160 Inseparable
Ling Xiaoning took a step back and shook his head gently.
"No, if the two of you were willing to take a step back, you wouldn't be in that situation."
"How to take a step back? He snatched the woman I loved, and now he threatens to let my father hang up at any moment...... He usually doesn't care about anything, but he wants to hold everything in his hands, how can I act that nothing has happened? β
"Don't talk nonsense, I think you just hate him in your heart for doing things you can't do."
"I met him first, and it doesn't have much to do with you. As for the matter of the throne, according to the normal rules, he should inherit the throne of the king, didn't you also be very interested in the position of this king before? Why do you suddenly care so much about this position now? β
"I used to be naΓ―ve enough to take this kind of thing to heart, but now that so many things have happened, I realize that if I don't get the position of king, then I will go to hell...... It's not just me, but the people I have a relationship with, including my mother, won't have a good time. In order not to disappoint these people and end up as miserable as me, I must pick myself up and fight him for the throne with all my might. β
"These things have been brutal since ancient times, but they don't have to be like that...... If you are willing to give up these petty schemes and no longer have any effect on him, I will do my best to persuade him to let you go, even if he ascends to the throne one day...... You will not be affected much, and the royal family and nobles will have a carefree life. β
"That's impossible, don't look at him now seems to put you in a very important position, but if one day you affect his throne, do you think you will not be affected in the slightest? It's good that you can live a good life in the future, and you won't be able to manage others at all. β
"You ......"
"It's rare that you will still care about my body at this time, come and take a look at me, then I will be kind enough to say a word to you. If you are willing to change your mind at this time, and if you are with me, help me get the throne of king, and then I can give you the position of princess...... Of course, if you keep being obsessed, I can only see what to do with you when the time comes. I also hope that when that day comes, you and him will be able to stand in the position of the king, so that you will not end up miserable. β
"You...... I'll work with him to become the king, so you can do it yourself! β
Ling Xiaoning turned around angrily and walked forward, and when he walked outside, he was blocked by two fierce palace maids.
"What do you want to do?"
"You are a subordinate of His Royal Highness the Great Prince, don't think about leaving so easily!"
The voice of His Royal Highness the Second Prince came from behind. "Let him go this time."
The two palace maids hesitated for a moment, and each took a step back.
Ling Xiaoning breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly left his palace.
Seeing that the current situation is a little different from what he imagined, the two brothers have already reached a point where they cannot be alleviated.
It is impossible for her to ease the relationship between the two with her own mouth, and it will take a lot of effort.
It is not certain whether it will be of some use at that time.
Because of the influence of some gossip, the atmosphere in the palace has become much more depressing than before, and many rules in the palace have also changed.
His Royal Highness the eldest prince, in order to promote frugality, removed many palace maids and eunuchs from their positions and put them outside the palace.
The palace maids and eunuchs who continue to do things in the palace are also quite strict, and they can't make any mistakes casually and walk around.
Such a rule is also to prevent someone from maliciously spreading rumors, resulting in chaos in the palace.
The king suddenly fell ill and almost went to the Western Heavens, which made the entire palace nervous.
After His Royal Highness the eldest prince and His Royal Highness the second prince got the news, they immediately went to visit the king's hospital bed.
Fortunately, after a period of rectification by the imperial doctor, the king's situation has stabilized a little, but everyone also understands in their hearts that the king's situation is no longer able to recover.
The king is now counting the days, day by day, and I don't know which day he suddenly couldn't hold on and went to the west.
Yukata didn't say anything in the king's palace, and after leaving, the word came out that the king's situation was getting more and more critical, and he might not survive for a few days.
In case anything unexpected happens. Song Zhiqiu was even more careful to let people leak the water in the three outer layers of the king's dormitory, and ordinary people could not enter at will.
In addition to him, even if it is the princess of His Royal Highness the Second Prince and the mother of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, if they want to go in to visit the king, they can't unless they have the permission of His Royal Highness the eldest prince, or if they are summoned by the king himself.
This kind of behavior made His Royal Highness the Second Prince and His Royal Highness the Second Prince's mother quite dissatisfied.
The king has not died yet, and His Royal Highness the Great Prince has taken all the power into his own hands, and he really doesn't care about anyone else.
His Royal Highness the eldest prince had already begun to prepare for turmoil, and he didn't care about the two of them for a day. If he didn't show enough courage now, there would be no way to suppress the possible turmoil.
The princess and the most powerful marquis in the court also have some cousin relationships. Although the Hou Ye is not very good at the court, because there is a princess in the middle of the mediation, the situation on the surface is still more favorable to His Royal Highness the eldest prince.
Ling Xiaoning heard the news that the king had almost had an accident, and he was also worried for a while, not knowing when that day would come.
This is really a particularly torturous thing, and it even makes people think very immorally that the king simply died all at once, so that people don't have to worry and panic all day long.
"Help, help me!"
A palace maid's cry of pain came from outside the palace.
Ling Xiaoning couldn't help but walk to the palace gate with some curiosity and looked outside.
A palace maid dressed in white fell to the ground, with a lot of bright red blood on her body, as if she had been seriously injured.
"What's going on, isn't it possible that someone is so bold now that they dare to commit murder and evil in the palace during the day?"
The guard bowed his head slightly, his voice low. "His Royal Highness the eldest prince said that Miss, it is better for you to leave these idle things in the palace alone, our first priority is to protect the safety of Miss."
"You people really don't have any conscience, I order you to bring that palace maid over to me to see what is going on. If you don't listen to me, I'll go back and say to His Royal Highness the Prince, you bully me, see what you do!" β
