C2312 Warlord's Mansion

1The Chao Yin princess is ambitious, not only does he want to be the future queen of the Tidal Kingdom, but he also wants to take control of the Dragon Palace through marriage.

The Crown Prince of Long San is one of the most powerful successors of the Dragon Palace in the future. The purpose of the marriage alliance between Princess Chao Yin and him is naturally for the sake of love. It is only because of the identity and status of the Crown Prince of Long San.

Prince Xi Zhan had his own fiefdom, so he did not live in the Tidal King Palace. The place he lived in was called the War King Palace.

As the distance between the two was not too close, in order to attract criticism, Princess Chao Yin rarely went to find her father when she had nothing to do.

"Father, I have come to pay my respects to you..." Princess Chao Yin bowed slightly and gently said.

"Yin'er, I have heard that a lot of things have happened in the palace recently. Your visit today should be related to this, right?" Xi Zhan waved his hand, gesturing for Princess Chao Yin to take a seat first.

"I won't hide it from you, father. I came here today precisely for this matter. You should have heard about the return of the Tidal Clan of the Heavenly Sea Lake, right?" Princess Chao Yin went straight to the point and spoke in a deep voice.

"Although I am not in the Tidal Palace, I have heard of such a major matter. Not only that, I also know that Prince Xi Ning has already died in the Mysterious Underworld Sacred Pond. You've done very well. You're much stronger than I was back then..." Xizhan nodded and said in a deep voice.

Chao Yin and Ximing couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this. He hadn't informed his father about this matter in advance, but why did he seem to have a clear understanding of this matter?

"You don't have to be surprised. As the saying goes, know a woman better than a father. But you don't have to worry about it because of this, and Father is only guessing. I can be at ease with your work, as long as there's no evidence... Xigu won't be able to do anything to you. " Prince Xizhan seemed to have seen through Princess Chao Yin's thoughts as he spoke in a deep voice.

" Father's foresight is indeed godly. It's a pity that it allowed that girl, Chao Ge, to escape calamity... " Princess Chao Yin muttered to herself.

"Are you afraid that Xigu will make that girl Chao Ge the next crown prince?" Xizhan frowned slightly and asked.

"That's right. His Majesty doesn't seem to want to go against China. If he makes Chao Ge the crown prince, it means that he's expressing his stance. I'm worried that something will happen." Chao Yin voiced out her worries.

"Your worries are not without reason. Although I don't know much about that girl Chao Ge, However, judging from the rumors, this Chao Ge has an extremely high reputation in the Tidal Division of the Heavenly Sea Lake. His reputation is even higher than Prince Xi Ning's. It can be seen that he isn't an ordinary person... "Xi Zhan nodded and echoed.

"So, we can't delay this matter any longer. We must quickly determine the position of the crown prince as soon as possible." Chao Yin spoke in a low voice.

"Then what do you think?" Xi Zhan asked.

"What I mean is to encourage the Elders Pavilion to use the future and benefits of the Tidal Royal Clan as a condition to force His Majesty to select a candidate for the throne as soon as possible." Chao Yin said indifferently.

"This is not difficult. The Pavilion of Elders uses the interests of the Tidal Royal Kingdom as the benchmark. There's no reason for them to provoke the wrath of the Flower of Evil just to support an outsider princess. Furthermore, my father has been working hard for many years. My words still hold a certain weight. As long as I appeal to reason and promise great benefits... There shouldn't be too much of a problem." Xi Zhan rubbed his chin and spoke in a low voice.

"Since Father has said so, then I'll be completely at ease." Princess Chao Yin lightly smiled and spoke in a soft voice.

"You must remember, the King's Path is the most taboo, indecisive. Back then, it was precisely because father cared too much about family that he missed the opportunity. I don't want you to repeat the same mistake. Even if you become the crown prince in the future, this Chao Ge cannot be left behind for long... " Xizhan said with a solemn expression.

"I understand. However, Prince Xining had just died by accident, so it wasn't good to attack Chao Ge now. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to trouble Father... " Princess Chao Yin's gaze seemed to be somewhat cold, like a venomous snake in the shadows.

Xizhan nodded and said in a deep voice, "You're my father's most beloved daughter, so you can't be said to be troublesome or troublesome. If you're able to ascend the throne, then I won't have any regrets in this lifetime."

"Father, there's something that I don't understand, but I don't know if I should ask." Princess Chao Yin's gaze was gloomy, and she seemed to be hesitating.

"There is nothing between us father and daughter that cannot be asked, just say it." Xizhan shook his head and spoke in a deep voice.

"Why do you insist on supporting your son to become the crown prince instead of initiating a coup and becoming the crown prince by yourself?" Princess Chao Yin said word by word.

"There are too many factors involved, although I don't want to admit it, Xigu's strength is stronger than mine, even if it's by relying on the Tidal Decree. At most, we can only fight to a draw. If a coup were to occur, even if we were lucky enough to win, the Tidal Kingdom would probably be shattered because of this. We might even be accused of treason. On the other hand, his father was already old, and even if he really became the Tidal King, he could still be king for a few years. What's the meaning of this?" Xizhan was silent for a long time before he sighed.

Chao Yin didn't say anything when he heard this, and he merely nodded while seeming to be lost in thought.

What Xi Zhan said was a very realistic question. If he wasn't able to obtain the throne when he was young, then it wouldn't be very possible for him to obtain the throne in the future.

"Father is already so old, and his thoughts are no longer on this. The regrets of the past can only be regrets. However, I'm glad that you've worked hard, so I don't have to worry too much about you. You don't look like that useless little brother of yours. I hope you can treat him well if he inherits the throne in the future... "Xizhan's gaze was gentle as he spoke.

"Royal father, don't worry. Little Yu is my biological little brother. In the future, I will naturally treat him well." Princess Chao Yin nodded and promised.

"Then father will be completely at ease. Regarding the matter of being forced to become the crown prince of Xigu Li, when the appropriate time comes, I will do it as soon as possible." Xizhan nodded with satisfaction and spoke in a light voice.

"Then Father will rest first, and I'll take my leave first. I'll pay you a visit another day."

After saying this, Princess Chao Yin did not stay in the War King Manor for long. He was a powerful candidate for the future crown prince, but there were many eyes staring at him. Normally, she would try her best to avoid drawing criticism from others.

On the other hand, King Xigu had also rushed to the residence of Eastern Origin Palace. Just as he was about to step in, he ran into Chao Ge, Xiyun, and the others who were in a hurry.

Princess Chao Ge and Xiyun had obviously heard some rumors. When they saw King Xigu personally rushing over, they also had a trace of an ominous premonition in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, what exactly happened to Brother King?" Princess Chao Ge hurriedly walked forward. Because she was too nervous, her voice seemed to be trembling slightly.

"Nephew Xi Ning, he..."

King Xigu's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look straight into Chao Ge's burning gaze.
