One has been hiding in secret for so many years, almost hidden from his eyes. Both Ximen Yin and Ximen Hen are capable. Ximen Yin is too scheming and vicious, and he is eager to plot the incident to murder the emperor. He has lost his ability.
The qualifications of an emperor.
And Ximen Hen...
He was able to save Zhi Qi, persuade Xi Men Yin, and fell in love with a woman like Leng Muran. He still kept Fang Jingjing in his heart.
"Uncle Emperor, you are gambling." Ximen Hen reminded Ximen Jingxuan.
"If I lose the bet, I will lose the Qingyuan Dynasty. If you want to die, let me lose." Ximen Jingxuan was not afraid at all.
In his eyes, this is a winning move.
Ximen Jingxuan was calm and at ease, while Ximen Hen's heart was tense.
It's not that Prince Xuan won't lose, it's that he can't disobey and let the world fall into his hands. He can't bear this responsibility.
But if he doesn't obey, Prince Xuan will definitely not let him go, and he will still not have a peaceful life. On the contrary, sitting in that high position will give him an extra layer of strength and autonomy.
After all, he won't be a puppet.
When Ximen Jingxuan selected him, he should have known that the person he was supporting would not be a puppet, and the regent would not exist as everyone thought.
"Uncle Emperor, don't you regret it?" Ximen Hen asked.
"I will never regret it." Ximen Jingxuan answered firmly.
"Okay, I agreed. I just want to be the master of the house." Ximen Hen also answered casually.
The ministers blinked, and the new emperor was just decided?
"Long live my emperor!"
Gu Qingcheng took the lead in paying homage and shouting.
With Prince Xuan in charge, the ministers should not object too much. Moreover, Prince Xuan is right. There are only three heirs of the Ximen family. If two of them do not become emperors, they will definitely be the remaining ones.
I am used to seeing life-and-death fights for the throne, and having to give in like this like a hot potato. Not only have I never heard of it, let alone seen it with my own eyes.
It seems that this can be considered a harmonious situation.
Ximen Hen smiled, walked towards the dragon throne in the middle, sat down with him, and clapped his hands.
Hula la, in the Showa Palace, several people on duty stood up and saluted Ximen Hen respectfully, "I would like to congratulate His Highness the Second Prince, long live my emperor!"
These are Ximen Hen's people in Zhaohe Palace. People like this are not a few in the palace, they are his eyes and ears.
Since he wants to sit in this position, he must bring out some greeting gifts for everyone to see, otherwise few people will take him as the second prince seriously.
Ximen Hen is also doing this to show Ximen Jingxuan that if he goes back on his word, it's still too late. Don't wait until he has secured the arrangements inside and outside the palace before taking action.
Ximen Jingxuan, on the other hand, stood aside indifferently, squinting at these people. If there were no people from Ximen Hen in the Showa Palace, he would be blind.
These people did not affect Ximen Jingxuan's attitude, but rather surprised the ministers.
Looking at Ximen Hen sitting on the dragon throne, wearing a blue shirt, less of a drunkard and more of a leader, some elderly ministers couldn't help but rub their eyes, why did they see the shadow of King Xiao?
"Long live my emperor!"
Following Gu Qingcheng, it was Lin Bo who shouted loudly.
He wanted to find a way out for Xia Yubing through Ximen Hen.
"The Zhaohe Palace will be handed over to the second prince, and I will go hunt down the assassins and deal with the Yuehua Kingdom's envoys." Ximen Jingxuan said.
"Uncle, wait a minute!"
As soon as Ximen Jingxuan walked to the entrance of Zhaohe Hall, Ximen Hen jumped up from the dragon throne, crossed over the ministers, and jumped in front of Ximen Jingxuan.
What a great skill! All the ministers couldn’t help but secretly praise him.
Whether Ximen Hen really wanted to pursue Prince Xuan or to show off in front of everyone, people really saw that he was extraordinary.
Sure enough, Prince Xuan's eyes were vicious, and they were all deceived by Ximen Hen's illusion.
Could it be that retreat is the strategy of the second prince? It is indeed much higher than the hypocrisy of the third prince.
"What else is there?" Ximen Jingxuan responded to Ximen Hen while striding out of the Zhaohe Hall.
"Uncle Huang..." Ximen Hen chased after Ximen Jingxuan.
"Haven't you already begun to express yourself? As long as you can keep the world of my Ximen family, it's up to you." Ximen Jingxuan slowed down a little.
"Isn't it true that I was forced by the emperor's uncle?" Ximen Hen looked like he was getting an advantage and still being obedient.
If he hadn't sat in that seat depending on the situation, how could he have tried his skills in front of the ministers?
He knew that Ximen Jingxuan didn't care about that seat. He was originally curious about who would do it if Ximen Che didn't do it, but he didn't expect that it would hit him on the head.
It is impossible to say that he has no interest in that position. He just knows that it is not easy to obtain or hold that position, so he does not fight for it.
Unexpectedly, that position was easily accessible to him, and he still couldn't figure out Prince Xuan.
"Even if I force you, you are the second prince. If you don't shoulder this important responsibility, will you have to let me, the late emperor's younger brother, work hard all your life?" Ximen Jingxuan's tone revealed a sense of grievance.
Ximen Hen was startled. Back then, the second king, the third king, and Xiaoyao Hou all lost their lives fighting for that position. Could it be that they were not Ximen Jinglie's younger brothers?
I am afraid only Prince Xuan can say these words.
"The throne is a good thing. If you can sit on it without fighting, I will naturally not refuse. But why is the emperor uncle?" Ximen Hen wanted to know what Ximen Jingxuan was thinking.
"In order to..." Ximen Jingxuan turned to look at Ximen Hen, and then said after a pause, "Since you call the late emperor father on the surface, as the second prince, it is also right for you to take on this responsibility. This is for you.
Wouldn’t it be safer?”
Ximen Jingxuan's rhetorical question left Ximen Hen speechless for a moment. He could tell that there was a different meaning in Ximen Jingxuan's words.
What is superficial and what is safer?
Only he would think of this when he knew that he was a fake prince.
"I am not a pedantic person. As long as the world is stable and there is no chaos, it will be worthwhile for my Ximen family to unify the world." After Ximen Jingxuan finished speaking, he turned around and continued walking forward.
Prince Xuan indeed knew a lot. Did he find out Ximen Yin's life experience from his investigation?
Ximen Hen trembled.
"Let go and be a good emperor. Use your skills to rule the world. Don't just play small tricks in private. I believe you have that ability." Ximen Jingxuan said as he walked away.
"Uncle Huang is more capable than me." Ximen Hen admitted.
"I don't want Xin'er to get involved in any troubles in the court and the world, and I don't want her to face the stubborn and pedantic difficulties in the court. With you as my candidate, I can stay away from it, so you should just
You must have acted as a stepping stone for me."
Regardless of whether Ximen Hen was interested in the throne intentionally or not, he pushed Ximen Hen to a high position. He did have some selfish motives.
