Xiao Zheng listened to Ling Lai's words, but a hint of surprise appeared on his face: "Crown Prince Tianxiong? ”

Although Xiao Zheng is just an ordinary person, he still understands the inheritance rules of the Japanese imperial family. The current emperor does not die, and the crown prince will always be just the crown prince. Cannot be promoted. Therefore, there are often crown princes in their forties and fifties, or even older, ascending to the throne. If you are unlucky and your son dies and Lao Tzu does not die, the inheritance will change hands.

This is also why in ancient China, there were often scenes of the prince forcing the palace emperor Lao Tzu. Not for anything else, just because I'm impatient to wait...

The crown prince of Japan, Teno. It is the current first in line to the throne of the emperor. If there is no accident, once the emperor dies, the next emperor is destined to be the possession of Tenxiong.

Xiao Zheng didn't have any objection to this, but he was very curious, why did Ling Lai bring up this person at this moment?

Raising his eyes slightly, Xiao Zheng looked at Ling Lai meaningfully.

"The eldest brother has a strong chest, both civil and military. It can be said that among the younger generation of the royal family, the best handsome. Usually I care for a cousin like me who has no status. Be humble and polite. Ling Lai's gaze fell on a cherry blossom, and his expression was euphemistic.

Xiao Zheng smiled and said: "Brother and sister are emotionally determined, this is a good thing." ”

The more he listened, the more strange he felt.

For no reason, he suddenly suggested that the crown prince would interrupt, and Xiao Zheng believed that Ling Lai had hinted at it. It's not about being idle and having fun.

"That's right. Mr. Siu. Ling Lai pushed the wheelchair and slowly turned around. Suddenly you came to me. Is there any command? ”

"Don't dare to do it." Xiao Zheng said with a humble attitude. "I just want to ask His Royal Highness the Prince for some news."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Prince Ling Lainei said gently. "I know everything."

Xiao Zheng nodded lightly, and after a little contemplation, he asked, "More than a dozen of our special forces soldiers from the Huaxia side have lost contact with each other on the outskirts of Tokyo. It has been missing for five days so far. I would like to ask His Royal Highness, is there any information on this? ”

"Huaxia soldiers?" Prince Ling Lainei pretended to be surprised. "How did they end up in Japan?"

"On duty." Xiao Zheng said succinctly.

"Have you said hello to the government or the military?" Prince Ling Lainei said with a smile. "Mr. Xiao, although we are friends. However, the relationship between China and Japan has always been relatively sensitive. ”

Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "I didn't say hello." It's a classified mission. ”

Prince Ling Lainei smiled and said, "According to international law, even if they are killed on the spot by our army, it is normal. Since it has been more than five days since the loss of contact. It must be difficult to find any more valid clues. ”

Xiao Zheng frowned slightly, pursed his lips and said, "Your Royal Highness, as a royal nobleman, have you really not heard any news?" ”

Based on Xiao Zheng's knowledge of Ling Lai, this woman is very ambitious and absolutely knows most of the news that happens in Tokyo, including the secrets. It would be a lie to say that she didn't hear anything about it.

But at this moment, Prince Ling Lainei didn't seem to want to reveal too much. even vetoed it immediately, breaking Xiao Zheng's thoughts.

This made Xiao Zheng quite unhappy.

Without his help, would Ling Lai be able to get to where he is today? Is she sure to kill Ito? Meritorious service to the royal family?

Prince Ling Lainei saw Xiao Zheng's displeasure, so he first smiled and reassured Xiao Zheng not to worry. Then, after being silent for a moment, she said slowly: "Mr. Xiao, it's not that I don't want to sue you. I don't want you to get involved. Because this incident involves a wide range of people, the slightest carelessness may make you irreversible. ”

"I'm here." Xiao Zheng shrugged and said. "Don't find those fighters. I'm not leaving. ”

"Why bother?" Ling Lai sighed lightly and said. "As a soldier, I should have had the spirit of sacrificing my life for the country a long time ago. Since the mission failed, it can be considered tragic to apologize for the crime with death. ”

"They are military men. Not a minion. Xiao Zheng did not agree with Ling Lai's point of view. If the mission fails, you should also get out of the way. Their lives are first and foremost their own, then their families, and finally the country. ”

Ling Lai was slightly stunned, and then raised his eyes to look at Xiao Zheng: "Mr. Xiao is indeed a person who values love and righteousness. ”

After a pause, she continued, "Mr. Xiao, I can sue you what I know. But I still hope you don't get involved. After a few days in Tokyo, I left with my team. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll be in danger. ”

"Please." Xiao Zheng said calmly.

When Ling Lai heard this, he no longer pretended to be a villain, and said slowly: "That's right." That group of Chinese soldiers was indeed accused by the Japanese side. I only found out about this news two days ago. ”

"Where?" Xiao Zheng asked sharply. "The military?"

"There is a shadow of the military, but not exactly the military." Ling Lai said slowly.

"Huh?" Xiao Zheng frowned. "Who else?"

"His Majesty the Emperor's own brother, my little imperial uncle." Prince Ling Lainei pursed his lips and said. "The person most likely to inherit the emperor."

Xiao Zheng's expression changed slightly: "Isn't your eldest imperial brother the first heir?" ”

"As far as I know, in ancient China, there were countless emperors who were not born as princes." Prince Ling Lainei said meaningfully. "Perhaps the Japanese Imperial Family is not as powerful today as it was at the beginning of the last century. But the existing power is enough to prompt people to fight openly and secretly. ”

Xiao is a native of China, and he has been exposed to these things since he was a child. Coupled with the experience over the years, he completely understood what position the little imperial uncle in Ling Lai's mouth was.

The position is high and powerful, but the name is not right!

"Ito is the guest of honor of the imperial uncle. It was precisely because of his presence that the Imperial Family turned a blind eye to Ito and my mother's misdeeds. Now that Ito is dead, the imperial uncle has no choice but to do so," Prince Ling Lainei said meaningfully. "Develop new allies."

"You mean, that group of lost soldiers was hijacked by the military and your imperial uncle?" Xiao Zheng frowned.

"Hmm." Prince Ling Lainei nodded and said slowly. "As far as I know, Uncle Miyamoto also dispatched the Imperial Guard. Assist the military in this fishing operation. ”

"Why?" Xiao Zheng asked incredulously. "What good is it for Miyamoto to do this?"

"There is no direct benefit." Prince Ling Lainei shook his head and said. But he provided the military with the whereabouts of the Chinese soldiers, including time, place, and target tasks. The ultimate goal is to get the military secrets of the Huaxia military from the mouth of the leader of this special force. ”

"In this way, the military owes Uncle Miyamoto a big man. It also adds chips to his future succession. Ling Lai said succinctly.

In just one sentence, it also said the darkness and cruelty of the royal family.

The uncle and nephew who should have lived in harmony were fighting openly and secretly because of the supreme inheritance, and even formed a party for personal gain. Disrupt the program. It's shocking.
