As soon as Wu Lie said this, at least forty or fifty of the group of ministers who had spoken out directly looked at Wu Lie angrily.
Wu Lie still had an iron face on his face and said in a deep voice: "Or is it that only those recognized by your lords are of royal blood? Those that are not recognized by your lords are of unknown origin?"
This sentence is a bit excessive. It's like pointing at the nose and scolding someone for having bad intentions.
The white-bearded old man yelled angrily: "Wu Lie! Don't confuse the situation. Don't you know that this matter is of great importance? It can easily shake the country's foundation. How can the Tian family have any private affairs?! You still pretend to be crazy and slanderous here!" Jun! I used to think that you, Wu Lie, were selfless and unyielding, but today I found out that you, Wu Lie, have made slanderous remarks, and are actually so heartless and crazy, flattering villains!"
Wu Lie raised his head proudly, his eyes met the eyes of the white-bearded old man, and he said slowly: "Justice is in the heart of the people, and there is no need to argue about right and wrong! From the beginning to the end, the official just said a fair word, and Mr. Wang made such a long speech. Is this such a big crime? The subordinate asked himself that he couldn’t bear such a big crime, and he was even more unwilling to bear it. He shouldn’t bear it.”
"I just want to ask Mr. Wang, look around the entire Yutang Empire, who should care about the royal bloodline the most? Is it you and me?! No! The only one who values this bloodline the most is Your Majesty! Your Majesty now Since the court has recognized this grandson, it has gone through countless verifications, how can there be any sloppiness! I wonder if Mr. Wang agrees or disagrees with my question? "
Mr. Wang's white beard was trembling and his face was flushed, but he was speechless for a long time.
Do you agree or disagree
Who dares to disagree
Dare to say that you disagree is the crime of deceiving the emperor, and you will be killed on the spot without hesitation.
Moreover, what Wu Lie said is also true. Anyone may infer a heir that is beneficial to him for some public or private reasons, even knowing that the identity of the heir he injects is false. Only the emperor Your Majesty will definitely not.
The continuation of the royal heirs he desires will only be left to his own direct bloodline. No matter how unbearable his subsequent bloodline is, it will always be his own bloodline. Others, no matter how talented and wise they are, have the same relationship with him. Does it matter
Therefore, it is really true that only His Majesty the Emperor would never bring heirs with doubtful identities to the fore.
Wu Lie snorted and said: "Although I am a few years younger than Mr. Wang, I was lucky enough to meet the eldest prince several times a few years ago. I still remember that when I first met his highness, the eldest prince was more... The child in front of him is only five or six years older... Mr. Wang, apart from other things, this child's face is 70% to 80% similar to the eldest prince. He could almost be carved from the same mold. Mr. Wang has been an official in the court for much longer than Xianguan. I believe he was a little younger than Xianguan when he first met the eldest prince. Xianguan asked Mr. Wang again whether Xianguan’s judgment is related to that of Xianguan. Is there any discrepancy in Mr. Boss’s memory!?”
Wu Lie, who saw Mr. Wang speechless, continued to talk: "Sir, please don't say that appearance is not enough. There are two sides. Don't blame one side. I only said that this child has a similar appearance to the eldest prince, but he also has a similar appearance. I haven't made a conclusion on this, I think it's empirical evidence, but in comparison, you adults don't care about anything; without any verification, any evidence, any... without seeing it, I just concluded that the origin of this child is unknown, and the royal bloodline must be It’s a prudent statement, but I always feel that there are more arguments…”
He raised his head, looked at the ministers, and said in a deep voice: "I would like to ask Mr. Wang and all of you, how can you conclude at this moment that this child has unknown origins? This child is not of royal blood. ? Why do you think that His Majesty the Emperor did not take this matter seriously?!"
"What happened just now, so many colleagues knelt down to remonstrate, how is this behavior different from forcing the palace?! Your... this action is too determined and too neat!"
Wu Lie paused for a moment and then said with a faint smile: "I secretly believe that if you have such drastic actions as those of your colleagues, not to mention that you don't have evidence in hand yet. Even if you have conclusive evidence in hand, you still need to be cautious. Wang What do you think, Sir?"
"That's nonsense! National affairs must never be careless!" Mr. Wang finally woke up and fought back, changed the direction of his argument, and attributed everything to the country's foundation.
But Wu Lie had already raised his head, and many officials on the opposite side jumped out, accusing Mr. Wang and others of being ignorant of the emperor and for forcing the palace to bully the emperor. Following Mr. Wang, ordinary people quoted scriptures without showing any signs of weakness and began to fight back.
