"You're a useless piece of trash who dares to do something but doesn't take responsibility!"
Then, the emperor kicked him again, saying, "That's your brother, your own brother! You said you would help him! Have you forgotten all those words?"
This son is neither good at academics nor at martial arts, but he has an insatiable ambition.
It's one thing to lack ability, but now they've gone and started praying to gods and Buddhas.
"Father, your son."
"My lord, you should know that I'm not asking you a question. From now on, you shall be imprisoned." After saying this, the emperor closed his eyes. He was, after all, his son, and he still felt a pang of reluctance.
Prince An: "!!!"
"Father, how could you do this!" Prince An protested, getting up to protest. "Father, what is the difference between me and the Crown Prince? If a mere child like him can be the Crown Prince, why can't we, his older brothers, be?"
Is it simply because he is the late Empress's biological son?
Yes, the Queen has passed away.
The emperor and empress had a very good relationship. After the empress passed away, the emperor immediately named Mo Jin as the crown prince, which made many people feel confused. The emperor did this for the sake of the empress.
“I gave you a chance. You asked me back then, and I would have given you an answer. Now… I can tell you, I will not let someone as ruthless as you, who can even be cruel to his own brother, become emperor.”
Upon hearing this, Prince An's eyes reddened, and he suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahaha, this is too ridiculous, too ridiculous!"
"Father, you're being ridiculous! What if I really wanted to be emperor?"
Prince An looked in a certain direction and shouted, "Linzhi, what are you waiting for? Make your move!"
Just then, Linzhi appeared.
Lin Zhi smiled and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, I am the wife of Prince An."
"I disagree. You are a woman from the Hundred Flowers Pavilion and are not allowed to enter the royal family."
Linzhi Fairy's face darkened. "What's wrong with Baihualou? Baihualou is a place that earns its own money. Emperor, you are truly incompetent and foolish. In that case, you should give your position to Prince An."
The two of them have come today to force the emperor to abdicate; Fairy Linzhi can't wait any longer, and neither can Prince An.
He knew very well that once the news of the Crown Prince's incident spread, others would be eager to make their move. He had to become the Crown Prince before that happened, only then could he be legitimate.
"What if I disagree?"
The emperor looked around; it seemed that everyone else was unable to move.
Lin Zhi burst into laughter, a particularly arrogant laugh. "Then don't blame us for being ruthless. You are the father of Prince An, we won't kill you, but we can still render you immobile and speechless."
"We can control you, but Prince An is kind-hearted and wants you to abdicate voluntarily. You can become the Retired Emperor and travel the world enjoying yourself. Wouldn't that be better?"
Lin Zhi originally wanted to wait, as she didn't yet have her own power, but the situation no longer allowed it. If the Goddess Mo Yan caught up with them, they would be in trouble, so they had to finish the battle quickly before that happened.
They thought that as long as they could control the emperor and make Prince An the emperor, Mo Yan would be unable to do anything to them, because the Heavenly Court and the mortal world do not interfere with each other.
Even gods cannot arbitrarily interfere in human affairs. Let alone an emperor.
Therefore, we must act before they find out, and the system is helping us keep it a secret.
The reason why the Queen Mother did not discover that the girl was not her own was also due to the system.
The system's purpose was simple: to disrupt the Three Realms of this small world, so that the Heavenly Dao could eventually be abolished.
Before that, of course, a so-called "divine embryo" must be created.
It has to be said that the system is very clever. It knows that it cannot find a host that is too smart. Only a silly and stupid host can listen to it and trust it.
"Boss, are you planning to usurp the throne? Or are you planning to kill your brother and father?"
Prince An slowly stood up, looking extremely arrogant.
He noticed that everyone around him was immobilized, while only they could move. What did this mean? It meant that he was now in charge. Of course, he could be arrogant instead of subservient.
"Father, I don't intend to do anything to you, I just want you to be obedient."
You used to say you loved us sons very much, but you cruelly shattered our hopes.
I just don't understand why you would choose such a young brat as the crown prince.
What can he do? Is he as good as me?
Lin Zhi frowned, somewhat displeased. "Alright, stop talking about this. You're wasting time. No matter why, you are not the Crown Prince."
The emperor quickly issued an edict appointing him as emperor.
The emperor drew his sword and looked coldly at Prince An. "What good is it if you become emperor? You still have to listen to this woman."
"You still have to obey this woman's every word. Are you the emperor? You're nothing but a puppet."
Prince An: "..."
Prince An looked at Lin Zhi beside him and said, "Shut up, this is a matter between me and my father."
Linzhi was also furious. What did this man mean?
