Chương 206: Royal Heir Deposed Again

Empress Xie was startled and hurried over to greet Emperor Muwu. Emperor Muwu's temples were graying, his complexion average, and his stature slightly stooped. However, his eyes remained sharp, causing Ye Chengyan to shiver involuntarily when they swept over him.

As soon as Emperor Muwu sat down, he asked Ye Siheng, "Ninth Brother, among the royal relatives, there are many outstanding children. Why don't you pick one suitable candidate to be the Royal Heir?"

Empress Xie's face turned pale. She quickly glared at Ye Chengyan and said, "Apologize to your father now!"

"I apologize, Father," Ye Chengyan said with his head bowed.

Emperor Muwu's health was deteriorating further, and he was struggling to support himself, fearing any action from Qi Nation at this critical juncture. But he hadn't expected his own son to be so disobedient.

Ye Chengyan continued, "Father, I genuinely like Miss Qiao from the Mansion of Marquis Wuyang. I beg you to grant my wish."
