Chapter 197: The Great Cool Dragon SparrowChapter 139: Poisoned

Wang Tenghuan's words made Zhao Xuanji's face twitch.

He did not respond to Wang Tenghuan, but immediately rebuked the maidservants around him: "All of you, get out!"

The maidservants scurried away.

When everyone else had left, Zhao Xuanji only then came to the bedside and sat down. He said to Wang Lin, "Brother Wang, is it appropriate to openly call the Crown Prince's name and insult him If this gets out, I'm afraid it will be another handle for them to use against us."

Wang Tenghuan glared, unwillingly saying: "So what if I have a weakness I've already been demoted and bitten on one ear. Now I'm cowardly and afraid. Do I really have to let Li Chen chop off my head before I know how to resist"

This statement, for the most part, is said to oneself.

Zhao Xuanji's face darkened slightly, and he said, "Wang brother, you are speaking recklessly."

Wang Tenghuan gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao brother, now I am utterly despondent. The Crown Prince is relentless in his pursuit. Is there still a way out for you To what extent will you continue to retreat"

Zhao Xuanji said coldly, "From what I know about the prince, the fact that he didn't kill you directly this time is due to his fear of me. He doesn't dare to completely tear up the face."

Wang Teng huang said angrily, "You said the same thing last time, but what about the current situation Brother Zhao, you're not unaware that after that imperial court meeting, the prince's power has grown even more. Everyone below is anxious and some have already started thinking of an escape route. It's difficult for us to rally people, but if they scatter, it will happen in the blink of an eye. We must be careful!"

Zhao Xuanji angrily said, “How could I not know what you’re saying The prince's power is growing day by day. That Su Zhenting has been nowhere to be seen these past few days, but he's constantly in and out of the military camp and Ministry of War. There are also reports from spies that everywhere in the country where the generals have ties with the Great General’s Mansion, they have all been contacted by Su Zhenting. This is the prince gathering military power.”

Wang Tenghuan widened his eyes and said, "If that's the case, what are you waiting for!"

"Long live the emperor!"

Zhao Xuanji's words were astonishing.

"The emperor was clinging on with all his might, only waiting for the crown prince to grow strong enough. When that time comes, the crown prince will seize power and ascend the throne, which is when you and I will have nowhere to run and be finished."

At this moment, even the pain of having lost an ear couldn't suppress Wang Tenghuan's inner horror and fear. He said, "So, you are waiting for the emperor to die"

"Who knows when the emperor will swallow his pride He's just delaying, and that's most detrimental to me. But I haven't made up my mind yet."

Zhaoxuanji's face was gloomy, and he said, "There is still one opportunity missing."

After he finished speaking, two rhythmic knocks suddenly came from outside the door.

Zhao Xuanji immediately got up and turned to Wang Tenghuan, saying: "You should take good care of your injuries first. Don't worry about anything else. What does it matter if you lost an ear As long as I don't fall, one day when great things are accomplished, I can restore your official position and make you enjoy supreme glory with just a word. Power struggles, old man, I have played with them my whole life. Your Highness, you are still very young."

Having said that, Zhao Xuanji walked out the door.

Standing at the door was an unremarkable middle-aged man.

"Grand Tutor," the middle-aged man bowed respectfully.

"Follow me to the study."

After leading the middle-aged man into the study and closing the door, Zhao Xuanji finally said, "Well"

"The Empress Dowager is already aware. The Ninth Prince has also awakened, but his temperament has changed, and he appears dazed. The Empress Dowager asked me to inquire about how we should proceed." The middle-aged man bowed respectfully.

Zhao Xuanji said coldly, “Give this medicine to the Empress and have her give it to the Ninth Prince.”

"If the Empress inquires, tell her this medicine is for calming the mind and focusing the spirit, it will help the Ninth Prince recover soon."Chapter 806 What Can You Bring to This King
