Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

The third prince looked at this group of younger brothers coldly, with a murderous look on his face.

"good, very good, excellent!"

The Third Prince narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Do you think you can unite to deal with me?"

"Humph, trash is trash after all, just a bunch of good-for-nothings!"

"Tomorrow, the Sizhou troops will enter Kyoto City. Just wait."

After saying this, the third prince flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

It would be unwise to come into conflict with all the princes now.

First make a harsh statement, wait for the Sizhou troops to enter the city, and then deal with these people one by one.

Chu Ning looked at the third prince's departing back, a hint of amusement appearing on his face.

Just when I was worrying about how to get these princes to unite, the third prince came to help.

After this incident, the princes must have seen the true face of the Third Prince.

It will be easier next time.

As soon as the Third Prince left, Chu Ning said calmly: "My fellow princes, I'm sure you have seen Third Brother's attitude. If he becomes the Crown Prince, do you think he will let us go?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of all the princes changed.

They are not fools, so how could they not understand the meaning of the third prince's words before he left.

This is clearly an attempt to torture them to death.

Once the third prince becomes the crown prince, they will have no way to survive.

The fifth prince who ranked the highest was a little panicked, but he still suppressed his inner emotions and frowned and asked:

"Eighteenth brother, tell me, what are you going to do?"

The Ninth Prince also asked hurriedly: "Yes, since we are all gathered together tonight, we should come up with a set of rules."

Among the crowd, only the two of them ranked high. If the Third Prince wanted to deal with people, he would definitely give priority to them.

Things had come to this point and they had no choice but to panic.

The other princes looked at each other and then looked at Chu Ning.

Chu Ning said calmly, "Fifth brother, Ninth brother, don't worry. The only way to save your life is to stop Third brother from becoming the crown prince."

"As long as he is not the crown prince, he won't dare to kill us if we unite."

"But if he becomes the crown prince, the situation will be different. He will use his power and troops to eliminate us one by one!"

"So, this prince suggests that when all the officials jointly recommend the third brother as the crown prince, all of us should oppose it."

"Even if the emperor protects the third brother, he would not dare to risk the disapproval and make the third brother the crown prince."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fifth prince's eyes lit up.

If the third brother cannot become the crown prince, then he has a chance.

This matter is of great benefit to him.

"Eighteenth brother is right!"

The fifth prince said loudly: "If we don't unite together, we will definitely be defeated one by one by the third brother."

"The only way for us to save our lives is to unite and stop our third brother from becoming the crown prince. I believe that you brothers should know how to choose."

The already nervous Ninth Prince saw that things had taken a turn for the better and quickly nodded and agreed: "This prince also agrees to this matter!"

These two guys are really cunning.

Preventing the third prince from becoming the crown prince is in their best interest, so of course they will be the first to stand up and support him.

Chu Ning looked at the two of them deeply, then shifted his gaze to the eleventh prince standing beside him.

The shrewd Eleventh Prince raised his eyebrows and frowned and asked, "If we stop the third brother from becoming the crown prince, who is most likely to become the crown prince?

Eighteenth brother, you openly want us to deal with the third brother, but in fact you are thinking about yourself, right?"

This guy is quite smart!

You really underestimated him if you could see through even this.

Chu Ning, whose thoughts were exposed, did not show any surprise, but said calmly: "Eleventh Brother, you have to understand one thing, if you want to compete for the position of Crown Prince, you must have a life!

I know that all of you brothers are eyeing the position of crown prince, but what if you are eliminated by my third brother before the position of crown prince is decided?

Let's deal with the third brother first. At least we can save our lives, and there may be a chance for us to become the crown prince in the future.

How can you talk about the position of crown prince if you have lost your life?

Yes, I admit that I have my own calculations in joining forces with you, but saving your lives and giving you the opportunity to compete for the position of Crown Prince, isn't that enough?"

These heartfelt words left the Eleventh Prince speechless.

He didn't expect Chu Ning to admit it on his own initiative.

The sincerity in his words made him unable to refute.

Taking a deep breath, the Eleventh Prince sighed, "Eighteenth Brother is right. Although the position of Crown Prince is good, you also need to be alive."

"This matter, the king agrees!"

Chu Ning laughed: "Brother Eleven made the right choice!"

After he finished speaking, his eyes fell on the twelfth prince.

The twelfth prince glanced at the fifth prince and the others, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Since the third brother doesn't want to give us a chance to live, for the sake of my own protection, of course I can't let him become the crown prince as he wishes!"

Whether for the sake of saving his life, his own future, or the chance to become the crown prince, he must stop the third prince.

No matter who becomes the crown prince, the third prince cannot be one.

The murderous intent in the Third Prince's words just now had already made him feel threatened.

Chu Ning looked at the submissive Twelfth Prince, nodded slightly, and his eyes fell on the Thirteenth Prince.

The 13th Prince, who had a rough appearance and a tall stature, said in a deep voice, "Since all the brothers agree, I have no objection either."

Compared to other princes, the Thirteenth Prince seems much simpler. His personality is somewhat similar to Ran Ming's. He is devoted to martial arts and doesn't pay much attention to political affairs.

However, this time the Third Prince was so powerful that even he felt threatened.

No matter how strong a person's martial arts are, he cannot defeat thousands of soldiers.

Although the Thirteenth Prince is rough, he is not stupid and certainly will not let the Third Prince become the Crown Prince.

Chu Ning patted the Thirteenth Prince on the shoulder and said with a smile, "It's best that Thirteenth Brother thinks this way. Only by stopping Third Brother can we survive!"

After a pause, he looked at the remaining fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth princes.

The four of them looked at each other, and then said in unison: "We should work together to stop the third brother from becoming the crown prince!"

Chu Ning laughed: "With the concerted efforts of all the brothers, this will surely succeed!"

"but!"

Chu Ning's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "If anyone changes sides or remains neutral at a critical moment, don't blame me and the other princes for taking action against him first."

"Today's matter ends here. When the Sizhou troops arrive in Beijing tomorrow, Third Brother will take action the day after tomorrow. When you return, my brothers, please make preparations in advance."

In fact, he had already known the news just revealed by the Third Prince, and now he was just following the Third Prince's words.

When everyone heard that the Sizhou troops would be coming to Beijing tomorrow, their faces turned ugly and they all bowed and said goodbye.

Now that they have decided to join forces, the next step is of course to contact officials who support them.

This time, they would definitely not let the third prince become the crown prince.
