Chapter 953: Instigation, black-hearted

To cover up the stain on the Third Prince, the Emperor did not want to resolve Xiao Tianyao’s matter so quickly. When Xiao Tianyao raised suspicions about the death of the three martial gods, the Emperor took advantage of the situation and sent people to investigate. Before the whole matter could be found, Xiao Tianyao could not leave the Central Empire and needed to be there whenever called.

Of course, as the Hua Family who have always loved Xiao Tianyao, and the Lin Family who “feel guilty” about their children, they naturally have to strive for some benefits for Xiao Tianyao.

For example, the Central Empire cannot restrict Xiao Tianyao’s movements and can allow him to walk freely in the capital. The Central Empire people must not despise the two of them and must give them the same treatment as the Central Empire’s subjects. Furthermore, except for the Emperor, the two of them can ignore the summons of others.

The last item was aimed at the Third Prince, Second Prince, Sixth Prince, and others. The Third Prince had lost his reputation because of the banditry, and he must have hated the three people who were kidnapped by the robbers. The Third Prince could not take out his anger on the Seventh Prince, so he could only vent his anger on Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, who were kidnapped together with the Seventh Prince.

To protect Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, the Hua Family and the Lin Family have put in a lot of effort.

As for the Second Prince?

This was purely incidental. The Second Prince has always been ruthless in his actions. Who knows if he will try to win over Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu after seeing that the Hua Family and the Lin Family value Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu and cause trouble for them.

The Sixth Prince was also their main target of defense. The Sixth Prince has no grudge against Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, but the Zhang Family, who cannot stand the Sixth Prince, has a big grudge against Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.

The Zhang Family was originally the East’s largest businessman and held the right to issue the East banknotes. However, due to the interference of Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, the Zhang Family not only lost the Eastern’s money bag but was even taken over by the Emperor. He hated them. Under such circumstances, the Zhang Family and the Sixth Prince would let Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu go.

To protect Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, the Hua Family and the Lin Family made great efforts and took it seriously. The Eldest Prince was full of worries about this and had to emphasize it again and again to remind Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.

Although the aristocratic family likes to win people’s hearts, they do things with care, which makes people unable to help but be moved.

“I can’t persuade you to stay away from the Hua Family and the Lin Family, but you still have to be careful. Don’t get hot-headed and sacrifice your friends for your confidants.” The Eldest Prince came to the inn to drink tea with Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu. The three of them sat down In the middle of the garden, there were open spaces on all sides, so even if someone wanted to eavesdrop, it would be difficult.

The Eldest Prince said this so many times that Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were tired of hearing it. They knew the Eldest Prince’s good intentions, but no matter how good his intentions were, there was no need to remind him now and then.

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were willing to answer the question at first, but now they were too lazy to answer the question. Seeing Xiao Tianyao holding a tea cup, thinking thoughtfully, Lin Chujiu had no choice but to take up the topic: “How is the collection of evidence against the Third Prince’s crime going?”

“There is no progress. He has always been careful in his actions. He was careless in suppressing the bandits, otherwise, he would not have been in trouble at all.” When the Third Prince was mentioned, the Eldest Prince felt aggrieved.

If Xiao Tianyao hadn’t been behind the plan, and they had joined forces to suppress the bandits, the Third Prince would not have been in trouble. However, the Third Prince would have been even more careful after this incident.

“If there is no evidence of guilt, then create evidence of guilt. The Third Prince has been having a hard time recently, and he must be in great need of a big credit.” Xiao Tianyao, who had been silent for the whole time, suddenly said.

At this time, the Third Prince will make a great contribution, and the mistakes he made before will be forgotten, and even the world will take the initiative to find reasons for him.

For example, being deceived by subordinates, not recognizing people clearly, etc.

“Create evidence of crime? How to do it?” The Eldest Prince’s eyes lit up, and he looked at Xiao Tianyao eagerly, waiting for Xiao Tianyao to give him an idea, but Xiao Tianyao just shook his head: “I don’t know about the Eldest Prince, and I don’t want to know about it. Whatever the Third Prince wants, you can give him.”

Of course, he cannot be unclear, but he cannot interfere. Now the Eldest Prince may not care about his meddling in the Central Empire’s affairs, but when he thinks of these things in the future, he will be wary of him.

No strong man would like to see someone gesticulating in front of him. Although the Eldest Prince has not yet reached that state, it will be a matter of time.

He had to take precautions in advance.

“Give the Third Prince whatever he wants?” These words touched the Eldest Prince’s heartstrings.

The reason why the Third Prince fell into the trap of suppressing bandits was because he desperately wanted military glory, authority in the army, and military power.

The Third Prince had the support of civil servants and the favor of the Emperor, but what he lacked was military power.

It was just that military power was too dangerous. If it fails, both people and money will be lost.

“I have to think about this matter.” Suddenly getting such a big idea, the Eldest Prince was filled with things and had no intention of continuing to drink tea with Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu. He said a few words in a hurry and left with a heavy heart.

Fortunately, the Eldest Prince was not that stupid. He pretended to be nonchalant as soon as he left the inn, so as not to be noticed by others.

After the Eldest Prince left, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu didn’t move. They continued to sit in the garden drinking tea, but Xiao Tianyao was obviously in a much better mood, and Lin Chujiu couldn’t ignore it even if she wanted to.

After putting down the teacup, Lin Chujiu sighed and said, “Are you trying to provoke civil strife in the Central Empire?”

The Eldest Prince didn’t expect it, but that didn’t mean that Lin Chujiu didn’t expect it. As Xiao Tianyao’s pillow, she knew very well how dark this man was.

This man was like a sesame seed. It looks white and clean on the outside, but when people bite into it, it is all black inside.

“The Central Empire will not allow the four countries to unify.” Therefore, the empire must be in chaos first. If they are in chaos, they will have no intention to care about the affairs of the four countries, and they can unify the four countries.

“With the combined strength of the four countries, we can fight against the empire. Before unification, no country can be the opponent of the empire.” He did not want the Central Empire to take action behind his back when he was fighting against the four countries.

His troops were limited, and he could not take care of both sides at the same time. He must strike first to make the Central Empire unable to take care of the affairs of the four countries, and there was nothing better than civil strife.

“Can the Eldest Prince do it?” The Eldest Prince was not smart enough, nor cruel enough. He was even too loyal. Lin Chujiu was worried that he would not be cruel enough.

After all, for so many years, the Eldest Prince has been oppressed by the Emperor and the Emperor has not seen him resist, let alone see him having second thoughts. This shows how loyal and honest the Eldest Prince is.

“A man who is forced can do anything. He has no favor from the Emperor and no one to support him. He has nothing except military power. Moreover, the Emperor has always been afraid of him and his maternal family. If he does not want to fall into the situation of being slaughtered by others, he can only give it a try.” Based on the Eldest Prince’s status in the Central Empire, if he does not rely on martial arts to seize the throne, he will never be able to ascend to that position.

And as time goes by, the military power in the hands of the Eldest Prince will become less and less. Instead of being forced to a dead end in the end, it is better to give it a try early, and maybe there will be a glimmer of hope……
