"Father! Although Qin Yu has made great contributions today, His Majesty's attitude is very strange. He actually rewarded Qin Wu Tianzi with the golden sword, which symbolizes imperial power!"
Shangguan Taro said in a deep voice.
"So what if he was rewarded with the Emperor's Golden Sword? Qin Wu comes from a humble background. Those old men in the Imperial Academy will never let him become the Crown Prince!"
Shangguan Xiong said coldly.
Although Qin Wu had the support of important official Wen Sanhu and had a very high prestige in the army, Shangguan Xiong knew very well that he had no chance of competing for the crown prince!
"Father! That's not necessarily true. Qin Wu has such prestige in the army and he has the support of Wen Sanhu. If he gets your support, and you can convince the Grand Secretaries of the Imperial Academy, then he might become the crown prince!"
Shangguan Taro said in a deep voice.
Ah!
Shangguan Xiong was shocked and looked at Shangguan Talang in disbelief.
Although the Imperial College has little real power, the university scholars there are all tough guys, and they have a very high say in the removal and enthronement of the crown prince!
When he was the prime minister, he almost dominated the court, but those people from the Imperial Academy never gave him face!
This kind of thing would be fine if they could be discussed, but if it was leaked out and someone interfered with the dethronement and enthronement of a country's crown prince, none of the ten clans would be left alive!
"Taro, do you think those people at the Imperial College will give your father this honor? Is your brain full of shit? How dare you come up with such a wicked idea!"
Shangguan Xiong angrily scolded Shangguan Tailang.
"Father! We don't have to show up in person, we can just send someone else!"
Shangguan Taro said in a deep voice.
"If I, your father, can't even handle this, it will be even more difficult to handle if I send someone else. Moreover, if it causes resentment from the Imperial College, the Shangguan family will be in big trouble!"
Shangguan Xiong said coldly.
"Father! We are all men, and those in the Imperial Academy are men too. I heard a new batch of women has arrived at Wutong Tower. They are all stunningly beautiful, and some are virgins. Leave this matter to me, and I can definitely convince one or two of them!"
Shangguan Taro said in a deep voice.
"How sure are you?"
Shangguan Xiong asked in a deep voice.
"very!"
Shangguan Taro said confidently.
"Alright then! I'll leave this matter to you. Remember, you must do it beautifully. I'll go find Qin Wu right away!"
Shangguan Xiong said in a deep voice.
The eldest prince’s residence!
Qin Wu held the golden sword in his hand and couldn't stop admiring it, his face full of excitement.
Wen Sanhu stood aside and watched. After a long while, Wen Sanhu said, "Your Highness Qin Wu, what do you think of His Majesty's attitude towards you?"
"Master Wen, I have never been able to understand my father's attitude towards me. Today he gave me the golden sword, which made me very nervous. Please help me solve my doubts!"
Qin Wu said in a deep voice.
Wen Sanhu's Qin Wu was very satisfied with his attitude and nodded repeatedly, saying, "It's normal for His Highness Qin Wu to not see through His Majesty. Your humble willingness to learn has proven that you are better than all the other princes!"
"Before I explain this to you, let me first ask you, what do you think of Qin Yu?"
Wen Sanhu asked in a deep voice.
"Although Qin Yu acted like a loser before, his recent performance has been outstanding. Even I cannot compare to Qin Yu."
Qin Wu said in a deep voice.
Although he was not convinced, Qin Yu was indeed much better than him!
"Your Highness Qin Wu, you are being a bit partial. Qin Yu is indeed excellent, but he is stubborn and will not listen to the good advice of loyal ministers. This is his biggest weakness!"
"His Majesty bestowed upon you the Emperor's Golden Sword, and also intended to use you to strike Qin Yu. However, no matter what, this is an opportunity for His Highness!"
"Your Highness should perform well and convince all the civil and military officials. At the same time, if there is an opportunity, you must kill Qin Yu with one strike!"
Wen Sanhu said in a deep voice.
