Qi Xian's expression suddenly changed, and he lowered his head slightly, as if he did not dare to look directly into Qi Yuan's eyes.
Although Qi Yuan is just an ordinary person, and he is terminally ill and will not die soon, but he is still the prince anyway. As long as he is alive, he has supreme power and can decide the world's laws with one word.
"I just made a mistake. I had no other thoughts. I would like to ask my brother Haihan." Qi Xian explained, still not looking up at Qi Yuan.
Qi Wen looked at Qi Xian with cold eyes. His father was not dead yet, so he gave orders on behalf of the prince. He wanted to expose it with just one gaffe. Do you think they are idiots?
"It seems that the fifth prince has become accustomed to being casual and does not understand the difference between superiority and inferiority. Who is your royal brother here?" At this moment, a cold voice came out, and the speaker was Jing Xiu beside Qi Yuan.
Qi Xian's expression suddenly froze, looking particularly embarrassed. He looked at Jing Xiu with anger. Even a guard dared to accuse him in public. He simply didn't know how to live or die.
Jing Xiu didn't seem to see the anger in Qi Xian's eyes. He stepped forward and a breath suddenly pressed on Qi Xian's body.
"Humph." Qi Xian grunted, his face became a little pale, and he stared at Jing Xiu, his eyes filled with strong murderous thoughts. At this moment, he swore in his heart that he would kill Jing Xiu in the future.
"You haven't saluted His Highness the Crown Prince yet!" Jing Xiu shouted coldly, the sound like thunder, resounding in Qi Xian's mind, making his soul tremble, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
Seeing this scene, everyone's body trembled slightly, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes. Although the person who did it was Jing Xiu, how could he dare to do it to the fifth prince without the prince's instruction.
It seems that the prince's arrival is not a good one.
Qi Xian gritted his teeth and looked at Qi Yuan, only to see Qi Yuan just looking at him quietly without any intention of stopping him. He immediately understood that if he didn't bow his head, Jing Xiu would continue to torture him.
With a pop, Qi Xian knelt down directly, and then said in a deep voice: "I just offended the Crown Prince's majesty, please forgive me."
There was a flash of deep meaning in many people's eyes. It was just when the fifth prince was in a state of triumph that the prince forced him to kneel down and confess his crime, obviously to dampen his arrogance.
It seemed that the prince was really about to die, so before he died, he shocked the fifth prince and the seventh prince. It happened that the fifth prince said those rebellious words just now, and the prince used him to scare the monkeys.
It can only be said that the fifth prince is unlucky.
"Get up, it won't happen again." Finally, Qi Yuan spit out a voice.
Qi Xian stood up slowly, clenching his fists tightly, with a cold look in his eyes. He forced him to kneel down in front of so many people. This was a deliberate humiliation to his face, even if he sat on it in the future.
The throne is also a shame that is difficult to wash away.
This hand is so cruel!
Qi Yuan did not look at Qi Xian anymore, his eyes swept over the rest of the body, and said: "I am here today to announce something. From today on, the Academy will be officially disbanded."
After hearing these words, the crowd's eyes showed excitement, but before the smiles on their faces could fully bloom, Qi Yuan's next words made their smiles freeze there.
"Although the academy has been dissolved, you cannot leave the palace immediately. It will take some time."
Everyone's faces fell. They didn't understand Qi Yuan's intention in doing this. They were worried that the forces behind them would conflict for imperial power, so they put them under house arrest in the palace.
Only when the imperial power stabilized could they leave the palace.
Although they were dissatisfied, they dared to be angry and dare not speak out. Anyone who spoke out against him would suffer the same fate as Qi Xian.
"Seventh brother." Qi Yuan looked at Qi Min.
"What are the prince's orders?" Qi Min said respectfully.
"In the next period of time, you will take good care of them on my behalf." Qi Yuan said.
After hearing Qi Yuan's words, many people's expressions froze. Just now, the fifth prince gave the order on behalf of the prince and knelt down in public, but now the prince asked the seventh prince to take care of them on his behalf. This difference in treatment is really obvious.
Could it be that the prince is more optimistic about the seventh prince?
At this moment, Qi Xian looked at Qi Yuan with cold eyes, and his heart was filled with anger. He wanted to suppress him and improve Qi Min's prestige. Did he think that this would allow Qi Min to rise to power?
It's too simple to think.
"Follow your orders, and I will definitely live up to the prince's trust." Qi Min replied, his face remained calm, and it was impossible to tell what was in his heart.
Qi Yuan nodded with satisfaction, looked at Qi Xian again, and said: "Keep what happened today in mind and don't do it again, otherwise it won't be the same punishment as before."
Qi Xian's eyes flashed, what did he mean?
Warn him?
Qi Yuan did not explain anything to Qi Xian, but looked at Jing Xiu and said, "Let's go."
Then Jing Xiu took Qi Yuan and Qi Wen and shot into the distance, quickly disappearing from the sight of the crowd.
Looking at their departing figures, everyone had different expressions, and some thoughts arose in their hearts.
At this time, Qi Xian looked at Qi Min and said with a fierce expression: "I ask you again, are you sure you want to fight with me?"
After saying these words, the crowd's hearts trembled. Is the fifth prince going to officially declare war?
Everyone looked at Qi Min and saw that his face was as calm as ever, and asked: "If Brother Huang wins, how do you plan to treat me?"
"I said before that if I ascend to the throne, you will be the prince below one person and above ten thousand people. Isn't this kind of power enough to satisfy you?" Qi Xian responded. He did not say this directly, but
It was Chuanyin. He had already suffered a loss just now, so naturally he would not make the same mistake again.
"If Brother Huang can really do it, it's not impossible for me to give up, but..." Qi Min's words stopped abruptly.
"Just what?" Qi Xian asked.
"I can't trust Brother Huang." Qi Min said with a smile: "With Brother Huang's behavior, once he gets into that position, the first thing he will do is probably get rid of me."
"Are you kidding me?" Qi Xian's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp edge, and a faint aura filled his body.
"Each of you depends on your ability. If Brother Huang wins, I will inevitably die. If I win, I will spare Brother Huang's life." After Qi Min said this, he turned around and walked away.
Everyone's eyes kept flickering. They didn't know the content of the conversation between Qi Min and Qi Xian, but they could vaguely guess that it must be related to the fight for imperial power.
Looking at Qi Min's leaving back, Qi Xian's face was full of coldness. Qi Min was not an idiot. If he didn't have the confidence, he would never say such words.
It seems that his imperial brother is not as simple as he appears, and he has some trump cards that he doesn't know about.
But it doesn't matter, the power he has is also more than just superficial. No matter what cards Qi Min has, it is impossible to defeat him.
