Chapter 2494 Hou Zhong's Ambition

Everyone nodded.

Now, the most important thing for them is to let other ministers accept Zhao Qi's ascension. Only with the support of everyone can Zhao Qi sit on the throne smoothly.

"This matter still needs to trouble the ministers." Wu Fan said to everyone: "Now that the throne is vacant, some people with ulterior motives will definitely make trouble around the throne, and some people will even stand up to compete for the throne. We must control the overall situation before they do and completely settle this matter!"

Everyone nodded.

Zhao Lun's death is indeed an opportunity for them, but it will also give birth to some people with ulterior motives. After all, the temptation of the throne is huge. Although Zhao Qi is not interested in the throne, others may not be so.

"Don't worry, Lord Wu, we will do this immediately." Guan Zhuo said: "However, Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess..."

They can persuade other ministers. After all, compared with Wu Fan, they are more familiar with those ministers.

But they have no way to deal with Zhao Qi. They can't force Zhao Qi to be the emperor, right? In Guan Zhuo's opinion, the only person who can persuade Zhao Qi is Wu Fan.

Wu Fan smiled and said, "Her Highness the Seventh Princess has already nodded, so you can go ahead and do it."

"Great!" Qi Kai smiled and said, "In this way, we can really go ahead and do it."

Others also showed joy on their faces. For them, Zhao Qi's side was the most difficult, and now Wu Fan had obviously helped them solve this problem. Now that Zhao Qi has agreed to be the emperor, other things will be much easier to handle.

Guan Zhuo was also very excited about this. After discussing it, everyone left and acted separately.

The news of Zhao Lun's death was still spreading in the imperial capital. Wu Fan believed that this news would soon spread throughout the Yanfeng Kingdom and even to other countries. After all, this was not a trivial matter, and this matter would also have a lot of impact.

First of all, the rebel forces whose morale had been hit before might be revived by this news.

In addition, some members of the royal family will also have ideas about the throne. Although Zhao Qi's people have asked Hou Yi to kill some people who are qualified to inherit the throne, it is obvious that he did not kill them all. Although the remaining ones are not very capable, who makes them qualified to inherit the throne? Moreover, others think that they are incapable, but they themselves may not think so.

Therefore, Zhao Qi is definitely not the only one who wants to compete for the throne.

Of course, Zhao Qi has an advantage in this matter now, because Zhao Qi has the support of Wu Fan, Guan Zhuo and Qi Kai. Some of these people control the army, some have extensive connections in the court, and some have great influence, etc.

In addition, the killing of Zhao Lun will further stimulate people from several other countries, and will make them more eager to move against Yanfeng Country.

In short, Zhao Lun's sudden death will cause a series of reactions, and what Wu Fan has to do is to get the biggest benefit from it.

At noon, Zhao Lun's body was sent back to the imperial capital. The streets were full of people watching the excitement, but there was not much sadness on their faces, and many people even secretly showed joy.

It can be seen from here that Zhao Lun was not popular at all. The people did not care about his death. Many people even wished that he would die sooner. In their opinion, Zhao Lun was the shame of their Yanfeng country and was not worthy of being the emperor of their Yanfeng country.

Hou Zhong rode on a horse and walked at the front of the team. His face was obviously sad, as if he was very sad about Zhao Lun's death.

However, Hou Zhong's heart was not sad at all, and he did not care about Zhao Lun's death at all. What he was thinking about now was what he should do next.

Although Zhao Lun has not been the emperor for a long time, it is of great significance to Hou Zhong, because he has officially stepped out of the shadows and has become one of the six ministers of Yanfeng Country. Although this position was not long ago conferred by Zhao Lun, and even many people do not know it, it does not affect the improvement of Hou Zhong's status at all.

He is now the Minister of War!

And in troubled times, who has the most say?

Is it the Minister of Personnel?

No, the one with the most say is the Minister of War!

Because the Minister of War holds the military power, especially in the absence of an emperor, the Minister of War who can command the army is the "emperor" in the actual sense!

Therefore, Hou Zhong is not ready to live in disgrace this time, he wants to dominate the court!

"Who should I support?" Hou Zhong thought as he walked.

In Hou Zhong's view, he has the military power in his hands, so he is naturally the one with the most say in the court, and he can completely control the entire court. In this way, he can support anyone he wants to be the emperor.

Of course, Hou Zhong is still considering this candidate, but what is certain is that he will not support a person with outstanding ability. He wants mediocrity and young age, so that he can control the new emperor and achieve his goal of controlling the entire Yanfeng Kingdom.

Obviously, Hou Zhong is no longer satisfied with the status quo. Of course, in fact, he has never been a person who is content with the status quo, otherwise, he would not have killed Zhao Lun.

When the transport team arrived at the gate of the palace, all the officials had gathered here. No matter what they thought of Zhao Lun, Zhao Lun was the emperor of their Yanfeng country after all. Now that he was dead and his body was transported back, they could not help but come to greet him.

Hou Zhong rode on his horse and looked down at these people, without any intention of getting off the horse.

"Hou Zhong, how did His Majesty die?!" Suddenly, an official in the crowd asked Hou Zhong: "Aren't you protecting His Majesty? Why did His Majesty have an accident?"

The surroundings were very quiet. Obviously, everyone was waiting for Hou Zhong's answer.

From the official's question, it can be seen that he did not trust Hou Zhong, and did not believe the news Hou Zhong had sent back before. New Biquge

"Your Majesty was assassinated by the rebels." Hou Zhong said calmly: "I failed to protect Your Majesty, but you are not qualified to question me. Don't forget, I am now the Minister of War!"

At this time, Hou Zhong no longer concealed himself and showed his edge directly. He wanted to let the ministers in the court know that he was no longer the Hou Zhong before. Now he was in a high position and had a lot of troops. He was an important figure who could influence the situation in the court!
