Danger!Hou Men's legitimate daughter, she was cruel and ruthless after her rebirth

The emperor was shocked again, "If it's not the prince, who else?"

Shen Yu'an thought of Ming Shao Yin and felt bitter in her heart, "Your Majesty, please think about which of your sons is the most likely."

The emperor was lost in thought.

If he is assassinated, the biggest beneficiary will undoubtedly be the prince, who can directly ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

The actual person who died was Shen Huaizhi. With Shen Huai's death, the Shen family was destined to decline, and the person who could benefit from it was also the prince.

After all, the Shen family is the mother clan of the second prince. Even if the Shen family maintains neutrality on the surface, if they really face a choice, the Shen family may not support the second prince.

Just in case, from the prince's perspective, the Shen family is a political enemy that needs to be eliminated.

Besides the prince, who else can profit from this?

The emperor thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out, "Besides the prince, I can't think of anyone else."

"Then if the North Wing King has no intention of taking the throne and stays at the border without returning to the capital, what will happen if the prince ascends the throne?" Shen Yu'an asked.

The emperor's face darkened, "The prince is incompetent, narrow-minded, and has an unstable temperament. If he ascends the throne, within a few years, the country will most likely be riddled with holes and the people will be in dire straits. The Western Yuan Congress will take the opportunity to send troops, and war will break out."

"Yes! But this is only one aspect. When the prince ascends the throne, he will first eliminate dissidents and send the princes he thinks are threats, those who can and cannot be killed, to the fiefdom. Only one person can be trusted by the prince to stay in the capital. and entrusted them with important responsibilities.”

A person suddenly popped up in the emperor's mind, "Fourth Prince!"

"That's the fourth prince! The fourth prince's mother was from a humble background. It can be said that he has no maternal clan and no support. He has taken refuge in the prince from a very early age and only works for the prince alone.

The fourth prince is a low-key person and never takes the initiative to seek the limelight. If you don't pay careful attention, you will subconsciously ignore his existence.

It is because he is loyal to the prince and puts the prince at the center of everything. Compared with other princes, he can be trusted by the prince.

Once the prince ascends the throne, in order to stabilize the court, he must use someone he can trust and who is handy. The fourth prince is a good option.

If it were an open and honest fight, the fourth prince would have no chance of winning.

But if you take a roundabout way, support the prince to ascend the throne, be loyal to the prince, dedicate yourself to the prince, and gain the prince's trust and respect, over time, you will definitely be able to hold great power.

As the prince becomes emperor, it will be difficult for him to create a prosperous age and rebel against the imperial court. If the powerful fourth prince steps forward to overthrow the prince when the country is in turmoil, will he be able to win the throne? "

The emperor's mind was a little confused, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"It is worth mentioning that in General Ye's Mansion, the prince is supported on the surface, but the fourth prince is actually loyal. Once the Shen family declines and loses military power, the military power will most likely fall into the hands of General Ye. The emperor can send someone to investigate, and the fourth prince What is the relationship between your mother-in-law and the Ye family?"

The emperor had many women, and he had no memory of the fourth prince's biological mother, not even a vague figure in his mind.

If Shen Yu'an hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have known that the fourth prince could be related to General Ye's mansion.

If all this is true, the emperor knows very well that the fourth prince will eventually win the throne.

After all, having the mind to plan all this means that you are patient and forbearing enough, and you have the support of General Ye's mansion. When the time is right, with a little bit of work, you will definitely get what you want.

The emperor was deeply shocked. He never expected that such a person was hidden among his many sons.

If "Shen Huaizhi" hadn't said it, he wouldn't have known about it until his death. After all, the fourth prince would never show up while he was alive.

"How did you find out about the Fourth Prince?" Shen Yu'an naturally couldn't tell the truth. "My slave investigated the original assassination case and found out about Miss Jinfeng of Qunfang Tower."

"The Golden Phoenix girl in Qunfang House is the Princess of Xiyuan who was found by the fourth prince of Xiyuan and lived among the people."

"After finding out about Princess Xiyuan, a normal mind would suspect the fourth prince of Xiyuan, and suspect that it was a play between the two of them."

"My servant thought so at first, but if you think about it the other way around, the fourth prince of Xiyuan is indeed here to find your sister. He has never met Princess Xiyuan before, so who planned the assassination?"

"At this time, the servant noticed a person, a figure who connected the fourth prince of Xiyuan and Princess Xiyuan, Jiang Bingyue."

"The relationship between Jiang Bingyue and Princess Xiyuan is very complicated. It is said that they have known each other since childhood. Princess Xiyuan was adopted by Jiang Bingyue's mother."

"My servant went to check on Jiang Bingyue and Princess Xiyuan, and found out that Jiang Bingyue had a private relationship with the fourth prince, and that Jiang Bingyue had an ambiguous relationship with Ye Lin from General Ye's Mansion."

"The relationship here is complicated. I worked hard and found out something interesting about the fourth prince."

The emperor waited quietly for the next sentence, but saw Shen Yu'an picking up the tea and taking two sips. When she finished drinking, he asked casually, "Did you find anything interesting?"

"My servant discovered that the Princess of Xiyuan was fake, and the fourth prince of Xiyuan was deceived."

The emperor was in disbelief, "Seriously?"

"Seriously, our fourth prince has a big plan. He brought a fake princess here, probably as an inside job."

The emperor frowned, "What is he going to do?"

"It's possible that he was planning to become emperor in the future, send troops to the Western Yuan Kingdom, and cooperate with the fake princess inside and outside, so as to win the war."

"It is also possible that he wanted to use the fake princess to get married to the fake princess in the future and become husband and wife. Then he would borrow troops from the Western Yuan Kingdom to overthrow the prince who would become the emperor in the future, and he would ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor."

"If it's the latter, it may lead to the wolf entering the house. After all, the Western Yuan Kingdom is very ambitious, and it might be possible to capture our Beiyu Kingdom in the name of helping my son-in-law seize power."

"The fourth prince is very scheming and his plans are too big. I think he is a hidden danger. I'm afraid that when the time comes, the agency will be too clever and the Beiyu Kingdom will be wiped out."

"So my servant said that I want to borrow a prince from the emperor and kill him to nip the hidden danger in the bud."

"You can also use the fourth prince to create a crisis for the other princes, alert the North Wing King, and make him mistakenly think that the emperor is confused and realize that I am a big threat."

The emperor was lost in thought.

Shen Yu'an said no more. She thought hard about her plan and said everything that needed to be said. Whether it succeeds or not depends on the emperor.

After all, the fourth prince is the son of the emperor. It takes a lot of determination to really let go and kill him.

After a long while, the emperor spoke, "Everything depends on what you say. Where is the evidence?"

This was what Shen Yu'an was waiting for. He took out a stack of paper from his arms, unfolded it and presented it, "I have already prepared it. These are the secret relationships of the four princes. The emperor can send people to implement them one by one."

"The biological mother of the fourth prince is the illegitimate daughter of General Ye."

"The slave captured Jiang Bingyue's younger brother and confessed under severe torture, confirming that Princess Xiyuan was a fake." (End of Chapter)
