The emperor rarely held a palace banquet to celebrate the prince's stable governance of the government during this period. At the same time, he also took the opportunity to announce that Shangguan Lin would become the new queen.
At the palace banquet, Fang Zhiyi looked at Lin Chengze from a distance, who had a gloomy look in his eyes.
Xiao Hei glanced at Fang Zhiyi, grinned and imitated Fang Zhiyi's smirk as he looked at Lin Chengze. He saw that Lin Chengze's expression gradually changed from resentment to shock, and then to disbelief. He first looked down at himself, then looked up at Fang Zhiyi.
Fang Zhiyi was very calm and just smiled at him.
He walked towards Fang Zhiyi intentionally, and Fang Zhiyi also walked over slowly. Fortunately, no one noticed them.
"What's wrong? Why don't you smile? Isn't this world beautiful?" Fang Zhiyi asked.
"You, you, you knew it a long time ago, right!" Lin Chengze's shrill voice was trembling.
"Hmm." Fang Zhiyi shrugged. "Didn't you say I didn't understand the beauty of the world? I'll let you experience it. How about it? Is it beautiful?"
"You..." Lin Chengze's expression twisted, "Fang Zhiyi, just wait!"
He was confident that even if Fang Zhiyi switched places with him, he would still be able to kill him! Today, his master would become the queen! He himself would also become a great eunuch. He would not be as merciful as Fang Zhiyi in his previous life. He would not let any of those people go.
"Fang Zhiyi, do you think the emperor doesn't know that you've got the prince's gang? Humph."
The two of them walked away, one with a smile on his face and the other with a gloomy expression.
After three rounds of drinks, the emperor stood up and said, "Today I am happy and want to announce something to you all. I have made up my mind!"
The ministers were silent.
"Appoint Shangguan Lin as my queen!"
Only a few of the ministers spoke in agreement, while the others remained silent.
The emperor frowned. "Why are you all so unhappy with my decision?" He glanced at the Crown Prince sitting beside him, a flicker of fear in his eyes. "I know the Crown Prince has been able to govern the country well lately, but he has formed a clique for personal gain. I now announce that I am removing him from his position as Regent and will see what happens next!"
After all, he was the emperor and it was impossible for him to be unaware of the prince's actions.
Except for Prince Rui who had a happy look on his face, many ministers remained silent. Lin Chengze, who was standing behind Shangguan Lin, was also secretly happy. If the prince's party fell, Fang Zhiyi would be finished.
The emperor was a little angry: "Are you all deaf?"
The prince stood up hurriedly: "Father...your son obeys..." Before he could finish the last word, Fang Zhiyi stood up.
"I understand your intention and respectfully request that Your Majesty abdicate."
These words were like thunder. The emperor glared at him and said, "Do you know what you are talking about? Come here!"
Immediately, two personal guards stepped forward, but before they had taken two steps, two other guards put knives to their necks.
"You! Are you going to rebel?" The emperor panicked.
"Your Majesty, I respectfully request that you abdicate." Fang Zhiyi continued, "Currently, the people of the world are suffering. Your Majesty, as the Son of Heaven, has neglected state affairs, imposed heavy taxes, and caused unrest among the people. Many places have experienced civil unrest. Fortunately, the Crown Prince has stabilized the situation. Your Majesty, please abdicate and let a virtuous person take over."
