Chapter 978: Real and Fake Heir

At this moment, Liang Jingxuan, who was wearing a sapphire python robe, said, "The Senior Imperial Censor's corpse is on display at the Meridian Gate. The Empress Dowager used thunderous methods to quell the cries of the court and to make the emperor come to court. It's obvious that the emperor is seriously ill and can no longer come to court to take charge of the court affairs. The court officials are fighting fiercely over the succession. It's already a mess. The three princes are fighting for the throne, causing chaos in the court. We can be considered to have a reason to send troops."

The emperor had not appointed an heir. Now that the Empress Dowager and the emperor were both seriously ill, the appointment of an heir could no longer be delayed. However, there were three princes in the court. No matter who was appointed, the other two factions would be beyond redemption. Even if it was not to stabilize the court, they had to fight with all their might for their lives.
