Chapter 364 - 96: Can’t Figure Out Who’s Cheating, Huh? The Scapegoat Arrives (Part 3)
At the same time, display weakness and appear so frail.
Even if Fu Zhengqing is exceptionally smart, he ultimately cannot be like Ye Liuyun, seeing others’ cultivation realm and talent entry directly.
Thus.
Fu Zhengqing has no clue whether Yan Fuhai has truly broken through to the Land Immortal Realm.
What if he hasn’t broken through?
Then.
"Now is the perfect time to kill Yan Fuhai!"
Thinking this, Fu Zhengqing’s eyes gleamed with a sharp light.
If he really can kill Yan Fuhai, then the shackles binding him would completely vanish.
However.
What if? What if Yan Fuhai truly has broken through?
Thinking this, Fu Zhengqing realized his earlier thoughts might be somewhat risky.
"Teacher! Teacher!"
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly reached Fu Zhengqing’s ears.
This voice’s appearance made Fu Zhengqing’s once furrowed brows relax immediately.
He clearly thought of.
Another method, that is, finding a scapegoat.
Using the other to thoroughly test if Yan Fuhai truly has issues, if true, he could take the opportunity to eliminate Yan Fuhai, even if false.
There would be a scapegoat in front, and everything would have nothing to do with him.
Thinking here.
Fu Zhengqing’s lips began to curl into a slight smile, restoring his usual demeanor.
"Teacher!"
While pondering, Prince An Yan Jiang’s figure appeared inside Fu Zhengqing’s courtyard.
It was clear that Yan Jiang’s expression showed some urgency.
As if aware of some earth-shattering news, normally coming secretly, but this time unable to hold it back, he came with great fanfare.
"I heard Father left seclusion, is it true?"
In the palace, Prince An Yan Jiang also arranged some connections.
Originally intending to use them to monitor Yan Shuzhu.
Who knew nothing went wrong on Yan Shuzhu’s side, yet these people brought him tremendous news, his father, namely Yan Fuhai, surprisingly left seclusion.
Although he didn’t act openly.
Yet Yan Fuhai didn’t hide his identity in the palace, during movement, many eunuchs and maids saw Yan Fuhai’s traces.
Upon receiving the news.
Yan Jiang was almost dumbfounded.
Thinking he’d stay secluded for a few more years, who knew he was out already?
"That’s right!"
Having thought of the rhetoric, Fu Zhengqing naturally nodded.
"After morning court ended, the Supreme Emperor also summoned me to the palace to reminisce!"
Surprisingly this is true.
Regarding Fu Zhengqing’s words, Yan Jiang naturally had no doubts, his expression darkened.
But quickly, Yan Jiang noticed a problem in Fu Zhengqing’s sentence.
"Supreme Emperor?"
What does Supreme Emperor mean, shouldn’t his father upon first leaving seclusion take the throne into his own hands? Why become Supreme Emperor in the first place.
Clearly.
Not only Fu Zhengqing and ministers but even Yan Fuhai’s princes know very well, their father is extremely fond of power.
Seeing Yan Jiang take the bait.
Fu Zhengqing smiled slightly, then shook his head and said.
"The Supreme Emperor encountered some mishap during seclusion, seems his days are numbered, plus the current majesty handles state affairs quite orderly, hence is prepared to fully hand over the throne to the current majesty!"
"..."
Fully hand over the throne to Yan Shuzhu.
How can this be, that throne should originally belong to him.
How could it be given to someone else.
Not allowed.
It is a matter Yan Jiang absolutely will not allow to happen.
"Wait!"
But at this moment.
Yan Jiang realized another problem.
"You mean, Father encountered mishap during seclusion and is numbered in days?"
Eyes lit up.
If true, he could fully wait for Yan Fuhai to die, then directly rebel and snatch the throne from Yan Shuzhu!
Facing Yan Fuhai’s former might.
In Yan Jiang’s heart, he still holds some fear for Yan Fuhai.
Dare only act after the other’s death.
"Indeed so!"
Yan Jiang’s small thoughts.
Almost fully expressed on his face, there’s no way Fu Zhengqing can’t see it.
It’s just.
Seeing it.
Fu Zhengqing just acted like he didn’t see it, speaking on his own.
"But no need to worry, the Supreme Emperor has palace pills supporting, surely living several more decades is no issue, it’s just his cultivation might not be as before!"
"..."
Indeed, Yan Jiang’s face completely changed.
Even though internally respectful of Yan Fuhai.
Yet thinking he might need decades before hoping to sit the throne, Yan Jiang completely couldn’t hold it back.
Only during this period, if his cultivation reaches the Grandmaster Realm.
Otherwise.
By the time, whether he survives is a question.
"Whew!"
Yan Jiang slowly exhaled a breath, trying hard to calm down.
"No, I can’t wait that long!"
"..."
Seeing such discourse, joy flickered between Fu Zhengqing’s brows.
Indeed very effective.
Yes, Fu Zhengqing said it precisely to guide Yan Jiang, to have Yan Jiang target Yan Fuhai, and Fu Zhengqing in his plan envisaged Yan Jiang as the scapegoat.
Yan Jiang always much respected Fu Zhengqing.
Never having doubted that the other would scheme against him.
Thus upon hearing Fu Zhengqing’s words.
Yan Jiang nearly instantly believed.
Perhaps thinking they are akin to grasshoppers on the same boat, the other simply lacking the reason to deceive him.
