Hearing this, Xiao Tiannan showed a sigh of relief. He said in a deep voice: "Crown Prince, now... is not the time to go back."

It seemed that it was not surprising that Xiao Tiannan would say this. Yelu Shenxuan said lightly: "You continue to say it, I'm listening."

Xiao Tiannan nodded and said slowly: "I have a question to ask. If the prince sets off immediately now, should he go back lightly or take the army back?"

Yelu Shenxuan frowned and said, "Although I haven't made a decision yet, if I want to go back, I must be going back lightly."

"Okay, since you're going back with light clothes, you'll only be a guard with a hundred people at most, right?" Xiao Tiannan said again.

Yelu Shenxuan said lightly: "That's natural. The reason why we don't bring a large army is that the army has just experienced a war and needs to rest and recuperate. In addition, the crescent gate must have enough troops to guard it. On the other hand, the army is slow in marching. When the entire army returns to the wolf court, we don't know when it will be, which is not in line with the current actual situation."

"That's right, since that's the case, the monarch's physical condition no longer allows him to help the prince. In other words, when the prince returns to the wolf court, he has to face those great nobles who are eyeing him."

Xiao Tiannan said in a very erratic tone: "I am going to make a supposition of death. If the king returned to the wolf court just after the prince returned to the wolf court, or even halfway through the way, then who can guarantee that those great nobles would not have any other thoughts?"

Yelu Shenxuan's eyes were like lightning, staring at Xiao Tiannan, shouting: "Xiao Tiannan, you are so brave!"

Xiao Tiannan immediately knelt down, but said firmly: "The prince said he would not blame the empress."

"Now the crown prince needs a pertinent suggestion, which is the unshirkable responsibility of the minister. Even if the crown prince is furious and wants to kill the minister, he also asks the minister to finish his words and then kill them."

Yelu Shenxuan said coldly: "You continue to talk."

Xiao Tiannan said at a very fast speed: "It is not an exaggeration to say that the prince's position in Liao Kingdom is the most stable crown prince ever. He has the hearts of the people and the support of civil and military officials. Now he has won the Crescent Pass. Such unparalleled merits cannot stop His Highness from succeeding to the throne."

Yelu Shenxuan's expression was slightly better at this time, and he nodded slightly, which was considered to be acknowledging Xiao Tiannan's words.

But Xiao Tiannan immediately said: "But all this is based on the premise that the monarch will hand over the position and power smoothly to the prince. If the monarch suddenly dies, or if he has not had time to smoothly overpower the prince's hands, then will those great nobles really be willing to watch the prince succeed to the throne and become the most dominant monarch in the history of the Liao Kingdom?"

This question made Yelu Shenxuan's face suddenly dark, but he had to admit that Xiao Tiannan asked him the biggest hidden worries.

No one wants to live in the shadow of others for the rest of his life.

The Liao Kingdom seems peaceful, but the waves inside it are turbulent, how can outsiders know?

Yelu Shenxuan knew very well that it was precisely because of the strength and ability he had shown that many great noble tribes were extremely afraid of him.

Because the stronger you are and the greater the power you need, the more you will squeeze their interests.
