Chapter 961 Moving Out Tonight
Xia Ning would certainly not say this last sentence.
He is not that stupid, so why should he tell the truth and make King Yixuan feel uncomfortable?
When King Yixuan heard this, he waved his hands, stepped forward, helped Xia Ning up, and explained to him solemnly: "Since Lord Xia came here with Chu Yan, he must have known about this."
"Since Your Excellency already knows, I will no longer hide it from Your Excellency."
"I am not a person who can be an emperor. I am also aware of the difficulties that Dali is facing, so..."
Thinking of this, King Yixuan shook his head helplessly and laughed at himself.
Fu Yao, who was standing by, saw what his prince was thinking, so he bowed in the direction of Lord Xia and said directly: "Lord Xia, please forgive me, my prince is just like this, none of this matters."
After saying this, she looked towards Pei Chuyan with a sparkling gaze: "My Lord and I have been looking forward to Chuyan's return to Dali Kingdom as soon as possible. Now that he is willing to come back, my Lord is naturally willing to give him over."
"If Lord Xia is worried, why not let the prince and I move back to Prince Yixuan's mansion tonight?"
Xia Ning looked up in surprise at King Yixuan in front of him and was stunned.
He originally thought that Prince Yixuan was a freak, but he didn't expect that Prince Yixuan's wife was even more surprising.
Before he opened his mouth, Prince Yixuan beside him nodded quickly: "Okay, we will go back to Prince Yixuan's mansion tonight."
Seeing her husband like this, Fu Yao shook her head helplessly, still looking in Xia Ning's direction: "Please forgive me, Lord Xia, my husband is really not suitable to be an emperor."
"I'm not hiding it from you, nephew. Your uncle has been working day and night for these national affairs these days. He is really exhausted, so he wants to escape from here as soon as possible."
Pei Chuyan raised his head and looked in the direction of King Yixuan and Fu Yao, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
He knew how much importance the couple attached to the eldest prince, but he had never seen them act like this before.
This also helped him to resolve the slight doubt in his heart.
Looking at the appearance of King Yixuan and his wife, I think they are definitely not the kind of people who are greedy for power.
I think with them around, we will be able to support the Dali Kingdom.
However, King Yixuan's temper is still a little weak after all. The most important thing now is to first eliminate the termites left by Li Cheng in the court.
The next morning, what should have been an orderly morning court session, became bustling when King Yixuan, Pei Chuyan and Xia Ning arrived at the court.
King Ui Xuan still sat peacefully on the dragon throne as usual.
To be honest, during this period of time, every time King Yixuan sat on the dragon throne, he always felt like sitting on pins and needles.
But he knew in his heart that he must not show any weakness.
He always reminds himself constantly so that he can show his dominance.
What surprised all the officials was that the person following King Uiseon at this time was not his bodyguards, but a nobleman with an imposing manner and another minister dressed in official uniform.
The problem is that the clothes worn by this minister were not the official clothes of the Dali Kingdom.
His attire was quite unique.
Although the ministers in the court of the Dali Kingdom had never been on a diplomatic mission to the Great Chu Kingdom and did not recognize the nobleman standing next to King Yixuan, they recognized the attire of the Great Chu officials.
They were of course quarreling non-stop.
Some people even questioned King Yixuan, asking why he brought the minister of the Great Chu State with him.
Could it be that King Yixuan asked the State of Chu for help in order to seek its protection?
For a while, everyone had different opinions.
Some of Li Cheng's staunch supporters would naturally not support King Yixuan, so they would like to see the gradual decline of the Dali Kingdom under King Yixuan's rule. This would give them an excuse to support a new emperor to take the throne.
There were also some other ministers who supported King Uiseon, but it was only because they had supported the eldest prince in the past.
If they were asked to bow to the Great Chu State, they would absolutely refuse to do so.
King Yixuan said nothing, which was rare. He sat on the dragon throne with a stern face, and just looked coldly at the noisy people in the court.
Just like this, the ministers looked at each other, with all kinds of doubts and surprises intertwined among them.
In the midst of this chaos, a voice came from the corner: "This young master looks like the eldest prince."
This sound was particularly harsh in this chaos.
These words undoubtedly caused a huge uproar, and everyone's eyes were once again focused on Pei Chuyan. The more they looked at him, the more they felt that he was strikingly similar to the eldest prince.
This young man looks to be only a dozen years old, but he is very steady.
At this time, he was standing quietly beside King Uiseon, but he had an invisible aura.
His hair was neatly tied up, his brows revealed a heroic look, and his eyes were clear and bright. He really looked like a crown prince.
But in comparison, the former eldest prince might have liked to laugh more, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, which made people feel a little warm.
However, this young man did not have any expression on his face. He just stood there coldly, making people inexplicably feel a little afraid of him.
At this moment, he just stood there, exuding an innate nobility.
The more one looks at him, the more one feels that he is exactly like the eldest prince.
The court suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at each other, confused. They did not know the true identity of this man.
At this time, a minister who was once loyal to Li Cheng and disliked King Yixuan took the lead in breaking the silence.
He snorted suspiciously, "Could it be that this young master was sent by King Yixuan to deal with our ministers?"
"The eldest prince has passed away for many years and has no offspring. Could it be that King Yixuan wants to use this prince to completely control the Dali Kingdom?"
As soon as the minister said this, the atmosphere in the court suddenly became tense.
Upon hearing this, King Yixuan stared at the minister in front of him, his eyes were so gloomy that ink could drip out. He looked at the minister and said in a deep voice: "Come here, the Minister of Personnel, Lord Wang, has slandered me without reason. Drag him away and give him ten strokes of the cane."
When King Uiseon said this, all the ministers in the court were shocked.
They really didn't expect that King Uiseon, who was always a bit cowardly in their eyes, would be so decisive.
People were talking about it.
Naturally, no one dared to speak up for Lord Wang.
After all, although the person he offended was only King Yixuan, he was also the nominal emperor of the Dali Kingdom.
It was obvious that King Ui-seon was really angry.
The imperial power is supreme, who dares to disobey it?
