Prince Heng could understand his father's thoughts. Sitting in that position, he naturally had to be wary of everyone. Like his brothers, if he became emperor, they would never admit defeat and would definitely try every possible means to fight for that position.

Ning Yuanbo's uncle is not very capable, but now he asks Ning Yuanbo to do some things and he has actually kept it secret from his royal brothers.

Cousin Ye is quite capable, but because he was in the palace, under the eyes of everyone, the royal brothers had previously signaled their men to take action and framed Cousin Ye.

He had already planned to have his cousin Ye make achievements so that he could be promoted quickly.

Now this plan is in trouble again.

He could hide it from his brothers, but not from his father. He found that his father was happy to see the brothers fighting. He suspected that his father just wanted them to fight, and the one who won in the end would be the heir that his father was satisfied with.

He also knew that his father was in his prime and didn't want to give up that position. Most of his ancestors died in their forties or fifties.

He also didn't want to wait until he was thirty or forty to become emperor.

Moreover, the older the father gets, the more his younger brothers will be loved by him. If they encounter a concubine with powerful means again, perhaps all of them will become his concubines.

So he had to let the royal brothers fight each other. The matter between General Li and the Yang family was also fierce. Father had sent people to investigate for a month or two. Although General Li could not be dealt with immediately, the Yang family would definitely help.

There are also the Zhao family and the Wu family. They will not let Concubine Li and General Li continue to be proud.

Otherwise, the more military power General Li holds, the more people they will win over. If anything happens to the emperor, the situation will be unfavorable for them.

As Concubine Liu listened to Prince Heng's words, she thought of someone.

"My Lord, if you come to the palace, please visit my mother more often. Every time I come to the palace, I will bring her some things from outside the palace and spend more time talking to her..."

She believed that time would tell people's true colors. Since Empress Zheng had no prince, she would definitely choose one from the other princes to support. The princes born to other concubines were now fully grown, and these people would never treat Empress Zheng well, nor would they allow Empress Zheng to be superior to their mother.

When Prince Heng heard what Concubine Liu said, he nodded.

"I'll be sorry for all the hard work in the future."

Liu Ruyan snuggled gently in Prince Heng's arms.

"My Lord, as long as you can fulfill your wish, I can do anything..."

After dinner, Gu Zhao and Qin Chen took a carriage to return to Qin Hou Mansion.

As soon as I went downstairs, I met Prince Heng's concubine Liu.

"Zhao's cousin, the son of Marquis Qin."

Prince Heng spoke.

"Meet the prince and concubine."

Hearing Gu Zhao calling him Prince, Prince Heng said with a smile.

"Cousin, you have been personally recognized by my father and grandmother. You don't have to be so distant from me, your cousin."

Hearing what he said, Gu Zhao laughed.

"Although the Emperor's uncle and grandmother said so, it is better to be respectful when you are outside."

Hearing Gu Zhao's words, Concubine Liu laughed.

"Cousin Zhao, I wonder when you will be free. I have some business matters I would like to consult you on, and I would also like to cooperate with you."
