The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

Once someone takes the lead, others immediately follow suit!

The outcry against Prince Rui and his heir grew louder and louder.

The guards and servants of Prince Rui's mansion showed no sign of nervousness in the face of the agitated and ferocious crowd.

They all stood still, extremely calm!

Their princess is here!

What are they afraid of?

The surrounding area was noisy and chaotic, and some people even dared to walk forward, demanding that the Prince Rui's Mansion give them an explanation!

Zheng Mingxuan knelt on the ground, but she could tell from the sounds behind her that the group of people was getting closer.

Their enthusiasm was betrayed, and their future good days were shattered. How could they not be agitated?

How should Qi Zhiyu comfort someone like this?

Did you promise them benefits?

How much would it take to completely quell their anger?

Zheng Mingxuan stared directly into Qi Zhiyu's eyes, her gaze filled with schadenfreude.

If she's having a hard time, why should Qi Zhiyu have one?

Not only was Zheng Mingxuan hoping for Qi Zhiyu to embarrass herself, but even the Prince of Wu in the alley, and the other noble families hidden in the crowd, were excitedly watching and anticipating.

These people, on the verge of losing their minds, are not easy to appease.

If this matter is not handled properly, His Majesty will surely be furious.

At that time, wouldn't Prince Rui be severely criticized?

His Majesty's impression of Prince Rui will plummet!

In this way, the disadvantage that the King of Wu had recently faced will be reversed.

Qi Jingchen sat quietly in his wheelchair, seemingly calm and collected, but in reality, his mind was racing with all sorts of thoughts.

How can we handle the current situation in order to minimize the losses?

Just then, he heard his sister chuckle softly.

It felt like just a soft sound, yet it instantly overwhelmed all the noise and rang clearly in his mind.

It instantly suppressed all his chaotic thoughts.

Qi Jingchen knew this wasn't his imagination, because all the people had shut up and were staring at his sister, waiting for her to speak.

Qi Zhiyu had a faint smile on her lips, but the words she spoke were as cold as ice knives, piercing deep into everyone's hearts.

"You...want to rebel?"

The excitement and indignation on the faces of the people were instantly replaced by panic and fear.

"Your Majesty, you are in good health. My father is also perfectly fine. Yet you are concerned about my elder brother's succession to the throne..."

"You guys are thinking really far ahead."

"What does it matter to you how the Crown Prince is?"

"You're just using this absurd reason to plot a rebellion!"

"What? You're so eager to change dynasties?"

"The king who ruined this princess's father... Tell me, who exactly do you want to support for the throne?"

A smile crept into Qi Jingchen's eyes. It had to be his sister; with just a few words, she had immediately seized the initiative.

The people were completely bewildered and frightened by the question.

They didn't mean anything by it.

They genuinely thought Prince Rui was good and respected him.

Princess Chen'an exposed the affair between the eldest princess and her husband.

Did Princess Chen'an do that herself?

It must have been Prince Rui who was helping them from behind the scenes, taking advantage of Princess Chen'an's attendance at the Princess's banquet to remove the "cancer" that was the Prince Consort.

There's also Zheng Hongshan from the Zheng family who bribed officials to secure his future.

Such greedy and incompetent officials in the court are a scourge to the people.

They had witnessed everything that Prince Rui had done and were deeply moved.

They want Prince Rui to inherit the throne and become the crown prince. What's the problem?

The people couldn't understand it, and they were even more worried about being accused of rebellion.

No one dared to make a sound; they all fell silent.

The King of Wu, who was hiding in the alley and secretly observing the situation, turned completely green.

He slammed his fist against the wall beside him.

What a Qi Zhiyu!

What a silver tongue!

If Father Emperor knew all this, what would he think of him?

King Wu stared at Zheng Mingxuan, thinking, "This pawn of mine... should be useful, right?"

"Princess, the people are only concerned about Prince Rui and the Crown Prince!" Zheng Mingxuan said loudly.

"In their hearts, Prince Rui was like a god, the one destined by Heaven."

"Of course, the Crown Prince is equally important."

Qi Zhiyu asked with amusement, "Did my older brother's leg problems start yesterday or the day before?"

Qi Zhiyu's question left Zheng Mingxuan speechless.

Qi Zhiyu's gaze swept over the crowd, and she raised her voice, "My elder brother was injured while saving people."

"What? His selfless act of saving people has become a sin in your eyes?"

The people looked at each other in bewilderment.

It seems... that's definitely not right.

Zheng Mingxuan gritted her teeth: "Everyone just feels sorry for the Crown Prince."

"How can someone destined by Heaven be physically disabled?"

Qi Zhiyu asked with amusement, "Destiny's will? Who decided that?"

"Did God give you a hint?"

"Leaving aside the other princes, let's talk about the Prince of Wu. Does he agree with this statement?"

Zheng Mingxuan was stunned for a moment. What did Qi Zhiyu mean by this?

Shouldn't Qi Zhiyu be making frantic explanations, disregarding the idea of ​​destiny?

After all, the position of crown prince has not yet been determined.

It is taboo to say that someone is destined for greatness.

"Someone come here!" Qi Zhiyu suddenly called out, "Go over there and invite the King of Wu over."

Qi Zhiyu raised her hand and pointed to the spot where the King of Wu was hiding.

The King of Wu was startled.

Qi Zhiyu actually found out?

With everyone looking over, the King of Wu naturally had no way to hide.

Before he could figure out how to respond, a guard from Prince Rui's residence came over and bowed to him, saying, "Your Highness, please come in."

King Wu smiled and calmly walked over.

"Your Highness, why didn't you show yourself when you arrived? Why are you hiding over there?" Qi Zhiyu stared at the Prince of Wu.

The King of Wu remained calm and showed no embarrassment at being caught red-handed: "I was just passing by when I saw some commotion here, so I came to see what was going on."

"What did the King of Wu see?" Qi Zhiyu asked with a smile.

King Wu glanced at the people around him before saying, "The people admire King Rui; this is the will of the people."

"Oh?" Qi Zhiyu's smile deepened. "Does the King of Wu mean... that the position of Crown Prince should belong to my father?"

The King of Wu nodded in agreement: "That's right."

"Prince Rui is indeed the one everyone hopes for!"

"Given both his abilities and character, Prince Rui should be made Crown Prince."

He wanted to fawn over Prince Rui.

He wanted to see how Prince Rui, who had no qualified heir, could sit in that position.

"King Wu is so magnanimous!" Qi Zhiyu laughed. "I didn't expect you to agree with my father!"

"I naturally agree," the King of Wu said with emotion.

"It's a pity..." King Wu changed the subject, shaking his head regretfully.

"Prince Rui was the only choice, but why did fate not favor him?"

"If he is truly destined by Heaven, how could the Prince Rui's heir be physically disabled?"

"Moreover, all the imperial physicians were helpless."

The King of Wu wanted to tell everyone that Qi Jingchen's leg would never heal and that he would never be able to stand up again!

Is this Prince Rui a product of destiny?

That's all an illusion!

No matter how outstanding Prince Rui is, if there is no qualified successor, then it is the will of Heaven!

Heaven will not let him become the crown prince!

The will of Heaven cannot be defied!
