Chapter 1784 Let Him Be Quiet
The cloaked man listened to the conversation and found it ridiculous, but he did not refute it because these people were determined to persuade him to give up his unrealistic ideas.
He was fully aware of his own plan and was unwilling to give up. It was also because he was too unwilling to give up. Moreover, he knew Tu Yuanzhou so well, how could he not give it a try?
With this thought in mind, the cloaked man looked at the prince, then turned and left.
The prince watched him leave, then said to Chen Changli, "This man has already changed his mind. We can't persuade him. We can only find out his preparations to be prepared."
Chen Changli nodded solemnly: "That's exactly what it should be."
Wan Shufang was silent for a long time, then she looked up at the prince and asked with concern, "Your Highness, are you not going to fight for the throne?"
"I don't know." A trace of confusion flashed across the prince's eyes.
Chen Changli saw that he looked strange, and his heart began to beat wildly. He asked hurriedly, "Your Highness, do you have any doubts? Or did something happen in the outside world that made you hesitate about your original decision?"
The prince frowned slightly, as if he was sorting out his thoughts.
After a while he asked, "Chen Changli, do you think I can be a good emperor?"
"How do you define a good emperor?" Chen Changli asked instead of answering.
The prince smiled bitterly, "It was only when I was thinking about this that I felt that even if I ascended the throne, I might not be able to do better than my father."
"You know, when my father was young, he was indeed a good emperor, and was deeply supported by the civil and military officials."
"As he got older, he became more and more confused, so much so that he turned himself into neither a human nor a ghost just for the sake of a rumor of immortality."
"The emperor is obsessed with immortality because he cares about the power in his hands and doesn't want anyone to be contaminated by it." Wan Shufang hit the nail on the head.
Chen Changli agreed: "The old emperor cares a lot about power. You and the other princes have become pawns in his hands."
"The Fourth Prince is stupid and greedy. The old emperor thinks he is easy to control, so he chose him to be a puppet emperor."
"The Third Prince sensed something was wrong through this incident and soon figured out the old emperor's intentions. He was an extremely arrogant man and had previously been favored by the old emperor. He could not accept this, so he told the truth to the Fourth Prince, hoping to use him to get rid of the old emperor."
"But the other princes had misunderstandings, which led to a rebellion. The third and fourth princes died in the palace, which was a worthy death."
"The old emperor was killed by the Eighth Prince because of his actions. You don't need to think about his affairs and then involve yourself in them."
"Your Highness, you are an independent person, gentle and elegant, and you care about the world. This is enough to prove that you are different from other princes."
Chen Changli spoke sincerely and it was obvious that he was thinking this in his heart.
During this period, Wan Shufang came into contact with several princes, and she also very much identified with Chen Changli.
"What Chen Changli said is exactly what I want to say. The princes are no match for you. As for the others, I haven't heard of them, but I don't think they care about the people as much as you do."
Wan Shufang said this, looking at the prince with burning eyes, and said earnestly: "Quanrong and Hehe are obsessed with the Central Plains. No matter how capable Tu Yuanzhou is, he can't suppress the ambitions of these two countries."
"The people suffered from natural disasters before, and their lives were miserable. Now the world is in chaos, and they just go with the flow, which will only make things worse than before. But once these two countries enter the Central Plains, they will be wiped out."
"So no matter what you are thinking, I hope you can think about it from the perspective of the people before making the final decision."
Wan Shufang was very sure that the situation outside was very bad based on the prince's attitude.
But the more this happened, the more she didn't want the prince to give up, because apart from the prince, no one else would take the people seriously.
"Please allow me to think about it carefully." The prince felt complicated after listening to what the couple said.
He couldn't help but walk to the corner and curl himself up silently.
Seeing that he looked extremely confused, Wan Shufang wanted to persuade him again.
Chen Changli held her back and said in a low voice, "Let him be quiet for a while."
Upon hearing this, Wan Shufang leaned against him silently, and the atmosphere became stagnant for a moment.
When the three of them were lost in thought about the people's affairs, Liu Yaoyao, who had fainted on the ground, slowly woke up.
She stood up and looked around, and found that there was no one around except her.
Her pupils shrank in shock, and then she checked the dead people. She didn't see the prince and his men, nor did she see Chang Xuewei's body.
She was so angry that her face turned blue: "What does this mean? Why did you leave me behind? Do you look down on me so much?"
Then she thought that Chang Xuewei was dead, and she finally put an end to a worry, so she let out a breath unconsciously.
"I'm still alive, which is a good thing, but who is that cloaked man? Why did he let me go?"
"Where did he take the prince and the others? Is it possible that Tu Yuanzhou is here too?"
Liu Yaoyao felt a little uneasy when this thought came to her mind.
She stared at the sky obscured by trees, feeling that all her plans were under the sun and could not escape the scorching sun.
"Where are the fire bombs?" Liu Yaoyao forced herself to suppress the uneasiness in her heart and began to search for her own people. Seeing that they had died of poisoning, she was very sad, but there was nothing she could do. She searched for the fire bombs, but did not find any.
Her face turned green with anger: "Even the fire bombs were looted. This person is really taking advantage of others."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Liu Yaoyao bit her lip and turned back.
She was going to Yongzhou City to tell Lin Jing and others the news and ask them to find a way to save people.
It would be best if both sides could suffer losses.
With this thought in mind, Liu Yaoyao traveled day and night and returned to Yongzhou City in two days and one night.
Unfortunately, she was in such a hurry to get on with her journey that she didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. When she arrived in Yongzhou City and saw a familiar person, she fainted before she could even say a word.
"Liu Yaoyao? What's wrong with you?" Yanran was patrolling the outer city and didn't expect Liu Yaoyao to enter the city at this time.
Seeing that she looked so miserable and like a beggar, Yanran was about to mock her, but she fainted.
She took Liu Yaoyao's pulse and found that she had fainted from hunger. She was so surprised that she asked, "Why are you so hungry?"
"Miss Yanran, who is in trouble?" Chen Tao brought people over and asked with concern.
"It's Liu Yaoyao. Please help me carry her back and ask your wife to make a bowl of porridge for her." Yanran said hurriedly.
Chen Tao immediately offered to help upon hearing this.
By the time Wang Xiaohui had finished cooking the porridge, Yanran had already finished giving Liu Yaoyao the injection and asked her to wake up and drink some water to calm down.
Yanran had a lot of doubts. As soon as she spoke, it was like a firecracker that exploded, causing Liu Yaoyao's eardrums to hurt. "What happened to you? Why are you so embarrassed? Where is the prince? Why didn't he come back with you?"
