As long as he can remember, he has been planning for the Dragon Throne for many years. His talents are even better than those of the Crown Prince, but because he was born a little later, it is so difficult to sit on the Dragon Throne.
The old emperor's tone softened, "I promised to give you everything, but I can't give you the kingdom. It's my helplessness. Your brother Jun Chenghao is also a talented and strategic man, and he acts steadily. In the future, the kingdom of Qi Tianguo will be handed over to you.
I can rest assured about him. Although he is not my favorite son, he is still my son. What’s more, since the founding of the Qi Tian Kingdom, the eldest son has inherited the throne. It is destiny for Jun Chenghao to inherit the throne..."
"That's enough." Jun Youqi's eyes showed no concealment of disgust, "I don't want to hear it! What about destiny, what rules about the eldest son inheriting the throne, it's a bunch of nonsense! I only believe that man can conquer nature!"
"God's will cannot be violated..."
"If you follow the rules so much, why would you still go and rob Ye Yanli, the evil biological mother of Jun Mo Shang back then, who was already married to someone else? Don't sound so righteous and sanctimonious. Just go and take what you want."
Come on, I still inherit your father’s ‘tradition’ in my blood.”
"How can that be the same? She is just a woman." The emperor was heartbroken when he saw that his son had made up his mind. "Because of this, I did something wrong and forced Ye Yanli away, so I was sent by heaven and gave birth to Jun Lonely."
That monster, you can't make the same mistake again and again."
"Humph, what my father said is nice. Don't make the same mistake again and again." He asked, "What about the crown prince's biological mother, Concubine Chen? Concubine Chen is Princess Min of the Dejun Palace of Huanyue Kingdom. Princess Min was brought by you in Huanyue Kingdom.
According to the investigation of the woman who came back, before she came with you, she had a close relationship with Murong Yuan, the seventh prince of Huanyue Kingdom at that time. She was pregnant with Jun Chenghao when she returned to Qitian Kingdom with you. Who knew that Jun Chenghao was...
Not your seed?"
"Presumptuous!" The emperor was furious, "What did you say! How could the prince not be my biological child? When Concubine Chen fell in love with Murong Yuan, she was still innocent when she followed me.
After marrying me, she never had contact with Murong Yuan again and went directly back to Qitian Kingdom with me. How can you slander her good reputation?"
"She knows in her heart whether she is trying to contaminate her or not. Concubine Chen is a smart person. She has never had any contact with Murong Yuan's people for so many years. She is a safe person and her sons and ministers can't find anything against her."
"It's not that you can't catch her, it's that she's not afraid of her shadow being distorted."
"What's the matter? You can't stand it when your son questions the son you have helped raise for decades, so you are jumping the gun?"
"Don't think that I don't know. Fifteen years ago, there were rumors that the prince was not my biological child. It was you who spread the rumors. I killed all the ministers who reported the matter. Since the imperial decree, anyone who spreads rumors again will be killed.
The rumors stopped after I killed someone. After waiting for fifteen years, have you found any evidence that Concubine Chen was unfaithful to me?"
Jun Youqi frowned and said nothing. No. The emperor and Concubine Chen had a good relationship, and it was thirty-four years ago when the prince was born, and he was not yet born at that time. Even if there were doubts, many years later, there was nothing.
The evidence, secondly, even he himself almost suspected that his inference was wrong. There was no clue at all, maybe he was paranoid.
"If you don't speak, then you are gone." The emperor felt sad, "Old Shi, you..."
