Chapter 1399 Stimulating the Eighth Prince

"How strong is it? No one knows. After all, it has been hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to strike." Zhao Zhen was a little annoyed, but his face remained calm. "If the Eighth Prince is concerned about this matter, why not investigate it with us?"

The Eighth Prince's expression froze when he heard this, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

He wanted to reject Zhao Zhen and then guide him to tell him about Tu Yuanzhou.

But when he thought that the Xintian Society was watching him nearby, all the thoughts running through the Eighth Prince's mind were suppressed.

He stared at Zhao Zhen coldly, and he didn't know what he was thinking about. He suddenly smiled and said calmly, "Tu Yuanzhou wants to annex the New Heaven Society."

Zhao Zhen nodded immediately: "The Lord does have such a plan, but it is difficult to find the traces of the New Heaven Society. He has no choice but to choose some people to cooperate with, and then everyone will share the New Heaven Society."

"If he is interested, he should come to me in person instead of sending you to say some specious words." The Eighth Prince felt confident when he heard this.

Zhao Zhen took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "My lord is now the Green King, and he will be the emperor in the next step. How can he fall into danger?"

"Tu Yuanzhou is a traitor. How can he be qualified to be the emperor?" the Eighth Prince said sarcastically.

Zhao Zhen's eyes darkened, and then he said firmly: "Just because he is the grandson of Prince Mingde, he is more qualified than you to become the emperor."

The Eighth Prince glanced at him, his tone becoming more sarcastic: "If he is really the grandson of Prince Mingde, then what about the rumors that spread throughout Qingzhou? It can't be that he is really innocent, like a lotus flower that grows out of mud without being stained."

Speaking of the old emperor, the eighth prince hated him to death.

If there was no problem with the old emperor's bloodline, he could have stood on the side of justice and forcefully demanded that others be loyal to him.

But rumors spread everywhere, and many people later made up stories with details, even finding out the Queen Mother's adulterer, who was the deceased old Prince Rong.

The Eighth Prince didn't believe it at first and wanted to refute it, but he never expected that Prince Rong would jump out at this time to put an end to the matter.

Therefore, all of them brothers were regarded as people of illegitimate bloodline, and all the royal relatives used this matter to criticize them, and then they declared themselves kings under the banner of royal bloodline.

The world is becoming more and more chaotic, and Dajing is only in name only because of them.

The Eighth Prince almost hated them to death, but he hated the murderer behind the scenes even more.

"What do you mean, Eighth Prince? Do you doubt my master? Haha, but aren't you the one with impure bloodline?" Zhao Zhen knew how to say it to touch people's hearts, and his light words almost broke the Eighth Prince's defense.

The Eighth Prince said angrily: "All this is a conspiracy by Prince Rong and his son."

Zhao Zhen smiled even more brightly, as if the Eighth Prince's reaction pleased him.

Tu Zhizhi watched the argument between the two and felt that if they continued talking, it would only make them confront each other and they would have no time to think about other things.

She wanted to stop these two people, but she also wanted to know what was happening in the outside world.

Pursing her lips, Tu Zhizhi said, "Prince Rong would expose your identities because he wants to make himself legitimate. After all, the old Prince Rong is a prince of a different surname, but he is a member of the royal family adopted by the old Prince Rong from the royal family, and his bloodline is very close to that of the late emperor."

"If he wins the world, those who recognize legitimacy will naturally choose him. No matter how powerful you and the other princes are, you will be constrained by him in the beginning."

"Miss, what you said makes sense, and this is also what my master is worried about." Zhao Zhen appropriately revealed Tu Yuanzhou's concerns to the Eighth Prince, and then deliberately turned the conversation to Cui Yang and Xie.

"Your Highness, the reason why Cuiyang Xie clan did not serve as officials in the court is because they were loyal to the previous dynasty. Now that a new dynasty is about to be established, they naturally want to make achievements and establish their own careers."

"Looking at all the people who declared themselves kings, I soon discovered that their combined strength was no match for Cui Yang Xie."

"For this reason, I thought of forming an alliance with Cuiyang Xie Clan, using their background to develop myself, and thus suppress their development. However, I didn't expect that Cuiyang Xie Clan took a fancy to the Ninth Prince, and not only rejected me, but also spoke shamelessly."

"I was so angry that I argued with them immediately, hoping to make them realize their shortcomings. I never thought that they told me a secret."

"This secret is related to the Crown Prince, and also involves some of the old emperor's schemes. Your Highness, the Crown Prince's biological mother is not the Queen, but the daughter of Crown Prince Mingde. Therefore, the Crown Prince and Tu Yuanzhou and his sister are equally qualified to fight for the world."

The reason Zhao Zhen was sent out this time, besides to find the Eighth Prince, was to find out what the aristocratic families were thinking.

Cuiyang Xie was the first aristocratic family he came into contact with, but he did not expect that this family was so arrogant. Not only did they look down on Tu Yuanzhou, they also revealed the secret of the prince's biological mother.

Zhao Zhen never expected that the emperor would actually take action against the daughter of Prince Mingde in order to secure his throne, and the prince was born to the daughter of Prince Mingde.

He knew that the prince had been rescued, and he immediately worried that the prince would jump out to fight for the world, making the situation even more chaotic.

So he came up with a cruel idea, which was to use the Eighth Prince to get rid of Cui Yang and Xie. In this way, there would be no one to prove to the Crown Prince that even if he wanted to compete for the world, he would fall behind Tu Yuanzhou.

Just at this time, his people brought news that the Sixth Prince had sent a batch of opium to the Eighth Prince.

"How is the Crown Prince related to Crown Prince Mingde? This is impossible." The Eighth Prince could not accept this. His face was filled with disbelief and resentment, only because he thought of the Queen's attitude towards the Crown Prince.

He had previously thought that the queen only loved the emperor and didn't even care about her son, but he didn't expect that the prince was not her son.

"Cui Yang and Xie have made such a solemn promise that we have no choice but to believe it." Zhao Zhen deliberately emphasized his tone to provoke the Eighth Prince.

"The Crown Prince and I were born on the same day, and my mother has been fighting with the Queen for so many years. How could she not have discovered this?" The Eighth Prince protested vigorously.

Upon hearing this, Tu Zhizhi immediately said, "It was the Emperor who helped the Empress. No, to be more precise, it was the Emperor and his wife who jointly planned this matter. The reason your mother didn't know about it was because they needed the Crown Prince to be legitimate so that the Emperor could sit firmly on the throne."

The Eighth Prince felt heartbroken when he heard this: "Why is the Crown Prince so lucky?"

The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth rose, then he suppressed them, and said calmly: "Your father must have known that there was something wrong with his identity a long time ago, which is why he made the prince the legitimate son of him and the queen."

"Because of the existence of the crown prince, he always remembers his identity, so his attitude towards the crown prince is very bad. I'm afraid that you brothers are targeting the crown prince, I'm afraid it has long been in his calculations."

"In other words, you brothers are all pawns of the emperor and can be abandoned by him at any time. Even if he hates the prince, his position is secure and there will be no problems."

When the Eighth Prince heard this, he thought of the Fourth Prince being a puppet emperor, and immediately retorted: "If Father planned this, why would he choose the Fourth Prince as the new emperor?"
