The Fourth Princess's Gossip System

246

The fourth prince entered the gate area with steady steps, accompanied by six generals and several nobles and ministers. Thousands of soldiers were behind him, including Uncle Prince who was also taking part in the ranks.

"how dare the commoners make a scene in the forbidden palace, this Prince will show who is in charge here" the fourth Prince said in an emotional tone.

The nearby minister nodded in agreement, "That's right, Prince. We must not allow this commotion to continue if this is allowed then what will the government will be lower in the eyes of the people"

But when the fourth Prince arrived at the gate, he froze, disbelieving what he saw before him.

"What's this?" he muttered with a trembling voice. Even his eyes seemed to want to come out of his socket was surprised by him.

Amidst the crowd of thousands kneeling down, stood Zhang Fei-, the former Princess of peipei who had just given up her title. This sight stunned him, even the late Emperor had never received this kind of honor while he was alive.

"Fourth prince, what is going on?" whispered one of the ministers in a tone full of astonishment.

"maybe the Princess deliberately did this by gathering her private people, ckckck said she wanted to take off the title but see what she's doing at the moment?"accuse a minister of ridicule when he does not know what happened.

The fourth prince could not hide his surprised expression. "This is impossible... How could he possibly get so many followers?"

Surprise was on the faces of those around him. Some ministers and even some generals seem to be distrustful of what they see.

"General Su, are you also kneeling before him?" asked one of the nobles in a dumbfounded voice.

"Ahh general Su??"

While everyone was shocked by what happened, the prince's uncle looked at zhang Fei with deep admiration and respect. "She's an amazing woman, but I let her down."

On the 4th Prince's side as well, he felt the flames of fury burning in his heart. Hatefully, he stared at this situation with eyes full of fire.

"He's a nobody. She is just an ordinary woman. Why were they all kneeling before him? Even General Su, a general as strong as General Su, was willing to kneel before him," he hissed inwardly.

He was the emperor's candidate, who should have earned respect and recognition.

The 4th Prince's anger soon reached its peak as he heard General Su's own words expressing his intention to escort the Princess wherever he went as a personal bodyguard.

"He wants to be the Princess' personal bodyguard? Prefer that over keeping his general position?" The 4th Prince was deepened, his sense of anger growing more and more unbearable.

In the heat, the 4th Prince ordered, "Soldiers, prepare themselves and execute them on the spot. Catch Zhang Fei, dead or alive!"

The shout erupted loudly, heating the atmosphere back up. The 4th Prince's soldiers, despite not having any weapons yet, advanced resolutely, pointing their sharp swords towards General Su's soldiers.

One of the six generals loyal to the 4th Prince took a step forward, "General Su, although we were once friends, it had no connection with treason. This is a betrayal of us all."

With those words, General Su's forces were immediately surrounded. They realized that without weapons and protection, they were in a very disadvantageous position. It is impossible to fight an armed enemy by using only bare hands.

But amidst this critical state, General Su remained steadfast and showed no signs of regret. He looked around with calm eyes, "If this is the end I must experience, let it be a sign of my loyalty to the princess."

The confrontation grew increasingly heated, and the disagreement between the 4th Prince and General Su became increasingly apparent. The 4th prince went to great lengths to maintain his honor and position as the future emperor. While General Su was undaunted by the fact that his loyalty to the Princess was more important than his standing as a general.

At that moment, the 4th Prince was still motionless from his place. He who was previously like a tiger with a loud roar and sharp fangs, now looks like a toothless tiger that lost its bite. His strength was as if fixated on the ground and he felt he did not have any moves to save the wife who was caught in this situation.

From afar, Zhang Fei's eyes seemed to be filled with sadness. "So my decision to leave was the right one, right?" he murmured with a voice full of sadness.

("He was caught in the middle of a conflict, having mixed feelings between love for the Princess and loyalty to Dayun. It's very difficult for him,")Say the system with a sympathetic voice.

"No! A man who sacrificed his life on the battlefield for the country is a hero. But a man who sacrificed his pregnant wife's life for the country? It was a traitor, a sissy, depraved!" Zhang Fei complained with a wounded heart.

