"Kill the Second Prince?"
The Eldest Prince was startled, staring blankly at Yang Xiao for a moment before quickly ordering the doors of the parlor to be shut, while instructing guards to stand watch outside.
"Without my command, no one is allowed to enter."
Though the Eldest Prince harbored extreme hatred towards Wanyan Ying, often contemplating his removal, such thoughts have remained internal and never truly spoken or enacted.
Liang Bao, Fan Chen, Xiao Gang, Wang Qian, and others also looked at Yang Xiao, expressions of surprise on their faces.
Xiao Gang said:
"Yang Xiao, killing the Second Prince is no joking matter. The Eldest Prince has worked hard to gain the Emperor's trust; angering the Emperor over this could undo it all!
The Second Prince Wanyan Ying is, after all, the biological son of the Flying Leopard Emperor and a rather favored one. He wouldn't allow us to kill the Second Prince."
Fan Chen and others nodded.
