The best ring

Chapter 1676: Overthinking

Seeing that the young emperor was unwilling to order the execution of the eldest prince, Guan Fei could not help but frowned and said in an unhappy tone: "Your Majesty, do you want to keep this trouble to threaten your throne? The eldest prince has already rebelled and will not give up easily. If you let him go, he will definitely rebel again, and he will become more confident."

"What should I do then?" The young emperor looked anxious and worried: "I don't want to give up this throne, but I don't want people to say that I ignored my father's instructions and killed my brothers."

Guan Fei frowned even deeper. He didn't expect that the young emperor would attach so much importance to the instructions of the previous emperor. He had no objection to any of his previous arrangements for him, but he was unwilling to give in on this matter.

This surprised Guan Fei quite a bit, but he didn't think it was inappropriate. After all, the young emperor was still young and it was normal for him to listen to his parents.

But if the young emperor didn't give in, how could he execute the one in prison?

Force the young emperor to issue an imperial edict?

Inappropriate.

Although he is now the one who has the final say in Fengliang City, not everyone actually submits to him. Many people still have opinions about him, but they are just enduring. If the news that he forced the little emperor to issue an imperial edict spreads, it is hard to guarantee that it will not arouse the rebellion of those people. At that time, it will definitely cause a big wave, which is not a good thing for him who has just taken power.

He can't force the little emperor to issue an edict, so he knows to try to persuade him.

But looking at the little emperor's firm expression, Guan Fei felt the difficulty of this matter.

"Guan Aiqing?" When Guan Fei was thinking about how to do this, the little emperor called him softly.

"What's the matter?" Because of his irritability, Guan Fei's tone was not very good.

The little emperor seemed to be frightened by Guan Fei's tone, shrinking his neck, with a little fear on his face.

Seeing the little emperor's expression, Guan Fei secretly reminded himself that he was still a child and he should be more careful about what he said. Thinking in his heart, he couldn't help but soften his tone and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you want to say?"

The little emperor still had a fearful expression on his face, and whispered, "Guan Aiqing, I think it's better for you to do this secretly."

"What is it?" Guan Fei didn't react for a while.

"It's about my eldest brother." The little emperor said innocently, "As long as you secretly chop off my eldest brother's head, others won't know that I killed my eldest brother, and no one will say that I don't listen to my father, and I don't have to worry about someone coming to steal my throne. How good is that."

The little emperor's words startled Guan Fei. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the little emperor, guessing the intention of the little emperor's words.

"Guan Aiqing, what's wrong with you?" The little emperor looked at Guan Fei with a confused face: "Is the method I said not good?"

Guan Fei did not speak, still staring at the little emperor, as if he wanted to see something from the little emperor's face.

The little emperor was frightened by Guan Fei's eyes, and his face showed a frightened expression again. He pouted his mouth, as if he was about to cry: "Guan Aiqing, the method I said is not good, just say it directly. I am so scared of you like this."

As he spoke, tears welled up in the little emperor's eyes.

Guan Fei saw the little emperor's expression, and then he restrained his eyes. He thought to himself that he thought too much. This little emperor is obviously just a child who knows nothing. How could he have any complicated thoughts? He may really just think that this method is good.

This is actually a good idea, but if this came from the mouth of the late emperor, Guan Fei would immediately understand that the late emperor was using him to do something shady. Afterwards, the late emperor would never admit that this matter had anything to do with him. Over the years, he, Guan Fei, had done countless such things for the late emperor and had also taken countless black pots. He was really familiar with this kind of thing.

So, when he heard the "suggestion" of the little emperor just now, Guan Fei reacted immediately. He even felt like he was facing the late emperor. The so-called opinions of the little emperor were too similar to the previous explanations of the late emperor.

Guan Fei even felt scared just now, as if he was facing the late emperor.

However, now that he saw that the little emperor was actually scared to tears by his eyes, Guan Fei felt that he had thought too much. This little emperor was just a child. How could he be as cunning as the late emperor? His so-called suggestion might have just come up with it suddenly, and he didn't think about so many other factors at all.

"Your Majesty, the method you mentioned is not bad, but I don't really want to do it this way." Guan Fei said.

Over the years, he had taken too many scapegoats for the previous emperor and didn't want to take them again, so he instinctively wanted to reject such an arrangement.

"Why?" The little emperor asked, "Do you have a better way, Mr. Guan?"

"This..."

Guan Fei was a little speechless. He really couldn't think of a better way. Since the little emperor said so, it proved that he was even less likely to directly issue an order to execute the eldest prince.

"Mr. Guan, anyway, this matter is handed over to you. Except that I can't issue an order to execute my eldest brother, everything else is up to you." The little emperor said to Guan Fei.

I just want you to issue an order! You don't need to worry about other things at all!

Guan Fei was quite annoyed, but he had no choice but to bow to the little emperor and said, "I understand, I'll take my leave."

After saying that, Guan Fei walked out of the palace, still thinking about how to deal with this matter.

The little emperor sat on the dragon throne, looking at Guan Fei's back, but suddenly showed a meaningful smile.

After leaving the palace, Guan Fei's mood did not improve, and he was even more depressed.

I thought this matter would not be too difficult, and I just needed to let the little emperor issue an order, but I never thought that the little emperor was unwilling to issue an order, which made things change.

Just as Guan Fei left the palace, his housekeeper whispered in his ear: "Sir, the man in the prison has been clamoring to see His Majesty, and he seems to have contacted people outside, asking the ministers to intercede for him in front of His Majesty, and he also bribed the relationship and wrote a letter to His Majesty."

As he said, the housekeeper handed a letter to Guan Fei.

Guan Fei took it and took a rough look, then tore the letter into pieces and threw it on the ground, with a sinister expression on his face.

This eldest prince must not be kept!

This matter cannot be delayed!

If it drags on for too long, something unexpected might happen, and the little emperor might be persuaded. Once the other party leaves the prison, it will be difficult to catch him again, and the other party will definitely hate him even more and will be more cautious next time.

Thinking of this, he asked the butler to come over and whispered to make arrangements.
