Chapter 1501 - 1502: Where Are People’s Hearts?
At this moment, Ye Luo glanced dismissively at the frail old man and said, "Speak plainly, old man. Don’t beat around the bush. Aren’t you just trying to say that I want to seize the position of Crown Prince? Or maybe you want to accuse me of planning a rebellion to overthrow the throne? Fine, I admit it. Go ahead, report it to Emperor Brother, report it to Father Emperor. See if they will believe you!"
Ye Luo actually admitted this! And he even directly turned the accusation back on them.
The few elders froze for a moment. According to their calculations, the situation wasn’t supposed to develop this way!
The Great Tang Royal Family fears sibling rivalries the most. Even though every transfer of the throne inevitably leads to internal struggles, at least in daily life, no Prince or Royal Family member would ever dare to show any inkling of such thoughts!
Because expressing such ambitions would not only incur the wrath of the Emperor and other Princes, but even the officials wouldn’t spare them!
Thus, when these old schemers used this tactic to threaten other Princes, it had always worked without fail. But to their surprise, with Ye Luo, it had absolutely no effect!
In truth, they only came because they heard about the anomaly at the Sacred Temple of Yun Kai. Normally, they barely meddled in the affairs of the younger generation.
As for Ye Luo, their understanding of him was far too limited!
"How dare you! Ninth Prince, you’re so audacious to possess the intent to rebel! Your words just now have been recorded by us. We will surely report this to His Majesty! I want to see if you’ll still have the nerve to speak this way then!"
The frail old man was enraged, resorting to his usual tactics of intimidation.
But Ye Luo couldn’t even be bothered to spare him a glance.
"Go ahead, report it to Father Emperor and the other brothers. Tell them Ye Luo harbors ambitions to seize the throne. No, wait—tell them Ye Luo has already started preparing to take the throne. Hurry up! Stop being an eyesore in front of me!"
