The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 260

[Chapter 260 Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet]

“Master, you are still as sharp as ever! Isn’t there an old saying? Ginger is still spicy when it is old!”

Lin Tian complimented.

But he also said this with most of his sincerity. After all, he still has a lot of respect for Yang Sheng, who has been in the officialdom for most of his life!

“You kid is just a poor mouth! There is not much that the teacher can teach you. The rest of the road depends on you young people to explore step by step! The officialdom is changing now, I am afraid that the world will change!”

Yang Sheng looked at the dense forest outside the window and said with some emotion.

Now the health of Emperor Zhengde is getting worse day by day. Although he did not show it, these old ministers have their own ways.

But the King of Chu has not been established until now. The eldest prince is still a prince. The only one who has been crowned as a king is His Royal Highness King Jing. His Royal Highness King

Jing is also a talented person. If he hadn’t been crowned as a king, I am afraid that most people in the court would stand on the side of King Jing’s camp. The

second prince is not interested in politics. He searches for romance all day long, but he has become a world-famous talent.

The Eighth Prince was born mediocre and advocated the use of force, so there were not many people on his side in the court.

Then the only one left was the Eleventh Prince, but the Eleventh Prince was less than ten years old. Even if he was talented, he could not take on this important task.

But the emperor’s intention was always unclear. He had not appointed a crown prince for a long time, and the eldest prince’s party was afraid that they would jump off the wall in desperation.

Just as Lin Tian and Yang Sheng were discussing, at this time in the Fengxi Palace in the palace.

“Damn Lin Tian! I underestimated him before!”

When the eldest prince saw Lin Tian today and saw his high-spirited appearance, he couldn’t help but feel angry.

He thought this was a small person who was not worth mentioning, so he didn’t take it to heart.

Unexpectedly, this person could directly destroy one of his fulcrums!

You know, most of his financial resources come from Li Tianlun. Unexpectedly, in just over half a month, Li Tianlun was pulled down by Lin Tian.

That’s right, the person behind Li Tianlun is the eldest prince!

To be precise, it should be the queen’s party.

“This Lin Tian must be disabled, but now we still have to stay calm and don’t alert the enemy!”

Just as the eldest prince was slapping the table frantically, a graceful middle-aged woman spoke up.

She was the current queen of Da Chu.

“This person has caused us such a great loss. Although Li Tianlun has been rescued, his whereabouts are still unknown! This is a loss of a good chess piece for us!”

The eldest prince was still a little indignant, but he gradually calmed down in the queen’s words and was no longer so crazy.

“As long as the person is saved, there is still room for maneuver! This Li Tianlun is the most afraid of death. You and I still have his handle in our hands. He can’t not come back!”

The queen said slowly, looking like she was planning a strategy.

Compared with the impatient eldest prince next to him, the two of them formed a sharp contrast.

“Mother, what should we do now? Our source of income has been destroyed. I’m afraid we have to be cautious during this period!”

The eldest prince asked.

The queen looked at him, shook her head almost invisibly, and felt a little disappointed.

Who made him have only this one son? If she didn’t let the eldest prince take the throne, she would have a miserable fate in the future.

Now the biological mother of every prince in the palace had been poisoned by her, and she stepped on the corpses of countless people before she took the position of queen.

Now the future of her entire family depends on the eldest prince alone, but it’s a pity that he was born mediocre and couldn’t beat King Jing in any way.

Fortunately, King Jing has been crowned king now, and there is no chance of him taking the throne.

“The

queen mother can’t say for sure. If you have time, go back to your grandfather’s house more often, and your grandfather can give you advice.” The queen said with a smile.

The two of them resumed their motherly and filial appearance, as if they were not the ones who gritted their teeth and cursed Lin Tian to die without a burial place.

“This Lin Tian is a big roadblock. If he doesn’t pay the price, this prince will have a hard time getting rid of the hatred in his heart!”

After just a few words, the eldest prince still felt unfair and slapped the table heavily.

The teacup on the table trembled violently after he slapped it, and the tea spilled all over the floor.

“My son, you should change your temper.”

The queen frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.

If he was still so impatient after becoming the emperor, he would probably be scolded by those old ministers.

Such a temper is absolutely unacceptable.

“Mother, I know, but it is really difficult to relieve the hatred in my heart if Lin Tian is not dead!” The

eldest prince calmed down a little and admitted his mistake meekly.

“There is no rush now, there is a long way to go. You only know Lin Tian now, but you don’t know if there are other forces behind him?”

The queen said slowly, she also had her own considerations.

This Lin Tian was a stranger to them, as if he appeared out of thin air.

She also sent people to check the details of this person as soon as possible, but all they found was the son of a city lord in Liangzhou City,

and it was said that he was a prodigal son who was ignorant and incompetent! But if he was just an ordinary prodigal son, it would not be worth mentioning to them.

What they were afraid of was that he had been ignorant for more than ten years, just to conserve his energy and deceive others.

“He is just a poor boy from the countryside. What kind of power can he have behind him? He just has a more flexible mind!”

The eldest prince was extremely disdainful. He also sent people to check Lin Tian’s background, and now he was even more indifferent.

“The emperor is still too impatient. Why not wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet to catch him in one fell swoop?”

Although the queen was dissatisfied, she did not express it directly.

She really wanted to teach her son but was unable to do so. She had taught him diligently for more than 20 years, but he still did not make any progress. He

was not even as good as Xiao Eleven!

It’s a pity that their future all depends on this person. Even if they are disappointed, they have to grit their teeth and go on!

“Indeed, if we act rashly now, I’m afraid it will arouse the suspicion of my father.”

The eldest prince nodded after thinking for a while. When he talked about Emperor Zhengde, there was a little dissatisfaction in his eyes.

He was obviously the eldest son of the legitimate family, but the emperor was reluctant to issue an order to appoint a crown prince. I’m afraid he already had another candidate.

“It’s good that you think so. Don’t make any moves in the next few days. Wait until the storm is over! Then we need to send someone to watch Lin Tian carefully and find out his background!”

The queen stroked the delicate armor on her fingers. She was still worried about the sudden appearance of Lin Tian, so she gave another warning.

Although the eldest prince was dissatisfied, he still held back and nodded to show that he understood.
