"What!?"
Upon hearing that Empress Gudu was gravely ill, the Crown Prince immediately wanted to visit her.
But on the way, the Crown Prince encountered Pan Hu, whom his father had brought back from the north, a creature capable of speech.
Pan Hu then told the Crown Prince all about the secret discussions that Kaihuang and Empress Gudu had in the sleeping chambers.
At that moment, the mind of the Crown Prince was a complete blank.
In the endless void, it seemed as if countless noises echoed around his ears.
Eventually, it all crystallized into that one sentence uttered by his father, "He is not like me."
Crown Prince Yang Ce knew that he was finished.
His mother actually wanted to replace him, the Crown Prince, with King Jin.
He had known that something was amiss with King Jin staying in the Capital all this time.
To think that King Jin would vie for the position of the Crown Prince through his mother, how despicable!
And his father was so biased too!
