The solemn funeral was held in the deputy hall of the Temple of Heaven in the north of the palace. This was the place where His Majesty the Emperors of all dynasties held their funerals. Teams of ministers lined up in line, and the coffins were placed in the center of the hall. The crystal screen separated the old and thin Emperor His Majesty forever.

The person who presided over the funeral ceremony was Ning Yuanwang, the deputy administrative minister of the Empire. A large number of boring clichés were recited by Ning Yuanwang Yong's tone, which made Wufeng, who had been standing in the back row of the hall, and was extremely breathing. The hall was quiet and silent, only Ning Yuanwang's old voice echoed in the hall. The court etiquette official with a high bun and a cold face attracted Wufeng's attention again. The beautiful face always showed a solemn atmosphere, especially the pair of Jianshui's pupils were like morning stars, which would always bring a coolness when passing by you.

While standing among the ministers bored, Wufeng quietly looked at the etiquette official who was said to be the queen mother's nephew and had a considerable influence on the queen mother. His eyebrows were as far away as the mountains, gathered but not dispersed, his chest was straight but not raised, and his buttocks were closed but not let go. He should still be a virgin, but she should be about the same age as Angel and Situ Yushuang. It is indeed rare to be able to maintain virginity at this age.

Every time the singing ceremony, the sound of ridge blooming in the red lips always makes Wufeng feel heartbeat. This feeling of voyeurism makes Wufeng's whole body in a special stimulating scene. If she could strip her clothes naked and play with them freely in such a solemn environment, I wonder what the smell would be like? At this moment, Wufeng was also surprised that such evil and absurd thoughts in his heart were born.

According to the royal etiquette procedures of the Tanghe Empire, once the old emperor is buried in the coffin, the next step is the new emperor's ascendance ceremony. The new emperor's ascendance ceremony should be held in the main hall of the Temple of Heaven and then in the Dezheng Hall. However, in view of the current complex situation, the Provisional Military and Political Committee, after soliciting the opinions of the Empress Dowager and His Majesty, set the time for the new emperor's candidate to be determined one month later, and the ascendance ceremony will also be held on the second day after the candidate is determined.

After the burial was completed, the Imperial Military and Political Decision-making Committee read out the decision, it immediately caused an uproar in the court. Doesn’t this mean that the empire will still be in a situation where there is no leader within this month?! Local officials from various counties in the empire had to continue to stay in the imperial capital for a month until the new emperor was born. But facing the end of the year, how should the local government affairs be handled?

He watched coldly as his colleagues clamored in the court with anger. Wufeng did not participate in the discussion of these people. It was obvious that the prestige of the Empire's Provisional Decision Committee was difficult to convince the public. Everyone knew that this was just a transitional agency, so the noise became more and more unscrupulous. On behalf of the Provisional Military and Political Decision Committee, a group of officials, responded so strongly and were a little undecided. Seeing Ning Yuanwang was a little hesitant, the ministers were even more quarreled and scolded. Seeing this, Ning Yuanwang had to suspend the court meeting and let the ministers rest temporarily in the main hall and surrounding side halls. He summoned a group of members of the decision-making committee to the harem to report the opinions of the ministers to the Empress Dowager and the Queen, and waited for the final discussion results to come out and make an announcement.

Ning Yuanwang's cowardly performance made Wufeng quite interesting. If he could not show strength in this situation, it would be even more difficult to suppress these officials from various departments who were doing nothing and chatting for a living. Such a result would only make the government more and more difficult to control until the power of several princes surfaced to form a situation of their own governance.

While thinking, the ministers began to disperse and talk in circles. The month after His Majesty the Emperor passed away, almost everyone lost the freshness of His Majesty the Emperor. More people even thought that this was not good. Faced with the decision of the Military and Political Decision-making Committee, they could question and refute without hesitation. If they were not satisfied, they could even curse and refuse to implement it. The committee, which had no power to remove officials, had no ability to control the government, and its natural defects made it difficult.

"Mr. Li, it seems that we are in the same way and can only stay in this imperial capital for a while." The greeting from behind interrupted Wufeng's thoughts.

The fat man and another middle-aged man with a somewhat rustic appearance appeared behind Wufeng. He turned his head and saw a cheerful smile on his face. He held the other person's hand intimately and said, "Brother Liao, this is also a good thing. It is also a pleasant thing to worry about political affairs all day long. It is also a pleasant thing to be able to have some leisure time in the imperial capital. I really want to stay in this comfortable nest in the imperial capital for a year and a half, and not go back to the desolate land in the northwest. Well, this person is—?"

Seeing the fat man with bright eyes, a cigarette rod stayed away at any time, Wufeng had actually guessed the other party's origin, but hesitated politely for a moment, waiting for Liao Qichang's introduction.

