Guangping Hou gritted his teeth and continued to cry, "I am an old minister who got a son when I was old. Thinking of him, I feel sad, but it's not that I really don't want to live..."

[I just saw several pillars that look good and are suitable for hitting one's head. I don't know which one Guangping Hou will choose. I didn't expect to run into a suicide scene on the first day of court. How exciting! ]

"Your Majesty, is there anyone who is without fault?"

【Hurry up and hit it! 】

"It was an unintentional mistake of my child. Do I really have to exchange one life for another!?"

[Tsk, why are you so slow even when you hit the wall? ]

Marquis Guangping could no longer cry, his old face turned red with anger.

Marquis Guangping: Are you going to let me live?

All the ministers looked at him with sympathy. He had to deal with such a troublesome son in his old age, and also had to deal with Su Juan in his old age.

But they couldn't help but give Su Juan a thumbs up, as he was really good at talking.

Guangping Hou was so angry that his face turned red, his breathing became rapid, and the blood was stuck in his chest. He hated that he only had a mouth.

The old emperor couldn't get a word in, and felt like he was just a foil. The key point was that he thought it was pretty good.

Normally, these old ministers, relying on the merits of their ancestors, often gave the emperor troubles, always crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to commit suicide, which made him extremely annoyed. However, he could not say anything harsh, which would chill the hearts of these loyal ministers.

It’s different today. With Su Juan here, Marquis Guangping can’t stop him from saying anything.

The old emperor narrowed his eyes, and I felt very relieved.

The surroundings were too quiet, as if the pause button had been pressed.

Su Juan blinked and looked around. [Why is Guangping Hou silent? ]

[Hiss——Did he really commit suicide by banging his head against the wall!? ]

[Oh my god! This son is so unfilial. For a woman, he forced his father to death. Such a person must not inherit the title.]

[Otherwise, the life achievements of the old Marquis of Guangping would be tarnished. ]

[This Marquis Guangping is also unfilial. For such a trivial matter as his son, he is willing to bring shame to his ancestors. How unfilial! ]

[If I were him, I would not be able to face my ancestors even after I died...]

"puff--"

Marquis Guangping spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes went dark, and he fell down.

"Not good! Marquis Guangping has fainted..."

"Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician!"

In the chaos, Su Juan huddled in a corner, looking around in confusion, [Didn't he commit suicide by hitting his head against the wall? Why did he faint again? ]

[I understand. It must be because the old emperor refused to pardon his son that he fainted from anger.]

[After all, he is a wise ruler, and he would not do such a thing as favoring the son of a court official. As the saying goes, if the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Moreover, you are just a son of the Marquis of Guangping, and you expect to be above the law? ]

[What a joke! How could we, the ruler of a country, be threatened by you?]

These words directly put the old emperor in a high position from which he could not come down.

The ministers below looked at him eagerly, waiting for him to make the final decision.

Song Qianfan looked forbearing but in fact he was gritting his teeth. Marquis Guangping was an old minister and his words carried a lot of weight in the court. It took him half a year of exchanges before Marquis Guangping expressed his intention to take sides. It was also at his instruction that the Dali Temple helped to conceal the truth this time.

But why is it that every time he makes a connection, this woman always cuts it off?

He knew that if Su Juan entered the court, it would definitely ruin his good fortune!

The emperor coughed lightly, "The son of Marquis Guangping, who treats human life as worthless, shall be stripped of his title and exiled to Qingzhou. Marquis Guangping failed to educate his son properly, so he shall be demoted one level, ordered to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors for three months, and fined three years' salary."

With just a few words, no one in the audience dared to step forward to plead for him.

...

After the incident with Marquis Guangping, there were some trivial matters again, which were very boring. Everyone talked at once, and Su Juan became sleepy. She yawned and her eyelids fell shut.

At this time, two ministers suddenly came up with a memorial, "Your Majesty, the position of the Crown Prince is still undecided, which is not beneficial to the Jin Dynasty. I implore Your Majesty to decide on the Crown Prince as soon as possible to reassure the country and the people."

