Chapter 2655: What are you two playing at?
Chapter 2656 What are you two playing?
What?
Although he had been prepared, Peng Chong was still shocked when he heard these words coming from Peng Yu's mouth.
It took a long time before Peng Chong came back to his senses.
She looked at Huang Ying with some surprise, "Miss Huang, if the information I got is correct, it seems that Duke Dingguo intends to marry you to Brother Er Wang, right?"
When Huang Ying heard this, there was a hint of dissatisfaction on her face, "What does my father's decision have to do with me? The King of Beilu and I have already made a lifelong decision, and it is not something that my father can control."
Peng Chong stared blankly at the two people in front of him, as if his head had been hit hard.
What are these two playing?
Are you two familiar? Is this a life-long private decision?
Peng Chong was a very rational person, and he understood the reason why these two people did what they did almost instantly.
There is no doubt that this is revenge on the second prince, deliberately making him feel disgusted.
I have to say, it's quite disgusting.
If the second prince knew about this, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
As Peng Chong, he was also happy to see his second brother suffer a loss.
However, he is very rational. If Huang Ying marries Peng Yu, that means that with Huang Ying's status, she will be coerced into joining Peng Yu's faction regardless of whether Ding Guogong wants it or not.
Originally, Peng Yu was not very competitive among the eight princes. His brilliance was completely overshadowed by his compatriot brother.
But now, if Peng Yu gets the help of Ding Guogong, his power will definitely increase greatly.
You must know that Duke Dingguo is the leader of the eight great Dukes. He is top notch in terms of status and voice in front of the emperor.
What's more, three months later, during the Fengchan Conference, the Emperor will grant the eight great princes top-grade Dragon Yuan Fruit. If nothing unexpected happens, Dingguo Palace should be promoted to Seven Stars after the Fengchan Conference.
Having a father-in-law who is in the Seven Star Realm, he will definitely have great confidence in competing for the position of heir to the empire when the time comes.
Peng Chong originally thought that the only ones standing in front of him were the second and third sons, but now it seems that even if the second and third sons are taken down, among the remaining brothers, the only one in front of him is Peng Yu. This is his biggest obstacle.
In just a moment, thousands of thoughts flashed through Peng Chong's mind.
However, soon, a smile appeared on Peng Chong's face, "Sixth Brother, you hide it very deeply. Why didn't you tell Brother about such a good thing earlier? Haha, then should I congratulate Sixth Brother for getting such a good thing?" A beautiful lady..."
Even if they are all polite, it is not difficult to hear some sourness in the superficial politeness.
Acid, really sour.
I am also a prince, this is my Kunshan County, and I am so good, why should this woman choose him instead of me?
If Huang Ying could choose herself and be assisted by Ding Guogong, he dared to believe that she would never be worse than Peng Yu, or even worse than the second and third oldest.
However, what is the use of acid? Some things are life.
Moreover, Huang Ying is not stupid. Do you think she would choose a prince?
It is true that you are excellent, but what is the use of being excellent? You are just the child of a concubine. Peng Yu is the same as the second prince, the direct descendant of the emperor.
Why should I choose a concubine like you instead of choosing a legitimate prince?
According to the rules of the dynasty, if a concubine prince wants to replace the status of a legitimate prince, either the legitimate prince must be extremely bad, or the concubine prince must be good enough to put others to shame.
The third child is a concubine. The reason why he can compete with the second prince is because the third child is good enough. He has reached the five-star perfection realm and is even about to enter the six-star realm. He is already ten miles ahead of the other princes.
Moreover, this was not enough. The third prince also had military merits. His accumulated military merits and his status in the dynasty's army made it difficult for Emperor Zun to ignore him.
This point is simply not comparable to Peng Chong and others.
Peng Chong is only in the fourth-star realm now, and he is similar to Peng Yu. He has just entered the fourth-star realm not long ago. As for military achievements, he also has them, but he is not comparable to the third prince.
Thinking of these, Peng Chong was distracted for a moment.
Peng Yu said, "Fifth brother, let's talk about business."
Business?
Peng Chong frowned slightly, and it was not difficult for him to guess what Peng Yu wanted to say.
Before Peng Yu could speak, Peng Chong said, "Sixth brother, to tell you the truth, I contacted Wangdu last night. I didn't dare to report to my father about what happened to you, sixth brother. After all, we have no evidence. , if the second brother bites him to death and refuses to acknowledge it, there is nothing we can do against him..."
"However, I inquired about the situation in the royal capital."
"After the Jade Emperor Mountain is consecrated in three months, my father will probably announce the candidate for the Crown Prince. According to the news from the palace, recently, my father has been interested in letting the second son handle the imperial government affairs. I have the intention of supervising the country. I can see clearly, and I think you should also be able to see clearly. Whatever we want to do now, it is probably too late. "
Speaking of this, Peng Chong sighed helplessly, and a sense of powerlessness arose spontaneously.
Peng Yu's brows furrowed slightly, "With so many of our brothers, only the second oldest one has always been with my father. My father is obsessed with cultivation, so asking him to help with political affairs should be..."
"hehe."
Peng Chong chuckled lightly, "Sixth brother, you are just comforting yourself. Why can the second brother obviously have his own fiefdom, but he can become a vassal without leaving? Don't you understand? Father respects the people he values. , it’s obviously just his second child.”
"Where's the third child?"
Peng Yu said in a deep voice, "The third child's prestige in the court is not low, and his contribution to the empire is not comparable to that of the second child. How can the third child not react at all to my father's actions?"
"Huh? Credit?"
Peng Chong smiled miserably, "We brothers, who are divided into various states, can't take some credit for it? No matter how high the prestige of the court is, what can we do? He is the son of the emperor and the empress. After the death of the boss, he will be the eldest son. , who can compete with him?"
"I have now figured it out. My father keeping him by my side is actually just a form of protection."
"The third child is great, but it's a pity that he is a commoner like me. This background alone is enough to erase all his achievements."
…
"Didn't my father always think highly of the third child?" Peng Yu said.
Peng Chong shook his head, "This is the sad thing about the third child. He can obviously see hope, but that position is simply a castle in the air and cannot be touched. Now I feel that my father gave him hope, but he just didn't want the second child to do it. The family is so powerful that we don’t want our second child to swell, so we need different voices in the government..."
"So, don't look at the glory of the third child. In fact, like us, he is just a stepping stone prepared by the father for the second child."
