Emperor Yan heard Prince Anyang’s response and snorted lightly.

“You can discuss with the Imperial Advisor about the other matters.”

Eunuch Da Hu immediately stepped forward to help Emperor Yan up and leave. The hall was silent.

It was not until Emperor Yan was far away that the hall became noisy again.

Prince Anyang only got up at this time, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

He heard Emperor Yan’s light snort just now.

Was his father mocking him for having wishful thinking?

At this point, he still refused to make him the crown prince?

Liu Wuji glanced at Prince Anyang, his expression somewhat complicated.

“Silence.”

The hall immediately fell silent.

Liu Wuji then continued to let the court officials discuss matters.

The court session lasted for half an hour before it finally adjourned.

Prince Anyang walked out with the court officials with a stiff expression, but he was called back by Liu Wuji.

“Your Highness, wait.”

Prince Anyang stopped and turned around with a somewhat stiff expression, meeting Liu Wuji’s gaze head-on.

Seeing that the Imperial Advisor frowned, Prince Anyang forced himself to muster up some spirit.

“Sir.” He then bowed to Liu Wuji.

Liu Wuji walked up to Prince Anyang’s side.

“Let’s go together.”.

Prince Anyang answered and followed Liu Wuji.

After leaving the Council Hall, they walked on the wide avenue, and Liu Wuji spoke again.

“The Emperor did not make Your Highness the crown prince, but instead wanted Your Highness to attend to His Majesty. Are you very disappointed?” Prince Anyang was stunned.

He looked at Liu Wuji for a moment, not saying anything. He just admitted it.

“Hmph.” Liu Wuji sneered.

This attracted Prince Anyang’s immediate attention.

However, Liu Wuji did not hide the contemptuous expression on his face.

Prince Anyang felt ashamed when he saw this.

The Imperial Advisor’ status was high, and the fact that he looked at him with such an expression only showed that he had not performed well enough.

He was indeed not stable enough.

Even though he knew that his father did not like him and was very wary of him, he was still hurt when he faced his father’s mockery.

As the future crown prince of the Great Yan, he should not have such emotions.

“Just now, the Emperor did not make Your Highness the crown prince, but he did not crown any other princes either.” Liu Wuji continued.

“And now, in the capital, only Your Highness is a prince of the appropriate age who is free to move around.”

The third and the fifth prince were imprisoned, almost considered to be abolished.

The seventh prince was still in his fiefdom, and the other princes were too young and did not have strong support from their mothers.

Prince Anyang actually had no competition.

However, despite this, his performance still disappointed him.

“As long as this situation does not change, does it matter whether Your

Highness is the crown prince?”

Prince Anyang was stunned.

His eyes suddenly flickered.

“Besides, the Emperor’s order for Your Highness to attend to His Majesty may have other intentions.”

“A test, or even…” Liu Wu Ji looked at Prince Anyang.

“Or negotiate terms with Your Highness. Once WYour Highess complete this step, the Emperor will grant you your wish.”

Prince Anyang was shocked.

His father might be testing him, and he agreed with that.

But his father wanted to negotiate terms with him? His power was overwhelming. What terms did he need to negotiate with him?

Liu Wuji’s lips curled up.

“Your Highness will know in due time.” He said.

The Emperor was not as simple as he looked. How could he not have noticed so many coincidences?

However, it was too late now, and he could only choose to compromise.

But he was the Emperor, and even if he really wanted to compromise, he would not be so easily taken advantage of.

Prince Anyang’s heart sank.

“Thank you for the reminder.” He cupped his hands at the Imperial Advisor.

Liu Wuji waved his hand and strode forward.

However, Prince Anyang remained standing at the same spot. He waited for Liu Wuji to walk far away before leaving for Shanghua Palace.

Did he really have conditions to negotiate with his father?

He would know once he went.

Outside the Shanghua Palace.

Prince Anyang was waiting for the Emperor Yan to summon him.

After a while, Zhang shi came out and invited the Prince Anyang in.

Prince Anyang glanced at Zhang Shi and entered the hall.

Upon entering, he discovered that there was indeed not a single palace servant in the hall.

“You’re the only one serving my father these days?” Prince Anyang asked.

Zhang Shi glanced at Prince Anyang and then quickly lowered her head.

“Most of the time, I’m the only one around.”

Prince Anyang turned his head and glanced at Zhang Shi.

“Thank you for your hard work.” He said.

Then, he strode forward..
