Officials big and small already know everything they need to know.

For a time, the entire Xiliang officialdom was in panic.

The King of Xiliang passed away and had no successor. No one knew what the future would be like.

Even if a new king takes the throne, the cards may be reshuffled. By then, the foundation that the officials have finally laid will be destroyed.

How not to panic? How not to be afraid?

Most of the people came to the palace, on the one hand to express their condolences, and on the other hand, to check on the situation.

If things get really bad, they'll have to take a stand early.

Only in this way can you keep your current official position.

But now, the only person who has the qualifications, ability, and strength to take over the position of King of Xiliang is General Lu Zhiyuan!

First, Lu Zhiyuan is a member of the Lu family and can be regarded as a member of the royal family, which is justifiable.

Second, Lu Zhiyuan, as a hussar general, was in charge of half of Xiliang's troops and horses, and was extremely powerful.

Third, Lu Zhiyuan has been concentrating his efforts for many years. Regardless of his connections, prestige, or achievements, he has enough strength to sit on the throne.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lu Zhiyuan is now the one everyone expects.

After expressing their condolences, many officials immediately ran to the General's Mansion to express their loyalty to Lu Zhiyuan.

Naturally, these actions could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the palace, but now, Li Yishuang could not control these people at all.

"Mom, you've been here all day. Go back to your room and rest first. Don't hurt your body."

Seeing his mother's face full of sadness and fatigue, Lu Tianba couldn't help but persuade her.

"Your father just left, how can I have any time to rest?" Li Yishuang shook his head.

"It is precisely because your father is gone that you have to take care of yourself. Now that the palace is in turmoil, you, the princess, need to take the lead. You must not fall!" Lu Tianba said seriously.

"But......"

Li Yishuang wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Lu Tianba: "Mom! Listen to me this time! You go back to your room to rest first, and it won't be too late to come back for the wake tomorrow morning."

Without waiting for Li Yishuang to respond, Lu Tianba waved to the two maids and ordered: "You two, send my mother back immediately and take good care of her."

"yes."

The two maids responded and helped Li Yishuang stand up.

Because she had been kneeling for too long, Li Yishuang felt that her legs were numb and she could not stand firmly.

"Tianba, you should also pay attention to your health and take precautions." Li Yishuang warned.

"Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion."

Lu Tianba nodded, watched his mother leave, and then ordered to the group of people behind him: "You all should go back, I can just keep vigil by myself."

Everyone looked at each other, at a loss.

"What? Doesn't what I say work?" Lu Tianba glanced coldly. JrNovels.com
