Chapter 1823 The eldest prince was kicked out
"Since your father has not issued a decree to confer the eldest prince as the prince, is the current situation any different from before?" Wen Huan said with a faint smile: "The position of the prince is still unresolved. Your Highness, the third prince, There is still a chance.”
"Do I still have a chance?" Zhao Lun's heart skipped a beat, his eyes lit up, and then he said distressedly: "Where is the chance? Now that my father is seriously ill, he has handed over all political affairs in the court to the boss, although he has not yet Decree, but isn’t the meaning obvious?”
"If your father really intended for His Highness the First Prince to take the position of Crown Prince, then why didn't he directly issue a decree to confer the title? In that case, wouldn't it be more legitimate for His Highness the First Prince to handle court affairs? Moreover, he could also serve as the crown prince. Be prepared for your subsequent enthronement," Wen Huan said.
Wen Huan's question stopped Zhao Lun. He couldn't figure it out for a while, so he couldn't help but ask: "Then tell me, why did my father do this?"
"In my opinion, your father still has not made up his mind about who to choose as the prince, so he has not been canonized." Wen Huan said: "However, the eldest prince seems to have been excluded."
"What? You said the boss was eliminated?" Zhao Lun was surprised and asked quickly.
"Yes!" Wen Huan said: "If your father really wants to make the eldest prince the prince, then this time is the best opportunity: he is seriously ill and needs someone to handle the court affairs. At the same time, because The death of the eighth prince involved several princes, but neither the eldest prince nor the fifth prince was involved. Therefore, at this time, it is most appropriate and justifiable to confer the eldest prince as the crown prince. Moreover, many princes, including you, the third prince, Because it is difficult to refute the matter of the eighth prince, but your father did not take the opportunity to make the eldest prince the prince. What does this mean? This means that your father did not intend to make the eldest prince the prince at all. Meaning!”
Listening to Wen Huan's explanation, Zhao Lun, who was already desperate, his eyes gradually brightened.
yes!
What Wen Huan said makes sense!
Now is indeed the best time to canonize the eldest prince as the prince, but his father did not do so. This is enough to show that his father indeed has no idea of canonizing the eldest prince as the prince. Otherwise, there will be a better opportunity than this. ?
there is none left!
Thinking of this, Zhao Lun's already desperate mentality suddenly came to life.
"You're right! The boss must have been tricked and eliminated. Otherwise, he should be handling political affairs as the prince now, but he is still just the prince now." Zhao Lun said: "Hahaha, I guess he hasn't even done that yet. Now that I understand what my father meant, wouldn’t it mean that I have one less competitor?”
"Congratulations to Your Highness, Third Prince, you are one step closer to becoming the crown prince, oh no, the emperor of the Yanfeng Kingdom." Wen Huan said with a smile.
"Haha, if I can ascend the throne, you have contributed a lot. Don't worry, as long as I sit on the throne, I will not forget your contribution. I will also form an alliance with your Shuiyue Kingdom on behalf of the Yanfeng Kingdom. As for the Tianji Kingdom, Let them go to hell!" Zhao Lun said in a good mood.
"The Third Prince said this, and I feel relieved. Our Majesty has always been very optimistic about you." Wen Huan said.
Wen Huan's words made Zhao Lun smile even more happily.
"Then what do we do now?" Yuan Ding asked.
"Yes, what should we do now? We can't keep watching here." Zhao Lun also asked quickly.
Although Wen Huan's explanation convinced Zhao Lun that the eldest prince had been kicked out, he himself had not been canonized as the prince after all. The competition for the crown prince's position was still fierce. What must he do to make him the prince? He stood out from many princes and became the crown prince of Yanfeng Kingdom.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince cannot do nothing." Wen Huan said: "In fact, if you do nothing now, you are undoubtedly sitting back and waiting for death. I believe that the other princes also understand that now has reached the most critical moment. Taking action means saying goodbye to the position of prince."
"Yeah." Zhao Lun kept nodding, "It's true that you can't do nothing, but what should I do?"
At present, the old emperor is seriously ill, more seriously than ever before, and no one is allowed to enter the palace to meet the saint. Therefore, it is obviously impossible to find a breakthrough from the old emperor.
In this case, he can only start from other aspects.
"Your Highness, do you still remember what happened to the Eighth Prince?" Wen Huan narrowed his eyes, and there was a dangerous light in the small gap.
Hearing Wen Huan's words, Zhao Lun's heart skipped a beat and he said, "Of course I remember! Speaking of which, I haven't settled this matter with you yet. You actually attacked Lao Ba without my consent, and even Take my people with you! You are deliberately trying to trick me!"
"Your Highness, you have wrongly blamed me for this matter." Wen Huan said: "After all, this is Yanyang City, the imperial capital of your Yanfeng Kingdom. Our Tianji Kingdom does not do many elaborate things here. If you want to assassinate the Eighth Prince, naturally I want to borrow some people. As for why I want to assassinate the Eighth Prince, I am also thinking about you and want to help you get rid of a competitor. "
"What happened to the other princes?" Zhao Lun's expression softened slightly.
"I don't know much about this matter." Wen Huan said: "It may be because other princes got the news from somewhere and wanted to take advantage of the troubled waters to get rid of a competitor, so this happened Such a coincidence."
"coincide?"
"Yes, it's a coincidence!" Wen Huan said.
"So, you are helping me by doing that?" Zhao Lun asked.
"Of course!" Wen Huan said, "I am also doing this according to the will of our Majesty. Our Majesty is very optimistic about you, Your Highness, so I will naturally try my best to help you."
Hearing Wen Huan repeatedly saying that the emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom is optimistic about him, Zhao Lun, who always feels good about himself, did not doubt anything, nor did he feel that it was inappropriate. Instead, he felt that it was natural that he was indeed the most suitable candidate to become the crown prince among the many princes, or even the next emperor.
"What do you mean by mentioning the matter of the eighth prince? Do you want to assassinate other princes again?" Zhao Lun asked.
"Yes!" Wen Huan nodded: "This is the most direct and effective way. As long as the threatening opponent is eliminated, the position of the crown prince will naturally be yours."
Hearing Wen Huan's words, Zhao Lun's heart jumped and he hesitated.
After all, those people were his brothers. It was okay for him not to know about the matter of the eighth prince before, but now, he was still a little hesitant to order him to take action against other princes.
