MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 288 Jinglei: The eldest prince is still alive!
Chapter 288 Thunder: The eldest prince is still alive!
The Golden Luan Hall was undercurrents and the atmosphere was becoming more and more tense. Only Zhou Mu had a clear mind, so Zhou Xing and his henchmen were overjoyed too soon.
Looking at Emperor Chengde on the dragon seat again, after observing the various expressions of the courtiers, he said slowly: "Today is the Shangyuan Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and it is also a good day for family reunion. Good news for everyone."
When all the ministers heard that Emperor Chengde had good news to announce, they all looked forward to it.
If Emperor Chengde can call it good news, it must be great news.
It seems that Emperor Chengde has been on the throne for more than ten years, and he has never said such words as "announcing good news" in the early court.
However, Emperor Chengde seemed to be unable to see the expectations in everyone's eyes, so he sold enough.
Old Chi Ge lost his patience after waiting for a while, and simply came out and asked, "May I ask what kind of good news Your Majesty wants to announce?"
Emperor Chengde was waiting for someone to ask him, his eyes inadvertently passed Zhou Mu's face, and the corners of his lips could not help but rise: "I don't know if you, dear friends, still remember the great tragedy that happened when I was the crown prince twenty years ago. misfortune."
When Emperor Cheng De said this, the audience fell silent.
How did everyone not know that old thing? Empress Shungong passed away in that accident, and the eldest prince lost his breath just after he was born. Emperor Chengde lost his wife and son and suffered heavy losses.
After Emperor Chengde came to the throne, no one dared to mention the tragic past.
But at this time, Emperor Chengde exposed his wounds, which made people puzzled and also seemed weird.
Could it be that the good news that Emperor Chengde said had something to do with that old incident?
Everyone only dared to speculate in their hearts, but no one dared to answer.
Emperor Cheng De's gaze was once again fixed on Zhou Mu's body, and he remembered how the child was dying when it was born, like a kitten, only a little bigger.
Now he has grown into a man of indomitable stature, even taller than him.
"Back then when my eldest son was born, he lost his breath. My heart ached so badly. I thought this child would be like that..."
Emperor Chengde said this, and the ministers suddenly noticed something.
Zhou Xing's pupils constricted, and he looked at Emperor Chengde in disbelief.
"Fortunately, that child was born with a big life, and he broke through on the edge of life and death, and now he has grown up. I think that in a few days, I will officially let that child enter the royal family tree." Emperor Cheng De then threw another heavy bomb丨 Bomb, blowing up everyone present beyond recognition.
Zhao Wang was not present. These people were so flamboyant, he stepped forward and asked if he had any doubts: "Father, what does the emperor mean that the elder brother is still alive?!"
This is the question of everyone present, but no one dares to be as ignorant as Zhao Wang. One is afraid of touching Emperor Chengde's sad events, the other is afraid of getting wrong ideas, and the third is afraid of offending Zhou Xing.
But it is different if asked by King Zhao.
"Yes, your eldest brother is still alive. Then pick an auspicious day and let him enter the family tree." Tears flickered in Emperor Chengde's eyes.
Grand Master Wei also recovered at this time, he was very excited: "Your Majesty, His Highness is really still alive?!"
If so, that would be great.
The prince establishes the eldest son and establishes the first son, so the prince is of serious royal blood.
Zhou Xing's hands and feet were cold. At this moment, he felt that the voices in the hall suddenly disappeared, and he only heard his own chaotic heartbeat.
Originally, the crown prince was in his pocket, but he never expected that there would be an emperor's eldest son. Didn't that person die as early as twenty years ago, why did he suddenly appear to compete with him for the position of crown prince?
His heart seemed to be tumbling in an oil pan, but he couldn't show it on his face, he just stared blankly at a certain place in front of him.
"Everything is fine with that child." Emperor Chengde looked at the ministers who were discussing in the hall, with a faint smile in his eyes.
Grand Master Wei was so excited that he couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, where is His Highness now?!"
He asked this question out of everyone's heart.
If the eldest prince is still alive, why not bring him directly to the court?
Emperor Chengde has the temperament, and it is impossible to make fun of the royal blood, and he chose to bring it up on such an important day.
"Wei Qing, there is no need to worry. Everyone will see my son soon. Come here today and retreat." Emperor Cheng De said, waving his dragon sleeves, and left the Jinluan Hall gracefully.
Leaving a group of ministers looking at each other, they all wondered how the eldest prince who had been dead for twenty years would suddenly come back to life, and he didn't show up directly, let them guess.
Everyone's mood is actually very complicated.
After all, before today, no one knew that the eldest prince was still alive, and everyone thought that the crown prince was in Zhou Xing's pocket.
Suddenly an eldest prince appeared, and he was also a legitimate son. If he really wanted to recognize his ancestor and return to his clan, wouldn't the crown prince have to fall into the hands of the eldest prince?
So, everyone was quietly looking at Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing received strange looks from the courtiers, and those courtiers who usually kept their eyes on his buttocks did not come to his side at this moment.
He felt like a fire was burning in his heart, but he didn't know how to vent it.
He left the Hall of Supreme Harmony in a daze, wanting to find Concubine Xian, but at this juncture, many people were watching his actions, so he couldn't mess up at this moment.
Finally, with the last bit of reason, he went outside the palace.
Zhou Mu watched Zhou Xing walking away in a daze, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.
At this time, Mai Shangshu chased him from behind, patted him on the shoulder and said: "The world is unpredictable, who would have thought that His Highness, who has disappeared for twenty years, is still alive? Your Majesty is too tolerant, since His Highness is still alive. If you are alive, why don't you let His Highness return to the palace earlier?"
Could it be that the reason why His Majesty has not registered a crown prince is that His Highness is waiting for you?
Zhou Mu's expression was indifferent, and he didn't answer.
Mai Shangshu continued to himself: "I don't know what kind of person His Highness is? Could he have already entered Beijing? By the way, since His Majesty knows that His Highness is still alive, there must have been secret contact?"
Zhou Mu took a look at Mai Shangshu, and then said: "Let me go first, the next official."
Mai Shangshu watched Zhou Mu walk away, secretly muttering to himself why Zhou Mu is not at all curious about where the eldest prince is now, what kind of temperament he is, and what his appearance is like?
He was very curious.
Zhou Mu walked a long way, and heard everyone discussing the First Prince.
Wan Qinghou was even more surrounded by everyone. After all, Emperor Chengde's most trusted courtier was Wan Qinghou, and he might tell Wan Qinghou any secrets.
If you really want to find an insider who knows the identity of the First Prince, then you must look for Marquis Wan Qing.
Hou Wanqing has been immersed in officialdom for many years, so he naturally learned to play Tai Chi.
Emperor Chengde didn't officially announce Zhou Mu's identity today, so he naturally couldn't say that Zhou Mu was the His Highness everyone was looking for.
Later, he pretended that he had something to do to meet the Holy Spirit, so he was able to get out of the encirclement of his colleagues.
