He was tired of having to deal with all his sons.
It was time for him to find a successor and train him.
Currently, only Ki Chien-chul and Qi Xiaoze could be nurtured.
Qi Xiaoze, on the other hand, had always shown that he wanted to stay away from the court.
In the past, the Emperor would have to think twice. But now, the only one he could use was Ki Chien-chul.
The eldest son was dead, the second son was dedicated to protecting the country, the third son was unreliable and always thought about beautiful scenery, the fourth son was finished, the fifth son was going to become a monk, the seventh son was still young and could not be used, and the ninth son was just a little bean.
So, only Ki Chien-chul was reliable.
"Did you notice a problem?"
Wei Ziyao thought for a moment.
"What problem?" Ki Chien-chul did not get her point.
"Don't you think that even if Qi Minghao was not smart, he was not that stupid? But in just half a year, he killed himself and even implicated the Empress. That's too stupid. "
"Indeed." Ki Chien-chul nodded: "Even if the fourth son was useless, he would not make mistakes and displease the Emperor. But now, it's like he's gone crazy."
"There's one more thing … Look at the power struggle in the court, there are only two people who want the throne. One is the Crown Prince, the other is the eldest son, Qi Minghao. But the Crown Prince is dead, and so is the fourth son. Now, it seems that the biggest beneficiary is you."
Wei Ziyao's eyes widened. "Qi Qianche, don't tell me you're the mastermind behind all this?"
"You really dare to guess." Ki Chien-chul glared at Wei Ziyao: "If I want the throne, there are many ways. There's no need to hurt my eldest brother. I didn't want to be the Emperor before, but after my eldest brother's death, I feel that these brothers are useless. If I shrink back, what will happen to the Northern Qin Kingdom?"
Wei Ziyao had always known that he felt that these brothers were not as reliable as him.
"Once upon a time, I did yearn for the throne, high and mighty, controlling the life and death of everyone in my hands. Which man wouldn't want to sit in that position? But knowing you, I feel that there's nothing good about that position. It's lonely at the top. Once you're there, you're destined to be lonely for the rest of your life. So what if you have true love? Favoritism in the harem is the most unacceptable. Therefore, love and the throne are destined to be incompatible. "
"You sound like I'm the one who made you lose your ambition."
Although she complained, Wei Ziyao still felt sweet inside.
What she wanted was never the position of Empress. What was so fun about being the mother of the world?
There was no freedom at all.
The current situation was pretty good.
.....
The night passed in silence. The next morning, Wang Fei Xian's rewards arrived.
There were also many people who came to congratulate him, but they were all stopped by Wei Ziyao.
Right now, she was like a mother hen, protecting her chick that had just hatched. No one was allowed to come close.
There was another important point. Today, Ki Chien-chul was going to work at the Ministry of Justice.
He had to leave early in the morning and come back late at night to worry about some cases. She felt that this was a golden opportunity.
If he did well, the position of Crown Prince would be his.
Originally, she thought that since it was her husband's first day at work, she would prepare a table of good wine and dishes and wait for him to come back.
But unexpectedly, that afternoon, Qi Xiaoze actually came and invited her to the hunting ground.
He said that all the soldiers in the army wanted to see the beauty of the Goddess of War.
