My system is three thousand years ahead of time.

Empress Dowager Li was obviously much happier when she saw the emperor coming.

There was a smile on her lips.

She had been worried about pacifying Queen Wang and several concubines, and now that the Emperor of the Great Zhou was here, she could pass the blame on to the Emperor.

Empress Dowager Li sat in the first seat, and when the servants brought plates of food made from precious spiritual objects to the table, she greeted everyone with a smile to eat.

Cheng Guang just couldn't understand the Emperor of the Great Zhou's psychology, and didn't know why he suddenly let him go, but at the same time he didn't dare to show up again, and silently lowered his head to be a dry eater.

The food at the family banquet was delicious, but in this situation where he was waiting to die, but not completely dead, it was basically tasteless.

"Guang'er, this is your favorite Eight Treasures Chicken. Many nobles in Kyoto like this. It is said to have the effect of strengthening yang and replenishing the spirit. Eat more."

Wu's eyebrows introduced softly, and put the chicken that was as bright as a treasure into Cheng Guang's bowl. It was white and rosy, and quite exquisite.

It is outrageous that chicken in this world can grow into such a shape.

The eyes of the Great Zhou Emperor swept over at the same time.

Cheng Guang's heart was slightly shocked, and he agreed, and quickly finished the food that Princess Yuemei picked for him.

If no one knew that he was a fake prince, he would still shamelessly call her mother and grandmother, but now under the gaze of the Great Zhou Emperor, Cheng Guang felt guilty and panicked.

Perhaps it was because of nervousness and confusion, his body was tense and his expression was slightly stiff.

Cheng Guang knew that if he continued like this, even if the Great Zhou Emperor didn't say anything, he would probably show a different state from the previous prince and be exposed.

His body began to relax.

At this time, Cheng Guang's fate was not in his control. He had to continue to mix in the circle of big men, which made him suffer every moment.

The eyes of the Great Zhou Emperor did not stay on Cheng Guang for too long.

He glanced at him quickly and looked away.

Queen Wang, who was standing by, probably saw that the time was almost up, so she said, "Your Majesty, the blood pool is about to open, but the decision on the choice of the crown prince has been delayed again and again. It is better to make a decision as soon as possible."

Queen Wang started the topic, and everyone at the banquet put down their bowls and chopsticks, and their eyes fell on the Emperor of Da Zhou.

It seemed that they wanted to know who the Emperor of Da Zhou would let be the crown prince.

The Emperor of Da Zhou took a sip of tea slowly, and after looking around, his eyes finally fell on Queen Mother Li.

"Mother, which child do you think is more promising?"

Queen Mother Li waved her hand and said, "Don't ask me about the emperor. I think all the children are good. I am also very entangled about who to choose. Let the emperor decide for himself."

The Emperor of Da Zhou laughed and shook his head, then said, "I do have a candidate in my mind."

When the Emperor of Da Zhou finished speaking, everyone present, except Queen Mother Li, Princess Yuemei, Cheng Guang, and Wu Ling, who seemed to be a heartless bully, were slightly worried.

"Your Majesty, who is your candidate?" Queen Wang asked the question that everyone wanted to ask the most.

Everyone stared at the majestic face of the Great Zhou Emperor, probably wanting to see whose face the Great Zhou Emperor's eyes would eventually fall on.

The Great Zhou Emperor smiled, and suddenly stretched out his hand and slowly pointed at Wu Ling, the most inconspicuous person in the corner.

"That's her."

"Wu Ling, come here."

Wu Ling was just like Cheng Guang at this time, still eating in silence. Whether it was the emperor's family banquet, the prince, or the blood pool dispute, she thought it had nothing to do with her.

When Wu Ling heard the emperor calling her, her first reaction was that she had heard it wrong, but there was silence in her ears, and the air seemed to solidify a little.

She noticed something was wrong, and raised her head in confusion, but she saw that everyone at the table was looking at her.

Then she looked at the Great Zhou Emperor's eyes, which were soft and full of majesty.

"I, this, what happened to my father?" Wu Ling was stunned.

"Come here."

Wu Ling saw the Great Zhou Emperor called out again. In the public eye, she didn't dare to act too presumptuous. She hurried forward and carefully kept a distance from the Great Zhou Emperor.

The scene was so quiet at this time.

Princess Yuemei and Cheng Guang were fine, and were not much touched, but the others were like sluggish, staring at the scene in front of them.

Under the attention of the crowd, Wu Ling obviously felt extremely uneasy, lowered his head, as if he wanted to bury it in his chest.

"Emperor, why did you choose her? She is still a woman..."

