Zhang Shi lowered her head and a smile appeared on her face, bur then she quickly put away her smile.
Soon, the two of them entered the inner hall.
At this moment) Emperor Yan was half-lying on the Imperial Consort s couch in the inner hall. He was extremely old and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Seeing Emperor Yan, Prince Anyang’s expression became a little uneasy.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward.
“Father!” he shouted softly. At the same time, he bowed.
However, Emperor Yan, who was on the chaise lounge, did not seem to hear him and did not respond.
A hint of nervousness flashed across Prince Anyang’s face.
After sortingout his emotions, he bowed again.
“Father-*” His voice was slightly louder than before.
Unfortunately, Emperor Yan still did not respond.
Panic rose in Prince Anyang’s heart. Just as he was about to shout for the third time, Emperor Yan finally moved.
Zhang Shi quickly went forward and helped Emperor Yan to lean slightly so that he could talk to the Prince Anyang more conveniently.
“Father…” Seeing that Emperor Yan was fine, Prince Anyang heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
Emperor Yan saw Prince Anyang’s expression and snorted again.
Then, he ignored the fear that flashed across Prince Anyang’s face and spoke. “Don’t worry, I haven’t finished my business yet. I won’t go so soon.” The moment these words were said, Prince Anyang’s expression changed drastically.
“Nothing will happen to you, you will live forever.” He quickly said.
Emperor Yan raised his head and glanced at Prince Anyang before smiling weakly.
“Forever? What kind of person can live for thousands of years?”
“Cough, cough…it’s just a dream of the emperors!”
“Besides, if 1 really live for thousands of years, then you…cough cough, do you still have a chance?”
Prince Anyang’s body trembled.
He immediately knelt on the ground.
“I do not dare to expect anything!” He quickly said.
“Hehe…” Emperor Yan laughed when he heard that.
“Alright.”
“Back then, the Imperial Consort schemed against me and gave birth to you.
You should be expectant.”
“Even if you don’ts, someone will force you to.11 After saying that, Emperor Yan looked at Prince Anyang.
Prince Anyang quickly lowered his head. At the same time, his heart was filled with fear.
What did his father say? He said that he was born after his mother schemed against him?
He even said that even if he didn’t have the heart to take the throne, his mother would still force him to fight for it?
All these years, his mother had indeed encouraged him to fight for the throne. However, he had always thought that his mother had done so for them to protect themselves.
But now, the answer his father gave him was different.
“Alright. 1 can make you the crown prince and even give you the throne.
However, 1 have three conditions.’1 Emperor Yan’s gaze did not stay on Prince Anyang for too long as he quickly continued.
As soon as these words were said, Prince Anyang, who had his head lowered, was shocked again.
His father actually wanted to negotiate with him:
Did the Imperial Perceptor have divine foresight, or did he know something?
Suppressing all kinds of chaotic emotions in his heart, Prince Anyang was silent for a moment before he barely regained his composure.
“Father, please speak.” He bowed to Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan glanced at Prince Anyang and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
“Firstly, after you ascend to the throne and take over the Great Yan, you can make your mother the Empress Dowager. However, you must suppress and clean up your mother’s family to prevent the relatives from interfering in politics.”
Prince Anyang was stunned.
Emperor Yan continued, “the Yin family’s power is far deeper and wider than you can see. Previously, I felt that the time had not come yet. In addition, the Yin family had placed their hopes on you, so 1 did not make a move on the Yin family.”
“But now…cough cough, I don’t have much time left.”
“You are also the best successor of the throne. This matter can only be done by you.”
“Letting you inherit the throne is actually a dangerous move for me.”
“After all, the Yin family has done you a favor, and the Imperial Consort is the mother who gave birth to you and raised you. And I have never been close to you.”
“But don’t forget. Murong Xuyang, you are my son, and the blood of the Murong Clan of rhe Great Yan flows in your veins. You are also the next emperor of the Great Yan.”
“Once you become the Emperor of the Great Yan, you will no longer be the son of your mother, the prince of the Yin Clan. You are the successor of the Murong family, the ruler of the people of the Great Yan.”
“You will bear the expectations of the people of the Great Yan, and the expectations of the ancestors of the Murong Family. You will become a loner like me.” At this point, Emperor Yan seemed to have thought of something as a trace of pain flashed across his eyes.
As for Prince Anyang, he was shocked when he heard this.
Was his father teaching him how to be the Emperor of the Great Yan?
“Tell me, after you ascend the throne, can you suppress and clean up the Yin
Clan?” Suddenly, Emperor Yan ended the meeting and looked at Prince Anyang with a sharp gaze.
Prince Anyang’s heart sank.
Then, he raised his head.
“Yes!” he replied.
The Yin Clan had indeed given him a lot of help, and even made him feel the warmth of a family member.
However, he knew it all along. He was not related to them.
Because he wanted to be the emperor, and the emperor had always been alone..
