"..."

Silence again.

Prince:  ̄□ ̄||

Unexpectedly, after Chu Zhongtian said "everyone's expectation", it was over.

Does he mean that his enthronement as the Crown Prince is popular, but his appointment as Regent is not popular?

Well what does that mean!

He couldn't help but get angry.

Chu Zhongtian knew clearly in his mind that he must not give in even a little bit, otherwise there would be endless troubles. By then, he might even be ridden on the head by the prince and pee and shit there.

The two sides maintained a standoff.

In this way, after an unknown amount of time, the prince finally stopped thinking about issuing an edict.

He put on a humble attitude and said, "I have no experience in supervising a country, so I don't know how to do it specifically. Mr. Chu, all the lords, if there is anything wrong, please bear with me."

After these words were spoken, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Zhongtian bowed and said, "Your Highness is too modest. Please exercise the imperial power and attend the court."

The prince nodded, turned and entered the Golden Palace.

Tao responded to Chu Zhongtian's look.

"Take it easy!"

As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the palace gate and reminded: "There are many pits inside~"

Chu Zhongtian nodded, straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, led a group of officials up the stone steps, and slowly walked into the Golden Palace with the prince.

Entering the palace, everyone's eyes were fixed on the dragon throne.

The second big pit came unexpectedly.

Chu Zhongtian looked at Tao Ying.

Tao Ying understood and looked at Xie Chengxuan.

Xie Chengxuan understood and looked... looked at his toes.

The three of them completed the chain of blame-

Grand Secretary → Minister of Rites → Right Vice Minister of Rites → The ground under the feet of the Right Vice Minister of Rites.

Chu Zhongtian:  ̄□ ̄||

Seeing the prince walking towards the throne, he knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he coughed violently.

"cough……"

The prince stopped walking, his expression stiff.

He turned his head, searching.

Tao Ying stood up and said loudly: "Your Highness, according to the etiquette, the position of the regent should be on the right side of the dragon throne, with a high seat to overlook the ministers."

The so-called "looking down on the ministers" is a flattering statement.

Tao Ying said this in order to give the prince a psychological massage so that it would not be so difficult for him to accept.

Unfortunately, the massage effect was very average.

The prince's face was grim.

"Lord Tao's words are really interesting. The Crown Prince is the regent. Except for matters such as the civil and military officials paying homage to the emperor, tribute from foreign small countries, and border deployments, the rest of the affairs do not need to be reported to the emperor and will be handled directly by the Crown Prince. Why do we have to move an extra chair before we can sit down?"

He walked straight to the throne.

Chu Zhongtian immediately stepped out.

"Your Highness!"

The prince paused, secretly resenting, but still turned around politely.

There was no way. Chu Zhongtian had been teaching in Wenhua Palace and was the prince's teacher, but the prince turned a deaf ear to his teacher's words.

"Mr. Chu, do you have any different opinions?"

"Your Highness, what you just said should be the deeds of Emperor Renzong of the previous dynasty when he was regent. The history books record that Emperor Renzong, 'during his spare time in court, he never put down his books, and his clothes were loose and broad, like those of a Confucian scholar.'"

"You! @#*¥%..."

The prince almost uttered gibberish.

Chu Zhongtian's meaning was very clear, that is, the prince was not as good as Emperor Renzong of the previous dynasty. What he said just now was almost like pointing at his nose and educating him.

A strong smell of gunpowder filled the Golden Throne Hall.

The muscles on the prince's cheeks twitched, and the light from the candle cast shadows on his face.

Chu Zhongtian turned a blind eye.

He continued, "In every dynasty, every prince wanted to assist the emperor from the bottom of his heart, but some of them succeeded, while others became mediocre."

The prince snorted coldly.

"Mr. Chu, are you questioning me?"

"I believe that your aspirations are sincere and that they are not just a whim. However, it is not enough to have lofty ambitions alone. As the regent, you should be alert and always strictly require yourself to abide by the rules of etiquette."

At this point, the real purpose is revealed.

The prince said, "Ritual system...Okay, I understand."

He nodded to the eunuch standing guard in front of the emperor and ordered: "Move a chair and put it on the right side of the dragon throne, right next to it."

The word "right next to" was almost uttered through gritted teeth.

Tao Ying's face was as black as ink.

