"Your Highness, the Empress Dowager invites you to the Eternal Peace Palace!”
Gu Fengming had just sent Yu Qian off and was arranging for people to decorate the mourning hall. At this moment, a person suddenly appeared in front of Gu Fengming and smiled at him.
"Wei Zhongxian?"
Gu Fengming recognized him at a glance. It was Wei Zhongxian, the supervisor of the East Chamber.
In the history before Gu Fengming transmigrated, Wei Zhongxian had a great background. He was known to be nine thousand years old and was the number one eunuch in the Ming Xi Sect.
Throughout Wei Zhongxian's life, he did not do many good things, but he did a lot of bad things. He deceived his superiors and his subordinates. He could be said to be standing on the emperor's side. He was really an existence that was below one person and above ten thousand people.
In this world, Wei Zhongxian was no good either. He was a trusted eunuch of Empress Dowager Lu Zhi. With the help of Empress Lu, he was in charge of the East Chamber. He could be said to be a figure who could control the sky with one hand in the Inner Palace.
It could be said that in the rear palace, other than Lu Zhi and Yu Qinghe, who did not have to pay attention to his expression, even the empresses and concubines did not dare to easily offend this chief eunuch.
"I wonder what Lu Zhi is up to when he looks for me. This witch really won't give up so easily.”
Gu Fengming's heart trembled, but he did not refuse. He wanted to take a look at that Lu Zhi and see what else he wanted to do.
Yongning Palace, Empress Dowager's bedroom.
Gu Fengming followed Wei Zhongxian to Eternal Peace Palace. Lu Zhi was already waiting for him.
"Your son greets mother!"
As the empress dowager, she was the legitimate mother. Although the two of them were not related by blood, Gu Fengming still had to treat Lu Zhi as his mother. The proper etiquette could not be abandoned, and Gu Fengming would not give others a chance to talk about it. After all, Lu Zhi was looking for an opportunity to kill him, and Gu Fengming could not give him this opportunity.
"Imperial son, there's no need to be so formal.”
Unlike the tense relationship in Gu Longming's bedroom, this time, when Lu Zhi saw Gu Fengming appear, he actually revealed a friendly smile and looked at Gu Fengming.
In a short while, a few palace maids brought a chair over for Gu Fengming to sit on.
When Gu Fengming saw this, he raised his eyebrows and did not refuse. However, he became more and more cautious. This old witch's attitude definitely did not have any good intentions.
"May I know why the Empress Dowager has called for this subject?”
Gu Fengming was very busy now and did not have the time to waste on Lu Zhi. He immediately went straight to the point.
Seeing Gu Fengming directly ask a question, Lu Zhi was slightly stunned. However, she didn't intend to waste any time on Gu Fengming. She gave Wei Zhongxian a look, and he immediately understood and chased everyone away.
Soon, only Gu Fengming, Wei Zhongxian, and Lu Zhi were left in the bedroom.
Seeing Lu Zhi do this, Gu Fengming was even more certain that this old witch invited him over for some unspeakable matter.
"Fengming, mother invited you here for nothing but to give you a white hat. I wonder if my son has the courage to accept it?”
Lu Zhi looked at Gu Fengming and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Gu Fengming did not immediately frown when he heard that!
White hat!
Gu Fengming was a prince, and a white hat on the head of the prince meant that he was the emperor. Did Lu Zhi mean to push him to the throne?
"Lu Zhi, you're good. You've set your sights on me. You're really scheming well. If you push me to the throne, you'll still be the Empress Dowager. Moreover, you can use my young name as a legitimate reason to listen to the government behind the curtain.”
"My son, water flows to a higher place. Now that you're already a prince, you can't go any higher. Your royal brother left, leaving behind a five-year-old nephew. What does a five-year-old child know? Can he manage the affairs of the country? There was also that Empress Yu Qinghe, who was just a lowlife woman. Both mother and son were not presentable.”
"But you're different. You're the youngest son of the late emperor, and your mother is the imperial concubine. Your bloodline is noble, and it is ten thousand times more suitable for you to sit on the throne than for Gu Changge.”
"My son, as long as you are willing, mother is willing to lend you a hand and let you ascend to the throne. From now on, you are the Emperor of the Great Phoenix Dynasty.”
Lu Zhi returned to his palace and was furious at first. However, Wei Zhongxian's words reminded her that since they were all going to push the prince to the throne, why not choose the young Gu Fengming?
This way, Gu Fengming would not be able to resist the temptation of the throne and would not go against her. She could still be the empress dowager and could also use this to control the government. This was a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.
After Lu Zhi calmed down, he immediately looked for Gu Fengming. He wanted to use the throne as an exchange to make Gu Fengming stand on his side.
"Mother, my father has more than ten sons, and there are still ten of them alive. Be it in terms of qualifications or other aspects, my royal brothers are more suitable to be the emperor than me. Why don't you choose them?”
Gu Fengming laughed coldly as he looked at Lu Zhi and asked.
"Of the previous emperor's sons, none of them could enter this widow's eyes other than your royal brother and you. Moreover, you are a child that this widow watched grow up. This widow also knows your intelligence and wisdom, otherwise your royal brother would not have entrusted you.”
"With the current situation, if your Imperial Brother's child ascends to the throne, this Great Feng Dynasty will definitely be in chaos. As for you, although you are young, your knowledge is far beyond ordinary people. This widow thinks highly of you.”
Lu Zhi chuckled and said to Gu Fengming.
"Hmph, that's too much!"
"However, I'm afraid that the reason isn't what you've said.”
"The reason why you want to push me to the throne is firstly because I am the only child of the late emperor who is still in the capital. You can quickly cut the Gordian knot and help me to the throne to stabilize the situation. When the time comes, what's done is done. "Secondly, I'm young and have a house of foundation. I don't have any power, so I'm very easy to control. At that time, you can use my young age as an excuse to come out and listen to politics. At that time, I'm afraid I'll become your puppet toy.”
"Mother, your plan is not bad!”
Gu Fengming chuckled as he looked at Lu Zhi Dao and spoke out his thoughts one by one.
When Lu Zhi heard this, his expression immediately darkened. He looked at Gu Fengming. He did not expect that although Gu Fengming was young, he was not easy to fool at all.
"Hmph, Gu Fengming, you are indeed very smart. Now I understand why your royal brother entrusted the world's affairs to you.”
"Unfortunately, if your royal brother could live a few more years and let you become an adult, I'm afraid you would really be able to assist Gu Changge. But you're still too young, child!”
Lu Zhi said coldly. He no longer pretended to be kind and stared at Gu Fengming.
