Sooodwill to the Prince of Yong When all was said and done, the Prince of Yong’s priets were the crown prince’s trusted subordinates
Frowning slightly, Lu Jingzhong stated, “Your I you is within expectations At present, in their eyes, it is an unprecedented, a opportunity The E did not seize this opportunity, then he wouldn’t be the Prince of Yong However, this subject worries that Your Ihness was previously able to suppress the Prince of Yong because of the Emperor If the Ehness, then Your Ihness’s position as heir apparent is in dire jeopardy”
“That’s right It is very likely that the E voice However, both Li An and Lu Jingzhong frowned
The door to the room was pushed open and tomen, as beautiful as fairies, entered In front was Li Hanyou Behind her was Xiao Lan
Enraged, Li An questioned, “Our study is now a location without security Where are the Iuards?”
“There is no need for Your Ihness to worry,” replied Li Hanyou with a smile “They dared not obstruct us because they saw Senior Apprentice Sister Lan”
Li An becaorous security when Zhang Jinxiong was the supervisor of his household’s ie into his study? As a result, he inquired, “Jingjiang You should release Supervisor Zhang Why have you had hi?”
Li Hanyou’s heart skipped a beat She quickly answered, “Your Ihness, Xia Jinyi cannot be absolved of bla is Xia Jinyi’s Senior Apprentice Brother My master worries that he is involved For stability’s sake, he can only be temporarily placed under house arrest After some time has passed, if he has no proble her words, Li An grew even unhappier Although in order to pass off responsibility he had pushed all of the blame onto Xia Jinyi, he had only done so because Xia Jinyi was already dead Zhang Jinxiong was different Not only did Zhang Jinxiong strictly adhere to his duties, Li An fundamentally did not believe that Xia Jinyi had any ulterior motives As a result, Li An’s favor was also transferred to Zhang Jinxiong Just as he was about to speak, Lu Jingzhong gently nudged him Li An iuing over this trivial er and ask, “How do you know that Ied hisdown, she explained, “Although we do not have any evidence, we have already found sohness, your pardon this ti inally intended to personally meet with His Ihness’s behalf However, before she could do so, Your Ihness was pardoned”
Li An was overjoyed With this, he no longer needed to owe a favor to the Fengyi Sect However, Lu Jingzhong’s brows furrowed and he observed, “This is highly unusual for the Ehness’s crirave Even if His Ihness, it would only be after some time has passed and his temper has cooled Further, it would require a petition subhly values Only then would the Eenuine and sincere At present, we have yet to move and still the Ehness If that is the case, then it is a problem This is my carelessness Would the Princess please explain?”
Li Hanyou srimly “From the palace, I have received information that before the Emperor made his decision, he discussed this le”
“How is that possible?” exclaile has never involved herself with politics!”
“That was our thought as well,” responded Li Hanyou, heaving a sigh “As a result, although ish to force her to be married, it is only to put so’s household Who could have expected that she would strike us so heavily at this critical juncture? Although we do not have any intelligence as to what she said to the Emperor, from the present situation, we can conclude that the Ehness What he lacks is a reason Furtherhness was the heir apparent forthe E, none of our people had the opportunity to get close It is likely that the E as if a bucket of ice-cold water had been dumped on him, Li An felt chilled his bones He had never been so terrified in his life He knew clearly how and why he had attained his current position Without the emperor’s protection, how could he co Concubine Chun Upset with hiure out how he had been so insane as to infuriate I at the callous s beca to seize this opportunity to black understood that the current predicament needed to be overcome first, and thus stated, “There is no need for Your Ih the Eun to waver, he has yet to hness still has the opportunity to redeeood ter were to becoretful individual would be sohness”
Li An was a bit confused by Lu Jingzhong’s words However, Li Hanyou i’s words If the crown prince were to lose his position as heir apparent, then the dayi Sect would be severe It was best if they did not seize this opportunity to blacked, she knew that this was the irrefutable reality At present, the Fengyi Sect and the crown prince were in the sahtly and expressed, “Your Iht now is to ascend to the throne as early as possible”
Frightened, Li An sprang to his feet Gazing upward, he saw the calm eyes of all three At first, Li An wished to forcefully reject their proposal However, after thinking it over, with his position as heir apparent currently in jeopardy, he could not utter a single word of refutation
Exchanging glances, Li Hanyou and Xiao Lan rose to their feet and stated, “Although Your Ihness has scrupulously abided by the laws of filial piety, vile characters have deceived the E is permitted to ascend to the throne, then he will likely be a bellicose andwill never be at peace If Your Ihness is able to make this resolution, ill definitely support Your Ihness in the ascension to the throne The Emperor is already old It is better that he retires to rest What does Your Ihness think?”
In a weak and feeble voice, Li An said, “But our present strength is too weak Sixth brother has gone to the northern frontier It is difficult for us to control the Imperial Guard What’s to be done?”
“The Sect Master has already e as Your Iyi Sect will take risks and act Your Ihness, do not worry We will definitely be cautious and careful, and succeed in one go”
He, Li An finally asked, “What plan do you have?”
Proud of herself, Li Hanyou shness, do not worry We already came up with an appropriate plan We will only need a few hness will be able to ascend to the throne However, Your Ihness e If the Ehness, I’m afraid that we can only slowly pull back”
“This Prince will be prudent,” affirmed Li An, his face scarlet “However, you must be careful It is best to wait for the return of the Prince of Qi before acting”
Shness, do not worry We have been preparing for this exigency for a long tihness, the Prince of Qi, will return in the tenth month When that time coht noe ehness also wants to co’s faction?”
At thisspoke up in an indifferent tone, “For the Fengyi Sect to place such high ireat aspirations, one has to wonder what demands it has?”
“It is Junior Mentor Lu who understands reason,” responded Li Hanyou, continuing to sh After Your Ihness ascends to the throne and enfeoffs Senior Apprentice Sister Lan as the Eyi Sect will be sure to wholeheartedly serve Your Ihness”
A look of reluctance on his face, Li An asked, “Lady Cui has never lacked in virtue and has given birth to my heir How can I dehness, before, you have always refused to demote Lady Cui because of the Eer supports you, if you are unwilling to agree to this condition, what reason is there for us to take such risks that would har that you appoint Senior Apprentice Sister Lan as your E you to deh for her to beco the heartless smile on the corners of Li Hanyou’s ree to this demand, then it would be impossible for Lady Cui and his heir to survive How could he steel hi Li An hesitate, Li Hanyou did not continue to force hihness, please think carefully This ent You can discuss this with Junior Mentor Lu”
Finished speaking, she rose to her feet and bade her farewell, “Your servant still has business to attend to Your Ihness, please think this over carefully Afteryour decision, you can infor Li Hanyou and Xiao Lan leave, Li An was so infuriated that he threw a teacup onto the ground Enraged, he shouted, “Junior Mentor, tell me, do they even treat ree to this demand of theirs, I would become their puppet”
