So think it over carefully, do you still want to oppose my succession?
Xiao Zhixing successfully baited them with an enormous lure, making them eager to try their luck.
They began to consider the feasibility and benefits of not opposing her becoming the crown prince.
The benefits are very obvious.
This means that their descendants will be able to legitimately compete for the position of crown prince in the future.

"Xiao Zhixing!"
Suddenly, a rough voice came from afar, interrupting the emperor's words, "I, Taishan, hereby challenge you today. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
