Princess Medical Doctor

Xiao Tianyao was still branded as a criminal at the moment. Normally, he should stay in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, or his mansion, but… …

Who dares to detain Prince Xiao?

According to Prince Xiao's current power, so what if he was branded as a criminal, who dares to say no if he wants to be regent?

However, Xiao Tianyao would never rush to the capital bluntly and tell all civil and military officials that he wants to be regent. This was too ugly.

Xiao Tianyao was not in a hurry to return to the capital, but asked his subordinates to stir up conflicts between the Eldest Prince's lineage and Imperial Concubine Zhou's lineage, and then forced the Empress who was hiding behind others to come forward. This will not only allow the Eldest Prince to join forces with Imperial Concubine Zhou to seize power but also to join forces to deal with the Empress.

In the court hall, there was already a mess because of the crown prince’s affairs, but now Prince Wen, Prince An, and the Empress were fighting again, so the court hall was in chaos, and government affairs cannot be carried out at all. No matter what, as long as one party agrees, the other party will disagree. Opposing without reason, without asking right or wrong, just oppose for the sake of opposition.

In just a few days, the ministers in the court could not hold on, and the local officials were about to cry. There was a disturbance in the local area, but there was no movement at all even when the report was sent to the higher. There was a riot in the local area, but there was no response to the request for assistance.

The entire court of the Eastern Country seems to have come to a standstill, unable to function at all. There was a mountain of official affairs piled up, but no one approved at all.

"Continuing like this is not an option. If the chaos continues like this, our country will collapse." The civil and military ministers were all exhausted. Facing the three-party struggle between Prince Wen, Prince An, and the Empress, the ministers were miserable.

"Go ask Prince Xiao to come back and preside over the overall situation. Only Prince Xiao can suppress these things." Prince Xiao's confidant suggested the right time.

As soon as this remark was made, the ministers who had been arguing just now fell silent. They all looked at each other, and none of them dared to speak.

It took a long time for someone to raise objections, but the aristocratic family headed by Prime Minister You voiced their support for Prince Xiao to be a regent at this time. The voice of opposition could not cause a storm at all, and soon the courtiers decided to invite Prince Xiao to come back as regent.

Because the Empress doesn't have the right to participate in politics, the courtiers did not tell the Empress when discussing the matter. The Empress didn't know about it until the matter was settled and immediately threw a set of porcelain cups in her hand.

"Mother…" The Seventh Prince called worriedly, the Empress shook her head and said firmly: "Mother is fine, Zimo, what belongs to you is yours, and no one can take it away. Mother will not allow him to take away what belongs to you."

"Mother, we are not the opponents of Imperial Uncle Xiao. If he intends to take the throne, none of us are his opponents." The Seventh Prince knows that his mother has a lot of power in her hands, but his mother has no supporters in the court.

Her mother was not from the Eastern Country. Although her background was extraordinary, she has no relatives to help her, and no one will speak for them in court.

"It's not like your father has no heirs, so it's not his turn to succeed to the throne." The Empress didn't know Xiao Tianyao's intentions but vaguely realized that Xiao Wang's intentions were not on the throne.

"Mother, the crown prince has already been abolished. It is not difficult for Imperial Uncle Xiao to abolish us. The country's military power and political power are in his hands. It doesn't matter who is the emperor to Imperial Uncle Xiao." As long as he doesn't inherit the throne, Prince Xiao wouldn't care.

The Empress was silent and then said: "These are matters for adults, Zimo, don't think about them. Mother will arrange everything."

"I understand, Mother." The Seventh Prince's face was tense but also very serious.

After the discussion was completed, the ministers pushed two representatives, one civil and one military, to go outside the city to see Prince Xiao, and asked Prince Xiao to come back and preside over the overall situation.

However, Xiao Tianyao refused, no matter what the two ministers said, Prince Xiao refused to nod, and the two ministers had to return without success.

But the two ministers didn't give up and came again the next day. Xiao Tianyao didn't even meet them this time and directly refused.

