Chapter 3
Chapter 3 — Against my will, my father became an emperor, and I became a crown prince
The prime minister's wife staggered forward, wanting to hold my hand, but in the end she faltered in fear. In the end, she only dared to grab my sleeve, raised her head and sobbingly asked:
“Are you... really no longer my Thanh Hoan?”
I looked into her eyes, and suddenly a trace of unwillingness arose in my heart. Pho Thanh Hoan is indeed dead. Giang Chi Vu falsely accused her, Pho Thanh Hoan was pushed hard by an angry Murong Hoai, his head hit the corner of the incense altar, and he died on the spot. The group of people thought she was pretending to be dead, so they directly had someone carry her to the Royal Study Room, where they made a fuss and demanded her retirement. I just arrived at that exact moment. I didn't want to deceive her, so I opened my mouth and said to the Prime Minister's wife:
“Madam, I am no longer Pho Thanh Hoan.”
“But I can take revenge on your daughter, so that those who killed her will pay the price.”
The Prime Minister's back suddenly seemed to collapse:
“Your Majesty and... What do you need me for, Princess?”
My father looked serious:
"The crown prince is stupid and incompetent. In the future, it will be difficult for him to shoulder the national responsibility."
"I have decided to depose Murong Hoai from the position of Crown Prince. Three days later, I will announce to the world at the royal court, establishing Murong Hoa as the Crown Princess."
"I want you to associate with the great ministers in the court, together support my daughter, and from now on, wholeheartedly assist her."
The Prime Minister's body trembled violently and he bowed his head to the ground:
“God... even if he wants to die, he will not give up!”
“But…” he suddenly changed his tone, “just based on this story of reincarnation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince people in the world.”
“Do you have any other method to silence people?”
My father waved his hand:
"There's no need to worry about this, I have a magic plan."
The prime minister took a deep breath, finally his eyes lingered on him for a moment, then bowed and said:
“If that's the case, please prepare first.”
After the Prime Minister left, I immediately couldn't wait and ran straight to the throne:
“Father, although ancient people were superstitious, isn't this reincarnation too unreasonable?”
"What should I do if someone else says I'm a lonely soul and a wild ghost, and my reputation is not correct?"
My father glanced at me:
"This idiot, of course you can't tell outsiders about reincarnation."
"At that time, I will announce to the world that you have an extremely precious destiny. When you were young, your body was weak and could not control your fate, so you changed your destiny with the Prime Minister's daughter, who was raised in the Prime Minister's palace all these years."
"Now that I've grown up, of course I have to go back to my roots and recognize my ancestors."
I frowned, suddenly thinking of a huge loophole:
“But the problem is that you were the Crown Princess before, right?”
“If I am truly your daughter, then aren't you and the Crown Prince brother and sister?!”
My father laughed coldly:
"Wouldn't that be better? Let's just say that Murong Hoai is an adopted son who was brought back, just a pawn used to stabilize the court. Now of course we have to give way to the true royal bloodline."
I quietly raised my thumb:
“Dad, you are truly amazing.”
“Okay, that's fine, but what if people later ask for blood to identify themselves…”
Before the words were finished, I burst out laughing first. My father also laugh along. Dropping blood to recognize yourself? What do you say about the play palace? If you add alum, even if it's not blood, it can dissolve; If you put some clear oil in, even if it's real blood, it won't dissolve.
The range of operations in this matter is very large. When we returned to the Eastern Palace, the sky was dark. As soon as he entered the temple, he encountered Murong Hoai and Giang Chi Vu. As soon as Murong Hoai saw me, he laughed coldly:
"Sure enough, you still can't bear to give up glory and wealth."
"I said I would retire you. Only Vu is my Crown Princess, but you still have the audacity to return to my Eastern Palace."
I looked at him, feeling extremely confused. As for his Eastern Palace, just a little more time and this place will be his Eastern Palace.
