Chapter 788 Their Big Event
Concubine Le has always disliked Princess Jun.
Therefore, Concubine Le would be very happy if there was anything that could cause trouble for Princess Jun or frustrate her.
If Zhao Ming can't even handle such a small thing, what else can he accomplish?
"Lord Geng, I didn't know before, but I just thought it would be bad to go too far with Princess Jun—"
"Zhao Ming, you are so stupid, how can you find a backer for Prince Yi?" Lord Geng glanced at him sarcastically.
In fact, Zhao Ming was a man with no ambitions, and he was the one who found Zhao Ming first.
Because Prince Yi is already sixteen years old, if he wants to have some support in the palace, have a good marriage, find a wife with some power, and live in the capital for a long time, he has to make some efforts, right?
In the past, Prince Yi was still young, so he was just an unknown person. But now that he has grown up and the emperor is also this age, will there be a fight for that position above?
When you start vying for that position, as long as he is a prince, who cares whether you were transparent before? Are you really transparent or just hiding your strength?
You will always be pulled into this vortex.
So, don’t you have to find someone to hold on to now?
"Let me tell you, Concubine Le is the most favored one right now, and she herself has no children, so it would be good for her to take care of Prince Yi a little more. As Prince Yi's uncle, you should consider him more."
King Geng moved closer to Zhao Ming and felt that what he said to him was from the bottom of his heart.
As expected, Zhao Ming's heart skipped a beat and his expression changed a little.
"Prince Yi actually just wants to live a peaceful and quiet life. He doesn't have any ideas--" he said.
Lord Geng's eyes flickered.
He didn't agree with it. Were the Zhao family members too naive?
As a prince, how could Prince Yi live a peaceful life?
In this circle of power, no one can stay out of trouble behind closed doors.
"To live a peaceful life, you need to have the ability. Do you think it is so easy to live a peaceful life?"
The emperor was still young before and didn’t want to appoint a crown prince. The princes were also still young, so it was not time for fighting. Just let it be peaceful.
But now it is almost time, and Zhao State has been plagued by disasters in the past year. Reports of disasters sent to the palace from various provinces are like snowflakes, and the sensitive ministers are already feeling a little uneasy.
These days, some people have even been secretly discussing whether the country's fortune has weakened. Usually, this time would be the time for the imperial power to change.
Even if things appear calm on the surface, those who are successful have already started making preparations in secret. Who can really live a peaceful life?
Zhao Ming was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Master Geng, you know that I am a brainless person. I really didn't think much about it this time. This is the only way. I will take my leave first."
He knew that his brain wasn't working fast enough, so he would ask Xiao Zhiyi first if he had any questions. If he stayed now, he would only make more mistakes, so he better leave quickly.
Lord Geng looked at his back, his expression darkening.
A dark and thin old man walked out from behind the screen. When Lord Geng saw him, he stood up and gave his seat to the old man.
"Altar Master Pang, do we really want to win over Zhao Ming? He doesn't look like he can do anything."
Master Pang sat on his throne, his posture more like the master of this place than he was.
His face also looked a little gloomy.
"Prince Jun wiped out many of our people. Recently, Fu Jinchen has been digging around like a wolf. I don't know where he got the means, but he actually knew the secret codes and marks of our branch temple. He cooperated with Prince Jun and dug out several of our points."
His breathing was a little heavy, and it was obvious that he was suppressing his anger.
"On the surface, he seems to be ill and has been locked up in Prince Jun's mansion, but his men and the Dragon Shadow Guards are running around the capital day and night! In just these few days, six of the hidden chess pieces we have planted for many years have been dug out!"
Speaking of this, Pang Tanzhu slapped the armrest.
He was really pissed off.
The Shenyi Sect has been forbearing all these years, just waiting for the right opportunity to stir up trouble in the capital of Zhao State. They also want to gather nine royal family members with true dragon blood and bring them to the altar for a grand sacrifice.
That was a big event they had been planning for many years!
But ever since Fu Zhaoning inexplicably married Xiao Lanyuan, things have been going badly for them. Never!
In the past, Xiao Lanyuan clearly believed that it was Fu Lin who poisoned him, and he had always focused on finding Fu Lin. Moreover, he was frail and sickly and had been poisoned, so he had been living in seclusion in Youqing Peak. Apart from looking for Fu Lin, he had no extra energy to do anything else.
Finally Fu Zhaoning cured him!
As soon as Xiao Lanyuan recovered, he believed Fu Zhaoning again and began to dig deep into the truth of the poisoning!
By digging like this, they dug out many of the chess pieces they had arranged, and they were keeping a close eye on them, so the Shenyi Sect didn't dare to carry out many things.
Their people also had to hide well and hold off on any action.
It takes too much time!
The auspicious day that they had calculated with great difficulty was about to arrive, but their preparations were not yet complete!
How is this possible!
So they have to speed up, recruit more people, and win over more people. If they don’t have enough manpower, how will they rule the world?
If the world is not in chaos, how could they possibly capture so many true dragon bloodlines?
"But Zhao Ming's ability is indeed average. And what about Prince Yi? Lord Pang, do you really want to win over Prince Yi? What use is he?" Lord Geng didn't understand.
Xiao Zhiyi is just a nobody.
