Chapter 8: I'm Not the Crown Prince

Yun Mo had already passed what Yun Zhongyao wanted to convey to the abbot. To Yun Zhongyao's expectation, the abbot persuaded Yun Zhongli, and he was even able to make up for Yun Zhongli's grievances.

Looking at the cunning flash in Yun Zhongyao's eyes when he heard his report, Yun Mo felt that the seventh prince was actually not as indifferent as the rumors, he was actually a bit mischievous.

Yun Mo felt that he had seen the other side of the seventh prince, and for some reason, he was a little happy.

After a few days of recuperation in the house, Yun Zhongyao felt that his body no longer felt sore.

A pampered person is always more squeamish, even if he is a man.

In just a few days, the eldest prince Yun Zhongming and the second prince Yun Zhongfeng have been called back to the capital.

Originally, Yun Zhongyan and the others also tried their best to leave the capital to escape the meeting, but Emperor Yun seemed to have guessed their intentions a long time ago, and sent some people to keep an eye on them, so they couldn't leave.

Shuang'er said " Your Royal Highness, the first and second prince came back and were called into the palace. People from the palace have come to call you too."

Yun Zhongyao put down the book in his hand and rubbed his forehead. He had a headache because of all this, "Get ready to go to the palace."

The one who should go will always have to go, in the end he can't hide.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the eldest and second brother to visit them when they came back, and discuss the countermeasures on their way, but Emperor Yun did not give him this opportunity at all.

Yun Zhongyao saw two familiar carriages at the gate of the palace, which belonged to Yun Zhongyan and Yun Zhongmiao.

It seems that the two of them have also been called into the palace.

Yun Mo wanted to protect Yun Zhongyao personally, so he also entered the palace with him, but when he arrived at the Imperial Study Room, Yun Mo was not allowed to enter, and Yun Zhongyao could only let him wait outside.

When he walked into the Imperial Study Room, he saw his six older brothers, their expressions were either helpless or indifferent, anyway no one was excited.

All the brother's greeted the king "We greet the Emperor father."

"Cut the formalities, and take your seat quickly."

Emperor Yun looked at the seven princes who were there, and couldn't wait to tell them his purpose for calling them, "Now all seven of you have grown up, and you have to inherit the crown prince position. This matter has been hanging in the air for a long time, it's time to make a decision. I know that the seven of you brothers have a good relationship, so this time I specially asked you to come into the palace to discuss together."

However, when prince Yun Zhongming heard the words of the Emperor, his face changed. It became very dark, because he has been fighting on the battlefield all year round so his body has the aura of an evil spirit now. So when his face sinks, it scares people so much that they are unable to look directly at him.

"Father, the frontier war is going to be difficult. This is the reason why you called your children back?"

"The national strength of Liuyue is not as good as ours. Why do you need to keep an eye on the frontier ?" Emperor Yun is not afraid of Yun Zhongming's appearance. After all, he is his father.

"But the frontier is not peaceful. This official has no such thoughts."

Emperor Yun was about to say something. The third prince Yun Zhongfeng was holding a folding fan and also said, "Father, don't be embarrassed. He is a minister, but he doesn't know anything about national affairs. He has a hand in the military. If any brother becomes the crown prince, he will help him wholeheartedly."

Yun Zhongyan also spoke, he looked at Emperor Yun with a smile, "Emperor father, so why don't you let this prince do it? When the prince becomes the crown prince and succeeds the throne, he must marry a harem of three-thousand beauties ."

"You only think of fooling around!" Emperor Yun was angry when Yun Zhongyan said this. The Emperor is really worried about what will happen if he becomes the crown prince.

"Father, he left the palace a long time ago and has built a mansion outside the palace,since he did this he has basically lost his right to inherit the crown prince's position. But this prince help built the mansion, so I don't want people to say bad things behind his backs." Yun Zhongmiao shrank his neck and nestled in his chair.

Emperor Yun glared at him, "Sit down now! Sit down and don't learn from your third brother!"

Yun Zhongyan who was suddenly named was not annoyed, instead he was shamelessly grinning.

It was Yun Zhongxin's turn. He didn't seem to have reacted yet. He came to himself after a while. With his big round eyes open, he poked out his particularly immature face from the side and said, "Father, look at your son. Sitting in that position, who can serve this son? Besides, since ancient times, the first prince has served as the crown prince, and the son has not occupied this position. How can I become the crown prince?"

the Emperor Yun looked at Yun Zhongxin, and his face became red with anger.

It was Yun Zhonglin's turn now, he was holding the Buddha beads in his hands, as if he could see through the world he said "Father, this son wants to become a monk..."

"Do you dare!? If you dare to go, I will break your legs!"

Everyone's eyes fell on Yun Zhongyao

"..." Yun Zhongyao just came back to his senses.

He had lost concentration thus he became dazed for a while and now he was watched by so many people before reacting.

He looked around with indifferent eyes, then looked at Emperor Yun who was at the centre, and said nothing.

Emperor Yun held his forehead, how could Yun Zhongyao's temperament be that of a crown prince? He isn't like a prince at all, he is too cold-hearted.

Emperor Yun has a headache. Although his children have always had a good relationship with each other, they are not like the older generations of the royal family of Chuyun Kingdom. Brothers used to slaughter and beat each other to death for the throne. This is something he has always been proud of.

But now, he felt a bit disappointed. The relationship between these brothers was so good that they even gave up the position of the crown prince.

They should be contesting for the position, so what are they being polite for!

No one wants to fight for the throne, why? Does sitting on my dragon chair burn your butt?

When he thought of this, Emperor Yun felt like his head hurt even more.

Yun Zhongyan looked around, as if he still didn't make the emperor angry enough, he pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Father, this son agreed to do it, why do you ignore this son?"

Emperor Yun picked up the memorial on the table and angrily threw it at Yun Zhongyan.

"Go away! Go away! Don't let me see your faces." When the emperor sees them, he always gets angry.

The brothers glanced at each other, stood up very tacitly, and saluted the Emperor. "Then the sons will retire." They did not conceal the excitement in their tone at all, as if to deliberately anger the emperor more so that they could leave more quickly.

"Go!"

The seven brothers came out of the Imperial Study Room and saw Li Fulu, the chief eunuch standing at the door.

The third prince knocked Li Fulu's shoulder with his folding fan and said, "Li Gongzi, this prince will give you some advice. You better go in when the express mother will come to visit the emperor, or else you will have to suffer from his anger."

"Brother ,Brother let's go out for a stroll at night. I haven't seen it for a long time." Yun Zhongmiao grabbed Yun Zhongming and Yun Zhongfeng's hands and said.

The brothers in front had already begun to discuss where to go to play at night. Yun Zhongyao was standing at the back, only Yun Mo saw that something was wrong with him.

"Your Royal Highness, what's wrong with you?" Yun Mo asked in a low voice.

Yun Zhongyao shook his head and leaned against Yun Mo subconsciously.

It seemed that he felt more at ease only by being around Yun Mo.

Yun Mo thought that Yun Zhongyao's body was uncomfortable again, after all, Yun Zhongyao's body was fragile like glass.

Yun Mo stretched out his hand to support Yun Zhongyao's arm and gave him a little support, "Your Royal Highness, if it's uncomfortable, let's go back first."
