The waste prince is so fierce

Although Kangdi is old, he is still worried. He is worried about what kind of situation Li Quan, the variable, will stir up in Dakang after he closes his eyes.

He doesn't dare to gamble!

Because he found that Li Quan was now so outstanding that it was scary.

Therefore, while he was still alive, he decided to help the prince stabilize the rule of Dakang.

At least before the crown prince ascends the throne, he can control the situation and will not pose a threat to him.

Emperor Kang looked out the window and murmured, "Now that you are back, I will not let you leave again. Just stay in Kyoto and be a free and easy prince."

Kangdi closed his eyes, a hint of bitterness appearing at the corners of his mouth.

Although he is an emperor, he is also a father.

He also wanted to live a life where father was loving and son was filial.

But being born in a royal family, he was destined to have no chance of having such a life.

This is a kind of sadness.

He once thought that he could escape this fate, but he never expected that he would ultimately not be able to escape the fate of being trapped and dying in this deep palace.

It has to be said that most people in this world have huge ambitions.

However, there are also a very small number of people who are willing to be ordinary.

For example, Emperor Kang, or Li Quan.

It’s a pity that when he was young, Kangdi had already become accustomed to this kind of intrigue and deception environment, and he also had strong ambitions.

His ambition is even bigger and crazier than that of most royal families.

Therefore, even if Emperor Kang wanted to give up the fight for the supreme power, he was still driven by his huge ambition and chose to continue his conquests.

He didn't just want more power.

He also wanted to make Dakang the first empire in history established by a group of vassal states.

That's why he tried his best in this drama of winning the throne.

Unfortunately, by now, he was exhausted and no longer had the strength to resist.

But he still refused to give in.

Therefore, he wanted to find an opportunity to leave this opportunity to Crown Prince Li Ke.

However, he did not expect that these princes would be so discordant when he was seriously ill.

I wish I could divide the entire court right now!

After leaving the Yangshen Palace, Li Quan did not return home directly, but strolled around the palace, trying to calm his inner shock and confusion.

He understood that it was no coincidence that his father told him the news of his mother's disappearance.

There must be a deeper meaning behind this.

Perhaps, this was his father testing his attitude towards the throne; or perhaps, this was his father hinting at something to him.

Li Quan looked up at the starry night sky and took a deep breath.

He knew that he couldn't panic or get confused now, and needed to think carefully about what to do next.

At the same time, Emperor Kang's words echoed in his mind: "Quan'er, you need to know that the throne is not so easy to sit on. You need to have enough wisdom and means to control those court officials and ensure the eternal stability of Dakang."

Li Quan understood that Emperor Kang was reminding him that the throne had nothing to do with him and he should forget about it.

However, the fire in Li Quan's heart did not go out, but burned even more vigorously.

He knew that the fight for the throne was never a simple game, but a contest that required wisdom, courage, and determination. He took a deep breath, and a determined light flashed in his eyes.

He knew that he needed more strength and more support.

Li Quan was walking out when he was stopped by Li Hao: "Li Quan, the emperor has been seriously ill these days and has not seen anyone. He only saw you. What did the emperor say to you?"

Li Hao looked at Li Quan with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through Li Quan.

Li Quan smiled and said, "I didn't say anything. What else can father tell me? But Fifth Brother seems to be a little strange recently. Fifth Brother seems to be looking for something?" Li Hao's expression froze for a moment, then returned to normal, smiling and said, "Ninth Brother is really good at joking. Don't you know what I'm looking for?"

Li Quan shook his head and laughed. He no longer entangled with Li Hao and left.

"Li Quan!" Li Hao shouted.

Unfortunately, what responded to him was Li Quan’s receding back.

"Hmph..." Li Hao growled, clenched his fists, and smashed them hard into the stone lion beside him.

As soon as Li Quan left the palace, he ran into a dozen guards. The leader was a young man who looked to be about 22 or 23 years old, with fair and tender skin, red lips, and bright eyes. He looked like an exquisite sculpture, flawless and perfect, making people unable to help but indulge in him.

However, Li Quan felt that the beautiful face in front of him was very dazzling, and even made him want to tear it apart. He asked coldly: "Li Jiancheng, why did you bring so many people to my place?"

Li Jiancheng said with a smile: "Ninth brother, you misunderstood. How could I be disrespectful to you? I just came to give you a gift."

"Oh?" Li Quan raised his eyebrows and looked at him with interest: "Giving gifts? Then I would like to thank my seventh brother."

"Oh, you're welcome~" Li Jiancheng moved closer to Li Quan and lowered his voice: "Ninth brother, this gift is a hundred times more precious than the gifts you usually give to your eldest brother. Calculating the time, it should have been delivered to your house by now. You must keep it well. Otherwise, if you lose it, you will suffer a heavy loss! Haha——" He laughed twice, turned and left.

Looking at the direction where Li Jiancheng left, the anger in Li Quan's eyes grew stronger.

Li Jiancheng's sudden visit tonight was definitely not just to give him gifts. This matter was very strange, and Li Quan did not dare to take it lightly.

After thinking for a long time, Li Quan finally made up his mind.

"Someone come!" he called out loudly.

Immediately, Zhang Hu appeared beside him silently.

Li Quan ordered: "Send someone to find out what Li Jiancheng has been busy with during this period!"

"Yes!" Zhang Hu took the order and retreated.

Li Quan looked at the dark night sky with an unfathomable expression, and left after a long while.

That night, a young eunuch sneaked into a remote courtyard in the palace and knocked on the door.

Soon, footsteps were heard in the room, and then the door was opened.

A young girl stood inside the door, staring at the young eunuch warily and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" Her tone was stern, but her voice sounded soft and sweet, which did not arouse any disgust.

The girl has a slim figure, beautiful features, fair and delicate skin, slightly trembling long eyelashes, and watery eyes that look extremely pure and flawless.

The young eunuch looked at her with amazement in his eyes, and blurted out: "The girl is so beautiful!"

The girl was stunned for a moment, her pretty face quickly turned red, and she lowered her head shyly.

"Ahem!" The young eunuch covered up awkwardly, quickly collected his thoughts, and said seriously: "Miss, please rest assured. I am here on the orders of the emperor. I was instructed by the imperial decree to bring a gift to the master here."

After saying that, he handed over the gift box on the tray in his hand.
