Chapter 2272 Chu Yi returns to Wei
Once the old emperor dies, the eldest prince will be able to ascend the throne legitimately and gain power.
The story is circulating in the market, which also makes many people not ashamed of the character of the eldest prince. As a son, he actually committed the murder of his father. This is really unbearable.
The civil and military officials of the court were also divided into several factions and quarreled all day long about this matter. Some even pointed out that if the matter was not investigated, the eldest prince would not succeed to the throne. Some even proposed to invite the second prince back.
This made the eldest prince feel extremely troubled. His biggest problem was that his father did not designate him as the crown prince of Wei. Although he demoted the second prince, he was not justified.
If he let his people of his power suppress those rumors and even ascend the throne with this, then he will be even more unable to explain clearly that this matter is definitely not what he did!
This also made the capital of Wei seem a little confused, and what made the eldest prince even more troubled was that the second prince actually came to the capital of Wei from his fiefdom in the name of visiting his father.
For a moment, the situation in the capital of Wei became even more unclear.
It is precisely based on this point that Elder Xiu went to Daozong and asked Ge Xuan to give Chu Yi a letter to him for the sake of the reign of Wei. Chu Yi’s previous image of unity between man and nature made the strong people in the capital of Wei and the Daluo Jinxian realm be kind to Chu Yi. In addition, his identity is different now, so I hope that Chu Yi can come to the capital of Wei and play a role in stabilizing people’s hearts.
At this moment, Chu Yi and Xiang Ji and the others did not know that the situation in Wei State had turned into this scene. They had just arrived at Chu Yi's fiefdom, Yunjun City.
It towered into the clouds, like a city made in the clouds. Chu Yi and Xiang Ji and others were standing outside the city gate at this moment, and their eyes couldn't help but feel a little emotion. When I first came to this city, my cultivation was just a small immortal. I walked out of Hua County and conducted immortal tests and practices here. Some of the past events I encountered were Chu Yi's precious memories.
At this moment, Yunjun City was filled with people and cultivators, and they had already known about the imperial edict that Chu Yi was about to come back was undoubtedly the most exciting thing for the people of Yunjun City.
Although Chu Yi came from Hua County, he did many earth-shaking things in Yun County City, which won many glory for Wei. The people in Yun County City had long regarded Chu Yi as a member of Yun County City. At that time, Yun County City was named Chu Yi's fiefdom, and the people's cultivators celebrated it. Now that the lord of this county has returned, they all welcomed it.
"Welcome to Mr. Chu back!"
"Welcome to Mr. Chu home!"
"The elders of my hometown welcome Mr. Chu!"
....
The shouts came from the mouths of the people and the cultivators. Everyone was crying out the name of Chu Hou from the bottom of their hearts. Even Xiang Ji and others who came with Chu Yi had never seen them. In addition to the king of a country or the powerful king, there were also people so popular and loved by the people and the cultivators!
Chu Yi couldn't help feeling like a wanderer returning home at this moment.
I once heard people say that wealth and honor will not return home, like walking in the night in brocade clothes.
Now I know that this statement is not false.
Chu Yi stood inside the gate of Yunjun City, looking at so many fellow villagers, and felt a little moved, "Chu Yi has seen you all."
After saying that, he bowed slightly and bowed to everyone.
"We have seen the Chu Hou!" Countless cultivators bowed to Chu Yi at this moment. Xiang Ji and others hurriedly retreated, but the few people couldn't help but secretly applauding that Chu Yi did so many things for the Wei State to be loved by the people. This is something that I cannot envy. In Lenovo, everyone was not far apart, but compared to seeing this scene, they were far apart from Chu Yi!
"Mr. Chu, you are here!" After entering the city, the people and cultivators also knew what happened in the capital of Wei. This time, Chu Yi returned, and he was likely to rush to the capital of Wei, and they dispersed one after another. Chu Yi and Xiang Ji and others were welcomed into the prefect's mansion by Wei Tong.
"Premier Wei, what is the situation now?" Chu Yi, Xiang Ji and others sat down and asked.
"The situation? Alas, the situation is extremely bad." Wei Tong looked helpless, "Old Su sent several letters in succession to ask if you have come back. Even Old Su can't sit still, which shows how bad the situation is!"
"What's going on?" Chu Yi asked for a moment. Xiang Ji and others also showed their attention. It was not that they were concerned about the situation in Wei State, but that they were concerned about the safety of Chu Yi during this trip.
"A bastard, the second prince, once he returned to the capital of Wei, the eldest prince was restrained everywhere. His Majesty was poisoned and it was found that the palace maid had contact with the guards in the eldest prince's mansion. Now the eldest prince can't even clear the situation even if he jumped into the Yellow River!" Wei Tong said angrily, "It's not that I, Wei, just helped the eldest prince, but originally, my Wei State could have a stable handover of power, but the second prince came out to make trouble. You must know that if the Chu Hou had not been in the capital of the capital, the day was full of the day and the local area attracted most of the attention of the fairy world, I'm afraid that the Song State and other countries would be very likely to attack the border!"
