Chapter 1239 Prince Li’s Extra: The Power of the Great Prince
“Call him over.” Murong Zheng was startled by the young eunuch’s words. He wanted to block the news in order to target the Dong family, and the same was true for calling the great prince.
But the young eunuch left in a hurry, and came back a long time later to tell him that the great prince was not there.
“I was poisoned, and my life or death was uncertain. He was not guarding outside?” In the torment of waiting, Murong Zheng was already very depressed. Now, after listening to the young eunuch’s painting, he was even more angry.
“The great prince was guarding outside before, and then he went out for some reason. No one knows where the great prince went.” The young eunuch explained in a panic, fearing that Murong Zheng would transfer his anger to himself.
“Send someone to find him.” Murong Zheng heard that the great prince was guarding outside the bedroom before, and his anger had gone halfway, but he was still irritable in his heart.
Everyone, whether it was his queen, concubines or his son, he was the king of a country, but he could not control them.
Murong Zheng had just been detoxified and was still very weak. He struggled to wait for the arrival of the eldest prince, but he couldn't stand the sleepiness and fell asleep.
When he woke up, it was already daylight outside.
His mouth was very dry and his hands were numb. He was about to call for help, but the eunuch who noticed his movement had already spoken: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince is back, bringing the Dong family."
Dong family?
"Let the eldest prince in." Murong Zheng forgot about his physical discomfort and whispered.
"Father, I went to do something last night and didn't know that you were summoned. Please forgive me." After entering the room, the eldest prince knelt down to apologize. Murong Zheng held the cup in his hand and looked at him carefully.
"What important matter can make you ignore my life and death? If I died after doing it last night, and you were not here, who would hand over this country to?"
The eldest prince looked at Murong Zheng in surprise and didn't recover for a long time.
Murong Zheng's meaning was clear, he intended to hand over the country to him.
"Father, you don't know, someone announced last night that you will hand over the country of the Great Zhou to your fourth brother."
The eldest prince's meaning was very clear. No matter who he wanted to hand over the Great Zhou to now, the imperial edict to confer the title of crown prince was written by the emperor. If Murong Zheng had any accident last night, Murong Jie would be there.
"What is more important than your father's life and death?"
"Of course it was the country of the Great Zhou."
"What did you do last night?"
"Dong raised 20,000 elite soldiers in Guibei Mountain in the south of the city. Yesterday, Dong Lanyang led his troops to enter the city and was captured by me.
"You captured Dong Lanyang? Those 20,000 elite soldiers..." He said that the eldest prince captured Dong Lanyang because he believed that he had the ability to do so. However, Dong Lanyang, who was guarded by 20,000 elite soldiers, seemed to be no match for the eldest prince who had no real power.
"Yes, the person is outside the palace. "The eldest prince answered calmly.
"Who helped you catch him?" After confirming that Dong Lanyang was caught, Murong Zheng had only one answer in his mind.
Someone must have helped the eldest prince, and this person's strength was not bad.
The eldest prince did not answer, but just looked at Murong Zheng, and Murong Zheng's eyes, in addition to inquiry, there was a little more panic.
Being able to control 20,000 elite soldiers, the eldest prince's soldiers must be more than 20,000. In the capital, the only ones who can mobilize more than 20,000 troops are the two camps in the south and north of the city. They are the barrier to protect the capital, and they can easily obey the orders of the eldest prince?
Murong Zheng looked at the eldest prince as if he was looking at a stranger. He didn't expect that when he didn't know, his son had grown into a towering tree.
