The best ring

Yanyang City, Imperial Palace.

Snap!

A porcelain bottle was thrown to the ground and fell into pieces instantly.

"What did you say? Is this true?!" Zhao Xuan, the eldest prince of the Yanfeng Kingdom, glared at his subordinates, the anger on his face almost escaping.

Zhao Xuan's anger was not directed at the subordinate in front of him, but at the news brought by this subordinate:

The old emperor wants to make the third prince Zhao Lun the crown prince!

When he heard the news, Zhao Xuan was like a thunderbolt. He was shocked and stunned, and his reaction was full of anger.

"Back to the eldest prince, my subordinates don't know whether this news is true, but now the news has spread, not only inside the palace, but also everywhere outside the palace." The subordinate replied.

"Damn it! How could this happen? Father really wants to have a third child? How is this possible?!" Zhao Xuan still found it difficult to accept this matter.

Although the position of the prince has been unresolved, Zhao Xuan has long regarded it as his own. He is the eldest prince. According to the order of succession, he is the one most qualified to be crowned prince, and he He believed that his ability was no worse than that of other princes, so if the old emperor established a prince, it should definitely be him.

However, now there is indeed news that the old emperor is going to establish a prince, but the person who is appointed as the prince is actually not him, but the third prince Zhao Lun!

This was difficult for Zhao Xuan to accept.

How could he, Zhao Lun, be so virtuous that he could actually snatch the crown prince's position from his own hands?

No matter which way you look at it, this shouldn't have happened.

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and then a middle-aged man walked in. Zhao Xuan asked the subordinate who had come to deliver the news to leave, looked at the person and said, "Gu Lin, you came just in time, I was about to Looking for you."

The visitor's name was Gu Lin, an aide in Zhao Xuan's mansion, and the most trusted aide by Zhao Xuan.

"Is the eldest prince going to talk about the third prince?" Gu Lin asked.

"Yes." Zhao Xuan nodded: "Have you heard about this too?"

"This matter has spread in Yanyang City. Not only I know about it, but basically everyone in the city knows about it," Gu Lin said.

"Tell me, is this true? Or is it a lie deliberately spread by the third child?" Zhao Xuan asked.

"This news should not have come from the third prince." Gu Lin said: "After learning the news, I went to investigate and found that the people of the third prince were also shocked by the news. They were also shocked. Looking for more information."

Gu Lin's words made Zhao Xuan's face even more ugly.

Since this news didn't come from the third prince, it naturally came from the palace. And who in the palace would spread such news, it doesn't take much to think about it.

"Could it be that my father really wants to make the third son the crown prince? Why should he? Why would my father do this?" Zhao Xuan roared.

Over the years, he has always been unwilling to be the prince. As the only prince living in the palace, Zhao Xuan felt that no one else was qualified to sit in the prince's position except himself. Over the years, the old emperor had never been able to take the throne. He also had complaints in his heart about making him the prince, but he did not say it out loud, but was waiting quietly for the old emperor to confer him the title.

As the old emperor's health became worse and worse, Zhao Xuan felt that he was getting closer and closer to the position of prince. However, what he did not expect was that the old emperor was indeed going to establish a prince, but it would not be him, but the third prince. This was hard for him to accept.

"First Prince, please don't worry. This matter is just a rumor at the moment, and we are not sure whether it is true or not." Gu Lin quickly comforted him: "We ourselves cannot mess up the situation."

"Why is it so difficult to tell the truth? If the news didn't come from Lao San, it must have come from this palace. In this palace, only my father would say such a thing. I I really didn’t expect that in the eyes of my father, I am not as good as the third child. What ability does the third child have? Why should I refuse to accept him?”

Zhao Xuan roared angrily. At this moment, he lost his usual demeanor. You know, that was not only the position of prince, but also the throne!

The old emperor's health is getting worse and worse. Being appointed as the prince at this time is probably to prepare for inheriting the throne. Seeing that the throne is about to fall into the hands of the third prince Zhao Lun, even if Zhao Xuan has the city government again, It was difficult to conceal the anger and disappointment in my heart.

That was the position he had coveted for many years, and he couldn't accept it just falling into the hands of others.

Gu Linze was still comforting the eldest prince and said: "First prince, as long as His Majesty has not issued an imperial edict, we still have a chance. You must know that we are not the only ones eyeing the position of the prince."

"You mean, unite with other princes?" Zhao Xuan asked: "But aren't they also my potential opponents?"

"That was just a potential opponent, and now the third prince has become our official opponent." Gu Lin said: "On the matter of the third prince, we have the same idea as the other princes, except for the third prince. Besides, no other prince would like to see the third prince ascending to the throne of prince."

Zhao Xuan nodded, there was no doubt about it. He knew very well that not only him, but other princes also coveted the position of prince. On the matter of the third prince, they did have a basis for cooperation.

As for what will happen next, that is also a matter to be considered in the future. If the matter of the third prince cannot be dealt with, there will be nothing to do next.

"What should we do?" Zhao Xuan asked.

"Grand Prince, go to His Majesty to get the news first. Don't ask directly. You can ask indirectly to confirm whether this is true." Gu Lin said: "I will contact other princes secretly and form an alliance with them. As long as the princes join forces, it is not impossible to kick the third prince from the position of crown prince that he has not yet ascended."

"Okay, let's do it!" Zhao Xuan said: "I will change clothes and go to see my father now!"

Grand Prince Zhao Xuan is the only prince who lives in the palace. This makes it more convenient for him to see the old emperor than other princes. At present, he is worried about the position of crown prince. He dare not delay any longer. He hurriedly changed clothes and then acted separately with Gu Lin.

The Grand Prince is taking action, and the other princes are also taking action.

Now, this news has spread throughout Yanyang City, and almost everyone knows it. It is no longer possible to find out where the source came from, but it is no longer important. Things have developed to this point. People simply cannot ignore this matter and dare not treat it as a rumor, especially those princes.

After learning the news, they had almost the same reaction as the eldest prince, and now, with the help of their respective staff, they are all looking for ways to solve this matter.

The entire Yanyang City has been undercurrent, and almost all the princes and court officials have felt this turbulent undercurrent.

The old emperor in the palace naturally felt the change in the atmosphere.
