C2794 It Just so Happens to be Him!

Seeing that no one objected, Princess Qi also secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Although because of the matter of eradicating the Wu family, it made her feel in the hearts of all the ministers in capital and the royal family. Her status suddenly increased. Especially since Wu Yan was still under heavy protection. Being caught meant that Princess Qi had an expert by her side. There was a force that they didn't know about.

Therefore, these people were very respectful towards Princess Qi. Princess Qi also had the chance to decide on a candidate for the throne. However, this was a big matter after all. Princess Qi was also afraid that there would be people who would object. If there were fewer people who opposed it, then it would be fine. If there were too many people who opposed it, she was afraid that she would not be able to suppress it.

Fortunately, no one objected. This allowed her plan to succeed by half. The next half would be the candidate of New Emperor.

Thinking of this, Princess Qi looked at the Eighth Prince in the hall. Then, she said loudly, "Since no one is against the establishment of a new Emperor, I suggest that we choose Eight His Highness the Prince as the new Emperor of our Great Lu Dynasty!"

As soon as Princess Qi's voice faded, the entire hall could be heard with a pin drop!

Everyone raised their heads and looked at Princess Qi in surprise. They did not expect that Princess Qi would say such a candidate.

Including the Eighth Prince himself!

Everyone thought that Princess Qi would be among the other princes besides the Eighth Prince. Choose a prince as the Emperor of the Great Lu Dynasty. No one was too surprised because in the hearts of the ministers, the chances of these princes ascending to the throne were almost the same. No one had the absolute advantage. Even First Prince, who felt good about himself, was only slightly better than the other princes. If one were to say that they had a greater advantage than the other princes... That might not be the case.

However, no one expected that Princess Qi did not propose to the princes. Instead, she chose the eighth prince who had been 'eliminated' by her. This was really out of everyone's expectation.

The Eighth Prince himself looked at Princess Qi dumbfoundedly. When he heard his name from Princess Qi's mouth, it was this expression that he really did not expect. He actually had a chance. Furthermore, he was really chosen by Princess Qi!

Previously, when Princess Qi hurriedly left his mother's place, the Eighth Prince was the same as the others, feeling that he had already been eliminated. He had even made preparations for this. No matter who was selected, it wouldn't be him.

However, the final result was him!

After the shock, the Eighth Prince was overjoyed!

Yes, he was overjoyed. The feeling of going from hell to heaven... It was truly wonderful. Just as he thought he had been eliminated... He found out that he had actually won, such a reversal... How could he not be excited?

He was the emperor! That was something that he had dreamed of, and it was something that the other princes wanted to do. However, there was only one throne. Compared to the other princes, the Eighth Prince did not have any advantages. However, the throne was now in his hands. How could he not be overjoyed?

However, at the same time that the Eighth Prince was overjoyed, it was also the doubts and anger of the other princes! They felt that they had been fooled!

Before Princess Qi said the Eighth Prince's name, they all felt that... They felt that they might be chosen and that they had the advantage. However, Princess Qi did not choose them in the end. Instead, she chose one. In their opinion, how could they not be angry at those who had been eliminated? How could they not be angry?

They even felt like they had been played.

It turned out that after Princess Qi met the Eighth Prince, she didn't eliminate him. Instead, she had chosen him. That was why Princess Qi did not see the other princes. That was why Princess Qi decided to announce this matter in the morning assembly today. What did it mean that both parties did not agree on the terms and that the Eighth Prince had already been eliminated? These were all lies. It was the combination of the Eighth Prince and Princess Qi who lied!

Thinking about how the Eighth Prince had pretended to be sad after being eliminated, the princes felt the anger in their hearts. They couldn't suppress it. They thought that this was the Eighth Prince after knowing that they had been selected. He was trying to trick them and make them laugh!

How could the person involved not know about the matter of selecting the emperor? How could Princess Qi easily give up her authority? Both parties must have reached an agreement before deciding on this matter. Therefore, the Eighth Prince must have known about the outcome a long time ago.

However, under such circumstances, the Eighth Prince still wanted to put on an act for them to see. He wanted to see them make a fool of themselves. Even Princess Qi who left Consort Li's residence in a hurry was also putting on an act! It was to deceive them!

The more these princes thought about it, the more confused they became. It was precisely because they had such thoughts that they were very angry with Princess Qi and the Eighth Prince in their hearts!

"Isn't this a little inappropriate? Why is it him? What qualifications does he have? Why not me?" The furious First Prince had lost his mind. He looked up at Princess Qi and questioned her angrily.

If the person standing on top was Wu Yan, then, no matter how dissatisfied First Prince was in his heart, he did not dare to express it because Wu Yan's power and influence... It had already far surpassed him, the prince. Furthermore, Wu Yan had already stood tall in the Great Lu Dynasty for many years. It wasn't something that an ordinary person could casually question, not even if he was a prince!

However, Princess Qi was different. Although she relied on her thunderous means... After eliminating Wu Yan, besides the Wu family, it made everyone respect her. However, she was a woman after all. In this society, a woman's status was slightly lower. Furthermore, the image she had in mind... There was no way to make others fear her. First Prince thought that his status was not lower than Princess Qi's. He did not refute her before because she helped him to ascend to the throne. But now, Princess Qi had actually chosen the Eighth Prince as the Emperor. This made First Prince unable to bear it anymore, especially when he thought that she was lying to him. When he saw her make a fool of herself, First Prince didn't care about it anymore.

Therefore, he couldn't help but question Princess Qi.

"That's right. Why should it be him? He's just a person with no ability. Why should he be the Emperor of our Great Lu Dynasty?"

"That's right! I object as well!"

With First Prince taking the lead, the other princes also voiced their objections. Their faces were full of anger and dissatisfaction. Clearly, they were very dissatisfied with Princess Qi's arrangement.

As for the ministers, no matter what they thought, at this moment, none of them said anything. Firstly, they did not want to interfere. Otherwise, if they were to stand on the wrong side in the end, it would be a disaster for them. Secondly, it was the princes who were objecting, which was more like a family matter of the royal family. They were naturally unable to say anything either.1
