The waiting time is always long. Lin Yichen barely slept a wink all night. He lay in bed and thought about everything that happened during this period. Lin Yichen still felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about poisoning Lin Yunlong.
After surviving the night with self-struggle, Lin Yichen had already changed his clothes and sat in the room before the slave could get up the next day.
Similar to Lin Yichen, Lin Yunlong also had a difficult night. The sky became brighter, and Lin Yunlong automatically opened his eyes. Waking up at this time every day has become a habit. He was the only one on the large bed. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the women in the harem. Even the queen, whom I met more often, Lin Yunlong hasn’t touched her for a long time.
Women have never been a necessity for Lin Yunlong. There are still many women in the harem that Lin Yunlong has never seen, and among the princes in the palace, the youngest one should be two years old, right?
Many past events appeared in Lin Yunlong's mind, and he kept thinking about it until Liu Lei appeared in the room and reminded him that it was time to have breakfast, drink medicine, and go to court.
Lin Yunlong turned his head to look at the old slave who had been running around beside him, and asked in a low voice: "In all these years, have you ever had the thought of betraying me?"
Liu Lei was cleaning up the remaining candles on the table. He was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Yunlong's question. Then he faced Lin Yunlong directly and replied: "I don't dare."
"Are you afraid, or are you not?"
"I don't dare, and I don't." Liu Lei's answer was without any hesitation. Regardless of whether it was true or false, at this time, Lin Yunlong was still pleased to hear such words. "Perhaps the emperor, in the eyes of all the princes,
He is not a good father. But in the eyes of the slaves, the emperor is a good emperor."
Lin Yunlong smiled silently, nodded and let Liu Lei go out. After preparing everything, it was time for the morning court. Lin Yunlong sat in the main hall with an unusually solemn mood, looking at the rows of people standing below. He had already
After looking at the familiar face for a long time, Lin Yunlong was rarely distracted.
"Your Majesty?" Lu Yuanzheng called Lin Yunlong twice, but did not see any reaction from Lin Yunlong. The ministers below looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what was going on. Fortunately, Lin Yunlong was soon
Lu Yuanzheng's voice broke his thoughts.
"Keep talking, listen." Lin Yunlong spoke in a low voice. After all the ministers finished talking about what they were about to report, Lin Yunlong let out a long sigh.
"I have something to announce today." Lin Yunlong's words made many people tense up. His gaze faintly swept over some people, who were all eager for Lin Yichen to become the emperor. "
In the past few days, I have clearly felt that my health is not as good as before. My loved ones have reminded me more than once that it is time to establish a prince to take care of the future. Although I am not happy to hear this, after all
I feel that I am not old enough yet to make plans for what will happen after my death. But when I think about it today, your worries are understandable. In the past, I had my eye on the fourth prince, but it is a pity that he did not have this blessing.
After so many days of consideration, I have decided to appoint another crown prince today."
"Your Majesty is in good health and there is no need to rush this matter."
Immediately, someone from the Eighth Prince's faction stood up, fearing that what Lin Yunlong said would be the prince's name.
"Master Ye, do you dare to disobey the emperor's decree?"
The prince's people looked sideways at Ye Zhihua who made the noise. He used to be the prince's confidant, but now he is standing on the eighth prince's boat. Why are they afraid of the emperor announcing the heir apparent? The reason is obvious, right?
The ministers immediately started talking. Lin Yunlong calmly listened to every argument below and looked at everyone's face seriously. When these people realized something was wrong and stopped and looked at him, Lin Yunlong
He smiled meaningfully and stood up.
"The prince will not be the prince I choose." Lin Yunlong said in a cold voice: "Half of the mistakes Nangong Lingfeng made at the border were caused by the prince. The prince was also involved in colluding with the Qingming Kingdom.
.So starting from today, he is no longer the prince."
Lin Yunlong's words made many people take a breath, and also made people on Lin Yinan's side feel a little better.
"Without evidence, I will naturally not talk nonsense. If you want to plead for these two people, you should also weigh your own weight first and think about whether you have done anything that I shouldn't have done in a place that I don't know about.
.If so, don’t worry, I have plenty of time to settle accounts with you one by one. The country is peaceful and the people are safe, but all of you people have dark hearts. The people support you, and I support you! But look, all of them are
How have you been raised up like this?! Each one of you is getting more and more courageous, and you dare to blame me. Do you think that I am ignorant of everything outside in this palace? You all think that I am ignorant of everything outside.
My eyes are blind and my ears are deaf!"
Lin Yunlong's voice became louder little by little, and his emotions became more and more excited. It was not difficult to see that he was really angry, and the frightened ministers all knelt on the ground without daring to raise their heads.
Lift it up.
