This morning court session can be regarded as a great comeback for Xia Muyan.
But the situation is not optimistic.
After Zuo Lian negotiated all night and contacted some truly loyal and patriotic ministers, as well as some ministers who had previously supported the prince, they naturally agreed to continue to stand firmly on the prince's side.
But after all, Xia Muyan has been away from the court for more than three years. In addition, the imperial concubine's mother's family and Xia Muyu have made careful arrangements in the court over the years, and they now have the support of the Bai Mansion.
In the court today, the power of the ministers supporting the crown prince and the third prince is surprisingly evenly matched.
Although the old emperor is still in power and can suppress some of the trouble for the time being, the imperial concubine has become increasingly powerful in recent years, and her arrogance and brazenness are no longer the same as they were three years ago.
It was only after returning to the court that Xia Muyan learned that all his brothers, except Xia Muyu, had been exiled to the border or suppressed and eliminated on various charges...
"How ridiculous!" After listening to the report, Xia Muyan clenched his fists under his sleeves: In the past, he was poisoned and could hardly protect himself, so he naturally did not want to care about these dirty things in the court. He also hoped that his father would choose a wise and capable person from his other brothers to succeed to the throne, as long as it was not Xia Muyu.
But I never expected that group of people would be so arrogant and vicious!
In this case, he would have to fight for the throne even if he didn't want to. He couldn't let Xia Muyu get it so easily?!
Besides, it was supposed to be his.
However, he knew that he still had several tough battles to fight.
If it weren't for Shu'er, even if he returned to the court, he might not be so anxious and would plan more carefully.
At that time, the Left Prime Minister also kindly reminded him: Why not take advantage of the fact that he is in the dark and the enemy is in the open, not show up in a hurry, but make more plans and take it slowly.
But he refused.
He can wait, but Shu'er can't.
He knew that if he wanted to completely rescue Shu'er from Xia Muyu, his identity as a mountain king would not be enough.
He must regain his status as the crown prince as soon as possible. Even if his father passes away, the status of emperor will belong to him.
For Shu'er, even though the plan was not perfect, he decided to return to the court immediately and sit back on his throne as crown prince.
He couldn't wait to take it step by step.
