General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 1022 Losing the Heart of the People (2)

Standing at the corner, several companions came over and looked at their men's faces, looking at each other in silence.

Finally, someone couldn't help but say, "The Second Prince treats us like this..."

"Stop talking. Since we have chosen the second prince, let's help him become the emperor." said the subordinate.

"But with such a temper, he will be tyrannical when he becomes emperor. How can we follow him? Old Qin and others who have followed him for several years, he will kill them at will." The other man turned his head away. He knew that if the second prince became emperor, they would be the heroes.

But they are heartbroken.

Old Qin, who had been loyal to the Second Prince and protected him when he returned from the Third Prince's wedding, was not only not rewarded by the Second Prince, but he became angry and humiliated himself, and blamed Old Qin and the others for not protecting their master well enough, which led to his miserable state. He then beheaded all of them.

With such a heartless master, could they wait until the day he ascended the throne? They were afraid that before he ascended the throne, they would be used as a vent for his anger and be dealt with by him.

"Stop talking! What's the point of you saying this! We are the Second Prince's men, and even if we leave, we have nowhere to go!" The subordinate glanced at his companion and shook his head.

"I really regret not choosing the Third Prince." Another person sighed. "Although the Third Prince has no background, at least he never kills innocent people and never takes his anger out on his subordinates. The longest secret guard around him has been with him for nearly twenty years."

"What you said is meaningless. We are already like this. Are you hoping that the Second Prince will fail?" said another person.

"For someone like him, even if he becomes emperor, it will not be a blessing for the people, and people like us may become sinners." The subordinate sighed and said silently.

"Then let's..." His companions beside him saw him say this.

The men shook their heads and looked at each other, everything was said without words.

The Second Prince Li Guang did not expect that after visiting Li Hong, several of his trusted subordinates would actually want to jump ship and choose another master.

When Li Hong returned to the study, Chen Zihao asked, "How is it? What do you think?"

"My second brother is doomed to fail." Li Hong said calmly, "With his character, he will never accomplish anything and is destined not to be the emperor."

"Success depends on man, while planning depends on God. Is it so easy to be an emperor? Can the strategy of governing a country be understood in just a few words? He doesn't even know how to be a human being. If he wants to be an emperor, it would be faster to just dream about it." Chen Zihao said lightly.

"Li Guang is suspicious and cruel by nature. He doesn't understand benevolence and righteousness, and he doesn't know the importance of love and gratitude. The only reason he can live until now is because he has a good maternal family protecting him." Li Hong thought of the past and said coldly.

"According to your inference, who do you think is most likely to ascend the throne?" Chen Zihao glanced at Li Hong and asked.

"If we go by strength, the fourth prince Li Hao might be the most powerful!" Li Hong replied. "The prime minister is indeed second only to one person, but if he wants to control the country, there are too many variables, and he will always be unable to speak without a legitimate name."

"What about you? You excluded yourself?" Chen Zihao looked at Li Hong, and Li Hong shook his head. "Whether I can succeed or not is never determined by fate."

"For Jing'er and my elder brother, I must succeed! If I fail, I will die!" Li Hong's eyes were burning with passion and his gaze was unwavering.

Chen Zihao nodded slightly, which was a bit decent.

"Okay, stop promising yourself and continue studying!" Chen Zihao glanced at Li Hong.
