The Eldest Prince, Prince Wen, was indeed a good candidate. He has soldiers in his hands. This time, in Xiao Tianyao’s bloodbath, he suffered the least loss, but…

Still the same sentence, no fool can live in the palace until today. The Seventh Prince wants to use the First Prince. But did he ask the First Prince about his wishes?

The Seventh Prince’s mouth was keeping his mouth closed, will the eldest prince stupidly work for him? To offend Xiao Tianyao for him?

How naive!

“Little Seven, how stupid do you think your elder brother is to bring troops into the palace to clash with your Imperial Uncle Xiao without any benefit? Break into Hanfang Palace to find uncertain evidence?” The Empress said coldly while looking at the Seventh Prince. This time there was no emotion in her eyes, not even disappointment.

The Seventh Prince was taken aback by the question, and he didn’t say anything for a long time. However, the Empress didn’t let him go, she kept looking at him, waiting for his answer.

The Seventh Prince took a deep breath and said, “Imperial Mother, if Eldest Brother wants benefits, we will give him benefits.”

“How much benefit do you think it will take for your elder brother to face your Imperial Uncle Xiao desperately? You have to understand that right now, except for Xiao Wangye, no one knows what is in Hanfang Palace, and no one knows what Xiao Wangye is doing in Hanfang Palace. We are not even sure whether Xiao Wangye deliberately set up such a trap to lure us into it. The person who will force his way in there, will likely offend Xiao Wangye, and realize that his work was in vain.” The Empress didn’t directly deny it, nor did she directly give a solution, but guided the seventh prince to think.

This was the real teaching. If the deposed Crown Prince would see this scene earlier, maybe he would have thought that he was not the Empress’s child.

The Seventh Prince didn’t answer right away but thought for a while before saying: “Eldest Brother was frightened this time, he just wants to be an entitled prince and stay away from the capital. If we can help him get a rich fief, in exchange for leading his troops in the Hanfang Palace, maybe he’ll agree to take the risk.”

The battle for the throne has never been a gentle game. Once a prince joins this battlefield, he will either die or survive. The eldest prince fought over, but he was scared off by the ferocity of the crowd right at the beginning.

Of course, the eldest prince was not all scared away, the main reason was that Xiao Tianyao moved too fast, and the princes had no time to do anything. Xiao Tianyao had already occupied half of the country, leaving them no chance to jump around.

Since there was no hope of competing for the position, then withdraw as soon as possible to preserve your strength. What the eldest prince wants to do now was not to fight for the throne, but how to get out of his whole body and return to the fief with his soldiers, but… …

Xiao Tianyao didn’t allow it!

As a man who made his fortune by relying on military power, Xiao Tianyao knows the importance of military power better than anyone else. He would never agree to let the First Prince lead troops to his fief.

But the First Prince refused to give up at this point. During this time, he has been jumping around, hoping to take another path so that he can lead his troops to leave the capital and retreat unscathed.

At this time, if the Empress’s faction promises to help him win a good fief and let him leave with troops, the First Prince would be willing to take the lead. But here comes the problem, the Empress’s faction has less power to speak in the court than the Imperial Concubine Zhou’s faction. The eldest prince will not believe that they can do it.

“Imperial Mother, we can’t do what the elder brother wants.” The Seventh Prince lowered his head with a look of discouragement.

“We can’t do it, but we’re not the only ones who don’t like the Prince Regent. What can’t be done by one person doesn’t mean that two or three people can’t do it either.” The Empress pulled her lips lightly, revealing a cold smile.

This smile sent chills down the spine, and even the Seventh Prince felt scared. He knew that whenever his mother showed such a smile, someone would be unlucky.

“The queen mother means to join forces with Imperial Concubine Zhou?” If Imperial Concubine Zhou nodded and join in to put pressure on Prince Xiao, it would not be impossible.

“You let the Third Prince be entangled, and other matters will be handled by Imperial Mother.” The Empress just wants to join forces with Imperial Concubine Zhou.

“This son understands.” The Seventh Prince swept away the gloom before, with a bright smile on his face. The Empress couldn’t help showing a smile when she saw this: “My son is good!”

One compliment won countless rewards, and the Seventh Prince’s whole body brightened up as if he could shine.

Together with the Empress, the Seventh Prince, mother, and son, worked together to find a way to deal with Xiao Tianyao’s rebellion. Imperial Concubine Zhou and the third prince Xiao Zian were arguing over this matter.

Talking about the quarrel seems to be a bit too much. Because Imperial Concubine Zhou has been scolding unilaterally all the time. Xiao Zian did not argue with Imperial Concubine Zhou at all, but after Imperial Concubine Zhou finished scolding, he added a sentence in a lukewarm way: “Mother Concubine, no matter what you say I will not agree to anything. The Zhou family cannot compete with Imperial Uncle Xiao, what you will do will only drag down grandfather and uncle.”

“Are you looking down on your grandfather? Or are you blaming me for not giving you a good family?” Imperial Concubine Zhou was angry at Xiao Tianyao. And now, she was being reprimanded by her son when she came back. So this time, she was so angry that she was irrational.

In front of Xiao Tianyao, she could bear it for a while, but in front of her son, she really couldn’t bear it.

“Mother Concubine, I have never said such a thing, I just advise you not to do things that you will regret.” Xiao Zian looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar Imperial Concubine Zhou, feeling astringent in his heart.

His mother concubine was not such an unreasonable person, nor would be so crazy. His mother concubine was a gentle woman who couldn’t even speak loudly; his mother’s concubine was a woman who could maintain an elegant demeanor no matter what happened, but now?

His mother concubine yelled like a shrew in the market, with no temperament and cultivation at all.

Did the environment change her, or was she always like this?

“I won’t regret it. I just know that if I miss this opportunity, I will regret it. There are ghosts in Hanfang Palace. If we don’t seize this opportunity, we will never have the chance to find Xiao Tianyao’s fault and pull him down.” Xiao Tianyao’s abnormal behavior made Imperial Concubine Zhou more firmly believe that there was an unspeakable secret in Hanfang Palace, and as long as she finds out about it, she will be able to pull Xiao Tianyao down.

If Xiao Tianyao was not pulled down, her son will never have had a chance.

She didn’t want to let go of such a good opportunity.

Xiao Zian sighed: “Mother Concubine, you think too highly of yourself, and look down on Imperial Uncle Xiao too much. Even if there are secrets in Hanfang Palace that cannot be told, even if the secrets in Hanfang Palace can bring Imperial Uncle Xiao down, so what if you broke in and found it?”

Will his mother concubine naively think that as long as evidence exists, his Imperial Uncle Xiao can be pulled down?

It was just ridiculous!

His Imperial Uncle Xiao didn’t rely on rules to get to the top, he relied on military power. As long as Imperial Uncle Xiao has military power, no one can do anything to him.

“Of course, it is to expose his true face and let the world know his despicable and nasty side.” Although she doesn’t know what was in Hanfang Palace, Imperial Concubine Zhou believes that the things inside must not be exposed to the sun… …
