After returning to the capital, Ling Zhi asked the emperor for instructions, and once retreated in the secret room of his palace. This time for the retreat, Ling Zhi was fully prepared, and he asked the housekeeper to refuse visitors for him, so that no one would come to the secret room to disturb him. At the same time, the important affairs of the palace were arranged, for the minister's request to establish the prince, before the retreat, Ling Zhi told his father what he thought, he said to the emperor that he was not suitable to be a candidate for the prince, one is that he is suitable for the charge, in a life that he may never marry another woman, if he is made the prince and will become the emperor in the future, if he does not stand up, he will be discussed by the courtiers, and he feels that his father did not choose the right prince, and the most important point is that he has never wanted to be a prince, nor has he ever peeped into the throne。 If the relationship between himself and his two younger brothers is strange because of the position of the prince, he would rather not. and recommended two younger brothers to the emperor, and asked the father to choose a suitable person who can inherit the unification among the two younger brothers to be established as the crown prince. The emperor did not make an immediate decision at that time, but only said that he would carefully consider his suggestion, and then asked him to be careful when he was in retreat, not to rush and go mad himself. Ling Zhi also kept his father's concern in mind, after all, he knew that if there was a problem with the cultivation of the True Cultivation Exercises, it would be possible to cultivate like a demonic Dao, and it was even possible to die in the Dao, so when he finished handling and explaining all the things, after coming to the secret room and locking the secret room, he first sat down cross-legged to let himself empty his mind and calm down, and then he practiced in accordance with the True Cultivation Method.

Just when Ling Zhi was cultivating in the secret room of the palace, the emperor made a decision in his heart about Ling Zhi's suggestion after a few thoughts, he knew the growth and talent of his other two emperors, he thought that although these two emperors were a little different from Ling Zhi, they were also very good, and he had no way to decide whether to establish that son as the crown prince, so he decided to communicate with his two princes first to see their answers to the prince's candidates, and then after chatting with them, their demeanor and hearts to decide who was more suitable for the prince。 In the following time, after the emperor dealt with the twists and turns, he asked people to call King Zhou to the imperial study first, and at the same time let people pay attention to the situation of the Chu Palace's palace and the reaction of the King of Chu. When King Zhou went to the palace to see the emperor, the king of Chu in the palace of Chu already knew, and he guessed in his heart that his father might be the candidate for the prince for them, and at the same time, the candidate for the prince in his heart has always been his eldest brother Ling Zhi, and he himself has never thought about it, because he realized from his father's busyness the hard work of being an emperor, and it is better to be a prince to be at ease. And the palace is indeed as he thought in his heart, the emperor asked a question about the selection of the crown prince, and the answer of King Ling Wen of Zhou was the imperial brother Ling Zhi. The emperor already had an answer in his heart, so he was not too shocked, but asked if Ling Zhi was unwilling to be the crown prince, who was more suitable between him and Ling Chen, the king of Chu, originally thought in the emperor's heart that Ling Wen would definitely say himself, after all, the temptation of the throne was very great, but when the emperor didn't expect it, Ling Wen's answer turned out to be Ling Chen, the king of Chu, his reason was that the third brother was better than himself and more suitable for the position of the prince, and the emperor saw sincerity from Ling Wen's face, it was from sincerity, he really didn't care about the throne.

After King Zhou left, the emperor summoned the King of Chu in the same way and asked the same question, so that he did not expect that he also did not choose himself. After the emperor chatted for a long time, he let him leave, and after careful consideration in the next few days, the emperor already had the answer in his heart, and he already knew who should be established as the crown prince. Later, when the ministers proposed to canonize the crown prince during the court meeting, the emperor was not angry at Longyan this time but only asked the ministers about the selection of the prince, and none of the ministers came out to answer, and the emperor asked Zuo Xiang to talk back, and Zuo Xiang said that several princes were very good, and he and others could not make decisions for His Majesty, so His Majesty made his own decisions. After that, the ministers all replied like this, and the emperor didn't talk nonsense when he saw the time, and immediately announced that the third son, King Chu, was the crown prince, and the ministers were very surprised at that time, and they all thought that it should be King Liheng, but they didn't expect to set up King Chu, but some of them were His Majesty's affairs, and they were not qualified to comment.

Also puzzled was Ling Chen, the king of Chu, who never thought that he would be made the crown prince, although he had doubts in his heart, he still accepted the decree in the court. Later, when he was in the next court, he asked his father why he made himself the crown prince, and the emperor told him the answer and the importance of his two brothers, and then Ling Chen understood, he didn't expect the second brother to value him so much, and he felt that he would repay them well in the future.
