Overcoming all difficulties, the princess is reborn to become the empress

Before the hour of Yin, Su Changfeng and Su Yunxuan carried Su Shaoyu and led Bai Shu, Bai Shu and others into the Empress Dowager's palace.

After the hour of Yin, drums sounded loudly in the court.

At the hour of Mao, the ministers who hurried to the Yunxiang Hall to attend the court meeting in the dawn discovered that the Emperor Su Jibei, who had not been seen for nearly a month, was sitting on the dragon throne.

A curtain appeared behind the dragon throne at some point.

Behind the curtain, the empress dowager, who had been in control of the court for nearly half a month, was also sitting upright.

Although the scene was a bit strange, the majesty of the emperor and the empress dowager holding court at the same time frightened the ministers so much that they dared not discuss it too much and they quickly lined up.

For a moment, there was silence in the Yunxiang Hall.

The emperor's personal eunuch Sheng Xing stepped forward and read out the imperial edict.

"The Crown Prince Su Changfeng is elegant and graceful, and cares about the world. He has inherited the loyalty and bravery of Prince Xu and the erudition of the Grand Tutor. He not only helped the Emperor find Princess Yunsheng who had been away from home for many years, but also assisted Princess Yunxuan in disaster relief in recent days. The Emperor and the Queen Mother, in consideration of his kindness, have appointed Su Changfeng to succeed his grandfather as the Grand Tutor of Yunsheng."

When Sheng Xing's voices stopped, no one was dissatisfied.

Most of Master Bai's group looked regretful.

Some people who could not see the overall situation clearly felt relieved when they thought about Master Bai's training and attention to Su Changfeng.

Most of the people in King Xu's faction were calm and composed.

Although they had not noticed how much King Xu valued Su Changfeng before, blood is thicker than water since ancient times, and Su Changfeng is always King Xu's grandson, so naturally they would not object.

The two largest forces in the Yunsheng court had no objection, and as it did not endanger personal interests, some neutral factions chose not to speak out.

"Send the Grand Tutor to the court."

Following Sheng Xing's loud shout, Su Changfeng, carrying the imperial edict of succession, strode into the hall under the gaze of all the ministers.

After the ceremony of monarch-subject ceremony was performed, Shengxing obeyed the order, bent over and took the imperial edict of succession from Su Changfeng with both hands.

After returning to his seat and bowing to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager one by one, Shengxing straightened his back, held up the imperial edict and shouted to everyone: "The Emperor and the Empress Dowager drafted this imperial edict last night."

After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned from the edict of succession in his hand to Su Changfeng.

This new Grand Tutor not only has the support of both Prince Xu's Mansion and the Grand Tutor's faction, but is also trusted by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

He actually gave the edict of succession to him for safekeeping.

Some people think that even if he lost the chance to inherit the throne at the beginning, his position in the court in the future should not be underestimated.

Some people began to speculate on the intentions of the Emperor and the Queen Mother.

While everyone was thinking silently, Shengxing shouted again from above.

"Send it to Princess Yunxuan."

After Su Yunxuan entered the palace, Su Changfeng had already asked people to spread the news that Princess Yunxuan had returned to Yunsheng.

Moreover, in the past half month or so, all his disaster relief and rescue activities were carried out in the name of Princess Yunxuan.

The public opinion of welcoming and being grateful for Princess Yunxuan's return to Yunsheng gradually spread in the capital of Yunsheng.

When people heard the news that Su Yunxuan had entered the palace, they were not too surprised. Instead, they were more curious about the appearance of the princess.

Before the little princess left Yunsheng, it was rumored that she was not only talented but also extremely beautiful.

The Yunsheng royal family is full of beauties. It is rumored that their little princess's appearance at the age of seven surpassed that of any previous royal woman.

However, after leaving Yun Sheng and wandering around for many years, I wonder if her beauty is as stunning as the rumors say...

Because of this curiosity, everyone stretched their necks and looked forward to it.

