C175 Who Would dare to Take the Seat

Who dares to take the seat?

Dadan Dynasty,imperial City,dan Imperial Palace!

Dan Zenian sat at the top seat of the main hall, facing Dan Linger. After that, he went down the line, the Fourth Prince, the Sixth Princess, the Seventh Princess... all the way until the 35th Prince.

The 36th Princess was Dan Yue, and Dan Yue did not come. It was also Emperor Dan who deliberately did not summon Dan Yue. He already knew what happened just now, so he did not plan to let Dan Yue come to welcome Dan Linger.

Emperor Dan was high up in the sky. He glanced at the people in the hall. These were all his children. He smiled and looked at Dan Linger. "Linger,i heard that you came back to save the people who were unconscious at Yue Er's place?"

Dan Linger stood up and said to Emperor Dan, "Royal Father,i came back under the orders of my master this time. It was indeed to save a person. It was also the person who was unconscious in my sister's palace."

"Oh?" Emperor Dan was puzzled, and asked, "Is there a reason?"

"I'm not too sure about that. It was Master's order, so I don't want to ask." Dan Linger answered truthfully.

Emperor Dan nodded and smiled. "I still remember the auspicious omen that descended from the west when you were just born. That was why I sent you to the Western Land when you were young. I paid my respects to Master Kuchan. It has been dozens of years since you came back, but you still came back under such circumstances. Royal Father is ashamed."

Dan Linger shook her head and said, "Royal Father, my daughter knows your good intentions. Royal Father, you don't have to feel ashamed. I have been living well in the Western Land all these years. I am very grateful to Royal Father for being able to send me to the Western Land to learn Buddhist Dharma."

Emperor Dan smiled and asked, "I wonder how Master Kuchan is doing recently?"

Dan Linger thought for a while and said softly, "Before I left,master seemed very anxious. I asked him why, and he told me to return to Great Heavenly Music Temple. I smiled and promised Master that I will return to Great Heavenly Music Temple and that I will bring that person with me."

Emperor Dan paused for a moment and frowned. He asked, "Does this mean that the man who was unconscious in Dan Yue Moon Palace is very important to your Master?"

Dan Linger did not nod nor shake her head. She replied, "Maybe. I don't understand what Master is going to do, so I have no way to judge."

Emperor Dan nodded in relief. "Alright, then let's not ask anymore. Let's start the banquet!"

Dan Linger shook her head and asked loudly, "Royal Father, why is big brother not here?"

Emperor Dan glared at Dan Linger and his expression changed instantly. Dan Linger saw that Royal Father's expression changed, so she looked at Dan Zenian. Because Dan Zenian asked her to ask Emperor Dan, Dan Linger felt that Dan Zenian knew something.

Dan Zenian waved his hand and whispered to Dan Linger. "No,i don't know anything."

Dan Linger did not believe him and continued to glare at Dan Zenian.

Suddenly, Emperor Dan opened his mouth and said, "Linger, don't blame your second brother. Other than your second brother and me, no one else knew about this matter. It was I who told him not to reveal any information. Since you want to ask, then I'll make this matter public. After all, many people have been asking me about your elder brother's whereabouts these days."

Emperor Dan stood up and glanced at the crowd. After that, he continued, "Ten years ago, the Sect Leader of the Nine Li Royal Sect, the largest sect in the east of Southern Wilderness, came to meet me. He brought his daughter with him. Your big brother has taken a fancy to that girl. From now on,i will never forget that I scolded him. He was the heir to the dynasty, the future emperor. How can I like the daughter of a small sect's Sect Leader? "

"Oh, what happened after that?" Dan Linger was very interested and continued to ask.

"Later on? Your big brother was completely captivated by that woman. He went to the Nine Li Royal Sect to propose marriage privately. I chased him out of the Imperial City in a fit of rage. Originally,i thought that he could beg me. But that kid was stubborn. He actually married into the Nine Li Royal Sect. He wrote to me and told me that he had given up on the magnificent mountains and rivers in the Dadan Dynasty. He won't be the Crown Prince of the Dadan Dynasty anymore! "

Dan Linger did not expect that her elder brother was the one who loved beauties and did not love the country. This was simply unheard of. She could not help but shake her head. "Royal Father, could it be that you also did not want to compromise and allowed elder brother to mess around like this?"

"Rubbish? No, he was not messing around. He was serious. He is now the deputy Sect Leader of the Nine Li Royal Sect." Emperor Dan shook his head. "Your big brother has his own thoughts. That's why he isn't messing around. Of course,i won't stop him."

Dan Linger took a deep breath. She didn't know what Royal Father's intentions were, so she didn't ask further.

Dan Linger just sat down, but Emperor Dan continued, "So, now I have a difficult problem."

Dan Linger paused and asked, "What problem does Royal Father have? Tell us and let everyone come up with ideas for you. We are all Royal Father's children and family."

Emperor Dan smiled and nodded. "That's exactly what I wanted. Since Linger is back today,i will tell everyone my problem."

After saying that, Emperor Dan stood up. He first glanced at the crowd and then slowly spoke. "Actually, it's a very simple matter. Your big brother has given up on inheriting my throne. When I abdicate, who should I hand the throne over to?"

After saying that, Emperor Dan looked at the crowd with a smile.

However, the people in the hall were no longer calm. All of their eyes were wide open. They didn't expect that Emperor Dan would want to discuss this matter. This was a matter of the entire dynasty, and it should be decided by the ministers of the dynasty. However, they didn't expect Emperor Dan to bring this matter up at this banquet.

