Dressed as the prince's substitute? I took the throne

Three years ago, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty went hunting and found a red-bellied phoenix. The ministers regarded it as a symbol of good fortune, so they placed it in front of their bedroom and took good care of it.

Could it be that the Sixth Prince was talking about was... the chicken?

In the end, this morning court session ended under Emperor Wu's murderous gaze. Just as the Second Prince was about to take the opportunity to slip away, he was caught by Emperor Wu and beaten like a top.

……

East Palace.

Xu Hanyan paced back and forth in the palace, looking at the news sent by the spies, the anxiety on her face was gradually replaced by sarcasm.

"You exposed my cheating in front of Emperor Wu and even threatened to sell grain mixed with sand?"

"Hmph... Is this the Prince Katsu's half-son you were talking about?"

"ridiculous!"

Xu Hanyan raised a hint of sarcasm on her red lips and drank her tea leisurely.

Originally, she really thought that this fake had some ability, but it seemed that it was just some jokes that were not even worthy of being in a formal setting.

Not to mention going against the Crown Prince...

"The Crown Princess keeps talking about me like this. It seems like she misses me like the sea!"

At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside.

puff!

Xu Hanyan spat out the tea she had just drunk, her pretty face shocked, as if she had seen a ghost, "You...what's wrong with you?"

Looking at Xu Hanyan with a look of shock, Zhou Chuxuan felt a surge of desire in his heart and hugged her in his arms, with his hands inside her clothes and a wicked smile on his face.

"Is the Crown Princess shocked to see me return safe and sound? Let me guess, is it because the intelligence was wrong that caused the Crown Princess to have such illusions?"

Xu Hanyan was shocked and remained silent for a long time.

She reacted, her pretty face flushed, her voice trembling, "You...you let me go!"

But the more she resisted, the more excited Zhou Chuxuan became.

"I have said that after one month, I will still be me and you will still be the Crown Princess. If you still don't believe me, how about we make a bet?"

Zhou Chuxuan's voice was calm, but his expression was full of arrogance.

It seemed as if everything was under his control, which was completely different from the situation in the Tai Chi Hall.

"You..." Looking at those deep eyes, Xu Hanyan's heart trembled. The energy contained in those eyes was something she had only seen in the real prince!

"If my guess is correct, my father will come over in a while. Firstly, he wants to test you and me, and secondly, he wants me to welcome the Northern Desert delegation in three days."

"If things really develop as I say, you and I will cooperate."

"If there's even a slight deviation, you'll still be you. I'll be with you for a month..."

"Leave it to fate!"

"how?"

Zhou Chuxuan's voice seemed to have magical power, and those eyes could easily make anyone fall for him. Xu Hanyan's mind was in a complicated state, and finally, she said inexplicably, "Okay..."

Wow!

After the voice fell, Zhou Chuxuan laughed and threw her onto the bed.

"you……"

What are you going to do? Xu Hanyan looked panicked.

Zhou Chuxuan smirked: "A month is so long, so of course I have to charge some interest!"

As he said this, he exerted force with both hands.

The palace dress on Xu Hanyan's body suddenly broke, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white.

Her face suddenly changed and she quickly started to scold him, but Zhou Chuxuan was one step faster and got there first.

At this moment, a rooster's voice was heard outside the door.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

When the voice sounded, Xu Hanyan hurriedly broke free from Zhou Chuxuan's arms, tidied up her messy clothes, and with a rosy look on her pretty face, she went out to greet Emperor Wu.

Zhou Chuxuan followed out as well. His domineering expression was gone, replaced by a silly look. He laughed heartily, "Your Highness, your son pays his respects to your Majesty."

"Ah."

Emperor Wu frowned and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, father!" Zhou Chuxuan and the other two stood up and followed Emperor Wu. Their eyes met secretly, and it was unknown what they were communicating.

Arriving in the hall, Emperor Wu sat in the main seat, his eyes fixed on Xu Hanyan. After a long silence, he spoke: "As expected of a daughter of the Xu family, I must thank you sincerely."

When the voice sounded, Xu Hanyan was slightly startled.

She knew that Emperor Wu was testing her, but fortunately, the two of them had already thought of a way to deal with it. She pretended to be confused: "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you mean."

"You let this fool of mine learn to read and write. Shouldn't I be grateful to you?" Emperor Wu laughed, his eagle-like eyes extremely sharp.

The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat silent.

Emperor Wu continued, "I am very pleased that you can assist the Crown Prince, and I am even happier to see that you two are getting along well."

"but……"

Having said that, Emperor Wu's tone changed, and there was a hint of coldness in his voice.

"The overall situation of the Wu Dynasty is under my control. Even the millions of my subjects cannot escape my watchful eyes."

As soon as the voice fell, Xu Hanyan quickly responded: "This humble servant will definitely not have any second thoughts. I will stay by the Crown Prince's side and assist him."

"Ah."

Seeing this, Emperor Wu nodded, then looked at Zhou Chuxuan. Seeing his useless appearance, he couldn't help but frown and said, "You fool, it's your blessing to have Han Yan by your side. You must not let her down."

Zhou Chuxuan put away his silly expression and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to Sister Hanyan's expectations and give birth to offspring for our Wu Dynasty as soon as possible. I was just discussing with Sister Hanyan what position to use..."

"enough!"

Seeing that he looked serious, Emperor Wu thought he was going to say something about repaying the favor, but when he heard his next words, his old face darkened.

If it weren't for the presence of the Crown Princess, she would have beaten him like a top.

He sighed and said, "Today, you have made great contributions to the court. It is only right and proper that I reward you."

Hearing these words, a flash of color appeared in Xu Hanyan's beautiful eyes.

Could it be that this fake really has some skills?

She thought Zhou Chuxuan was just bragging, but now not only was His Majesty here in person, he was also going to reward him...

"However, this happened suddenly, and I don't know what reward to give. Coincidentally, the Northern Desert delegation is already waiting in the court, so I will send you to meet the delegation."

"If you have made a contribution, the reward will be doubled. Even if you have not made any contribution, I will not punish you."

"how?"

Emperor Wu spoke slowly. If it were anyone else, he would agree to it, whether it was a promotion or a higher title, except for the crown prince... Although he was stupid, the Xu family was behind him.

This forced him to be vigilant.

After hearing this, Zhou Chuxuan still had a silly smile on his face, "Thank you, father, for the reward."

"Well, you better prepare yourself and don't let me down."

After Emperor Wu finished his instructions, he turned and left. The two of them immediately said.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

"Farewell... Father!"

Even when facing the receding figure of Emperor Wu, Zhou Chuxuan still maintained a foolish expression and scratched his head foolishly.

"Why did His Majesty ask you to welcome the Northern Desert delegation?"

Xu Hanyan was full of doubts and shock. As soon as Emperor Wu left, she couldn't wait to ask, is there no one among the princes and the civil and military officials in the court who can receive the delegation?

Zhou Chuxuan smiled faintly, stretched out a big hand, and took Xu Hanyan into his arms, while the other hand pinched her smooth and tender chin.

Only after making sure that there was no one else around did he reveal his true self.

"There must be a reason. If you want to hear it, I will tell you."

"what are you up to?"

Xu Hanyan screamed in panic and struggled subconsciously, but was easily knocked down on the bed by Zhou Chuxuan.
