"Yes! Please, King Jin!"
"Please invite King Jin!"
Other court officials also echoed, and for a while, shouts rose and fell in the court.
"You are all so audacious! Before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appears, you will not be allowed to violate the rules of propriety!"
A conservative old minister shouted at the top of his lungs, waving his tablet in an attempt to quiet everyone down.
"Where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Someone else asked loudly, and the court suddenly became a mess. Everyone was talking at once, and no one would give in. The noise almost blew the roof of the Taiji Hall off.
Fang Xuanling kept silent. He stood quietly by the side with deep eyes, wondering what he was thinking about.
Li Shimin beside him frowned, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Zhi Nu? Why did Zhang Sun Wuji support Zhi Nu to take the throne?"
Li Shimin didn't care who would eventually take the throne. He just felt very nervous.
The figure of Li Chengqian kept appearing in his mind. He was the eldest son who was once lively and lovely, but was now in such a dangerous situation.
He felt extremely regretful, thinking that he had gone too far. His original intention was to make his sons become better through competition, but he had not expected things to develop to such an extent. He might have even killed his incompetent eldest son.
Li Shimin, unaware of Li Chengqian's situation, was in a state of panic. Even if the crown prince was incompetent, he was still his son. His original intention was to let the brothers fight for the winner, not to let them kill each other! Thinking of this, Li Shimin's eyes became firm. There was no need to continue this drama!
He glanced at Yuchi Jingde, his eyes conveying a certain message. Yuchi Jingde understood and nodded. Li Shimin straightened up and took a step forward, ready to intervene and stop the chaos.
"Oh no, oh no! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has led a large army to surround the city of Chang'an!" A eunuch rushed in hurriedly to report. He ran so fast that he almost fell down.
The sharp voice pierced through the quarrel in the hall like a sharp sword. Everyone suddenly became quiet, looking at each other, and everyone was a little at a loss.
Especially the generals on the field, they were the ones that attracted the most attention. They looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
I don't know who is leading the troops, but I bet on the prince. But looking left and right, the generals are all there!
Where did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince get his troops? This sudden news was like a bolt from the blue, plunging the entire court into a deeper panic.
Li Shimin quickly withdrew the step he had taken, and his face became very surprised.
"His Royal Highness?"
Some court officials murmured to themselves, their eyes filled with shock.
"Zhangsun Wuji! What do you mean? Didn't you say that the Crown Prince is critically ill?"
Wei Zheng's face was full of anger and he directly fired at Changsun Wuji.
"So what does that mean now!?"
He was so angry that his face turned red and his body trembled slightly with anger. Looking at Zhangsun Wuji's gloomy face, Wei Zheng's eyes were filled with even more anger.
"Zhangsun Wuji, you old thief!"
He shouted loudly.
"Everyone, follow me to welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
After saying that, Wei Zheng waved his sleeves and prepared to go out. His steps were firm and his eyes were full of determination.
Before reaching the door, a row of fully armed Qianniu Guards blocked the entrance of Taiji Hall. They held spears in their hands and had stern expressions, like a steel wall.
"The will has been read. Prince Jin is now the legitimate heir. He is no longer the crown prince, but a traitor. Don't you understand?"
Changsun Wuji's words were like a heavy hammer, which put an end to the matter.
The officials from the aristocratic families who agreed with Changsun Wuji spoke up one after another.
"Yes, now His Royal Highness Prince Jin is the legitimate heir!"
"We firmly support His Royal Highness Prince Jin as emperor!"
"Your Highness the Prince of Jin is kind and benevolent. This is the kind ruler we want to follow!"
