Facing Su Xin, Ji Yanxiu still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he was the one who burned the bridge after crossing it.
However, Ji Yanxiu did not regret doing so. What was the use of a Su Xin who was not under his control?
Ji Yanxiu admitted that he was a little too hasty at the time. He should have used Su Xin for a while first.
However, sooner or later, he would have a showdown with Su Xin. The result would be the same.
But now that Su Xin stood out at this moment, Ji Yanxiu felt a little uneasy.
However, Ji Yanxiu soon calmed down. Although Su Xin was an important minister of the Zhou Kingdom, he was not the real ruler of the Zhou Kingdom.
It did not matter if he said bad things about him now. As long as Ji Xuanyuan and the others agreed to let him inherit the throne, it would be fine.
Su Xin walked to the center of the meeting hall and said in a deep voice, "My lords, I think it is inappropriate to let the crown prince inherit the throne. The crown prince has been in charge of the country for a month. How much trouble has he brought to the court?
Our Zhou Kingdom is in a crisis now. We cannot allow people to act recklessly. It has only been a month. If we wait until the day the crown prince ascends the throne, what will happen to our Zhou Kingdom? "
As soon as Su Xin said this, the entire meeting hall was silent. Everyone present was shocked and looked at Su Xin in shock.
What did he say just now? He attacked Ji Yanxiu in front of so many important ministers of the Zhou Kingdom. Did he not want to stay in the Zhou Kingdom anymore?
These people did not know the inside story. They only knew that the crown prince was the face of the Zhou Kingdom.
Ji Yanxiu had caused a lot of trouble. Yes, these people in the Zhou Kingdom had seen it all in the past month.
The Celestial Court and Hades of the Heaven and Earth Palace rarely interacted with the Jianghu, but even so, Ji Yanxiu had offended both of them in a month. It had to be said that this was a skill.
But the problem was that no matter how many mistakes Ji Yanxiu had made, he was still the Crown Prince of the Zhou Kingdom. Previously, the Hades and the Celestial Court had come to his door to demand justice, but in the end, they were still rejected by Ji Xuanyuan and the others.
Now that Su Xin was attacking Ji Yanxiu like this, he was slapping himself in the face. How could Ji Xuanyuan and the rest agree to this?
Ji Yanxiu's eyes also revealed a trace of fierceness: "Su Xin! How dare you slander me like this? "
Lou Quanzhong, who was beside Ji Yanxiu, immediately said: "His Highness the Crown Prince is the ruler of the Zhou Kingdom, and you, Su Xin, as a subject, dare to slander His Highness. What are your intentions? Or do you, Su Xin, have ulterior motives, and want to topple the Imperial Court of the Zhou Kingdom? "
Lou Quanzhong did not say a word and directly put a big hat on Su Xin's head.
At this moment, Lou Quanzhong was also laughing in his heart. This Su Xin really lost his head from anger. Even if you have a conflict with His Highness the Crown Prince, it is against the rules to say it out loud in this kind of situation. When the time comes, His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't even need to show up, Ji Xuanyuan and the rest will naturally punish you, Su Xin.
Wen Yu, who was standing behind Ji Yanxiu, did not say anything. He wanted to stop them just now, but it was too late.
He also felt that it was a pity in his heart. Su Xin should have been their greatest help, but now it has become like this.
Even if Ji Xuanyuan reprimanded Su Xin today, Ji Yanxiu's face would definitely be lost.
As the Crown Prince of the Zhou Kingdom, he was publicly criticized by a subject as not worthy of being the ruler of the Zhou Kingdom. Moreover, the person who criticized him was Su Xin, an important subject of the Zhou Kingdom, a person with great prestige. Ji Yanxiu could be said to be a laughing stock from now on.
Moreover, Ji Yanxiu was also wrong to refute Su Xin in a flustered and exasperated manner.
In the face of Su Xin's criticism, it would be fine if you were calm and indifferent. But the problem is that your current appearance, firstly, shows that you lack confidence, and secondly, shows that you lack bearing. No matter how you look at it, you don't look like the Crown Prince of the Zhou Kingdom.
Su Xin said indifferently, "Slander? Whether I'm slandering or not isn't up to me to decide. Everyone in the Zhou Kingdom can see it. "
At this time, Su Xin turned his gaze to Lou Quanzhong, "What did you say about me just now? Trying to overthrow the Zhou Kingdom's imperial court? Haha, who gave you the courage to say such words? What right do you have to say such words to me in this meeting hall? Even a wild dog dares to bark. Where are the laws of the imperial court! "
When Su Xin's last words came out, Lou Quanzhong's face turned pale. The other dukes and marquises of the Zhou Kingdom present also shook their heads. This subordinate of Ji Yanxiu really doesn't know the rules.
Su Xin's performance at the Heavenly Observation Banquet spoke for itself. If it wasn't for Su Xin stopping He Wushan at the end, then Ji Haodian wouldn't have played himself to death. Moreover, he would have died under He Wushan's sword.
Although both of them would have died, the nature of their deaths was different.
If Ji Haodian played himself to death, then the imperial court would only be angry at the various sects for slapping the face of the Zhou Kingdom at the Heavenly Observation Banquet.
If Ji Haodian died under He Wushan's sword, then the enmity between the two sides would be irreconcilable. There would definitely be a battle between the Zhou Kingdom and the various sects of the Jianghu. Moreover, even with the current strength of the Zhou Kingdom, they didn't have a hundred percent chance of winning. The most likely outcome would be that both sides would suffer.
