"Get out of my way!"

Feng Mulan walked into the Yangxin Palace carrying a heavy sword. Seeing many people blocking her way, her eyes turned cold and she waved the heavy sword in both hands and spun around!

No one dared to face the might of the heavy sword, forcing the shadow guards to retreat one after another.

"No rudeness!"

Chu Ning walked out of the hall slowly and said calmly: "Father has never thought of killing me, so you don't need to hold a weapon in front of him."

Feng Mulan curled her lips: "Otherwise I will bring people into the palace, God knows what the outcome will be."

"Hmm?" Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and a look of displeasure flashed across his face.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

Feng Mulan pouted and threw the heavy sword in her hand towards the door, then looked at Chu Ning: "Are you satisfied?"

Chu Ning's mood turned from gloomy to bright, and he smiled and walked forward to hold her hand: "Thank you, my dear."

"That's pretty good. It's worth my time and effort to convince the Youzhou soldiers!"

Feng Mulan then smiled and said, "Only if I personally go out, no one else will be able to convince the Youzhou soldiers."

This is true. In the entire Kyoto city, only Feng Mulan has a special status. Only she can convince the Youzhou troops to march to the palace.

With four identities, even Shen Wanying, who is the Crown Princess, probably does not have the appeal that Feng Mulan has in the army.

The helpless emperor couldn't help but say, "Yes, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have lost today."

After saying that, he waved his hand towards Zhao Ming and said, "Let the shadow guards retreat."

Zhao Ming's face changed drastically: "Your Majesty, this..."

"I said, let them retreat!" The emperor's aura suddenly changed, and his eyes became extremely fierce.

Zhao Ming was shocked when he noticed the emperor's anger, and he quickly ordered, "All the shadow guards, retreat!"

Although the shadow guards were unwilling, this was the emperor's order and they dared not disobey.

But before leaving, the leader said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I am outside the palace. If you make a move, we will ensure that you get out safely!"

"No need, the prince will not kill me."

The emperor said calmly, "You all should retreat outside. No one is allowed to come in without my order."

He looked at Zhao Ming and said, "You get out too."

"Old slave, please resign!"

Although he didn't know what the emperor was going to do, Zhao Ming clearly felt that he could not be present for what was going to happen next.

The Grand Tutor beside him saw this and immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

"No!"

The emperor suddenly called him: "The Grand Master is here to be a witness."

The Grand Tutor was slightly stunned, not understanding the meaning of the Emperor's words.

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "What does the emperor want the Grand Tutor to witness?"

The emperor just chuckled and said, "Of course, it is to witness how I stepped down."

After saying that, he slowly took off the dragon crown on his head and handed it to Chu Ning.

Although there was a bit of reluctance in his eyes and a sigh on his face, he still said resolutely:

"I lost, and the price was the throne!"

"From now on, you are the emperor of Chu!"

When these words were spoken, all three people present were shocked.

Even Chu Ning was a little surprised at this moment.

He didn't expect that the emperor would actually give him the throne on his own initiative.

For a moment, the scene fell silent.

After a long while, the Master finally reacted and was horrified. He immediately knelt on the ground and shouted:

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible!"

"The capital city has just gone through the rebellion of Prince Anding, and the Qin State is eyeing it covetously. If you suddenly pass the throne to the crown prince, it will definitely cause speculation from the outside world."

"Qin will definitely not miss such an opportunity and will definitely launch an attack."

The succession of the throne basically takes place after the death of the previous emperor.

But if the emperor is still alive, this succession will cause speculation from the outside world.

In addition, King Anding had just experienced a mutiny, and the Youzhou troops rushed into the palace again today. The outside world must think that this was Chu Ning who led his troops into the palace after pacifying King Anding and forced the emperor to abdicate.

As long as there is a little rumor, Chu Ning will be accused of having come to the position illegitimately!

Even though Chu Ning had control of the military power and had the support of many ministers in the court, the people of Chu did not know the truth and would certainly think that Chu Ning forced the emperor to abdicate.

By then, even if Chu Ning became emperor, the State of Chu might still fall apart.

After all, there are many relatives in the Chu royal family. Once these people find a reason, they will definitely force Chu Ning to give up the throne.

By then, the State of Chu will be torn apart!

Chu Ning certainly understood this. Looking at the dragon crown that was within his reach, a solemn look appeared on his face.

If he takes over the dragon crown, he can hold the coronation ceremony.

But if that happens, he will be considered to have come to the position illegitimately, and will be subject to endless criticism and the reputation of having come to the position illegitimately.

This is not what he wants!

While thinking, the King of Chu suddenly chuckled: "Isn't this what you have always wanted? Why are you afraid to take it when the time comes?"

"I have been on the throne for twenty years. I dare not say that I have made any achievements, but at least I have made no mistakes and have preserved the country left by my ancestors."

"Now the Crown Prince is brave and capable of governing the court and defending against powerful enemies. You are capable of great responsibilities. This throne should belong to you!"

These words caused everyone at the scene to fall into silence.

Who dares to say that Chu Ning doesn't want to be emperor?

Do you dare to say that this dragon crown is not what Chu Ning has always wanted?

But now, is it really appropriate to take over the dragon crown?

In the quiet hall, only the twelve tassels on the dragon crown were shaking, making clanging sounds that were thrilling.

After a long while, Feng Mulan, who couldn't help herself first, pouted and said loudly: "What the emperor said makes sense!"

"Your Highness, why don't you just take this dragon crown!"

"In just four years, you destroyed Zhao, the Zhou Dynasty, overthrew Yan, defeated Qin, and fought against Wei. You almost defeated all the surrounding dynasties!"

"With such great military achievements, shouldn't you be the emperor?"

As the prince's concubine, she naturally hopes that her man can reach that unattainable position.

What's more, in her heart, the throne should have belonged to Chu Ning.

Now that the State of Chu has acquired so many cities, they were all conquered by Chu Ning. He should get what he deserves for his great contribution!

But the Grand Tutor was horrified when he heard this, and he kowtowed to Chu Ning while shouting:

"Your Highness, please think twice!"

"Today you brought the Youzhou troops into the palace. If you get the dragon crown under such circumstances, it would be treason, forcing the emperor to abdicate, and you are not in a legitimate position!"

"The historians will also record it in this way in the future, which will damage your reputation."

"You must not let your reputation be ruined in a moment of rage. Please think twice, Your Highness!"

"Boom~boom~boom~"

The master knocked his head very hard, and the floor made a duanduan sound.

In the blink of an eye, his forehead was bleeding.

Blood flowed slowly down the corners of his eyes and cheeks, making him look miserable.

But even so, the Grand Tutor continued to kowtow, begging Chu Ning not to take the dragon crown.

At this moment, Chu Ning frowned and looked thoughtful.

The dragon crown that is within reach and the supreme dragon throne are right before your eyes!

If he wants, he is the emperor today!
