was not achieved through the infighting among the people below, but rather by her personally stepping in to compete with the other two.

But why would she do that?

Chu Ling couldn't quite understand Sun Li's purpose in doing this. If this incident caused those two to secretly join forces, it would be a one-on-two situation.

Yes.

While the Sun family is indeed very powerful and has many friends, the maternal clans of the other two are equally powerful, and more importantly, they have also made many connections in private.

Once such an interest group is formed, it will not collapse easily. Anyone who dares to betray it, no matter who they are, will inevitably cut themselves off from the world.

Unless the profit is large enough.

Therefore, it seems that in the coming years, the Great Yu Dynasty will gradually move towards a state of internal strife. Unless the pattern of three empresses ruling as regents is broken and power is concentrated in one person, this trend is irreversible.

While a triangle can be stable, it depends on the time and place. In the struggle for supreme power, the triangle can indeed restrain and check each other, but over time, once this situation becomes stable, many disputes will arise.

The separation of powers is a good thing, but those are different powers with different responsibilities.

Chu Ling pondered in his heart.

The grand court continues.

"Your subject has a memorial to present..."

"Your subject has a memorial to present..."

With Han Qing's appearance, more people began to emerge from the court. The matters they petitioned concerned either politics or the military. It was through these petitions that Chu Ling gained a deeper understanding of the dynamics of the Great Yu Dynasty.

The passing of Emperor Xuanzong Chun disrupted many things, but life in Da Yu must go on. After a brief period of grief, everyone in Da Yu must adjust their mindset.

Especially at the central level.

If the death of Emperor Xuanzong Chun leads to a desperate and reckless stance, the foundation of the Great Yu's rule will inevitably be shaken.

'This is probably one of the reasons why the grand court session was convened ahead of schedule, isn't it?'

As one minister after another stepped forward, receiving either approval or rejection from Sun Li or Xu Zhen, Wang Xiu, though speaking little, did step forward at crucial moments.

While learning about the situation in Dayu, Chu Ling also began to further speculate on the three empresses, especially his grandmother, Sun Li. He suspected that she was doing this because she wanted to restore the central government of Dayu to normal as soon as possible.

However, Chu Ling couldn't guess this either.

Chu Ling doesn't have mind-reading abilities; he's just an eight-year-old new ruler. He does have a strong memory, but the current situation in the Great Yu is clearly not his time to shine.

Time passes minute by minute.

The snow gradually stopped.

As the grand court ceremony continued, Chu Ling keenly noticed that the atmosphere surrounding the event was subtly changing.

The central leadership of the Great Yu Dynasty seems to have adapted to the new structure of three empresses and one emperor.

This was much faster than Chu Ling had anticipated.

"...The matter of repairing the imperial mausoleum must be dealt with as soon as possible. This matter should be handed over to the Secretariat for supervision, with the relevant departments cooperating." Regarding the memorial submitted by one person, Xu Zhen unusually spoke his mind before Sun Li could.

"Emperor Xuanzong's coffin is in the Shouhuang Hall, and it shouldn't stay there too long. The relevant officials are not allowed to delay in providing the necessary funds. If anyone dares to shirk their responsibilities in this matter, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Xu Zhen's attitude was very firm.

However, this move has attracted the attention of some people.

Liang Huang, who was standing beside the Empress Dowager, frowned slightly upon hearing her words, but quickly recovered. However, he kept glancing at Xu Zhen out of the corner of his eye.

Although Xu Zhen's behavior was normal for a son, Liang Huang felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. He hesitated about whether to wait until the grand court session was over before telling the Empress Dowager his thoughts. After all, he had been secretly investigating the matter but hadn't come up with any ideas.
