I have to say that Prince Qing’s guess is nothing wrong.

When he brought his 200,000 army to the capital, he was facing a 200,000 army that had sharpened his sword.

Similarly, on the same day his army arrived under the capital, he also received a signal from Gu Xiao and Dongfang Hou to ask for peace talks.

After Prince Qing personally circled the capital and found that the capital had now become an iron barrel and there was no possibility of conquering the capital in a short period of time, he simply agreed to the peace talks sent by Gu Xiao and others. Since there is no possibility of winning in a short period of time, sitting down to negotiate may not be an acceptable choice.

Three days later, a huge open space was cleared out outside the east gate of the capital.

A huge iron umbrella was erected on the open space. Under the iron umbrella, two factions of the royal family, representing the current royal family, are in a negotiation to decide the future of the world.

"Brother, now you and I are in a match. What do you think we should do now?" As soon as we met, the brothers Dongfang Hou and Prince Qing, who had been away for many years, shivered for a few words, Dongfang Hou said straight to the point.

Prince Qing said in a hoarse voice: "The dragon throne belongs to me!"

"This is impossible!" Dongfang Hou flatly refused.

For the Dongfang Hou, the dragon throne was also something he longed for for a long time. Now, Prince Qing wanted to leave with just one word, which he could never accept.

Prince Qing had known for a long time that this was something that Dongfang Hou could never accept.

Therefore, as soon as Dongfang Hou finished speaking, he added, "I can pass the throne to your son in a hundred years."

When Dongfang Hou heard this, he immediately became a little moved.

He knew that his emperor brother did not lie. Prince Qing did not have a son, only an adopted daughter, and at his age, it would not be realistic to give birth to a son. What's more, now that the children within the Dongfang clan have withered, he has no other choice now.

"Why do you guarantee?" Dongfang Hou was really moved to the truth.

In his opinion, there is no difference between him or his son or not, but he still hopes that Prince Qing can give a guarantee.

When Prince Qing heard this, he first glanced at Gu Xiao standing beside Dongfang Hou, then turned around and looked at Tuotuo who was standing behind him, and said, "It's very simple. I only have one daughter. I can marry Tuotuo to the son-in-law. That's right?"

"Entertainment Father!" Tuotuo, who was standing behind Prince Qing, immediately said coquettishly when he heard this.

Tuotuo secretly glanced at Gu Xiao who was standing behind Dongfang Hou. Seeing the tall and mighty and majestic Gu Xiao, his pretty face couldn't help but blush.

As the saying goes, a woman who doesn’t have spring, although she is cold by nature, she is not a person without feelings. Gu Xiao’s conditions can definitely be called the number one good man today. What’s more, Tuotuo has long since thrown his heart to Gu Xiao.

Dongfang Hou was stunned when he heard this. Of course, he knew which son Prince Qing was talking about.

To be honest, if Prince Qing said this a year ago, he would have accepted it happily. Because this means that he can get Prince Qing's strong support, but as the saying goes, this time is also the same as that!

For the current Dongfang Hou, Gu Xiao’s son is no longer as important as before.

Because what he hopes most now is to help him and Concubine Ju take the throne!

Gu Xiao stood aside and saw Dongfang Hou's hesitation, his heart suddenly felt full of sadness.

Of course he knew. Dongfang Hou hesitated because of what. Dongfang Hou was afraid that he would threaten his beloved son's status after he took the line of Prince Qing. Gu Xiao knew very well in his heart. It was only because of this that he felt even more sad.

I saved this cheap life, saved his woman and son, and helped him to a distance that is only one step away from the throne. However, in his heart, his status is still not as important as his youngest son! Could it be that the beloved woman is really so important to give birth to a son than to himself?

Perhaps, family affection is simply a very luxurious thing for me! Gu Xiao said with sadness in his heart.

After a while, Dongfang Hou asked, "Brother, do you mean that Sheng'er will succeed the throne in the future?"

"Of course, Sheng'er is brave and resourceful, and has extraordinary talent. No one in my Dongfang family can beat him!" As he spoke, Prince Qing looked at Gu Xiao with admiration.

Regarding Gu Xiao's nephew, Prince Qing, on the one hand, hated that he had ruined his good deeds many times, and on the other hand, he also admired his talents from the bottom of his heart.

Even though he is not the same as him, as an elder, he will have some appreciation for his own abilities. There is no doubt that Prince Qing has such a similar feeling for Gu Xiao now, so he chose to let Gu Xiao become his successor.

Dongfang Hou said: "Brother, Sheng'er now has six women, so he is not a good match for Tuotuo's niece!"

During this period, in addition to occupying the four women, Gu Xiao also brought Yuki Yuki Yuki into his backyard. As for Yuki Yuki Yuki's father, Yakuto, Ma Shou has now returned to Japan with the edict of the Central Plains court to confer him as the leader of the Japanese martial arts world.

Prince Qing was surprised when he heard this and asked back: "What do you think you should do?"

Dongfang Hou pondered for a while and said, "Are the emperor interested in admitting an adopted son?"

Q: When Gu Xiao heard this, he immediately clenched his fists tightly.

Of course he knew what Dongfang Hou meant. Dongfang Hou wanted Prince Qing to recognize the little prince as his adopted son, and then train the little prince since he was a child!

This old guy is so disparate to his two sons, which he can never accept!

Even though he had never been interested in the dragon throne, he couldn't help feeling a little chill at this moment!

Could it be that in the face of power, there is really no affection for flesh and blood? Gu Xiao asked himself from the bottom of his heart.

Prince Qing and Dongfang Hou were still continuing to negotiate, but Gu Xiao was not interested in continuing to listen.

At this moment, he had never been so eager to return to the Star Continent.

Even on the Star Continent, family affection is still an unattainable luxury for him, but even if he can't get it, he feels better than he is now. After all, having a thought in his heart is at least better than not even a thought!

Maybe, I shouldn’t expect any family affection at all? Gu Xiao sighed in his heart. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
