Zhao Zhongru looked at Zhao Zhongsheng with a sneer in his eyes, "Second brother, what you said is ridiculous, what are you pretending to do for me?"
The word "brother" was taken seriously by Zhao Zhongru.
"You—" Zhao Zhongsheng was furious. Before he could curse any more, the palace servant's voice interrupted him.
"The decree has arrived!"
As the prince of the prison state, Zhao Jin was not the emperor after all, so the decree he proposed was also called an edict rather than an imperial edict.
Zhao Xin and Zhao Zhongsheng instantly understood what this edict was.
This is contrary to the purpose of their coming here, and neither of them is willing to accept this edict.
Zhao Zhongru didn't have any connections in the palace. Even in the Prince's Mansion, the only people he could rely on were a few scattered people from his mother's side.
As a result, Zhao Zhongru could not know even a little bit of the news in the court.
However, for Zhao Zhongsheng to be so angry, it seems that what he has been asking for has failed.
What has Zhao Zhongsheng been asking for?
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Zhao Zhongru's lips.
"The king, the two princes, please accept the order." The person who delivered the order was Shouguan.
No matter how reluctant Zhao Xin and Zhao Zhongsheng were, they could not disobey the order.
This edict, as expected, was to confer Zhao Zhongru as the crown prince.
To the surprise of the three of them, Zhao Jin only asked Zhao Xin to return to the vassal state, and named Zhao Zhongsheng and Zhao Zhongru to stay. On the grounds of cherishing their talents, he kept them in the palace to teach them.
The blood of Zhao Xin and Zhao Zhongsheng ran cold.
Prince, could it be that he knew about it, so he asked the two of them to stay?
Zhao Zhongru's expression remained unchanged, except for a slight shock in his eyes.
"The king of kings."
Zhao Xin was stunned by this edict. After Shouquan finished reading the edict, he did not reach out to take it until Shouquan shouted again.
He received the order in a daze and did not come back to his senses until he stood up.
"Congratulations to the king, this time he has a successor. Moreover, His Highness is very optimistic about the two princes and is already looking for his teacher!"
Shouquan congratulated Zhao Xin with a smile.
But Zhao Xin could hardly smile. If the prince was Zhong Sheng, it would be worthy of celebration, but now that Zhao Zhongru is canonized as the prince, it is extremely unlucky!
But Shouguan was not only a popular figure around the emperor, but also did not neglect Shouguan after Zhao Jin came to power. This was something he could not offend.
"Eunuch Shouquan, thank you for your hard work." Zhao Xin barely managed to avoid being embarrassed and called his attendants to reward Shouquan with a small bag of silver.
"Hey."
Shouquan took the money and was not polite to Zhao Xin. He smiled and said: "It's not hard for me, I have to thank you, the prince."
"But."
He weighed the bag of tips in his hand, still smiling and saying, "Some courtiers are already dissatisfied with the prince continuing to stay in Bianzhou City."
Zhao Xin's heart was a little shuddering, and he didn't care about Prince Wang's affairs. He gratefully bowed his hand to Shouquan and said, "Thank you, father-in-law, for informing me."
As a vassal king, if he stayed in Bianzhou for too long, he would easily arouse the suspicion of others.
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. I won't bother you anymore. I have to go back to meet His Highness."
"Father-in-law, please go slowly."
Because of the news Shouquan finally revealed, Zhao Xin also wanted to have a good relationship and sent the person away personally.
After returning, Zhao Xin held the edict in his hand and his face was ashen, "You two stay in the palace and you must be careful about everything."
"Father, what the prince is doing..." Zhao Zhongsheng was frightened.
He no longer has the position of prince, and the only way left is to rebel.
If he returned to the vassal state, he would still be sure to persuade Zhao Xin to join forces with the Southern Barbarians to rebel, but he was now left in Bianzhou.
Zhao Zhongsheng couldn't help but wonder whether Zhao Jin had gained insight into their movements and thoughts through this move.
"alright!"
Zhao Xin interrupted Zhao Zhongsheng angrily, with a look on his face
A little impatiently, "Don't say any more about this matter."
Zhao Jin's informants were everywhere in the palace. In public, Zhao Zhongsheng wanted to express his dissatisfaction. He was really confused.
What's more, Shouguan's words just now were already a reminder to them.
Zhao Xin didn't say anything more to Zhao Zhongsheng and turned around to leave.
Looking at the opponent's back, Zhao Zhongsheng was stunned on the spot.
This was the first time he was yelled at by Zhao Xin.
This change made Zhao Zhongsheng's whole heart feel like it was hanging over a cliff, with no place to land.
Zhao Zhongru glanced at him, returned to the room and closed the door directly.
The prince's sincerity has been shown, and after that, it is up to him to show his usefulness and sincerity.
After the canonization of the crown prince was over, Zhao Xin began to prepare to return to the feudal kingdom.
At this moment, Chen Xiao's battle report was also handed in.
In the main hall, more than a dozen courtiers, Zhao Xin, Zhao Zhongru and Zhao Zhongsheng were all here.
The soldiers responsible for escorting the border emergency report strode in after passing the call.
His face, which had been eroded by wind, frost, and dust, was filled with unstoppable joy and excitement.
"I see you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Get up, what's the current situation at the border?" Zhao Jin was a little anxious, straightened up and leaned forward slightly.
Next to them, Zhao Xin and Zhao Zhongsheng stared at the soldiers with burning eyes.
Even during the previous test, Zhao Jin acted calmly and calmly towards the joint attack on Zhao State by various countries, so that they did not dare to act rashly.
But no matter what, only actual results can best explain whether Zhao Jin has any trump card.
"Reporting to Your Highness, a great victory at the border, Lilong Kingdom has been captured, and Wan Yanbai has been captured!"
With that said, the soldier held the battle report in his hands and respectfully presented it to Zhao Jin.
Fukang quickly went down and gave the battle report to Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin opened it and quickly scanned the battle report.
"Okay! Okay! Hahahaha!" Zhao Jin was overjoyed.
Chen Xiao almost captured the Lilong Kingdom with minimal battle losses, while Wan Yanbai and other nobles of the Lilong Kingdom were not able to escape and were all captured.
He directly passed the battle report down for the courtiers to circulate.
Every courtier who saw the battle report was so excited that his hands trembled and his eyes trembled.
This victory will not only enhance the national prestige of Zhao State, wash away the humiliation suffered by Zhao State, but also deter the surrounding neighboring countries!
Zhao Xin and Zhao Zhongsheng watched it together. When the battle report reached Zhao Xinxin, Zhao Zhongsheng couldn't help but get closer.
After reading the content clearly, like all the courtiers, their hands holding the battle report began to tremble.
It's just that the courtiers were excited and they were afraid.
Although the Long Kingdom was a small country, its strength should not be underestimated.
However, Chen Xiao easily destroyed the Lilong Kingdom because of the so-called cannon.
If they raise an army, will they establish the Long Kingdom for the second time, or in other words, the second Zhao Xingyu?
At this moment, Zhao Xin did not dare to think of raising an army again, and Zhao Zhongsheng had to suppress this thought even if he was unwilling to do so.
