Many things were predestined in the eyes of the nobles.
The Second Prince.
After being tested with the Royal Martial Soul, many people thought that he was already the Crown Prince, or even the Emperor.
Therefore, even the Shi Family and Feng Family of the four major families of Twilight City … had to give in to the Li Family.
Otherwise, how could Li Aofeng from the Li Family be worthy of their attention?
Every family had their own prodigies, and Li Aofeng was not the first, nor would he be the last.
Xia Ziling knew that if she wanted to become the Crown Prince, it would be like … a foolish old man trying to move a mountain.
This was a very stupid thing to do.
However, she was smart enough to do it.
Was she trying to regain her power?
Not really.
She just wanted to clear her mother's name!
This was what a daughter should do.
"Mm."
Xia Ziling nodded in response to the Monarch's question.
However, she did not seem to be surprised.
Li Zhengping was the Grand Marshal of the Duchy. How could he just watch him ascend to the throne without doing anything?
This was definitely impossible.
"Sigh …"
The Monarch sighed.
He regretted sending Freedom King to the frontlines. Now, when Freedom King returns, this would be a foregone conclusion.
As long as the Second Prince became the Crown Prince, Freedom King would not be able to change anything.
Killing the Crown Prince was tantamount to treason!
"Why don't you go to the backyard and cultivate with Cheng Zu? You don't have to care about what happens outside."
As a father, this was the only thing he could do for his daughter … to save her life.
"Father, I … I don't want to give up!"
However, Xia Ziling raised her head and bit her lip, a stubborn look on her face.
She still had one last trump card.
It was the trump card that Qin Yichen had asked her to prepare!
"Hmm?"
The Monarch looked at his daughter in confusion.
Now, facing Li Zhengping, who was at the city gates, and that group of indifferent rich and noble families, even he, as the monarch, had no way to deal with them. What could Xia Ziling, a princess without any real power, do?
"Dankai is not allowed to interfere with government affairs …"
He seemed to have thought of something and advised Xia Ziling again.
He had been secretly paying attention to Xia Ziling's actions. Of course, he knew who she was close to.
Qin Yichen.
This person was probably a thorn in the side of the Li Clan, and they wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Right now, he might not even be able to protect himself.
Just as the Sovereign had expected, the door to Qin Yichen's alchemy room was kicked open.
"Come out, little thief!"
It was a young voice, but it was very domineering.
It was obvious that the owner of the voice was a spoiled person.
Qin Yichen was in no hurry as he finished refining the pills in the furnace. After storing them into his ring, he tidied up his clothes and walked out.
There were two groups of people outside his door.
One of them was President Lin, who had disappeared after the alchemy battle. Standing in front of him was a young man in luxurious clothes. He was fair and clean, and looked to be around twenty years old.
Behind President Lin, there were also many alchemists.
However, most of these Alchemists were born in various famous and noble families.
On the other side was President Hai.
The number of alchemists standing behind President Hai was two to three times the number of alchemists.
At this moment, they were glaring angrily at President Lin's group.
"Hey, isn't this our President Lin?"
Qin Yichen stared at President Lin with a smile. His voice was playful, but there was a flash of coldness in the depths of his eyes.
He had treated President Lin as a founding member of the Dankai. That was why he had let him off during the alchemy battle. However, he did not expect President Lin to be so stubborn.
President Lin felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him. He averted his eyes and did not dare to look him in the eye.
"Are you the one who bewitched that witch Xia Ziling to compete with me for the position of Crown Prince?"
The fair and clean young man walked over and sized up Qin Yichen. He muttered, "You look so ordinary. I thought you had three heads and six arms."
His identity was obvious. He was the son of Queen Li … the second prince of the royal family.
"Of course I don't have three heads and six arms. Aren't those who have three heads and six arms from the Li family?"
Qin Yichen chuckled and teased.
"Haha …"
Instantly, the alchemists behind President Hai burst into laughter.
They were alchemists. They did not need to beg the rich and powerful. On the contrary, only the rich and powerful needed to beg them.
"How dare you speak so rudely in front of me?"
The second prince was stunned. He raised his hand to slap Qin Yichen.
Slap!
The sound of the slap caused the surroundings to fall into silence. Everyone's eyes widened.
The one who was hit was the second prince.
At this moment, the second prince covered half of his face and looked at Qin Yichen in disbelief.
"You … How dare you hit me?"
He pointed at Qin Yichen with a trembling finger.
"Haha."
Qin Yichen rolled his eyes.
Damn it, is he retarded?
He obviously dared to hit the second prince.
Was there a need to ask?
However, the surrounding people all sucked in a breath of cold air.
After all, this was the second prince of the Duchy. Moreover, it was very likely that he would become the ruler of the Duchy!
Qin Yichen dared to hit him!
Even President Hai frowned with worry in his eyes.
He had heard that Li Zhengping had brought his troops here. The current situation was very unfavorable for Qin Yichen.
"I'm going to kill you!"
A powerful aura suddenly spread out from the second prince's body. Just as he was about to attack Qin Yichen, President Lin held him back.
"Second Prince, this is Dankai."
President Lin reminded him.
If the second prince destroyed Dankai, he would not be able to become the Crown Prince.
Destroying Dankai was equivalent to offending all the alchemists in the Duchy!
Even the Imperial Family could not afford to offend him. Moreover, he was only a prince.
"Damn it!"
Although the Second Prince was extremely angry, he forcibly suppressed the imposing manner that he had raised.
Although he was spoiled since childhood, it did not mean that he was brainless.
The Imperial Family was full of intrigue. He knew what was important and what was not.
"Kid, when I become the Crown Prince, I'll get rid of you first!"
He glanced coldly at Qin Yichen, covered his swollen face, and turned to leave.
"Stop right there!"
Qin Yichen's voice was heard. After they stopped, Qin Yichen said calmly, "Did I say that you can leave?"
"Hmm?"
The second prince was amused. "Are you trying to keep me here?"
"Smart."
Qin Yichen gave him a look of approval. "Since you're here, stay."
"Kid, do you really think that I'm a pushover?"
