Chapter 2283 The divorced woman 35

And this also means that Li Miao can no longer hide it. After all, he can't let the old emperor appoint someone else as the crown prince.

But how to go from behind the scenes to the stage still needs to be figured out, at least to choose a good time.

In addition, Empress Zhang must be reminded of this matter, lest Empress Zhang think that the old emperor can live for many years, and she was not prepared, was caught off guard, and did not even have time to arrange for Li Miao to come on stage, which would be bad.

At that moment, An Ran told Empress Zhang her worries about the old emperor's health.

Aunt Zhao heard what she heard from Aunt Zhang, and after reporting to Queen Zhang, she said: "Fang Sizhen's words are also reasonable. No matter how your Majesty's health is, we have to make preparations in advance, so for the matter of establishing a prince, we are Shouldn't we be prepared and stop hiding behind? Or, as Fang Sizhen said, the emperor is in poor health and is preparing to establish a throne. We didn't get the news in advance, were not fully prepared, and let others take the lead. But it’s not good.”

After hearing this, Empress Zhang nodded and said: "It is indeed necessary to prepare. As Fang Sizhen said, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. However... preparations must be made secretly, and it is better not to do so for the time being. Go ahead and wait for those parties to fight for a while."

The reason why Queen Zhang still didn't plan to take action was because the other parties hadn't stopped fighting yet.

Speaking of this fight, the Zhang family naturally contributed a lot.

Yes, Queen Zhang and the Zhang family are not just sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. Of course, it is impossible to just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. After all, when it comes to seizing the throne, how can they just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight? There will be consequences, of course. They don't take the initiative to fight with other forces, but mostly take advantage of it and let several forces fight.

This is not only true for the Zhang family, but also for An Ran.

As early as she entered the palace, she had been arranging her own manpower. She had more connections and influence in the shadows of the palace than even Queen Zhang.

With so many people and power, it is too easy to fight against each other. After all, those clan candidates live in the palace. She only needs to do a little trick to make the two clan candidates dislike each other and start fighting.

These clan candidates started fighting, and they were unwilling to listen to the forces that supported them and coexist peacefully. The forces that supported them could not completely go against their wishes, so sometimes, even if they knew that they could not fight, they knew that it was self-defeating. Killing, knowing that the snipe and the clam are fighting for the fisherman's profit, but because these clan candidates don't like each other, they can only fight with each other if they start fighting.

In fact, in the fight between these people, the Zhang family and Queen Zhang may not be as angry as the An Ran people.

Moreover, An Ran has done many tasks in the palace and knows how to cause trouble. Therefore, the methods of setting fire are not only many and useful, but also cannot be discovered by others. Even some of the people she sent to set fire did not realize that she was actually provoking it. When those people were fighting, they only thought that she was kindly helping one of them, or siding with one of the parties, so she revealed some inside information to them to let them guard against their opponents. Little did they know that many of these inside information were actually specious. It's specifically designed to make people fight.

Even the people from the Anron faction didn't know that she was trying to make a fuss, and Empress Zhang didn't know even more. She just thought that these people were idiots, fighting all day long, and fighting according to her and her family's ideas, which was beneficial to them. This is God helping them.

As expected, the old emperor's body was rapidly declining and he began to linger in bed as An Ran thought.

As soon as the old emperor began to linger on his sickbed, the former dynasty's calls for the appointment of a prince became louder and louder, and the battles between the candidates of the various clans became more and more fierce, and there were even assassins who assassinated the candidates of the clan.

Not one clan candidate was assassinated, but all the people. Some people were not prepared enough and were killed. Others who were not killed were also injured. In the end, only one person was not assassinated. That person was quickly considered to be the mastermind. The emperor was furious and sent the clan candidate on his way with a glass of poisoned wine.

An Ran looked at it and was speechless, thinking about what the old emperor was doing. He didn't investigate the other party carefully. When he saw that the other party was fine, he just said that the other party was the mastermind and poisoned the person? Even a fool knows that that person has obviously been framed, right? After all, who would be stupid enough to kill everyone but himself?

It seems that the old emperor obviously didn't want to worry about it, so he did it perfunctorily. Anyway, to him, it didn't matter whether the deceased clan was wronged or not. He didn't bother to care. Who makes you stupid and can't prove yourself? Innocent.

But because nothing happened to Li Feng, An Ran didn't jump out and say anything even though she was speechless. Of course, as a female officer, she was not qualified to say anything.

Although a clan candidate died, other people couldn't help but feel frightened when they saw the old emperor killing someone easily, but some were happy and thought it was a good thing that there was one less competitor.

However, he was still worried about the assassin. Those who were not killed immediately asked their family members to find a few servants with outstanding martial arts value for themselves, and replace the servants who were following him but with poor martial arts value.

They are not princes or princes, and do not have personal bodyguards to protect them, so they can only ask people from their families to come over and protect themselves as the following people. After all, the old emperor allows these candidates for the clan to bring a few servants from home. The waiters around you, after all, the royal family will not be so unreasonable and let you enter the palace without even letting you bring an acquaintance.

Li Miao was actually fine and was not assassinated by the assassin, because he had already been protected by people with outstanding martial arts arranged by An Ran.

Since An Ran is ready to support Li Miao, she naturally has to protect him. After all, anything can happen in the palace. If she is not prepared, if Li Miao is killed, all her future actions will be ruined. , can Enron not protect Li Miao?

However, just in case there was nothing wrong with it, it was too special and different, and made people feel strange, Li Miao still let himself get injured, making it appear that something had happened to him.

In fact, among these injured people, there must be one person who is not injured. He is pretending that this person is the real murderer. However, the old emperor has already brought the "murderer" to justice, and now it is difficult for everyone to continue to find the real murderer. , after all, isn't that a slap in the old emperor's face? It's a slap in the old emperor's face. The old emperor hates them, how can they please him? They are appointed by him as heirs, so they can only be on guard.

After such an assassination, only five of the nine clan candidates who had not left that year were left - two were dead, one was killed by the old emperor, and one was seriously injured and disabled. The disability is natural. He could not be crown prince, so he was sent home, leaving only five.

These five, of course, included Li Miao, Li He who was not dead or disabled but was injured by Luck - Li He was not responsible for this, An Ran was sure of this - a murderer, and two others.
