Chapter 1284: Counterattack (3)
’Qi Haoran has soldiers, money, and manpower as well now. If he intends to stage a rebellion, would you be able to withstand it?’
Although the courtiers did not say it clearly, their words conveyed such a meaning. Not only Rong Xuan, but even Fan Zijin’s heart was in his throat.
Qi Xiuyuan directly expressed that his brother was not cut out to be an Emperor and would not want to be the Emperor.
Seeing that the courtiers were still harping on this topic, Qi Xiuyuan hinted, "Queen Consort Rong doesn’t like power. She won’t agree."
Everyone was stunned for a long time before reacting.
King Rong was afraid of his wife!
If Queen Consort Rong didn’t want to be the Empress, would King Rong still want to be the Emperor?
As for why Queen Consort Rong didn’t want to be the Empress, the courtiers all thought that it was because she was a jealous woman who wanted her husband all to herself. If Qi Haoran became the Emperor, he would definitely have a vast harem. At present, she was already a Queen Consort, the second most respected woman in Great Qi, with a status that was even higher than the Eldest Princess’s. What was there to be discontent about?
The courtiers didn’t expect the Emperor to have confidence in King Rong because of Queen Consort Rong. The corners of their mouths twitched and they were speechless.
Fan Zijin stole a glance at Qi Xiuyuan and felt relieved.
