Chapter 876 The Prince Has No Advantage
Lin Jing seemed to be asking whether the emperor had the courage, but in fact he wanted to know the determination of Ye Xuan and Chen Changli.
Ye Xuan understood the deep meaning of his words and said without hesitation: "If His Majesty did not have that courage, he would not have been able to sit on the throne for so many years."
Chen Changli expressed his approval of Ye Xuan's words, and said meaningfully: "Our Majesty is very power-hungry. Not to mention the prince, even if the person beside him wants to get involved in power, he will cut off her hands and feet without hesitation."
"The Queen is a smart person. How could she not understand what Your Majesty meant? It is because she understands it so well that she can always go along with Your Majesty and not let Your Majesty get angry with her."
"She understood His Majesty's intentions, which is why she was able to do such a treasonous thing right under His Majesty's nose. When His Majesty found out, she was able to follow His Majesty's thoughts and say that what she did was for His Majesty's good."
"Your Majesty's mind is treacherous and changeable, and the Queen is like a worm in his stomach. How could he not believe what the Queen said?"
Chen Changli said this with a cold expression, his tone unconsciously getting heavier, but the tone that came out of his mouth contained a sense of sadness.
"The Queen understands His Majesty, and His Majesty also hopes that the Queen can help him solve his problems. So even if His Majesty is slow to realize what Princess An Qing is doing now, he will turn a blind eye to it."
"If we are not careful, we may offend His Majesty and make him completely disgusted with us."
Speaking of the word disgust, Chen Changli couldn't help but think of the emperor's attitude towards the prince, which was also a kind of disgust.
It was just that because the Queen was standing in their way, neither he nor the Crown Prince realized this. They just thought that the Emperor was afraid of such a young and strong son as the Crown Prince, and was unwilling to transfer the power to him.
Thinking about the past again now, Chen Changli understood more and more how much the emperor valued power. In the eyes of the emperor, the crown prince and other princes were chess pieces that would be abandoned from beginning to end, and none of the brothers had any advantage over the other.
The Sixth Prince and the Ninth Prince fled Luoyang City and recruited soldiers and horses outside, living a prosperous life. This was because they had noticed the emperor's thoughts and realized that his existence restricted them.
Although they are only fighting a small battle now, if Tu Yuanzhou leads He He to attack Dajing, they can use their advantages to establish themselves as kings and no longer have to be bound by the shackles of the emperor.
Perhaps this is what they both thought, which is why they repeatedly rejected the people sent by the emperor.
When Chen Changli thought of this, he instantly realized that the Sixth Prince and the Ninth Prince had an advantage that even the Crown Prince could not match, and his mood became heavy.
However, the prince was sent to the western border, where he would face the aggressive Tu Yuanzhou head-on. Therefore, the prince not only had no advantage, but would also fall into a very bad situation because of the traitor Tu Yuanzhou.
If the emperor did anything to the prince during this period, it would be completely accurate.
The emperor would not have this idea. Tu Yuanzhou is aiming at Dajing and is determined to become the master of the world. No matter who the emperor has under his command, he cannot compare to the prince.
If he lost his mind and attacked the prince, wouldn't he become a king who lost his country and gave Dajing to Tu Yuanzhou for nothing?
The emperor cared so much about his status and reputation that he would never do such a ridiculous thing, but the same could not be said for the empress.
She hated the prince because of her twisted mind. If she got a chance, she would make the prince lose his life in the Western Territory.
Then Princess An Qing threw the kidnapped doctors in the royal manor and prepared to seduce the queen. Could it be that she guessed the queen's feelings for the prince and planned to use her?
However, Xu Qinglu spoke with certainty and reached a cooperation with Princess An Qing. Is it possible that Princess An Qing kept her in the dark?
When Chen Changli thought of this, he couldn't help but feel that Princess An Qing might have guessed the conversation between Xu Qinglu and him a long time ago. However, since Xu Qinglu had that idea, she must have guessed what Princess An Qing was thinking.
She was not panicked at all and cooperated with Princess An Qing. Maybe she really had something on Princess An Qing that could make herself invincible.
All kinds of inexplicable thoughts were turning in his mind, and Chen Changli soon thought of the entanglement between Xu Qinglu and Princess An Qing.
He suspected that the poisonous insect discovered by Ye Xuan was also closely related to the two of them. After all, the deputy leader of the Bai Lian family was studying poison techniques and leading some people to refine poisonous insects during his lifetime.
"Lord Ye, I think the discovery of this Gu worm should be told to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can realize the impact of the existence of the Gu worm on the civil and military officials."
"If His Majesty had noticed this earlier, he would have sent someone to help you arrest the mastermind behind the use of poisonous insects to control people as soon as possible."
"During this period, if the Queen is ready to make a move, I can follow the clues and investigate the many arrangements made by Princess An Qing in Dajing."
Chen Changli decided to test Xu Qinglu and ask her about Princess An Qing. However, Ye Xuan had to keep in touch with the emperor at all times so that if they made any discoveries, the emperor's reaction could be captured immediately.
Ye Xuan heard this in his usual gentle tone: "I know what to do, you don't have to worry about me."
After he said that, he took a look at the sky outside and found that it was almost noon. Thinking of the emperor's vigilance and abandonment of himself and Lin Jing, he suggested that Chen Changli accompany him to the palace to meet the emperor and dispel some of the emperor's speculations.
Chen Changli readily agreed, and the three of them changed into official uniforms and went to the palace to meet the emperor.
The three of them cooperated well and spoke appropriately, and soon dispelled the emperor's individual suspicions.
But even though the emperor's suspicion of them had diminished, the power-hungry emperor deliberately handed some trivial matters to them and asked them to deal with them as soon as possible.
Ye Xuan and Chen Changli were already familiar with the emperor's temperament and readily agreed. Lin Jing always felt a little uncomfortable, so he flattered the emperor with a wooden face.
When the time was almost up, he bid farewell to the emperor and left the palace.
Chen Changli and Ye Xuan noticed his mood change and spent some time comforting him before going home.
The General's Mansion was as warm and peaceful as ever. After Chen Changli came back, he felt that this warmth and tranquility would not last long and would be destroyed by the ever-changing situation in Luoyang City.
"What were you busy with last night? Why do you look so sad when you come back?" When Wan Shufang heard that Chen Changli had returned, she immediately came to find him, but she didn't expect to see him looking so sad.
Wan Shufang felt a little sorry for Chen Changli and could not help but sit next to him, looking at him with concern and asking about his troubles, hoping that she could help him share his worries and solve his problems.
Seeing her concern, Chen Changli knew what she meant. He smiled and told her what Ye Xuan was going to do, and mentioned his own thoughts: "Ye Xuan is planning to leave a way out for himself, so he wants to help the prince."
Wan Shufang heard this and said softly, "This Lord Ye doesn't have much in mind for Your Majesty, so it's no wonder that he deliberately allowed you and the Crown Prince to get rid of the Deputy Leader. I think he has a scale in his heart and has more principles than Your Majesty."
