C2716 The Eighth Prince's Suggestion



C2716 The Eighth Prince's Suggestion

3"Fourth brother! How can you be like this! "    

    

At this moment, the other princes couldn't stand it anymore. Of course, they had been waiting for an opportunity to attack Fourth Prince. Now that there was an opportunity, they naturally wouldn't let it go.    

    

"What's wrong with me?" Fourth Prince looked at the person who spoke.    

    

The princes of the Fengjue Country were divided into two groups, Fourth Prince and the Tenth Prince. The remaining princes formed a group and confronted each other. Of course... Among them, the Tenth Prince was a little special, although he was on Fourth Prince's side on the surface. However, in his heart, he couldn't wait for Fourth Prince's misfortune to befall him. After all, it was all because of Fourth Prince that he had lost the chance to fight for the throne. Therefore, he didn't have a good impression of Fourth Prince either. He hoped that these people would fight until both of them were severely injured.    

    

"Father went first. We didn't even find the murderer. The most important thing right now isn't to catch the murderer of father first. Should we let father leave safely and comfort his soul in heaven? " Another man stood up and said.    

    

The prince's words caused the other ministers and generals in the hall to discuss in low voices. At this moment, the civil servants and generals that had the right to enter the hall had all arrived. At this critical moment, no one wanted to miss it. After all, this was a moment that concerned their lives and future. They naturally hoped to participate in it themselves.    

    

The words of the prince just now had the support of many civil servants and generals. After all, they didn't even know who the murderer was when Old Emperor was killed. If this matter was spread out, it would be a disgrace to their Fengjue Country. They naturally hoped to catch the murderer as soon as possible and give it to Old Emperor. To the common people, and to the heavens, to give an explanation.    

    

"That's right. Why did you ask people not to search for the murderer? What are your intentions? Or was it that you sent the murderer? So... That's why you did it, fearing that the murderer would be caught and that you would be revealed?" The nearby prince stood out and spoke in a somewhat strange tone.    

    

His words caused the discussions in the hall to become even louder. It was as lively as a market.    

    

In fact, when they were rushing to the palace, the civil servants and generals... They were all guessing who killed Old Emperor. Why was that man so strong that he could enter the palace without anyone knowing? He had knocked out so many people, and who was behind that murderer? This was what they wanted to know the most.    

    

When they thought of the person behind the murderer, many of them unconsciously thought of Fourth Prince. This was because after Old Emperor's death, Fourth Prince was the one who benefited the most from it. He wanted Old Emperor to die the most, so many of them naturally suspected Fourth Prince.    

    

However, even though they doubted him, Fourth Prince was still powerful. Without any evidence, who would dare to directly accuse Fourth Prince? However, although he couldn't accuse Fourth Prince, he still had a lot of doubts about him in his heart.    

    

Now that they heard the words of this prince, coupled with the fact that Fourth Prince really didn't want to capture the murderer with all his might, it made them even more suspicious.    

    

Could it be that Fourth Prince was really the mastermind behind this incident? Otherwise, how could he behave in such a manner?    

    

Seeing that the surrounding people were looking at him suspiciously, Fourth Prince was naturally very angry. He said loudly, "Old Eight! Don't speak nonsense! This matter has nothing to do with me! I also said that this matter is your doing!"    

    

" Me? Why would I do that? What benefits would father's death bring me?" The prince, who was also the eighth prince, said," As for you, you want father to die the most, right? Once father dies, no one will be able to stop you. You can become our Emperor, right? Let me tell you, I refuse to accept this! "    

    

The Eighth Prince and Fourth Prince had always been at odds with each other, and they didn't like each other. Fourth Prince's power was the thing that the Eighth Prince didn't want to see the most. He also knew that once Fourth Prince ascended the throne, he wouldn't have any good days to live. In fact, even his own life would be in danger.    

    

Therefore, he was the most determined prince to resist Fourth Prince's ascension. His attitude was unusually resolute, and he also hoped that Fourth Prince would be unlucky and lose the chance to ascend the throne. In that case, his life would be better, and who would become the Emperor in the end? To him, it was much better than Fourth Prince ascending the throne. Much better.    

    

"You!"    

    

Fourth Prince was almost angered to death by the Eighth Prince, although many people felt that... After Old Emperor's death, he had benefited the most. However... No one said it out loud. Everyone had a tacit understanding. However, the Eighth Prince had pierced through this layer of window paper. Everyone would suspect him because of this, which would put him in a very difficult situation.    

    

Although Fourth Prince was very confident in his ability to seize the throne, especially now that Old Emperor was dead.    

    

However, the dust had yet to settle. Fourth Prince naturally didn't wish for any accidents to happen. After all, those generals didn't express their support for him. Most of them only accepted his orders after listening to Old Emperor's orders. Now that Old Emperor was dead, compared to the other princes... It was easier to recruit those generals, but it was not guaranteed that they would succeed. What if these men refused to accept his offer because they suspected that he had killed Old Emperor? That would be a big deal.    

    

And now, the Eighth Prince's words were obviously meant to arouse suspicion in the hearts of those martial generals. In that case, it would be very difficult for them to recruit those martial generals.    

    

It was also because he understood this that the Eighth Prince had decided to recruit the Martial Generals. That was why Fourth Prince seemed unusually angry.    

    

"What about me? Did I say something wrong?" The Eighth Prince didn't show any signs of weakness in front of Fourth Prince. He said loudly, "Everyone knows that you are the one who wants father to die the most. Now that father is dead, your wish has been fulfilled. However... This father's death is very strange. I seriously suspect that you are the mastermind behind this matter. In order to be fair, before we catch the murderer, I suggest that we don't choose New Emperor for the time being! "    

    

The Eighth Prince's words instantly caused the atmosphere in the hall to boil.    

    

Old Emperor was already dead, so why didn't he choose New Emperor? How could this be? Wasn't this a complete mess? A country couldn't be without a ruler for a single day. This wasn't something to be trifled with. As the largest country outside of the pass, there were many things happening in the Fengjue Country every day. There were also many things that required the Emperor to make a decision. If there was no Emperor, then what about these things? Who would make a decision?    

    

A country without a person to make the decision, wouldn't it be a mess?
