It was already dawn the next day when I came out of Prince Hong's Mansion.
After Lin Bai had a bowl of wontons at the market, he came to Prince Chen's Mansion and met His Highness Prince Chen.
In the reception room.
"Brother Lin, please sit down." His Highness Prince Chen came in with a blushing face, asked Lin Bai to sit down, and ordered the maid to bring some tea.
His Highness Prince Chen smiled brightly and said: "I just came back from the palace, but Brother Lin didn't see me. Today, my father summoned the third prince who has not been summoned for many days."
"The third prince stood in the Golden Palace, like a wilted eggplant, no longer as beautiful as before."
His Highness Prince Chen couldn't help but smile. Soon, his smile gradually faded, and there were tears in his eyes. "He has done so many evil things, and he deserves the retribution he deserves today."
Lin Bai knew that the evil deeds mentioned by His Highness Prince Chen were the cause of death of the eldest prince and the second prince. The twelfth prince had been framed and even he was demoted from the imperial capital.
Lin Bai rolled his eyes and reminded: "Your Highness, although we have captured Xia Jingzhi, the trial of the Zhaoxing Division has not yet produced a result, so Your Highness should be careful."
His Highness King Chen nodded repeatedly, "I have already urged the Zhaoxing Division to speed up the trial. Once there is a result, I will notify Brother Lin as soon as possible."
Lin Bai added: "Although the third prince lost this battle, his foundation in the imperial capital is still strong. Your Highness should still make preparations in advance..."
Lin Bai didn't finish speaking, and stopped abruptly when he reached the appropriate point.
His Highness Prince Chen frowned, and a fierce light suddenly burst out in his eyes, "Brother Lin means... that the third prince will jump over the wall in a hurry, lead his troops to force the palace, and seize the throne by force?"
Lin Bai said: "I have looked up the history of the royal family. In the long hundreds of thousands of years, there are many cases where the princes seized the throne and eventually turned into a civil war in Chu."
The fire of joy in His Highness King Chen's heart slowly extinguished, and he sat gloomily on the chair, his eyes flashing fiercely, "Brother Lin is very much reminded."
Lin Bai said: "If it eventually evolves into a civil war in Chu, it will be a battle between the military."
"Once the military gets involved, there will be very little that Tianshui Sect and Tianzi Camp can do."
If things go as Lin Bai expected, and the prince's fight for the right to inherit the throne turns into a civil war in Chu, and the military troops move into the imperial capital, then there will be very little that the five families and seven sects of Chu can do, and what will follow is a situation where the princes will compete for hegemony.
Whoever controls more soldiers and horses, and whoever has stronger fists will be the emperor of Chu in the future.
In the history of the royal family of the Chu Kingdom, there were actually quite a few cases where the princes' succession turned into a situation where princes were fighting for hegemony. Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, there were at least five or six times.
His Highness King Chen took a deep breath and said, "Tianshui Sect and Tianzi Camp have already put in a lot of effort in this battle. Leave the rest to me."
Hearing His Highness King Chen mention the merits of Tianshui Sect and Tianzi Camp, Lin Bai felt a little confident. At least His Highness King Chen had not forgotten his roots.
Lin Bai added: "I came here to remind His Highness to urge the Zhaoxing Division to interrogate Xia Jingzhi, but also to remind His Highness to be careful of the Third Prince jumping over the wall."
"Third... come and return the three Taiyi Divine Weapons!"
Lin Bai took out the three Taiyi magic weapons, the sun-shooting ballista, the Nine-Dragon True Fire Shield, and the Chaos Divine Thunder, and gave them to His Highness King Chen.
His Highness King Chen looked at the three Taiyi Divine Weapons and said with a smile: "Brother Lin made a great contribution in this battle, and the Tianshui Sect also contributed a lot, but now I have nothing to reward Brother Lin and Tianshui.
Zong’s.”
"In terms of cultivation, Brother Lin is already at the middle-grade Taiyi Daoguo realm."
"In terms of status, Brother Lin is already a Marquis of Chu State today."
"Brother Lin probably doesn't appreciate the things I gave him."
"Why don't Brother Lin choose one of these three Taiyi Divine Weapons? This should be my gratitude to Brother Lin."
"Of course, this is a gift from me to Brother Lin, not a reward for this battle."
As soon as His Highness King Chen finished speaking, he immediately added, "Brother Lin, please don't shirk, otherwise you will be in trouble."
"In addition, I will also keep the credit of Tianshui Sect and Tianzi Camp in my heart. When the big events are decided in the future, Tianzi Camp will get what they want."
"And the Tianshui Sect will also get what they dream of."
His Highness King Chen said to Lin Bai very seriously. As soon as he said this, there was no doubt that His Highness King Chen had made a promise.
"In that case...then I won't shirk anymore." Lin Bai grinned and looked at the three sword Taiyi Divine Weapons in front of him. Without any hesitation, Lin Bai made his choice, "I want... Chaos Divine Thunder."
"Hahaha." His Highness King Chen laughed loudly and handed the Chaos Divine Thunder to Lin Bai, "I knew Brother Lin would choose this thing as soon as I guessed it."
"But Brother Lin, this object is a consumable Taiyi Divine Weapon, and it cannot be repaired."
"It can be used up to three times."
"Although this thing is powerful, it is a consumption type."
"Brother Lin, think carefully."
Lin Bai nodded, still firmly choosing the Chaos God Thunder.
These three Taiyi Divine Weapons are all at the top level of Taiyi Divine Weapons.
The sun-shooting ballista was a powerful weapon specially refined by Tianji Pavilion and provided to the Chu State's military headquarters.
Although the Nine Dragons True Fire Shield is a Taiyi divine weapon, it can trap warriors in the realm of Daluo Dao Fruit. If there is enough time, it can even refine Da Luo Dao Fruit.
As for the Chaos Divine Thunder, it is the most powerful among the three Taiyi Divine Weapons and can kill Daluo Daoguo.
If he had this thing in hand, Lin Bai would undoubtedly have many trump cards.
Although it can only be used three times, if used well, it will definitely save Lin Bai three more times.
Seeing that Lin Bai was so determined, His Highness Prince Chen handed the Chaos Divine Thunder to Lin Bai and said at the same time: "Brother Lin has hidden it so deeply."
Lin Bai frowned, "What do you mean, Your Highness?"
His Highness King Chen said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Brother Lin actually has the Supreme Appearance, and he didn't even tell me."
Lin Bai shook his head and said: "Showing your supreme appearance is not what I want."
"Indeed, if Brother Lin hadn't done it for me, he probably wouldn't have revealed it easily." His Highness Prince Chen put his hands behind his back and sighed: "Now that Brother Lin has revealed his supreme appearance, there will be a lot of trouble in the future."
Lin Bai remained silent, knowing that trouble had already come to his door.
His Highness King Chen said: "In the imperial capital, all the powerful forces and top sects in the demon world are now gathered. They have all witnessed Brother Lin's supreme appearance. It is estimated that in the next time, they will try their best to use all possible means.
Use any means to win over Brother Lin."
"Brother Lin, please be careful. Not all sects and families will speak politely to Brother Lin like me."
"Many sects and families have tough styles and are not easy to get along with."
"If Brother Lin provokes them, they will probably rob him directly."
"Maybe...Brother Lin was walking on the street one day and was knocked unconscious with a stick. He was put into a sack and taken away."
When His Highness King Chen said the last part, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and snickered.
Lin Bai was speechless, but he also laughed twice.
