Princess Qi didn't see anyone else except Li Fei and the Eighth Prince. It was obvious that she thought highly of this pair of mother and son. That was why Huang Feng made such a guess.1

"That's right." Princess Qi nodded and said. She wouldn't hide anything from Huang Feng. " Before I was married, in the Imperial Palace... I had the best relationship with Imperial Concubine Li. Of course, I didn't choose the Eighth Prince just because of my personal feelings. If the Eighth Prince is ignorant and incompetent, no matter how good my relationship with Consort Li is... However, the Eighth Prince wasn't that kind of person. Although there are some small flaws, the flaws do not cover up the jade. Compared to the other princes... He is already much more outstanding, but he has never been valued by me, Royal Brother. Therefore, the people in the outside world don't know much about this. I watched him grow up. What kind of person is he? I understand very well... So, in my heart... He is the most suitable candidate."

Indeed, Princess Qi would not disregard the big picture just for a little bit of personal feelings. She is the princess of the Great Lu Dynasty, and she has to be responsible for the Great Lu Dynasty. She had to be responsible for the dead Royal Brother, so when she was considering this matter... She couldn't mix too much of her personal feelings into it. Therefore... The outside world thought that she was going to visit Consort Li and even wanted to support the Eighth Prince. It was all because of her relationship with Consort Li. In fact, that was not the case.

It was precisely because Princess Qi had more contact with Imperial Concubine Li that she knew the Eighth Prince better. Only then did she know what the outside world, and even what she, Royal Brother, did not know. That was why she was sure that the Eighth Prince was the most suitable candidate for the throne.

"I believe in your judgment." Huang Feng said, "Since you have already decided, then announce it to the public so that those restless people can stop."

After spending some time with him, Huang Feng also knew that... Princess Qi was a person with her own opinions, especially after knowing that she, Royal Brother, had died. She seemed to have become more independent and independent. And because of that... She had made a decision. Huang Feng naturally would not refute it. Furthermore, this was after all the matter of the Great Lu Dynasty Imperial Family. As an outsider, he could not say too much. What he could do was... In other words, he could only protect Princess Qi and ensure that she wouldn't be harmed by others.

As for the recent actions of those people inside and outside the Imperial Palace, not only did Princess Qi notice it, Huang Feng also had some understanding of this matter. Because of this, he also hoped that Princess Qi would be able to resolve this matter as soon as possible. In this way, those who paid special attention to this matter... Only then could they calm down.

"Okay." Princess Qi naturally knew this principle. "Tomorrow morning at the morning court, I will announce it to those ministers."

This kind of thing was definitely not something that could be decided with just a few words. It definitely had to be said in an official setting.

Huang Feng nodded his head to express his agreement.

That night, there were still people who wanted to pay Princess Qi a visit. However, they were all rejected by Princess Qi one by one. Since she had already made her decision, naturally, it would not be changed easily. At this time, naturally, she would not see anyone.

The officials were also paying attention to this matter. They felt that Princess Qi was going to make a decision soon. Otherwise, she would not have taken the initiative to go out. It was just that they did not know who she would choose.

In fact, being the Emperor could be said to be a private matter of the royal family. The officials could not say too much about family matters. Otherwise... They would be suspected of overstepping their authority, but this was a special case. The one who had the most say in the entire royal family was actually a woman like Princess Qi. Thus, it was inevitable that the officials had their own thoughts. Furthermore, they also wanted the person who was most in line with their interests to go on stage.

After all, before the Deceased Emperor died, because the Crown Prince had yet to be confirmed... Therefore, theoretically speaking, any prince could ascend to the throne. Therefore, each prince would have one or two close ministers supporting them. However, because the Deceased Emperor was still young... Therefore, the officials did not think that he would die young... Thus, there were naturally not many officials who wanted to get too close to a prince. To invest in the future.

As for those few ministers who had already formed a secret team, they were naturally more concerned about New Emperor's candidate. They naturally hoped that the prince they supported would ascend to the throne.

However, these people who were able to secretly seek refuge with a prince first... All of them wanted to obtain a good future. Their current status wasn't very high. Otherwise, they would not have taken the risk to invest in advance. After all, the situation at that time was unclear. Once the investment was wrong, not only would the future be ruined, it might even endanger their lives. Because of this, the officials who were in high positions naturally did such risky actions.

Thus, these officials who did not hold high positions at the moment... They did not have much authority, and it was even harder for them to speak about the throne. All they could do was pray in secret and give suggestions to the prince that they supported.

However, Princess Qi did not enter the salt oil and did not see anyone. This made those ministers helpless.

Fortunately, since Princess Qi did not see anyone, it meant that everyone was still on the same starting line and did not fall behind. Everyone still had a chance. Hence, those princes and ministers did not appear to be too depressed.

The next morning at the morning court, some of the officials who arrived first seemed to have felt the difference in the atmosphere today. Because, those rarely seen princes actually appeared in the hall today.

One had to know that these princes usually did not need to go to court. Unless something special happened, they wouldn't appear in the great hall. And today, a prince had already arrived. Looking at the situation... It seemed like the other princes would also be here.

"What's going on?" A minister asked in a low voice: "Why are those few here?"

"Maybe it has something to do with the recent matter of the throne." Another minister's gaze also shifted to those princes, "Maybe Princess Qi has already decided who will inherit the throne."

"So fast?" The previous official said in surprise, "I thought that she would need to delay for some more time."

This was what many ministers and even the princes thought, because... The two-year-old Emperor was still the Emperor of the Great Lu Dynasty. Before New Emperor was selected, he would always be in that position. What could a two year old child handle? What kind of state affairs could he manage? Wasn't Princess Qi, who was standing behind him, the one who had the final say?

It could be said that after defeating the Wu father and daughter, Princess Qi completely replaced their position. She had become the person with the most power in Great Lu Dynasty. As long as New Emperor did not choose her, she would be the one with the most power. She would be the most powerful person in the Great Lu Dynasty every day. In everyone's mind, she was the most powerful person in the Great Lu Dynasty. Princess Qi naturally wouldn't easily give up her power and step down from her current position.
