Wen Tingyun frowned. "The prince has made concessions time and time again, but that person is still not satisfied. No matter what the prince does, he will never be satisfied. As long as the prince is alive, he will not stop his conquest of the prince."
This time, they've even directly dispatched troops to Xiangzhou. It seems they won't rest until the prince is killed. Since that's the case, the prince shouldn't be concerned about the relationship between uncle and nephew anymore. I believe that with the prince's noble character and outstanding abilities, he has no need to be subservient to anyone. It's time to take his place.”
Upon hearing this, Wen Tingyun's expression changed, but this time, he remained silent and said nothing more.
The study became even quieter.
At this moment, Xiao Yan suddenly broke the silence, "Tingyun's words make sense, I think it should be so. Hengzhi, this country should have been yours."
Gu Linchao's expression finally changed. "Xiao Yan, don't spout nonsense."
Xiao Yan said nonchalantly, "Your name is the best proof, the late emperor's expectations of you, and his last will and testament." After saying that, he suddenly knelt down on one knee, "As long as you have the will, your uncle is willing to risk his life to bring that ingrate down for you."

Gu Linchao's expression turned grim. "You all get up first."
Wen Tingyun shook his head and finally spoke out what he had been holding in for so long.
“We know that Your Highness is kind-hearted and has never thought of taking your place. Even if the court sends troops to Xiangzhou, you only want to drive them back, but you want to live in seclusion, which they will not allow.”
Gu Heng sees you as a thorn in his side, and he will surely send troops to attack you continuously.
Too many wars will lead to widespread death and destruction, which is not good for the people.
Moreover, Gu Heng is utterly unfit to be a ruler. In order to deal with the prince, he even released the notorious criminal Jue Wang.
Such a narrow-minded and selfish person is no blessing to the people and will inevitably cause trouble sooner or later. By then, it will be too late.
Therefore, I implore Your Highness, for the sake of the great cause, the empire, and the well-being of the people, to raise an army and punish this treacherous emperor!
