Faced with the wooing of several princes, Wang Yanzhao took the approach of not helping anyone.
At the same time, he also released words to the outside world, saying that no matter who wins the final victory, he will support it unconditionally.
Because of Wang Yanzhao's words, several princes fought more fiercely, and even bloodshed occurred frequently.
In addition to Wang Yanzhao, several princes turned their targets to a big prince. In their opinion, those princes not only had high prestige in the Dali Kingdom, but also had troops. If they could be brought over, what would happen to them?
Their final victory will give them a huge advantage.
However, those who can become princes are all shrewd people. Faced with the solicitation and wooing of several princes, they were unmoved at first and rejected all the princes righteously.
In their words, they are just princes of the kingdom and are only responsible for guarding the territory of the kingdom. As for the fight for the throne, that is a royal matter and it is inconvenient for them to participate in it.
But after several princes made serious promises to them, they began to take sides and each chose a prince to support.
Of course, not all the princes chose the camp. Baizhanhou Qiulin and Nantianhou Xu Nantian did not make a choice. To be precise, they did not have time to make a choice, because at the moment they were in Baizhan City, for Ji Dali
Worrying about things.
At this time, Baizhanhou Mansion.
The huge Hou Mansion was in a state of gloom and gloom, all because Ji Dali's health was deteriorating.
Almost everyone understands that if Zhang Yifeng cannot come back in time, Ji Dali's life may be in danger.
In fact, Ji Dali had already passed out before Qiu Lin, Xu Nantian and others returned to Baizhan City.
These days, they are recruiting talented people, alchemists and pharmacists everywhere, hoping to cure Ji Dali's condition.
But what made them feel heavy was that after checking Ji Dali's physical condition, all the alchemists and pharmacists said that Ji Dali was hopeless and asked them to quickly prepare for Ji Dali's funeral.
Qiu Lin and Xu Nantian naturally cannot accept this result. They always believe that as long as Zhang Yifeng can come back in time, all problems will be solved. With Zhang Yifeng here, Ji Dali will definitely not die.
They almost have a paranoid confidence in Zhang Yifeng. It seems that no matter how difficult the problem is, as long as Zhang Yifeng is here, it will be solved.
Just when everyone was extremely anxiously waiting for Zhang Yifeng, Tiancheng broke through.
Zhang Yifeng returned to the ancestral residence of Xu Mansion.
"Father, I'm back."
Zhang Yifeng shouted loudly.
But Xu Nantian was not seen coming out.
"Is this Master Zhang Yifeng? Grandpa is not at home."
The butler's voice came.
"Not at home? Where did they go?" Zhang Yifeng asked.
The housekeeper frowned and said, "They went to Baizhan City and walked in a hurry, as if something big happened."
"Baizhan City? Something big happened?"
Zhang Yifeng's expression changed immediately, and he rushed towards Baizhan City as quickly as possible.
…
Time passes and the day passes quickly.
At this time, the Baizhan Hou Mansion was still gloomy and gloomy.
In the hall, Ye Lingshu said with a worried look: "Dali's situation is getting worse and worse. Lao Xu, has Xu Dao not replied yet?"
Xu Nantian nodded, smiled bitterly, and said: "I have sent him a message several times, but I have never received a response. Maybe he was held back by something."
Hearing this, Ye Lingshu looked even more anxious.
"But if he doesn't come back, Dali will die."
Since she adopted Zhang Yifeng and Ji Dali as her adopted sons, she has treated them as her own children. Although Ji Dali's relationship with her is not as close as Zhang Yifeng's, she felt very uncomfortable when she saw that Ji Dali was critically ill.
At this time, Qiu Xue said in a sad tone: "Brother Ji is like this because of me. If anything happens to Brother Ji, I will not live alone."
"Nonsense!"
Hearing Qiu Xue's words, Qiu Lin scolded him coldly: "Xiaoxue, none of us expected that something happened to Dali. If anything happens to him, I will give Xu Dao an explanation. It will be another turn for him."
It’s not until you show up.”
Qiu Xue smiled miserably, shook her head, lowered her head, and secretly wept.
Even though Mrs. Qiu and Ye Lingshu were comforting her, her mood still seemed very low.
At this time, Xu Nantian's voice came: "Brother Qiu, do you think the death of His Majesty has anything to do with Xu Dao?"
Xu Nantian's words were like thunder that exploded in everyone's minds.
Xu Nantian's guess made everyone stunned.
You know, the king is not comparable to someone like Wanyan Jue. He is the supreme ruler of a kingdom. Although Zhang Yifeng has always been bold, he is not bold enough to dare to kill the king, right?
However, when everyone heard Xu Nantian's guess, the first reaction in their minds was that it was possible!
Because judging from the many things Zhang Yifeng has done before, although this thing seems a bit incredible, if it were placed on Zhang Yifeng, he could really do it.
"impossible!"
Ye Lingshu shook his head and firmly denied it.
"Why is it impossible?" Qiu Lin and others asked.
Ye Lingshu took a deep breath and explained: "Xu Dao is a measured person. Things like killing the king have absolutely nothing to do with him!"
Perhaps even Ye Lingshu herself didn't notice that when she spoke just now, her tone was a little less confident.
Hearing Ye Lingshu's words, Qiu Lin secretly smiled bitterly.
In fact, before Xu Nantian expressed his guess, he also had this guess in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud.
When he first received the news of the king's death, he was shocked and thought it was impossible.
Because in the history of the Dali Kingdom, there had never been a situation where the king was killed, and he had been on the battlefield with Dugu Yan before, so he knew very well that Dugu Yan was not weak in strength.
Although after so many years, Duguyan has been busy with state affairs and neglected his cultivation, but with his strength, it is not something that ordinary people can kill.
As one of the princes of the Dali Kingdom, Qiu Lin knew very well what Duguyan's death meant.
At the same time, he also knew that Duguyan's death would make the situation in Dali Kingdom more complicated and unpredictable.
It was precisely for this reason that he flatly rejected all the princes' attempts to win over him after discussing it with Xu Nantian.
At this time, for them, the best choice is to remain neutral and wait and see.
