I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

"You're right. In the entire Qin State, besides the Emperor, the most powerful people are the current Crown Prince and Princess. Now you are attached to the Princess. The Princess can be said to be your greatest support in the Qin State. This support is much more useful than any other. So it is a wise choice for your uncle to be under the Princess's tutelage. However, there is a difficulty and dilemma now, which is the threat from the Crown Prince. After all, according to the current situation, the Crown Prince and Princess are irreconcilable. Therefore, if you want to establish a solid foundation in the Qin State, you must overthrow the current Crown Prince. Otherwise, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the Qin State!"

**An then said.

"Your analysis is correct. The biggest threat now is indeed the Crown Prince. The princess who went to the northwest of Qin State is targeting the Crown Prince. She wants to use this action to severely overthrow the Crown Prince. At that time, she herself will become the Crown Prince. The entire Qin State can be said to be under the control of the princess, and I can also gain some benefits from it. However, it is said to be the biggest dilemma, which means that this Crown Prince is not easy to overthrow. This Crown Prince has great power, and sometimes I may not be able to withstand it. It's not that this Crown Prince is very capable, but the people behind him do have some capable people who are on par with me, so I can't defeat this Crown Prince. This is also a concern for me every time I go to the northwest of Qin State!"

Lin Chen expressed his inner thoughts to his best friend.

"Your concerns are not without reason. I've also heard of this prince. Although he isn't very capable, he has a large group of loyal and capable people behind him. These people are rare talents no matter where they are in Jincheng. As expected, the prince is still the prince. Now more people are willing to stand on the prince's side. After all, the prince is already on the throne. We just need to make sure he sits firmly on the throne. Generally speaking, the position of emperor is a sure thing. Therefore, it is much easier to secure the position of prince than to seize it. This is why others want to stand on the prince's side instead of the princess's. This is an important reason!"

**After listening to Lin Chen's words, An looked at Lin Chen and replied.

Lin Chen nodded. Actually, the prince wanted to win him over at the beginning, but he didn't want to go to the prince's side. After all, the princess had done him a favor, and he couldn't betray the princess. Instead, he went to the prince's side to serve him and then deal with the princess. He was not a conscienceless person, and he really couldn't do such an immoral thing.

But if you ask what an ordinary person would choose, then he would definitely choose the prince's side without hesitation. After all, the prince is now on the throne, and this is the prince's biggest advantage. It is not so easy for ordinary people to overthrow the prince, and they would easily fall. He had thought about this aspect at the time, but he really couldn't go against his conscience and betray the princess, and choose the prince's camp.

The most important thing is that his innate confidence as a time traveler does not allow him to do such a thing, because he feels that he is already a time traveler, and his own strategy or ability is relatively strong, at least much stronger than people of this era, so he feels that he can help the princess defeat the prince, and then let the princess seize the throne of the prince, and finally ascend to the throne. This was his original idea, but now think about it, it seems to be right. If he were asked to make the same choice again, he would still choose the princess's camp, and would not betray the princess and choose the prince's camp against his conscience.

"Your analysis of interests is very comprehensive and specific. I've considered everything you've said, but I don't think the Crown Prince is that scary. By describing him as terrifying, we're only undermining our morale and confidence. We should be cautious and maintain our confidence. Only by boosting our confidence can we have a chance to negotiate with the Crown Prince. If we've already lost in momentum and confidence before we even start, then there's no point in continuing. Don't you agree?"

Lin Chen looked at his best friend beside him and said.

**An didn't say anything, but just nodded to show his agreement with what Lin Chen said.

"Mr. Lin, I want to ask you, when we go to the northwest of Qin State, have you learned about the topography and landforms of that place, or the local customs and practices? I feel that we must understand these things well and not make any mistakes. After all, I heard that the northwest of Qin State was used to exile criminals in the past. The customs and folk customs of that place are relatively simple. This is a nice way to put it. To put it bluntly, the folk customs and folk customs of that place are relatively unruly and barbaric. They don't welcome outsiders. In addition, the topography and landforms of that place are relatively rugged and complex. It is easy for us to get lost there. So I think it is necessary for us to understand the local folk customs and folk customs, and try to buy a map of the northwest of Qin State in the capital. Although I don't know if there is such a map for sale, it would be best if we can find it, so that we won't be in a passive position!"

At this time, Zhang Xun spoke to Lin Chen who was standing beside him.

"You reminded me just in time. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about it. What you said is indeed very reasonable. We really need to understand the folk customs and habits of the people in the northwest of Qin State.

Without the topography of that place, if we rush there like this, we might end up in a very passive situation. However, the map of Northwest Street you mentioned is not sold in the capital. It is a highly confidential military secret and is unlikely to be circulated in the streets of the capital. If you want such a map, you can only ask the princess. The princess must have such a map. I can just tell her when the time comes! You don't have to worry about this matter. I will take care of it when the time comes!"