As soon as this was said, several people stepped forward and said, "I second the motion."

"I second the motion."

The emperor's cold eyes flashed with displeasure. This happened again, every few days. Are these people just hoping for my death?

Where is Su Juan?

Why aren't you talking at this time?

The emperor was very dissatisfied and didn't want to mention this matter. He hadn't heard the news from Su Juan yet, so he didn't want to settle the matter so quickly.

Besides, he actually intended to leave the throne of the Eastern Palace to his own heir...

"I understand what you all mean. Let's discuss this matter later. If there is nothing important, we can leave the court."

The Right Censor of the Metropolitan Censorate knelt down with a plop, "Your Majesty! If the position of the Crown Prince is not decided soon, the country will be in turmoil and the people will be uneasy!"

"I, your Majesty, beg you to settle the East Palace as soon as possible to reassure the country and the people!"

The Right Censor-in-Chief was already very old, with white hair. He was kneeling on the ground, as if he was roasting the old emperor in a frying pan.

Song Qianfan and others were watching from the sidelines. At this moment, they could not say anything. However, the emperor was still delaying the selection of the crown prince. What was he waiting for?

The emperor pursed his lips and his fingers trembled. What on earth was this Su Juan doing?

When she was not needed, she kept nagging all day long. Now that she is needed, she doesn't even say a word!

Just when the emperor was extremely anxious, Su Juan's voice finally sounded faintly.

【Lamb...Duck Leg...】

【tasty.......】

The old emperor: “?”

The whole court was filled with civil and military officials: "?"

Although Su Juanren was standing at this time, his consciousness was swaying and he fell asleep...

The old emperor's face turned black and he could even fall asleep while standing. She was really outrageous!

He was immediately filled with anger. "Everyone is urging me to settle down as soon as possible. I have no children now. Can I conjure one for you out of thin air?!"

The rage reached the ninth heaven, the emperor's pressure was fully unleashed, and he raised his voice, "Can I make it for you!!!"

【!!! Oh my god! I was so scared! 】

The old emperor's roar woke Su Juan up. She subconsciously wiped her mouth. [Fortunately, she didn't drool.]

The ministers wiped away a cold sweat for her.

Su Juan was confused and had no idea what was happening around her. She poked the scholar from the Hanlin Academy in front of her and asked quietly, "Brother Yuan, what happened?"

[Why is the old emperor so angry? ]

The scholar of the Hanlin Academy whispered, "The Censor-in-Chief and several others have jointly submitted a petition, asking Your Majesty to decide on the Eastern Palace as soon as possible."

Su Juan suddenly realized, "So it's about the selection of the crown prince... No wonder he got so angry."

The old emperor's anger suddenly subsided by half.

Su Juan shook her head. [If you ask me, if a tyrant comes to power in the future and kills court officials at will, half of the credit will go to these loyal old officials who are willing to die for their advice!]

When the old officials heard this, their blood boiled. What nonsense!

They are thinking about the country and society of Dajin! What does a woman know! ?

The emperor sat back in his original seat, his turbulent emotions calmed down a little, and he waited for Su Juan to speak for him.

[The old emperor is already very old, doesn't he know that choosing the Crown Prince earlier would benefit the country and the people? ]

The emperor frowned slightly, but still nodded in agreement.

[But you can't urge the emperor every day. It's bad enough that he doesn't have any children! ]

The emperor wiped his tears, finally someone sympathized with him.

[He wanted to carefully examine the candidates, but you guys reminded him every day, making him upset! ]

Emperor:!!! That's right! Su Qing, please continue!

Thinking of this, Su Juan, who had woken up early, became furious. [No wonder he chose such a brainless heir for you in the future. Once the tyrant ascended the throne, he killed all of you old ministers. You keep making noises every day! Who can stand it?!]

[I understand! The old emperor must want to kill all of you who are asking for your lives, so he appointed a crown prince in the future! ]

The hall fell into complete silence.

The emperor's forehead twitched: "......"

Don't speak for me casually!
