"His Majesty has arrived!!"
A high-pitched, shrill sound rang out, and the entire hall fell completely silent.
Everyone stood up and knelt on the ground.
When the emperor arrived and sat down, everyone shouted "Long live the emperor!"
The Emperor was in high spirits. He raised his hand and smiled at the ministers who knelt before him, shouting "Long live the Emperor!" He said, "Rise, my beloved ministers!"
Everyone around them stood up as well.
Soon, people from various countries sent their congratulatory gifts.
Chen Siyuan sat quietly in her seat, watching the arrival of envoys from various countries.
Upon seeing the envoy from the State of Chen, Chen Siyuan thought of Ruoli, whom she had not seen for a long time.
Thinking and watching, she seemed to be just a passerby in the bustling scene before her.
Thinking to myself, on such an important day, I hope nothing goes wrong, otherwise things will get messy.
Besides, the usual infighting always happens in the shadows. Today, with the Emperor and envoys from various countries present, anyone who dares to cause trouble is courting death!
But amidst the peaceful atmosphere, a sudden, jarring sound broke the silence.
Bang--
The tenth prince, who was sitting in his seat, suddenly collapsed to the ground, spitting out black blood.
The Eighth Prince, who was standing nearby, stood up and shouted, "It's poisonous!"
Those two words instantly caused an uproar.
What should have been unpleasant conversations behind closed doors has now been brought into the open, which is practically suicidal.
Chen Siyuan lowered her head, thinking that the Eighth Prince was quite ignorant.
Even if it is true that someone is poisoned, if they take it out before anyone else knows, at least they won't lose face in front of the various countries.
Now... it's over.
Just as Chen Siyuan was thinking that the Eighth Prince was being too irrational, her hand was suddenly grabbed tightly. She turned her head and saw Qiao Yuchen's abnormal expression.
Then she met the gaze of the Eighth Prince, who happened to glance over unintentionally, and her heart skipped a beat.
This is aimed at Qiao Yuchen.
Chen Siyuan didn't know what was going on, but it was clearly not a good thing.
My heart was pounding as I wondered how I should face the situation next.
From the moment they returned from Huzhou, subsequent events made Chen Siyuan realize that the source of everything pointed to the Eighth Prince, and that the Eighth Prince was doing it on purpose.
He shouldn't have done that.
The Eighth Prince is doomed to die today; he intends to take others down with him.
Damn it!
"It's alright, don't worry. Go find your father and mother later, they will protect you."
"And you?" Now that things had come to this point, Chen Siyuan understood perfectly well what was going on; she was just worried.
The Eighth Prince has gone mad. Are we going to let Qiao Yuchen go mad too?
The Third Prince's faction, however, is a different story.
Seeing the Eighth Prince suddenly make a move and join forces with the Tenth Prince, I immediately felt that there was going to be a show to watch today.
Tao Yifan sat in his seat, staring at his surroundings.
He didn't care whether Qiao Yuchen lived or died; what he was worried about was whether Chen Siyuan would be implicated.
Thinking about it, his gaze fell on the emperor sitting on the throne.
Everything is happening under everyone's watchful eyes today. I wonder what the Emperor will do?
He was also because Song Ji had stolen Chen Siyuan and then sent the information to him.
It seems to have reconnected with that matter.
Song Ji used to be his servant, but now they have a cooperative relationship.
Thinking about it, my heart started pounding.
Just then, people from the West Depot appeared, and he immediately recognized Song Ji as the one with the small amount.
My previously uneasy heart calmed down at this moment.
Song Ji led the men from the Western Depot directly to the Tenth Prince, picked him up, and left.
Physician Huang and the others immediately got up and left.
Seeing this, the Eighth Prince, who hadn't made a fuss, became unwilling to accept it.
He knelt down before the emperor with a thud, raised his head and shouted, "Father, someone has poisoned me!"
We can let what just happened go, but we can't just let this go like that.
These words instantly changed the expressions of everyone present.
Everyone was stunned.
The Eighth Prince's reckless behavior should have its limits.
What is he doing?
Some people used to sympathize with the Eighth Prince, but now they wish he would die soon.
What kind of occasion is this? Your continued commotion is only making the Shang Kingdom lose face.
The Emperor finally looked at the Eighth Prince, but instead of the anger that everyone had expected, he simply looked at the Eighth Prince and said nothing.
Chen Siyuan looked at the Eighth Prince, who kept causing trouble for the Emperor. Had he gone mad?
He's about to die, yet he drags so many others down with him; he deserves to die.
Thinking about it, he glanced at the princes present.
The emperor originally didn't have many sons, but now the tenth prince has just been carried off the throne, and the fourth prince is also dying.
The eldest and second princes died unexpectedly when they were young.
Only a few are still alive now.
Looking at the angry Third Prince sitting there and the calm Seventh Prince, the difference between the two was immediately apparent.
Regardless of their private relationship, the Eighth Prince's actions at this time should have caused anger if one still had a sense of justice. However, the Seventh Prince's composure was completely inappropriate.
The man beside her seemed to know what Chen Siyuan was thinking, and he held her hand tightly, encouraging her.
"Father, I have something to say."
The Eighth Prince kept challenging others' bottom lines from the moment he opened his mouth.
"Speak," the Emperor finally said, his voice devoid of emotion.
It seems that after experiencing major events and gaining experience, he no longer cares about trivial matters.
It also seems that they are utterly disappointed in people and no longer care about them.
"Father, the young general poisoned my tenth brother." The eighth prince said, taking a handkerchief from his sleeve.
The Emperor stared coldly at his son, who had disappointed him greatly, without saying a word, and gestured for Eunuch Huang beside him to come over.
