Chapter 493

"According to the usual practice, the purple bamboo sticks are now distributed, and everyone will write the name of their choice."

The Empress Dowager gave an order to distribute special purple bamboo sticks to those who were qualified to propose.

Feng Qianwei and Yun Liangze also received purple bamboo sticks, and they also have the right to vote.

Everyone immediately wrote the name of the prince they supported, and after writing it, they put it into the signing pot on the side.

Everyone thought hard for a while, wrote their names one after another, and put them into the pot.

"Start counting now."

With the count on the spot, the number of supporters of each prince also came out.

"These people really dare to choose!"

Yun Liangze was speechless when he saw the above results.

"Aren't they afraid of killing themselves?"

As Feng Qianwei had guessed, the number of people who supported the eldest prince was actually the largest, followed by the sixth prince.

"It's stubborn thinking that kills people."

Feng Qianwei knew that the idea of ​​the descendants and inferiors was deeply ingrained in their hearts. When the previous emperor did not establish a prince, they felt that it was the safest to choose the first prince, at least for them.

But they couldn't see that an unsuitable emperor would bring devastating disasters.

"As a smart person like me, I can't understand the thoughts of those stupid people."

Yun Liangze said narcissistically, finding a very suitable reason for not guessing correctly.

"Okay, you're smart."

Feng Qianwei didn't break him, just shook her head and said.

"Hmph, that's natural."

Yun Liangze's arrogant face made Feng Qianwei feel that he was like a child sometimes.

"These people are going too far."

Concubine Qi covered her stomach and stared at the queen with hatred.

The queen was smiling, even though her husband had just passed away, she couldn't contain the ecstasy in her heart.

"Niang Niang, your health is not yet well, don't be angry."

The palace maid said to Concubine Qi.

"Help Ben Gong to go to the thatched hut again."

Concubine Qi felt another pain in her stomach, but now that the result has come out, she is humiliating herself by staying here.

"Since the eldest prince is well-received, then the new emperor will..."

Just as the Empress was about to announce the candidate for the new emperor, she saw the sixth prince Zixuan slowly stand up.

"Although this prince respects my elder brother and everyone's opinions, I respect my father more. Therefore, at this time, I must also come up with the will of my father during his lifetime."

The sixth prince, Zixuan, took out an imperial decree and gave it to the empress dowager.

"open to take a look."

The Empress Dowager said.

As the imperial edict was opened, she saw the contents above and nodded slowly.

"This is the real imperial edict, you read it!"

"What decree?"

The queen looked closer, and when she saw the words on it, her face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Impossible! How could His Majesty make you a prince? How can you be worthy of the crown?"

"Although I was not very honorable by birth, since the royal father made me the crown prince, the ministers can only obey, and cannot go against the wishes of the royal father."

Zixuan said slowly.

Hearing his words, there was an uproar in the audience.

"I didn't expect His Majesty to have established the sixth prince as the crown prince."

"So, the sixth prince is the rightful heir."

"Yeah! The sixth prince is talented and intelligent, and His Majesty loves it very much. This is a reasonable thing."

"With this imperial decree, the throne cannot escape."

"..."

No one expected that things would take a big turn. Sixth Prince Zixuan's expression was calm. From the moment he got this imperial edict, he was sure that he would win this battle.

Bai Qingqiang looked up at him, with puzzled and doubtful eyes.

After I finished writing these chapters, I will restore the usual number of updates when Ge'er recovers a little.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! mwah!
