"Your Highness, with me here, the Imperial Guards won't do anything harmful to you."Li Chen's previous intelligence indicated that the entire Imperial Guard had been divided into three factions. Zhao...Chapter 487: Li Yinhu's Despair

"Things are getting complicated."

Li Yinhu gritted his teeth, at this moment he was completely without any pretense, his face and eyes were filled with the most venomous malice.

“When the assassination took place, the crown prince was actually there. It was because of him that the whole plan fell apart. Not only did the assassination fail, but this king was also implicated.”

"Tomorrow, this king will go to the eastern palace's side hall and begin to teach those immature brats how to read and study!"

The old man, seeing Li Yinhu's furious rage, calmly said, "Your Highness needn't get angry. This might not necessarily be a bad thing."

Li Yin's eyes were deep, "What do you mean by that"

The elder bowed and said, "There have been too many things happening recently, and almost all of them are unfavorable to the prince. The prince has fallen into the center of the vortex, and every move he makes will attract extra attention. This is clearly contrary to the prince's more than ten years of forbearance."

"Right now, the Crown Prince has trapped the Duke in a side hall of the East Palace. In fact, this gives the Duke a chance to do things quietly and low-key, away from the whirlpool of attention. Without so many eyes watching him, the Duke can get things done more easily."

Li Yinhu said angrily: “What you said, this king has thought about it long ago But the emperor’s health is deteriorating day by day, who knows when he will pass away.”

"But this king's own power has yet to be established. Once the time of upheaval arrives, who can stop the East Palace from ascending the throne"

The old man said softly, "The cabinet is even more anxious about this than the prince. But why hasn't Zhao Xuanji made any major moves"

Upon seeing Li Yinhu, the old man was startled. Seizing the moment, he pressed on, "Your Highness, you've fallen into a misconception. You always think that throne is yours to inherit, so you must fight for it. But haven't you ever wondered why the former prince collaborated with Zhao Xuanji back then"

Whether it's the power within the court or control over the entire nation, Zhao Xuanji is the number one. Even the Crown Prince cannot shake him. Could he not know that once the prince ascends the throne, his death knell will ring That's why there is cooperation between the prince and Zhao Xuanji.

"Zhao Xuanji is a sly old fox. He understands patience and concealment, working in the shadows. It's much easier for him to do things discreetly than it is for us to operate openly."

Li Yinhu pondered for a moment, "What do you mean"

The old man smiled faintly and bowed, saying, "Your Highness was already well-prepared, why bother to question me"

"This king understands. Proceed with caution and listen to the wind and thunder in stillness."

Li Yinhǔ mumbled to himself, then suddenly looked at the old man, frowning and saying, "Before, you wouldn't think about these things."

The old man said in a low voice, "Your Highness is indeed quick-witted. These are words that someone asked me to bring to you."

As if knowing Li Yinhu would ask, the old man didn't hesitate and immediately said, "That person is right outside now. If Your Highness wishes to see him, I will bring him in immediately."

"Bring it."

Li Yinhu narrowed his eyes and said, “This king would like to see what kind of demon this is.”

The old man bowed and then turned to leave.

After a while, the door was opened again. But this time, it wasn't the old man who entered, but a handsome young master.

Upon seeing the arrival, Li Yinhu's face couldn't help but show a hint of astonishment.

He never expected that he would have the opportunity to meet the other party, and even more so, at this time, in his own palace.

"Long Huaiyu!"

Hearing Li Yinhu's startled exclamation, Long Huaiyu smiled faintly and bowed. "I am a commoner, Long Huaiyu, I have met King Zhao." and patted Huang Jitian's shoulder, saying, "You're different."Li Chen's expression and demeanor at this moment resembled that of a seasoned gambler who had just cashed out, looking down with a sense...
