Chapter 1665 Behind the Scenes

In the next few days, Shi Xuanji came to the emperor's palace every day, pretending to be a good wife who cared about her husband in front of outsiders.

On this day, not long after Zhao Mu accompanied Shi Xuanji to the emperor's palace, a large number of courtiers came outside the palace asking to see him.

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "Madam, they are finally here."

"Sooner or later."

Shi Xuanji sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the sacred tree Longchang with her eyes closed, and said with a smile: "Si Shang Palace, since you have already arrived, why don't you invite everyone in quickly so that your majesty can listen to your thoughts? say what?"

Zhao Mu understood: "Yes, empress."

He turned around and went out. When he came back, he saw Shi Xuanji sobbing beside the bed.

Is this happening?

Zhao Mu secretly smiled in his heart, turned around and said to the ministers who followed him: "My lords, my wife has been very sad because of your majesty's affairs these days, and her body is very weak, so if you have anything to say, please keep it short."

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is so affectionate and loyal!"

"Yes, our Holy Tree Fairy Kingdom is really lucky to have such a queen who values ​​love and justice."

"With your empress's character, she is the perfect person to supervise the country in place of the crown prince."

The ministers were talking a lot.

And these words were heard word for word by the holy tree Longchang on the bed.

Deep love and justice?

Which of your eyes can see how deeply this woman loves me?

A bunch of idiots, you should be thinking about how to save me now, instead of complimenting this woman!

The holy tree Longchang roared in his heart.

But unfortunately, no one present could hear his roar.

At this time, Shi Xuanji wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "My lords, you are here together today, but the matter of the previous dynasty has been decided and the four auxiliary ministers have been selected?"

Prime Minister Situ Wenzhong stepped forward and said: "To report back to the Queen, the candidate for the assistant minister has been selected, so I came here today to ask for the Queen's approval."

Shi Xuanji shook her head: "I am just a womanizer and do not understand the government affairs of the previous dynasty. Therefore, if you have made a decision, you can just make it directly. There is no need to come to me."

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong."

Kangwang Shengshu Longyu said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still young after all. Although his status is enough to supervise the country, he is not yet able to handle the government affairs personally."

"So today, when I come here, in addition to reporting to the empress for approval of the candidate for the assistant minister, I have another thing to do."

"I would like to ask the empress to listen to the affairs behind the curtain and assist His Royal Highness in handling the affairs of the government, so that the government and the public of our Holy Tree Immortal Kingdom can return to the right track."

"Listening to politics behind the curtain?"

Shi Xuanji looked very surprised: "My lords, are you kidding me? Although I am the queen, I never paid attention to the affairs of the previous dynasty."

"You suddenly allow me to listen to politics from behind the curtain. I really don't know what to do."

"The affairs of the court concern all the people of the world. It is probably not a good thing for a person like me who does not understand government affairs to interfere."

The ministers looked at each other in shock.

Before they came here today, what they were thinking about was how the other party would seize power from them once the queen was allowed to govern behind the curtain.

After all, no one in this world doesn't like power.

But they never expected that the first reaction of the person in front of them was to refuse to listen to politics behind the curtain?

Is this woman really willing to stay in the harem and be a canary all her life?

This is not okay.

Let the queen listen to politics behind the curtain and cooperate with the prince to be a puppet in the court. But they have already discussed something, how can this woman refuse?

The prime minister said again: "Your Majesty, the country cannot be left without a master for a day. The court needs someone who is qualified to rule all parties and make decisions on major matters."

"And looking at the current situation inside and outside the court, you are the only one who has the qualifications to convince all parties."

"Empress, for the sake of all the people in the world, please do your part and take charge of the overall situation."

"Otherwise, allowing the chaos in the court to continue will definitely not be a blessing to the people."

"Yes, my dear!"

The burly general Qin Mu also said: "My dear, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to handle government affairs. You can learn these things slowly."

"Besides, all of you ministers are loyal to Your Majesty, so you will naturally help your Majesty handle the government affairs wholeheartedly."

"So please don't refuse me again."

What does this mean?

Does it mean that as a queen, you just need to sit in the court and be a clay Bodhisattva, and there is no need to get involved in power or anything like that?

This is quite straightforward.

It seems that these ministers really don't pay much attention to the queen Shi Xuanji.

But this is for the best.

Despise leads to carelessness!

No?

"Why……"

Shi Xuanji sighed: "Since all of you have said so, I will be in trouble if I refuse again."

"Then starting from tomorrow, I will go to court with the prince to listen to your lords' discussions."

"Of course, as I said before, I don't know how to deal with government affairs, so how to solve all aspects of government affairs at that time will have to rely on you adults."

"I am terrified!" The ministers saluted.

As for whether they are really scared, only they themselves know.

Shi Xuanji waved her hand: "Okay, gentlemen, since the matter has been decided, you can go back first. I will stay here with Your Majesty for a while."

"Yes, concubine!"

The ministers accepted the promise and turned around and retreated.

When leaving the palace, many ministers could not help but glance at Sheng Shulongchang on the bed, their eyes were meaningful.

That look seemed to say that Sheng Shulongchang had better never wake up.

The power of the monarch and the power of the ministers have always been rising and falling. Sheng Shulongchang was ambitious before, and he obviously planned to be a great ruler.

The result is that power will continue to concentrate on Sheng Shulongchang, and the ministers can only tremble under his majesty.

But now, Sheng Shulongchang has fallen into a coma, and it is not known when he will wake up.

In this way, the power of the monarch is greatly weakened, and the power of the ministers will naturally rise.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for these ministers.

Seeing the ministers leave, the palace returned to silence.

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "My queen, everything is going according to your plan. Now you are just ruling from behind the scenes. I believe it won't be long before you can really take control of the real power."

"It's still too early. Those old guys won't give up power easily. There's a fight about this."

Shi Xuanji said calmly, "But you are right. I have taken the first step. If nothing unexpected happens, I will eventually become the one who truly holds the power in this Holy Tree Fairyland."

She looked at Shengshu Longchang, "Your Majesty, are you also looking forward to the day when I take power?"

"Well, I will take it as your expectation."

"Don't worry, I won't let you die too soon. I will definitely let you live to see the day when I take power."

"I think that will make you live a life worse than death, right?"

"Hehehe..."
