Prince Yu took a step back and looked at his son, whom he no longer knew. His lips moved for a long time before he finally asked, "Do you want to kill your father?"

"Father, I told you long ago not to force me to do something that I'm not willing to do!" King Xuan's gaze turned sharp, "Right now, the entire palace is under your son's control. You no longer have any path of retreat!"

Prince Yu took a deep breath. "Are you really planning to rebel?"

"It's imperative, I have no choice!"

"So what did you bring me here for?" Sensing how terrifying King Xuan was, Prince Yu felt his hands and feet go ice-cold. A light snow had just fallen, and the Imperial Palace was filled with a thick chill late into the night. However, the coldest feeling was still Prince Yu's heart.

Duke Xuan laughed sinisterly, "I've said it before, after all, we're still father and son. I don't want to bear the burden of my father's slaying reputation, so I need you to cooperate with me."

"Hahahaha …" Prince Yu raised his head to the sky and laughed loudly. "You've already killed your brother. How can you expect me to work with you at this time of day? "

King Xuan didn't seem to care about his father at all. He raised his eyebrows and said, "As long as you're willing to support me as the emperor, I can let bygones be bygones. When I become the emperor, you'll be the emperor. Why not do that?"

"You're wrong!" Prince Yu calmly said, "I am just a prince. I have no say in who will become the emperor. Everything depends on the emperor."

"The Emperor's meaning?" King Xuan snorted coldly. "Your majesty's meaning isn't up to you? Even though I didn't read the edict, I was certain that it was King Rong. What virtue or ability did he have to be the crown prince? If it weren't for you adding fuel to the fire, would the Emperor have set him up? The position of crown prince should belong to me, but I hate you all for being too biased and looking down on me. Since you all are ruthless, then don't blame me for being unjust! "

"You are hopeless! I only hate why I gave birth to a son like you! " Prince Yu glanced at the Buddha statue, his heart wrenching.

King Xuan put down the nine condors above his head and strode to Prince Yu, "I'm afraid that you have not hated me now, but you have hated me for a very long time. I only ask if you're willing to cooperate with me? "

Prince Yu pressed his lips together and firmly shook his head.

King Xuan raised his head and looked at the Buddha statue, asking faintly, "You must think this through clearly. If you don't want to cooperate with me, you should be clear about the consequences, right?"

Prince Yu's eyes didn't contain the slightest bit of fear as he slowly said, "Ancient man Yun: 30 stand, 40 stand, 50 stand by fate. If you are willing to listen to your father's advice, you will have the time to return. If you insist on doing so, then there is nothing your father can do about it. If you want your father to support you, that is impossible! "

"Good, very good." King Xuan laughed again and shook his head slightly, "I already knew that you loved Fourth Brother the most. You still want to protect him even at this point in time, is my son worth mentioning in your eyes? Even now, you still do not know how to repent. In that case, don't blame me for being merciless! "

Prince Yu sighed and shook his head, pacing back and forth in the buddhist hall. My biggest mistake was bearing such an unfilial son like you. Have you ever thought about it, you are this king's own son, and I am your father. Could it be that in your heart, the throne is more important than family love or the throne is more important? "

King Xuan turned around, no longer looking at Prince Yu. He answered word by word, "In my heart, there is nothing more important than the throne, even my life!"

Prince Yu coughed lightly and looked helplessly at King Xuan. "Your majesty's body is unwell and there isn't much time left. However, it definitely won't be you who will be inheriting the throne. It's best that you give up on this."

King Xuan's pupils began to contract, "Fang Zinan!"

"Why do you ask?"

"I really don't understand. Why can't I compare to Fang Zinan?" Amongst all my brothers, who could surpass me in terms of governing the nation? Anyway, it doesn't matter who's in the testamentary edict anymore. What's important is that I'll go and force the emperor to abdicate right now … " King Xuan then sneered at Prince Yu, "However, there is one thing I still need to thank royal father. I heard that it was you who suggested to the Emperor to send Fang Zinan to help the Kingdom of Dongyu. If he was in the capital, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to control all the troops in the capital so smoothly …" He laughed a few times, "It's a pity that he's not as good as the heavens. Never in your dreams did you think that Fourth Brother would be sent out. When he returned, there was already a world-shaking change in the court. The person who sat on the throne was me!" After saying that, he laughed out loud complacently.

Prince Yu looked at the presumptuous smile on King Xuan's face and sincerely said, "You're already a prince, why fight over things that don't belong to you?"

"What do you mean something that doesn't belong to me?" "If you have to blame something, you can only blame the Emperor for not having a son of your own. I thought that I could only be a prince for the rest of my life, but it was because he lacked the ability that he needed a prince like me to inherit his power. This is my good fortune, and also my good fortune!" As he spoke to here, he stared at Prince Yu and asked directly, "Royal father, when you were a prince, did Hou ever think of becoming the emperor?"

Prince Yu smiled contemptuously, "No, I can tell you honestly that I have never thought of being the emperor!"

King Xuan gave a cold snort in disdain, "That's because you're too weak, too useless!"

"Your highness should be fair and square, and not do whatever it takes like you! You are not worthy at all! " Prince Yu completely ignored life and death, without even the slightest bit of fear.

King Xuan took a deep breath. "Then I'll prove to you that I can absolutely be a good emperor."

"You're too conceited. You think you have the upper hand? If you kill the emperor and plan to seize the throne, then why are you so convinced by the masses? How could you keep the truth from the people of the world? Also, with Prince Rong's army in your possession, I'm afraid you won't even be able to sit on the throne and your army will be at the gates of the city. " Prince Yu walked up to King Xuan, still trying to persuade him. "Third Brother, in truth, you and Fourth Brother are blood brothers. What's the difference between the two of you?"

Emperor Xuan turned his head and said through gritted teeth, "Other than me, no one else can ascend the throne to become emperor. Those who obstruct me will only die!"

"Are you still going to fight to the death?"

"I don't care!" King Xuan raised his voice. "I only ask if you're willing to cooperate with me. Don't speak so much nonsense! Now, for the last time, will you help me? "

"You're delusional!" Prince Yu said as he slapped him across the face. Before he could even touch King Xuan, the latter firmly gripped his wrist and pushed him back, causing him to stagger a few steps and fall to the ground. Prince Yu coughed and struggled to his feet.

"I already said, if you don't cooperate with me, you will die! Let me ask you again, will you help me or not? "

Prince Yu was adamant and refused to let go. "There's no need to waste your breath. This King will definitely not help you!"

The light in King Xuan's eyes grew longer as he took out a sword from his bosom and approached Prince Yu step by step. "I've said it before, if you stop me from ascending the throne, then you'll die!"

Only now did Prince Yu's eyes reveal a terrified expression, his mouth half open. He truly couldn't believe that King Xuan would really act against him!
