Nangong Xiu said, "Imperial Father. "Your son …"

Nangong Chen waved his hand and said, "You don't need to say anymore! I understand. You won't hurt your brothers, but they've plotted for so many years to become the crown prince, and you're the one who did it. The only way for them to give up hope is to move them to the border region! "

Nangong Xiu asked, "Imperial Father. Can you bear it? "

Nangong Chen did not say anything. After hesitating for a while, he said with determination, "Xiu-Er! He had to be a good emperor. Everything had to be considered from the perspective of the general situation. He had to not be sentimental! This is royal father's greatest hope for you! You are a smart and calm child, but you are too emotional! This is a fatal weakness of an emperor! "

Nangong Chen's words seemed to be a little alarmist, but Nangong Xiu seemed to understand something. In the past few days, after he became the crown prince, he realized that there were too many things that he couldn't take on.

"Father. May I ask you a question? "

"Go ahead."

"In royal father's heart, who was willing to become Crown Prince?"

"That's over!"

"Father. This son just wants to know more about royal father's opinion towards us brothers. "

Nangong Xiu pursued Nangong Chen's thoughts. After all, he wouldn't last long as the Crown Prince. He would die half a year later! At that time, the imperial government would need to elect another crown prince to succeed the throne.

He wanted to know who was the ideal candidate for the crown prince in Nangong Chen's heart. In the future, he would either intentionally or unintentionally support that person so that after he died, that person could successfully become the crown prince.

Nangong Chen hesitated for a long time before finally opening his mouth, "Lie'er!"

Nangong Xiu was somewhat surprised and asked, "Where is second brother?"

Nangong Chen said, "Whether it is in terms of achievements or intelligence, your second brother is above your big brother! Once upon a time, I actually considered letting him succeed the throne! However, in the factional battles between the First and Second Princes, the two of them had constantly tried to take revenge on each other, causing both sides' weaknesses and weaknesses to be exposed little by little! All these years, I have witnessed it all, but I have not put a stop to it. That is because I want to see how far the two of them can go in battle! "

Nangong Xiu said, "Father, do you want to see who will be the final winner?"

Nangong Chen said, "To become an Emperor requires a lot of qualities! And the most important thing about it was its power! He was strong enough! Only a true expert would be able to protect this foundation! Tell me, if your big brother and second brother were to allow a match to occur, who would be the final victor? "

Nangong Xiu said, "Second brother!"

Nangong Chen said, "Why?"

Nangong Xiu said, "Second brother knows how to use benefits to win people's hearts, while big brother is using prestige to win people's hearts. Originally, big brother had his illustrious military exploits ahead of him, but now he was magnanimous in the end. Thus, there were many people who supported him. "But as we fight openly and secretly, big brother will reveal more and more of his weakness. Even if he doesn't have any weakness, second brother will also create a weakness for him. This way, big brother's prestige will continue to decline …"

Nangong Chen said, "Continue."

Nangong Xiu said, "Just like the incident where you injured a field officer in the military camp! This son feels that there is something more to it! "

Nangong Chen said, "That matter cannot be blamed on your second brother, it was your mother's fault!"

Nangong Xiu said, "Is it mufei?"

He was not surprised. Although he hadn't expected that Xiao Fei would risk her life to frame the prince, he wasn't too surprised. He had clearly seen how many things Xiao Fei had done for his second brother, Nangong Yan!

Nangong Chen said, "Empress Chen has done many shameful things and your mufei Xiao Fei has also done many of them. What grieves me is that the scheming in this harem far surpasses that of the imperial court! Forget it, if you don't say this matter first, you can continue to share your views on it! "

He was extremely disappointed with both Empress Chen and Xiao Fei, and hadn't been interested in the two of them recently. The noble person that he doted on earlier was also ignored by him!

Now, he would rather find two palace maids to serve him than to pamper his concubine!

Perhaps this old emperor was gradually getting tired of scheming against them!

Nangong Xiu said, "Second brother is bribing people with benefits! Everyone's heart was filled with greed and desire! The purpose of survival was either fame or profit! Thus, the number of people supporting second brother increased. This way, the final victor will definitely be second brother! "

Actually, Nangong Xiu had already understood that the First Prince, Nangong Lie, was not a material for becoming an emperor!

Back then, he was angry over a woman and beat up his little brother. Furthermore, he even stabbed him, almost causing him to die from injustice! For the sake of a mere Beitang Bell, he had actually lost his head and lost his sense of propriety. How could he possibly be someone who had achieved great things?

He suddenly thought of Bing Ying, how much better was he compared to Nangong Lie?

Perhaps, he wasn't suitable to be the crown prince!

It was very dangerous to say the word 'crown prince', but only a person who had become a crown prince would understand how hard it was to become a crown prince!

Then, what about becoming emperor?

Nangong Xiu suddenly felt some sympathy for Nangong Chen. His entire life was a court, yet there was no one close to him, so why was his sons fighting over a favor? His two favorite concubines attacked each other just to obtain a favor!

