Father, I am back to fight!

Chapter 255

Chapter 255

"Master Wen, I am a dull student and don't know what to do."

Qin Wu said in a deep voice.

In fact, he had already made up his mind, but he wanted to hear Wen Sanhu's opinion.

Wen Sanhu was very satisfied with Qin Wu's attitude. He smiled and said, "The first step is to establish your authority. You have the Emperor's Golden Sword, so you can execute first and report later. If there are corrupt officials in this city, they should be executed in public!"

"If you can kill a few corrupt officials, the people of Kyoto will have more faith in you!"

"As long as His Highness Qin Wu achieves this, there will be officials who will want to rely on His Highness Qin Wu's power. His Highness Qin Wu must remember that he must never accept the support of any official!"

"But if it's Shangguan Xiong, then it's acceptable."

Ah!

Qin Wu agreed with Wen Sanhu's suggestion to kill corrupt officials. He could also understand not accepting officials' dependence, but why could Shangguan Xiong do that?

At the same time, everyone in Kyoto knew that Shangguan Xiong was very close to the second prince Qin Mang. Even if he got the Emperor's Golden Sword, would Shangguan Xiong come to find him?

"Master Wen, do you think Shangguan Xiong will choose to support me?"

Qin Wu asked in a deep voice.

"Haha! Shangguan Xiong is a man of great cunning and despicable character. He's not supporting you, but the person who is most likely to ascend the throne in the future!"

"Qin Mang previously relied on his mother being His Majesty's favorite concubine to act tyrannically. Therefore, Shangguan Xiong only stayed close to him but never expressed his support for him!"

"Besides, what's the difference between Qin Mang and trash at this point? Shangguan Xiong has been demoted from Prime Minister to Cabinet Elder, so he must be desperate to find a prince who can help him regain the position of Prime Minister!"

"Qin Yu will never help him, so he has no choice but to choose His Highness Qin Wu!"

Wen Sanhu said with a sneer.

"I see. If I can get Shangguan Xiong's support, then I really might become the crown prince!"

Qin Wu said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness, please remember, no matter what benefits Shangguan Xiong promises, you must not accept his support unless he can convince those people at the Imperial Academy!"

Wen Sanhu said in a deep voice.

"Imperial Academy! Those people are truly despicable! Just because I come from a humble background, they've refused to support me becoming the Crown Prince!"

Qin Wu gritted his teeth.

"Your Highness! Lord Shangguan requests an audience!"

Just then, a servant came in to report.

Wen Sanhu smiled and said, "As expected, he's here. I'll withdraw first. Your Highness Qin Wu, remember, you must be careful when dealing with this person!"

After saying that, Wen Sanhu turned and went into the inner room.

Shangguan Xiong came in and bowed respectfully to Qin Wu, saying, "Your Highness has been awarded the Emperor's Golden Sword by His Majesty today. You will surely have a bright future and be unstoppable!"

"Lord Shangguan, you're joking. My father gave me the Emperor's Golden Sword to ask me to be strict with myself and abide by my conduct. It's a test for me!"

"This Emperor's Golden Sword is like a sharp sword hanging over my head. If it weren't for my father's grace, I would rather not have this sword!"

Qin Wu said in a deep voice.

Ah!

Shangguan Xiong couldn't help but frown when he heard what Qin Wu said. Qin Wu's words were flawless. It seemed that he was much more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.

"Your Highness, that's really too much. Your Majesty's intention is actually very simple: to train Your Highness!"

"At the same time, Your Highness should also seize this opportunity and use the Emperor's Golden Sword to kill Qin Yu!"
