This was not the first time that Liu Yu attended the dynasty meeting. In fact, the scale of the sacrifice to the sky at Ci'en Temple was larger than this time. After all, the vassal kings and their subordinates were still in the capital at that time. The biggest difference between this dynasty meeting was that everything was unknown to him.

If Su Zhe died before he was in the capital, then the old emperor might not dare to pass on the throne from the throne before he died. Who to pass it to, how to pass it, how to ensure that the situation in Chang'an can be quickly stabilized after passing it to, are all quite a big problem before he died. What is most afraid of is that the old emperor died before he had time to pass it to the throne. Then the question of the heir to the throne is likely to lead to a chaotic battle from the court, and Concubine Li and Mrs. Yi in the palace will be the first to bear the brunt. In addition, the subordinates of the princes and princesses are completely open to the battle. The final result is either the court collapses or the fisherman of the King of Huai.

Liu Yu now has no position in commanding the overall situation, and no connections, so he can't help anyone who doesn't help him.

At the second day of the court meeting, Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu were both going to attend, and Xu Caihua followed behind him. This is a "general family", a very strange combination. Although there are no soldiers around Liu Yu, the daughter's army has more than 10,000 new troops outside the city, which may be the power of the left and right court bureaus. As soon as he entered the main palace gate, he saw the figure of the fourth princess Su Bi and Chai Jin. When he met him head-on, he had to say hello.

"General Liu, you really can!"

Even a complimentary word sounds unpleasant, mainly because her tone is too harsh, which is clearly a pleasure to enjoy you.

Liu Yu smiled embarrassedly, Su Bi had nothing to say. Chai Jin wanted to say something, but Su Bi pulled her. Chai Jin could only play with her husband. She didn't even have the chance to get along with Liu Yu.

Liu Yu paid special attention to the issue of guarding the palace, and it seemed that it had not been strengthened. If the old emperor Bintian was really the one who took the initiative, he would first strengthen the guards of the palace to the extreme, and then declare his succession in public with thunder. In the end, it depends on who is the strong method.

Liu Yu saw Li Mi.

"How?" Liu Yu approached Li Mi and asked, "Has anyone issued any orders at the Yunanmen Defense Department last night?"

Li Mi was stunned for a moment and thought about what Liu Yu said. He said, "No. Is Brother Liu afraid something happened in the palace?"

This kind of words cannot be said in the palace, and Liu Yu did not discuss them with him anymore. To enter the main palace, he had to pass the Yuhua Hall. A eunuch had to check whether he had sharp weapons on his body. Then he walked through the Langfang to the Cui Palace on the main palace. Two or three hundred officials of all sizes of Chang'an City had gathered inside. Civil officials were wearing official uniforms, and the third rank was purple robes, and blue robes were from below the third rank, and the two were equivalent. Military generals wore armor and helmets, and only the deputy commander and above were qualified to participate in the court meeting, and the number was relatively small. The generals of the outer camp outside Chang'an were responsible for the security of the capital. They should not have participated in the court meeting, but this time they were also ordered to come, which made Liu Yu even more puzzled.

Isn’t the old emperor afraid of any changes? These people with military power are not in their position and cannot be controlled?

This is the first time that Liu Yu has entered Fengcui Palace. The court meetings have nothing to do with him. This grand dynasty meeting only last time during festivals, and celebrations are mostly held. Last time, the Turks did not hold a court meeting. In Liu Yu's opinion, this court meeting was either the old emperor wanted to pass the throne when he died or the candidate to announce his succession. After all, the old emperor's body is obvious to all. If he drags on, it will be even more difficult to control the incident of passing the throne at the end of his life.

Although the ministers in Fengcui Palace were not loud, they seemed very noisy. At the head of the civil officials, an old man with a square face in his fifty or sixty years old was talking to several important ministers around him. Liu Yu had already learned that the new right prime minister was named Yuan Bolang and his courtesy name was Yuzhong. As his name was, Yuan Bolang was a foolish and loyal minister. He was already idle at home. This time he recruited him to become a prime minister, and the old emperor also had plans to make him stable transition. He was famous in the court for his loyalty, and he could be said to be the best candidate for the emperor to entrust his or her orphan. Li Zhe'er's father, Li Yannian, was naturally defeated. After all, Li Yannian had just been released from prison. Although he was compensated for the title of Minister of Rites and was granted the title of Prince Shaobao. To put it bluntly, he was disconnected from the current officialdom, unable to convince the public, and was put on hold.

Liu Yu's father Liu Zhao was not listed, and no one of the Marquis of Dingguo came to Dingguo's Mansion except Liu Yu.

