Chapter 1395: A sudden change of events, the crown prince is enthroned
Zheng Suxin didn't know when she walked near Xia Siya, and happened to hear what Princess Linghua and Xia Siya were saying, and she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
I haven't offended Princess Ford, right?
It seems... there was...
Tang Bao didn't expect that the emperor would agree so readily.
I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
It’s like you put all your effort into doing something, but before you even start, the problem is solved.
It has to be said that many people had not yet recovered from the emperor's "approval" and were shocked by the emperor's "order".
Eunuch Liu stepped forward and opened the imperial edict, and all the civil and military officials present knelt down.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: The Third Prince, Xuanyuan Jin, is benevolent, strategic, wise, brave, and decisive... He is hereby appointed Crown Prince. A date will be chosen for the grand ceremony, and this will be announced to our ancestors. I decree this!"
The whole court was shocked!
Following Eunuch Liu's slightly sharp voice, the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground quickly changed from their initial shock to something they expected.
After all, there were already various signs indicating that the emperor intended to re-enthrone Xuanyuan Jin as the crown prince.
Lord Wang collapsed to the ground, wishing time could go back.
If he could turn back time, he would never allow his wife and daughter to come to the palace for the banquet.
If he could turn back time, he would never have acted so carelessly and said such things...
He should have believed the rumors in the capital.
Princess Fude must not be offended!
Absolutely don't offend!
Lord Wang was heartbroken with regret.
Amidst the various expressions of the civil and military officials, as well as the emperor's family members, Xuanyuan Jin spoke.
"Thank you, Father! Long live the Emperor!"
Xuanyuan Jin's cold voice sounded, his expression still as calm as before.
He did not show any surprise at being named the crown prince.
The ministers looked at the young man who received the imperial edict.
He was wearing a dark purple brocade robe with arrow sleeves, embroidered with a giant silver python soaring in the clouds with silver thread.
The giant python is majestic and lifelike, adding a sense of majesty that should not be underestimated to the slender and upright young man.
Despite his handsome face, beautiful features, and youthful age, he emanated a subtle sense of oppression that made people subconsciously hold their breath and concentrate...
The civil and military officials could not help but sigh in their hearts that the Third Prince's demeanor alone was beyond the reach of other princes.
After all, he is the emperor's legitimate son and the most legitimate heir to the throne.
No wonder the emperor cultivated him so vigorously and arranged for him to gain experience in the six ministries after returning to Beijing.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Great Yan will prosper forever!"
The deafening cheers rang out in unison, as if they had been rehearsed in advance.
All the civil and military officials present, as well as the imperial guards, knelt on the ground and shouted.
For a moment, the air seemed to become solemn and dignified.
This unexpected turn of events shocked everyone, but also gave people a sense that the dust had settled.
The throne of the crown prince, which had been vacant for many years, finally returned to the young crown prince of the Eastern Palace!
It seems like this is God's will, it's natural and reasonable!
Emperor Tianxi raised his hand slightly and said with a cheerful expression, "The Crown Prince is young and still has some shortcomings. I hope that you, my dear ministers, will give your guidance and careful assistance to help him become a wise ruler in the future."
"I will definitely live up to what the emperor has said!" the civil and military officials said in unison.
But, I felt a wave of fear in my heart.
No one expected that the emperor not only did not suspect the third prince when Lord Wang was trying to sow discord, but instead slapped Lord Wang in the face with his actions.
Now, he even spoke about assisting the third prince.
You know, many emperors became more and more suspicious as they grew older, fearing that their sons would seize the throne.
Even the crown prince could not make friends with foreign officials at will while the emperor was alive, so as not to arouse the emperor's suspicion.
Moreover, words like "assisting the crown prince" were always spoken by emperors of all dynasties when they entrusted their sons to others before their death.
But Your Majesty, you actually said it now.
How much does he value, no, it should be said that he trusts this son.
No, no, no, isn't it a bit unlucky for the emperor to say that...
Many ministers began to have doubts in their hearts.
"Congratulations, brother!" Tang Bao smiled with her eyes curved and walked forward happily to congratulate.
She wasn't surprised.
After all, the Empress even entrusted her with the task of embroidering the Crown Prince's robes.
However, she did not expect that the emperor would make the official announcement on such an occasion.
It has to be said that Tang Bao originally thought that the emperor should have ordered someone to read out the imperial edict during a morning court session in the Golden Throne Hall, which symbolizes the highest imperial power.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was so impatient.
Yes! I just can’t wait!
Because Tang Bao discovered that Emperor Tianxi glanced at the Empress before ordering someone to read the imperial edict.
After Eunuch Liu finished reading the imperial edict, Emperor Tianxi looked at the Empress again.
Tang Bao swore that she was not mistaken. The emperor's expression at this time seemed as if he was asking for credit.
It seems that even though there are three thousand beauties in the harem, the one the emperor cares about most is the empress.
Xuanyuan Jin looked at Tang Bao, and the cold and hard lines on his face seemed to be blown away by a spring breeze in an instant, blooming with thousands of brilliance.
"Um."
A faint word came out from the thin lips.
It's like the first melting winter snow, falling into the mountain stream, creating a clear sound like gold and jade.
A hint of joy appeared in those sparkling eyes.
The corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a smile that was astonishing and unique.
"hiss……"
“Oh my god…”
“How beautiful…”
There were gasps one after another, and a group of young girls, mainly the Sixth Princess, stared with their eyes wide open.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. The Sixth Princess has been obsessed with looks since she was young, and most of the girls who are friends with her are the same.
These little girls may be disciplined and restrained when they are at home.
But after entering the palace, as the Sixth Princess's little follower, he no longer had to suppress his nature.
Anyway, their parents also support them in making friends with the Sixth Princess and going along with the Sixth Princess's temperament.
The little girls expressed their feelings more directly, while the older girls blushed and their hearts were pounding.
The Third Prince actually laughed... laughed...
Just by softening the lines on his face, he looked like a banished immortal, detached from the mundane world, bathed in the light of the sun and moon, stepping down from the clouds...
A group of girls: "..."
Bang, bang, bang...
The heartbeat seemed deafening.
She put her hand over her heart, trying to keep her dignity as a girl and not look, but she couldn't control her eyes.
What's more, this is the current Crown Prince!
Undoubtedly, the prince's halo added another layer of color to Xuanyuan Jin, making these girls dazzled.
It’s a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince’s smile was not directed at them.
