Chapter 341 The Patriarch of the Chen Family

The second prince was trembling, so frightened that he didn't even dare to raise his head.

He indeed failed to win over the head of the Chen family, and then began to win over Chen Fenghua, hoping to support Chen Fenghua in becoming the head of the Chen family.

The Chen family is as wealthy as any other country. Such huge funds and connections are extremely important to the second prince and must be obtained.

His original plan was to find an opportunity to get rid of Chen Yuqing, the head of the Chen family, and then let Chen Fenghua succeed as the head of the family, but Chen Fenghua disagreed life and death.

Chen Fenghua always thought about brotherhood, so this plan was never implemented.

If the head of the Chen family is not dead, how can Chen Fenghua become the head of the family? Because of this, Chen Fenghua and the second prince had some unpleasant troubles.

In other words, in fact, Chen Fenghua is already the second prince's son, just because there is no agreement on the issue of the head of the family.

Therefore, there is no need for the second prince to assassinate Chen Fenghua.

Although Chen Fenghua is a little disobedient, he is his person after all. How can he win the support of the Chen family if he kills him.

He's not that stupid yet.

Chen Fenghua was suddenly killed. The second prince was a little confused at first as to who would kill him, but then he quickly figured it out. It was clearly his good brother who discovered that Chen Fenghua had taken refuge with him, so he sent someone to Get rid of him, and then frame him.

These methods made him shudder.

"You are a good trick. You even thought of wooing Chen Fenghua to replace Chen Yuqing. It's just that you were calculated by others. You made a wrong step and made a wrong step. You can't stay in this royal capital, otherwise it will be difficult to save your life."

King Qin looked at the second prince, straightened his expression, and said.

"Father, I don't want to leave. I don't want to leave you. I want to stay with you."

The second prince pleaded sincerely.

King Qin walked to the second prince, grabbed the second prince's chest, lifted him up, looked directly into his eyes, and said with an iron heart: "Are you reluctant to leave me? You are reluctant to leave this throne. Tell you, letting you leave is to save your life. Your methods are just child's play in his eyes. Your every move is being monitored. You don't even know how many of his eyes and ears are around you. , how can you argue with him?"

"Listen to me. After you return, immediately leave for Qingzhou. I will find you a fiefdom in Qingzhou. You will be stationed in Qingzhou from now on."

When the second prince heard this, his face suddenly turned pale and he collapsed to the ground. With this, he lost his qualification to compete for the heir apparent, which meant that he was the loser.

After fighting for the throne with the eldest prince for so long, he didn't expect that he would fail so miserably, and it was just because of Chen Fenghua, a dead man.

"Qingzhou——"

The second prince suddenly remembered that Qingzhou was not the seat of Qingfeng Sect? Qingzhou is now the territory of Qingfeng Sect, and the relationship between Qingfeng Sect and the Qin royal family is not very good. Will I still survive after leaving?

"Father, even if I leave the royal capital, I can't go to Qingzhou. That Qin Ye in Qingzhou is extremely vicious. If he knew that I had gone to Qingzhou, would I still be alive?" M..

"What do you know? If you go to other states, your life will definitely not be saved. Only by going to Qingzhou can you save your life."

King Qin said angrily.

"But that Qin Ye is a devil."

The second prince trembled and said.

"Don't worry, I will send a letter to Xiaoliu. As long as she is here, Qin Ye will not touch you. From now on, you can live in Qingzhou with peace of mind. Remember not to return to the capital at any time."

"My son, I obey!"

Seeing that King Qin had already made arrangements, the second prince could only accept his fate.

The second prince staggered out of the palace, and soon an order from King Qin came from the palace, granting the title of Marquis of Anle to the second prince, guarding Qingzhou, and leaving for Qingzhou as soon as possible.

After the second prince returned to the palace, he immediately investigated everyone in the palace, and he really found a lot of suspicious people, including maids, cooks, and guards. What he didn't expect was that one of his most beloved concubines turned out to be... He is also a member of the eldest prince.

This made him so angry that he threw her alive into the well and sealed the mouth of the well with stones.

At noon the next day, the second prince left the capital with the people from the palace, and there were only a few officials who came to see him off.

The departure of the second prince this time represents his failure in the fight for the throne. Whether he can survive in the future depends on whether the new King of Qin will spare his life.

Many of the ministers who originally supported the second prince went to visit the eldest prince at this time.

However, the eldest prince closed the door of the palace and refused to see anyone.

At this time, the Grand Prince's Mansion.

The eldest prince was enjoying tea comfortably and was in a very happy mood. Although he did not kill the second prince, he also drove away the second prince.

The remaining princes were all useless, and from now on the position of crown prince could only be his.

"Your Highness, you are in a good mood today."

At this moment, a man in a black cloak suddenly appeared behind the eldest prince.

The eldest prince was not surprised by his sudden appearance and did not even look back.

"My second brother is finally gone, so His Highness is naturally happy."

The eldest prince squinted his eyes and sipped the tea gently, savoring the taste of the tea.

"But he's not dead, aren't you afraid of his resurgence?"

The man in black cloak sat opposite the eldest prince, glanced at the tea set on the table, and asked aloud.

"My father drove him away and made him a marquis, which shows that he has given up on my poor second brother. Now that he has left the royal capital, it is even less likely to cause any trouble. His foundation is in the royal capital. , Now that he has left, those who support him will either remain neutral or defect to His Highness, and there will be no place for him in the capital."

The eldest prince put down his tea cup and said happily.

"I heard that when His Highness the Second Prince left, he executed all of your spies, even his most beloved concubine."

"Haha, they are just a few chess pieces on the left and right. They are of no use now. If they die, they will die. Your Highness will let others treat their families favorably."

The eldest prince smiled and said.

"Your Highness is indeed the best among men. It seems that I did not make a mistake in choosing you."

"Now everyone in the royal capital knows that you are mine, so why are you so secretive?"

The eldest prince chuckled lightly and said.

The cloaked man slowly opened his hat, revealing his pale face hidden under the cloaked hat.

If anyone recognizes this face, they will be very surprised, because this is Chen Yuqing, the head of the Chen family.

"Now some people in the capital are saying privately that it was His Highness who sent people to kill Chen Fenghua and put the blame on the second prince. But how did they know that the person who really killed Chen Fenghua was not His Highness, but you, his beloved 's biological brother."

"Master Chen, my highness has taken the blame for you."

The eldest prince looked at Chen Yuqing with a smile.

"Your Highness is joking. If it weren't for His Highness's great cause, I wouldn't have made such a move. After all, he is my biological brother."

Chen Yuqing said with a sad look on his face.

"Really? But how did your Highness hear that the two of you have been at odds for a long time. It seems that you have some leverage in his hands. Getting rid of him this time is not just for His Highness."

The eldest prince laughed and looked at Chen Yuqing thoughtfully.
