"What should we do now?"
In the small courtyard, Faru asked, "Should we call that boy back and remind him not to conflict with the eldest prince for the time being?"
"Need not."
Confucius shook his head and said, "He is still just suspicious. If we call him back, we will let him confirm his judgment. The gain outweighs the loss."
"The future life is terrible."
Faru sighed lightly, "If Wangyu had even half of this guy's intentions, I wouldn't be so worried."
"This will further prove that God is fair to everyone."
Kong Qiu said calmly, "Although that little guy is extremely intelligent, his martial arts talent is extremely poor. On the contrary, although Wangyu is not good at scheming, his martial arts talent is rare to see in a century. The two of them can only support each other." We will continue to walk hard in the coming winter catastrophe."
At the same time, outside the hospital.
Li Ziye put his arm around Little Red Riding Hood's shoulders and asked as he walked, "Old Bai, if the eldest prince really wants to harm me, can you help me?"
Bai Wangyu was silent, and after a moment, he said, "If the eldest prince really colludes with the demon clan and harms his compatriots, Wangyu will not sit back and watch."
"terrific!"
Li Ziye extended his thumb and praised, "However, we are not sure yet whether it is him or not. Let's not scare the snake first. When I go back, I will think about a solution. The old man, the Confucian leader, must be secretive and refuse to say anything. I guess it is. Are you afraid that I will conflict with the royal family? Am I such an impulsive person?"
"yes."
Bai Wangyu nodded.
Li Ziye paused, grabbed Little Red Riding Hood's arm and said fiercely, "Believe it or not, I will strangle you to death!"
"Brother Li, don't be impulsive."
Bai Wangyu looked at the young man close at hand and said seriously, "It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years!"
"Know it."
Li Ziye rolled his eyes and said, "I went back to my home to practice my sword. Hey, why do I feel like I have so many enemies recently and I am so busy?"
After saying that, Li Ziye let go of his hand and walked towards the outside of Taixue Palace.
There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me!
We have just brought down the crown prince of Prince Xuanwu, and now there is another eldest prince.
The prince is not easy to deal with.
Even a disabled prince.
Half an hour later.
Liyuan front yard.
Hongzhu, who had been waiting, saw the young man in front of her return, stepped forward, and asked, "Did you ask anything?"
"It's the eldest prince."
Li Ziye said coldly, "The old man, the Confucian leader, refused to say it, but he let it slip during the riddle that those monsters last night came from outside the palace. After thinking about it, the eldest prince is the most suspicious."
"The eldest prince?"
Hongzhu's expression condensed and she said, "What should we do? Do you want to take action?"
"Sister Hongzhu, I'm not telling you, you are too impulsive."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that even if you don't count those monsters, there is a great eunuch in the late fourth realm beside the eldest prince, who is not easy to deal with."
"Right."
Hearing this, Hongzhu nodded and said, "The masters of Yanyu Tower are all out on missions right now. Now is really not the time to take action."
"Sister Hongzhu, do you really want to send a killer to kill the eldest prince?"
Li Ziye said helplessly, "That's not possible. This is the capital of great commerce, and there are many experts. As long as the Li family and the royal family have not completely broken up, assassination cannot be used. The risk is too high."
"How can you deal with a prince without assassination?" Hongzhu frowned.
"There's always a way."
Li Ziye said very calmly, "Think about it slowly, I will go to Mr. Feng to practice sword practice first."
Having said this, Li Ziye didn't say anything more and walked towards the west wing. The moment he turned around, thoughts flashed through his eyes.
If the eldest prince is really colluding with the monster, what is his purpose?
Taking such a big risk, there must be a big enough gain.
There is only one thing that can make the eldest prince risk the disapproval of the world and collude with the demon clan to fight for it.
The position of prince!
But that doesn't make sense either.
Li Ziye's expression was slightly condensed. The eldest prince was born with a disability. Even though his biological mother, Concubine Rong, was quite noble, the disability alone meant that it would be difficult for the eldest prince to compete for the position of prince.
After all, the royal family values face most, and it is impossible for a disabled prince to inherit the throne.
Unless, there are two possibilities.
First, the royal family has no choice but to choose the eldest prince. This possibility is slim.
It is too difficult to achieve this goal. For example, the reputation and power of the eldest prince far exceed that of the other princes, so the royal family has to compromise. Or, there is only such a prince left in Dashang, which means that all the other princes are dead. , Obviously, this assumption is not realistic. The princes of Dashang are not ordinary people. Even if the eldest prince colludes with the demon clan, he cannot do it to this extent.
That leaves only the last possibility!
Thinking of this, Li Ziye's expression condensed and his steps paused.
This last possibility, he thought, was even more nonsense.
That is, the eldest prince's leg disease is no longer an obstacle to his fight for the crown prince's position!
this.
Li Ziye was speechless.
He couldn't have damaged his brain by practicing swordsmanship.
This idea is really too crazy.
at the same time.
royal palace.
Shou'an Hall.
Mu Yuan entered the palace in a wheelchair and saluted respectfully, "Greetings to my father."
Inside the palace.
Shang Huang sat at the chess table, playing chess with himself, and said, "I heard from King Jiuyou that you have been seeking medical advice recently to treat your legs. How is it? Is it effective?"
"have."
Mu Yuan said seriously, "My son, I will definitely be able to stand up!"
"How long?" Shang Huang said calmly.
"Within a month." Mu Yuan replied.
"A month?"
Emperor Shang paused his hand, looked up at the eldest son in front of him, and said calmly, "Yuan'er, although you are my eldest son, you have no advantage over your three younger brothers, especially since you are so disabled. It has been many years, so even if you cure your leg disease, you still have little hope of competing for the crown prince position."
"My son, I know."
Mu Yuan said solemnly, "So, I came here today to ask for orders from my father. If there is a war in the north soon, I hope to lead troops north to drive away foreign enemies for my great merchant!"
"oh?"
Hearing this, Emperor Shang had a strange look on his face and said, "You want to rely on establishing military exploits to accumulate your own prestige? That's not bad. However, I have already arranged for King Zhongwu and King Xuanwu to be selected for the trip north, although the decree has not yet been issued. , but the two Martial Kings have also been notified to prepare in advance."
"Father!"
Mu Yuan clenched the armrests of the wheelchair with both hands, looked at his father in front of him with burning eyes, and said, "Prince Xuanwu has been in a coma due to poisoning and has not been able to wake up. Even if King Xuanwu goes north, he will still be worried and find it difficult to concentrate on fighting against the north. Enemies are coming, I hope my father can change his mind and let me and King Jiuyou go north instead of King Xuanwu to solve my father's problems!"
Having said this, Mu Yuan forced himself up, got out of the wheelchair with great difficulty, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed.
In front of the chess table, Emperor Shang saw this scene, and the light kept flashing in his eyes.
for a long time.
Emperor Shang withdrew his gaze, dropped the chess piece in his hand, and said calmly, "Okay, if you can stand up within a month, I will agree to your request!"
