Chapter 987: Chapter 987
Then let the organization be destroyed.
The current one is not the same as the old wig."
"I understand." The New Five nodded slightly, responding in a deep voice.
He felt that the new appointee was both easy and hard to fool, and now hearing Yu Ziqing speak , it was clear that the danger was higher than before.
No wonder this person repeatedly warned not to lie in front of that one.
Even if you want to deceive, every word must be true.
The New Five left and sought out the Crown Prince of Daqian.
Upon receiving the message, the Crown Prince actually didn't want anything more to do with the other party.
His position was now stable, and when Emperor Qian advanced to the Tenth Tier, entering a new realm, it was very likely he wouldn't waste time on state affairs anymore.
Becoming an irrelevant Supreme Emperor was already a high probability event. Updates are released by 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
With his current power, even the Second Prince has obediently been a guardian outside the capital, not returning, making his ascension almost certain.
But ever since the New Five told him those things last time, he was unclear and increasingly felt the ties were significant, feeling uneasy, and now he couldn't hold back.
Seeing the New Five, the Crown Prince remained outwardly calm, not hurriedly continuing his inquiry.
Instead, the New Five directly said.
"A new person has appeared.
I have reported to the lord that everything was No.1's madness, the fault of disrupting the organization.
We rectified the chaos and stabilized the organization again.
The lord bears no grudge about the past and particularly values you.
The command is to help you ascend smoothly."
The New Five spoke with some emotion, seeming to express that No.2 was lucky, just happening to encounter the emergence of the new lord.
The Crown Prince hearing this felt increasingly something was amiss.
After all these years, how could he not know when the organization could tolerate traitors?
Even if he could argue it wasn't betrayal, the actions certainly fell outside the tolerance threshold.
Cutting ties would be good; if they became enemies, all the better.
Because a White Water Egg had already revealed once that he was also a White Water Egg, once that matter passed, a second revelation would be meaningless.
If he was irreconcilable with the White Water Egg organization, with disputes out in the open, his position as Crown Prince would be even more stable.
But now, he just felt, was the other side setting him up, not wanting him to have it easy.
The New Five seeing the Crown Prince silent, also remained silent.
His mind recalled the conversations with Yu Ziqing, the warnings, and roughly guessed the Crown Prince's thoughts.
He coldly laughed, chuckled and said.
"No.2, do you not believe your position as Crown Prince is unshakeable?
Throughout the Three Divine Dynasties, how many emperors succeeded as Crown Princes?
You must be far more aware of the intricate details than me, and you should be very clear about them.
Emperor Qian's mind is deep, and you should know far better than others.
Of the things seen on the surface, have they ever been the real reason?
Do you think Emperor Qian is that easy to fool, and that the Petitioning Drum sounding means the words were true?
Or do you believe Emperor Qian pampers you, protects you, and safeguards your reputation?
Or perhaps you think Emperor Qian merely smooths over everything for the sake of political stability, national fortune stabilization, as in the past, easily brushed aside.
If you truly thought this way, you wouldn't have come to see me this time."
The Crown Prince was silent, having had his concerns hit on the mark.
It seemed on the surface to be for protection, so that matter was suppressed.
In reality, it was to stabilize the national fortune, allowing Emperor Qian to advance smoothly.
But the Crown Prince himself felt it couldn't be that simple.
Immediately following, he heard the New Five's tone firm, as if seeing through everything.
"Without our full support, at that time, you would have no chance of ascending smoothly.
Even if you ascend, you would have no chance to truly wield Emperor Qian's current power."
This statement resonated exactly with the Crown Prince's heart, he was fully aware.
Even if he ascends, the true authority remains in Emperor Qian's hands.
The New Five didn't wait for his response and continued.
"You know Emperor Qian best, but I see that you are far less insightful than we are.
Emperor Qian has great ambition and high aspirations.
Others think he advances to be the first to the Tenth Tier, but I don't see it that way.
In my view, he advances to become the strongest of the age.
To achieve this, advancing as Emperor Qian makes it easier.
To make it easier, that would weaken potential, and the strength after advancing would weaken.
He will definitely let you ascend before advancing, shedding the position of Emperor Qian.
With his own strength, he will cross all hardships, thus achieving the strongest foundation."
At this, the New Five stopped abruptly, merely giving a cold chuckle.
The Crown Prince still remained silent.
Yet he couldn't help but think of before when Emperor Qian smiled at him, not punishing, but granting greater authority, making him think his position was fully secured.
But with New Five's words, his heart skipped a beat.
His father with great ambition and high aspirations could indeed do such a thing.
Once solidifying the strongest foundation, his newly ascended Crown Prince, in name a new emperor, but in reality...
On the optimistic side, optimistically, he is named new emperor but is still Crown Prince in reality.
On the pessimistic side, the fact that he is a White Water Egg is a reason that can be used against him at any time.
At that time, with the strongest foundation, Emperor Qian could reclaim the position of Emperor Qian, again gaining the mightiest support, and certainly becoming the strongest of this age.
Even if by that time others also advance to the Tenth Tier, they cannot match Emperor Qian.
