When these words were spoken, the entire Imperial Court fell silent.
Every word echoed in the minds of the civil and military officials.
The… Crown Princess will take charge of the country?!
The Crown Princess will have the same power as His Majesty in the next 20 years?
And this was a female Crown Princess?
This, this, this… Was it appropriate?
An old official who looked old stood out, trembling. Looking at his age… he was at least a few hundred years old, and his cultivation was not particularly high. He probably relied on some medicinal pills to survive for so long.
The voice of this old official was like a bellows, like a candle in the wind. No one knew when he would suddenly fall.
“Your Majesty… The Crown Princess has only been the Crown Princess of Great Wei for a few decades. She doesn’t fully understand what it takes to be the Crown Princess.”
“This… how can we let the Crown Princess supervise the entire Great Wei on behalf of His Majesty?!”
This proved that this old official seemed to have a lot of authority and was highly respected in the Imperial Court.
At least among the people present, he was the only one who dared to stand out and say these words.
“I’ve made up my mind. My dear minister, there’s no need to say anything!”
Chen Fengyin did not make things difficult for this old minister who would suddenly die at any moment.
He waved his hand, he said, “I can no longer suppress my current cultivation level. I’ve also communicated with a few imperial ancestors in advance. They are not willing to help me manage the Great Wei Dynasty. Apart from the Crown Princess helping me manage the Great Wei Dynasty, who else can I do?”
“Could it be… Do you want me to let other princes take charge of Great Wei?”
The old official was stunned and slowly retreated.
He did not say anything else.
He had already said this much. Number One would be taking charge of Great Wei for the next 20 years. That was basically a done deal.
No one dared to accept His Majesty’s last sentence.
Once that sentence was followed up, did it mean that you had other intentions?
Did It mean that you wanted to sow discord between the royal family members?
No one could withstand these few hats being thrown down!
At this time, the happiest people were naturally the people from Number One’s camp.
However, they were all a bunch of old foxes. They did not reveal the excitement and surprise in their hearts on the surface. Instead, they hid it in the bottom of their hearts.
There was only one exception —
Number Two!
The smile on Number Two’s face was brighter than anyone else’s. It was as if all the thoughts in her heart were written on her face.
It was not because her emotional quotient was too low. It was because Number Two believed that in the world of the simulator, there was no need to be so shrewd and scheming!
How tiring would that be?
Number Two in the Immortal cultivation simulator had completely liberated her natural instincts.
Today’s Imperial Court meeting was a little longer than usual.
It was only in the afternoon.
The crowd dispersed.
However, Chen Qianxue was left behind.
In the main hall.
Only Chen Fengyin and Chen Qianxue were left, this ‘father and daughter’.
“Chang Ning, don’t stand there. Sit beside me.”
Chen Fengyin’s divine thought moved, and a large golden chair with a flood dragon carved on the back appeared beside the dragon chair out of thin air. He spoke to Number One below.
Number One walked over obediently and sat quietly on the large chair beside him.
He looked at Number One’s calm expression.
Chen Fengyin could not help but sigh, “If Huai Qian were still alive, he would definitely be so excited that he would be incoherent if he was allowed to supervise the country for 20 years. But Chang Ning, you are different from him. Your calmness has exceeded my expectations. There seems to be nothing in this world that can shock you so much.”
When he spoke to Number One, Chen Fengyin’s tone did not have any dignity, nor did it have any sense of oppression.
It was as if an ordinary father and daughter were chatting about family matters.
“If the eldest brother of the Emperor were still alive, he wouldn’t be too excited,” Number One replied modestly. “Even some of the ministers often praise the eldest brother of the Emperor for his extraordinary bearing and talent as a benevolent monarch.”
Chen Fengyin laughed out loud. “Then you’re wrong. Those fellows are good at sucking up to me. Can’t I return the favor to that Brat Huai Qian?”
After laughing for a while, Chen Fengyin slightly restrained the smile on his face.
He suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked a frightening question, “Chang Ning, do you know why I didn’t put you in jail?”
If Number Two was here, he would definitely be shocked to the point that his eyes widened.
Because this sentence meant that… Chen Fengyin had never been kept in the dark.
Chen Fengyin, the Emperor, knew everything that Number One and Number Two had done!
She had even plotted to kill the previous Crown Princess!
When he asked this question, Chen Fengyin observed Number One’s expression.
However, what surprised him was…
Chen Qianxue’s expression was very calm.
It was as if his words did not cause any waves in Chen Qianxue’s heart.
“Because you couldn’t bear to part with me, Father?” Chen Qianxue did not feel like a disaster was imminent. She asked curiously as if she was chatting with Chen Fengyin.
“Only half correct.” Chen Fengyin closed his eyes as if he was recalling something.
After waiting for a long time, he opened his eyes. “I really couldn’t bear to part with such an outstanding daughter. I could not bear to mercilessly thrown you into prison, and ordered to be executed. However, there is another reason…”
