Hearing this, Xiao Tiannan looked relieved and said in a deep voice: "Prince, now... it is really not the time to go back."
As if he was not surprised that Xiao Tiannan would say this, Yelu Shenxuan said calmly: "You continue to speak, I am listening."
Xiao Tiannan nodded and said slowly: "I have a question to ask. If the prince sets off immediately, will he go back lightly or with a large army?"
Yelu Shenxuan frowned and said: "Although I haven't made a decision yet, if I want to go back, I must go back lightly."
"Okay, since we are going back lightly, we can only bring a hundred or ten personal guards at most, right?" Xiao Tiannan said again.
Yelu Shenxuan said lightly: "That's natural. The reason why we don't bring a large army is that the army has just experienced a war and needs to recuperate, and there must be enough troops to guard the Crescent Pass. The most important reason is also because of the large army.
The marching speed is so slow that we don’t even know when the entire army will return to Wolf Court, which is not in line with the current actual situation at all."
"Yes, in this case, the monarch's physical condition no longer allows him to give any help to the prince. In other words, when the prince returns to the Wolf Court, he will face those big nobles who are eyeing him."
Xiao Tiannan said in a very erratic tone: "I have to make a desperate assumption. If the monarch returns to the embrace of Changshengtian just after the prince returns to Langting, or even halfway, then who can guarantee that those great nobles will
Don’t you have other thoughts?”
Yelu Shenxuan's eyes were as bright as lightning, he stared at Xiao Tiannan and shouted: "Xiao Tiannan, you are so brave!"
Xiao Tiannan immediately knelt down, but said firmly: "The prince said that he would not blame the minister."
"Now the prince needs a pertinent suggestion. This is the unshirkable responsibility of the minister. Even if the prince is furious and wants to kill the minister, he should also ask the minister to finish his words before killing him."
Yelu Shenxuan said coldly: "Keep talking."
Xiao Tiannan said at a very fast speed: "The prince's position in the Liao Kingdom is the most stable prince in history. He has the support of the people and the support of the majority of civil and military officials. Now he has won the title."
Crescent Moon Pass, with such unparalleled achievements, no one can stop His Highness from succeeding to the throne."
Yelu Shenxuan's face looked a little better at this time, and he nodded slightly, which was regarded as acknowledgment of Xiao Tiannan's words.
But Xiao Tiannan then said: "But all this is based on the premise that the monarch will transfer the position and power to the prince smoothly. If the monarch suddenly dies suddenly, or there is no time to smoothly transfer the power to the prince,
In the hands of the prince, will those nobles really be willing to watch the prince succeed to the throne and become possibly the most dominant monarch in the history of the Liao Kingdom?"
This question made Yelu Shenxuan's face suddenly darken, but he had to admit that Xiao Tiannan asked him the biggest worry in his heart.
No one wants to live in the shadow of others their whole life.
The Liao Kingdom seems peaceful, but its internal affairs are turbulent. How can outsiders know?
Yelu Shenxuan knew very well that it was precisely because of the strength and ability he had always shown that many big nobles and tribes were extremely afraid of him.
Because the stronger you are and the more power you need, the more you will squeeze their interests.
No one likes an overly powerful monarch above their head. This principle is universally accepted by human nature.
