Upon hearing this, the prince's expression suddenly changed.

He thought of what his uncle had said. The old emperor had indeed issued an edict at that time, but he wanted Zhu Feng to be the next emperor of Yan, not him, the prince.

However, the edict had been destroyed by the uncle, which the prince was not worried about. Anyway, the thing was gone, and even if Zhu Feng heard something, he had nothing to fear.

Just when he had this idea, he suddenly thought of a question, how did Zhu Feng know about this?

Since the uncle had already destroyed the edict, how did she know about it?
Is it possible that there is another problem in this?
Uncle Guo didn't destroy the edict at all, but he still resented himself for what happened before. He even told Zhu Feng about the incident and gave it to her along with the edict?

With such thoughts, the prince's face became increasingly ugly.

Seeing the change in his expression, Zhu Feng smiled and spoke.

"Didn't you come to us to talk? Why are you silent now? Do you not want to talk? If that's the case, then we won't bother you and leave first."

Just when Zhu Feng stood up and was about to leave, the prince hurriedly spoke and stopped him.

"Wait a moment!"

After pondering for a moment, he slowly spoke.

"Just tell me directly what I have to do so that you don't follow me to fight for the throne. I will do everything in my power to satisfy you, as long as you make concessions!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Feng couldn't help laughing.

"Why do you think I will agree to you? Besides, do you think you have something that I desperately want to get?"

Before coming, Zhu Feng had an idea in his mind and guessed that he was most likely coming to see her because of this matter.

Sure enough, the situation was the same as she expected.

The prince's face became a little ugly. He knew that Zhu Feng would not agree easily, but he did not expect that she would refuse so simply. It seemed that it was almost impossible for him to make her give up.

Seeing that he remained silent, Zhu Feng continued.

"I have already said that we still need to read the old emperor's edict. Does the prince know what it said at that time?"

Without waiting for his answer, Zhu Feng grinned.

"I think you know it, and you know even more clearly that it's not your name written on it, that's why you're so anxious."

According to the prophecy of the Demon Emperor Bell, Zhu Feng is the wise emperor who will lead Dayan to a more prosperous future. It is precisely because of this that the old emperor has expressed his intention many times to make her the next emperor.

He even left the spirit of the Demon Emperor Bell on her body in the form of a tattoo.

All this is enough to explain everything.

It's just that the prince couldn't accept all this, so he had such a big reaction.

The prince pretended to be calm and did not look at all panicked.

He felt that if Zhu Feng really had an edict in his hand, he would have taken it out long ago, so why would he say so many words in front of him?

Now that she has said so much, she still has no intention of taking action. There is only one thing to explain. She has only heard about it and has not seen the real edict.

Thinking of this, his expression softened a lot. "Whether it's my name or not, it's not up to you. If you really have an edict, you can take it out. In this case, I will take the initiative to give up my position and no longer compete with you!"

The words were said so firmly that Zhu Feng was a little surprised, but she still asked.

"Are you sure? If you can do what you said, how about I allow the Prime Minister to summon all the officials to witness it in person?"

The moment he heard this, the prince was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Zhu Feng was so confident. Could it be that she really had any evidence in her hands?
Otherwise, how to explain all this?
It seemed that Zhu Feng was fully prepared when he came this time, and he had to deal with it carefully.

The prince sneered, showing that he didn't care.

"Forget it, who knows how you got the imperial edict from my father? Your methods are very clever. You can win over the prime minister, but I don't know what methods you used!"

At this time, Yuwen Honghao spoke.

"I am loyal to your empress not because I have received any benefits, but because I know very well that your empress is a rare wise master and Dayan's hope for the future. Naturally, I will have the right to assist you!"

Now that this situation has arrived, Yu Wen Honghao simply expressed his true thoughts.

"Your Highness, to be disrespectful, except for the empress, no matter who sits on the throne, I will not be loyal to you, and the same goes for the soldiers in my hands!"

Unexpectedly, he would dare to say such words, and the prince suddenly became furious.

"You are so presumptuous, so arrogant, and don't take me seriously at all. Do you think I can't do anything to you, so you use this to blackmail me?"

Yuwen Honghao shook his head and said firmly.

"I don't dare, I just express my feelings directly and want to express my thoughts!"

"Besides, I am loyal to the empress. Naturally, I cannot have any second thoughts and be loyal to other people. I think His Highness the Crown Prince should know this better than anyone else!"

After speaking, Zhu Feng and Yu Wen Honghao stood up and left directly.

They had already made it very clear what they needed to say. As for whether the prince could listen to it or not, that was his business and no one else needed to worry about it.

Seeing the two people's backs disappear into reality, the prince angrily threw the tea cup in his hand to the ground, his face full of anger.

"This bitch actually dares to threaten me like this. How audacious!"

With the sound of the tea cup falling to the ground, Uncle Guo stepped into the study.

Seeing the prince's angry look, he also knew what happened. After all, when he came just now, he happened to see Zhu Feng and Yu Wen Honghao leaving here, so he naturally understood everything.

Seeing him coming, the prince calmed down the anger on his face and looked at his uncle.

"Uncle, are you sure you have destroyed all the edicts my father left before?"

Uncle Guo nodded and agreed.

"Of course it's true. I've told you before. Do you think I lied to you on purpose?"

Before he could speak, Uncle Guo continued speaking with a somewhat displeased look on his face.

He knew very well that when the prince asked himself this, he clearly doubted the authenticity of his words. Otherwise, how could he suddenly ask such a sentence?
"You don't know about this matter. If I wanted to hide it from you, how could I tell you? Or are you worried about what happened last time and are you afraid that I will take the opportunity to retaliate against you?" (End of chapter)