As a result, after looking for a long time, they didn't see the real person, but saw their new tutor striding out of the hall.

After Su Changfeng left, thirty-two palace maids dressed in gorgeous costumes came in holding lanterns.

They divided into two teams to block the court officials on both sides. After they cleared the way, Su Yunxuan came in.

Supported by Su Changfeng, she walked in slowly amid the astonished gazes of everyone.

The two of them were still wearing the same formal attire as when they entered Fenglan's court last time, both mainly white.

This time, in addition to the large blooming Yunxuan flowers on Su Yunxuan's dress, a stalk of osmanthus was embroidered on the chest.

The same osmanthus stems were also added to Su Changfeng's dress.

The patterns on their clothes complement each other and are obviously matched.

It’s a pity that the court officials did not receive such a clear hint in time, as so many pairs of eyes were only focused on staring at and admiring the two of them’s beautiful faces.

So when Shengxing conveyed the emperor's intention to marry Princess Yunxuan to Su Changfeng, all the ministers were shocked.

After a long period of heated discussions, several old ministers, after repeated consideration, stood up to express their opposition without caring about their so-called camps.

The main reason for the opposition came from the firm additional conditions for peace talks that Feng Lan sent over in a hurry day and night: Princess Yunxuan must marry Feng Lan before Feng Lan would agree to peace talks between the two countries.

They said that now that Yunsheng was facing natural disasters, it was not appropriate to start a war with Fenglan. The most sensible choice at present was to improve the friendship between the two countries through marriage, just like in the past.

The petitions submitted by several people did not contain any factional interests, but were purely for the purpose of protecting the country and benefiting the people. After a while, they attracted the support of more ministers.

Although it is said that the ministers regard the king as their heaven, there must be a country and people before there is a king. If the country is gone, what is the use of these court officials!

When it comes to their own interests, even if Prince Xu did not stand up to express his position, and even with the previous paving and prestige of Tutor Bai, more and more people still chose to stand up and oppose the Emperor's decision to marry Su Yunxuan to Su Changfeng.

The voices of opposition are growing louder.

Su Jibei pulled himself together and raised his hands. Shengxing took another step forward and shouted in a high voice, "Silence! Next, read the edict of succession."

Upon hearing the imperial edict of succession, the ministers, who had basically reached a consensus on their attitudes, shut up and became quiet again.

Shengxing cleared his throat, straightened his back, and slowly unfolded the edict.

All the ministers stretched their necks again, some with hope in their hearts, some with worry on their faces.

In their minds, both Su Changfeng, the prince of Prince Xu's Mansion, and Su Shaoyu, the emperor's younger brother, have the opportunity to inherit the throne.

Su Shaoyu, all signs indicate that he is a playboy and incompetent person who is not fit for any important position.

Most people previously thought that compared to Su Shaoyu, Su Changfeng had a better chance of becoming the new emperor of Yunsheng.

Su Changfeng was carefully cultivated by Master Bai, and had the military support of his grandfather King Xu and his father General Baoqi. His only weakness was that he had been away from the power center of Yunsheng for many years.

At the beginning of today's court meeting, Su Changfeng was named Taifu. On the surface, it seems that he can only be a minister, but judging by the emperor and the queen mother's appreciation for him, it is possible that this is just a prelude...

In the center of the hall.

Glancing at the different expressions of the crowd, Su Yunxuan hooked Su Changfeng's hand under her sleeve and gave him a comforting look.

Su Changfeng held her hand tightly and did not let go.

Sheng Xing started chanting at the top of his voice:

"By the will of heaven, may Yunsheng prosper.

My only child, Princess Yunxuan, has been both virtuous and talented since childhood, and has been extremely intelligent. After years of traveling among the people, she has finally become a benevolent person who is not afraid of difficulties and cares about the world. The Queen Mother and I have unanimously decided to pass the throne to my son Yunxuan. I hope that all the ministers will work together to assist her and support the country.

Admire this! "
