Chapter 1824 Mutual Exploitation

Wen Huan naturally saw the obvious hesitation on Zhao Lun's face, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Highness, now is not the time to care about brotherhood. The fight for the throne, no matter which country it is in, no matter where it is." At that time, things were quite cruel, and they were all matters of life and death. As you know about the Eighth Prince, other princes would immediately attack others as long as they had the opportunity. In the case of the Eighth Prince, , they don’t think about brotherhood, so even if you don’t do anything to them, they may be planning to do something to you. If you think about brotherhood, they may not think so, and if you fail , If you don’t become the prince and the emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom, do you think that the prince who ascends the throne will be able to let you go? "

Wen Huan's words made Zhao Lun's expression keep changing. Wen Huan had actually said this before. Although the words were not exactly the same, the meaning was the same. The fight for the crown prince's position was not about playing games, but A pretty cruel thing.

Moreover, the incident with the Eighth Prince happened not long ago. Zhao Lun did not know that the reason why the other princes were involved in this incident was the same as his situation. They were all deceived by Wen Huan. In fact, , they didn’t know it before.

But it was obvious that Wen Huan didn't know this. He believed what Wen Huan said and just thought that the other princes, for the sake of the position of prince and the throne, had become somewhat indifferent and had no regard for their brothers at all. The meaning of love.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lun showed a cruel look on his face: "You are right, this is a cruel thing. Even if I give up now, they may not let me go. Father obviously doesn't like Lao Ba. There is no intention of passing the throne to Lao Ba. They can all take action against Lao Ba, so it is very possible for them to take action against me. Instead of sitting back and waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative! "

Hearing Zhao Lun's words, a smile appeared on Wen Huan's face and he said: "If His Royal Highness the Third Prince thinks so, that's the best thing. To become a qualified emperor, some things must be given up, such as family affection!"

Wen Huan's words reminded Zhao Lun of his father.

There was not much father-son affection between his father and him, or between him and other princes. When he was young, his father was very strict with him. Except in front of the seventh princess Zhao Qi, the old emperor behaved Like a normal father, in front of other children, especially in front of their princes, the old emperor didn't behave like a father at all, but more like a monarch.

It was obvious that the old emperor had given up on family affection. At least, he did not show any affection in front of them. Thinking of this, Zhao Lun became more determined in his mind.

"How do you want me to help you?" Zhao Lun said.

"I need your highness to give me more help. As for the rest, I will naturally do it." Wen Huan said.

"No problem!" Zhao Lun said.

Wen Huan's words made Zhao Lun very satisfied. He lacked people like Wen Huan who could handle such shady things. Although Yuan Ding was very capable and trustworthy, he provided more advice and suggestions. Help, as for this kind of assassination, Yuan Ding is obviously not good at it.

Now with Wen Huan's help, it was perfect. Zhao Lun was very satisfied with Wen Huan's appearance.

Wen Huan got what he wanted, and most importantly, he made Zhao Lun trust him again. He left the third prince Zhao Lun's house with satisfaction. He still had a lot to do.

What happened in Zhao Lun's house will also happen in the houses of other princes. Of course, it was not Wen Huan who came forward, but his men, but the rhetoric was the same.

After Wen Huan left, Yuan Ding said to Zhao Lun: "Your Highness, Wen Huan is a thoughtful and scheming person. He is by no means a small role. Your Highness needs to be more careful."

"Then do you think he is trustworthy?" Zhao Lun asked.

Between Wen Huan and Yuan Ding, Zhao Lun naturally trusts Yuan Ding more, so he also wants to listen to Yuan Ding's opinions more.

"For now, he should be credible." Yuan Ding thought for a moment and said, "I agree with his analysis of the eldest prince's situation. We still have a chance."

Wen Huan's previous analysis not only convinced Zhao Lun, but also convinced Yuan Ding. This was also the reason why Yuan Ding had not spoken just now. He felt that what Wen Huan said was reasonable, and regarding Wen Huan's arrangements , and I have no opinion.

"You say that, and I feel relieved." Zhao Lun said: "I also know that he is from Shuiyue Kingdom and is not trustworthy, but now we need his help. He may be using us, but why should we? Aren't you using him? Everyone is just using each other. When I take the throne as prince, he will be my first gift to my father!"

Looking at Zhao Lun with a gloomy look on his face, Yuan Ding suddenly realized that he had looked down on Zhao Lun before. That was right. He was born in an imperial family and it was impossible for him to have no brains at all. Although Zhao Lun was not very smart, he still had his own abilities. ideas.

Obviously, Zhao Lun did not completely believe in Wen Huan, which made Yuan Ding even more relieved.

On the other side, other princes' mansions also welcomed secret agents from Shuiyue Kingdom. Through their own efforts, they regained the trust of these princes and prepared for the next action.

At this time, Hou Zhong was slowly drinking tea at his house, and soon a servant came to report the news.

"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong, brothers?" Hou Zhong asked, putting down his teacup.

"It's definitely right!" said the subordinate.

"Hmph! These rats from Shuiyue Country are really well hidden, and now they finally show their fox tails!" Hou Zhong said with murderous intent.

As the head of a special department, catching spies from other countries arranged in Yanfeng has always been one of Hou Zhong's tasks, and one of the most important tasks. Under his attack, the number of spies from other countries hidden in Yanyang City has been greatly reduced, but Hou Zhong knows very well that he has not dealt with those people completely. It's just that the remaining people are more cunning and know how to hide better, so he has not been able to make much progress.

But this time, these spies from Shuiyue Country seemed to be unable to hold back, and all jumped out, making trouble in Yanyang City. The death of the eighth prince was related to them. Strictly speaking, this was Hou Zhong's dereliction of duty, and the old emperor had already criticized him, and Hou Zhong wanted to save his face and find all these damn guys.