"Haha, Lord Li, this is my old friend Chang Gui. He has long admired your name." The fat man is Liao Qichang, the head of Jiangnan County. His fat face, which is smiling and unable to close his mouth, is always full of enthusiasm. He also patted the two of them on the shoulders intimately, "Now you two are neighbors, and you should get closer and more in the future."

Wufeng then greeted the rustic man and the atmosphere became harmonious.

"Brother Li, your northwest is now thriving. Isn't Qingyang known as Jiangnan? Why, I'm not satisfied? Otherwise, if you and I change positions, I have admired the Northwest Hebei Luzon under your rule for a long time. I heard that the exotic scenery of the North Luzon Hebei Western Regions of the Northern Luzon Hebei Western Regions is refreshing, and the Thousand Mile Grassland in Tengger is even more fascinating." Liao Qichang quipped with a smile.

"Haha, Brother Liao is joking. Jiangnan is beautiful and the mainland is a unique beauty. How can I compare to my deserted land? But if Brother Liao has time, you might as well go to the northwest. I will definitely wait for you." Wufeng also smiled and replied: "Of course, if Brother Chang is interested, I will welcome you."

While greeting, Chang Gui carefully observed the young man in front of him. He was gentle and elegant with a rare enthusiasm. It seemed that it was very willing to make friends with him. It was a bit inconsistent with the rumors that he killed people without blinking. Maybe he was used to indulging in the deserted areas, so he had to restrain himself when he returned to the imperial capital.

Liao Qichang, who had sharp eyes, noticed a trace of worry between Wufeng's eyebrows while laughing, and then smiled and said, "Is it possible that Brother Li has anything to worry about? I don't think I'm very happy."

Wufeng didn't want to hide anything, and smiled faintly: "Oh, the fortune is difficult. Seeing that the situation in this empire is unstable and foreign enemies are about to invade, how can we, those who are subordinates, relax?" Wufeng also knew that this news would not be hidden for long, and everyone would know it, so he just made a favor.

"Oh?" The two of them were also experienced people and immediately realized the meaning of Wufeng's words. "Brother Li seems to have something in his words."

He glanced at the surroundings with a pretentious attitude, and when he saw no one paying attention, Wufeng lowered his voice: "The Kaman and the Poole people will probably launch an unprecedented attack on Beiyuan and Yan Yun in these two days. If you have anything to deal with, take action as soon as possible."

It was like a thunderbolt from the blue, which shocked the two of them all to their bodies, "Brother, do you think this is serious?"

Wufeng pondered for a while before saying, "There should be no mistakes. As for whether to believe it or not, it depends on you."

As soon as Wufeng said this, the two knew that there would be no mistake. With his reputation as the king of the Northwest and the intelligence network in the north and the Derlock, this statement was at least 80% reliable. This is a huge news. Once the war in the north, the adjacent imperial capital, the East China Sea, will definitely fall sharply, and daily necessities such as grain will soar. The five lakes in the south of the Yangtze River will be no exception. The manipulation of the grain prices alone will make a fortune.

Seeing the two of them's faces, they knew that they had believed their opinions. Wufeng said again: "Brother Chang, I guess things will not be so simple this time. It is hard to say whether the Maqi Khan will be involved here. I am afraid that your five lakes will be difficult to get out of here. You must take care of yourself."

Chang Gui was shocked and grabbed Wufeng's hand and asked, "What does Brother Li mean?"

"Don't Brother Chang see the seriousness of the problem? If the Kaman and the Puer join forces to invade the south, the scale can be imagined. The current situation of the empire is chaotic and the Maqi Khan has already gained a foothold in Baling Mansion. Doesn't Brother Chang know what the Maqi Khan's naval army trained in Yuejing? According to the information I have, this navy army had secretly set sail into Baling Mansion half a month ago? Brother Chang is a local snake, so he won't even know this information? Unless someone wants to deceive you intently!" Li Wufeng asked in surprise, "Will the Maqi Khan have this opportunity stand by like this? The Third Highness is not in Wuhu, I am afraid that the ministries will find it difficult to work together. The current situation in Wuhu is quite dangerous."

Chang Gui's face suddenly turned gray and his lips twitched violently like a cut wound. He didn't come back to his senses for a while: "So that's it!"

Wufeng and Liao Qichang, who were beside him, both heard that there were other meanings in the other party's words, but in this case, it was not convenient to ask more questions. However, Liao Qichang apologized to Wufeng, saying that some matters urgently needed to be handled immediately, so he hurriedly pulled Chang Gui away, and Wufeng did not try to keep him. He knew that after learning the news, the two of them naturally had a lot of private business things to deal with, otherwise once the news spread, it would be no longer worth it.
