"Hmph! That's nice to say, but once you've been in that position for a long time and hold so much power, will you willingly give it up? Gu Yanran! Do you think this prince is a three-year-old child?"
Gu Yanran had expected him to ask this, and smiled even more calmly: "Your Highness, I am a woman, I know my own weight. Among the civil and military officials in the court, the princes of the royal family, who would truly obey me? How can I hold my position firmly?"
Chu Lang glanced at her sideways and sneered, "You are quite self-aware."
Gu Yanran: "If you are worried, we can sign a document now. After the matter is completed, I will definitely give the throne to you as soon as possible, okay?"
Chu Lang's brows relaxed slightly.

Chu Lang stared at the handwriting above, and the doubts in his heart dissipated a little.

Chu Lang was silent.

Indeed, if this plan is carried out properly, it seems to be a more 'perfect' way to usurp the throne.
In Chu Lang's eyes, he was not worried at all that Gu Yanran would be "disobedient".
He had thousands of ways to make her 'obedient' and become a complete puppet empress.
Finally, Chu Lang was persuaded, and a plan to force the emperor to abdicate under the guise of 'abdication' was put into place, which was actually a more sinister plan.
Both sides have their own ulterior motives and believe that they will be the ultimate winner.
