Chapter 2629 The Second Heir

"No." Luo Yibei turned his eyes to the side and ignored her words.

On the stage, the impartial staff suddenly interrupted, "Madam, should we continue?"

"There are so many people watching outside!" It was Heyman who answered.

Pei Anqi's expression froze, but there was nothing she could do.

The voting continued.

Pei Chengxi sat in his seat, and when the votes were announced later, he was in no mood to watch.

The bones on his face hurt. It was the first time in his life that he was punched by someone, and the punch was so cruel!

He rubbed his bruised face again and again with his fingertips, slowly pondered Luo Yibei's reaction, and his eyes turned stiffly. Pei Chengxi's chest suddenly boiled.

"Do you know something?"

"No." Luo Yibei answered calmly.

"Is Chi Xia..." He wanted to ask further, but the voice of the statistician on the stage suddenly sounded, "The vote count is out, and the crown prince of Yaheng has surpassed His Highness Pei with 7 million!"

Turning his eyes to the crowded crowd outside the venue, the voice of the statistician sounded again, "Before this vote, the people had protested against the original succession system, and this vote was also based on the principle of following public opinion. Now, the result is out! If we follow public opinion, according to the result of this vote, the vote count is already very obvious."

Raising his volume, he said word by word, "I solemnly announce here that the first heir of the royal family will be changed from His Highness Pei Chengxi to His Highness Xi Yaheng II!"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, and every word spread like a loudspeaker at the scene, reaching the ears of the crowd, causing the crowd present to boil almost instantly.

"Does anyone present have any opinions?"

The statistician looked at the crowd below the stage and asked once.

"Change!"

"Change!"

The audience was boiling.

"Where are Madam Anqi and His Highness Pei?" The statistician turned his gaze to the seats where Pei Anqi and Pei Chengxi were sitting and asked again.

Pei Chengxi sat in his seat and just watched the scene coldly from beginning to end, with an expression on his face that never relaxed.

Pei Anqi's face was dark, and she stood up and walked out of the venue impatiently.

Heyman sat in the first row of the stage, and his eyes followed her figure and glanced at her lightly, with the corners of his lips slightly curled.

On the stage, the statistician looked at all the people present again, "Since the royal family and the people have no objection, then His Highness Xi Yaheng will definitely succeed His Highness Pei Chengxi!"

Everyone was ready to hold the awl to finalize the result, but a light voice suddenly sounded outside the scene, "The order of succession has always been the unchanging tradition of Country Y for many years. Even if any changes are to be made, they must be considered for a long time."

"Now, in just a few days, so many years of rules, just ignore it, and just appoint His Highness Xi, who was originally ranked third, as the first heir. Where does this put Pei Yunxi, who was originally ranked second in the order of succession?"

The voice was very clear, light and gentle, like a clear stream flowing through the noisy scene, lightly echoing in the ears of everyone present, calm and unhurried.

The abrupt interruption of the voice made the originally noisy scene suddenly quiet like death.

Everyone's eyes all drifted to the source of the voice.

Outside the venue, Fang Chixia walked towards this side with slow steps, his eyes swept across the faces at the scene, and finally turned directly to the statistics desk.
