Chapter 2226: Too much

bump!

In the Zhou Mansion, a fine teacup was thrown to the ground by Zhou Yanfeng. Broken porcelain pieces were scattered all over the floor. The servants passing by outside the living room did not dare to speak out when they heard the sound. They were deeply afraid. It will set you on fire.

At this time, Zhou Yanfeng was indeed filled with anger, and his whole body was like a furious lion.

"Old...Master..." At this time, a servant walked in tremblingly.

"What's the matter? Tell me!" Zhou Yanfeng's tone was extremely cold.

"Li Shangshu and Qi Shangshu are here." The servant said quickly.

"Bring them in." Zhou Yanfeng said.

"Yes, sir."

Soon, Li Yang and Qi Kai appeared in Zhou Yanfeng's field of vision. Like Zhou Yanfeng, the faces of these two people were also quite ugly.

Li Yang and Qi Kai came to the living room, saw Zhou Yanfeng's face, and then looked at the debris on the ground, they already understood something in their hearts.

"It seems that Zhou Shangshu also knows?" Li Yang said with a sullen face.

"Hmph! They have already sent the invitation to my house, how can I not know about it?!" Zhou Yanfeng sneered.

His sneer was naturally not directed at Li Yang, and Li Yang naturally knew this, because his current mood was the same as Zhou Yanfeng's.

"I also received the invitation." Qi Kai said: "It seems that our Second Highness is preparing to hold a banquet for the ministers."

Yes, the bad mood of the three people all came from Zhao Ke.

Not long ago, all three of them received messages:

Guanzhuo has released Zhao Ke and directly announced to the outside world that Zhao Ke was not the murderer of the late emperor.

This statement is very powerful. It basically restores Zhao Ke's innocence. After all, Guanzhuo's image in the minds of officials is still good. Moreover, Guanzhuo has always been responsible for investigating the poisoning of the late emperor. Now , he issued such a statement to the outside world, which is obviously very weighty.

Compared to the shock of the other officials, Zhou Yanfeng and the other three were furious.

Because, not long ago, they had just stopped Guan Zhuo and Yuan Ji's plan to release Zhao Ke, and they even played tricks on Yuan Ji and Hou Yi for this. However, before the three of them were happy for a long time, Guan Zhuo Announcing this matter to the public made the three of them feel as uncomfortable as eating flies.

Originally, the three of them had some doubts about the authenticity of this matter. After all, they had just separated from Guanzhuo not long ago. In the previous meeting, Guanzhuo did not show any intention to release Zhao Ke.

But before the three of them went to Guan Zhuo to verify the matter, they received invitations from Zhao Ke one after another. At this point, the three of them no longer had any doubts about this matter.

"Guan Zhuo has gone too far!" Li Yang said angrily: "The decision not to allow the release of His Highness the Second Highness was a decision made by the seven of us after we jointly expressed our stance. How could he act so wantonly and ignore the wishes of all of us? Opinion?"

"To be honest, I really didn't expect that he would do such a thing." Qi Kai was angry, but also sighed: "The impression Guan Shangshu gave me is not that he likes to do random things. In fact, I can’t figure out why he would do such a thing not long after we made our decision.”

"Unexpected? Huh! I can only say that he hid it well before." Zhou Yanfeng sneered: "I think he has always been like this, it's just that no one noticed it before!"

It can be said that this incident has greatly changed the impression of Zhou Yanfeng and Guan Zhuo on Guan Zhuo. Especially Zhou Yanfeng and Li Yang, both of them hate Guan Zhuo extremely. Guan Zhuo released Zhao Ke so suddenly, which really hit them. Caught off guard, they obviously did not expect that Guan Zhuo would make such a decision.

Zhou Yanfeng and Li Yang couldn't wait to go to Guanzhuo now to argue or even denounce him.

But the two of them knew that there were more important things now:

That is the second prince!

Once the second prince comes out, it will be very difficult to let him in. No matter how he comes out, as long as he comes out, he will not be locked in so easily, especially since Guan Zhuo personally made the statement to the public. It is stated that under this situation, it is basically impossible to detain Zhao Ke again.

It is impossible for Zhao Ke to be imprisoned again, which is definitely not a good thing for Zhou Yanfeng and the others, because they have their own plans, and Zhao Ke's sudden release from prison will obviously destroy their previous plans. This is also their reason. Very angry cause.

You know, they have pinned their hopes for the rest of their lives on this matter. They cannot afford to lose. Once they lose, what they lose may not be as simple as official positions and rights, but may even be their lives!

"What should we do now?" Li Yang said: "Before the second prince came out, Yuan Ji and Hou Yi were quite active. Now that the second prince comes out, it has added a lot of confidence to them. I am afraid that these two people will He is even more active, and the second prince is also the one closest to the throne. With the activities of Yuan Ji and Hou Yi, I am afraid that the throne will have a new owner. "

As he spoke, Li Yang's face was full of worry.

They have rejected the goodwill released by Yuan Ji and Hou Yi, and even played tricks on each other. It would be fine if they had an advantage. But as for the problem, they do not have any advantage now, and Yuan Ji and Hou Yi obviously will not take it seriously. Nothing has happened before. Once the second prince really ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, then he, as the Minister of War, will be done with it.

Li Yang even vaguely regretted his previous decision in his heart now. He should not have done things too badly. Now that it is better, they have basically no escape route. He even feels that the future is a bit bleak.

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy for the second prince to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor!" Zhou Yanfeng sneered: "Although he has come out, it does not mean that he can successfully ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Now, in this court, there is the eldest prince People, people with the third prince, and us! Yuan Ji and Hou Yi are not bad, but it is not easy to support the second prince to ascend the throne under such circumstances. You know, when the late emperor was still there, for The second prince is not a favorite, how could he break out and take the throne just because the late emperor summoned him alone before his death? "

When Zhou Yanfeng spoke, his tone was a bit sinister, but if he thought about it carefully, what he said was also true.

Zhao Ke has some advantages in vying for the throne, but these advantages are not enough to ensure that he can successfully ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Nowadays, the situation in the court of Yanfeng Kingdom is very complicated, with various forces involved, and everyone can Without the strength to stabilize the opponent, Zhao Lun couldn't do it, and Zhao Ke couldn't do it either!
