Chapter 70: Bloody Throne

   "Father, what can you do for me?" Crown Prince William smiled.

  After Qin Tian was assassinated, his mood improved a lot. Although, he was somewhat regretful that he was not able to kill Qin Tian in one fell swoop. But he believes that there will be opportunities in the future. After all, it is impossible for Qin Tian's luck to be so good all the time.

  As for the situation this time, he also believes that he will not be traced to him. After all, this was not directly ordered by him. Even if Friedrich Franz III was tracked down, he would not be confessed.

   "Prince, do you know about Oscar?" William II asked coldly.

"Father, I was also very sad when I heard the news of Oscar's assassination. That murderer is really abominable. He dared to assassinate an important member of the royal family. It is a heinous crime. Father can definitely sentence him to death to avenge Oscar! "Crown Prince William looked bitter and bitter.

  Seeing such a situation, King William II couldn't help shaking his head. He knew that Crown Prince William didn't intend to admit it.

   "Prince, do you know who is really behind the scenes?" William II asked.

   "The man behind the scenes? Who is it? Could it be Oscar's competitors? After all, Oscar owns many companies, and it is understandable that he would offend some competitors." Crown Prince William pretended to be stupid. Anyway, he made up his mind and would not admit that he ordered the assassination. He is not a fool. If a crown prince really did such a thing, according to the law, it is entirely possible to be removed from the succession to the throne. Everything that Crown Prince William did was to preserve his right to inherit the throne, which was undoubtedly the most important thing to him.

   "Prince, according to what we have learned, the killer was sent by Friedrich Franz III. Do you have anything to say about this?" William II asked.

  Crown Prince William's eyes suddenly flashed a flash of panic. He did not expect that in such a short period of time, he had already tracked down Friedrich Franz III. Doesn't this show that William II already knew the truth about the entire assassination?

   "What should I do? The emperor already knows, what should I do? Should I confess to him? Then what will he think of me? Will my right to inherit the throne be lost?" Crown Prince William became a little flustered.

  However, he then made up his mind that he would never admit it. Otherwise, the consequences will be unpredictable. Anyway, as long as he firmly insisted that he didn't know about this matter, and then pushed everything to Friedrich Franz III, then there would be no problem.

   "Father, could this be a misunderstanding? How could Grand Duke Franz III do such a thing? I think there must be some misunderstanding." Crown Prince William said.

  King William II looked at Crown Prince William and couldn't help but become a little disappointed.

"Prince, you really let me down. At this moment, are you still unwilling to admit it? The killer who assassinated Oscar was clearly instructed by you to Friedrich Franz III." William II looked angry.

   "Father, no, I don't know about this, it has nothing to do with me!" Crown Prince William immediately denied it.

  Suddenly, the atmosphere froze a bit. William II believed that Crown Prince William was behind the scenes, but Crown Prince William denied it. Although, William II knew that his guess was correct. If Friedrich Franz III was to be arrested and interrogated, he would definitely get the result he wanted. However, the whole world will know that it will cause trouble. This will undoubtedly make the German Empire and the Hohenzollern family the laughing stock of the world. And this is undoubtedly what William II did not want to see.

After a while, William II said: "Prince, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I think we all know what's going on. In order to maintain the image of the royal family and ensure the peace of Germany, I'm not going to pursue it any further."

   Hearing what William II said, Crown Prince William breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he had made the right bet.

   "Starting tomorrow, you will move to the palace in Potsdam! Without my order, you must not leave there!" William II continued.

  Crown Prince William suddenly felt a basin of cold water pouring down his head, freezing his heart.

   "Father, are you going to put me under house arrest? No, you can't do this. You can't deprive me of my freedom. I am the Crown Prince of the German Empire!" Crown Prince William yelled.

   "You should reflect on it there, and when I feel that you have truly reflected on it, I will let you return to Berlin. During this period, your position as crown prince will not be deprived, and no one will announce it to the outside world." William II said.

   "No, father, you can't treat me like this. I'm your favorite son!" Crown Prince William pleaded.

  However, William II was unmoved. This time, Crown Prince William really let him down.

   "Essen, send His Highness the Crown Prince back!" William II ordered with a cold face.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Essen von Jonalet nodded.

   Immediately, two palace guards took Crown Prince William out of William II's office. During this period, Crown Prince William yelled like a rascal. But even this could not change William II's decision.

  When Qin Tian got the news in the hospital, he immediately felt much happier. It seemed that his wound didn't hurt so much anymore.

   "Congratulations, Your Highness. Although Your Majesty has not abolished Crown Prince William's succession to the throne, this undoubtedly shows that His Majesty's patience has reached its limit." Carl von Jonalet smiled.

  Qin Tian shook his head: "This is not what I want. Because of this, I almost lost my life!"

  If he were to exchange his own life for the right to inherit the throne, Qin Tian would not be willing. My life is gone, even if I have the right to inherit, so what?

  However, what happened this time allowed Qin Tian to see clearly the bloodshed in the royal family. For the succession to the throne, brothers will also turn against each other because of this. Even, they will kill each other. Qin Tian, ​​who was born in the East, has a deeper understanding of this. After all, among the royal families in the east, fighting for the throne was more **** than this.

"The throne is full of blood. If you are not ruthless, you will not be an emperor at all. This is the same regardless of the East and the West. Next time, I will never be ruthless or soft, and I will never let others point a gun at me. Me!" Qin Tian secretly made up his mind.
