The Rebirth of the Fifth Lady

Chapter 245 Rumors
Brother Nine did not expect that the emperor would let him speak out. To be honest, in his heart, he would rather let Brother Eight ascend the throne in the future.

The talent of the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother is obvious to all. It is good for his own elder brother, the fifth elder brother, to be an idle prince.

After thinking for a moment, Brother Nine twitched the corners of his mouth, then glanced at the surrounding ministers and brothers, and finally his eyes fell on Huang Ama who was sitting on the Golden Luan Hall, and then he spoke slowly.

"Huang Ama, my son thinks that the starling is more suitable for the crown prince than the fifth brother, not to mention that the fifth brother has no intention of the throne. There is also the rumor that spread in the capital before."

The official who recommended Yinqi's cheeks twitched when he heard this, and glanced nervously at the fourth elder brother Lian who was standing next to Yinqi, and found that the fourth elder brother had no instructions on his hands, feet, or face, so the official had no choice but to put He swallowed the words he was about to say again.

Instead, he looked at the emperor sitting on the golden throne hall with a respectful look, but the expression on the emperor's face was very calm, and the official could not see anything that could make him doubtful.

After a while, the emperor asked in a deep voice, "What rumors?"

The officials and the princes below were taken aback for a moment, those who had a pretty good memory remembered the nursery rhyme that had been passed down in the capital a long time ago, while those who didn't know the rumor looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Which one of you knows?" Seeing that no one answered, the emperor hurriedly asked again.

But the fourteenth elder brother stood up and replied with a frown: "I know the emperor, it's that the nine sons of the dragon are different, the fourth son took the dragon chair, the eighth son and the nine sons lost their lives, and the other six sons did not." Better than 'rumours."

The fourth elder brother's face immediately turned dark when he heard this, and he hurriedly walked to the center of the Qianqing Palace and knelt down, his face was also a little uneasy, and then he said with some fear: "Huang Ama, these rumors are clearly demons to confuse the public. There may be suspicions of sowing discord."

When this nursery rhyme first came out, the fourth elder brother was really taken aback. The nursery rhyme showed the contradictions between him, the eighth elder brother and the ninth elder brother inside and out. Think of him and his two younger brothers.

After the emperor heard the words of the fourteenth elder brother, he also remembered the scene when Liang Jiugong reported the nursery rhyme to him in the past. The emperor also sent the secret guards to investigate in private, and found that the fourth elder brother really treated the eighth elder brother and the eighth elder brother. Brother Nine was wary.

Coupled with the absurd behavior of the prince at that time, the emperor believed that the nursery rhyme might have some hints, and he became more suspicious of the fourth elder brother. Thinking of the situation of the other eight sons in the rumor, the emperor looked at the kneeling child with black lines on his face. Fourth elder brother.

Then he said angrily and sharply: "Si elder brother, get up, since it's a rumor, why should you take it to heart?"

The fourth elder brother got up quickly, but seeing the emperor's expression seemed a little displeased, the fourth elder brother couldn't help trembling in his heart.

After he stood still, he sighed helplessly in his heart: I am afraid that he will miss the throne in this life.

Next, what the emperor said made the fourth elder brother fall to the bottom.

"Since all the nobles are recommending the eighth elder brother, then the Ministry of Rites will draft the regulations for the appointment of the prince as soon as possible."

All of a sudden, the voices of congratulations to the eighth elder brother in the court continued, and the eighth elder brother was also very pleasantly surprised. Unexpectedly, Huang Ama would appoint him as the crown prince. His efforts in government affairs in the past few years have not been in vain. Your Majesty Naturally, he is already impressed.

Of course, the fourth elder brother also joined the team to congratulate the eighth elder brother. Although he tried his best to hide his emotions, it could be seen from his eyes that he was in a very unhappy mood.

When Wanyue heard Yinqi talking about the emperor announcing Yinhu as the crown prince in the palace, her mouth suddenly became O-shaped, a little unbelievable. She thought it would take at least three to five years for the emperor to give up. For the prejudice against the eighth elder brother, I didn't expect the emperor to appoint him as the prince so soon.

Seeing Wanyue's dazed expression, Yinqi thought she didn't believe her, so she said again in a serious tone: "This matter is absolutely true, Huang Ama has ordered the Ministry of Rites to handle the appointment of the crown prince."

Wanyue was stunned for a while, blinked her eyes and looked at Yinqi, and replied, "I didn't expect the eighth brother to be canonized as the prince so soon, I think the fourth brother should also give up on the throne, right?"

Hearing this, Yinqi tugged Wanyue's hand, "Don't worry about the fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law, Huang Ama has already established a crown prince, I believe the fourth brother will not refute Huang Ama's decision in the open Bar."

Wanyue smiled muffledly, Yinqi really didn't understand his fourth brother, and didn't know that he was a ruthless character at all.

While being happy for the eighth elder brother, Wanyue thought about it, and asked Yinqi: "The eighth younger brother has been made the prince by the emperor, why don't we bring some congratulatory gifts to the eighth younger brother's house to congratulate him? In the palace, we won’t be able to see each other all the time. I’ll also drop by to see Siyan.”

Yinqi was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked at Wanyue's stomach with strange eyes, "You are still pregnant, so it's not too close to the eighth younger brother's house, why don't you just forget about it?"

Nanny Li, who was standing behind Wanyue, couldn't help but said: "Yes, miss, what the prince said is very true, you are pregnant now, and I was worried that your body would not be able to bear it in the past to celebrate."

Seeing that neither Yinqi nor Nanny Li wanted to go to Prince Yong's mansion to congratulate her, Wanyue quickly waved her hands and began to say: "My lord, just let me go, the fetal image in my stomach is already fixed, and nothing will happen. Yes, besides the fact that the eighth younger brother has been made the crown prince, it would be unreasonable for us not to congratulate him."

Yinqi couldn't resist her, thinking that Wanyue and the Eighth Brother's family were still close on weekdays, so he reluctantly nodded in agreement.

As a result, the two arrived a few feet away from Prince Yong's mansion, and found that the carriage had stopped for a long time. The coachman looked around anxiously at the crowd in front of him, and couldn't help sighing. He opened the curtain of the carriage to take a look, only to find that the entrance of the palace was blocked, and it was difficult for their carriage to move forward.

Yinqi glanced at Wanyue, and asked worriedly: "It seems that the carriage will not be able to go forward for a while, let's get off the horse and walk there."

Wanyue nodded, and Yinqi helped her get out of the carriage. The two of them seemed to be noticed by the officials who came to congratulate and were blocked in Prince Yong's mansion as soon as they got out of the carriage.

All the officials first courted Yinqi and Wanyue, and then gave way to Yinqi and Wanyue one after another, so that the two were able to enter Prince Yong's mansion.

However, those officials at the door were blocked by Prince Yong's guards, bluntly saying that it is not appropriate for Prince Yong to contact the ministers now, as long as the ministers care about the people, Prince Yong will naturally not treat them badly in the future.

All the ministers left angrily after hearing what the guards at the gate of Prince Lian's mansion said.
