Starting with a cub, the superpower boss becomes the richest man by lying flat

Chapter 119 As long as I ascend the throne, who dares to say anything?
"Your Highness!" Mo Ziyuan stood in the study of the Prince's Mansion and saluted the Prince.

"Alright, there's no one else here, let's all make ourselves at ease!" The prince dropped the paperwork in his hand, crossed his hands under his chin, and looked at him with interest. "I heard that your love star is moving, and you're going to get married?"

"Your Highness, what are you talking about?" Mo Ziyuan asked in surprise.

"Why? Didn't your father tell you when you got back? The daughter of the Ding'an Marquis is famous throughout the capital, and many families want to marry her! I heard that the Duke's wife beat out several other ladies and snatched a chance for you to meet her. What do you think of her?"

Mo Ziyuan was at a loss for words. "Your Highness, please stop teasing me. I've never even met a young lady from the Ding'an Marquisate."

Seeing his embarrassment, the Crown Prince finally decided to let him go. He straightened his face and said to him, "Marquis Ding'an is Lao Liu's man. Revealing this about you at this time is clearly a trap for us. Whether you agree or not, there will be no result in the end."

"I understand," Mo Ziyuan replied.

"I've got another piece of gossip to tell you," the prince suddenly revealed a mysterious smile, beckoned him, and after he leaned over, whispered in his ear, "It's said that the girl has found a lover and has been making a fuss in the mansion for quite some time. She says she'll run away if you force her to marry you!"

Mo Ziyuan: “…” Is this still my wise and powerful Crown Prince? Why has he become so gossipy?
"I already have a woman I love, so I won't marry anyone else."

"Oh? The girl you like? Who? Do I know her? Which family's daughter is she?"

Seeing the gossipy look in the Crown Prince's eyes, Mo Ziyuan felt a headache. After thinking for a moment, he decided to answer honestly. He cleared his throat and said, "It's Miss Lin."

"Miss Lin..." His Royal Highness nodded in understanding. "Miss Lin is indeed quite good, and she is also my son's great benefactor! You must cherish her well. She has me as her backer now. If you do anything to let her down, I will stand up for her."

"Your Highness, don't worry. I am deeply in love with Miss Lin and will never do anything to let her down." Mo Ziyuan almost swore an oath to the heavens.

"That's good." The Crown Prince was satisfied and only then began to talk about the real business. "Look at this, this is the news I just received."

Taking the document that the prince had just read from the table, Mo Ziyuan frowned tightly, "Is this... news true?"

"Even if it's not true, it shouldn't be much different."

"The harem is now controlled by the imperial concubine, and the third prince controls more than half of the imperial guards. If something happens to His Majesty at this time, we will be in a passive position." Mo Ziyuan said.

"Although my father's body is on the verge of collapse, he can still hold on for a while. I want to ask you, how are the preparations outside?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had an extremely indifferent expression when he talked about the emperor, and it didn't sound like he was talking about his own father at all.

"Your Highness, rest assured. Thirty thousand troops have been assembled. Gao Yong and Chu Yu are with them. They will definitely arrive at the palace within an hour to defend the king."

"That's good. Tomorrow night it will be Gu Shiji's turn. If the Third Brother can hold his temper, we can still delay it a little longer. If he can't, then it's time for us to give it our all."

"Your Majesty should also pay attention to your own safety."

"They probably don't have the guts to openly harm me in the palace, and they've been rehearsing their tricks for so long, it's time to practice them." The Crown Prince's eyes darkened. "I'm afraid they'll do something sneaky. Your Highness knows they'll do anything to secure that position."

"Are you afraid they will poison me?"

Mo Ziyuan nodded and then shook his head. "I'm afraid it's not just poison, but some other drug that could cause someone to lose their true nature, causing Your Highness to make a serious mistake without even realizing it."

"What you mean is..." The prince suddenly understood what Mo Ziyuan said, and his face instantly became gloomy.

"Your Highness needs to be more careful."

"I know, I won't take it lightly."

In the Imperial Concubine's Jade Palace.

"Mother, we must make sure this time that everything goes perfectly. More than half of the court officials have already sided with the crown prince. Without a sufficient reason, we cannot depose him." The third prince said viciously as he sat opposite Concubine Feng.

"My son, please be patient. Your mother has already arranged everything in the palace. You only need to appear in Your Majesty's bedroom with the court officials at the right time." Concubine Feng looked over and over at her nail polish-coated fingers, looking for any places that were not trimmed to your satisfaction, and said casually.

"Mother, didn't I tell you that I can't be in charge of this matter in person? I have already made plans for the person to take the court officials to my father's bedroom, so you don't need to worry about this matter." The third prince waved his hand impatiently.

"Who are you looking for?" Concubine Feng looked up at her son.

"I have someone tipped off the sixth prince. I believe that he will be eager to go over and catch the adulterer that day. Then, let my good eldest brother and good sixth brother perform a dog-eat-dog show together!" The third prince seemed to have seen the expected scene, and his eyes flashed with greed and excitement.

Looking at her son like this, Concubine Feng felt a chill in her heart. Can he really succeed?
"Mother, I forgot to ask, who did you arrange in the palace?" The third prince was immersed in the impending success. After a while, he noticed that Concubine Feng's expression was different, and he couldn't help but ask in his heart.

"Since we want to kill the prince, we naturally need to choose someone of importance. Mother chose Concubine Zhao." Concubine Feng gritted her teeth and replied. In any case, she had no way out. The only thing she could do now was to give it her all and hope that their plan would succeed.

"Mother!" The Third Prince slammed the table when he heard Concubine Zhao. "Didn't my son tell Concubine Zhao not to be touched? Why did Mother have to look for her?"

"Why? Why do you say that? My son, you will ascend the throne in the future. What kind of woman do you want when that day comes? Why must you choose a withered and decrepit woman like that? Once the news leaks out, how will the people of the world view you, the emperor?" Concubine Feng's voice also became sharp.

"As long as I ascend the throne, who would dare to say such things? I don't care. I just want Concubine Zhao to be well. If mother can't do it, then my son's plan will probably have to be carried out by someone else. At most, it will only take a few days. Let the old man live a little longer."

"You, you..." Concubine Feng's eyes were almost spitting fire, her face was ashen, and her chest was heaving violently.

"Mother, please choose another candidate! Once you have chosen, please let your son know." The Third Prince ignored Concubine Feng who was almost fainting from anger. He stood up, dusted off his robes and left.
