If the Fourth Prince is supported by Zhu Tianxiong, Minister of War, then the Eighth Prince is supported by Zhu Yuantuo.
The eighth prince's biological mother is from the Dream Witch clan, and Zhu Yuantuo's biological mother is also from the Dream Witch clan. The two families are still related.
The eldest prince has no such supporters, so in this contest between the three sons, almost everyone is optimistic about the eighth prince and the fourth prince, believing that the future Witch Emperor will be born between them.
The fourth prince steadied himself and said with a sneer: "Lord General, you came just in time. If you don't come earlier, you won't come later. But you come at this time. There is no such thing as trying to deviate from one another."
Commander-in-Chief Zhu Yuantuo said indifferently: "Martial fighting is prohibited in the Imperial City. Do you think the Fourth Prince doesn't understand this truth? Your people dare to lead the Wu'an Army in the Imperial City openly and openly. If this is pursued, it will be a big deal.
culpability.”
The fourth prince snorted coldly: "My Wu'an Army has the power to enter the interior of the imperial city to maintain public order. What's more, this is just an exchange and discussion between individuals. Does the General Secretary still want to go to the line?"
Zhu Yuantuo said indifferently: "No matter what the reason is, as the chief director of the Yeming Division, I have the responsibility to maintain the stability of the imperial city. The fourth prince should take your people and leave as soon as possible, otherwise this matter will cause more trouble, and your
That subordinate Li Chuang can’t get even half a cent from me.”
The fourth prince's expression was uncertain. He glanced at the other party, then at the eighth prince, and clenched his fists. He was almost able to destroy his eighth brother.
But now that Zhu Yuantuo has arrived, his chance is naturally gone.
"Humph, Your Highness, remember, Eighth Brother, Chief Director, we will meet again later, let's go!" Although the Fourth Prince was impulsive and hot-tempered, he did not go to the extent of confronting the Chief Director of the Yeming Division here.
He ordered to turn around and leave with a gloomy face. General Li Chuangtian could only look at Ye Xiuchen, Wu Xia and others with resentment, and reluctantly followed the fourth prince away.
"This bastard is really lawless." The Eighth Prince spit out blood.
Zhu Yuantuo said calmly: "Zhu Tu is impulsive, but his talent in martial arts is really amazing. I think it won't be long before he enters the realm of the Holy Emperor of Taichu. You are much worse than him in this aspect, so it's best not to
Fight him alone and don't give him a chance to destroy you."
The Eighth Prince clasped his fists and said, "Thank you second uncle for helping me. My nephew will remember it."
"I can't directly intervene in your battle for the right to inherit the throne. However, you'd better find a solution as soon as possible for the fourth prince. In the future, when he breaks through and enters the realm of Taichu Holy Emperor, it will be even more difficult to deal with him.
.”
After Zhu Yuantuo finished speaking, he turned around and left, disappearing.
The Eighth Prince bowed again to his disappearing figure, with murderous intent surging in his eyes.
Xiang Chen's Xiuchen incarnation came to the Eighth Prince and whispered: "Your Highness, it is urgent to deal with the Fourth Prince. As the Chief Director said, when he becomes Taichu in the future, we will be the unlucky ones."
The Eighth Prince glanced at him who was still injured: "What suggestions do you have?"
Xiang Chen smiled sinisterly: "Isn't there a neutral eldest prince? It would be much easier if we could make the eldest prince fall to our camp and jointly deal with the four princes."
"Eldest Brother——" The Eighth Prince narrowed his eyes slightly: "Eldest Brother seems to be neutral, but in fact he is also an ambitious person, but the power behind him is too weak, which limits his ambition."
Xiang Chen continued: "Although the power behind the eldest prince is weak, he also controls a garrison of 800,000 people. Although the garrison is not as powerful as the fourth prince's Wu'an Army, at the critical moment, it will also be an unstoppable force.
A small help can determine the outcome."
"Coupled with the millions of city defense troops under your command, the Eighth Prince, your numerical advantage can completely make up for the gap in individual combat effectiveness between the two sides."
"Although the eldest prince has no hope of competing for the Witch King, your highness, you can still promise him a lot of benefits. If you don't worry about me, your highness, I can represent our camp and talk to the eldest prince."
The Eighth Prince's eyes kept rolling, his thoughts flowing, weighing the pros and cons of Xiang Chen's suggestions.
After thinking for a long time, he finally nodded in agreement: "Then it's up to you and Zhu Tao to handle this matter."
"yes!"
After Xiang Chen agreed, the corner of his mouth curled up with a subtle and sinister arc.
Two dogs are two-faced and cunning.
The fourth prince's people left, and the eighth prince's people also dispersed. Wu Xia was moved and held Xiang Chen's hand: "Senior Brother Ye, you will be my brother's brother from now on!"
Xiang Chen patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "We are brothers, let alone these pretentious things. If you want to thank me, then treat me to a drink."
"Haha, okay, I won't go home until I'm drunk today!"
Xiang Chen stayed in his mansion temporarily and quickly figured out all the formations in his mansion.
If Xiang Chen is not from the Jiutian camp, or he is loyal to the Wushen Dynasty, a person like him may be able to be a very popular minister in the Wushen Dynasty, and in the future he will be inferior to ten thousand people.
However, the dog is 1.89 meters tall, and the whole body is 1.88 meters tall.
Two days later, Xiang Chen took several people assigned by the eighth prince to negotiate with the eldest prince.
This negotiation was naturally extremely smooth, and it was all planned.
In the end, the eldest prince and the eighth prince reached a cooperation to deal with the fourth prince together, and the eighth prince promised the eldest prince very generous conditions, including that he would help the eldest prince break through to the supreme world in the future.
For their background, the Taichu Holy Emperor is not their ultimate goal, the Supreme Being of Heaven and Earth is.
After reaching an agreement with the eighth prince, the eldest prince was alone in his palace laughing, everything was going according to plan.
After the joy, the eldest prince called out: "Here comes, get ready, I want to go to Lao Si's place to have a cup of tea!"
And Xiang Chen's situation among these princes is slowly unfolding.
Time has passed in the blink of an eye, more than sixty years.
During these sixty years, in the blink of an eye, everything was calm, there were constant minor frictions between the princes, and there were no major battles.
And after the extra cosmic cracks in the ancient universe were filled, for nine days, the people in Beiminghai seemed to have disappeared. Nothing reappeared and caused any tragedy. It was still the "peaceful days" where the witch god clan ruled the ancient world, with only witchcraft power and no human rights.
.
And this night, in Wu Xia's mansion.
The maids and servants shuttled back and forth in the mansion, and the guards patrolled everywhere, but a dark shadow quietly lurked into Wu Xia's mansion, easily avoiding all the formations, and was familiar with the roads.
In the palace, Wu Xia was soaking in a medicinal bath, closing her eyes and enjoying it.
A maid in cool clothes came over carrying a basin of prepared medicinal materials and poured them into the medicine pool.
The maid came behind Wu Xia, and her slender fingers suddenly turned into sharp claws, opening Wu Xia's head bit by bit. But Wu Xia seemed to have no feeling at all, and his eyes entered a hallucinogenic state of sluggishness.
