Princess Medical Doctor

Chapter 935: Advantage, not responsible

The person talking about caring for his younger brother, but only remembering himself at critical moments, was of course the Third Prince.

When the Eldest Prince went to redeem people with gold, he was the only one on the surface, but many people were hiding under the water. They didn't see the situation at that time, but they heard what the Third Prince said.

At this time, seeing the Third Prince glaring at the Eldest Prince with a gloomy expression, the martial gods who heard the Third Prince's words couldn't help but have thoughts in their hearts.

The Third Prince has a high prestige in the Central Empire. He was courteous and approachable, respectful to his elder brothers, and friendly to his younger brothers. Not only does the Emperor like him, but many ministers also think highly of him.

The martial gods appointed by the Emperor this time came because they were optimistic about the Third Prince, but they didn't expect the Third Prince to let them down again and again.

If the Third Prince failed to rescue the person and was kidnapped by the bandits because he was inexperienced and careless in underestimating the enemy, then the performance of redeeming people today was selfish.

They were not afraid of death. Dying to protect their master was what they should do. However, they cannot accept it if their master pushes them out and sacrifices themselves every time they encounter danger.

They were not afraid that their masters were incompetent. It was to have capable subordinates like them, but they were afraid that their masters were hypocritical and selfish.

The Third Prince was such a kind of person.

The martial gods who came with the Third Prince no longer wanted to follow him. Therefore, as soon as the Third Prince came in, they retreated tacitly and stood beside the Eldest Prince, silently making their stance clear.

The Black Armored Guards were the emperor's guards. They never favor anyone. The martial gods who came with the army were obviously from the Third Prince, but they were standing next to the Eldest Prince at this time. There was no need to explain the meaning, everyone present understood.

It was just that everyone was a smart person. Even if they understood what was going on, they would not say it in public.

The navy commander who escorted Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu to the boat saw this scene and already had some concerns in his mind. He did not exchange too many greetings and left after bowing to the Eldest Prince.

Of course, he did not forget to take away the martial gods who were surrounding the Eldest Prince. Even if he knew some things in his heart, he still had to ask questions. It was better to ask more than act to be too smart and make the wrong decision.

As soon as the people left, the room became much emptier. The Eldest Prince became more casual. After letting Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu sit down, he pulled the Seventh Prince to his side, asking if he needed anything, and at the same time, he comforted his injured body.

Although the Seventh Prince was not close to the Eldest Prince, he did not reject him. He answered whatever the Eldest Prince asked. The two brothers looked happy, but…

This harmony hurt the eyes of the Third Prince.

The Third Prince knew that he could no longer win over the Seventh Prince. He doesn't want to follow the kind brother's route now. He wanted to seize power now.

When the Third Prince saw the Eldest Prince chattering incessantly, he interrupted him rudely: "Brother, these people were given to me by my father. I am their commander. You are in the wrong position."

The Eldest Prince’s hand holding the Seventh Prince stiffened, but he soon returned to normal. He looked up at the Third Prince standing in front of him and asked in a deep voice: “Third brother, what do you want to do?”

“I don’t want to do anything. I'm just reminding my brother to pay attention to his identity and don’t take over the role. Your task is only to bring gold to redeem people. It’s my business to destroy the bandits.” He must return to the capital with a credit, otherwise, he will never be able to turn over.

“Third brother, I am following your father’s order to take over everyone and everything here.” The Eldest Prince would not give in easily.

The Third Prince would give up the throne after just one word. Wouldn't that make him look cowardly? However, to show his friendship with his younger brother, he didn't mind giving the Third Prince another chance.

“Father asked you to take over the 100,000 navy because I am away. Now that I am back, of course, I won’t need you.” The Third Prince took out the imperial edict: “Brother, I have the imperial edict from my father.”

This imperial edict was given to the Third Prince by the Emperor before his departure. It was originally intended to help him establish authority in the army so that he could convince the public, but now it was used by the Third Prince to seize power.

"In that case, I will take my Seventh brother back to the capital tomorrow. What do you think, Third Brother?" The Eldest Prince pulled the Seventh Prince to stand up, his expression calm, without any trace of anger.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Eldest Prince is magnanimous, but Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu understand that the Eldest Prince was digging a hole for the third prince to jump into.

The bandits will not be caught. The Third Prince was willing to take over this mess, the Eldest Prince couldn't help but feel happy.

"In this case, I won't send you off. The eldest brother, please…" The Third Prince not only wanted to seize the Eldest Prince's military power but also his room.

There was no way. The Eldest Prince's room was the largest in the whole ship. It contained a meeting hall, a small study, and a bedroom. Living in this room means that he was the highest commander in the army. How could the Third Prince let the Eldest Prince stay, even for one night?

“I hope the Third Brother can successfully find the bandits.” Although the Eldest Prince was angry, he did not tear up a face with the Third Prince and stepped aside to give way to him.

He'll let the Third Prince be proud for two more days.

"Of course I will." The Third Prince said confidently.

Of course, he knew that it would be difficult to find the bandits after they escaped, but he had no choice now. After seizing the military power, he still has a chance. If he finds the bandits, he will stand up. But if he does not seize the military power, he will return to the capital as a loser and become a foil to the eldest prince. This was something he could not accept.

He has reached this point, and he can only try his best.

The Eldest Prince sneered and took the Seventh Prince out. Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu looked at each other. Unexpectedly, they would also be used as backgrounds one day.

Without saying goodbye or talking to the Third Prince, the two of them went out.

The Eldest Prince didn't say anything after he left. He only asked someone to arrange a boat to take them back to the capital tomorrow. But he didn't need to say anything. Just seeing the Eldest Prince being kicked out of his room and forced to return to the capital, the people on the boat knew what happened.

The Third Prince was trying to burn the bridge after crossing the river.

It was just, this was a struggle between the princes of the Central Empire. The Eldest Prince has given in. What else can they do besides taking care of the Eldest Prince as much as possible?

The Eldest Prince didn't know that he had cheated the Third Prince but gained such a good effect. Although he didn't show it on his face, he was very happy in his heart.

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, who had always been ignored by the people in the Central Empire, were like bystanders, seeing everything that happened on the ship.

At night, when there were only two of them, Lin Chujiu nestled in Xiao Tianyao's arms and whispered: "It seems that the future of the Eldest Prince is limitless."

The Eldest Prince was stupid, but as long as he puts his stupidity in the right place, he can be loyal and sincere. Such qualities can make his subordinates work for him.

"Now, he has a 50% chance." Originally, Xiao Tianyao was not optimistic about the Eldest Prince. Compared with other princes in the Central Empire, the Eldest Prince had no advantage.

But now, the Eldest Prince has turned his disadvantage into an advantage, and there was a possibility to compete.

“The Eldest Prince will do his best, and our life in the Central Empire will not be difficult.” Lin Chujiu yawned, moved her body, and adjusted to a more comfortable position.

Xiao Tianyao said nothing. He looked at Lin Chujiu with fiery eyes, as if he wanted to swallow Lin Chujiu up, but…

Before Xiao Tianyao could make a move, Lin Chujiu let out a steady breathing sound.

Obviously, she fell asleep…
