"Prince, the commoner... the commoner Rong Qichun has returned!"
Yan Mo initially wanted to say deposed Crown Prince, but deposed Crown Prince couldn't reflect his stance, so he decisively used the term "commoner Rong Qichun".
The ministers in Taihe Palace looked at each other in confusion, taking a moment to recall who Rong Qichun was.
This name had not been mentioned in the court for a long time.
Rong Heng maintained a calm demeanor, his voice steady: "Is that so, he is indeed two days earlier than I imagined. He is truly impatient."
With a slight furrow of his cold, deep brows, his gaze landed on the faces of the court ministers, not missing any changes in expression.
Today marks the third day since the Emperor's passing.
Though the selection of the new ruler was put on hold, it didn't mean that some weren't secretly eager.
Rong Qichun didn't just return to the Capital City with rebel forces; he most definitely has people speaking for him within the court.
