"You?" Xiao Yan's expression was condensed.
Prince Hatred said: "I know that I am hated by my father, and I have received such a ridiculed title, but it is precisely because of this that I can help you."
"Now everyone knows that I was angered by my father for exposing the scandal between the Queen and Prince Cheng. They know that I have never helped the royal family cover up the scandal. At least in the eyes of the people and courtiers, my father and I are not on the same side. You If you rashly reveal the past, you may not be able to do anything to your father, but what if I speak up?"
Xiao Yan's expression moved slightly, but then turned dark: "Do you know what I want to reveal?"
"I don't know, but it's nothing more than the collusion between my father and the Lu family and some shameful things they did when they seized power."
Prince Hate said calmly: "Since Governor Xiao is determined to use this to shake my father's throne, force him to destroy the entire Lu family, and even apologize for his crimes, it will be very difficult. Once I open my mouth and expose it, my father will not tolerate me."
Xiao Yan: "Then you still want to help me?"
"I'm helping myself."
Prince Hate had a bitter look on his face, but he didn't hide his thoughts from Xiao Yanshi. He just looked up at him and said:
"I have been abandoned by the Sacred Heart now. One word of hatred has ruined all my future. My father is even more interested in killing me. Even if I keep my peace, I will probably die sooner or later."
"When I was fighting for power with the fourth child, I suppressed other princes and princes, and also had grudges with many courtiers. No matter who comes to power in the future, I'm afraid they won't be able to tolerate me."
"Instead of lingering for a while, why not fight to the death."
Prince Hatred's face became more determined.
"President Xiao just said that your previous plan was to promote me to the throne. When my father's reputation was damaged and the royal family was shaken, you would use me as the crown prince to stabilize the court."
"Although I am hated by my father, if what I do is to benefit the people and the truth I reveal can make the people praise and approve, then what does it matter if my father doesn't like it? The disgust of a notorious emperor , it doesn’t exactly show that I am upright and don’t fall in line with them.”
"Even if I get such a title, I can still be the crown prince and the new emperor. There is no one in the entire royal family who is more suitable than me."
"Director Xiao, I can help you."
Xiao Yan never expected that Prince Hatred would say these words. He frowned a little, and there was hesitation in his eyes. When he lowered his eyes and looked at Prince Hatred, who was pointed at by the tip of the sword, he seemed to be weighing him. The truth in the words.
After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "I don't believe you."
The tip of the sword is cold, Xiao Yan is indifferent:
"You are greedy and arrogant, and have too much desire. You have been swinging between the noble family and the governor before, and you are secretly guarding against the governor in every possible way and even plotting against me."
"If I want to use you, I must tell you what happens next. But if you turn around and tell His Majesty to please the Sacred Heart, I am afraid that my life will be lost in your hands. Rather than taking such a risk, it is better to …”
His eyes were cold, obviously he would rather keep silent.
Prince Hatred quickly said: "I won't tell my father. He hates me so much that even if I please him, it won't be able to alleviate the sin of humiliating him. He will not pass the throne to his disgusted son." , but my cooperation with you is different."
"I can gain a good reputation by stepping on the royal family, and you will push me to the top. If you ask for anything from me, you will never abandon me."
Seeing that Xiao Yan was unmoved, he continued:
"If you don't believe me, you can send someone to follow me. I know that the owl guards in your hands are extremely powerful. It is impossible for me to avoid them and send messages to the palace. Moreover, I can leave you a handwritten letter in advance, promising you that if I get the upper hand, I will grant you the title. For the king allows you to take the throne."
"I can write down everything I plan today. If I cross the river and burn the bridge, you can ruin my reputation with this thing alone."
Xiao Yan stared at him intently.
Prince Hatred said sincerely: "President Xiao, I really want to help you, not only because you never gave up the kindness of saving my life that day, but also for myself."
"Believe me, I will never abandon you."
It was extremely quiet in the study, and Prince Hate felt uneasy after he finished speaking.
He knew that what he had done before would make it difficult to win Xiao Yan's trust again, and he was afraid that he would not want to help him again, but he sincerely wanted to cooperate with Xiao Yan, and he also knew that this was the only way he could go now.
Even though his heart was beating wildly, Prince Hatred tried his best not to look directly into Xiao Yan's eyes to express his sincerity.
After a long time, the soft sword that fell on his neck was removed. Xiao Yan flicked his wrist, and the sword instantly disappeared from his waist like cicada wings.
"I will trust you again."
Prince Hatred suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, with cold sweat covering his back.
…
Xiao Yan stayed in the study with Prince Hatred for a long time, detailing the next arrangements with him. In order to reassure Prince Hatred, he also revealed the secrets of Emperor An and his grudges with the Lu family and the royal family.
When he came out of the study, Prince Hatred, who was standing in front of the door behind him, looked at the back of Xiao Yan as he left, looking a little dazed.
"Your Majesty!"
Miao Chun hurried over and passed by Xiao Yan's master and servant.
Seeing Prince Xin standing in front of the study room, he quickly approached and said urgently: "My lord, are you okay? Did Governor Xiao hurt you?"
Prince Hate shook his head: "No."
"Then why do you look so ugly?" Miao Chun was confused.
Prince Hate pursed his lips tightly, how could it not look ugly? When Xiao Yan spoke just now, he was almost frightened to death.
He never expected that Xiao Yan was actually the orphan of the He family back then, a bloodline of the first family that was wiped out by the late emperor following the ruthless prince.
He hid his identity, changed his name, and entered the palace, where he lay dormant for many years and plotted in order to overturn the He family's Zhaoxue case.
Thinking of what Xiao Yan told him just now, and of the murders committed by the Lu family and Emperor An in the Southland, once things broke out, the Lu family would undoubtedly die, and Emperor An's throne would also be unstable. The Xie family has only one way to apologize and give up the imperial power.
He must find a puppet and push him to the bright side to temporarily give up power to stabilize the world.
No wonder Xiao Yan was so sure of pushing him to the top...
"Your Majesty?" Miao Chun was filled with worry when he saw the ever-changing face of his own prince.
Prince Hatred suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask Xiao Yan something. He quickly turned around and said, "How did Governor Xiao and the others get here?"
"The carriage we are riding in is just outside the house."
Prince Hatred didn't think much about it. Using Xiao Yan's methods to find an excuse to come over openly was not a troublesome matter.
He raised his feet and hurriedly chased outside, but Xiao Yan and the others walked too fast. When they arrived in front of the mansion, they could barely catch up with Xiao Yan, who had just gotten on the carriage and wanted to lower the curtain.
"Xiao..."
Prince Hatred stopped shouting and looked at the girl holding Xiao Yan's hand in shock, her eyes full of affection.
Next to her, Xiao Yan, who was tall and always cold, had warm and soft eyes. He seemed to have put his hand on her waist. The two of them looked intimate, and even through the night, they could see the charm and something wrong.
Prince Hate was stunned on the spot, choking on his shouts.
Xiao Yan and Song Tangning? !
them……
Isn't Xiao Yan a eunuch? ! !
Prince Hate's pupils trembled fiercely.
