Chapter 1445

1445 The final winner, the 14th Prince Zhou Jing!

“What’s the point of thinking so much? It’s going to be noon soon, so he only has fifteen minutes. Wait a little longer and he’ll naturally announce the crown prince’s candidate.” Sword 12 was very open-minded.

“When he announces the candidate for the Crown Prince, it will be time for us to make our move. Emperor Hui Wen will definitely be very satisfied with this great gift.” Xiao ran laughed.

The two of them looked at each other, clinked their wine jars together, and drank the wine in the jar in one go.

Fifteen minutes passed by very quickly.

While everyone was waiting, he quickly passed by.

In the Imperial study.

Eunuch Wen reminded him, ” Your Majesty, it’s time. We should head over.

“Yes.” Emperor Hui Wen nodded.

Eunuch Wen called the palace maids outside in and asked them to change Emperor Huiwen’s clothes and put on the ceremonial dress that would only be worn when offering sacrifices to the heavens or for important matters.

He was dressed.

The small door at the back opened, and a young man walked out under the protection of four old eunuchs.

He had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. He was handsome and had the aura of a King. He was wearing a bright yellow five-clawed dragon robe and a golden bamboo hat that covered his face.

He stopped in front of Emperor Hui Wen and respectfully saluted, ” “Your son greets Imperial father!”

“Yes.” Emperor Hui Wen nodded in satisfaction.

Looking at him was like looking at her younger self.

He patted his shoulder. have you been waiting for this day for a long time? ”

“No, I didn’t!” The young man smiled and shook his head.

“To this son, the health of father’s dragon body is more important than anything else.”

“You’ve been sensible and filial since you were young. You’ve never hidden anything in front of me, nor have you lied! I only showed a little bit of love, and I almost got you killed. The white-haired man seeing the black-haired man off! Since then, you’ve been living in the dark all these years. Are you angry with father?” Emperor Hui Wen reminisced and told him about the past.

The young man’s name was Zhou Jing. His Imperial mother was the Empress. She was a proper and intelligent person. Hearing Emperor Hui Wen’s words, she no longer called him Imperial father, but changed her words and said,”Father!”

In the name of ordinary people.

Upon hearing this.

The smile on Emperor Hui Wen’s face grew even wider. This “father” was far more important than any other answer.

Excited, he patted Zhou Jing’s shoulder and said ” good ” three times.

His smile disappeared and became serious and murderous. His eyes were filled with cold killing intent as he looked outside coldly. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to his youth, domineering and fearless.

“Some stinky rats are very restless. I’ll take this opportunity to get rid of them! I’ll help you relieve some pressure.”

Zhou Jing was touched by his father’s words.

He couldn’t help but open his arms and tightly hold Emperor Hui Wen in his arms.

Emperor Hui Wen loved him very much, and he also liked Emperor Hui Wen from the bottom of his heart. The relationship between father and son was very deep, far beyond that of the other princes.

“Don’t act like a little girl.” Emperor Huiwen released him.

She reached out her hand to tidy up his collar and his messy hair, then retracted her hand.

“Get ready!” He said imposingly.

The palace door opened.

Emperor Huiwen took the lead and walked out, followed closely by Zhou Jing, eunuch Wen, Taoist master Chen Gong, and the others.

The Dragon carriage was already prepared. They got on the Dragon carriage, and the flame God guards and nether guards guarded them on both sides. There were also other experts protecting them in the dark as they headed towards the square.

At the square.

The civil and military officials, nobles, famous scholars, the higher-ups of the three Academies, the experts of the five major departments, and those who were famous in the capital had all arrived.

All of them were neatly dressed and sitting on soft cushions. There was a table in front of them with all kinds of delicious food and wine on it.

Except for them.

Those who were highly skilled in the Zhou state, as well as other people, were also invited.

The left and right prime ministers sat at the head of the table.

“His Majesty has arrived!” A rooster’s voice rang out.

