Prince Jin raised his head and looked at the twilight sky. There was no trace of starlight at all, only a crescent moon hanging above him. He suddenly felt depressed and frustrated, as if an invisible hand was pressing down on his chest.
”Prince Jin hasn't slept at such a late hour, are you admiring the moon?” Prince Chen carried a cup of wine to him with a smile.
”Tonight's moonlight is not good, and there's nothing much to reward,” the Prince Jin faintly sighed, ”I just feel that there's something in my heart that I can't rest at ease about.”
”Ah,” Prince Chen patted his shoulder, ”Nephew need not worry too much, tomorrow is our big day, no matter what happens, I will have to let it go.”
The Prince Jin squeezed out a smile to reassure him. ”Once the mother is gone, my nephew will be able to rely on my royal uncle.”
”Of course,” Prince Chen's eyes flashed with a bright light, ”Your mother passed away in the palace for no reason, Royal Uncle will definitely investigate everything for you.”
The Prince Jin laughed sinisterly, ”Actually, I also know this very clearly in my heart. Other than the Queen, that wicked woman, is there anyone else?
”The empress is vicious indeed, luckily she gave birth to a useless crown prince,” the Prince Chen said with a smile. ”The empress killed my Yun Niang and also killed your mother, so I will definitely not let her off easy.”
”Royal Uncle,” the Prince Jin's eyes were dim, ”Are you still thinking about the Mrs. Heyi?”
”Naturally,” the Prince Chen smiled with his head lowered, a glint of light flashing across his eyes. ”Ever since the emperor snatched her away from me, I couldn't rest in peace for even a moment. I wanted to beat my way into the palace and bring her back to my side.”
”There is a way to be a hero and a beauty,” Prince Jin's lips raised into a bitter smile, ”Wasn't it because of Yu Zhu that I participated in seizing the throne?”
”The Crown Prince is like a father and son to the Emperor when it comes to seizing the love by force.”
”Actually, the crown prince is not worthy of your concern,” Prince Jin's eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness, ”That Prince Duan is the one that is worth worrying about the most.”
”Prince Duan is …” The Prince Chen muttered, ”He is the child of the Yun Niang.”
”But he isn't your and Mrs. Heyi's child,” Prince Jin hurriedly said. ”He is the Emperor's prince.”
The Prince Chen thoughtfully nodded his head, ”I know, but does he look like the Yun Niang?”
”It's not like that, he's more like the Emperor,” the Prince Jin said resolutely. ”The Royal Brother just said that tomorrow would be our big day, why is he thinking about the other things?”
”Yes, yes, yes,” The Prince Chen said with a smile, ”Has Prince Jin thought of how to become a good emperor?”
Prince Jin was startled and hesitated: ”Isn't it uncle Huang who is sitting on the Dragon Throne?”
”Royal Uncle is already old,” the Prince Chen chuckled. ”But the Prince Jin is still young.”
”Your nephew doesn't dare,” Prince Jin hurriedly bowed. ”General Lin is my royal uncle's man, your nephew only relies on your uncle for this day. Your nephew only wants to avenge Yu Zhu and the mother, and does not dare to go overboard.”
”You are quite sensible,” the Prince Chen laughed with satisfaction. ”Why do you think the emperor doesn't like you?
The Prince Jin clenched his teeth, ”The Emperor isn't praising me, I can only rely on uncle Huang. In the end, the Empress Chen looked similar to the Mrs. Heyi, and gave the crown prince a good birth.”
The Prince Chen smiled and shook his head, ”Your majesty is truly a shallow person. Your majesty is only similar to your majesty's, but your majesty is actually bewitched by her for a moment.”
”That's why,” the Prince Jin laughed, ”It's still uncle Huang who has a deep affection for the Mrs. Heyi.”
”I can live for the sake of the Yun Niang without marrying for the rest of my life, but Your Majesty is from the Three Palaces and Six Academies. I really don't know why she wants to follow the Emperor.”
”The Emperor is a sovereign of the country, who would dare disobey him?” Prince Jin laughed bitterly, ”Whether it is the crown prince or the emperor, why can't the ones with great authority receive them?”
”However, the person who holds the power of the dynasty will soon become you and me.” Prince Chen looked at him steadily.
Prince Jin looked at him worriedly. ”Royal Uncle, I always feel that tomorrow's matter is very suspenseful.”
”There's no need for you to worry,” the Prince Chen consoled, ”Your Royal Father is probably still sleeping soundly, and didn't notice these things at all. You probably haven't told anyone else about your General Lin, right?”
Prince Jin's heart tightened as he hurriedly tried to prove the truth, ”This matter is of utmost importance. I have definitely never told anyone else about it.”
Someone came from outside the door. ”My prince, General Lin has something to ask you to come over.”
”I understand,” the Prince Chen replied, ”Then I'll be going over first. You should rest early. Make sure to rest well.”
”Yes, Imperial Uncle.”
The Lv Ying of Xinyang Hall had already stopped falling into the flower, and the extended branches were filled with layers upon layers of flowers.
Xue Ronghua helped Chu Zongge put on his armor and sighed lightly, ”In the previous world, I have fought many battles, repelled the Northern Dipper, encircled and annihilated Chiron, and even led troops to ambush the Great Qi.
”It's just a battle,” Chu Zongge consoled, ”Sword lights and sword shadows, smoke filling the air, which battlefield is not like this.”
Xue Ronghua's eyes dimmed, ”You … If you are to go to Prince Chen Palace this time, he and Prince Jin will not wait there for you to surround them. ”
”Don't worry, I can guess that the Prince Jin and the Prince Chen aren't that stupid,” Chu Zongge said as he caressed her black hair lovingly. ”I have set up an ambush outside the palace at many places, I won't let these two traitors escape.”
Xue Ronghua was a little worried again, ”When you were at Chiron, did you go to the battlefield?”
