Chapter 227: The Target
The Seventh Prince looked at his back, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a strange arc.
In fact, he already knew where the prince had come back.
His recent actions are too mysterious, and they have long aroused the curiosity and speculation of the Seven Princes.
After all, their brothers have always been secretly fighting each other.
For that supreme position, although they did not directly tear their faces, they were not fuel-efficient lamps in private.
They all want to kill each other, but unfortunately the emperor is still there, and they don't dare to do it too obviously.
No matter what, they have to give the emperor a face, and if the news of their brothers' cannibalism spreads, the people in the royal family will become the focus of discussion among the people of the world.
Therefore, although they both want to step each other into the mire, they will never turn over.
However, he was extremely careful when acting and did not dare to let the emperor know.
A few days ago, the crown prince suddenly gave him eye medicine in front of the emperor, and he was blamed by his father and almost punished.
Although he pushed all the charges away, the emperor's attitude towards him was a little different after all.
In any case, he must not lose the qualification to compete for the throne, and once he completely loses power, he will no longer have any hope for the position of prince.
He gave too much to be able to know everything he wanted.
Now, with that man's help, the prince has secretly sabotaged his plans several times.
The Seven Princes wanted to find out the identity of the other party, so they had been secretly ordering people to follow them, in order to find out the flaws of the crown prince.
If all the people who serve the crown prince wholeheartedly can follow him, the crown prince will not be a threat to him when he competes for the throne in the future......
The next day, the Seventh Prince deliberately dressed up as an ordinary rich and noble son, and went directly to the residence of Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao.
It took him a lot of thought to find out about the prince's whereabouts.
Although he is very careful every time, but many times, he will always show flaws.
When the Seventh Prince passed, Ling Haoxuan happened to go out to help Xue Yao buy something and met him.
Although Ling Haoxuan didn't know the identity of this person, he looked a little similar to the crown prince, and his temperament was similar, with a sense of superiority.
However, the crown prince is born with nobility, and even if he doesn't do anything, just standing there, it will make people feel that he is sacred and cannot be offended.
The crown prince is the son of the emperor himself, and his every move is full of elegance and nobility.
These things have long been engraved into his bones, even if he is good at everything, he can still make people really respect him.
However, the ambition of the Seventh Prince is too great, which hides his own extravagance, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
After Ling Haoxuan guessed that he might be the brother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he didn't show any abnormality.
"Wait!" Originally, Ling Haoxuan was about to leave directly, but as soon as he turned around, he was stopped by the Seventh Prince.
"Childe called me, but is there something?" He blinked and looked at the other party innocently.
"Do you know the owner of this yard?" The Seventh Prince saw that he was dressed well, so he wanted to find out the news from his mouth.
Although he knew that the prince often came and went here, he had not seen Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao, so he would inevitably be curious.
What's more, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can not be defeated in a hundred battles.
He wanted to find out the details of Jiang Zhan and his wife, so that he could make better use of their relationship with the prince.
Because the prince is a concubine, he was named the prince when he was a few years old, and the seventh prince was very unconvinced.
is also the emperor's son, and he asks himself that his talent and knowledge are no worse than the prince.
Why can he sit on the throne of the prince because of his background, but he can only be a prince.
The Seventh Prince's heart was out of balance, and he always felt that if the prince was not the concubine of the middle palace, he would not be qualified to compete with him at all.
"Yes, is Childe looking for them?" Ling Haoxuan felt very uncomfortable when he saw his eyes.
Although he was only ten years old before he arrived, he had followed his senior brother and parents on the rivers and lakes since he was a child, and Ling Haoxuan had seen a lot of people, so he naturally knew how to distinguish the malice and kindness in their eyes.
Besides, although he has experienced a lot, his mind is still pure.
The utilitarianism in the eyes of the Seven Princes, as well as the temptation, he saw it very clearly.
"What's your relationship with them?" The Seventh Prince inquired privately, but he didn't hear that the owner of this house had such a big child.
However, this child moved in with them, and he thought that Ling Haoxuan was a relative of Jiang Zhan and his wife.
Therefore, he wanted to find out their relationship with the crown prince from Ling Haoxuan's mouth.
The Seventh Prince treated him like an ordinary child.
He thinks that children generally don't lie, so he wants to talk to him.
However, in order not to scare Ling Haoxuan, he wanted to take it step by step.
At the same time, the Seventh Prince also took out a nice gadget and gave it to Ling Haoxuan, he felt that boys should like these things.
It's a pity that Ling Haoxuan's reaction was beyond his expectations.
Instead of accepting it, he pushed away the hand of the Seventh Prince.
"Bold!" When the personal entourage of the Seventh Prince saw his actions, they immediately scolded.
Ling Haoxuan looked at them with a wary face, "Who are you?" ”
After the Seventh Prince saw Ling Haoxuan's eyes, he glared at his entourage fiercely.