Everyone understood that the First Prince had left, and the candidate for the crown prince would naturally be the Second Prince. However, Emperor Dan had taken such a simple matter as a troublesome matter, which meant that Emperor Dan wasn't going to appoint the Second Prince as the crown prince.

Dan Linger naturally understood the meaning behind this, but she still stood out and said with a smile. "Royal Father, what kind of problem is this? Since Big Brother has given up on the throne, it should be Second Brother who takes over the throne. Besides Big Brother,second Brother is the Elder Brother. Could it be that Royal Father is muddle-headed?"

Emperor Dan looked at Dan Linger with a smile that was not a smile. He knew Dan Linger's temperament, so he had expected Dan Linger to say this. He had already prepared an answer.

"New Year Selection. Tell me, are you willing to take the seat?" Emperor Dan called Dan Zenian and asked coldly.

Dan Zenian saw that Royal Father's expression was not right and immediately understood. He quickly replied, "Royal Father,i don't dare to take the position. Without Royal Father's permission,i don't dare to take the position of Big Brother, and I don't dare to become the heir."

Emperor Dan heard what he wanted to hear and laughed. He looked at Dan Linger and said, "Linger, you heard it. Your second brother personally said that he doesn't dare to take the position and he doesn't even dare to take the position. How can I dare let him take the position?"

Dan Linger saw that there was something fishy about it and shook her head. "Royal Father, you should have a candidate a long time ago."

Emperor Dan thought about it and said, "No..."

After that, Emperor Dan smiled again. "Actually, you guessed it right, but it's also not right."

"Royal Father, what exactly do you want to say?" Dan Linger asked.

"How about I pass the throne to you?" Emperor Dan asked while staring at Dan Linger.

Dan Linger was shocked. She immediately reacted and shook her head. "No, Royal Father, how can you pass the throne to me? No."

Dan Linger did not hesitate to reject Emperor Dan. She continued, "I am now a Buddhist. I have long looked down on power. I am pursuing the Great Dao and power. Power will be a burden to me."

Emperor Dan frowned and smiled lightly, "Linger has been deeply influenced by Buddhism. If you have such thoughts, this throne must belong to you."

Dan Linger became anxious and shook her head once again. "Royal Father, you are joking. I have already rejected you. Why do you still want to force it on me? If you really want to force it on me,i will leave the Imperial City tomorrow and return to the Western Land."

Emperor Dan saw that Dan Linger was anxious and laughed, "Alright. Since Linger is determined to not accept it, then I will choose someone else."

After that, Emperor Dan turned his gaze to the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince smiled honestly. "Royal Father, it's better if you don't accept it. Even Liu doesn't dare to accept it. I don't have the ability to do so. "

Emperor Dan nodded and continued to look at the sixth and seventh princess.

The sixth and seventh princess were silent and did not speak.

Emperor Dan also did not speak and continued to look at Dan Si. Finally, he stopped looking at Dan Si.

"Dan Si, how about you come and take the seat?"

Dan Si was drinking with his head down when he was stopped by Emperor Dan. He was shocked and quickly stood up. "Royal Father,i think I should focus on being the law enforcer of the Imperial City. The responsibility of the throne is too heavy. I'm afraid I can't take it."

Emperor Dan nodded and praised Dan Si. "En, very good. You know how to adapt to the situation!"

After that, Emperor Dan looked at the Thirteenth Prince,dan Ying, and asked, "What about you,dan Ying?"

Dan Ying knew that this was Emperor Dan testing him. Without any hesitation, he replied, "No, Royal Father. You should choose someone else."

Emperor Dan frowned and snorted coldly. "What? You all don't want to take the throne? Don't you all covet it?"

Dan Ying didn't expect Emperor Dan to look at him angrily. He couldn't say anything about it. He could only stand up quickly and speak in a low voice, "Royal Father. This... It's not that the children aren't worried about you, but you are asking this question now. No one would dare to take the throne. This was related to the dignity of the entire Dadan Dynasty. Apart from Big Brother, only Second Brother could take the seat. But if Second Brother doesn't dare to take the throne, how can we, little brothers and sisters, dare to take the throne? "

Emperor Dan understood what Dan Ying meant. He snorted lightly. "Dan Ying, you mean that you originally wanted to take over the position, but your Second Brother didn't dare to take over the position previously, which affected you. Are you afraid that your Second Brother will take revenge on you?"

Dan Ying trembled and quickly knelt on the ground. He said, "Royal Father! What are you talking about? I have never said this before! What are you saying? Aren't you trying to harm me? "

Emperor Dan said coldly. " I'm trying to harm you. You are my son. Who dares to harm you? If you become the Crown Prince... Don't tell me that the things you obtain aren't enough to save your life? If you dare to step forward to take the throne,i will need the Azure Dragon to protect you at all times until you ascend to the throne, what do you think?"

Emperor Dan's promise was worth a thousand gold coins. When Dan Ying received Emperor Dan's promise, he was very tempted. This was the temptation of power, and he couldn't stand it any longer.

Emperor Dan saw that Dan Ying was hesitating, so he snorted coldly. "You are still thinking of taking over the position. Get out of my way!"

After saying that, Emperor Dan returned to his seat and said loudly, "Since no one dares to take over the position, then good, this matter..."

Before Emperor Dan could finish, at this time, a woman stood out from the end of the hall. She walked slowly towards Emperor Dan and said loudly, "Royal Father, I, Dan Qiwei dare to take the seat!"

Emperor Dan stopped what he was about to say. He looked at Dan Qiwei and smiled. "Qi Wei, it's you!"

Dan Qiwei nodded. "It's me, Royal Father. I dare to take the seat."
