Chapter 1653: Dumb Lord 43
The more the emperor heard the empress say this, the more he felt that Nangong Yuetong was the prince who could reassure him the most.
So, after half a year later, the courtiers once again reminded the emperor that he was not afraid of death to stabilize the court, the emperor nodded.
Seeing this, all the princes couldn't help being surprised, and then desperately maintained a calm and calm expression.
In my heart, I was looking forward to it. The person who was made a prince was myself.
However, they are destined to be disappointed.
Just listen to the emperor’s cold words at this time: “My Xia Dynasty’s rule is to establish a prostitute and not a long-term son. Now that the prostitute is still there, the position of the prince should naturally belong to the seventh! Nangong Yuetong is smart and pure, honest and tolerant...Today, I have ordered the seventh prince Nangong Yuetong to be the prince!"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence above the court.
But soon, someone began to kneel down and say: "The emperor must never! Although the Seventh Prince is good, but... he can't talk!"
"Yes, my lord, how can such a prince share your worries for you?"
Hearing these words, the emperor sneered, "Why can't I be the prince? And... If you don't make the prince, which prince do you want me to make?"
Having said that, his eyes were cold and swept over the fifth prince and others.
Do not establish the seventh?
He is going to be the seventh!
Only when the old Qi is appointed as the prince can they stop their mouths, and don't worry about threatening themselves!
As long as Lao Qiyi occupied the position of prince, these princes would never want to make any mess!
...
Seeing the emperor's anger, everyone was silent.
At this moment, the fifth prince stood up and said, "The sons and ministers think that the father has done a lot! The old seven has always been gentle, kind, and talented. He is indeed the most suitable candidate to become a prince!"
Upon seeing this, several other princes also agreed with the emperor's actions, not to be outdone.
Because they knew very well in their hearts that the emperor made Lao Qi a dumb prince, not because he really wanted Lao Qi to be the prince, but because...he needed Lao Qi as such and absolutely no threat to him. Prince!
Only in this way can he feel at ease.
For them, it just so happens!
Anyway, whoever becomes the emperor cannot be the seventh.
In that case, what if he is temporarily allowed to sit as a prince?
...
But I don't know, Tang Wan and Nangong Yuetong, wish they thought so!
And the imperial edict quickly spread to the Seven Princes' Mansion.
After Nangong Yuetong learned about it, a look of astonishment appeared on her face immediately, and then she accepted the imperial decree with a grateful expression.
However, after receiving the imperial decree, Nangong Yuetong immediately wrote a booklet to the emperor, expressing that he was in poor health, so although he was very grateful to the emperor for making him the prince, but he could not share his guilt.
Upon seeing this, the emperor felt more at ease!
Sure enough, he didn't read the old seven wrong!
At this time, the prince was settled, but no one could divide his power.
Who can play higher than his trick?
...
When the emperor was elated, Tang Wan was about to be born.
The queen could not go out of the palace, so when she learned that Tang Wan was about to give birth, she kept chanting and praying.
It must be the little prince!
But Tang Wan didn't panic at all, her heart was as steady as a rock.
But in order to prevent someone from hitting the child with her idea, Tang Wan deliberately temporarily changed to another stable wife when she gave birth.
