Yun Yang's expression changed when he heard the explanation. This was the so-called reason!
The emperor had actually let it slip!
Furthermore, it had been leaked to someone who should never have known – His Highness the crown prince, the party involved!
"At that time, there was no one else around, and the nearest person was several feet away. Father's words were very vague … No one heard it except for me. But at that time, I was stunned again, just like the moment when I accidentally saw Big Brother."
"No, I was just panicking and at a loss. Hearing father's words, I felt like I was struck by lightning, unable to calm down."
Yun Yang sighed. "You don't have to go on."
He finally understood. Everything was clear now!
The emperor … had always had such a plan in his heart.
Then it was no wonder!
Honestly, this plan was easy to execute. As long as the world was unified and the world was completed, this world would belong to Yutang's territory. Then, the eldest prince's identity as one of the Nine Supremes would no longer be a secret. The fact that the eldest prince was the leader of the Nine Supremes, Supreme Earth, would be a bright light in Yutang's conquest of the world.
At that time, all he had to do was to issue an imperial edict at the right time, stating the reason why the news of the First Prince's sudden death was spread all those years ago … After making such a huge sacrifice, it was completely logical for the First Prince to return and ascend to the throne today.
None of Yutang's subjects and people would object to it!
There was only one person who was an exception – His Highness the crown prince, the heir to the east palace on the surface!
It was then that His Highness the crown prince knew about His Majesty's plan. His title as the crown prince was only a decoration on the surface.
Yun Yang heaved a long sigh.
Looking down at the old and desolate crown prince, he was speechless and conflicted.
Should he kill or not kill the crown prince?
To kill or not to kill, it all depended on Yun Yang's decision. Logically speaking, the crown prince deserved to die for what he had done. However, if one were to consider his position and position, his choice would be detrimental to the country and disloyal to the emperor, but it was understandable for him. It was only right for the heir of the royal family to do whatever it took to ascend to the throne. It was only right that the winner took all.
Come to think of it, it was the crown prince's downfall today, but if he had perished at Tianxuan Cliff that day and had not saved the poisoned Emperor of Yutang, the position of the next emperor of Yutang might have long fallen to the crown prince. By then, whether Yutang would be annexed or destroyed by other countries, His Highness the crown prince would have won the war of succession!
For a moment, Yun Yang's thoughts were a jumbled mess; it was difficult for him to make a decision. In a trance, he felt as if two pairs of eyes were watching him from afar.
"Old Ninth … my brother … is still my brother."
Supreme Earth's words.
Supreme Earth did not say it out loud.
However, since he was willing to make such a sacrifice for his country and family, he probably wouldn't want to see his younger brother die in his own hands, right?
But … what about the other brothers?
"There's still a way out if you want to live." A cold glint flashed across Yun Yang's eyes. His gaze was misty because the eight masked silhouettes seemed to have slipped past his eyes just a moment ago. His decision was made in that instant.
He enunciated each word clearly, "No matter what, you have to die once first before we can talk about the future."
Having been the crown prince for so long, the crown prince naturally understood the deeper meaning behind Yun Yang's words. Without hesitation, he nodded and said, "I … I will follow Young Master Yun's arrangements."
Faking one's death and hiding one's identity to deal with the current situation was the best solution. However, with the crown prince's current capability, it would be difficult to complete it, not to mention the countless hidden dangers.
However, if this plan were to be arranged by Yun Yang, it would be a completely different matter; the success rate would increase tremendously.
At the end of this situation, perhaps His Highness the crown prince of Yutang would perish from this world, but he could continue to live!
At this moment, the crown prince felt that he had understood everything and could feel Yun Yang's kindness and sincerity.
Yun Yang nodded and said nothing more. Watching the crown prince walk out of the Residence of Yun with his back hunched, Yun Yang could clearly feel that this matter had finally come to an end.
This crown prince who had been a decoration in the Empire of Yutang for years, the heir to the eastern palace, was truly disheartened and had no more lingering feelings.
"However …"
"Could it be that I've schemed and schemed so many times just for you to be disheartened?"
Yun Yang stood with his arms behind his back. Smoke flashed across his eyes, eventually turning into a tinge of viciousness. It was an indescribable menace!
Yun Xiaoyao walked out from behind the screen and let out a long sigh.
King Yun could not help but let out the desire to sigh in his heart.
"Yun Yang, what are you doing? What is your ultimate goal after going through so much trouble? "King Xiaoyao looked melancholy and puzzled.
The situation had basically come to an end. Yun Yang had gained a lot from this battle. He had killed Ouyang Xiaoshe, whom he had to kill, and wiped out ninety-nine percent of the world's top-notch assassins. He had even taken the opportunity to knock down the crown prince of Yutang, but the price he had to pay was equally great. Just the dragonhide treasure map alone had made Yun Xiaoyao wringing his hands and sighing endlessly. Especially now that Yun Yang had shifted the attention of the five top-notch assassins to the crown prince, it was a beautiful move, but it inevitably made some people unhappy.
The 'some people' here were probably referring to the Emperor of Yutang and Yun Xiaoyao himself!
"What is it?" Yun Yang asked with a smile.
"Haven't you gone too far? The bloodline of the royal family …" Yun Xiaoyao sighed. "After this battle, the crown prince has been completely wiped out by you. The third prince has also been crippled by you, and he's even been driven mad by fear. The fourth prince, although we're at peace for now, I don't think you'll let him go. "
"There's also the fifth and sixth princes. These two fellows have been recruiting too smoothly during this period of time … Although I don't know the exact situation, I can still be sure that all of this is your doing. I even suspect how many of their so-called subordinates actually listen to them. Can there be even half of them?"
"I'm not surprised that you've targeted the crown prince, the third prince, and even the fourth prince, but the fifth prince is only thirteen this year, and the sixth prince is only twelve." Yun Xiaoyao said, "Aren't you being a little too ruthless when you've already started planning to target them?"
"I didn't hide any of this from you," Yun Yang said faintly.
Yun Xiaoyao sighed. "Yes, if you didn't want me to know, I probably wouldn't even be able to get these tiny clues … So I think you've probably made corresponding arrangements for the other princes, haven't you?"
"It's better to prepare for a rainy day than to nip it in the bud." Yun Yang was still nonchalant about it.
"Everything you've done is to pave the way for Bao 'er, to avoid all possible accidents?" Yun Xiaoyao asked.
"It's true that I've paved the way for him, but it's another matter to avoid all possible accidents," Yun Yang said honestly. "After all, there are still some things that I don't want to do. If I were to do all of them, it would be truly paving the way for him. "
"Oh?" Yun Xiaoyao asked.
Yun Yang waved his arms and said, "Actually, the source of these princes' ambitions all comes from the harem."
Yun Xiaoyao shuddered when he heard him and exclaimed, "What do you want to do? Don't you dare mess around. My royal brother won't let you do as you please! "