Empress Dowager Li was also shocked at this time and wondered.

Only Empress Dowager Li dared to ask this question at this time. Even if others were in a state of turmoil in their hearts, they did not dare to question the emperor's decision.

The Great Zhou Emperor stood up and put one hand on Wu Ling's shoulder.

"I chose her for a reason."

try{ggauto;} catch(ex){}

"First, I have consulted the star-gazing official to look at everyone's luck, and there is a shadow of the Purple Star in her fate."

"Second, her royal blood is extremely concentrated, comparable to mine after two blood pool baptisms."

"As for the matter of women..."

The Great Zhou Emperor paused, patted Wu Ling's shoulder again, and then sat down again.

"I am the founding emperor of the Great Zhou, and Emperor Xuanwu is a woman, isn't he?"

After the Great Zhou Emperor finished speaking, the air froze again.

Many people's faces became stiff, even the gentle Queen Wang didn't know what to say for a while, and her face turned slightly dark.

And the princes and princesses who were not very sophisticated expressed their emotions directly.

A young prince could not help but mutter: "What qualifications does a country bumpkin have to be the crown prince? If she can be the crown prince, it would be better for my servant to be the crown prince."

When the young prince said this, the imperial concubine beside him changed her face slightly and quickly covered his mouth.

"Xu'er, don't talk nonsense, shut up,"

"That's it, father made a completely blind choice." The prince seemed to say it unintentionally.

But everyone present was smart, it was just that imperial concubine who wanted to express her dissatisfaction with the emperor of Dazhou through the prince's innocent words.

And this also touched the brows of the emperor of Dazhou, and he frowned slightly, "Slap your mouth."

After the voice fell, a figure suddenly appeared behind the imperial concubine.

Everyone's eyes were fixed, and before they could react, the body of the imperial concubine and the young prince was held up and dragged out of the palace.

Soon, there was a sound of slapping outside the palace.

The young prince screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

Everyone present watched silently, without saying a word.

In their hearts, they cursed the imperial concubine and her young child as fools.

Originally, the emperor was like this because he wanted to support Wu Ling as the crown prince. Although the reasons listed were very convincing, as long as they could reason and move him with emotion.

With the advantage of their own children growing up by the emperor's side, they might be able to make the emperor change his mind.

But now it's good.

It gave the emperor a chance to establish his authority, and at the same time expressed his determination to everyone.

Cheng Guang looked at Wu Ling, and then looked at the Great Zhou Emperor, who was as pale as water at this time and could not see through any of his emotions, and his mouth twitched slightly.

He was not surprised by this result.

After all, he knew that Wu Ling was the future empress of the Great Zhou.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that the reason why the Great Zhou Emperor did not directly expose his identity as a fake prince was perhaps because he had a good relationship with Wu Ling.

Sure enough, Cheng Guang's guess was verified the next second.

The Great Zhou Emperor suddenly smiled, "What do you think of Wu Ling as the crown prince? If you have any opinions, just say it directly. I will follow your advice."

At this time, even Queen Mother Li could not speak.

She was the only one who could question the emperor, but now the emperor was so determined, it was clear that he had already chosen it in advance, and she could not change the Great Zhou Emperor's mind.

She simply kept silent.

Queen Wang and other concubines also lowered their eyebrows and remained silent, as if they were expressing their dissatisfaction with silence.

"It seems that no one has any opinions. Guang boy, do you have any opinions? What do you think of Wu Ling, who I am optimistic about?" The Great Zhou Emperor then set his eyes on Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang's heart was slightly shocked, and he thought to himself, "As expected, as expected, the emperor is worthy of being the emperor. If the real prince was here, he would not respond, or even directly scold the emperor for being blind.

But he was a fake prince, so he could only follow the emperor's wishes.

"Of course, my uncle's vision is very good. Wu Ling has the appearance of a female emperor. It is perfect for her to be the prince and enter the East Palace."

Cheng Guang said this under the attention of everyone.

As soon as the voice fell.

The Emperor of Da Zhou put his hands together and smiled, "Okay, everyone has heard it. My nephew has said so, so it's settled."

Cheng Guang's status is very high, and in a sense, he represents the position of the future Zhenguogong Mansion.

Any prince who gets Cheng Guang's support will most likely become the next emperor, not to mention a little prince.

The final word.

The Emperor of Da Zhou did not expose Cheng Guang, and his purpose may be here.

Cheng Guang was quite impressed, thinking that the emperor had seen through his identity as the prince's substitute and was using him temporarily, but if he hadn't discovered that he was an imposter, how could the emperor have pushed Wu Ling to the position of the East Palace against all odds?