After going back and forth, hundreds of people in the main hall became a noisy group, which was much more lively than the busy vegetable market.
Almost everyone was so noisy that their faces turned red, their ears were flushed, and their anger was rising. They were foaming at the mouth and their eyes were as angry as bells.
His Majesty the Emperor sat on it and watched them argue for a full hour before finally angrily slapping the armrest of the dragon chair: "That's enough!"
The civil and military officials just stopped talking and stopped there.
His Majesty the Emperor looked furious and stood up with his hands behind his back: "Yun Xiaoyao!"
"I'm here."
"My eldest emperor, Sun Yu Qiankun, will be taught by you first; please don't let me teach you anything bad."
"I obey the decree."
"The specific canonization matters will be discussed later!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
…
An attentive official had noticed that His Majesty the Emperor's hand had always been gently holding the little child's hand. From the beginning to the end, he never let go. This was the case for more than an hour in the morning.
Especially when there was a group of criticisms, when the atmosphere was the most heated, the child was obviously timid, his face was pale and his eyes were full of fear, but His Majesty the Emperor would exert some force on his hands from time to time, and occasionally pat him with his hands. Putting the child on the shoulder, patting the child on the head, and slightly expressing comfort, it seems that he has been saying: I am here! No one can touch you, don't be afraid!
It can be said that at the beginning of this court meeting, His Majesty the Emperor said a few words, and after he dropped the topic, he never thought about it again.
Wu Lie was allowed to quarrel with the ministers, but His Majesty the Emperor was only thinking about coaxing the children. His love was so obvious that everyone could see it.
Also, the newly promoted Xiaoyao Wang Yunxiaoyao didn't say a word throughout the whole process. It was obvious that he had anticipated today's outcome, or that he knew it in his heart and had already made up his mind!
Thinking about it, in the end, everyone was exhausted from arguing, and the emperor made the final decision. From a literal perspective, it seemed that he had given in... But everyone knew in their heart that it was definitely not the case!
Because the other person involved... King Xiaoyao... is the younger brother of the emperor whose identity and background he has publicly acknowledged is of royal blood! Putting it in King Xiaoyao's house and putting it in the palace have similar meanings, if not the same!
Thinking more deeply, is His Majesty the Emperor's unexpected move of conferring kings and marquises before, a preparation for today's move? !
What's more... Not only does King Xiaoyao have a distinguished status and unparalleled martial arts skills, but there are countless masters in the palace, which can be said to be a safer place than the palace!
In other words, it can be said that the child is still in danger in the palace, but now that he has gone to Xiaoyao Palace, he is truly as stable as a mountain and is out of danger!
…
The prince's eyes became even more sinister, and with a gloomy face, he was the first to step out.
Before he even left the palace, the murderous aura all over his body was already raging in a way that could not be concealed.
Since coming to court, every move and action of His Majesty the Emperor has been under the Prince's attention.
So he knew clearly: He was finished, there was no hope!
In other words, as long as this Jade Universe still exists, I will absolutely... There is no possibility of succeeding, and I can't compete with him 100%!
Even the little guy doesn't have to fight. His father will naturally take the initiative to help him fight, help him lay the groundwork, and help him get the upper hand!
An unprecedented sense of crisis suddenly enveloped the heart of His Royal Highness.
In the past, my father was dissatisfied with himself, and he often said something like: "If your eldest brother was still here..."
Or: "Even if you can catch up to one-tenth of your big brother... I have no regrets!"
"Why are you so dissatisfied? Look at your eldest brother...he was at your age..."
In the past, when my father said these words, I listened to them. Although I was dissatisfied, I didn't have much resistance!
After all... the eldest brother is dead!
A dead man, no matter how powerful he is, cannot climb up from the ground to compete with him for the throne!
Therefore, His Highness the Crown Prince is not worried. Over time, he simply forgets what he has heard and will not take it to heart.
Especially the other brothers are not as good as myself. My father is only more disappointed with them! And I was still disappointed to the point of disgust.
You are the best choice among the royal family!
This throne...if not given to me, to whom
but now…
His competitor, his most powerful opponent, finally appeared!
Brother's son!
Jade Universe.
In fact, the moment the child appeared, the prince came to a very clear conclusion!
That... is the eldest brother's son!
Absolutely nothing wrong!
That child really looks exactly like his eldest brother, and even some of his mannerisms and charm are almost exactly the same. If he is not his biological son, then he is a ghost!
Yu Qiankun, the eldest grandson of his father, the son of his eldest brother, and his own nephew!
so what
I have been forced to a dead end!