He had already frightened Ling Haoxuan by doing this, and he wanted to ask for news from his mouth, I was afraid that it would not be easy.
"Don't be afraid, we're not bad people, we won't hurt you!" The Seven Princes showed all their patience.
"That's what the bad guys say!" Ling Haoxuan said with a displeased face, "I'm going out to buy something, get out of the way!" ”
"How about if you tell me who you are, and I'll give you these gold leaves?" The Seventh Prince had no choice, so he directly took out the gold leaf that he carried with him and used to reward others.
"Come on, there's a kidnapper here!" Ling Haoxuan suddenly let go of his voice and shouted.
"Shut up, if you keep shouting, believe it or not, I'll pull out your tongue!" The Seventh Prince didn't expect Ling Haoxuan to treat himself as a kidnapper.
How could he be a kidnapper when he was such a handsome and dashing jade tree in the wind? The faces of the Seven Princes were all dark.
"Bad guys!" Ling Haoxuan continued to mumble loudly, he just wanted the Seventh Prince to become the target of the public.
At that time, he didn't have the heart to trouble Xue Yao and Jiang Zhan again.
The Seven Princes had been inquiring about their identities before, apparently having doubts in their hearts.
Ling Haoxuan didn't want him to know too much, so he deliberately used his advantage to drive him away.
When he left, he went to tell Jiang Zhan about the matter, so that they could be prepared.
As for Jiang Zhan's secret assistance to the crown prince, Ling Haoxuan knew about it.
Even though he didn't know the inside story, he also knew that they would stand with the prince in the future.
Once something happens to the crown prince, they will not be spared.
Ling Haoxuan had already experienced a broken family, and he didn't want the person he cared about to have an accident again......
The Seventh Prince was worried that his identity would be discovered, and wanted to suppress Ling Haoxuan by force.
When he realized the other party's move, he immediately resisted.
Ling Haoxuan knew very well in his heart that he might not be able to beat him.
However, if he didn't try his best, this person would definitely go to Jiang Zhan and them, and they would be very passive if they were unprepared at that time.
The Seventh Prince didn't expect that a child would be able to do martial arts, and he also had some ability.
He suddenly became interested, and instead of immediately making a ruthless move, he fought two rendezvous with him.
In the end, Ling Haoxuan was still defeated by the Seven Princes, he was too young after all, and his martial arts cultivation was not high.
The Seventh Prince was born in the royal family, and since he was a child, he has invited a famous teacher to guide him, and his martial arts are naturally not low.
He successfully controlled Ling Haoxuan.
At this time, the Seventh Prince realized that his identity was not simple.
When an ordinary child encounters this kind of thing, he will usually only cry and shout for someone to save him, but after Ling Haoxuan was attacked by himself, he could still fight back, which made him very curious, who is this child?
"Kid, you don't have to be so nervous, I just came to talk to Jiang Gongzi about business, and I didn't have any malice, and I wasn't a kidnapper!" The Seventh Prince said with a smile.
"Really?" Ling Haoxuan looked at his friendly appearance, but he didn't believe it.
This person was uneasy and kind-hearted at first glance, how could he simply come to talk about business, not to mention that he was a prince, and the property in his hands was handed over to others to take care of......
"How can you be so wary of a little child?" The Seventh Prince saw the distrust in his eyes.
"I don't know you!" Ling Haoxuan clearly expressed his rejection of the Seven Princes.
Hearing this, the Seventh Prince suddenly smiled, and at this moment he wanted to see Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao even more.
He really wants to know what kind of person can raise such an excellent child.
There is a lot of deceit in the royal family, and they have been forced to grow up quickly since they were young, and if they don't, they won't be able to survive safely.
Everyone felt that the child born in the royal family was very happy, and he had a transcendent status since he was born.
In fact, they are also very depressed in their hearts, because they will start to compete with their brothers for favor and status as soon as they are sensible.
If they are the slightest slack, they will be compared, and no one in the palace will take care of the children who cannot be cherished by the emperor.
The mother concubine of the Seven Princes was still favored back then, and their mother and son had a good life in the palace.
However, since the position of the prince was decided, his mother's unwillingness in her heart has gradually been revealed.
In the royal family, only those who ascend to the throne are the final winners, and everyone else will eventually become pawns in the hands of the emperor.
Even if you keep to yourself, you may not be able to live a safe and smooth life.
They have to fight for their own destiny and that of others......
At present, most of the emperor's sons are ambitious.
The Nine Emperor Princes, who were the only ones close to the crown prince, may not really have any other thoughts in their hearts.
However, his age is not dominant among the princes, so he can only find a way to find a backer for himself......
Ling Haoxuan's shout alarmed the guards arranged by Jiang Zhan.
After the guards heard his voice, they immediately reported to Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao, and at the same time sent someone out to check the situation.
After all, although Ling Haoxuan was not their little master, he was also the person they needed to protect......
