When everyone heard Ye Tianyi's words, they were all shocked!
What did the Fourth Prince mean?
He was using Ye Tianyi as an analogy!
He was telling everyone that all these years, he had been hiding himself just like Ye Tianyi. The reason why he had been hiding himself was because he wanted to wait for his wings to fully mature and shine brightly!
And everyone was in the Royal Family, so they knew each other well!
If one was too outstanding and did not have a powerful backer, they would most likely be silenced!
Could it be that the Fourth Prince was such a person?
That he was actually a genius?
When the Empress Dowager, the Imperial Tutor, and the others heard Ye Tianyi's words, their eyes suddenly lit up!
Why?
If the Fourth Prince was really the same as Ye Tianyi, hiding himself, then this person was extremely shrewd and had extremely strong endurance. And this kind of person, if he was outstanding enough, then he would definitely be the best choice for the Emperor!
They actually hoped that this was true, because there would be one less useless prince and one more genius!
Ye Tianyi was extremely terrifying, but if the Fourth Prince was the same type of person as Ye Tianyi, then the Lei Ling Empire would be able to conquer the world!
When the various princes heard this, they subconsciously frowned, and some even exploded with killing intent!
Was this true?
They did not dare to believe it, but if it was true, then it was definitely not good news!
And the possibility of this was quite high!
Why?
He had actually displayed such amazing medical skills!
He had actually said such words, and his tone and everything else did not sound like the Fourth Prince from before!
And now was the day of the Emperor's Selection. If he was really hiding, then he would definitely be able to jump out today!
"Hahaha —"
At this moment, Ye Tianyi laughed.
"I'm just joking. That Ye Tianyi's temperament is extraordinary, the Chosen One. How can I compare to him?"
Zhou Zixue looked at Ye Tianyi's back view.
Could it be that she had really misjudged him?
But outside, the Fourth Prince's character was indeed extremely bad. Could it be that he was still pretending at that time?
Lei Yuyin also frowned slightly!
It couldn't be, right?
She had interacted with the Fourth Prince quite a bit. If he was really hiding something, then she would really be convinced!
The First Prince, Lei Ling, smiled and said, "No matter what Fourth Brother is trying to say, it is undeniable that Fourth Brother's medical skills are indeed amazing. However, whether or not he can be cured still remains to be seen."
They weren't sure what kind of person the Fourth Prince was. What if he was just trying to mislead them and make them think that he was very powerful?
In order to compete for the throne?
The possibility was extremely high!
Ye Tianyi shrugged his shoulders. "Let's talk about it tomorrow. The three of you must remember to look for this prince tomorrow."
Venerable Poison cupped his fists and said, "I will definitely look for the Fourth Prince to discuss this matter."
The Empress Dowager then glanced at the crowd. "Almost everyone is here. They are all important figures in the royal family. Then, the election for the throne can officially begin!
Imperial Tutor! "
"Yes!"
After that, the Grand Preceptor stood up and said, "Seven princes, Young Master Lei Feng, Your Highness, you may attend first."
Following that, Ye Tianyi and the others walked out and stood together.
That's right. The throne would be chosen from the nine of them!
Everyone looked at them anxiously and expectantly!
Countless members of the harem, including the civil and military officials, had already supported the First Prince, Second Prince, Third Prince and even the Princess. Of course, most of the supporters were still the First Prince and Second Prince.
Because they had always been outstanding. As for the Princess, a female candidate for the throne was always at a disadvantage. So even though she was outstanding, there were very few people who supported her!
But today, some people were looking forward to the Fourth Prince!
Was he a waste or …
The Grand Preceptor then said, "The death of the previous Emperor was not something we wanted to see. But it has happened. The grudge between us and the Ancient Empire has not dissipated for generations. Now, the Soaring Thunder Empire has no leader. The previous Emperor did not have time to appoint a Crown Prince. So we need the most capable Prince or Princess to sit on the throne and preside over the situation!
"And today, under the witness of all the members of the royal family, civil and military officials, as well as the ladies of the harem, we will choose the most suitable person to sit on the throne!"
The Grand Preceptor paused for a moment and continued, "To become the Emperor, you need to be extremely outstanding in all aspects. It is not as simple as you think. It is not something that can be done just by having some strength!
So now, the Grand Preceptor and the members of the royal family, including several generals of the empire, including the Empress Dowager, have discussed a set of plans for the election of the Emperor. "
The Grand Preceptor then said, "One hundred and twenty members of the royal family, five generals, the Heavenly Concubine, Concubine Lin and the other five most dignified ladies of the harem. Fifty of the most authoritative civil and military officials of the empire, including the Grand Preceptor, including the Heavenly Concubine, and twenty people from the former Ancient Empire who are now Soaring Thunder Empire's Heavenly Dao experts. There are also the family heads of the eight super families in Soaring Thunder Empire. A total of two hundred and ten people have the final voting rights!"
Ye Tianyi raised his eyebrows.
The Soaring Thunder Empire's election of the Emperor was quite interesting. Voting?
That was actually not very good!
Because there were already a lot of people who had secretly chosen a side!
But most of them did not choose a side!
Hearing this, the First Prince and Second Prince laughed in their hearts!
They had the biggest advantage!
Lei Yuyin frowned!
Not good!
She did not expect that they would really use voting. If she had known earlier, she would have roped in those people in the empire!
But it was too late now!
"The Princes and Princesses only need to show their excellence in the following rounds of competition to gain the favor of two hundred and ten people. They will also choose the one with the most outstanding performance to be the Emperor. Of course, the one with the most votes might not necessarily be the Emperor. Because there will still be a final discussion before we dare to let someone sit on the throne!"
The Grand Preceptor said!
Lei Feng clenched his fists!
Among these people, only the First Prince, Second Prince and Princesses were a threat. The rest were all trash!
As for the Fourth Prince …
He was probably just a piece of trash to mislead the public!
"Then we will now begin the first round, which is also the simplest. The Emperor's own strength and potential is definitely something that we need to pay attention to. Then, all the Princes, Young Master Lei Feng and Princesses, please release your realms, including your attributes. I will take note of it. This is related to whether the Princes and Princesses can become the Emperor. So, I hope that you will not hold back!"
The Grand Preceptor looked at them and said.
"Then, this Prince will go first!"
The First Prince, Lei Ling, stood up and his aura surged!
Hiss — —
The crowd could not help but exclaim in admiration!
"The First Prince is indeed the First Prince. He has always been one of the most outstanding princes in the empire. At the age of twenty-five, he is already in the seventh level of the Domain Realm. He is indeed worthy of being in the top fifty of the Heaven List. There is hope for him to advance to the Heavenly Dao within the next hundred years!"
"Yes, in terms of strength, he is indeed qualified to sit on the throne!
With the support of the Heavenly Dao and the Royal Family, his future is limitless! "
"..."
Lei Ling also felt the comments from those people and his heart was filled with confidence!
He had already won this round!
Because his second brother was much weaker than him!
