Chapter 256 Little Overlord



"Your Highness, if that's the case, then the Prince of Jin is a man of great cunning. He must have anticipated the demotion of Qingzhou long ago, sending his people to stockpile grain and even fabricating a deity to win the people's favor."

"I never thought that Prince Jin still had this trick up his sleeve. It's obvious that he wants to seize the throne!"

"Your Highness, why don't we take advantage of the situation and spread this matter to the capital? The Prince of Jin's intentions will surely arouse the suspicion of His Majesty." Eunuch Liu's expression was gloomy.

"We can also punish the King of Jin for deceiving the emperor!"

"I will send a message to the capital right away." Prince Qing extended his hand to Eunuch Liu, who immediately stood up, helped Prince Qing up, and walked towards the table.

This time he wanted to see what other methods the King of Jin could use to resist.

"All of you come in." After writing the letter, Prince Qing shouted to the outside.

Six figures flashed in from the doorway and knelt before Prince Qing.

"Be sure to send this letter to Bianjing."

"Eunuch Liu, go outside and ask someone to invite Prince Xiao over." Prince Qing said to Eunuch Liu.

"Your Highness, this hospital is guarded and I can't get out." Eunuch Liu said with a bitter face.

Prince Qing pointed at one of the secret guards on the ground and said, "You go."

"Your Highness, I have been watching them fight in the army. Prince Xiao left the barracks not long ago and seems to have gone to Prince Jin's Mansion. If we call Prince Xiao here at this time, it may arouse Prince Jin's suspicion." The secret guard said.

"Then call Xiao Shunan." Prince Qing waved his hand.

After the secret guard left, Eunuch Liu continued, "Your Highness, I heard from the spy that Prince Xiao and Prince Jin are getting along well and haven't fought each other. Instead, they are very..."

"You don't have to say more, I can guess it... I think the reason why Xiao Qinbei can still get along peacefully with Prince Jin is all because of that little genius doctor." Prince Qing took a sip of the tea beside him.

"Prince Jin has a young genius doctor on his hands. Will he use this child to threaten Your Highness, or even do something bad to you?" Eunuch Liu said anxiously.

"Xiao Qinbei and Prince Xiao aren't easily threatened. I think Prince Jin's actions will only incur more resentment from those in Prince Xiao's mansion, which will be more advantageous for us. When the time comes, we will capture the child and hand him over to Prince Xiao. Tell me, should he ally with me, or bear a grudge against Prince Jin?"

Eunuch Liu smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is a good plan. They owe you such a great favor, so they will naturally support you to ascend the throne."

"But, Your Majesty, there is one thing I am not clear about. Isn't the Xiao Palace under the control of the Crown Prince and Prince Xiao? Even military affairs are not under the control of Master Xiao yet. What is your intention in calling Master Xiao here again?"

Prince Qing put down the jade cup and asked, "Who is Xiao Shunan? The little tyrant of Bianjing City."

"Given Xiao Shunan's personality, Xiao Qinbei will definitely not let Xiao Shunan know about the grudges between Prince Jin and Prince Xiao's mansion, otherwise he will definitely not let it go."

"The title of Little Overlord is not groundless. He inherited the spear skills from Prince Xiao's mansion and received the true teachings of Prince Xiao. At a young age, he has already achieved great martial arts skills. In terms of martial arts, he is the leader of the younger generation in Bianjing.

"If he knew the truth, he might turn Qingzhou upside down. Even if he didn't, that brat wouldn't let my royal brother have an easy time."

The more strained the relationship between Prince Jin and Prince Xiao's Mansion becomes, the more they can benefit from it.

In just a cup of tea, the secret guards outside brought Xiao Shunan in.

"Xiao Shunan greets His Highness." Xiao Shunan frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied.

Prince Qing is sick, and there are so many problems!

The hospital is full of people infected with the plague. What if he gets infected?

The person sent by Prince Qing is really something. He didn't even go out the main gate, but instead brought him over the wall. He is not an orthodox son, and he is not up to par. He does things in such a sneaky way, and is so stingy.

"I wonder what your highness wants me to do?"

Prince Qing stood up and asked Eunuch Liu to help him sit on the edge of the bed.

Xiao Shunan looked at him impatiently: "If Your Highness wants to ask about Qingzhou, Jingzhou, or military affairs, you can ask my father. I don't care about these things."

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." He was too lazy to wait any longer. Compared with Prince Jin, he was more relaxed towards Prince Qing.

"Don't you want to know why your father hates my royal brother so much?" Prince Qing leaned on the edge of the bed, looked at Xiao Shunan, covered his mouth and coughed lightly.

Xiao Shunan paused and frowned, "If my father wants me to know, he will tell me."

He didn't like Prince Qing, as he looked like a man with evil intentions.

"That's because he's afraid you'll be impulsive and reckless after he tells you. He knows you lost your mother when you were young and grew up with your younger sister Mu'er. If you knew the truth, you would definitely come looking for my brother."

As Prince Qing spoke, he observed the expression on Xiao Shunan's face. Seeing that his face was gloomy and hesitant, he took the opportunity to say, "You have no evidence. Father will only punish you."

"What does Your Highness want to say? Just say it directly. Why do you need to hide things?" Xiao Shunan said angrily.

"Do you know where your aunt was found after she disappeared for many years?"

Before Prince Qing could finish his words, Xiao Shunan's chest was rumbling like a drum, and he already had an idea in his mind based on what Prince Qing had just said.

"My royal brother's mansion." Prince Qing's words went straight to Xiao Shunan's heart.

"Your Highness, there may be some misunderstandings here. My aunt's presence in Prince Jin's residence doesn't necessarily mean that Prince Jin did it." Xiao Shunan retorted.

"I know you have doubts in your heart. You won't believe it easily without evidence. Although I don't have physical evidence, I do have witnesses."

"Then Your Highness, please show Shun'an the evidence." Xiao Shun'an raised his eyes and looked at Prince Qing. How could he make a conclusion so easily when it came to his aunt?

Although he is reckless, he is not stupid. Prince Qing suddenly summoned him today, and no one knows what he is planning.