Meanwhile, the fight would be a clash but suddenly, a loud scream filled the air, echoing throughout the area.

Inside the palace, there was a special department trained to make loud noises similar to loudspeakers. This time, they were the ones who advanced with clear and heavy shouts. Their large number makes everyone turn a deaf ear because the sound is so jarring.It's like you're standing near a loudspeaker when there's a celebration.

"Stop fighting! We would like to read the second edict of the late Emperor!"

Although the late Emperor had died, but due to his position as Emperor, everyone reflexively stopped fighting. Nonetheless, no one intended to release the grip on their already unsheathed swords, they were at least paying attention to what was about to be announced.

"Stop fighting! Please give attention! We will read the second edict of the late Emperor!"

With such a thunderous voice, the department managed to focus everyone's attention. Although the situation was still tense, the announcement of the second edict of the late Emperor seemed to have managed to ease the seething atmosphere.

"This is the time?"think fourth prince.

"Decree of the appointment of a new emperor?"

"Finally....

Some people immediately breathed a sigh of relief when they heard there was a decree to be read. Immediately everyone acted as if it was not a decree. But the voice of the emperor they would listen to later.

So automatically everyone knelt down again without exception including the entourage brought by the 4th prince.

This also applies to the prince's uncle.

After the previous announcement, the atmosphere calmed down again and everyone remained on their knees with their heads lowered, no one dared to raise a glance. Then, a eunuch approached humbly, carrying the Emperor's edict inside an established one decorated with silk. He walked to a higher place in order to read the decree clearly to all present.

With a deep breath, this Eunuch began his reading, his eyes looking in all directions, "According to the plan of the late Emperor, this decree will be read on the 12th day. But with what happened today, this decree will be read early. Please understand and listen carefully."

Today is only the 11th day, which means the plan is for the decree to be read tomorrow when the kneeling ceremony ends in the afternoon.

But the situation today makes the state archive department must decide to speed up the reading of the decree so that the atmosphere in the palace is again conducive.

The people who sided with the 4th Prince were very confident that the contents of this decree would announce the appointment of a new emperor who would naturally become the fourth Prince

Happy smiles emanated on their faces, including the 4th Prince who was very confident in himself.

"well, this is the most important moment" he said at the time.

On the other hand, the people, General Su and his soldiers remained on their knees without giving any reaction, they still obeyed the actions that were required to be taken for the late Emperor.

But no one saw if Zhang Fei's pale facial expression when the eunuch mentioned the decree.

Immediately the sound of the gossip system in zhang Fei's mind sounded extremely disdainful .

( "Slow, hahaha. Eventually the decree will be read. Too late to run, haha.")

"Damn it, why did these people come blocking my departure from the palace? Ahh, how's this?"

("Dear dear, accept your fate, don't worry, sweetie. There's a mama who will be with you until the end of ")

"This decree was written by Emperor Dayun of Xian Zong on the 12th day of the 9th month of the 15th year of the Zhiyuan era. It was Chen's hour (7 am) on the Chinese calendar. At the time of his writing, Emperor Xian Zong was in a conscious and conscious state without any coercion" the loud eunuchs' voice seemed to explain the exact day and time at the time of writing.

After everyone is silent then love has this great voice reciting the original edict.

****

"By being recited, Emperor Dayun Xian Zong said the next Emperor was the prince's uncle, Tian Huiyang.

While the Little Palace Princess's original decree for banning Xian Huiyang, not allowing her to take concubines still prevails.

As the fourth Prince's final heir, grant him an honorary title as a minor king, as well as a city to rule without paying taxes while the fourth Prince is still alive.

Thus the decree written by Emperor Dayun Xian Zong"

****

"What's? not likely? This..this is unlikely to be this obviously a conspiracy!!"the fourth prince shouted.

While the fourth Prince was shouting, the people who were on his side suddenly froze on the spot.

The Emperor how could they be wrong in siding if in fact the next Emperor was the Prince's own uncle

"Ohh god, I was the one who tied Uncle Prince uh next Emperor on the chair .Is he going to punish me for death?"

