No one expected Emperor Xuanwu to ask such a question. Yuan Rui was obviously stunned for a moment and then he knelt on the ground.

"He dared to commit the following crime. His crime is extremely heinous and he deserves death."

Emperor Xuanwu looked coldly at Yuan Rui who was kneeling there, not knowing what he was thinking.

Last night, he saw hatred in his eldest son's eyes that he had never seen before.

If this is the case for the eldest son, then what about the second son who was born to a maid?

Doesn't he have any resentment?

After a long time, Emperor Xuanwu withdrew his gaze, and Yuanrui let out a sigh of relief.

A dark gleam flashed across his eyes.

Although this incident has nothing to do with him, his father is very wary of him because of that idiot Yuan Xu.

It will be even more difficult for him to take action in the future.

The morning court session that day lasted a long time, as Yuan Xu's rebellion involved too many people.

The court officials were trembling with fear. They knew that the bloodbath was not over yet and there would be endless bloodshed in the vegetable market in the next few days.

Just when everyone was thinking this, Emperor Xuanwu issued another decree.

"Prince Ning Yuan Jue has been rewarded for saving the emperor, so he will be promoted to Crown Prince. After his injury is healed, he will begin to supervise the country."

After dropping this heavy blow, Emperor Xuanwu stood up and left. As he left, he stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Eunuch Huang reacted in time and pulled him back.

Emperor Xuanwu's expression became increasingly ugly.

It was just one night of sleeplessness, but he was already like this.

Sure enough, even if he didn't admit it, he was indeed old.

Emperor Xuanwu left with a lot on his mind, completely ignoring the bombshell he had dropped.

Yuan Rui slowly stood up and watched his father leaving, his eyes full of resentment.

Sure enough, once a person's heart is crooked, it can never go back to normal.

He sneered.

Over there, Su Qingwan also did not sleep all night, and she paced back and forth anxiously.

Although she knew that the rebellion in the palace had been quelled, she could not feel at peace until she saw Yan Mingjue for a day.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Jingzhe became alert, but after listening for a while, he put down the sword again.

"Princess, they are one of us."

As soon as the door opened, Yan Mingjue walked in.

When Su Qingwan saw Yan Mingjue, a hint of joy flashed across her eyes and she walked over quickly.

Just as she was about to hug him, she suddenly smelled a slight smell of blood and medicine. She frowned.

"You are hurt?"

"It's just a minor injury. I just scratched my arm."

Yan Mingjue spoke.

In fact, he didn't need to get hurt, but he still chose to let himself get a minor injury. This way, Emperor Xuanwu's guilt would reach its peak. Moreover, he could also take a good rest for a few days and spend more time with Su Qingwan.

He knew that he would become increasingly busier in the future, and would have fewer and fewer days to spend with Su Qingwan, so he especially cherished the present.

Su Qingwan didn't believe him, so she pulled him into the room and took off his clothes. She made sure that only his arm was injured, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why not be more careful?"

She said reproachfully.

Yan Ming didn't explain, he just raised his hand and touched her cheek.

"Have you been scared these days?"

Su Qingwan nodded in agreement.

"I suddenly heard that you were arrested, and I was completely panicked."

"The emperor made up his mind at the last minute, and I didn't know until I went there."

Yan Mingjue explained.

Su Qingwan didn't blame him, she had already guessed it.

Yan Mingjue played with her fingers and said:

"Just now, the emperor issued an imperial decree to make me the crown prince."