With the support of spiritual power, his voice spread to every corner of the square. Everyone could hear him.

Under the protection of the Yan Shen guards and netherworld guards, Emperor Hui Wen’s Dragon carriage arrived. Seeing him, everyone, Ji Ming, stood up from the cushion.

“Your Majesty!” Everyone saluted.

The Dragon carriage stopped and eunuch Wen took a step forward, helping Emperor Huiwen down from the Dragon carriage and walking towards the high platform in the middle.

Zhou Jing was one step behind him.

Although he was wearing a golden bamboo hat that concealed his appearance, there were still some people who were familiar with him and recognized him from his appearance.

His eyes were filled with deep disbelief as if he had seen a ghost. His thoughts spun quickly.”Isn’t fourteenth brother already dead? How did he come back to life?”

Some of the more intelligent princes were even more quick-witted. From the current situation, Zhou Jing’s appearance, and Emperor Huiwen’s presence, they came to an unbelievable answer.

father, are you going to make him the Crown Prince? ”

He thought again.

Combining the recent news of the Crown Prince and the current situation, an even more terrifying guess appeared. could it be that the Crown Prince was just a part of my Father’s plan? his goal was to get rid of those disobedient or powerful princes and pave the way for Zhou Jing to take the throne? ”

He continued to think about the bigger picture.

did my father secretly send people to kill those dead princes? then, he found a crime and threw the blame on netherworld prison? ”

Thinking of this ...

These princes were all afraid, and even the eyes looking at Emperor Hui Wen were filled with despair!

He was afraid that he would be one of the dead princes next. Even if his dog’s words were still intact, he would be locked up in the Imperial Clan Court and never see the sun for the rest of his life.

He was unwilling to accept this! They clenched their fists tightly. As long as there was the slightest possibility, they would never compromise like this. They would definitely take revenge at all costs!

If there was a little chance, he would not hesitate to launch a rebellion and send Emperor Hui Wen on his way. Then, he would destroy the 14th Prince Zhou Jing and take the throne.

Among them, the first Prince’s influence was the greatest!

The anger in his heart could burn the sky and boil the sea, but it was useless. Not only did he not have any thoughts of revenge, but his body turned cold from head to toe. He was thinking about how to save his life!

He couldn’t even sit still, afraid that after today, he would be silently eliminated and die without a burial place!

“No! I can’t just sit here and wait for death, or I’ll be the next one to die.” The first Prince thought urgently.

Suddenly.

A flash of inspiration came to his mind and he thought of a life-saving idea. After Emperor Huiwen’s 66th birthday, he would go to him and hand over all his power.

Only the core power was retained. In this way, he would become a powerless Prince on the surface. He would then lock himself in the mansion and never leave the mansion no matter what happened.

If there was a chance in the future, he would use the power in the dark to start a rebellion and get rid of them all!

As for his hidden power, whether Emperor Hui Wen would discover it or not, he was confident that he had done it very discreetly, and no one else knew about it!

He had thought everything through.

Only then did the first Prince’s anxious heart relax.

At this moment.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Emperor Hui Wen had already led Zhou Jing up the high platform, with eunuch Wen standing respectfully behind them.

“Rise!” Emperor Hui Wen said.

Everyone returned to their seats.

Emperor Huiwen opened his mouth. His voice was very loud, like a sudden clap of thunder, reaching everyone’s ears. today is my sixty-sixth birthday, and also my forty-sixth year on the throne. I hereby announce something.

Hearing this, everyone perked up their ears, knowing that they were about to enter the main topic.

Emperor Hui Wen also stopped and his gaze fell on the 14th Prince, Zhou Jing, and nodded to him.

The latter understood and immediately took off his bamboo hat. He handed it over to eunuch Wen, revealing his handsome face.

among the people present, many of you know the fourteenth Prince, Zhou Jing. There are also some who don’t. Let me reintroduce him. This is my son, the fourteenth Prince. His name is Zhou Jing. Emperor Hui Wen pointed at him and introduced.
