Chapter 1129 The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (two hundred and fifty-two)
Prince Heshun did not intend to go against the emperor, but he really could not understand his royal brother's actions.
No one older than him in the clan has a higher status than him. He has succeeded the position of clan leader for several years and works diligently, following all the necessary rituals and steps.
When the royal family opened the ancestral hall and wanted to enshrine the princess in the imperial edict, he, the current clan leader, sent someone to meet Zhao Jing and check her identity. It was clearly a girl!
The maids who went to verify the identities came from different backgrounds, but they were all maids of high status in the royal family and it was impossible for them to lie.
The maids weren't so blind they couldn't even tell the sex of a baby. How could a girl turn into a boy just by raising her? The body structures were different, and that thing didn't just grow out of nowhere.
If it is true that the emperor is acting like this now, doesn’t it mean that the emperor was hiding something from his clan?
The emperor is really amazing. The few times that the ninth prince appears in public, he is always a girl. It is too frustrating for a prince to have to suffer to this extent.
"Prince Heshun is quite bold. But it's also true. If he doesn't distance himself from the matter, the royal family will no longer trust him as the head of the clan. But Your Majesty must be furious, right?"
Wei Ying laughed and said, "That's right. His Majesty was so angry that he threw the inkstone. However, the prince dodged quickly, so it didn't hit him. Instead, it hit the Marquis of Zhongshan behind him, causing a severe swelling on his forehead. Prince Heshun knelt down and begged His Majesty to calm down and, for the sake of the country, to carefully select a crown prince. He took the lead, and the Marquis of Zhongshan followed suit, and the rest of us followed suit."
Qingli listened. Fortunately, her father was not hit. However, the Marquis of Zhongshan was quite unlucky. Could the emperor have done it on purpose? "Last night, it was probably just His Majesty testing the ministers. What about today?"
Wei Ying had a subtle expression.
"Last night we parted on bad terms. Today the Emperor announced that the Fifteenth Princess is the Ninth Prince. He said that he had concealed the Ninth Prince's identity because he was afraid of being persecuted. However, some people still refused to give up and attempted to murder the Prince.
His Majesty also produced evidence that Concubine Tian had plotted to murder Concubine Jia and the Ninth Prince. He demoted Concubine Tian to Concubine Tian and placed her under house arrest. Marquis Zhongshan was ordered to reflect on his actions at home. His Majesty brought up the issue of the crown prince again and stated directly that he would appoint the Ninth Prince as the Crown Prince.
Qingli had a strange feeling that the emperor was being too radical.
Yesterday, he happily attended his son Prince Ren's wedding banquet and gave Concubine Tian special honors, but today he moved against Prince Ren's maternal family.
The emperor is so cruel and ruthless, he is the face-changing monster.
Even without Wei Ying's explanation, she believed that many people would oppose it and question the Ninth Prince's identity. In serious cases, officials would even suspect that the Emperor was incompetent.
For someone like her who likes conspiracy theories, without knowing the truth, she would suspect that the emperor had found an illegitimate child somewhere to replace the identity of the fifteenth princess.
"Is His Majesty retreating to advance? Does he simply want everyone to acknowledge the Ninth Prince's identity?"
"Perhaps, but I'm afraid it was the Tian family who reported that Prince Ren also came to the morning court today. He cursed the Ninth Prince as a bastard and Concubine Jia as a witch, saying that they had bewitched his father."
emperor……
The emperor was furious and ordered Zhao Yu to be dragged out and beaten with ten sticks. He then dismissed the court with one final sentence: "This is my kingdom. I can make whomever I want the crown prince. Anyone who objects is coveting my kingdom and intending to rebel. I will kill all his clans."
Qingli's eyes widened slightly. "Alright, if the emperor continues playing like this, no one will blame him for overturning the chess game." And if Zhao Yu rebelled, how would the emperor execute his entire clan?
Qingli was a little worried at this time. If this continued, and the next emperor was incompetent, jealous of talented people, and believed in slander, would the Wei and Song families be in danger?