"It's a good thing I didn't break it down with a whip, otherwise my head would be dislodged tomorrow"

"What the emperor may think this is another rebellion.This can't be Uncle Prince right? no way!"

The 4th Prince was so emotional about the decree but he would never believe it if it was written by his own father.

Wh why?

Why should Uncle prince?

At first, the relationship between the prince's uncle and the Emperor's father never got along. Although the 4th Prince was not familiar in the palace. But he had also heard that the Emperor's father had never really considered this Prince's Uncle as his younger brother.

They are more suited to being said to be enemies.

But what's going on?

Before his death the Emperor's father made an edict, if he preferred this enemy-considered brother to be the next Emperor compared to his own son?

Wh why?

"No this is certain that the rebellion of the Emperor's father could not have written such an edict .You're...

Soon the fourth Prince pointed at the nostrils of the fat eunuch who had been reading the edict.

"Come back and give the original edict!!"

The truck...

Out of nowhere the 4th prince got the whip, obviously the whip immediately floated towards the fat eunuch.

Although he is no longer referred to as the next Emperor candidate. But he still had the Emperor's blood, so it was illegal for his skin to be harmed by the soldiers.

Therefore no one wanted to move to stop the whip. Even that fat eunuch alone, would not dodge in the slightest.She simply closed her eyes and waited to fall into that whip over her body.

But just waiting but the whip never fell on his body, when he opened his eyes then he was a little surprised by what he saw.

The prince uncle who had been standing a short distance away suddenly was already here and pulled the whip lightly.

If mentioned martial matters, Uncle Prince was stronger when compared to the fourth prince.

"prince don't get too emotional!"Said the prince's uncle who suddenly regained his color.

He was surprised by the decree .But start researching what's going on lately.

According to what he knew, there was not a single secret that could be kept from the princess if she wanted to research it. So it is likely that the Princess already knew the contents of the decree earlier than anyone else.

So he had to figure out the answer first from the Princess .But before that he had to straighten out this matter first.

the whip held by the Prince's Uncle was thrown onto the ground making the 4th Prince also fall to the ground in a humiliating style.

When he turned his head, his eyes seemed like they could stab Uncle Prince with that look.

If sight could kill then Uncle Prince would have already died.

"Uncle is it your plan I do not blame your plan to make me a puppet Emperor instead of being unable to master me then you want to become Emperor yourself? Hah I've really been fooled"

"Niece....

Not yet had Uncle Prince finished his words all of a sudden, there was the sound of thousands of people who had gathered at the gate of the forbidden palace.

"peace to the glorious emperor survived a long life of 1000 years.

"long live of Emperor Dayun, Xian Huiyan. May the long life be 1000 years...!"

"The longevity of Emperor Dayun Xian huiyan may the longevity of 1000 years..!"

In an instant the anger of the 4th prince had already reached to the crown.Here he felt deceived but also felt humiliated.

Obviously the state archives department already knew the contents of the decree, but why they pretend not to know anything.

If only he had known it earlier would not have always been this, but more importantly he was tricked by everyone including Uncle Prince.

"Our fourth prince had his own arrangements, always keeping the state a secret.it was not easy for us to open it bluntly.but because of the special status of the decree had to be read out early. Our department has been meeting after meeting to discuss this since the fourth Prince's return to the capital. We thought the Prince would be more patient but apparently there was only disaster arriving" said the fat eunuch who massaged his chest as he managed to survive the fourth Prince's whip.

The late Emperor also left a special letter to the fourth Prince to read in private.

Despite his disbelief, the 4th Prince still took the letter out of Eunuch's hands and read it on the spot.

It was at that moment that the reaction experienced was different from before.

"my son don't blame the Emperor's father for not giving you the throne, it's not a sign that the Emperor's father doesn't love you. But the Emperor's father was more affectionate with Dayun. It's hard to say but, the ability of Uncle Prince compared to you is much different. Here the Emperor's father emphasizes again that the disaster of the throne struggle between brothers, brother,nothing happens to my descendants again and it starts with you as the only seed this Emperor has left. Stay away from politics because politics is bad"

Only after reading that did the 4th prince fall into a daze, did he faint on the spot.
