Chapter 237: Establishing a Princess

Yun Shu casually mentioned the last trump card, and the calm expression on the deposed prince's face finally broke.

He snatched the sword of the black-armored guard beside him, turned around and put it on Xuanping Hou's neck, his face grim:

"How dare you betray me!"

"I don't have it, and I don't know either!"

I have no idea how things got to this point.
Although I failed to win the Dragon's Merit, the Nine Clans Elimination Game is right in front of me.

Xuanping Hou was panicking when he suddenly felt a sword on his neck. He knew that if he didn't say something, he would be sent to hell by the deposed crown prince without waiting for Emperor Xuanwu's decision.
He made up his mind and blatantly stood on the side of the deposed crown prince:
"Your Highness, please don't panic. We don't know the situation outside the palace yet.

Maybe our people won?"

"……You're right."

I don't know whether he really thinks what Xuanping Hou said makes sense, or he is simply grabbing the last straw in desperation, so he desperately hopes it is true.

The deposed prince murmured, and his expression became firm again:

"It's still unknown who will win, I still have a chance!"

"It's a beautiful dream."

Yun Shu sneered:
"You do still have a chance. You still have a chance to be reborn."

"you……"

"Shut up!"

Yun Shu returned the scolding to the deposed crown prince, and as he listened to the new round of noise outside, he raised his chin slightly:
"Didn't they say it was still unknown who would win? Now we know."

Already got the results?

The prince's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

He suddenly turned around, and when he saw the face of the leader of Xuanping Hou's former subordinates appear at the entrance of Linde Hall, surprise suddenly blossomed in his eyes.

But within a second, the man fell to his knees with tears streaming down his face.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I am incompetent..."

hum-

The smile froze on his lips, before he could even stop smiling.

The deposed crown prince's mind went blank. He watched helplessly as Zhuo Fengxin, who had caught up with him, kicked away the old subordinates of Marquis Xuanping, strode to the front of Emperor Xuanwu and Yunshu, knelt on one knee, and said in a loud voice:
"I have accomplished my mission!"

"it is good!"

Emperor Xuanwu, who had hardly expressed his opinion since Yun Shu spoke, finally raised his eyes coldly and said sternly:
"The deposed Crown Prince Yun Chucheng committed treason and forced the emperor to abdicate.

Fortunately, my fifth daughter, Yunshu, is gifted, thoughtful, far-sighted, and has great ambitions. She is admired by people far and wide, and is highly regarded by the government and the public.
You anticipated the conspiracy to depose the Crown Prince and made careful arrangements, and achieved this great feat. I am very pleased.

Now I make her the Crown Princess, and seat her squarely in the East Palace, to strengthen the rule for thousands of years, and to win the hearts of the people all over the world!"

You're going to make her the crown princess now?

Before he could recover from the series of events including the deposed Crown Prince forcing the emperor to abdicate, Princess Sheng'an's advance preparation, and the deposed Crown Prince's failure in forcing the emperor to abdicate, he turned around and heard His Majesty's golden words, establishing the Princess as the Crown Princess.

The ministers were completely stunned.
Even Yun Shu herself had not expected such a thing to happen. Although when she relayed the news that Ji Yongtian had told her to Emperor Xuanwu, Emperor Xuanwu said that he could temporarily give her the authority to mobilize the Imperial Guards and the Capital Camp, and let her be fully responsible for dealing with this matter,
She thought that Emperor Xuanwu might be considering her as a candidate for crown prince.

But she just thought it was a test. She didn't expect the other party to be so helpful. As soon as he opened his mouth, the position of Crown Princess was given to her directly!
But this is indeed a good thing for her.

Therefore, after a brief moment of shock, Yun Shu was the first to come to his senses, accept the order and express his gratitude.

The ministers who were dissatisfied with her being made a princess were a little slow to act. Their cheeks turned red as they tried to object.
But in such a situation, he didn't dare to say a word.

Only the deposed crown prince, after hearing that everything was settled, the first thing Emperor Xuanwu said was not to punish the deposed crown prince who plotted treason, but to make Yunshu the crown princess.

He was so angry that his defense was broken and he spat out blood on the spot!
"Ha...hahahahahaha..."

From the beginning, he chuckled in a trance, then laughed like crazy, and finally laughed until tears came out.
The deposed crown prince finally raised his hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Emperor Xuanwu with mocking eyes:
“I didn’t expect that I would become the one who helped Yunshu ascend to the position of the Crown Princess.

It turns out that you, Father, also knew that it would not be easy to make Yunshu the Crown Princess and that it would certainly encounter a lot of opposition.

So for the sake of your beloved daughter, I have no choice but to sacrifice your son.

After forcing the emperor to abdicate, while everyone was still in shock, the matter was settled...ha...

Killing people is not enough, you are really cruel enough."

He had to watch Yun Shu being made the crown princess.

He must be made to realize clearly that even though he had already forced the emperor to abdicate and committed the heinous crime of treason,

In the eyes of my father, it is still not as important as seeking benefits for Yun Shu.

孤。

His self-proclaimed title is indeed correct.
The past prosperity faded away and he was left alone in the end.

The deposed prince lowered his eyes, looked at the long sword in his hand, and a cold smile slowly curved up the corners of his lips:

"It's the Fifth Princess' birthday today, and she has been appointed as the Crown Princess. It's a double blessing. I don't have anything good to give you, so how about giving you a life?"

"Ah Ku!"

Yun Shu's pupils suddenly shrank when he realized what the deposed crown prince was going to do.
The moment he opened his mouth, a black shadow flashed in front of him, instantly knocked the sword out of the deposed prince's hand, and pinned the man to the ground!

The deposed prince struggled twice but was unable to move. His calmness in facing death was once again replaced by a panic-stricken hatred:

"Yun Shu, let me tell you, don't try to pretend to be a good person here! You..."

"Second brother, you misunderstood. I have no interest in pretending to be a good person. I simply think you are unlucky."

She doesn't want to have to think about such an unlucky thing every birthday in the future!
Yun Shu glanced coldly at the deposed crown prince, then turned to discuss with Emperor Xuanwu:

"Father, can you wait until today to deal with this matter?"

"Didn't you hear what the princess said?"

Seeing blood is not a good omen after all.
It would be fine if Yun Chucheng, this rebellious son, chose such a good day as today to commit treason, but now that he has been captured alive, his punishment will naturally be postponed.

Emperor Xuanwu waved his hand with a cold face, signaling the imperial guards to quickly take everyone away, pack up what needed to be packed up, and withdraw what needed to be withdrawn, and everything should be restored to its original state as soon as possible.

Only the banquet can be resumed, but the previous mood and atmosphere can never be restored.

Yun Shu was well aware of this, so he simply asked everyone to disperse.
