Xuanyuan Zhi was sure that Xiao Tianyao would not dare to kill him, so he didn’t put Xiao Tianyao’s threat in his eyes at all. The black-armored guards were also relieved when they heard this.
It was all good as long as the eldest prince will not die here!
Seeing Xiao Tianyao couldn’t say anything with his words, he laughed arrogantly: “Xiao Tianyao, now let go of this prince. This prince will give you a lot more surprise!”
Xuanyuan Zhi was so sure that Xiao Tianyao wouldn’t dare do anything to him. He underestimated Xiao Tianyao too much.
“Although benwang can’t kill you, he can abolish you.” Blood still dripping from Xiao Tianyao’s wounds, but he held the sword in his hand. He didn’t lose his grip even a bit. Even his tone didn’t change.
Xuanyuan Zhi was startled: “What do you mean?”
“Literally as it sounds.” The sword that Xiao Tianyao put on Xuanyuanzhi’s neck got a little closer: “Xuanyuan Zhi, tell me... ... is it possible for a disabled prince to become a crown prince?”
Both of them were a member of the imperial family. Although the Eastern Country was not as big as the Central Empire, the battle inside the imperial family has remained the same for thousands of years. Xiao Tianyao, who had experienced struggle because of the throne struggle, knew much better than Xuanyuan Zhi.
As if the intimidation was not enough, Xiao Tianyao added: “Say... ... If benwang abolished you, will your brothers be grateful to benwang for getting rid of a potential enemy for the throne for them?”
“What do you want to do?” Xuanyuan Zhi’s voice trembled indescribably.
He was scared, he was really scared at this moment.
He was not afraid of death. Because he knew Xiao Tianyao would not dare to kill him, but he was really afraid that Xiao Tianyao would abolish him.
In the Central Empire, there were many princes. No matter how capable he was, no matter how good he was, no matter how powerful the people behind him were, the royal family and hundred officials will not let a disabled person ascend to the throne.
“If benwang abolished you, what do you think the black-armored guards will do?” Xiao Tianyao destroyed Xuanyuanzhi’s belief a little bit more.
“The black-armored guards?” Xuanyuan Zhi looked at the black-armored guards. One of the black-armored guards didn’t dodge his gaze. Instead, looked at him indifferently.
Although the black-armored guard didn’t speak, his attitude was very clear.
They were the emperor. They obey Xuanyuan Zhi’s orders. If Xuanyuan Zhi told them to retire, they would definitely retire, they would compromise for Xuanyuan Zhi’s life and safety, but they would never sacrifice themselves just because they wanted to keep their integrity.
As everyone knows, in the Central Empire, the black-armored guards were far more important than a prince who was nothing. If Xuanyuan Zhi died in Eastern Country, the Central Empire’s Emperor might punish the black-armored guards, but if Xuanyuan Zhi only became crippled, the Central Empire’s Emperor would only blame Xuanyuan Zhi for his incompetence.
Both Xuanyuan Zhi and the black-armored guard understand this. He only needs to take Xuanyuan Zhi back alive. As for whether the eldest prince becomes disabled or injured, it doesn’t matter!
They were the emperor’s people, not Xuanyuan Zhi’s people. No matter how badly injured Xuanyuan Zhi get, it had nothing to do with them, as long as he didn’t die. contemporary romance
But of course, if Xuanyuan Zhi himself decide to stop, and let Xiao Tianyao and the Eastern Army go, they would not be so stubborn as to offend a prince who was in good health and might have ascended the throne.
Anyway, it was not them who will carry the black pot in the end.
“You... are cruel!” Xuanyuan Zhi understood Xiao Tianyao’s meaning, and also knew the choice of the black-armored guards.
“Benwang learned it from you.” Xiao Tianyao was not angry. He had already offended Xuanyuan Zhi. So why should he care about Xuanyuan Zhi’s evaluation?
