Chapter 162 You're Too Difficult to Serve
Nie Changping gradually understood what he meant and his eyes began to light up.
"In this way, the eldest prince will not dare to act rashly again, and the threat he poses to you will be greatly reduced."
Luo Qinghan didn't say anything.
In fact, he never took Luo Yechen seriously, let alone threaten him.
He deliberately kept Luo Yechen in order to balance the relationship among the princes.
There are a large number of princes, and the relationships between them vary in quality.
For example, the eldest prince Luo Yechen, although he is a stubborn person, he is rich and generous, and several younger princes like him very much.
Then there is the second prince, Luo Yunxuan. This man is deep-minded, tactful and sophisticated, gentle and polite to others, and very popular among the princes.
If Luo Yechen is eliminated, Luo Yunxuan will be the only one in power.
With Luo Yunxuan's style, he would definitely bring together all the princes to deal with the crown prince.
That would be the most unfavorable situation for Luo Qinghan.
This is what is called a trade-off.
Luo Qinghan learned all these methods from his father.
The emperor appointed him as the crown prince, so logically he should have taken him very seriously. However, he was assassinated twice in succession, and the emperor had no intention of getting to the bottom of the matter. Each time, he just comforted him verbally.
In the past, Luo Qinghan was unwilling to think deeply about the reasons, but later on, he came to understand it naturally.
The emperor knew very well in his heart that the person who murdered the crown prince was most likely one or several of the many princes.
He deliberately did not investigate further. On the one hand, he did not want to cause a scandal of fratricide among brothers, and on the other hand, he wanted to maintain a balance between the crown prince and the princes.
And what my father just said.
He seemed to be praising the prince, but in fact he was reminding the prince not to be too proud. He, the father, was still alive, and the prince was just a prince after all.
Luo Qinghan thought that according to his father's routine, his father would assign tasks to other princes next.
The crown prince cannot be the only one in the court; other princes must also be involved.
Only in this way can the Crown Prince not develop too quickly and the balance between the Crown Prince and the princes be maintained.
The more Luo Qinghan thought about it, the colder his heart became.
This is the mind of an emperor, he even plots against his own son.
The two of them walked to the East Palace unknowingly.
They saw Luo Yechen and Xiao Xixi waiting at the gate of Minguang Palace.
There was a long distance between the two people and they ignored each other. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the two people did not make an appointment to meet here, but just met here by chance.
Xiao Xixi and Baoqin knelt down and saluted.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Luo Qinghan asked calmly: "Why are you here?"
Xiao Xixi said shyly, "I made Your Highness angry last night. I feel uneasy, so I specially sent some snacks over. I hope Your Highness can calm down and not take it too seriously."
If it were in the past, Luo Qinghan might have believed her lies.
But after spending some time together, he knew too well Xiao Liangdi's lazy nature.
Oh, what are you talking about, feeling uneasy?
If she was really uneasy, she should have chased him out immediately when she saw him leave in anger last night.
Luo Qinghan remembered that he had deliberately slowed down his pace after leaving Qingge Palace last night, waiting for Xiao Liangdi to catch up and coax him. However, he waited for a long time but no one came out, and he became even more annoyed.
He said coldly, "I don't like sweets."
Xiao Xixi said hurriedly: "There are also snacks that are not very sweet."
"I don't like anything that's not sweet either."
Xiao Xixi made a bitter face: "You are too difficult to serve."
