Ye Qinghan and Imperial Concubine Xue looked at each other, their eyes flashing.
Imperial Concubine Xue wanted to find a flaw in Ye Qinghan's words. As long as Ye Qinghan dared to say it out loud, Imperial Concubine Xue's weakness would be in her hands. Even the most favored official would fall from his pedestal because of the Emperor's words.
How could Ye Qinghan give Imperial Concubine Xue this kind of weakness?
Imperial Concubine Xue was smart, but Ye Qinghan was not stupid. In a contest of strength, whoever panicked first would lose.
Ye Qinghan didn't loosen his grip. Xue Concubine was helpless. She had no choice but to be the first to broach this topic because she had no path of retreat. Ye Qinghan, on the other hand, had many choices. He could choose to side with any of the princes and reverse the situation.
"Mister is smart. This concubine appears to be stupid and wants to compete with Mister. I ask for Mister's forgiveness." Imperial Concubine Xue admitted defeat and finally relented.
Ye Qinghan was still leisurely strolling. He shook his head and did not speak.
"If Little Ninth and I submit and support Mister, will Mister spare our lives?" Imperial Concubine Xue asked softly.
"Imperial Concubine Xue is an imperial concubine and His Highness Ninth Prince is a prince. Who would dare to take your lives? As a subject, if a traitor dares to harm the Imperial Concubine and the Imperial Prince, I will naturally protect them with my life! "Ye Qinghan said politely, but he didn't say a single useful word.
"Why does Mister need to guard against this concubine? Can we speak openly? "Imperial Concubine Xue was helpless. She walked in front of Ye Qinghan and looked up at him.
They were less than half a meter apart. Her fragrance was especially charming.
"Imperial Concubine Xue, do you think I am a fool? If you don't think I am a fool, then don't test me like this. It's a waste of time. "Ye Qinghan looked down at Imperial Concubine Xue and spoke coldly.
Imperial Concubine Xue was speechless. It seemed that Ye Qinghan would not relent until he ate the meat. But once he ate the meat, could he spit it out? Would she still be in control?
"Mister, I'll have to trouble you to withdraw the guards. I'll tell you about my trump card." Xue Fei said as she stared at him.
Ye Qinghan snapped his fingers, and the slave guards hidden in the shadows all left. The courtyard's array formation was activated, and the news of the internal discussion would not be leaked.
"Mister, as long as you are willing to help Little Nine ascend the throne, he will be the Emperor, and you will be the Retired Emperor! Even this concubine is yours! "Imperial Concubine Xue said bluntly. She even took the initiative to put Ye Qinghan's hand on her body.
However, Ye Qinghan calmly turned around and avoided their gazes. He had already decided to assist Xue Wuhen, so he could not accept Imperial Concubine Xue and the Ninth Prince. At most, he would have to have one of them submit.
Imperial Concubine Xue's complexion changed. A feeling of humiliation enveloped her entire body. She never thought that Ye Qinghan wouldn't even look at her when she had laid down her bottom line.
"You still haven't seen the situation clearly. The Ninth Prince's power is gone. If you had come to me a few days ago, then perhaps there would have been a chance to turn the tables. But now, it's too late." Ye Qinghan said with certainty.
"As long as Mister is willing to lend me a hand, then I can have His Majesty remove the ban on him. He will still be a favored prince, and he will still have the support of powerful relatives. He will definitely have a better future than the Eighteenth Prince." Imperial Concubine Xue rushed over and hugged Ye Qinghan's waist, bitterly begging.
She was absolutely unwilling to let go of the throne.
"Can't you see it? The Fourth Prince, the Sixth Prince, and the Seventh Prince all have the Ninth Prince's lifeline in their hands. He made a fatal mistake and once ruined a princess's purity. The three princes are not certain they can win, but they are also afraid of angering His Majesty to death, so they did not say anything. As long as he can turn the tables, they will fight to the death. At that time, His Majesty and the Ninth Prince will both die. Your fates will be extremely cruel. "Ye Qinghan coldly reminded.
