Wangtian Sect and Zhenyi Sect have been destroyed. The Second Prince and the Third Prince don't know about this yet. They are still preparing for the war in full swing.
It was not until the next day, when Yu Zhenghuang announced in the court that the matter was over and the four major sects had been destroyed, that the two of them were dumbfounded.
"Father, how is this possible?
How could Wangtian Sect and Zhenyi Sect be destroyed? They should be outside the capital at the moment."
Yu Mengyi said with difficulty.
"I and Lao Qi's people destroyed them together, do we still need to question it?
Taking advantage of today, I declare that the position of Crown Prince will be held by the Seventh Prince."
Yu Zhenghuang said bluntly, without giving others a chance to speak, and just decided on the candidate for the position of prince.
Everyone in the court was stunned. When they realized it, those who supported the Seventh Prince were naturally overjoyed.
The ministers who supported the second and third princes could not accept it.
"Your Majesty, the position of the Crown Prince is related to the country. I suggest that Your Majesty carefully consider it before making a decision. Although the Seventh Prince has made great contributions in wiping out the four sects this time, we still need to test the Seventh Prince. This is a normal process."
A minister who supported the second prince stood up and said loudly.
Immediately afterwards, some more ministers stood up and seconded the proposal.
Yu Mengyi reacted and became even more anxious. This was too sudden for him. He thought that a war was going to start today. Who would have thought that the war was over before it even started. The four major sects were all destroyed.
The prince's men were defeated, and now the crown prince's position also fell into the hands of the seventh prince. This was unacceptable to Yu Mengyi, who had just received the support of the second prince.
"There is no need to discuss this matter. I have made up my mind. When the Seventh Prince leads his men to wipe out all the old nests of the four sects, and when he comes back, I will immediately prepare for the Seventh Prince's crown prince's succession ceremony."
Yu Zhenghuang said.
Seeing Yu Zhenghuang's determination, the ministers who supported the second and third princes were shaken, but now they had no choice. The second and third princes kept giving them winks, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak again.
"Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince offended Your Majesty for a lowly woman from a low-level continent. If Your Majesty passes the crown prince's position to the Seventh Prince today, wouldn't that humble woman become the Crown Princess? This is the case in the Feiyu Empire.
There is absolutely no precedent. The Crown Princess will be the Queen in the future, and the mother of the world, how can it be possible for a lowly person from a low-level continent to hold the position?"
One minister said.
"I second the proposal."
"I second the proposal."
All the ministers quickly seconded the proposal.
Yu Xuanchen and Yu Mengyi watched from the sidelines without speaking.
Yu Zhenghuang frowned. He had known for a long time that if this problem was not solved, it would become a big problem.
There was no other way, Yu Zhenghuang could only look at Yu Linfeng.
"Lao Qi, what do you have to say about this matter?"
Naturally, Yu Zhenghuang did not want Hua Qiantong to become the crown princess.
"Father, I don't have anything to say. I don't think people from lower continents are despicable people. Qian Tong is my wife, I am the prince, and she is the princess. There is nothing to question, and that's right.
It cannot be changed.”
Yu Linfeng said seriously.
"Old Seventh, what the ministers said is not unreasonable. My father will not embarrass you. Let's do this. My father will choose a crown princess for you and let Hua Qantong be your concubine. After all, she comes from a lowly family.
In Waiting Continent, our Feiyu Kingdom’s Crown Princess, a woman without any background will definitely not be able to take on the role, and this will definitely not convince the public.”
Yu Zhenghuang said.
Hearing Yu Zhenghuang's words, the expressions of the second prince and the third prince changed. They did not expect that their always stern father would become so easy to talk to. If Lao Qi really agreed to let Hua Qiantong be his concubine, wouldn't there be no reason to break it?
It’s the seventh child.
The second prince and the third prince were about to speak, but Yu Linfeng spoke first and said very decisively: "Father, who said Qian Tong is a person without background? Mr. Mo will help me this time just because Qian Tong, Qian Tong,
Tong’s aunt is Hua Nongying, the lord of Qionghua Palace.”
Yu Linfeng said.
Yu Zhenghuang was a little surprised. He didn't know this. Who would have thought that Hua Qiantong had such a powerful background?
Hua Qiantong and Hua Nongying both have the surname Hua. It seems that Hua Qiantong is really Hua Qiantong's biological aunt. Yu Zhenghuang knows that. Mr. Mo is the supreme elder of two sects, one of which is Qiong.
Flower Palace.
"So, that Qian Tong is indeed qualified to be the crown princess of our Feiyu Kingdom."
Yu Zhenghuang quickly changed his mind.
Yu Xuanchen, Yu Mengyi, and the ministers who supported them did not expect His Majesty to change his attitude so quickly. Yu Xuanchen and Yu Mengyi were still winking at the ministers, asking them to continue to stop them, but those ministers
But they are not stupid. It is obvious now that the seventh prince is destined to become the crown prince. If they continue to stop him, they are seeking death.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, I just made a mistake just because of the interests of Feiyu Kingdom. Now it seems that the Seventh Prince is the chosen one. There is no one else who can hold the position of Crown Prince. I support Your Majesty."
The seventh prince is kind and generous and has extraordinary talent. He will definitely lead Feiyu Kingdom to be more glorious in the future."
The minister who had been opposed just now immediately changed his tune and looked loyal.
The rest of the ministers also defected one after another. These ministers were very shrewd. Seeing that the Second Prince and the Third Prince were gone, they did not hesitate to draw a clear line with them, and all supported the Seventh Prince.
Yu Xuanchen and Yu Mengyi were dumbfounded. Suddenly, they were the only two people left in the entire court, without a single supporter around them.
Their eyes were full of unwillingness.
"Father..." Yu Mengyi wanted to speak, but just as he started, he was rudely interrupted by Yu Zhenghuang.
"This matter has been settled. Xuan Chen and Meng Yi, as brothers, you two will support your seventh brother more in the future, do you understand?"
Yu Zhenghuang said in a deep voice.
Although Yu Xuanchen and Yu Mengyi were extremely unwilling to give in, they also knew that nothing they could say now would be able to stop the development of the matter.
"My son knows."
Yu Xuanchen and Yu Mengyi lowered their heads and responded insincerely.
"Okay, then if you have nothing to do, just retire from the court, Lin Feng. After you retire from the court, you can come to the imperial study room."
