Prime Minister Bai listened and then said, "Your Majesty, this must not be done. Although the Crown Prince occasionally suffers from madness, he is still the Crown Prince.

The succession rights of the Crown Prince can be arbitrarily stripped away; wouldn't that lead to chaos?
Feng Qingyang glanced at Lingsu and then, with a troubled expression, said, "But the Crown Prince's current physical condition is indeed unsuitable to take over Da Qin."
After speaking, he let out a deep sigh.