This is a determination to do it to the end...

Now, the emperor is just bedridden, but the prince is already so unrestrained. If the emperor really dies, the prince will probably fly to the sky with wings.

We must not let him do whatever he wants!

Tao Ying stepped out.

"Your Highness, the position of Regent..."

Before he could finish his words, Chu Zhongtian stepped forward and interrupted him.

He said to the crown prince: "If your highness takes the previous emperor Renzong as a model, you should know that Emperor Renzong had four experiences of regent. The first two times he was regent, he held the seal and ascended to the Wenhua Palace."

Wenhua Hall...

The prince clenched his fists.

He lowered his head, seemingly in deep thought, but in fact he was staring at the civil and military officials, especially Chu Zhongtian, with resentment.

The Golden Palace was silent and no one spoke.

The ministers were waiting.

Finally, the prince raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Good! Very good! Since you, Mr. Chu, have already said this, how can I not obey you?"

He waved his hand.

"Someone, please move to Wenhua Hall."

Outside the Meridian Gate.

The sun has risen, the sunlight is shining brightly, and it feels warm on my body.

Li Qingcha stretched lazily.

Judging from the time, the morning court should have ended by now, but I didn't see the officials filing out. It seemed that there were too many things piled up in the past few days and they couldn't be dealt with in a short time.

At this time, a voice sounded,

"My Lord, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has summoned you to the palace to report on your duties."

Li Qingcha looked up and found that the person in front of him was the eunuch beside the emperor. He was immediately surprised.

"Why isn't the eunuch serving in the Qianqing Palace?"

The eunuch had a wry smile on his face.

"Why else could it be? Today is the Crown Prince's first day as regent, and the Queen Mother is worried that he can't handle it, so she specially...Okay, my Lord, don't think too much, and follow me to the palace. Time is running out, and all the lords and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are worried as hell."

"That's...ok."

Although he still had some unanswered questions in his mind, Li Qingcha did not ask any more questions.

The two of them entered the palace through the corner gate.

The strange thing was that they passed by the Jinluan Palace, and even the Zhonghe Hall and Baohe Hall, and did not stop when they were about to reach the Qianqing Gate.

Li Qingcha was confused.

"Isn't he in the Golden Palace?"

The chief eunuch sighed and recounted the conflict between the ministers and the prince.

tsk...

Li Qingcha couldn't help but be amazed.

I didn't expect the Crown Prince to be so impatient, and the civil servant group headed by Chu Zhongtian was so tough. Such intense sparks were created on the first day of the Crown Prince's regentship.

The struggle for power is a life-and-death struggle, and there is really no room for compromise.

In fact, Li Qingcha himself had no respect for the imperial power, so he thought it was okay to let the prince sit on the dragon throne.

But she also understands Chu Zhongtian.

Because the regent caused too many troubles.

For example, Wu Zetian, from a certain perspective, rose to power by acting as regent.

The Tang Dynasty emperors of the Li family may have inherited hypertension. This was the case with Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi. His high blood pressure was so severe that he even became blind.

If the body is not good, someone needs to supervise the country.

But he did not dare to let Crown Prince Li Xiangan go, because if the crown prince acted as regent, he might directly succeed to the throne.

Therefore, Li Zhi thought of an extremely coquettish operation -

The two saints are here.

This is the legendary emperor and empress being one.

Therefore, during the years when Li Zhi became blind due to high blood pressure, Wu Zetian was actually in charge of the government, and the empress became regent.

The final result...

The only female emperor in Chinese history.

There are many similar precedents.

Chu Zhongtian is a modest gentleman who is dedicated to the public good. Naturally, he does not want the prince to seize power when the emperor's physical condition is still unclear, so a fight between the two sides is an inevitable result.

Li Qingcha followed the chief eunuch to the front of Wenhua Palace.

The eunuch cleared his throat.

"The newly promoted Wuding Marquis Li Qingcha wants to see you."

Originally, there were many discussions in the Wenhua Hall, but after hearing this shout, they instantly quieted down, as if a magic of silence was cast.

There was no need to listen to the announcement. Li Qingcha straightened his robe, adjusted his waist, and walked straight into the hall.

Everyone saluted her.

The prince said, "Marquis Wu Ding, you have made a great contribution to setting up a school in Bulun during your mission to the demon tribe."
