Yun Qianyu told Murong Cang her thoughts, and Murong Cang nodded in agreement.
Murong Cang’s expression became solemn. Originally, when he heard that a secret passage had been dug in Yujian’s palace, he naturally assumed that it was Rui Wang who did it, but now it seems that it was not.
This was what worried him the most. The enemy he had always thought of was not the most powerful character. There was someone behind them who was eyeing the grandfather and grandson covetously. He didn’t even know who that person was.
“Girl, things seem to be getting more and more complicated. Grandpa’s time is running out. Can you do it?” Murong Cang asked worriedly.
Yun Qianyu noticed that Murong Cang’s emotions were very unstable and looked away from the blueprints.
“Grandpa, we have no way out. Whether we can do it or not is not a question I should be considering now. Since we have chosen this path, I will only move forward and not look back.”
“Girl, is Grandpa being too selfish?” Murong Cang said with guilt.
“I consider Yujian my younger brother, my family.”
Murong Cang sighed. Now, no one had any way out.
“Girl, Grandpa has an idea I want to tell you!”
Yun Qianyu looked intently at Murong Cang, waiting for him to continue.
“Grandpa’s health has clearly deteriorated these past two days. I can’t even eat anymore. Grandpa’s days are truly numbered.” Murong Cang was struck by this profound sense of helplessness.
“These past few days, Grandpa has been thinking about what will happen to you two siblings after Grandpa is gone. Will Yujian be able to grow up smoothly? Even after Grandpa takes his last breath, it’s questionable whether Yujian can successfully ascend the throne.”
Yun Qianyu understood Murong Cang’s meaning.
“Grandpa wants Yujian to ascend the throne ahead of schedule?”
Murong Cang knew Yun Qianyu was intelligent, so he wasn’t surprised by her words.
“Yes, rather than having you and Yujian face such great danger during the most difficult time after Grandpa’s death, it would be better to let Yujian ascend the throne ahead of time. It’s only a few months anyway, so at least you won’t have to worry about the enthronement. Besides, Yujian can’t live in his palace now, so he can then move out openly.”
“Grandpa’s idea is feasible!”
Yun Qianyu nodded. This way, Yujian’s safety would be guaranteed, and if Grandpa were gone, Yujian would be the rightful emperor. They would have to think carefully before taking any further action. At least it would give her and Yujian ample time.
“Since you also think it’s feasible, Grandpa plans to have Yujian ascend the throne on his birthday. No word must leak out beforehand.”
Yun Qianyu calculated that there were less than ten days left until Murong Cang’s birthday. The enthronement of an emperor was not so simple. It seemed that she would be busy these next few days.
“Girl, Grandpa has already secretly made preparations for everything else, but this sacrificial ceremony must be held at the royal Tianen Temple, and it will take three days. We can’t just go openly. What should we do?”
Murong Cang was troubled. A sacrificial ceremony was necessary for the ascension to the throne; otherwise, Heaven wouldn’t protect them. Although it wasn’t entirely credible, the common people believed it!
Yun Qianyu’s eyes darted around quickly, then suddenly lit up. “Grandpa, what’s so difficult about that?”
“Girl, you have an idea?” Murong Cang looked at Yun Qianyu excitedly.
Yun Qianyu whispered something in Murong Cang’s ear, and Murong Cang laughed loudly. “You little devil.”
Yun Qianyu looked at the laughing Murong Cang and pointed to a spot on the map.
