Chapter 160 Qian Renxue's Wrongdoings (Part 5)

Upon hearing Miguel's words, Qian Renxue's heart sank. After Miguel's analysis, Qian Renxue realized that she was completely isolated and helpless. Apart from the spies she had planted in the Heavenly Dou Empire, no one was truly sincere towards her!

"So what do you think I should do?"

"What you need to do now is to do what a Crown Prince should do. At the same time, you need to find out who is on your side, who is a fence-sitter, and who is an enemy. After all, only by knowing these three things can you better formulate a response strategy and adapt to changing circumstances!"

Miguel's explanation was somewhat perfunctory, but it was true: if she wanted to successfully ascend to the throne, she did need to understand the power dynamics of these three parties.

After Miguel finished speaking, he paused slightly before continuing, "Every emperor is inherently suspicious. Therefore, before they truly intend to abdicate, they will openly and secretly maintain the stability of various factions within the court. So, if you want to break the stability personally established by Emperor Xueye, Emperor Xueye himself needs to change his mind. Otherwise, your forces alone cannot influence the overall situation. Besides completing the tasks Emperor Xueye has given you, you also need to actively care for Emperor Xueye. Only when Emperor Xueye's heart leans towards you can you influence the overall situation in the court. Otherwise, no matter how much trouble you cause Prince Xuexing and Xue Beng, Emperor Xueye will simply downplay it and let it go."

After hearing Miguel's words, Qian Renxue fell into deep thought. Although Miguel did not give any specific examples, his words were all reasonable. After all, it was not the first or second time that he had people impeach Prince Xuexing. Prince Xuexing had committed a capital crime, but in the end, it was all dropped because of Emperor Xueye.

"Besides these problems, what other problems do I need to solve?" Qian Renxue asked after thinking it over.

"The most fatal flaw in your portrayal of Xue Qinghe is that Xue Qinghe is already sixteen years old, but he doesn't even have a concubine. Not to mention concubines, he doesn't even have a rumored love interest. So many people are wondering if Xue Qinghe doesn't like women and prefers men. After all, even if you, Miss Qian Renxue, portray him as a man, the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe still has a bit of a feminine quality."

I think this idea isn't just shared by the residents of Tiandou City; Emperor Xueye probably thinks so too. After all, his eldest son is so grown up, yet he hasn't even had a single scandal, and the servants in the Crown Prince's residence are almost entirely male. Emperor Xueye can't help but be suspicious. You see, his good-for-nothing youngest son is already out having affairs at a young age, while his second son hasn't made a peep at all. Anyone would be anxious!

Hearing Miguel's complaint, Qian Renxue's lips twitched involuntarily. She never imagined that her lack of scandals would become a flaw. Qian Renxue didn't really grasp the significance of this, and wasn't sure if Miguel was exaggerating. So, she turned her gaze to her personal guards, the two titled Douluo, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo. Serpent Spear and Porcupine Douluo noticed Qian Renxue's gaze, but they didn't know what to say. After all, they were very clear that their young master was a woman, and if she were to marry a crown princess or even a concubine, it would indeed be difficult to manage!

When Qian Renxue saw the evasive looks in the eyes of the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo, she realized that she did indeed have this problem. However, being a woman, she was unable to deal with the wife she had married and the concubines she had brought in!

"Miguel, I think you should have had a corresponding solution when you raised this question!"

"I do have a solution, but it needs to be put on hold for a while, since I haven't yet decided on the candidates for the Crown Princess and the concubines."