"What? This unfilial son!! " Imperial Concubine Xue was shocked. She did not expect the Ninth Prince to do such a beastly thing. He would not even let his own sister go.
"Is there no chance? Is there really no chance at all? "
Imperial Concubine Xue took a few steps back and muttered to herself. Her eyes were filled with despair. Her great future had been cut off by her own son.
"If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place! Since he dared to do it, then he must have left something behind. "Ye Qinghan lightly said.
"Let me remind you again. That princess and her mother are supporting the Seventh Prince. If the Seventh Prince ascends the throne, think about what your fates will be." Ye Qinghan evilly smiled. He turned around and looked at Imperial Concubine Xue's perfect body. His invasive gaze made her feel ashamed and unable to raise her head.
"Mister, please save us mother and son! This concubine does not ask for the throne, but for a peaceful life! "Imperial Concubine Xue directly knelt on the ground and helplessly begged for her life.
"If you want to keep your life, then the Seventh Prince cannot ascend the throne. We must remove him from the altar and make him a powerless prince." Ye Qinghan reminded, "The Seventh Prince has a very high position in the army. He has the support of more than thirty army commanders and six army commanders. This is a fatal force. This is the information of all the army commanders. Some of them did not do anything wrong, but most of them have committed crimes. His Majesty does not know about them. As for the other princes, they do not dare to say anything because His Majesty will suspect that they want to seize power. As long as you are responsible for eliminating half of them and arrange for my people to enter, this general can guarantee that no matter who ascends the throne in the future, you and your son will be able to enjoy glory and wealth."
Imperial Concubine Xue took the information in fear. She knew that her fate was firmly controlled by Ye Qinghan. Just by taking off her clothes today, she would not be able to clear her name!
"With just me, it is impossible to shake so many army commanders with military merits!" Imperial Concubine Xue bitterly smiled.
"Don't worry, I will send people to support you. In the morning court the day after tomorrow, there will be a large number of ministers who will report those army commanders who have violated the law." Ye Qinghan smiled. That kind of strange smile made people feel cold, as if everything was under his control.
"If I help Mister take down the Seventh Prince, will Little Nine still have a chance?" Imperial Concubine Xue was still thinking about the throne. She looked at Ye Qinghan expectantly.
"It will be very difficult, unless His Majesty does not have time to announce who the crown prince is. At that time, it will be time for the princes to fight for it with their own abilities." Ye Qinghan calmly said.
Ye Qinghan did not want a civil war in the Snow Country's Divine Realm because he needed a powerful Snow Country to invade other worlds and cause internal strife in the Nine Worlds. Only then would he have a chance to take revenge!
"I understand." Imperial Concubine Xue was sad and helpless.
Ye Qinghan looked at Imperial Concubine Xue with an evil smile and said, "Imperial Concubine Xue is indeed devastatingly beautiful. You are the most favored concubine. His Majesty the Emperor has good taste."
"But Mister disdains this dirty body and does not even want to touch it." Imperial Concubine Xue bitterly smiled.
Ye Qinghan reached out and pulled her over. He faintly smiled and said, "Who said I don't want to touch it? It is just that it is not time yet. Looking at your delicate and pitiful appearance, any man would be moved. I am not a saint, nor am I Liu Xiahui. How can I not be moved? "
Ye Qinghan grasped her heart but did not give a definite answer. Imperial Concubine Xue had a glimmer of hope. She felt that Ye Qinghan still had a chance to help her.
Ye Qinghan played with human nature in the palm of his hand. He was black-bellied, treacherous, and completely vile. Yet, no one would find him annoying.
"As long as Mister does not dislike it, it is fine. I thought Mister did not love me because I was old. Now that Mister has nothing to do, why don't you have a taste of my body? Perhaps you will like it." Imperial Concubine Xue took the initiative and reached out to touch Ye Qinghan.
