After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate

The two ministers who were kneeling bowed their heads, looked at each other, and kowtowed at the same time and replied:

"Your Majesty, please choose another heir and return peace and prosperity to the people of the world."

As soon as these words were spoken, more than a dozen ministers knelt down and called on the emperor to appoint another crown prince.

The emperor looked at the back of their heads, remembering every one of them who knelt.

He looked at them with interest, "What if I don't agree?"

The Crown Princess is now pregnant, so he is not afraid of the threats from these old gang members.

Zhao Lingzhou looked at the calm prince and the emperor and felt something was wrong.

If it were any other time, they would definitely be extremely upset and the prince would have jumped out to oppose, so why are they so calm today?

Although he had doubts in his heart, he had already spread the rumors and the ministers had made their attitude clear, so he could not back down.

Zhao Lingzhou put one hand behind his back and gestured to the kneeling ministers.

The ministers understood what was going on and began to attack the emperor and the prince in turns.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is now twenty-two years old. When Your Majesty was your age, the Third Prince was already born, but the Crown Prince still has no children."

"Now the people outside have been complaining for a long time. The drought in the past few years may be a punishment from the gods, Your Majesty!"

"I heard that several other countries have already started to make moves, saying that our Tianyuan country has a prince without an heir, and that the country will be destroyed in the future. Maybe they are already preparing to attack our Tianyuan country!"

Hearing these words, each one more unpleasant than the last, those who sided with the prince's party couldn't help but retort back.

"Offspring, offspring! You keep staring at the prince's offspring every day, but you don't even see his achievements!"

"That's right. If there is no child, you can adopt a royal son. Why do you have to depose the crown prince?"

"The eldest prince died at birth. The crown prince is the only legitimate son born to the queen. If you depose the crown prince, your plan to make a concubine's son the heir to the throne will fail!"

When the Third Prince heard the word "bastard", he clenched his hands under his court robes.

How ridiculous! So what if he's a bastard?

He is as capable as the crown prince and can govern the Tianyuan Kingdom. Why can't he become the crown prince!

Just because he was born by the queen, just because he is the legitimate son, he is superior to others? He doesn't accept it!

The third prince didn't say a word. His identity was awkward at the moment, so it was best not to stand up.

He sided with his ministers and continued to argue with the prince's party.

The ministers were talking to each other, secretly speaking in favor of the people they supported.

Gu Boqing's eyes were rolling around at this moment.

The current situation clearly shows that the Third Prince has the upper hand, and he also has to help his future son-in-law.

Gu Boqing took a step forward and said righteously:

"Adopted?! Are you kidding! Who are you talking about adopted?! Now the children from the side branch can all remember things. They grew up with their biological parents, so it's inevitable that they will side with their biological parents in the future."

"Adoption is absolutely unacceptable. It will definitely lead to chaos in the future! Your Majesty has many outstanding princes. You will definitely be able to choose someone who is virtuous, kind, and gentle! For example, someone like the Third Prince."

The third prince felt relieved to hear his future father-in-law speaking for him.

The ministers were arguing fiercely, and both sides were so angry that they were about to fight.

One of the ministers had his hat accidentally knocked off, and then the minister who hit his hat threw the jade-gold to the ground.

The atmosphere in the hall was tense and full of gunpowder.

The emperor saw this and felt that it was almost time. If a fight really broke out a little later, it would be too late.

He coughed twice and patted the dragon throne, making noises.

Seeing this, the ministers immediately returned to their seats.

The emperor looked down at his courtiers and laughed with glee.

"I know your heart for the country and the people. I also understand that you are worried about the Crown Prince having no heirs. Since you are so worried, I will not hide it from you."

The third prince looked at the emperor nervously, thinking that he was finally going to listen to the ministers and depose the crown prince.

In the past he would have certainly glossed over it, but today's father is really different.

He looked at the emperor expectantly, only to hear him say a piece of news that shocked the entire audience.

"From now on, you don't have to worry about the future instability of the country. I wanted to announce it tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious."

"Crown Princess, you are more than three months pregnant, and the baby is already firmly seated!"

"So, there will be no enemy attacks, no strange phenomena from the sky. Prince, I will not abolish it either! Now everyone is satisfied."

He looked serious and stern, but his heart was racing.

All the humiliation he had suffered over the years was finally avenged at this moment!

I was roaring with joy in my heart!

He had been forced into a desperate situation by the court officials and didn't want to be the emperor anymore.

They force him to depose the crown prince every day, but it turns out that the person sitting in this position is not them, yet they want to use him as a puppet, ordering him to do this and that every day.

The emperor knew very well that among his sons, regardless of whether they were legitimate or illegitimate, the second prince Zhao Junlin was still the most suitable one to be emperor.

He is decisive in his actions, does not show nepotism, has the ability and means, and loves his people like his own children.

During the drought a few years ago, he not only handled it properly, but also personally went to the south of the Yangtze River to inspect the conditions of the people.

Seeing how hard their lives were, Zhao Junlin thought of many solutions, and it was he who suggested letting them grow mulberry trees and raise silkworms.

Although it has not yet been popularized throughout the country, many people who do not have enough food to eat or clothes to wear are now living a much better life than in previous years because of mulberry planting and silkworm breeding.

Zhao Junlin is a man of real talent and learning.

On the other hand, although the third prince handled the duties assigned to him very well, his methods were not approved by the emperor.

The emperor favored Zhao Lingzhou, but he never thought of making him the crown prince.

At this moment, the Third Prince's body was extremely stiff, as if he had been struck by lightning.

When he heard that Zhao Junlin had a child, his first reaction was disbelief.

"Father, is this reliable? Could it be that the Crown Princess took some medicine she shouldn't have taken out of desperation and caused a false pregnancy, or is it that the imperial physician made a wrong diagnosis?"

He looked for the imperial physician who treated Zhao Junlin.

Under coercion and inducement, the message he got was that there was something missing in his body and it was impossible for him to get pregnant, so how could he have a child!!

The prince looked at him and sneered, "Third brother, what are you talking about? Do you think three months could be a misdiagnosis? My body has been cured long ago."

He had been waiting for this day just to see Zhao Lingzhou get angry and anxious.

The two of them didn't have a deep relationship in the past, but now that he knows that he covets his position and will ruthlessly destroy the Crown Princess's family in the future, he will never let him go!

The ministers who supported Zhao Lingzhou are now regretting their decision.

Why can't they wait a little longer? The emperor will announce the news soon, and they don't have to be the first to take action. They have already offended the prince openly.

The fact that the Crown Princess is pregnant is a very serious matter. It is definitely impossible for only one imperial physician to diagnose and treat it. The pregnancy is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed.

One of the most prominent figures, Gu Boqing, was now kneeling below, his body shaking like a sieve.
