There are not many kings with different surnames in Cangfeng country.
Considering Lin Che's age, being crowned king was beyond everyone's expectations.
What's more, they are both kings side by side, which is even more shocking!
You must know that the word "One Word King" literally means a person whose status is comparable to that of the emperor.
They are the highest among the nobles of the Blue Wind King, and their status is even higher than that of the prince.
And in the thousand-year history of Blue Wind Kingdom, no one has ever been able to obtain this title.
So after hearing the words of Lord Cangfeng, the whole hall became silent.
"Why, do you have any objections from your beloved ministers?" Lord Blue Wind glanced around the hall before he asked.
His words seemed to be asking for the opinions of the ministers, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
None of the ministers in the palace who had been in the officialdom for many years immediately understood what the Lord of Blue Wind meant.
So they all agreed: "Scholar Lin has made such great contributions to the Blue Wind Kingdom, and it is fitting that he should be so appreciated by Your Majesty. Naturally, I have no objections."
"Wait a minute... I'm telling my father, I think this is inappropriate."
However, at this moment, a discordant sound came from within the hall.
Immediately afterwards, he saw the figure of the eldest prince standing out from the crowd and said: "Although Lin Che has some talent, she is still young and has little qualifications. If she is named the one-word king, it will be difficult to convince everyone."
"Yes, if Lin Che is granted the title of king at such a young age, she will definitely take the credit and be arrogant. She will become a very popular minister at such a young age, and she will become ambitious in the future... I also feel that my father's decision is too hasty."
After the eldest prince, the second prince also stood up and refuted without hesitation.
Now that they understand that Lin Che cannot be used by themselves, for the two of them, the higher Lin Che climbs now, the more likely it is that she will be an obstacle to them.
So of course they will strongly oppose this decision.
"this……"
At this time, seeing the two princes standing up to object, a look of surprise flashed across the faces of the officials present.
The reason is very simple. As far as they know, the eldest prince and the second prince are secretly fighting for the throne. It can be said that they are at war with each other.
But now, for the first time, they stand on the same side.
This... is really unexpected.
After the two princes opened their mouths, the officials all wisely chose to remain silent.
As the second prince said, given Lin Che's age, if she were to be crowned king, she would climb too fast.
After becoming a very popular minister, if he develops ambitions, he is likely to pose a threat to the imperial power.
With such a big hat off, if any minister tried to express his approval to Lin Che at this time, it would be the same as seeking death.
It can be seen from this that the words of these two princes were quite cruel.
He deliberately wanted the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom to be suspicious of Lin Che.
However, at this moment, the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom glanced at the two princes.
A slight sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I don't know whether Lin Guoshi will seek power and usurp the throne in the future. However, I know very well in my heart that there must be some people here who are looking forward to my death and getting involved in the throne."
Wow——
As soon as the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom said this, all the officials present fell silent, and their expressions became extremely horrified.
Because the words of Lord Blue Wind were too lethal.
Almost in the blink of an eye, all the ministers present knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty is aware that I will swear allegiance to the Blue Wind Kingdom to the death and will never dare to harbor any dissent."
At this moment, the eldest prince and the second prince were stunned on the spot as if struck by lightning.
They never imagined that just because they opposed Lin Che's title of king, they would actually elicit such words from the Lord of Blue Wind.
Thinking of the extremely cold attitude towards the two of them after the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom came back this time.
The two princes suddenly felt cold sweat dripping down their backs, and had an ominous premonition.
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom shook his head, "I have already made up my mind about Lin Che being crowned king. No one else needs to say anything... Let Lin Che be crowned king."
Hearing this, Lin Che quickly bowed and saluted, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Looking at him, Lord Blue Wind nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, considering Lin Che's contribution to the Blue Wind Kingdom, it is indeed too early to directly grant him the title of king.
If someone else were to take the position of extremely popular minister at such a young age, there would indeed be the possibility of growing ambitions and threatening the imperial power in the future.
But for Lin Che, the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom was not worried at all.
Because soon, Lin Che will go to China, China.
With his potential, he will definitely soar into the sky after entering that wider world.
Maybe it won't be long before the entire Blue Wind Kingdom will be nothing in his eyes, so why worry about him coveting a small Blue Wind Kingdom?
Therefore, at this moment, in the heart of the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom, although he personally canonized Lin Che as the one-word king, it was by no means a gift from him to Lin Che.
But to please.
For the entire Blue Wind Kingdom, Lin Che is the biggest supporter now.
Just like when they were in the Yanlong Sect, why were the top forces so polite to the Blue Wind Kingdom?
Isn't it because they all know that Lin Che is about to enter the Four Symbols Palace and has unlimited potential in the future.
As long as the relationship between Lin Che and Blue Wind Country does not waver.
So with this backing, even if the Blue Wind Kingdom declines again, no force in the Northern Wasteland would dare to easily provoke it.
The eldest prince and the third prince could not even see this level, and even regarded Lin Che as an imaginary enemy and a threat...
Such shallow knowledge undoubtedly made the leader of the Blue Wind Kingdom completely disappointed with the performance of his two sons.
If these two people were to ascend to a high position and come to oppose Lin Che, it would be a disaster for the Blue Wind Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Lord Blue Wind also gave up the last trace of hesitation in his heart.
He said: "In addition to Lin Che's canonization as king, I have something more important to announce..."
After hearing this, everyone looked attentively and listened to the holy teachings.
