The best ring

"hateful!"

"Crack!"

Zhao Lun, the third prince of Yanfeng Kingdom, knocked a vase on the table to the ground with a casual sweep. The fragments of the vase scattered all over the floor.

Yuan Ding, who was standing next to Zhao Lun, lowered his head slightly, looked at his nose and heart, and remained silent.

Yuan Ding understood why Zhao Lun was angry, and also understood Zhao Lun's mood at the moment.

Just now, just now, Zhao Lun went out to drink tea and listen to music. As a result, he was ambushed halfway. The assassin was hiding in the crowd. The crossbow bolt fired by one of them missed Zhao Lun. If he had moved a little further away, Zhao Lun would have been shot through the throat by the crossbow arrow.

Zhao Lun, who was still in shock, returned to the mansion under the protection of the guards, but he was still injured on the way back. Although the injury was not serious, it was enough to make Zhao Lun angry.

Xiaoqu didn't hear it, but he almost lost his life. How could Zhao Lun not be angry?

More importantly, this was the third ambush that Zhao Lun had encountered in the past two days. Although there was a near miss every time, no one would be happy if he was constantly being assassinated.

"Have you found out?" Zhao Lun asked with a gloomy face: "Who is assassinating me?"

Yuan Ding shook his head and said: "Back to Your Highness, just like the previous two times, the assassins all fled the scene after the operation failed. We were not able to catch anyone alive, and we did not find any useful clues through questioning the people around us. ”

"Trash! They are all trash!" Hearing Yuan Ding's words, Zhao Lun became even more angry: "Do you have to wait until I am killed by them before you can catch those assassins?"

Yuan Ding lowered his head and remained silent again.

It's not that Yuan Ding didn't try his best to catch those assassins, but those assassins were quite cunning and familiar with the surrounding environment. Moreover, after one attack, they were very determined to retreat and were not willing to fight at all. This gave Yuan Ding a headache. But there is nothing to do.

After venting for a while, Zhao Lun calmed down a little. He asked with a cold face: "Where is Wen Huan? Why didn't these two people see him come to see me?"

Zhao Lun had complicated feelings about Wen Huan.

On the one hand, he knew that Wen Huan was from the Shuiyue Kingdom, and he disdained to interact with him. He also knew that the other person was probably not completely sincere in helping him.

But on the other hand, Zhao Lun knew that if he wanted to win the position of prince, he needed the other party's help, and he was reluctant to abandon the other party.

"Not sure." Yuan Ding shook his head and said, "Wen Huan is very mysterious. We still don't know where he settled in this city. We have to wait until he comes to us every time before we can see him."

"You won't send someone to follow him secretly?" Zhao Lun asked.

"Sent." Yuan Ding said, "But Wen Huan's anti-tracking awareness is very strong. All the people I sent were easily thrown away by him."

Zhao Lun frowned and said, "What on earth is this Wen Huan doing? He asked me to cooperate with him, and I did so. However, he failed to give me a satisfactory answer."

In Zhao Lun's heart, he was somewhat dissatisfied with Wen Huan.

Wen Huan had promised in front of him that as long as he stepped in, he would be able to take down the other princes. However, until now, the other princes were still alive and well, and Wen Huan had obviously not been able to fulfill his promise.

"Your Highness, Wen Huan may not be reliable. If we want to compete for the position of prince, we have to find a way ourselves." Yuan Ding said.

Zhao Lun looked at Yuan Ding and said, "I remember that you were very optimistic about cooperation with Wen Huan before. Why, have you changed your mind now?"

Yuan Ding had an embarrassed expression on his face and said, "My subordinates have misjudged the person. That Wen Huan is so disappointing. We can't place all our hopes on him."

"Then what should we do?" Zhao Lun asked: "Nowadays, my father has been recuperating and not showing up. The boss is responsible for everything inside and outside the palace. If I don't rely on Wen Huan, how can I turn the tables?"

Zhao Lun felt somewhat desperate.

Originally, he thought things would turn around by relying on Wen Huan, but now it seems that this is not the case. Wen Huan suddenly disappeared and was not reliable at all. In the end, this matter was just like a sweet dream to him. .

"Your Highness..." Yuan Ding hesitated.

"Just say what you want, don't hesitate." Zhao Lun said impatiently.

Yuan Ding looked at Zhao Lun and said hesitantly: "Your Highness, I think we can use special means when necessary."

"Special means?" Zhao Lun looked at Yuan Ding doubtfully.

Yuan Ding continued: "For example, let your Majesty issue an imperial edict and make you the prince."

Zhao Lun glared at Yuan Ding fiercely and said, "Are you making fun of me? You don't know what my father's attitude is towards me now? Besides, my father is still recuperating and sees no one. Who should I ask to stand up?" Am I the prince?"

Now that the words have been spoken, Yuan Ding simply did not hide them. He continued: "It won't work under normal circumstances, so what I said is a special method."

"What can I do?"

"Steal the jade seal!" Yuan Ding whispered?

"What?!" When Zhao Lun heard Yuan Ding's words, he stood up in fright, his face full of shock: "Steal...steal the jade seal?!"

Even though Zhao Lun was usually very courageous, now he was shocked from ear to ear when he heard what Yuan Ding said.

Stealing a jade seal is a capital crime!

If the matter is exposed, even if he has the status of a prince, he will not be able to escape death. After all, stealing the imperial seal is equivalent to treason, which is by no means a trivial matter. Although Zhao Lun has always coveted the position of the prince, he has never thought that he would steal the imperial seal. It is too dangerous and too bold, beyond his imagination.

Yuan Ding nodded calmly. Obviously, this matter was not a sudden whim, but he had considered it for a long time.

"Do you know what will happen to me if this matter is exposed?" Zhao Lun scolded Yuan Ding, "Are you trying to kill me? Huh?"

"Of course, I don't want to harm your highness. I am doing this for your highness's sake." Yuan Ding said.

"For my sake? You came up with such a bad idea for my sake?" Zhao Lun said.

"If possible, I don't want you to take risks, but the current situation is not favorable to us." Yuan Ding said: "Your Highness, think about it, who is behind you these two days?"

"Didn't the murderer get caught? How do I know?" Zhao Lun said.

"Although the murderer has not been caught, we can guess." Yuan Ding said.

"Guess? How to guess?" Zhao Lun said: "What do you think?"

"Your Highness, tell me, if something happens to you, who will benefit?" Yuan Ding continued to ask.

Zhao Lun thought for a while and said: "Of course it's my brothers and sisters."
