For this matter, Yinqi specially called Prince Yong, Jiu Beile, Ten Beile and Fourteen Beile to visit Prince Heng's Mansion to discuss a countermeasure.
Wanyue, the fifth sister-in-law, was naturally indispensable. All kinds of pastries filled the flower hall, and several Belles came.
It's just that no one present can sit still, obviously they all have their own concerns.
Ten Beile was the first to lose his composure and spoke first: "Fifth brother called us here today, but because of the prince's dethronement?"
Hearing this, several other people's thoughts fluctuated slightly. Some were planning secretly, while others were watching indifferently. Ten Beile had always been outspoken. When Yinqi heard what he said, he frowned slightly.
Yinqi looked at everyone and then said slowly: "I called a few brothers here today. One is for a small gathering, but I want to tell some truth to them."
Jiu Beile has an out-of-the-box personality and is the most forthright. He immediately responded: "Fifth brother, just tell me what you want! Is there anything else we brothers have to hide?"
Prince Yong glanced at Jiu Beile, and then echoed: "Ninth brother is absolutely right, fifth brother can just get straight to the point."
Although Fourteen Baylor is more stable, he is still young after all. After all three brothers expressed their opinions, he couldn't help but said: "Yes, fifth brother, just say it. All of us brothers are all ears."
As soon as Fourteen Baylor finished speaking, Wanyue personally brought tea and came over, saying softly: "I'm late, I kept you waiting for a long time."
"Fifth sister-in-law, you're welcome."
"Yes, Fifth Sister, please sit down quickly." Several princes said in unison.
Wanyue smiled, put the tea on the table, and then sat down next to Yinqi.
Yinqi picked up the lid of the cup and gently played with the tea leaves, then took a small sip before slowly telling the reason why he summoned all the brothers: "I know that you are all very concerned about the prince's dethronement.
Now some people in the court have even made ridiculous claims that Emperor Ama intends me and my eighth brother to be the next candidates for the position of crown prince. In fact, I have no intention at all for the position of crown prince."
What Yinqi said was so powerful that the other princes looked at him sideways.
"Yes, the prince and I only hope for a smooth life, and we don't dare to hope for anything else." Wanyue sat next to her, looked around for a while, and after seeing the reactions of all the royal brothers, she softly responded.
Hearing this, Jiu Beile glanced sideways at Prince Yong, then turned his head and said to everyone: "It is an honor for us that Fifth Brother and Fifth Sister-in-law can be so open-minded."
Prince Yong also breathed a sigh of relief, but he should not be too anxious at this time, lest the emperor would be too suspicious of him and the throne. After hearing what Yinqi, Wanyue, and Jiu Beile said, Prince Yong just narrowed his eyes and looked at Ten Beile.
A look at Fourteen Baylor.
Apparently he also wanted to see what the two of them had to say. When Ten Baylor saw Nine Baylor finished speaking, he also expressed his opinion directly.
"Brother Ninth is right. My fifth brother and my sister-in-law have the same idea on this point. Neither of us is interested in the throne."
The fourteenth Baylor had a shocked expression on his face. Although he didn't have much contact with Yinqi, he suspected in his heart that the struggle for the throne had never disappeared in the past dynasties. The fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law were willing to give up on their own initiative, which made him feel a little difficult.
Confidence.
After a moment, he smiled slightly at Yinqi and Wanyue and said: "It is reasonable for the fifth brother and the fifth sister-in-law to think so. After all, I don't think the throne is that easy. It is more comfortable to be a free and leisure prince."
Wanyue's heart paused and she looked at the Fourteenth Belle. For just a moment, her mind flashed back to the overt and covert fight between the Fourteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Belle in the late period of the Nine Sons' succession in the past life. However, in the end, the Fourteenth Belle because of
He fought in the northwest and missed the fight for the throne.
Thinking of this, Wanyue's expression was startled for a moment, but soon returned to normal. She took a deep breath before speaking again: "Ninth brother, tenth brother, fourteenth brother, you fifth brother and I also just want to be safe and sound.
In the future, as for the throne, the eighth brother is more suitable."
Prince Yong, who had been silent all this time, was somewhat entranced as he listened to the words of several people, and the expression on his face looked very calm.
After a long while, Prince Yong lowered his head and said with a sigh: "Everything depends on the emperor's decree. Now that Huang Ama is still in his prime, I don't think the new crown prince's position was established so early.
"
Prince Yong spoke extremely calmly, and several people in the room understood the meaning of his words and couldn't help but look at each other.
Yinqi raised his eyebrows slightly, with a faint smile on his lips, "Who can guess what Huang Ama is thinking?"
Upon hearing this, Wanyue lowered her eyes to cover up the light in her eyes.
Several princes also made a tacit agreement not to mention this matter again.
There was a brief silence in the room, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Jiu Beile was the first to speak: "Fifth brother, in this case, let's not talk about this troublesome matter."
Fourteen Baylor nodded after hearing this: "That's right, let's drink and eat!"
After saying that, Wanyue hurriedly winked at Ying'er, Yuewen and others who were waiting in the room, asking them to serve the dishes quickly.
They are all princes, so delicacies are indispensable on the dinner table.
Several people chatted while eating, and the meal was harmonious.
After lunch, after Prince Yong and several Belles had left, Yinqi took Wanyue into the back room of Xinuang Pavilion. As soon as he entered the room, he asked mysteriously: "Yue'er, what do you think of this?"
Should we go to the palace and report it directly to Emperor Ama, or should we let it develop?"
Wanyue glanced at Yiqi and said thoughtfully: "Since the prince has no ambitions for the throne, I think it would be better to inform the emperor, so that the ministers in the court will naturally know that the prince has no ambition for the throne, and we can get rid of it as soon as possible.
The struggle for the throne brings you trouble."
Yinqi nodded after hearing this, stretched out his hand to hold Wanyue's hands, and agreed: "Yue'er, you are right. I will explain this matter to Huang Ama when I enter the palace tomorrow."
Early the next morning, after Yinqi entered the palace to attend the court meeting, he went straight to the Yangxin Hall to ask for an audience with the emperor.
The emperor was currently reviewing the memorial in Yangxin Hall. After hearing the announcement, he signaled Liang Jiugong to come to Xuan Yinqi.
After Yinqi saluted, the emperor asked him to stand up, and then asked: "Lao Wu, what happened to you when you came to me?"
Yinqi raised his head and looked at the stern and majestic emperor behind the dragon case, raised his hands and replied: "I would like to report to the emperor, I do have something to tell the emperor."
The emperor frowned slightly when he heard this. After pondering for a while, he said, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Yes, Emperor Ama." Yinzhen replied respectfully, "My son heard rumors that there was a new crown prince in the court recently, but it was ridiculous to say that the candidate was between my eighth brother and my eighth brother. I was actually a little scared when I found out.
, so I want to report this matter to my father, but I really have no intention of becoming the crown prince."
The emperor was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Unexpectedly, Yinqi took the initiative to say that he had no intention of taking the throne, which made the emperor feel very surprised.
