Chapter 348: Ghost Face and Snake Heart

"Old lady, no matter what, it's impossible for us to directly monitor the movements of the princes, right? Keeping an eye on weekdays is already on the side of His Royal Highness the Great Prince!" Seeing that Sima De was a little out of shape, the Southern Commander Han Leng reminded with an unhappy face.

Being reminded by Han Leng like this, Sima De reacted and quickly changed his words and explained: "Forgive me, the old man has no other meaning, but although His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince has always been low-key, don't forget the vision from heaven when he was born, and Emperor Yan also pointed out that this son can be the duty of success, and it can be said that His Royal Highness the Great Prince is the biggest opponent." ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded slightly, and at present, among the princes of the royal family, the princes who are qualified to compete for the position of the crown prince, as Sima De analyzed, only the eldest prince Lin Xuan, the third prince Lin Dian, and the eighth prince Lin Dian are dark.

The advantage of the eldest prince Lin Xuan is that he is the eldest son, coupled with his calm heart, his own qualifications and talents are not low, although he is not as terrifying as today's Yan Emperor, but the thirty-year-old peak cultivation of the royal realm, under the aura of heaven and earth today, even if you look at the top forces on the mainland, it is rare, not to mention that the princes in the royal family have not yet been baptized by the dragon vein, once they are baptized, I am afraid that they will be able to break through to the imperial realm in an instant, which is enough to take over the position of the crown prince of the Great Yan Dynasty.

In fact, in terms of qualifications and talents, the third prince Lin Dian is actually the most outstanding one among the princes, the innate thunder spirit body, before the baptism of the dragon vein, the cultivation is already in the early stage of the imperial realm, and the strongest among the princes deserves to be, so in the eyes of everyone, in fact, the threat of the third prince Lin Dian to the eldest prince is the greatest.

After all, throughout the ages, every quasi-power lord is either a person who is justifiable, or his own strength has far surpassed that of his peers, and there are even signs of catching up with the generation in power.

Compared with the previous two, the Eighth Emperor Lin Dian did not seem to be the same in the eyes of everyone, and his actions were too low-key, so that now that everyone thinks about it, no one knows the cultivation realm of the Eighth Emperor Lin Dark.

"If you really want to talk about movement, it's not like it's nothing. After a moment of silence, Yan Qiang, the Eastern Commander, said with some hesitation.

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and then they all turned their eyes to Yan Qiang, the Eastern Commander, and the Grand Master Sima De even said in a loud voice: "What did the Great Commander Yan think, you might as well say it directly, since everyone is gathered here, they are all on the side of His Royal Highness the Great Prince, and there are some things that don't need to be too scrupulous." ”

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yan Qiang thought for a while and said: "This matter was actually accidentally said by a friend of mine, my friend is an inspector of Qin Tianjian, and he just returned to the imperial capital some time ago, at that time, he and I were discussing all kinds of strange things in the imperial capital, and when I talked about it, I talked about Lin Dark, the eighth prince. ”

"I said that the Eighth Prince Lin Dian has been too low-key all these years, and I feel that the world is about to forget him, but my friend smiled, and then said that he had seen the figure of the Eighth Prince Lin Dian in the Qin Heavenly Prison. ”

"Qin Tianjian, can't it?"

Wang Zizhan questioned: "Although Qin Tianjian is a branch of the imperial family, since the founding of the Great Yan Dynasty, for thousands of years, all the princes associated with Qin Tianjian, no matter how talented they are and how good their qualifications are, they cannot be made the crown prince or even become the Yan Emperor. ”

"If the current situation is purely about the odds, Lin Dark, the eighth prince, also has a one-third chance of being made the crown prince, which even we can see, as a party, Lin Dian cannot be unclear, and at this time, it is tantamount to digging his own grave if he has a relationship with Qin Tianjian. ”

"You mean that my friend of the Inspector is lying to me?" Hearing this, Yan Qiang, the Eastern Commander, turned pale and said coldly: "Since Patriarch Wang doesn't believe what he said, why don't you tell Patriarch Wang, what information has your Wang family gotten about Eighth Prince Lin Dark?"

"Nonsense, as the largest family in the imperial capital, how could my Wang family do anything to spy on the prince's mansion, Commander Yan, please be cautious!" Wang Zizhan raised his eyebrows and said coldly.

"Eighth Prince Lin Dian naturally can't take the initiative to go to Qin Tianjian, but what if someone asks him to go?"

Seeing that Yan Qiang and Wang Zizhan were about to fight, the calm words suddenly sounded in everyone's ears, but Han Leng, the southern commander who had been silent for a while, suddenly raised his head and looked at Taishi Sima De with blazing eyes.

"Commander Han might as well say it bluntly, there are no outsiders here. Sima De said meaningfully, and at the same time glared at Wang Zizhan and Yan Qiang fiercely, since everyone is for His Royal Highness the Great Prince, why do they want to chase their own people to the death?

