Chapter 954: Wake up, the final winner

When a person was forced into a corner, anything would be possible.

The Eldest Prince was originally hesitant and uneasy. It was a perilous thing for the Third Prince to get involved in military power. There was no chance that the people in his hands would betray him and follow the Third Prince.

Moreover, when the Third Prince dies on the battlefield, his father will discover his intentions, and he will not let him go for the sake of his beloved son.

However, when his good father, the Emperor, blamed him for the death of a slave in his house and publicized his cruelty and violence, the last trace of hesitation and worry in the Eldest Prince's heart disappeared.

Since their father was unkind, then he, as a son, can only be unjust. Didn't their father always want the Third Prince to take over the troops in his hands?

Fine, he will give his father and the Third Prince a chance to take over the military power and give the Third Prince a chance to establish his achievements, so that he could leave his name in history and be recorded in the annals of history.

There was no need for the Emperor to say anything. The Eldest Prince submitted a confession very consciously and took the initiative to admit that he was the one who beat the slave to death. He also admitted that he had a bad temper and needed to calm down and cultivate himself.

To cultivate his moral integrity, the Eldest Prince asked the Emperor to allow him to hand over all the affairs at hand, and then let him stay at the Imperial Temple to reflect for a year.

One year was neither long nor short, but if he wanted to do something, one year was not enough. Even half a year was enough.

This move by the Eldest Prince can be said to have provided great convenience to the Emperor and the Third Prince, but the Emperor disagreed.

He always felt that this was unusual. As everyone knows, his eldest son regarded military power as more important than his life, so would hand it over so simply? Could it be a fraud?

No need to mention the Emperor, even others were shocked when they learned what the Eldest Prince wanted to do. The Eldest Prince's maternal family couldn't sit still anymore, so they went to see the Eldest Prince that day. Who knows what they said to the Eldest Prince, but they finally came out dejected, as if they had received a huge blow.

They failed to persuade the Eldest Prince. Even if they persuaded the Eldest Prince at this time, it would not work to make the Eldest Prince give up his thoughts. The letter has been presented to the Emperor, and the Emperor will never let go of this opportunity.

The Second Prince, the Fourth Prince, and the Fifth Prince had always wanted military power. When they learned about this matter, they quickly investigated this matter and walked out proudly.

The Sixth Prince had always kept himself in front of others and regarded himself as a transcendent master. He looked at others with a cold expression of 'you guys are just mortals' But at this moment, he couldn't sit still. As soon as he learned that the Second Prince and others went to see the Eldest Prince. He immediately prepared a heavy gift and headed to the Eldest Prince's mansion.

The Second Prince and the other princes came out triumphantly. They must have received certain news. What the Sixth Prince hoped for was that the eldest prince would consider giving him his troops and the horses he had.

"Brother, don't worry, I will never treat you badly. How you were before will be the same when you come back 1 year later. I will never touch anyone, and I will return it to you intact after 1 year. I promise you this." The Sixth Prince changed his previous aloofness and promised one sentence after another, but the Eldest Prince did not answer and just remained silent.

However, the Sixth Prince was not angry. He showed his sincerity. The Eldest Prince would know the best choice.

Since the Eldest Prince submitted the plan to hand over all the matters in hand, the other prince came one after another. Only the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince were left.

The Third Prince will not go. He has the Emperor to stand up for him, so there is no need for him to stand up. As for the Seventh Prince?

Although he was not young, he had never been involved in the struggle for the throne, not before, not now, and not in the future. Even if he was extremely anxious and wanted to go to the eldest prince to find out what was going on. He couldn't move and could only wait for news in the palace.

The Eldest Prince's letter was like a huge stone thrown into a lake, causing thousands of waves. All civil and military officials were paying attention to who would get the military power of the Eldest Prince in the end.

At this moment, apart from Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, the only calmest people in the imperial capital were people from the seven great families.

For the people of the aristocratic family, which prince has military power and which prince ascends the throne has no impact on them at all. How they will live would still be the same as now. No matter who sits on the throne, they will not dare do anything to the aristocratic family.

However, just because they don't care doesn't mean they won't pay attention. The seven great families were all analyzing the profound meaning of the Eldest Prince's move.

"Tell me, what does the Eldest Prince's move mean?"

Even though the Eldest Prince always gave people the impression that he was brave and foolish, people from the seven great families did not dare to regard him as a fool.

Being able to survive in the palace and hold military power for so many years without being taken away by the Emperor, even if the Eldest Prince was stupid, the supporters behind him were not stupid.

"To retreat to advance, or maybe he is playing a big game." As onlookers, people from aristocratic families can see it more clearly than anyone else.

The military power in the hands of the Eldest Prince won't be easy to control.

"As for what happens, it depends on whose hands the military power will fall in the end." The Eldest Son of Dongyang sat on the chair with a smile on his face, looking into the distance with his eyes blankly.

It was not that he was absent-minded, and his eyes were staring from afar. But because his eyes cannot see anything.

"Who do you think the military power will fall to in the end?" The Headmaster of the Dongyang family and the Headmaster of the Hua Family were both present, waiting for Young Master Dongyang to make up his mind.

"The Eldest Prince probably wanted the Third Prince to get it, and the Emperor must have thought so too." The Third Prince's maternal family was not strong, so he was deeply loved by the Emperor.

Of course, in their opinion, rather than saying that the Emperor loved the Third Prince very much, it was better to say that the Third Prince fell in the Emperor's eyes because he had no power behind his back and could only rely on the Emperor's favor.

There are seven princes, and each of them is not simple. Among the seven, only the Third Prince was the weakest. Such a person will naturally catch the Emperor's eye because no matter how much the Emperor favors him, the Third Prince cannot threaten the Emperor's position.

The princes who were deeply involved in the situation could not see clearly, thinking that they only had to compete with their brothers for the throne. Their real opponent was the man who sat on the throne and whom they called their imperial father.

Judging from the actions of the Eldest Prince, it is obvious that he has seen things now, so he will let them go and take action while he still has the ability.

"It seems that the final winner is the Third Prince." Neither the Headmaster of the Dongyang family nor the Headmaster of the Hua family were stupid. What else do they not understand after hearing what Young Master Dongyang said?

What they didn't expect, after all the fighting, was that the person who everyone thought was impossible would be the most likely to get that position.

"I don't know what kind of master is standing behind the Eldest Prince, but he woke him up at this moment." The Headmaster of the Hua Family shook his head and smiled bitterly......

At this time, Xiao Tianyao, who was sitting in the inn chatting with Lin Chujiu about the Eldest Prince's actions, kept sneezing, one after another......
