C157 (1/2)
The news the guard brought back made Second Prince's heart race. After the guard left, he couldn't calm down for a long time, even though he suppressed the urge to do something.
But on this deserted night, he also revealed his ambition. I must ascend to the throne for my own sake, for the sake of my children, for the sake of my subordinates.
”Pa ~ ~ ~”
With a light sound, the good Purple Bamboo Gold Crown Brush in Second Prince's hands broke into two pieces. He himself didn't care about it at all, as a prince, he didn't care about a mere few thousand gold coins.
At this moment, all he could think about was how to make better use of the resources in his hands and further enhance his own strength.
Just as the guards and Lu Chen had disappeared for a few days, the situation in the capital had undergone a huge change. The position of the Second Prince was in imminent danger, and even the Emperor was beginning to lean towards this direction.
Logically, as an emperor, he should be the most afraid of people peeping on his throne. However, for some reason, this year's emperor was suddenly very optimistic about the First Prince.
With the emperor's support, the situation in the Second Prince was very bad, there were even people who had started to change their names.
Under these circumstances, the Second Prince would bestow upon the unreliable Imperial Authority! The more he thought about it, the more he thought about it. He was betting on the most difficult and boldest gamble of his life.
If he won, he would become the emperor that was the focus of everyone's attention. He would become the ruler of this country. If he lost, he would completely fall into the dust. At this time, there was no other choice.
Second Prince didn't have a choice either. All he could do was gamble everything on this one throw, moving forward bravely and running wildly on this narrow and seemingly impossible path.
Sure... He had to succeed!
As he sighed, the Second Prince unconsciously spoke out the words in his heart. These words were extremely clear and profound in the quiet room.
That night, the candle flame in Second Prince's study was never extinguished.
And it was also on this night that the news of Lu Chen's return spread, the spies in the General Lu Palace had already spread the news out.
No one would have thought that Su Qiang would receive the news that Lu Chen was still alive this very night. He had returned.
”Bang ~ ~ ~”
A loud noise was heard, followed by the sound of porcelain shattering. At this moment, inside Su Qiang's General Mansion, the room was a complete mess.
All the things that could be smashed and thrown away were smashed to pieces. From time to time, the room would be filled with the crisp sound of falling rain. However, it caused one's heart to be agitated to the point of shivering.
This was especially true for the woman in the room. She was just like Su Qiang, who was at a critical juncture. In the end, a Attendant said something and Su Qiang immediately became angry.
The woman with the pained expression thought to herself, I'm so damned unlucky, the young master went crazy and I caught up with him. I originally thought that it was all other sisters talking nonsense, but now …
The woman was sobbing as she hid in a corner beside the bed. Her body trembled from time to time and her entire body shivered. Her eyes were filled with fear.
However, at this time when no one was paying attention to him, Su Qiang was so angry that he was about to go crazy.
He had the heart to kill, but recently, because Su Weiran had been in closed door cultivation and did not come out, Su Qiang had restrained himself. He had even let his guard down because of the news of Lu Chen's death.
