Chapter 1268 Hopeless
As soon as the boy walked in, he stared at Yan Li with great curiosity.
"Sister, he is the third prince Huangfu Xiong." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pointed at the steady young man and introduced him.
"Huangfu Xiong greets Sister Yan." The third prince took a step back and bowed to Yan Li.
Yan Li: ...
The third prince seems steady, but unexpectedly he is quite outgoing.
Yan Li nodded to the third prince.
"Xier, why did you come here so early?" Yan Li looked at the prince and asked.
"I was thinking of bringing my third brother here to show you, sister. Do you think he is suitable to be the emperor?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at Yan Li.
Yan Li: ...
It turns out that the third prince is the one chosen by Xier to be the next crown prince.
I had thought it was the foodie Fifth Prince.
"Royal brother, what are you talking about? You are the crown prince and will definitely be the future emperor. How can I become the emperor?" The third prince was stunned when he heard this.
"Third brother, to be honest with you, I am destined to leave with my sister, but our country cannot be without a crown prince. I think you are the most suitable." The crown prince looked at the third prince and said.
"Royal brother, you said you were leaving? You won't come back?" The third prince and the fifth prince were both surprised when they heard this.
"Why wouldn't I come back? This is my home. I will come back to visit if I have the chance." The prince said with a smile.
In fact, what the prince was thinking in his heart was that where my sister is is my home.
If my sister doesn't come back in the future, I probably won't come back either.
"Royal brother, can you not leave? I just want to be a leisurely prince. I never thought about sitting in that position." The third prince's eyes were full of pleading.
After all, in his heart, the prince is his support. If the prince leaves, his mountain will collapse!
"Don't worry, third brother. Before you leave, I will clear some obstacles for you. And fifth brother, he only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. You have to take care of him in the future." The prince patted the third prince's shoulder and advised earnestly.
"Fifth brother is still lucky. There is always someone standing in front of him no matter what." The third prince looked at the fifth prince with envy in his eyes.
"It's because he is young." said the prince with a smile.
"Royal brother, why don't you choose the second royal brother? He has been eyeing that position." The third prince was very puzzled.
"My second brother is a deep-minded and suspicious person. Once he sits in that position, he won't tolerate you and Yi'er, let alone my fourth brother who can't stand up." The prince sighed after he finished speaking.
"Oh, by the way, there is also my fourth brother. It's a pity for him... otherwise he would definitely be more suitable to be an emperor than me." The third prince sighed.
I am completely focused on the mountains and rivers, and I really don't have much interest in the throne.
"Xier, can you be so cruel as to kill the second prince?" Yan Li looked at the prince.
"Sister, I don't think I can do it." The prince said after hesitating for a while.
Yan Li: ...
It seems that Xier hasn't changed at all and can't bear to be cruel to her relatives.
Didn’t he die in his previous life because he was kidnapped by family ties?
"In that case, then you should take me to meet the Fourth Prince." Yan Li realized that if the Crown Prince left, neither the foodie Fifth Prince nor the seemingly steady Third Prince would be a match for the Second Prince.
"Sister Yan, you figured it out, right? I am not fit to be the emperor at all." The third prince's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"In that case, since it's still early, let's go visit fourth brother's house." said the prince.
"The Fourth Prince doesn't live in the palace?" Yan Li was a little surprised when he heard that.
"Fourth brother has difficulty walking, so he moved out of the palace a long time ago." After the prince said this, everyone walked towards the outside of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
As soon as Yan Li and the others walked out of the Imperial Master's Mansion, they ran into the little princess who was coming over.
"Brother Prince, where are you going?" The little princess still looked cute.
"Take my sister out for a walk." The prince replied.
"Oh, I'll go find my cousin first." The little princess said and walked towards the Imperial Master's Mansion.
Yan Li: ...
The little princess suddenly came to look for Juner, she must have some plan.
But after all, it was in the Imperial Master's Mansion, so she shouldn't dare to do anything too outrageous.
Yan Li thought about this and followed the Crown Prince and the others towards the Fourth Prince's residence.
"I don't know why, but I always feel creepy when I see Qi'er now." The Fifth Prince complained after the little princess entered the Imperial Master's Mansion.
"Be careful of her in the future." The prince looked at the fifth prince and said.
A group of people came to the residence of the Fourth Prince.
“Your Highness, I am not stopping you. It is the Fourth Prince who has ordered that he not to see anyone.” The steward of the Fourth Prince’s mansion looked embarrassed.
"Go tell him that I have brought a miracle doctor with me." The prince said to the butler.
"Miracles doctor? Okay, I'll go right away." After the butler said this, he quickly ran towards the Fourth Prince's mansion.
"Sister, this is the only way to see him." The prince looked at Yan Li embarrassedly.
"It's okay." Yan Li smiled and shook her head.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince invites you in." Soon, the butler came out excitedly.
"Let's go." The prince nodded and led everyone inside.
"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince has been acting a little strange lately. Please give him some guidance." The butler looked worried.
"What's going on?" The prince felt something was wrong when he heard it.
"A few days ago, the Fourth Prince's fiancée, Miss Feng, came to visit him. After Miss Feng went back, the Fourth Prince became unwell. He shut himself up and looked extremely painful." said the butler.
"I understand." The prince said and continued to walk inside.
"Fourth brother." After entering the Fourth Prince's courtyard, the Crown Prince walked towards him who was sitting on a chair.
The Fourth Prince raised his head and looked at the Crown Prince, his eyes suddenly reddened.
"Fourth brother, what happened? Tell me." The prince squatted down and looked at him.
"Royal brother, wuwuwu..." The Fourth Prince hugged the Crown Prince and began to cry in grievance.
Yan Li: ...
I didn’t expect that the fourth prince would be such a crybaby!
A crying emperor is more outrageous than a foodie emperor, okay?
The Foodie Emperor: When he encountered something he couldn’t handle, he would eat a chicken leg while attending court.
Crybaby Emperor: Whenever I encounter something I can’t handle, I cry and look for my brother!
It seems that this country is hopeless!
"Fourth brother, what happened?" After the Fourth Prince had cried enough, the Crown Prince looked at him gently and asked.
"Royal brother, Feng Ying came to me a few days ago and broke off the engagement with me. She said that I was a useless man and she didn't want to spend her whole life with a useless man." The Fourth Prince said.
"Your marriage was arranged by our father. She has no right to break off the engagement with you." The prince said coldly.
"She came with the imperial edict from our father to cancel the engagement." The Fourth Prince said this and lowered his head.
"What? It was actually my father who agreed to it. I'll go find him. Sister, sister, give me some explosive scrolls." The prince was very angry.
