Tuoba Xuan's father never expected that the minister who was usually respectful and loyal to him would now stand on Tuoba Xuan's side and force him to abdicate in order to save his own life, putting pressure on him to make him submit to Tuoba Xuan.

He looked at everyone in shock and shouted, "How dare you! Are you guys rebelling?"

After scolding, his expression softened a little, and he explained to everyone with emotion and courtesy: "It's not that I don't want to abdicate. If this is good for the country, for everyone, and for the people, I will do it without hesitation. However, things are not what you think now."

He pointed at Tuoba Xuan standing aside and said coldly: "Do you really think that he can lead you to govern this country well and make the people of this country well fed and clothed? Have you forgotten what he used to be?"

"Tuoba Xuan's birth was nothing more than an accident, a mistake. For so many years, he has been like a dog, only wagging his tail and begging for mercy. He bites when he is asked to bite, and sits when he is asked to sit. Apart from these, what else has he learned? He can't read, doesn't know martial arts, let alone govern the country. Are you really at ease handing the people over to such a person?"

Tuoba Xuan listened to his father's comments on him without any expression on his face. His heart was already cold and hard enough that it would not be affected by his father's words.

After Tuoba Xuan's father finished speaking, he looked at everyone expectantly, hoping that they would come to their senses and stand on his side.

After a while, someone in the crowd suddenly spoke up: "I've seen the second prince reading and chatting a few words. He is actually very knowledgeable."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone else spoke up: "I haven't seen the Second Prince study, but I have seen him paint. I dare say that no one in the royal court can compare to the Second Prince in painting skills."

"Also, looking at the way the Second Prince attacked just now, he doesn't seem to be incapable of fighting. On the contrary, judging by the way he moved his sword, it seems that he not only knows how to fight, but also has good martial arts skills."

As Tuoba Xuan's father listened to these people's words, the expression on his face changed from disbelief to shock, and now to a little numb.

He slowly turned around and looked at Tuoba Xuan, and said word by word: "Is what they said true?"

Tuoba Xuan sneered: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, can it change anything?"

Tuoba Xuan's father said sternly: "You have evil ambitions. You have been learning calligraphy and martial arts behind my back. Have you been waiting for this day? You evil son, I raised you, but you actually planned to kill your father and seize the throne. People like you, God will not let you go."

Tuoba Xuan sneered: "God? Okay, then I'll wait for God to punish me. Now, my father, you have no choice."

"There are so many people here, and their lives depend on you. If you don't abdicate, I will have no choice but to kill everyone here. When I am the only one left in the royal court, the throne will naturally be mine. It will be legitimate and no one will dare to question it."

After Tuoba Xuan finished speaking, the first to panic were those who were still alive, especially the girls of Tuoba Xuan's father, who were about to cry their heads off.

The ministers did not intend to let him go, and they accused him harshly: "Your Majesty, do you want everyone to die here? Do you want the entire royal court to be destroyed with you?"

"Does Your Majesty want to become a sinner for all eternity?"

"Your Majesty, the Second Prince is more capable than the First Prince in both military and literary skills. Perhaps the Second Prince is more suitable for the throne."

"Yes, my king, make a decision quickly."

……

Everyone was talking at once, forcing Tuoba Xuan's father to make a decision sooner rather than later. They were afraid that if they waited too long, Tuoba Xuan would get impatient, and more people would die, and any one of them could become the unlucky one.
