Not just similar, they're exactly the same.
But who dares to say?
Look at the two of them, they are wearing clothes of the same color, the dark purple color is deep and cold, although they are sitting in separate positions, it is obvious that they are trying to hide their identity.
There might be some other relationship between the two of them.
Several ministers wiped their sweat and said:
“No.”
"The Ninth Prince is gentle and handsome, while Miss Xie is calm and generous. You can tell at a glance that she has inherited the blood of General Xie. She is a person of temperament. You and the Ninth Prince are completely two different people!"
"Yes, that's right..."
Chu Li clasped his fists and said, "Thank you all for your kind words to my father!"
Chu Dichi raised his hand and said, "Everyone sit down."
"Thank you, Regent."
Although everyone was seated, many eyes were still cautiously looking towards Chu Li's position, especially the Seventh Prince.
Chu Jinglin's eyes were about to pop out of fire.
Chu Li!
She is Chu Li!
Even if it turns into ashes, he will not mistake it!
"The situation in our country is turbulent right now, and the incident involving the former crown prince has caused a lot of buzz in the south. What do you gentlemen think about this?" Chu Di raised his voice slowly.
The ministers were concerned about the country and immediately returned to the topic, concentrating on discussing state affairs:
"I suspect that the former crown prince is just a cover. The fifth prince has long been plotting treason, but he doesn't want to be charged with treason, so he uses the former crown prince as an excuse."
"In the land of Great Chu, the people will never support an outsider like him!"
"If you want to fight, then fight!"
With the country and the people at stake, the voices of the ministers became louder and louder.
Every man has a passion in his bones, whether for fame, for family, for love, or for other reasons.
They are not afraid of war!
Chu Li sat there, sipping her wine quietly and listening to their discussion. She noticed a sharp gaze staring at her.
Facing this gaze...Seventh Brother?
She raised her eyebrows, raised her glass and smiled.
Respect him.
Chu Jinglin clenched his fists. If it weren’t for this kind of occasion, he would have rushed up to question him.
When the heated discussion reached its climax, the Second Prince suddenly said:
"A country cannot be without a ruler for even a day, especially during this period of turmoil with internal and external troubles. It is even more important to have a ruler to calm the people!"
But now in the Great Chu, the Regent has always been in power, and he has delegated power to Prince Xian.
The officials looked at each other and whispered something:
"The Second Prince is talking about..."
"A country cannot be without a ruler for a day, just like an army cannot be without a commander for a day, a family cannot be without a master for a day, and the sky cannot be without the sun for a day..."
Chu Di slowly leaned back in his chair and opened his hands. "Second Brother means that someone must take over the throne."
The second prince bowed:
"Uncle, I am speaking for the country and the people. If the country is without a leader, it will be in turmoil."
Chu Dichi glanced around the hall: "What about you?"
All the civil and military officials knelt down and said: "For the sake of the country and the people, please ascend the throne!"
"Is there anything I have done wrong since I came to power?"
"The Regent is a man of both ability and virtue. There is nothing to fault with him. It's just... it's just..."
Seeing the officials hesitating, Chu Di smiled:
"It's just that before the Emperor Chu became paralyzed, he passed the throne to the Ninth Prince. I am not qualified to inherit it. Now that the Ninth Prince has passed away, we should promote another more suitable candidate."
Everyone shut up.
Silence is acquiescence.
Chu Li suddenly said, "Since we want to recommend a candidate, the regent is also a member of the royal family and is qualified."
The second prince immediately said:
"My father has so many descendants alive, and my uncle is one of my uncles."
Chu Li said: "The succession is not divided into uncles, nephews and nieces. As long as the surname is Chu and as long as they are members of the royal family, they should be eligible."
The second prince said solemnly: "If that's the case, then Uncle Xiaoyao also has the right of succession, and Uncle Xiaoyao is older than Uncle Regent, so it should be his turn."
The word "round" made Chu Li suddenly clench his glass.
wheel!
This word is used well.
If Prince Xian died, the Second Prince would be the oldest among the princes, so it would be his turn...
Tsk.
The ambition is here.
She took a sip of wine and covered the curve of her lips. The gloom of the past three days was swept away at this moment, and she felt suddenly enlightened.
Chu Dichi looked at the group of people arguing fiercely. A palace banquet to discuss war has now turned into a battle for the throne.
He was not surprised and asked casually:
"In your opinion, who is the most qualified to inherit the throne?"
Everyone looked at each other carefully. Some of the ministers glanced at the Second Prince quietly, lowered their heads, exhaled twice, and said loudly:
"The idle king is the most qualified!"
"For the past few days, Prince Xian has been acting as the governor of the country, working diligently and without making any mistakes. He is kind and benevolent. If he succeeds to the throne, we will sincerely submit!"
Several people knelt down.
Several more people knelt down one after another.
The second prince's eyes turned dark, and he also said: "Lord Li, Lord Wang, and Lord Yang are right. Prince Xian is a kind person. If he were a king, he would definitely implement benevolent policies and bless the people. It would be a blessing for the people and the country!"
Among the many princes, only the eighth prince was crowned king.
He holds a high position and is the most qualified person to inherit.
But they didn't know that the King of Xian was poisoned and had been in a coma for three days and was about to die...
Once Prince Xian died, according to the eldest son inheritance system, it would be the second prince's turn...
Chu Li took a sip of wine and chuckled.
