It wasn't his fate to own this dynasty, but he didn't want it to end up in the hands of the other princes.
Their mother and their mother's family owed it to them.
However, the person he felt was the most threatening was Xie Heng.
He knew better than anyone else what kind of person Xie Heng was. Not only was he highly capable, but he was also ruthless and at times vicious.
If Xie Heng knew Xie Jun's real identity, would he become interested in that position?
Xie Jun heeded basically everything that Xie Heng said. If he helped his ninth brother become the emperor, his ninth brother might get convinced by Xie Heng to give up the position to Xie Heng instead. If that happened, the Third Prince felt like even if he died, he would never be able to rest in peace.
"Third Brother, we're already here in Guangqing Province, so why don't we ask Zhao Chuchu to see if there are ways for you to live a bit longer."