Therefore, with regards to Su Xin's actions, the people of the Zhou Kingdom present had a good impression of him. At least, Su Xin had avoided a battle that could implicate half of the Jianghu.
At such a critical juncture, Su Xin had used his Harmonious Deity realm strength to forcefully block a Yang God realm expert, He Wushan, the master of Mingjian Villa, 'Sword Shaking Eight Desolates'. If Su Xin had done this and still wanted to overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty, then he would be a real idiot.
Moreover, Lou Quanzhong had indeed broken the rules by standing up and scolding Su Xin. This was because Lou Quanzhong didn't have an official position in the Zhou Kingdom.
Although he was the Deputy Chief of the Dragon Shadow Army in name, in reality, the so-called Dragon Shadow Army hadn't even been recognized by the Zhou Kingdom.
After all, Ji Yanxiu was the Crown Prince. The Dragon Shadow Army's structure was on the same level as the three field armies of the Zhou Kingdom. With Ji Yanxiu's status, he didn't have the qualifications to establish such a force.
Therefore, the Dragon Shadow Army was just in name but not in name. It could only be established after Ji Yanxiu ascended to the throne. Frankly speaking, Lou Quanzhong was just a guest of the Crown Prince's residence.
Now, Lou Quanzhong could only stand here because of Ji Yanxiu. In the end, he still dared to spout nonsense here. If this wasn't breaking the rules, then what was?
At this moment, a cold snort was heard. Tang Xian waved his hand and immediately, a few Soul Transformation Realm eunuchs walked out and carried Lou Quanzhong out.
Lou Quanzhong wanted to struggle, but Tang Xian snorted and said, "Is this a place where you can be impudent? You don't know what you're doing! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he pointed out with his finger. A cold finger force seeped into Lou Quanzhong's body, causing him to groan and faint on the spot.
Ji Yanxiu's heart immediately sank. A bad feeling welled up in her heart.
After Tang Xian lost to Su Xin, he had already pledged his allegiance to her. Yet now, he had such an attitude. What was the meaning of this?
Before Ji Yanxiu could react, Tie Zhan suddenly stood out and said, "His Highness the Crown Prince's actions are indeed a little inappropriate. Although His Majesty did not appoint anyone to succeed the throne when he was alive, it is better for us officials to be more cautious."
When Tie Zhan said this, Ji Yanxiu's eyes widened. A hint of hatred flashed in his eyes.
He knew that the people of Six Doors would definitely stand on Su Xin's side!
Although Su Xin was not a member of the Tie family, he was raised by the Tie family. It could be said that he was an existence that shared the Tie family's fate and prosperity.
Now that Su Xin had spoken, how could Tie Zhan not support Su Xin?
It was no wonder that his father, the Emperor, had supported Liu Fengwu and the others to keep the Tie family in check. Now, Six Doors was about to belong to the Tie family alone!
If he could get through this, he would definitely suppress the Tie family's influence in Six Doors with all his might. He absolutely could not tolerate it!
However, Ji Yanxiu still did not know that part of the reason why Tie Zhan stood out was because he did not care about the Tie family's feelings and took in Fang Jiuyuan and Liu Wuqian.
Fang Jiuyuan and Liu Wuqian, who were standing on Six Doors' side, felt a chill down their spines.
They did not expect that Su Xin held so much weight in Tie Zhan's heart. Tie Zhan actually stood out to speak up for Su Xin.
At this time, Lin Zongyue also spoke up, "That's right. The Crown Prince naturally has to show some results when he is supervising the country. But forgive me for being blunt, what I see from the Crown Prince is only trouble. There are no results to speak of."
When Lin Zongyue spoke up, Ji Yanxiu really panicked.
Although Six Doors and the military were both military organizations of the Zhou Kingdom, a part of Six Doors' power lay in intelligence. Moreover, the strongest military organization in the Zhou Kingdom was the military.
After the former number one military man, Xue Zhenyue, retired, the war between the Zhou Kingdom and the Great Jin was commanded by Lin Zongyue alone. Therefore, his prestige in the Zhou Kingdom was very high.
When Lin Zongyue spoke up, it was equivalent to two of the strongest military organizations in the Zhou Kingdom standing out to oppose his ascension to the throne. In this way, how could Ji Yanxiu control the Zhou Kingdom?
At this time, everyone present could see that something was wrong. This situation was not Su Xin standing out to disgust Ji Yanxiu. Instead, he really had the ability to pull Ji Yanxiu off the throne!
At this time, Ji Yanxiu was completely panicking. He looked at Ji Xuanyuan and said, "Ancestor! This really has nothing to do with me. It was all caused by my subordinates! When I ascend to the throne, this kind of thing will definitely not continue to happen! "
At present, both Six Doors and the military did not agree to him inheriting the throne. Right now, the only thing he could rely on was the Ji Royal Family.
Compared to other forces, the ownership of the throne was in some ways their family business. Therefore, the Ji Royal Family had the most say in this matter.
However, at this time, Ji Xuanyuan acted as if he did not see Ji Yanxiu. He just said lightly, "The Zhou Kingdom is not the Ji Family's Zhou Kingdom. At present, both Six Doors and the military do not agree to you inheriting the throne. It is not good for me to act arbitrarily.
You can't sit on the throne of the Zhou Kingdom anymore. Be at ease and be an idle Master. "
As soon as his voice fell, Ji Yanxiu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was stunned and a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