"I've always wondered about one thing, I believe that what Yan Qiang said is true, but as Patriarch Wang said, why? It's unreasonable!" Han Leng thought for a while and suddenly asked Yan Qiang: "Brother Yan, if there are two paths to go in front of you, one is a dead road and the other is a living road, which one will you take?"

"Does this still need to be asked? Isn't it obvious that everyone will choose the way of life, who will choose the way of death!" Yan Qiang rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"Yes, no one would want to go to the dead end, but Brother Yan, Patriarch Wang, Old Lady, Rong Han asked another question. Han sneered and said, "But if a person is indeed walking on a dead end, and he himself knows that it is a dead end, then why would this person still walk on this dead end?"

"This ......"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and then they thought about it. After a few breaths, Wang Zizhan was the first to react, and said seriously: "If it is really as Commander Han said, then there is only one explanation that Wang can think of, three words, I have to." ”

"Hahaha, I have to? What kind of explanation is this? I have to...... Have to...... Cannot...... Not?"

Yan Qiang laughed at first, but the more he recited these three words, the more serious his face became, and in the end, there was no smile on his whole face, obviously he had thought of something.

"What does Commander Han mean is that someone asked the Eighth Emperor Lin Dian to go to the Qin Heavenly Prison, and for this person's words, the Eighth Emperor Lin Dian had to choose to obey?" Taishi Sima De said with a gloomy face, and he already had some guesses about that person's identity in his heart.

"It seems that the old lady has already thought of the identity of that person, so let's go down and verify the old lady's guess!"

Han Leng hesitated for a moment and said, "Before, the royal patriarch said that it was absolutely impossible for the Wang family to do anything to monitor the prince's mansion, and Han believed this, because in fact, monitoring the prince's mansion was a long-term task entrusted by Emperor Yan to our five generals. Moreover, Emperor Yan made it clear to the princes about this matter, but he didn't directly use the word surveillance. ”

"It's just that as several princes gave up their qualifications to become the crown prince and even the future Emperor Yan, our surveillance task has slowly become easier, and the reason why Han said these things is because Lin Yan, the eighth prince, is the target of Han's surveillance. ”

"And just a few days ago, there was a person who never thought that someone would have entered the mansion of the Eighth Emperor Lin Dark, although this person was dressed in night clothes, but Han still recognized the true identity of this person, he was the palace chamberlain and eunuch!"

"Hey!"

As soon as Han Leng's words were finished, Wang Zizhan took a sharp breath and muttered in disbelief: "If it is said that the eunuch Wang went to the mansion of the Eighth Emperor Prince Lin Dark, and he did not go in a righteous and bright way, then wouldn't it mean that the person who made the Eighth Emperor Lin Dian have to come into contact with Qin Tianjian was actually Emperor Yan?"

"And more importantly, Emperor Yan doesn't want this matter to be known by anyone, including me, otherwise Eunuch Wang can enter the Eighth Emperor's mansion from the main gate in a dignified and bright manner, instead of wearing a night robe and go through the back door. Han Leng added solemnly.

"Old lady, what can I do about this? What does Emperor Yan mean?"

Wang Zizhan was puzzled: "If Emperor Yan's move is to make the Eighth Emperor Lin Dian withdraw from the battle for the crown prince, then the Wang Eunuch can go forward openly, but since Emperor Yan let the Eighth Emperor Lin Dian contact Qin Tianjian, but he doesn't want this matter to be known by others, can it be said that Emperor Yan is already interested in the Eighth Emperor Prince Lin Dark?"

Wang Zizhan turned his head to look at Sima De, but saw that the latter had already closed his eyes, and couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Old lady?

"Don't think about it, he wants to attack Qin Tianjian. Sima De instantly seemed to be ten years old, and said weakly: "Wait and see, it won't be long before a will be issued from the palace, Qin Tianjian to supervise the world...... It's so powerful!"

As soon as Sima De's words were finished, he heard a commotion outside the hall, everyone's faces changed, and Yan Qiang, the eastern commander, took the lead in getting up and walking towards the outside of the hall, scolding and scolding in his mouth: "This commander wants to see who has the courage to make trouble in the Taishi Mansion!"

"Hey, who dares to make trouble in this Taishi Mansion!"

Before Yan Qiang stepped out of the hall, an extremely feminine and shrill voice came into everyone's ears very clearly, and when a slender figure appeared in front of everyone, Yan Qiang subconsciously retreated to his seat, his face was extremely unnatural, if someone took a closer look, they would find that Yan Qiang's entire face was twitching at an extremely fast frequency, obviously terrified to the extreme.

It was Sima De, who had always been as calm as the old lady, and his complexion changed slightly the moment he heard this voice, and when the slender figure completely appeared in front of everyone, Sima De knew that his guess had come true, because he had already recognized this slender figure, which was the most trusted chamberlain of the previous generation of Emperor Yan, the Yang Ghost nicknamed the ghost-faced snake heart, Yang Eunuch!
