Chapter 761 The Emperor's Allure 57
I didn't know what to say, so I made a low sound to express my surprise.
In fact, she knew these things from Bodhi a few days ago.
After Li Guijun said this, he turned to look at her and explained quietly: "I don't want to get close to you because you are not my biological daughter."
So treating her calmly is the limit.
Qingwu nodded to express understanding.
After staring into her cold and beautiful eyes for a few seconds, he felt a little stunned.
I don't know since when, she seems to have become a little different.
Although she was reserved in the past, she would still follow him closely. Now, her eyes are as calm as water. Even though she smiles kindly, she feels alienated from others.
Like a passer-by in the world, he seems to be indifferent to everything in the world.
Seeing that he was looking at her without speaking, Qingwu tilted his head slightly in confusion: "Father?"
Li Guijun came back to his senses and hid the complicated look in his eyes.
Hearing that she was still willing to call him father, he nodded lightly and responded.
The two chatted about some things casually before Qingwu left the palace.
The second day.
Because the king's husband had ordered the ministers and princesses to enter the palace, everyone arrived at the court early.
Everyone gathered together to argue over who would succeed him.
I don’t know who took the lead in this kind of thing, but he actually said it openly.
No one was in charge, and the hall was buzzing.
The only calm people on the field were the elderly Prime Minister and Qing Wu who was taking a nap.
They were very close.
The Prime Minister saw her head moving slightly, and pulled her sleeves helplessly.
"Huh? The court is over?"
Qing Wu blinked his groggy eyes slowly, then turned his head to look at her, a little sluggishly.
The other party couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and his deep voice became louder: "Your Highness!"
She was shocked by the roar, "...Ah, here she is." She waved her hand, yawned and stood up straighter, with little crystal clear saline drops hanging from the corners of her eyes.
He raised his eyes and glanced at the noisy ministers around him. He felt a little more energetic, but soon started to doze off again.
There was nothing she could do. She really couldn't bear it when she had a spoiled husband at home.
My husband doesn't know why, but on that kind of thing... he just goes out of his way to please her.
I'm really sleepy.
The Prime Minister on the side sighed helplessly when he saw this, and let her sleep if he couldn't wake her up.
About half an hour later, Mr. Wang, Li Guijun and others arrived belatedly.
One of the ministers walked in front holding a bright imperial edict, which was particularly eye-catching.
The field was quiet for a moment.
They immediately understood that because they wanted to announce the last edict left by the late emperor, they were specially allowed to enter the palace today.
The imperial edict was explored by various parties, but it has never been found.
Everyone craned their necks to look at it, very curious about what was written on it.
As soon as the imperial edict was read, everyone knelt down.
Qing Wu, who was still dozing off, was dragged by the Prime Minister and knelt down in a daze.
"The heavens and the earth are vast, and the blessings are all over the sky. In response to the wishes of the solitary, the edict says:...Chu Qingwu has both political integrity and talent, and is deeply lonely. It is now said that the seventh princess Chu Qingwu..."
Qingwu: "..."
Hearing that this was almost the same content as the imperial edict contained in the machine box, most of his sleepiness disappeared immediately.
She said tiredly that she didn't want to speak, and lowered her eyes silently.
And her name suddenly exploded in everyone's mind.
They had vague suspicions before, but they didn't expect... that the Empress would really pass the throne to the Seventh Princess.
The princesses were so jealous that they almost bit their gums.