On the third day, Prince Wen and Prince An came in person and asked Prince Xiao to return to the capital to preside over the overall situation. Prince Xiao met with his two nephews but rejected their request again and refused to return.

With one refusal, two refusals, and three refusals, Prince Xiao's reputation of benevolence and righteousness spread all over the world. On the fourth day, all civil and military officials discussed and decided to go out of the city collectively, asking Prince Xiao to return to preside over the overall situation.

Nearly a hundred officials rushed for a day and a night. At noon on the sixth day, all civil and military officials knelt outside the Jinwuwei Army Camp and asked Prince Xiao to return to preside over the overall situation.

Prince Xiao came out to persuade all the ministers to get up and return to the capital early, but none of them get up: "If Xiao Wangye doesn't return to preside over the overall situation, we will kneel for a long time."

"The emperor will wake up soon, Xiao Wangye will only need to work hard for a few days, and everything will be fine when the emperor wakes up." Even if the ministers came to invite him, Prince Xiao still did not agree.

This was a matter of style. If Prince Xiao returns to Beijing eagerly to preside over the overall situation, people in the world will only say that he was eager to seize power. Because of his current power, no one dares to say anything in person, but there will always be people who refuse to accept it, which will also be a hidden danger in the future.

Now, all the ministers begged again and again, and Xiao Wang refused again and again, which fully demonstrated Prince Xiao's noble character of not being greedy for power. Even if Prince Xiao finally returns to be a regent, it was only for the sake of the overall situation, not to satisfy his selfish desires.

"Wangye's move is wonderful." Although Lin Chujiu didn't go out, she was clear about what happened outside. Of course, she didn't deliberately inquire about it, but Xiao Tianyao took the initiative to tell her.

During this time, Xiao Tianyao was very busy, leaving early and returning late every day. But every night he would come back to accompany Lin Chujiu to have dinner, and then talk to Lin Chujiu.

Most of the time, it was Xiao Tianyao who spoke, while Lin Chujiu only listened. Sometimes it was important secrets, and sometimes it was just some small things that happened to the Jinwuwei Army.

In the beginning, Lin Chujiu was scared.

Can you imagine Prince Xiao holding a cup of tea and gossiping with others?

Whether other people can or not, Lin Chujiu can't imagine it anyway. Even when this scene has happened, Lin Chujiu still can't accept it and was always shocked.

Even if the number of times was too high, Lin Chujiu was not used to it. Even if Xiao Tianyao talked about business or some trivial things, no matter how many times Lin Chujiu felt horrified.

It was not that Lin Chujiu thinks too much, it was just Xiao Tianyao's painting style was wrong. How can Prince Xiao look like someone who likes to chat about family affairs and gossip?

The fact that Prince Xiao wanted to return to the capital to serve as a regent was told to Lin Chujiu during his routine after-dinner chat. When Lin Chujiu heard about Prince Xiao's plan, she wanted to say… he was insidious.

However, Lin Chujiu doesn't think Xiao Tianyao's methods were so superb. After all, there were many cases like this in history, right?

However, when Xiao Tianyao told her about the progress of the matter every day, Lin Chujiu realized that it was not easy to implement what she thought was an unsophisticated method.

Why let the courtiers invite him again and again?

Why let the courtiers go according to his arrangement?

Isn't it enough to rely on the military power in hand?

When Lin Chujiu first heard Xiao Tianyao's plan, that was what Lin Chujiu thought. In her opinion, wasn't Xiao Tianyao's arrogance due to his military power?

But after Xiao Tianyao implemented his plan step by step, Lin Chujiu realized that using military power to force the courtiers to surrender was different from making the courtiers willingly invite him to return to the court.

Xiao Tianyao walked step by step. Although he used his military power to frighten everyone, he never threatened others with his military power. He was always scheming, scheming people's hearts, making the courtiers and even Prince Wen and Prince An come and ask him to return to preside over the overall situation.

Because, apart from him, there was no other person who can stabilize the overall situation and hold power at this time!