In fact, everyone present knew that Wei State was in a turmoil. If it weren't for Chu Yi's sudden appearance and attracting the attention of many forces in the fairy world, it would be possible that Wei State would have been attacked by the surrounding countries now!
Now Wei finally recovered, but he didn't have long spent a safe life, and the situation became chaotic again.
"Does the Old General Su have any instructions?" Chu Yi didn't care who could ascend the throne, but he was now a member of Wei. So many people in Wei respected him so much, so naturally he didn't want the situation in Wei to become bad. Moreover, even for Elder Xiu, he would have to settle the farce to avoid turmoil.
"Old Su, I just hope you go as soon as possible. There is no other word. He only said to me, that is, only when the Chu Hou arrives can the wealthy families in the Wei Kingdom be quieted down." Wei Tong looked at Chu Yi and said in great solemnly.
Chu Yi nodded and expressed his understanding, but he felt that the situation was probably not so optimistic.
In the capital of Wei, the second prince's mansion has now been renamed the Fengjun Prince's Mansion. The old emperor's move also showed that the second prince's qualification to withdraw from the heir to the throne, but now the second prince is poisoned with the old emperor and wants to thoroughly investigate the truth.
Although the second prince's power has been greatly reduced after the previous incident, there are many people in the second prince's mansion. The leader is Wang Zheng, the head of the Wang family, the old Wei family, who is now in the head, is not someone else, but Tuoba Yu!
The second prince's eyes were a little smile, and he seemed very proud, "I can come back, thank you for your help."
"You are kind to you, the Second Prince." The person present quickly said politely.
During the banquet, the guests and hosts were having fun.
Wang Yangming suddenly spoke, "Report to the second prince, and the news came back from Yun County that Chu Yi has returned to Wei State, and I am afraid that he will come to the capital in a few days!"
"Chu Yi?!" When the second prince heard this, his face changed slightly, and his expression was a little surprised and suspicious. The conflict between him and Chu Yi also caused him to be demoted. When talking about Chu Yi, he felt indescribable resentment.
Tuoba Yu, who was originally silent, had a little sharpness flashed in his eyes. Chu Yi had a grudge against him, and the previous Tuoba Xiao incident was also spread by the national cultivator. Although the Tuoba family was not ridiculed by others, it was also a huge blow to the reputation of the Tuoba family. At this moment, hearing Chu Yi's words made him feel angry. He only snorted coldly, "Even if Chu Yi comes, what can you do? As a subject, he cannot interfere in the affairs of the royal family. Besides, now the fingers are all directed at the eldest prince of Wei. You don't need to worry. When you take the throne, it will be too late to deal with Chu Yi!"
When the second prince heard this, he relaxed slightly. When he was demoted, he had already contacted Tuoba Yu secretly, hoping to get the support of the Tuoba family. Chu Yi is indeed famous, but his cultivation is not as good as the Daluo Golden Immortal, and he is not a person in the officialdom. If he wants to control the throne, perhaps it may be possible in the future, but now he is not able to do so. In addition, because of Tuoba Yu, he has been recognized by many Wei families and the support of foreign forces, which has made him more confident in the fight for the throne.
Wang Yangming listened quietly to their words, and couldn't help but express some regretful thoughts in his heart. His original intention was to arouse the hatred of the second prince and Tuoba Yu towards Chu Yi, and perhaps take this opportunity to deal with Chu Yi, but the second prince obviously did not want to cause trouble. Now it is a critical opportunity to compete for the throne, so he had to remain silent.
Inside the imperial city of Wei, Elder Xiu stared blankly at the bright moon in the sky, but his expression revealed a bit of delicate expression.
"Xiu'er, haven't you made up your mind yet?" Su Dingfang's voice sounded, looking at his granddaughter with pity in his eyes.
"Grandpa." Elder Xiu looked at him with a little worry, "The incident happened suddenly. I want to stay in the imperial city and take care of my father."
"But..." Su Dingfang sighed slightly, "I have received some news these days, and I'm afraid the situation is not as simple as I imagined."
Elder Xiu was stunned when he heard this, and a little clarity suddenly flashed in his heart. She shook her head, "No matter what, my father is in danger now, and I don't want to leave, so I ask my grandfather to take care of him."
A bitterness rose on the corner of Su Dingfang's mouth, "This is not a problem that I am too concerned about, but a problem with Zhao Wuji and Zhao State."
"Grandpa, why did your father suddenly...is he really the eldest brother?" Elder Xiu was silent for a long time, and suddenly said in a faint tone.
Su Dingfang looked at Elder Xiu, and a little solemn flashed in his eyes, "Although many fingers pointing at your elder brother, in fact, I think it's not him..."
"I understand." A bitter smile appeared on Elder Xiu's face. As a royal family, Elder Xiu is not unfamiliar with these conspiracies. Although Su Dingfang did not indicate others, he was not the eldest prince, so the real murderer was about to emerge.