Before the court meeting began, Liu Yu was a little bored waiting in such a crowded place. At this time, a little eunuch suddenly came over and said, "General Liu, someone is looking for him outside."

Liu Yu turned his head and saw Han Sheng wave to him at the gate of Fengcui Palace.

Liu Yu talked to Xu Xuanzhu and then went over. At this time, Han Sheng looked very nervous. He held a letter in his hand and called Liu Yu to about fifty meters away from Lifeng Cui Palace before stopping.

"Brother Han, is there something wrong with the palace?" Liu Yu didn't need to avoid it too much when facing Han Sheng.

Han Sheng glanced behind Liu Yu and saw that no one was following him, he said, "I don't know what the situation is now. There is a mess in the bedroom. I will never see you when I go to see you several times."

Even Han Sheng, the emperor's close minister, didn't know the situation in the palace, and Liu Yu thought to himself that the matter might be serious.

"Concubine Li issued an order that the inner court did not allow palace maids and eunuchs to walk around at will. No one except the imperial physician was allowed to enter. No one of the imperial physicians who entered to take the emperor's pulse was seen so far. Even Commander He from the Imperial Guard could not find him, which was really deadly." Han Sheng said worriedly.

"Commander He is gone?" Liu Yu was a little surprised. No matter what, He Mao, the commander of the Imperial Army, should stick to his post, and if there is any change, he should come out to stabilize the overall situation of the palace as soon as possible.

"Teacher He can't find it, so I'll leave it to you for custody first. If the emperor has an accident, you will come out to preside over the defense of the Imperial Guards and stabilize the overall situation."

Han Sheng handed the book in his hand to Liu Yu. Liu Yu opened it curiously, was startled after a look, and hurriedly closed it. The book was not something else, but the emperor passed the throne to King Su Zhe of Chu.

"This..." Liu Yu quickly returned the hot thing and said, "Where did Brother Han come from?"

Han Sheng sighed, "I had returned to Chang'an one day before. As soon as I saw the emperor, the emperor asked me to keep this item, saying that it was in case of an out of time and joined forces with He to stabilize the court. I could feel the emperor's nervousness, but I didn't expect such a big change to happen in just two days."

Liu Yu frowned. Although the emperor's condition was one day short, he would definitely not expect the deadline when his health was still well. He was still so prepared to hand over the edict to the trusted Han Sheng for safekeeping. Han Sheng had no official position and no status in the court. The most he could call was He Mao and his Imperial Guard. Now the tiger talisman is not in Han Sheng's hands, and He Mao is nowhere to be seen. The edict to pass the talisman in Han Sheng's hand is useless and may become a death talisman.

"Brother Han, do you think someone is going to rebel?" Liu Yu put forward a bold assumption.

"What does Brother Liu mean?"

"I mean, the emperor expected in advance that someone would be unfavorable to him and was surrounded by others, so he presented this edict to the throne, so he asked you to discuss countermeasures with Chief Who?"

Han Sheng thought about it carefully, and suddenly his face became more worried: "Are you talking about... Concubine Li?"

"To be precise, Concubine Li and his son. Now the King of Chu is not in the capital. King Jin is still on his way back. The eldest princess and the fourth princess are women. But it is better for the king to complete the task of paying food early and return to the capital. If the emperor has a few shortcomings, who do you think will be the biggest beneficiary?"

Liu Yu was already surprised by his resignation. If he had won the trust of the emperor and made great contributions, the old emperor would definitely not have resigned him. But if the emperor was threatened and had to remove some trusted people and was forced to pass the throne, the old emperor's attitude was very interesting. But this time the court would recruit the heads of the various defense departments in Chang'an City into the palace, and the power of Chang'an City entered a vacuum state. Whoever controls the palace where the power gathers will be the future emperor.

Now, only the fifth prince, namely, King Su of Yi, can also join forces with Concubine Li who calls the wind and rain in the palace, and the mother and son can do it.

If this is true, then Concubine Li and Su Yi and his son would be very smart. They would directly jump out of colluding with foreign ministers to mobilize soldiers from the six major defense departments of Chang'an that did not belong to them. They just need to control the old emperor and force the old emperor to write or kill the old emperor and then succeed to the throne at the court meeting. If anyone is not convinced, they can be killed on the spot. And the head of the defense department in Chang'an City has no soldiers or powers. At that time, they only need to imprison them, and then pass the order to the internal defense department and then to the outer camp of Chang'an, and take over the military power with people who trust. It can be said that it is a control method from the inside to the outside.

When Han Sheng heard Liu Yu's words, he felt that the situation was even more serious.
