Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 789: Many Cheats 110
You have to know that at the beginning, the emperor felt pity for the other party because he was his own son, and secondly, he thought that he had few sons and if he killed them, they would all be gone, so at most he would depose the prince.

But even if it was useless, the forces behind the other party were still not at peace and kept making small moves, so a prince was killed.

But it was not the emperor who killed the other person, but he was killed by someone else.

Linlang guessed that it was Concubine Wang who did it. After all, the other party had already been crippled, and with Concubine Wang as a target, no one else would kill a crippled prince. It could be that Concubine Wang, who had been constantly bullied by the other party, could not stand it anymore and killed him.

Although Concubine Wang killed many princes, no one found evidence that she was the one who did it. So in the original body's memory, although the mother of the murdered prince hated her to death, she rushed to the emperor and said that Concubine Wang killed her son, and asked the emperor to hand Concubine Wang over to the Ministry of Punishment for investigation. However, because there was no evidence, the emperor naturally ignored them. On the contrary, he scolded them for talking nonsense and sent them to the cold palace. For some people who he particularly hated, the emperor gave them a cup of poisoned wine and sent them to death.

I can't bear to kill my son, but I won't be reluctant to kill my concubines.

By the time the original body passed away, there were not many princes left, and many of them were deposed by the emperor.

Judging from the fact that those people were harming the original body at an increasingly rapid rate, Linlang estimated that not long after the original body passed away, there would be a big wave of trouble in the palace, and all the emperor's sons, including Concubine Wang's son, might be in trouble.

Also, something might have happened to the emperor's brothers and their sons, otherwise, according to the order, it would never be the turn of the cousin, Prince Anjiang.

But what kind of incident was this that resulted in the deaths of so many royal family members?
Linlang guessed that it was most likely a palace coup. Only a palace coup could eliminate many opponents in an instant. Otherwise, the opponents lived scattered one by one, so how could they be eliminated so quickly and allow Prince Anjiang to take the throne.

Linlang imagined the scene: at a palace banquet attended by many royal family members, someone launched a palace coup and directly eliminated the opponent physically.

Logically, the person who initiated the coup should have become the final winner and become the emperor, but he did not. He must have been seriously injured in the coup and eventually died.

Because the final winner died, most of the royal family members also died, so they did not attend the banquet. Or if they attended but did not die, Prince Anjiang became the closest royal family member and thus became the emperor.

Because there were many cousins ​​like Prince Anjiang, but the others did not come to the throne, Prince Anjiang came to the throne. Linlang speculated that the emperor's uncle's family, such as Prince An's Mansion, also came to participate in this palace banquet, so they were all wiped out, resulting in the person who finally became the emperor became Prince Anjiang.

If that's the case, are Prince An and Princess An also dead? Otherwise, if he hadn't died, would he be more qualified to be the emperor than Prince Anjiang? After all, there is an order of seniority.

No, you shouldn't think like that. Prince An is the eldest son of the old Prince An and has the responsibility to inherit the throne. The son who inherits the throne is generally not adopted. So even if Prince An is not dead, the emperor will still be Prince Anjiang, because he is not the eldest son, he can be adopted by the current emperor.

Yes, choosing someone from the royal family to be the emperor would probably be handled through adoption, and he would not become the emperor directly. Firstly, adoption would be more orthodox and would not be accused by others of having a lineage problem; secondly, the current emperor could not be left without an heir.

There are so many members of the royal family. If the emperor has no heir, how can he not adopt a stepson as his successor? This is not in line with the ethics of that era. Therefore, whether from the perspective of legality or human ethics, the next emperor must be adopted, not directly appointed.

As for adoption, the eldest son cannot be adopted, so Linlang thought that even if Prince An was alive, he would not be the emperor, and only Prince Anjiang would be suitable. This was Linlang's guess about the future development based on the performance of those time travelers.

Otherwise, if Prince Anjiang would not become the emperor in the future, why would those time travelers try so hard to marry him?
Some people may say that they want to marry Prince Anjiang for the sake of the mission.

But judging from the performance of these people, this is not the case.

Although they may be controlled by something, these time travelers cannot predict the future development of the plot, let alone what the future identity of Prince Anjiang will be. However, these people want to marry Prince Anjiang, and they can say it is for the mission, but sometimes they talk privately about who looks down on them, and they always say that they will marry Prince Anjiang in the future, and when they become rich, they will deal with those people in such and such a way.

Most of the people who looked down on them were powerful and influential people. Even if she became Princess Anjiang, she would not be able to deal with those people.

Then who can deal with those people? Unless Prince Anjiang becomes emperor in the future and they become queens, they will be able to deal with those people.

This is also the reason why Linlang guessed that Prince Anjiang would become the emperor in the future.

Not to mention how fierce the fight in the palace was, nor that Linlang had safely survived this crisis. The next one would be the crisis during childbirth. Let's just say that for now, from the current perspective, there has been no movement from the other known murderers known from the original body's memory - mainly because Linlang has killed most of the known murderers, especially the more powerful ones, and even physically transcended them. Only some of them are not very dangerous and will not cause trouble for her for the time being, but will cause trouble for her in the future.

The reason why she was sure that the other party would cause trouble to her in the future but not now was because Linlang had monitored the other party for a long time and confirmed that the other party was still a native for the time being and the time traveler had not come through yet.

In this case, these people will definitely not cause trouble for her for the time being, because, who among ordinary people would think of killing Linlang and then marrying Prince Anjiang? After all, they are not engaged yet and are much younger than Prince Anjiang. They would never think of marrying a married man who is much older than themselves. Only time travelers would do this.

Of course, the main reason was that Linlang saw from the surveillance that these people were not native time travelers, and they really had no intention of dealing with her, so Linlang felt relieved.

The most important thing for Linlang now is to resolve the crisis during production.

The murderer has not been discovered yet, and it will be difficult to find the murderer when the time comes, otherwise Linlang would have made preparations in advance like the previous incense and poisonous snake incidents.

This is a crisis in which no one knows who the murderer is or how he did it. It is also the biggest challenge Linlang has faced since coming to this world.

Although she didn't know who the murderer was or how he committed the crime, Linlang still made all the preparations she could. After that, she could only do her best and leave the rest to fate.

Fortunately, the original body survived, and Linlang, who knew the original body's memories, would not be unable to survive. As long as she could escape danger, Linlang would not be afraid.

I actually forgot that there was still a chapter left in the manuscript box...