Even Nangong Xiu, who was the most filial and honest son, had a deep grudge against him!

Is this the end of being an emperor?

After Nangong Chen heard his words, he praised, "Your analysis is correct! "You are still young, but your consideration is much more mature than a lot of people who have experienced a lot in the government. It seems that I can let you deal with this crown prince!"

Letting go of his hand for you to deal with, Nangong Xiu did not care about these words. A few days later, he understood that when Nangong Chen said these words, he had already made a clear decision in his heart …

Nangong Chen continued, "When your second brother becomes the Emperor, he might leave behind a reputation for generations! But, he definitely has the ability to protect our Nan Gong Family, this foundation! "

Nangong Xiu finally understood his father's thoughts.

So, he had always wanted to make his second brother, Nangong Yan, the emperor!

Nangong Chen said, "This Emperor once gave up on this idea! But, your elder brother has truly disappointed us! Your third brother is too incompetent! Your second brother's heart is a bit more vicious. He became the emperor, and when I die, all of you brothers will be brutally killed! "If we want the mountains and the rivers, we want our sons. I've struggled in my heart for a long time, but …"

His voice stopped.

Nangong Xiu knew that Nangong Chen's final decision was to sacrifice his son to save Jiang Shan!

His expression was indifferent. He was not the least bit surprised by this result.

However, he was not surprised at all when he found out what Nangong Chen was thinking!

Even if it was his wife and son, they couldn't do it. Now that Nangong Xiu was the crown prince, he had to inherit his throne in the future. He could finally completely trust someone, Nangong Xiu was now on the same side as him!

Nangong Xiu was his only friend! He was the only one he could believe and pour out his heart to!

Therefore, he had spoken out all the words in his heart that were hard to come by a chance!

This was the first time in twenty years that the father and son pair had spoken so deeply to each other.

Nangong Xiu suddenly thought of something and said, "Father! This son has another matter to report to royal father! "

Nangong Chen raised his head to look at the sky and said, "Hurry up and say it! It's almost time for the morning assembly! "

Nangong Xiu said, "Perhaps in the next few days, Imperial Father will hear of it. I might as well confess!"

Nangong Chen said, "It sounds quite serious, what is it?"

Nangong Xiu said, "Your son has obtained a weapon. This... "It's not an ordinary weapon, but …"

"Take a look for yourself."

Nangong Chen interrupted him and took a piece of newspaper from the bedside and handed it to Nangong Xiu.

Nangong Xiu took a look at the newspaper and saw that the front page of Jianghu had reported in detail about him and the magic gun. There was even a short paragraph after that and it revealed Nangong Wudi's future achievements …

Nangong Xiu said, "So Imperial Father already knows about it!"

Nangong Chen said: "My son has such good prospects, I can't even be happy about it! And why blame you? I had thought that the news reported in the newspaper was fake, but since you've admitted it yourself, I am relieved! With the protection of the demon spear, no one will dare to touch you, you crown prince! "

Nangong Xiu curiously asked, "Imperial Father, don't you worry that this child will follow in his footsteps and enter the path of evil, as stated in the newspaper?"

Nangong Chen said, "Regarding the matter of Nangong Wudi, I have also heard about it from my father. Back then, he was not in the mood to be the emperor and was obsessed with martial arts. However, the Emperor who succeeded him was afraid that his martial arts might be too strong, so he used a petty character's heart to pressure and persecute him. That was the reason why he was forced to rebel and go on a rampage in the southern border! Otherwise, for a great prince to be able to obtain the highest under the heavens as well as the highest martial arts skills in the world, how could he betray the Nangong Family and create a Demonic Sect? "

Nangong Xiu listened carefully. This was the first time she had heard of such a thing!

Nangong Chen said, "Back then when the successor emperor suppressed Nangong Wudi, wasn't that Nangong Chen's grandfather, Nangong Xiu's great-grandfather?"

Nangong Chen said, "You are smart and calm, and now you are the noble crown prince, the future emperor will be yours! Naturally, you wouldn't be as depressed and frustrated as Nangong Wudi was back then, going berserk after being persecuted. Magic equipment also depended on whose hand it was in! If you have enough powerful martial arts to control this magic equipment, I can actually relax, you can firmly defend the Nangong Family's foundation! I don't regret forcing this crown prince onto you! "Heh heh, that's quite strange. Your big brother and second brother have both fought so hard to become the crown prince, yet you've still failed to do so many times. Instead, I've forced you to become the crown prince!"

Nangong Xiu said, "Since royal father doesn't mind, then it's good!"

Nangong Chen said, "Of course I don't mind! When I saw the newspaper saying that the Crown Prince had great kung fu skills and was wielding a demonic weapon, he appeared out of nowhere and swept away the heavens, I was extremely happy and I felt like I was returning back to my previous life …

"When the time comes for Zhen to be in high spirits …"
