The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 118 Hidden Person
'I have always been curious about who this person is, but I concluded that he must be one of the adult princes. I kept guessing and verifying, but finally gave up.'

'Until the day I made you the crown prince, I was finally certain that this person was you.'

When Li Yan saw this, he subconsciously became nervous. The secret hidden in the deepest part of his heart was revealed, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

I looked around and saw no one was around, so I felt relieved and continued watching.

"After coming to this conclusion, I went through everything you have done in the past fifteen years. Your information filled up an entire room in the stick-sticking department, with no details. I finally realized that you had shown your extraordinary side so early on, but you kept it low-key and no one noticed."

"Hahaha but! I found out."

When Li Yan saw this, he thought of the old man's smugness when he suddenly realized something, and laughed happily like an old naughty boy, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I have reviewed your entire succession process in detail. Even I have to admit that you are indeed the best among all the princes. Your mind, wisdom, vision, and courage are all top-notch, far superior to your brothers. It's just that your perseverance is a little lacking! You have to pay more attention."

"Through careful analysis, I found that you have only taken action three times in all these years, and each time you took action, it was brilliant and amazing. The first time was when the Ministry of Justice was trying the wrongful imprisonment. On the surface, you asked Longkodo to pass a message to Tong Guowei, hoping that the fourth son would come out to try the case with the eighth son. That night, you sent someone to stab the fourth son. It was because of the previous actions that everyone didn't think it was you who did it. You are so cunning that you even fooled me."

'The second time, I sent people to block the farewell pavilion overnight and killed Xiao Guoxing, sweeping in the fourth and eighth brothers at once, so that the two of them would be caught in a rift, fighting each other, and you, the fisherman, would benefit, and you also took advantage of me!'

'The third time, when I was on a tour in the south, you killed the ninth prince Yinzhen. This arrow forced me into an awkward situation. I had already secretly decided to make the fourth prince Yinzhen the successor, and I also took Hongli to live with me. In order to paralyze the other princes, I also made many cover-ups and hid it from everyone. But I couldn't escape the eyes of the man behind the scenes. He saw through everything at a glance, and decisively shot and killed Yinzhen. This put a lot of pressure on me and forced me into a corner. '

"I was furious, but I was helpless. I had no way to deal with you. Everyone thought you were framing the fourth child, but I was the only one who knew that this was a warning from you. Although I was angry, I had no choice but to imprison the fourth child and send Hongli back to Prince Yong's mansion. Sure enough, you didn't do anything after that."

'I thought about it later and felt relieved. At the same time, I understood your behavior! The battle for the throne is a life-and-death struggle. Although I have not experienced the cruelty and bloodiness, I am also a person who has experienced it and can empathize with it. You have this method, but you did not directly get rid of the fourth brother, but got rid of the treacherous and evil-minded ninth brother. It can be seen that you are also a person who understands the overall situation.'

'But through this incident, I also discovered your existence. I am the emperor of the nine-five countries. I have seen countless people and experienced countless things. I am more curious than sad. I didn't expect that someone would stir up trouble under my nose without being discovered. I haven't had an opponent for many years. I didn't expect that when I was old, there would be an opponent who could compete with me. This aroused my strong desire to win. I can't lose to you. I swear to find you out.''So in the next ten years, I sent countless people to plow one after another in the princes' palaces, but this person was like mud flowing into the sea, and disappeared without a trace. He hasn't made a move in the past ten years. I also suspected you at the time, but your palace was completely unguarded, which paralyzed me, and I always eliminated you first. '

"I later figured it out. A master hides his intentions rather than his appearance. You are smarter than the fourth one."

"I put more attention on Old Fourteen, until he took over as the Great General of the Northwest, and I excluded him without hesitation. Such a stupid person, who can't even see the situation clearly, how could he be the master behind the scenes who pushed me into a corner."

'You have not made any move, and I am helpless, until I feel that my death is approaching, and God has left me with little time, I decided to burn my boats and make one last gamble. I have made many arrangements, and laid a net in the palace, ambushing from all sides! I have left an opportunity for you to seize the throne by force outside the palace, waiting for you to fall into the trap. I believe that the people hiding in the dark will definitely not be able to resist making another move! '

Seeing this, Li Yan swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but feel scared for the situation at that time. Fortunately, he held back and didn't act rashly, otherwise, he might fall into an irreversible situation!
'I set up this situation to find the hidden person and to select a successor. I know who this person is. Besides the fourth prince, it is the prince in secret. I will write the name of the fourth prince on the edict of succession. I don't believe that person doesn't want to see it. As far as the situation at that time was concerned, the fourth prince's succession was also the general trend. I don't believe that person would be indifferent! '

"I am not a pedantic person. We Manchus rose from the wilderness outside the Great Wall, where there are white mountains, black waters, and ice and snow. We survived in the harsh environment of eating raw meat, drinking blood, and farming with knives and fire. Now we control the nine provinces and rule over hundreds of millions of people. We rely on hard work, perseverance, and perseverance to forge ahead."

"The hidden prince has such means and wisdom. Judging from his actions, although he is decisive and ruthless, he has never stepped out of the circle. He can easily eliminate competitors, but he never kills indiscriminately. Therefore, I conclude that this person must not be an evil, treacherous villain, nor a person without virtue. This is enough. In such a position, who can not fight? You can defeat other opponents, that is your ability!"

"But the result was once again beyond my expectations. The Eighth Brother risked his life, the Fourth Brother also took action, and even the Fourteenth Brother, who was far away in the northwest, couldn't hold back and transported his troops to the capital, falling headfirst into my trap. But that person still didn't show up!"

'I made a mistake in judgment, which made me feel disappointed and happy at the same time. That person is smarter than I thought, which makes me want to get him even more. It doesn't matter. I eliminated them one by one. I circled the fourth, eighth, thirteenth and fourteenth brothers, and appointed you as the prince, and then waited for that person to make another move. I believe that his intention is to fight for the throne, and he will definitely show up.'

"Otherwise, the throne has been established, the relationship between the ruler and his subjects has been determined, and when I am gone, even if he has great abilities, he will not be able to change the world!"