"The Seventh Prince, Prince Luo, is the heir apparent I want to choose." Lin Yunlong showed a sly smile after getting angry, "It's winter, and it's almost the end of the New Year. Don't worry, I will let you have a peaceful New Year.
"
After Lin Yunlong finished speaking, he left, leaving many astonished ministers kneeling there at a loss.
The crown prince was deposed and the eighth prince did not take the throne. The crown prince... turned out to be Prince Luo??
As soon as this news came out, no one would not be shocked. Including Lin Yichen and Lin Yinan.
Lin Yichen listened to the slave's report. He sat on the stool for a long time before he came back to his senses. "What did you say? Say it again!" Lin Yichen said through gritted teeth.
Lan Jinyang said in a low tone, "Prince, it's true."
"Bring me Lin Yixiang immediately!" Lin Yichen stood up and hurried to the door, but was blocked by people sent by the emperor.
"The Emperor has an order that the prince cannot go anywhere."
Nie Hai, who returned to the palace, did not expect that meeting Lin Yichen again would be like this. Lin Yichen looked a little young and wanted to laugh, "Do you think you can stop me?"
"It's not the slave who wants to stop it, it's the Emperor."
Nie Hai's answer was very skillful and made Lin Yichen even more angry. In anger, he decisively attacked Nie Hai. Nie Hai did not dare to fight with him, so he had to retreat. But seeing Lin Yichen approaching step by step, he almost wanted to kill him.
This meant that Nie Hai had no choice but to take action to protect himself.
"Prince, stop fighting." Nie Hai jumped onto the wall. "Disobeying the emperor's order will only make things worse."
Nie Hai, who had just become the number one martial artist, had a look of helplessness on his face. He came here to fight the enemy, not his own people.
Lin Yunlong arranged for many people to come over and surrounded the Prince's Palace inside and outside. Such a large battle could not be completed in an instant. The only explanation is that Lin Yunlong had already planned to deal with it like this
By myself.
Lin Yichen quickly calmed down and glanced at Nie Hai on the wall. Lin Yichen stopped and went back to the room and said to his confidants: "No matter what, contact Luo Yuncheng and go find out the matter for me!"
As long as Lin Yunlong's poison is not cured, there is still hope for him. Lin Yichen told himself that he could not mess up the rules here.
In the Eighth Emperor's Palace, Ling Yi and Lan Ruoling stood nervously in front of Lin Yinan, looking at him intently, waiting for his answer.
"Master, what on earth is going on?"
"Huh? I don't know." Lin Yinan looked innocent, "I didn't expect things to turn out like this. But..."
Lin Yinan didn't say what he said next, but Lin Yixiang had always stared at the throne and never thought of giving up. He had known this for a long time.
"Why are you so anxious? It's not like there was no crown prince before, and it was nothing in the end?" Lin Yinan was puzzled, but not as anxious as these people. "There are people who want to know the truth of the matter more than us. You just have to keep an eye on it.
That’ll be fine.”
After sending these two people away, Lin Yinan added some clothes and walked out of the room. In the quiet courtyard, he always felt that something was missing. He hadn't heard that person's laughter for a long time, so Lin Yinan took a deep breath and strode forward.
Right now, there is nothing more important than finding her.
In Prince Luo's Mansion, Nangong Nuoer was immediately stunned after hearing the news. He rushed to Lin Yixiang's study to look for someone, but he was not there. After searching the entire palace, there was no trace of Lin Yixiang.
When Lu Zhiqing saw Nangong Nuo'er looking for someone everywhere, she asked with a smile: "Are you because you can't believe this good news, so you rush to the prince to confirm it?"
The fact that everyone found her was enough to show how anxious Nangong Nuoer was.
Nangong Nuo'er was not in the mood or time to waste on Lu Zhiqing, so he just let her indulge in her addiction and wait to deal with her later. Lu Zhiqing couldn't help but smile when she looked at Nangong Nuo'er's retreating back.
People on the ground were panicked because of the emperor's words. Lu Zhiyao underground lived a relatively carefree life because he didn't know anything. But no matter how comfortable the life was, it would be a little uncomfortable to stay underground all the time. Lu Zhiyao every day
All she could do was walk around in the few rooms, and she had to be careful not to break anything. Because Lin Yunlong asked his servant to tell her that if anything here was damaged, he would take it from the Eight Emperors
Found it in the house.
"He Lao, the emperor has issued an order."
Lu Zhiyao slowed down and tried hard to listen to the faint conversation coming from the room in front.
"The crown prince was deposed and Prince Luo became the crown prince. The news came early in the morning. It is definitely true."
Lu Zhiyao heard these two sentences intermittently, and she wondered if she heard it wrong. During her absence, what happened outside...?!
