The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs
Chapter 372 If He Leaves, the Throne Will Be Yours
The Eighth Prince had a bad look on his face. He stood in front of the palace road, looking at Huo Zhanting and the Ninth Prince with burning eyes, full of dissatisfaction and inquiry.
Huo Zhanting sat in a wheelchair, looking at the Eighth Prince calmly, smiling without saying a word.
However, the Ninth Prince chuckled, took a half step forward to block Huo Zhanting's left front, and said with a smile:
"Eh? What are you talking about, Eighth Brother? The War King has always been an upright, loyal and brave man who is not afraid of power. If he wants to recommend someone, he must recommend a wise minister. If Eighth Brother is angry about this, it would be a bit..."
The Ninth Prince paused, looked at the Eighth Prince with a half-smile, and continued sarcastically:
"Are you narrow-minded?"
A trace of anger suddenly appeared on the face of the Eighth Prince, and he wished he could smash the smug face of the Ninth Prince into pieces!
But the Eighth Prince still had some rationality. He took a deep breath, looked at Huo Zhanting and said:
"Did King Zhan forget that we had a very pleasant cooperation before? Why did you suddenly change the candidate?"
What the Eighth Prince was talking about at this time was naturally the evidence of the Fourth Prince's guilt that the Queen suddenly had in her hands.
The queen also told him that the evidence was given by Shen Qinglan, which meant that the Prince Zhan’s Mansion represented by Shen Qinglan had originally chosen their eighth prince, right?
But now, Prince Zhan is directly helping the Ninth Prince in the court. This move is really puzzling.
Huo Zhanting leaned lazily on the wheelchair. Although he was a head shorter than the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince, the aura he exuded was not inferior at all.
He glanced at the Eighth Prince, chuckled, and gently stroked the armrests of the wheelchair with his fingers. He said in a cold voice:
"Before you say that, Eighth Prince, why don't you think about whether you have complied with the conditions we agreed upon?"
"What? You only allow you, the Eighth Prince, to break your promise and do those shameful things in secret, but I am not allowed to turn from darkness to light?"
Huo Zhanting's words carried a hint of criticism, but the Eighth Prince was somewhat confused and did not know what Huo Zhanting meant.
However, Huo Zhanting obviously did not want to explain. He just waved at Ren Wei, and Ren Wei immediately pushed Huo Zhanting away.
The Ninth Prince listened at the side, his eyes flickered involuntarily, as if he had guessed something, he stepped forward and patted the Eighth Prince on the shoulder, smiling:
"It turned out that it was Eighth Brother who committed the evil himself? I, your younger brother, really have to thank you for your help, hahahaha..."
The Eighth Prince watched the Ninth Prince leave with a arrogant smile, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and without hesitation, ran to the Queen's palace.
He didn't know what kind of deal the Queen and Shen Qinglan had made at that time, but what happened today was definitely related to their deal that day!
The eighth prince felt that he had to get things clear.
The eighth prince broke directly into the queen's bedroom.
At this time, the queen was leaning on the couch and dozing off when she heard the maids exclaiming:
"Your Highness, Your Highness, the Queen is resting. If you have anything to say, why don't you wait and talk to her later?"
"Get out of here! You are a bunch of lowly servants. How dare you stop me! I want to find my mother!"
When the queen opened her eyes, she saw the eighth prince kicking away the maidservant who came to stop him. He was arrogant and domineering. He came to her in two steps and said loudly in dissatisfaction:
"Mother! What on earth did you do with the Zhan Palace? Are they now openly opposing us?"
The Queen frowned as she looked at the Eighth Prince in front of her, and said in a cold voice:
"How outrageous! Is this your rule?"
Seeing that the Queen was really angry, the Eighth Prince knelt down reluctantly, and after paying his respects to the Queen earnestly, he said dissatisfiedly:
"Mother, I know I was wrong, but I was too anxious! You don't know that Huo Zhanting helped Old Nine in the court today! We are just one step away from getting the military power!"
The queen was in a bad mood when she heard the indignant words of the eighth prince.
She knew that Prince Zhan's Mansion suddenly helped the Ninth Prince because they were angry that she did not keep her word and did not exclude Marquis Jing'an from the turmoil.
But this was not something she did on purpose. It was obvious that the Fourth Prince wanted to drag Marquis Jing'an into this after seeing that the matter was exposed.
She just didn't help.
But, isn’t this what Shen Qinglan wants to see?
She had checked and found that the relationship between Shen Qinglan and the Marquis of Jing'an was not that deep as that between father and daughter.
Even the Queen thought that Shen Qinglan deliberately mentioned Marquis Jing'an at that time, clearly intending to use her to get rid of Marquis Jing'an.
It was based on this speculation that the queen let it go.
But now...
However, Prince Zhan's Mansion went against them because of this incident, which made the Queen a little confused.
Could it be that Shen Qinglan really had no intention of getting rid of Marquis Jing'an at that time?
Seeing that the Queen remained silent, the Eighth Prince could not help but continue to chatter:
"Mother, what should we do now? If Lao Jiu leads the troops to complete this matter, then the position of Crown Prince will become Lao Jiu's, right?"
"If that's the case, then our business is just helping others?"
Yun Lanxin, who was standing by, saw that the queen seemed to have a headache and was pinching her eyebrows. She immediately stepped forward to massage the queen's temples, and then advised the eighth prince:
"Eighth Prince, please stop forcing the Queen. The Queen has been feeling unwell these days. You..."
"I am talking to my mother, what does a slave like you have to do with me?"
The Eighth Prince glared at Yun Lanxin, his eyes full of tyranny.
The Queen patted the back of Yun Lanxin's hand, stood up, slowly walked to the Eighth Prince, slapped him in the face, and said coldly:
"As a prince, if you want to fight for the position of crown prince, you should be more patient than others!"
"If your father heard that you rushed into my palace without caring about anything, interrogated your mother, and insulted the palace maids, do you think you would have any chance?"
Found the country with military force and govern the country with culture.
The Queen knew Emperor Jingren too well.
Emperor Jingren had been picky among the princes for many years. Although he did not say it explicitly, the Empress knew that Emperor Jingren wanted a virtuous and gentle crown prince.
So over the years, the Queen has always asked the Eighth Prince to pretend to be virtuous and gentle. But if the Eighth Prince's true face was known by Emperor Jingren now, would Emperor Jingren still like him?
The Eighth Prince seemed to have come to his senses, took a deep breath with some fear, kowtowed to the Queen and said:
"I'm sorry, mother. I lost my temper. I just..."
The Queen waved her hand, interrupting the Eighth Prince and said directly:
"Actually, anyone can go to Black Swallow Mountain. It will be more beneficial to us if we give it to Lao Jiu."
"Why?" The Eighth Prince looked at the Queen in confusion.
The queen smiled, a trace of calculation flashed in her eyes, and she said:
"What you want is the throne, not the so-called merit. Why not give this merit to Lao Jiu? Once he leaves, the throne will naturally be yours..."
The eighth prince did not understand what the queen meant and felt that his own mother was really difficult to understand.
However, the Eighth Prince also knew that the Queen must have made a plan, which was why she was so calm.
However, even though the Eighth Prince knew this, he was still somewhat dissatisfied.
He was dissatisfied with the fact that the queen always kept everything from him and did not let him know.
He is obviously the queen's only son, so what can't be told to him?
