As Shen Chenyu guessed, there was indeed a reason for the prince's sudden attack on him. The prince didn't simply dislike him, but wanted to test the emperor's attitude.

  Everyone in this world thinks that the current emperor favors the prince very much, even the prince has always thought so. But thinking like this, until the last few years, the prince always felt that he was different from before.

  Because the emperor still favored him on the surface, but he gradually became fond of other princes in private. Especially after Prince Qi Jin came back, the feeling of indistinctness before became even stronger. For the sake of a brother from the countryside, the emperor did not hesitate to scold him in public and punish him with grounding.

  The little doubt in the prince's heart, as if it was suddenly confirmed, all came out at once. In addition, now that the emperor appointed Shen Chenyu as the number one scholar, it further proved that the emperor began to dislike him.

  Because if the emperor really favors him, shouldn't his first reaction when he finds Shen Chenyu at this time is to help him get rid of this trouble?

  But in fact, the emperor personally selected Shen Chenyu as the champion. The prince didn't believe that the emperor didn't know who Shen Chenyu was, and he didn't believe that the emperor didn't know what the eighth prince was doing.

  The prince's farce today, apart from that he really wanted to get rid of Shen Chenyu, actually wanted to test the emperor more. He wanted to see what the emperor's attitude was, was he really planning to abandon him as the crown prince and set up another crown prince, or was he doing something for other reasons?

  Regardless of whether it is the former or the latter, this time he wants to take the opportunity to get rid of Shen Chenyu, because only in this way can Mu Linting be driven crazy. If Mu Linting can be forced to attack him, then even if Mu Linting has a stomach full of grievances, people in the world will not believe him as a sinner.

  These prince's plans are actually very good, whether it is taking the opportunity to get rid of Shen Chenyu's scourge, or using Shen Chenyu to drive Mu Linting crazy. But what he didn't know was that it was so easy for Mu Linting to kill him now. Even with the layers of guards around him now, it would be easy for Mu Linting to kill him.

  All the prince's plans are based on the fact that he is still alive. But if he is successfully assassinated, even if Mu Linting will continue to bear the infamy, but he himself will die to see him.

  Just when the prince was about to make a move, a hand suddenly grabbed his wrist. The prince turned his eyes angrily, and saw the eighth prince looking at him with a smile on his face.

  The Eighth Prince smiled and said, "What is Seventh Brother doing? Today is a happy day, don't go to war just because of a trivial matter."

  trifle? This is true for other princes, but it is not trivial for the prince.

  It's a pity that no matter what the prince thinks, the eighth prince has already stepped forward to stop the sword. If he insists on messing around here, it is estimated that the eleventh prince and fifth prince will also attack, and then he will be in a situation where he is surrounded by enemies.

  These few people usually coerce each other, but once there is a chance to bring him down, they will unite without hesitation.

  Thinking of this, the prince paused for a moment, then let go of the eighth prince's strength, then he stared at Shen Chenyu and said: "Shen Zhuangyuan is really brave, and he can keep his face under such circumstances. The pillar of the country that the father and emperor fancy."