At this time, the Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom said: "My health has been deteriorating over the years, and I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for much longer. It's time to establish a heir apparent."
Hearing this, all the ministers were shocked.
Judging from the look on the Blue Wind Kingdom Lord's face, what he just said was definitely not a joke.
But we really want to announce the crown prince, and today.
When everyone's expressions were complicated, the voice of Lord Blue Wind sounded again.
Just listen to him say: "I have decided to appoint my daughter, the third princess of Blue Wind Kingdom, as the next Blue Wind Emperor, and she will ascend the throne at a certain date."
"Wow——"
The Lord of Blue Wind's words immediately caused an uproar.
All the ministers in the hall were stunned and stood there for a long time without reacting.
Make the third princess of the dynasty the crown prince!
Hearing these words, the eldest prince and the second prince took a few steps back unconsciously, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"this……"
"As a woman, Third Sister, how can she inherit the throne... No, this can't be true..."
"Father, you must be joking, right?"
"I'm not joking." Regarding this, the Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom said with certainty.
"Father...father..."
The two of them wanted to say something more.
But at this moment, the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom directly said: "Shut up!"
"It is not your turn to question the decision I have made!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom said directly to a eunuch with a palm seal behind him: "What I said today is a decree to be announced to the world. From now on, all the princes in the palace will move away from the imperial capital and be divided into four areas."
"yes!"
According to Blue Wind Kingdom's ancestral rules, after the crown prince is appointed, all princes will be canonized to remote places.
Being far away from the imperial capital also means being far away from the center of power.
The overall situation has been decided.
The eldest prince and the second prince were still dreaming of ascending the throne and becoming emperor, but at this moment, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured on their heads.
It also made the two of them completely despair.
At this time, the Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom did not look at the two of them again, but said: "If there is nothing wrong with you, please retreat from the court."
"Wan'er, Lin Che, you two come with me..."
After saying these words, the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom directly stood up from the dragon chair and walked out.
Seeing this, the ministers hurriedly said: "I will send you off to your majesty respectfully!"
It wasn't until the emperor's figure disappeared from this place that the ministers felt that the invisible pressure had dissipated, and they couldn't help but feel relieved.
In fact, ever since the leader of the Blue Wind Kingdom became ill, he rarely went to court in recent years, and most of the state affairs were left to the ministers to discuss and complete.
As time goes by, it is easy to forget the majesty of this supreme being.
But today, what Lord Blue Wind showed was undoubtedly informing everyone.
Even though he has no longer interfered with the affairs of the court these years, in fact, he has always been in control of everything secretly.
Thinking of this, the ministers became trembling with fear again.
…
In a side hall.
After the Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom brought Lin Che and the two here, he ordered them to be seated.
Then he looked at Li Qingwan and said, "Wan'er, I will unload this heavy burden on my shoulders from now on. Are you ready?"
Li Qingwan said seriously: "I am still too young now and need to learn more from my father. However, my father announced the crown prince so early. I am afraid that I am young and ignorant and will live up to my father's expectations."
"No...I believe you can do it well."
The Lord of Blue Wind Kingdom sighed slightly, "I know that by making you the crown prince at this time, you will be under unimaginable pressure. However, my body is deteriorating and I am afraid that I will not be able to sustain it for long... Now that the matter has come to this, I can only do what I have to do.
That’s the decision.”
"Father..." A trace of sadness appeared on Li Qingwan's face.
In fact, after returning from Yanlong Sect this time, she could tell that her father's health seemed to be even worse.
As he said, if this continues, I'm afraid I really won't be able to hold on for long.
"Well, you don't have to be sad. Life, old age, sickness and death, and human destiny, are nothing to worry about."
"Besides, I can see the hope of Blue Wind Kingdom from you two. Even if you die now, I won't have any regrets."
Having said this, the Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom hesitated for a moment and said: "Wan'er, although I have appointed you as the crown prince this time, I hope that you can put aside the past grudges in the future and not kill your eldest and second brothers after my death.
Let them stay away from power and live the rest of their lives."
Although the Lord of the Blue Wind Kingdom was disappointed with the two eldest princes, he did not want to see his bloodline fight against each other in the future.
Hearing this, Li Qingwan solemnly said: "I understand!"
At this time, the Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom said again: "As for the courtiers these two have attracted over the years, I also hope that you will not act out of impulse and think carefully."
Li Qingwan nodded, "Father, don't worry, the overall situation has been decided now. Although those ministers were hesitant before, most of them were forced by the situation. My ministers are not that stupid. They will not be too involved in the previous events and shake me."
Wind-based.”
The Lord of Cangfeng Kingdom smiled happily, "Okay, I was indeed right. You can see further than your two royal brothers, and you also know that the overall situation is the most important thing."
Throughout history, many people in power, once they came to power, massacred the party members who had previously opposed them.
But in fact, with the current state of Blue Wind Country, if there is a large-scale reshuffle, it will inevitably cause violent turmoil.
Li Qingwan was able to see this aspect, which made the Lord of Blue Wind appreciate it even more.
From this point of view, my daughter is far superior to her two brothers in terms of personality and vision, and is more suitable to be the leader of this country.
"Okay, I have something to discuss with Lin Che alone. You can go down first."
"Yes, Father."
Hearing this, Li Qingwan bowed respectfully and then withdrew.
In the main hall, only the master of Blue Wind Kingdom and Lin Che were left.
