Everyone raised their glasses in response, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.

The prince survived the catastrophe, and His Royal Highness returned to Xiliang. In the future, Xiliang will only become more and more prosperous.

"Everyone, I would like to take this opportunity to say a few words."

At this time, Lu Wanjun stood up slowly and said with a smile: "First of all, the palace's escape this time was all due to your loyalty and courage, and you fought for each other. I am very honored to work with you."

"It is our honor to serve the prince."

"Yes! If it weren't for the prince, we wouldn't have the good life we have today. Our prosperity and wealth are all given by the prince."

"No matter what happens, we will swear allegiance to the prince to the death!"

Major generals and high-ranking officials from various places all agreed.

"Okay, okay, I understand everyone's thoughts."

Lu Wanjun smiled and nodded, then added: "In addition to thanking you all, I also have something to announce, so I plan to elect a successor in advance and give up the throne."

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other in shock and confusion.

Although many people know that Lu Wanjun is not in good health, in their opinion, he should be able to survive for a few more years.

Now that internal and external troubles have just been resolved, Lu Wanjun is about to give way, which inevitably makes people a little off guard.

"Your Majesty, isn't this too hasty?" Li Yishuang advised next to him.

"Yes, Your Majesty, you are in good health and live a long life. Why did you give up the throne so early?" Zhang Ao was very upright.

Although the rest of the people were confused, no one dared to speak.

If you try to persuade Lu Wanjun, you may offend the future new prince, so at this time, smart people will choose to wait and see what happens.

"I know very well about my body that I won't be able to live for long. Taking advantage of everyone's presence now, arranging my funeral arrangements in advance can be regarded as fulfilling my wish." Lu Wanjun smiled lightly.
