The second prince also received the news. He sat down with his advisors and talked about it, a warm smile on his face.
He was different from Feng Changgui. Feng Changgui was a war god who had traversed mountains and seas of corpses, while he sat in the capital and revised many memorials and documents for the emperor.
No man is without ambition. The Emperor's stated intention is to favor Feng Changgui, but the Second Prince, having held the position for so many years, is unwilling to relinquish it.
"Brother, you've got some good skills. You're getting better and better at winning people's hearts." The Second Prince laughed. "But I really can't tell what value my Third Brother has right now."
"Your Highness," the advisor beside him straightened up and said, "You are mistaken. The First Prince doesn't need to do anything at all; this one thing is enough. No matter what the Third Prince does in the future, in other people's eyes he is already a member of the First Prince's lineage. The First Prince has only moved his lips, and he has already gained enough fame."
The Second Prince was taken aback at first, but after realizing what he meant, he smiled and said, "As expected of my elder brother, what a brilliant plan to kill two birds with one stone."
They thought they knew Feng Changgui completely, but they only knew the tip of the iceberg. This time, they really overthought things.
After spending a night at Chaolu Palace, Lu Qingyan, considered part of the "First Prince's faction," went to the Imperial Study. The Fifth Prince still glared at Lu Qingyan with his fiery eyes: "Third Prince, don't think I won't touch you just because you have your elder brother as your backer!"
Lu Qingyan raised her eyelids and said, "Since the Fifth Prince has such a narrow mind, he should just stay in his own palace from now on."
Such a person will not amount to much, but the Fifth Prince has an older brother named Feng Changgui, so he will not suffer any hardships in the future.
"Quiet!" The Confucian scholar giving the lecture was somewhat shocked to see Lu Qingyan appear before him once again.
Although I had heard some rumors, it wasn't enough to count until I saw the person in person. Sure enough, with the First Prince's request, the Third Prince arrived immediately. Alas, what a mess!
The third prince is very talented, but unfortunately he is not favored. Otherwise, these old bones would not be able to resist supporting him to ascend to the throne.
Lu Qingyan (in horror): No, I just want to be a quiet "handsome man".
The teachers hadn't seen Lu Qingyan for a long time, and after this meeting, they actually assigned her a lot of tasks, claiming it was to make up for all the ones she had owed before.
Lu Qingyan resignedly picked up all the books and began to read them aloud.
Lu Qingyan was absolutely certain that this childish prank was definitely the Fifth Prince's idea. He wasn't a book lover and saw it as a form of punishment. Besides, since it was his teacher who carried it out, he had nowhere to complain.
The Fifth Prince did not have a good relationship with these teachers, and it is unknown what method he used to get them to help him.
Since returning home, Feng Changgui has handed over the power in his hands to the Emperor, and now he has more free time every day.
So he took this opportunity to reconnect with some friends he hadn't seen for many years. After all, most of the people he associated with were sons of officials and members of the imperial family. Originally, it was just ordinary interaction, but in the eyes of the Second Prince, it was blatant factionalism.
He mentioned the matter to the Emperor in a veiled manner, but the Emperor waved his hand dismissively, not caring at all.
