Chapter 580: A Genius Who Is Far Away From the Others
However, even though Su Chen did not say anything, Guan Fan's eyes towards Su Chen still changed slightly.
It is impossible for an ordinary person to be able to remain calm in the face of such a table of delicacies. I just don't know where this Mr. Chen came from?
"Mr. Chen, I'm going to ask Qiyun about the emperor's condition. Are you interested in joining me?"
Guan Fan did not think about Su Chen's background anymore, but instead invited Su Chen.
Su Chen nodded: "Okay."
At that moment, the two stood up and walked to the corner of the venue while others were feasting.
When passing by the concubines' table, Guan Fan winked at Guan Qiyun.
After a while, Guan Qiyun swayed and walked towards the two of them. .
The three of them stood in the corner of the venue and started talking.
"Brother, did you receive my wink just now?" Guan Qiyun first blinked at Su Chen and asked with a smile.
Guan Fan stopped Guan Qiyun's eye attack: "Let's talk business, Qiyun, how is the emperor's condition?"
Guan Qiyun then put away her seductive eyes, thought for a while, and said: "It's still the same, no change, no improvement, no deterioration."
"It's good that it hasn't deteriorated." Guan Fan breathed a sigh of relief, "But why didn't the emperor attend today? It's the empress dowager's birthday, and he should have shown up anyway."
Guan Qiyun's eyes moved, and she sneered lightly: "Don't you understand? The emperor is a person who has his own ideas. No matter what you say, it's useless. I advised him to show up at the birthday banquet, but he didn't listen at all."
Guan Fan shook his head and said: "The empress dowager has always been partial to Prince Rui, and I believe the emperor is also dissatisfied in his heart."
Guan Qiyun looked around and suddenly lowered her voice: "It's not just that simple, brother, according to the information I got, the empress dowager has an idea recently, and seems to want to do something."
"What action?" Guan Fan frowned.
Guan Qiyun's voice lowered even lower, like two thin lines gently drilling into Guan Fan and Su Chen's ears: "The Queen Mother wants to support Prince Rui to be the emperor!"
"What?"
The expression on Guan Fan's face was as if he heard thunder, and after a long time he said: "Are you sure?"
Guan Qiyun smiled softly: "Absolutely true. The emperor is in poor health now and has no heirs. According to the Queen Mother's opinion, it is better to designate Prince Rui as the successor to the throne, and then let the emperor abdicate in a year or two, so that Prince Rui can become the emperor legitimately."
"But, if we do this, what will the emperor think? The emperor is also her biological son." Guan Fan said involuntarily.
Guan Qiyun looked sarcastic: "Haha, hasn't the Queen Mother done enough partiality? In short, the source of this news is reliable. Prince Rui has the support of the Queen Mother and the Lin family. At this birthday banquet, Prince Rui will begin to show his edge to everyone, letting everyone know that his ability and skills are no worse than the emperor."
"How will he show it?" Guan Fan asked.
"According to convention, there will be a session for young geniuses to compete and show their strength at this birthday banquet. You say, if the young genius of the Lin family shows the strength to crush other young generations, then everyone present will think that Prince Rui is more suitable to be the emperor?" Guan Qiyun asked back.
Guan Fan's expression changed slightly. Guan Qiyun's words sounded like there was no connection between the two, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know that if the young geniuses under Prince Rui show strong strength, then what is actually reflected is Prince Rui's ability and skills.
In this way, naturally some people will think that since Prince Rui has so many capable people under his command, then Prince Rui may really be an excellent candidate for the emperor.
"Of course, today's genius competition is only the first step for Prince Rui. But this step is the foundation. As long as this step is done well, the prestige of Prince Rui will be established." Guan Qiyun said again.
Guan Fan nodded solemnly.
"Okay, we can't just stand here and talk all the time, otherwise it will inevitably arouse suspicion." Guan Fan said, "Let's go back to the banquet first."
Guan Qiyun chuckled and winked at Su Chen, radiating charm: "Brother, sister is leaving first~"
As she said that, Guan Qiyun turned around, twisted her sexy waist, and walked away gracefully.
Su Chen shrugged his shoulders. I don't know why this married woman came to provoke him in her old age?
"Mr. Chen, let's go back to the banquet too." Guan Fan said to Su Chen.
The two turned around and walked back. Guan Fan's expression was very solemn. It can be clearly seen that Guan Qiyun's words just now made Guan Fan a little worried.
Su Chen smiled faintly and said, "Because the Guan family and Prince Rui have a feud, so Duke Guan doesn't want Prince Rui to be the emperor?"
Guan Fan came to his senses and shook his head: "It's not just because of this reason. Prince Rui is narrow-minded and is not a man who can make a big difference. He is far inferior to the emperor. If he becomes the emperor in the future, I'm afraid the future of the Yunyuan Empire will be worrying."
Su Chen also heard that the relationship between the Guan family and the emperor is indeed good.
On the other hand, Prince Rui has the support of the Lin family.
