Chapter 24 Donglai Turbulence
The blood-red sun slowly rose over the city of Izumo. Shining on the surrounding blue sea, the messy reflection continues to break and converge on the sea. It seems to herald the same separation and union in this world.
At this time, all the people in Chuyun City hid at home. They not only hoped that the current majesty would live a long life, but also did not want their majesty to stay on the throne for too long. Because now your majesty is old, but if your majesty dies, the royal family will inevitably be turbulent. Although the people in Izumo City do not have much talent, they still understand this truth. Once your majesty dies, there will inevitably be a bloody storm between the prince, the second prince and the third prince.
For good, there are not many princes in the Donglai Empire, and the third princes are in the distant glorious city at this time. Many ministers don't understand why the third prince asks for such a thankless job and will be far away from China. Obviously, it is not good for the struggle for power and profit. Maybe it's really like what the third prince said, he just wants to be a prince.
The relationship between the third prince and the prince and the second prince is well maintained, but there always seems to be an inexplicable hatred between the prince and the second prince. Both of them are bound to win this battle for the throne. At this time, Ji Xinghun, the third prince who was far away from Izumo City, did not seem to be clear about the turbulent situation in China.
The majesty of the Donglai Empire still died, and it was a good time, a week after the third prince left the Donglai Empire. This week is enough for the prince and the second prince to do a lot of things. And when His Majesty died, all their deployments broke out in an instant.
The prince held a heavy army and immediately surrounded the second prince's mansion. And it was claimed that the second prince poisoned and killed His Majesty as the sinner of the entire Donglai Empire. His prince will bring the father-s murderer to justice and impose the most cruel punishment. However, when everyone rushed into the second prince's mansion, the second prince announced that he had ascended the throne in front of the group of courtiers!
This makes the prince very puzzled. The two have been fighting in secret for more than ten years, and the performance of many ministers is very ambiguous. Even most of the ministers expressed their support for the prince. However, when the two officially confronted each other, the ministers all stood on the side of the second prince. The prince was not too frustrated. The military power in his hand only needed to regain control of this group of ministers.
However, the second prince seemed to have understood the prince's idea for a long time. In just three days, he secretly transferred all the food and money in the country. Although the prince surrounded the court, the soldiers in his hands could not be replenished, the generals could not get salaries, and the morale was obviously very low. The prince frowned at this time. Thinking of what the third prince Ji Xinghun said - what's the use of an army without food and grass?
The prince hammered his thigh fiercely, his face changed, and immediately told the world about the crimes of the second prince, and hoped that the people of the whole country would spontaneously donate money and food to help the prince conquer the second prince. Although the second prince was supported by the ministers, he had no army in his hands, but he took the lead in occupying the inner city and piling up mountains of money and grain. With heavy walls and sufficient support supplies, he confronted the prince.
Hearing the prince's large collection of food and money from the people, the second prince smiled. In this way, the prince will gradually lose the hearts of the people, and the third prince will come back far abroad. I'm afraid that he has also won the throne and sat down. Even if the third prince has the ability to pass the world, he can't set off too much storm.
Naturally, the people of Izumo City do not know how His Majesty died, but they know that for the sake of a throne, the brothers turned against each other, and the father and son became enemies, which was already the greatest misfortune of the Donglai Empire. The prince also wanted to collect the food and money they relied on to survive, which made the people complain.
Soon, the prince lost the support of the people. Wherever the prince's army went, the people either closed their doors or fled far away. This made the prince lose his mind for a moment and let his army forcibly rob the people's food and money. It made people panic even more. Unexpectedly, most of the people who were forced by the prince ran to support the second prince.
The second prince received the support of the people and quickly formed an army, but these armies composed of the people are really weak. After confronting the prince several times, the strength of the second prince was also weakened a lot. The prince snatched a lot of supplies from the second prince, and suddenly began to please the people.
The situation in China is becoming more and more volatile. The second prince saw the elite troops in the hands of the prince who could not be defeated at all in a head-on confrontation, so he led the ministers to run outside Chuyun City to attack the prince with the help of local troops. In this way, the domestic situation was more turbulent, and the whole Donglai Empire was involved in the war between the two princes.
At this time, in the mansion of the third prince Ji Xinghun, an old man who hid behind the door and was full of gloom, smiled and said to himself coldly: "I didn't expect that this situation was better than I thought. The more chaotic the better, the more chaotic the three princes will have more chances. And only by letting that wild species ascend the throne can we control the whole Donglai Empire.
A cold hum sounded behind the old man: "Unfortunately, you are wrong. The whole Donglai Empire can no longer satisfy the ambition of the third prince. The third prince wants the whole continent. When this war is over, you will understand everything.
The old man sneered: "The whole world? His appetite is not small, but the royal families of other countries do not seem to be vegetarian! That night Wujiang has long wanted to marry a princess with an empire. If the princess hadn't had a marriage contract with the third prince, I'm afraid Wujiang would have won that night.
"What the third prince likes is the Ice Emperor. As for the princess, she has long left the marriage contract behind and followed a boy named Ma Xiaochao. It seems that that boy has been recognized by the Zhong You Empire. Now that boy is the son-in-law of the empire.
"This is what I don't like the third prince. For a woman, I can actually give up the whole country. If he had married Princess Vivi earlier. Then the whole empire is not in his pocket. It's good now, but it's just that the unknown boy is cheap. But this is also good. If the third prince's power is not strong enough, I can control him better.
"Is that so? The third prince said that he wanted you to pay attention to one thing. That is, if the prince is defeated, the second prince is likely to immediately kill many meritorious officials who helped him win the throne, so don't get too close to the second prince. If the prince wins, he will inevitably launch an invasion with the prince's character. At that time, you'd better help the prince achieve some results.
"Is that what the third prince said? Doesn't he have any intention of coming back to inherit the throne?
"The third prince also told me that if the Donglai Empire was not stable enough, he would come back to preside over the overall situation. But what is the hosting method? I don't know. The third prince still needs manpower, and the affairs within the empire will be handed over to you.
"Bastard!" The old man scolded. The man who had just talked to him had long disappeared without a trace. The old man knew that the mess of the Donglai Empire still had to be cleaned up by himself. After all, the unclimatic third prince has never developed his own power. If he returns to China, he still has to rely on himself.
At this time, the third prince Ji Xinghun fell into a bitter battle. Four ancient beasts, together with countless mud and rock puppets, surrounded their seven-person assault team. And most importantly, two of their team are therapists who are not very effective.
Ji Xinghun did not care about the turmoil within their Donglai Empire at this time, and everything had been planned in his heart for a long time. Now the only thing he can do is to make his subsequent invasion without interference from other races. Therefore, he must drive Kui Shen and his heavenly clan far away from the human world in this battle.
