Li Chengren was very confused, who wanted him dead so much?
Ye Qing smiled slightly: "You already have the answer in your mind, don't you?"
Li Chengren's face looked a little painful: "Can it be said that the throne is really more important than family ties?"
Both of them guessed that one of the princes had done it.
After a while, Li Chengren calmed down and stayed. By this time, his wounds had been bandaged by doctors and he had taken a lot of healing elixirs.
Being born into an imperial family, he should have known that this day would come.
"But what I'm curious about is why they wanted to assassinate me. I'm obviously the least likely one."
Ye Qing smiled slightly: "The world is still uncertain. Anyone may be the dark horse. Besides, you are the oldest, the most capable, and the richest among them."
"You are the biggest danger."
"Therefore, only by eliminating all hidden dangers can we have peace of mind."
"Who are you...Prince Jin?" Li Chengren's eyes dimmed. He still liked his little brother very much.
Ye Qing nodded and continued: "It may be King Xiang, but if King Xiang takes action, the one he wants to get rid of most should be King Jin."
"So overall, King Jin is the most likely."
Li Chengren's mind was in a mess. He raised his head and asked, "Brother Ye, what should I do next?"
Ye Qing smiled mysteriously: "Don't be impatient now, we'll talk about it later."
A full day passed without Ye Qing saying anything, which made Li Chengren anxious.
"Brother Ye, what are you waiting for?"
Ye Qing said slowly: "We are waiting for news about your father, Li Tianhe."
"News about the father?" Li Chengren was immediately confused.
Ye Qing began to explain patiently.
"Generally speaking, when a prince is assassinated, the entire city of Chang'an becomes tense."
"The royal family will investigate all the information about the killer and make it public to make the assassin pay a heavy price."
"But now, it has been a day, and there is no movement in the palace. The city guards only came after the assassin was killed yesterday."
Li Chengren frowned: "What does this mean?"
"This shows that the battle for the throne has already begun. Others have taken the lead in making their move, but your father turns a blind eye to all this. He just wants to choose the strongest one among you!" Ye Qing said seriously.
"It also means that your father can't hold on for much longer, so he can only let you kill each other to choose the person most suitable to inherit the throne."
"Only those who are ruthless enough can inherit the throne!"
Li Chengren was stunned on the spot, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
"Brother Ye, what should we do next?"
Ye Qing smiled and said: "Continue with the previous plan, win over King Xiang and Yang Ping, and ignore the rest."
"As long as I protect you, they will never be able to hurt you."
"After that, it's all about waiting!"
From that day on, Ye Qing followed Li Chengren and acted as a bodyguard.
Even though Li Chengren was still injured, he ran to Yang Ping. After giving him a gift, he still didn't get a clear answer and could only leave angrily.
Later, he came to Prince Xiang's Mansion.
Li Chenglei took the initiative to greet him, his every move was still full of femininity, and his voice was sharp and sharp.
"Brother Huang came to see me, isn't it just to reminisce about old times?"
Soon, he asked straight to the point.
Li Chengren nodded slowly and said, "I am here for an important matter."
"Brother, how sure are you of becoming the king?"
Li Chenglei was stunned, stretched out a finger and said: "No more than 10%!"
Even he himself has no confidence in himself at all, because all the advantages are in the hands of Li Chengliang.
Li Chengren smiled slightly and said all the words Ye Qing taught him.
"Royal brother, why don't you and I join forces?"
Li Chengliang chuckled and covered his mouth like a woman.
"Brother Huang, are you joking? If I join forces with others, I should join forces with Cheng Liang. Why should I join forces with Brother Huang? No matter how you look at it, Brother Huang has no chance, right?"
Li Chengren's expression did not change, but he said slowly: "In this battle for the throne, I have half the chance, and the other half is in the hands of my father."
"Huh? Do you think the Jin King's brother has no chance at all?" Li Chengliang looked shocked.
Li Chengren smiled and said, "Believe it or not, but what I want to say is that if you stand in the wrong team, you won't be able to come back."
Li Chengliang lowered his head and pondered. He wanted to know where Li Chengren's confidence lies.
When he saw Ye Qing, he didn't believe it. With just this monk, he dared to say that he had half a chance?
So he didn't agree directly, but said he would think about it again.
Everything was as expected, and Ye Qing and Li Chengren did not get entangled too much, but returned directly to Prince Wu's Mansion.
In the following days, Ye Qing and Li Chengren stayed together.
But Li Chengren still went to the place where Yang Ping lived every day, and then went to see the King of Xiang.
After the last assassination, Li Chengren was not assassinated again, and life seemed to have calmed down.
But beneath the surface calm, there is already an undercurrent surging.
King Xiang finally chose to join forces with Li Chengren because of what Li Chengren said before.
A few days later, as it was getting dark, a eunuch from the palace also came to Prince Wu's Mansion.
"His Royal Highness King Wu, Your Majesty is about to die, please all the princes to come over!"
Li Chengren was immediately shocked: "How could it be so fast?"
At this time, Ye Qing's eyes were shining brightly, and he quickly shouted to the eunuch: "Father-in-law, please come back, we will be there shortly!"
The father-in-law nodded and said, "But be sure to hurry, because this may very well be the last time you see His Majesty."
Li Chengren simply packed up and headed to the palace quickly, but was stopped by Ye Qing.
"Do you want to be emperor?"
Li Chengren didn't know why Ye Qing suddenly asked this, so he said: "Of course I do!"
"That's good, now is the best opportunity!" Ye Qing said seriously.
"What opportunity?" Li Chengren asked subconsciously.
"Grab the throne. If you don't snatch it, how can you wait?" Ye Qing hates that iron cannot be transformed into steel. "Go find Yang Ping quickly, contact King Xiang, and tell him that we will rush into the palace and force the emperor to let you succeed to the throne.
!”
Li Chengren exclaimed: "Mutiny?!"
Ye Qing smiled slightly: "If everyone is happy with the result, it is not a mutiny."
Li Chengren is still a little scared. Isn't this the boy's rebellion against me?
"Although my father is seriously ill, there are many masters in the palace and there are also many guards. How can it be possible to rush in?"
Ye Qing slowly shook his head with a smile on his face.
"Don't worry, your father won't let anyone take action this time!"
