CHAPTER 306: CHAPTER 295: NONE OF YOU WILL LEAVE ALIVE

Prime Minister Bai listened and then said, "Your Majesty, this must not be done. Although the Crown Prince occasionally suffers from madness, he is still the Crown Prince. Directly bypassing the Crown Prince to establish the Third Prince as Emperor might provoke public criticism against the Third Prince!" How can another prince be made Emperor while the Crown Prince is still present?

If that happens, can the position of Crown Prince even count as the heir anymore?

The succession rights of the Crown Prince can be arbitrarily stripped away; wouldn’t that lead to chaos?

Feng Qingyang glanced at Lingsu and then, with a troubled expression, said, "But the Crown Prince’s current physical condition is indeed unsuitable to take over Da Qin."

After speaking, he let out a deep sigh.

Seeing this, Prime Minister Bai immediately said, "Your Majesty, in this old minister’s humble opinion, if you insist on abdicating, you must wait until the Crown Prince’s position is abolished, or else even if you pass the throne to the Third Prince now, the people would think his accession is illegitimate and unjustified! I beg Your Majesty to endure for the sake of the royal family’s continuity for a few more days!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Qingyang felt even more comforted.

Prime Minister Bai truly understands him well!

Every word speaks directly to his heart.

Thinking of this, Feng Qingyang couldn’t help but look at Lingsu, "You see, even if I write an edict to pass the throne now, the Third Prince’s accession would still be illegitimate and unjustified!"

Moreover, he was being forced to abdicate!

...

Lingsu merely let out a cold laugh at this moment.

Then she coldly said, "Then just issue another edict to abolish the Crown Prince, isn’t it simple? Do you think I don’t know about such a simple thing?"

After speaking, she swept her gaze coldly over Prime Minister Bai and others, who looked unhappy, "Today, I must see the Third Prince become the Emperor, otherwise, none of you here will leave alive!"

Once Lingsu said this, a minister immediately rebuked angrily, "Where did you, young hussy, come from, and who gave you the audacity to speak to the Emperor in such a manner?"

Where did this woman come from that she dared to point fingers at the Emperor!

But Prime Minister Bai, after taking a glance at Lingsu, remained silent.

He knew that this woman should be the Lingsu that the Crown Prince mentioned, from the so-called hidden family.

And what the minister didn’t expect was that just as his words fell, Lingsu suddenly gestured forcefully at him.

In an instant, the minister’s body flew backward fiercely, crashing into a pillar inside the hall, and then fell to the ground unconscious.

Seeing this, Feng Qingyang immediately said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?"

Upon hearing this, Lingsu coldly said, "Now, immediately write the edict to abolish the Crown Prince. I said today, Feng Wuchen must ascend the throne."

Feng Qingyang’s face turned even more difficult to look at.

Prime Minister Bai then said at this moment, "Since it’s to pass the throne to the Third Prince, then Your Majesty, please have the Third Prince come in now and see what he thinks of this idea?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Qingyang squinted slightly, then suddenly relaxed his expression, nodded, "What Prime Minister Bai said is very true."

"Someone, invite the Third Prince to come over." Feng Qingyang said.

He wanted to see for himself whether the Third Prince’s accession was his own idea or that of this demoness.

...

When Feng Wuchen heard that he was to be summoned, he felt a bit nervous,

but upon further thought, with Lingsu present, he believed he would be alright and felt much more at ease.

Straightening his appearance, Feng Wuchen then strode towards the Imperial Study Room.
