At the same time, a huge change had occurred within the imperial family of Western Li! All of them had different thoughts in their hearts. Some people thought that Zhuge Feimo was just a military advisor and didn't need to go on stage to kill the enemy, but he suddenly died in his own tent. The people sent by Helian were also secretly releasing the news.
Right now, Murong Xiu's absence could be said to be his word. When he heard the news of Zhuge Feimu's death from Xi Li's army, he knew that it was time for him to move to Murong Xiu. However, Murong Xiu was a famous Regent in Xi Li, so how could he be moved so easily?
”If Left Official has anything to say, just say it.” The little Emperor Xi Wen also nodded his head. At this moment, Murong Xiu wasn't here, and he didn't know how to deal with him. After all, Murong Fu was still young, and Murong Xiu was the one who handled most of the problems.
”Your majesty, that Zhuge Feimu is an important official of me, Xi Li. Now, he has actually died in our own military camp. This old man is truly disappointed. I hope your majesty can handle this matter impartially.” Zuo Wuji pretended to be grieving.
”Yes, please recall the Regent to explain this matter clearly. Otherwise, we won't be able to feel at ease.” After Zuo Zi said that, the other ministers standing behind him also stood up and knelt on the ground. They looked even better than Murong Xiu. These people must be Zuo Qing's trusted aides, otherwise they wouldn't have wanted to impeach Mu Rong Xiu at this moment.
”Prime Minister Zuo, right now Lord Murong is fighting with the Northern Yue. It's probably inappropriate to call him back right now. Besides, things might not be as Prime Minister Zuo thinks.” At that moment, Murong Bowen also stood out. Murong Bowen was an important official of the imperial court, was even a post in the Crown Prince's Palace, and was also Murong Xiu's trusted aide. Thus, he immediately refuted him.
When Xi Wen saw the two of them refuting each other, he felt a lot of unhappiness in his heart, ”Do you still place me in your eyes? What you say is what it is! ” At last, Xi Wen started to feel dissatisfied. Although Xi Wen was still young, he still understood some things. He knew that Prime Minister Zuo could not scold him, and he also knew that Murong Bo Wen couldn't casually say anything because Murong Bo Wen was still his teacher, but Xi Wen also knew something in his heart. At this moment, Zhuge Fei Mo had actually died on his side in the army camp, which made Xi Wen very confused.
”Your Majesty, please forgive me.” Seeing the Emperor's anger, everyone also kneeled down, while Zuo Qianshou continued to say unwillingly, ”Your Majesty, Zhuge Feimo has contributed a lot to Xi Li. If we let him die like this without knowing why, then this subject will feel very uneasy even after working with Lord Zhuge for so many years.
”Hmph, Zuo Qian, if you have something to say, just say it. The Emperor is still too young to listen to your nonsense.” Mu Rong Boven also retorted, his heart was also filled with anger. Zuo Qian had become bolder because Mu Rong Xiu wasn't here, but the dispute between Zuo Qian and Mu Rong Xiu was well-known. Zuo Qian couldn't win against Murong Xiu, so when he saw Mu Rong Xiu's actions, he immediately went to impeach Mu Rong Xiu.
”Hey, what are you guys doing? Let's get up first.” Xi Wen helplessly shook his head. With a childish face, he didn't know what to do. Then, he looked at the old eunuch next to him, Eunuch Huang. This was the person he trusted the most besides Murong Xiu, because Eunuch Huang served the late emperor, and was the person he trusted the most. Upon seeing him, Eunuch Huang nodded his head in agreement. Xi Wen could only nod.
”Just do as my beloved one says. Call Lord Murong back, but don't let anyone else know!” He knew that the young emperor would not make such a decision, but Eunuch Huang acted as if it had nothing to do with him. Standing by the side, he did not say a single word.
”Yes, your majesty. Your majesty is wise.” At this moment, Zuo Qian's eyebrows were raised and some happiness could be seen in his eyes. As long as Murong Xiu returns, then the military power will no longer be under Murong Xiu's control. Zuo Qian also knew that as long as he was in charge of the military, then he would not be able to control the military power. Then, Murong Xiu wouldn't be able to beat him anymore.
At that moment, Murong Xiu was already brimming with anger within the Western District's army camp. The one who was going to fight was not Zi Yuan, but Wang Fei, who he sent out, was beheaded by his opponent. From Nangong Xiong's point of view, the mission that he had consecutively completed had to be completed, so when Nangong Xiong was fighting with Wang Fei, he was also determined to kill him. He would rather risk his own injuries to kill him.
”Tell me, do I, Xi Li, have such a great general?” Mu Rong Xiu looked around at the crowd and said coldly.
