Puppet emperor?Summon three thousand Xuanjia troops at the beginning

Chapter 732 Three Holy Kingdoms
After hearing the eldest prince's voice, everyone's expressions changed.

"Your Highness!"

His guards saluted quickly.

Liu Bowen also saluted the eldest prince.

The eldest prince looked at everyone, and then continued to ask:
"What on earth happened today? Why did the minister of Daqian State encounter an assassination here?"

His eyes were very serious because he knew very well what the consequences of this matter would be.

At this moment, there was infinite anger in his heart.

Daxuan invited him to this event today.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he hoped to tie the Daxuan Dynasty and himself to the chariot.

So at this time he invited many ministers from the same faction as him.

But no one expected that Liu Bowen would be assassinated at this time.

Although this matter has nothing to do with him, the current situation is very obvious and he will definitely be implicated.

One careless move could very likely lead to a conflict between him and the Great Qian Kingdom.

This is not what he wants.

It will still be very valuable to him in the future.

After all, many of those who support him in the dynasty are actually strong people below the level of Semi-Saint.

Even though this faction holds considerable power, it is very lacking in high-end power.

The Great Qian Kingdom is not only a powerful country, but most importantly, it has a large number of semi-saints. If he can get the support of the Great Qian Kingdom, it will naturally be of great help to him in stabilizing the situation.

So he was already very angry in his heart.

Liu Bowen then said:
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Crown Prince. I don't know why I came here today and was assassinated. The identities of these people cannot be confirmed yet."

His eyes flashed as he spoke because he noticed something unusual in some of the assassins.

These people are most likely from the Guiyun Dynasty.

Their Daqian Kingdom had a lot of contact with these dynasties, and he was also aware of the characteristics of the Guiyun Dynasty. Although these people had hidden their identities as much as possible, such hiding was still too easy for him.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the other party is trying to frame the Guiyun Dynasty.

But there is no information now, so all this is just speculation.

But as long as the identities of these people are not confirmed, he must not treat the eldest prince in any strange way here.

He had already anticipated today's assassination.

After hearing this, the eldest prince immediately said:
"Don't worry, Lord Liu. I will give an explanation to the Great Qian Kingdom as long as I am here. I will never let these assassins go unpunished and will definitely investigate their identities."

After saying this, the eldest prince immediately made arrangements.

At the same time, the eldest prince's face became very pale. After Liu Bowen left, the eldest prince returned to the seat where he entertained everyone.

Looking at the expressions of the people in the Daxuan Dynasty.

His eyes turned a little colder.

What a coincidence...

People from the Daqian Kingdom were assassinated here, and people from the Daxuan Dynasty invited him to a party here.

All of this may seem unrelated, but he is not a fool.

If he were a fool, he would not be standing in his current position, so in his heart, this matter may not be unrelated to the Daxuan Dynasty.

In other words, the Daxuan Dynasty seemed to be very close to him, but what was the real purpose of this dynasty? It was still unknown.

"Damn bastard!"

He cursed inwardly, but eventually suppressed all those expressions.

There is no sign of anything yet, just speculation.

Naturally, he could not show his emotions and cause the Daxuan Dynasty to become alienated from him.

What if the Daxuan Dynasty wasn't trying to trick him?

On the other side, after Liu Bowen left, he immediately returned to the headquarters of Daqian State and informed Zhou Yuan of what happened there.

After finishing his explanation, Liu Bowen continued:
“Saint Lord, this matter seems to be the work of the Guiyuan Dynasty, but with the current strength of the Guiyun Dynasty, I once thought that they would never be able to do this.

What's more, this matter is a little too obvious.

So this matter should be related to the Guiyun Dynasty, but there are definitely other forces behind it.

Otherwise, they just don’t have the courage to do so.”

Zhou Yuan nodded.

"It seems that the curtain is about to be raised."

They have been here for some time, but because of the different relationships between the dynasties and the Holy Kingdom of Donglin, the time for the Grand Tide Conference has not yet arrived.

The entire Holy Kingdom of Donglin became more and more lively, but everything was undercurrent and had not been exposed.

It is conceivable that the great tide will definitely be the climax of this battle for the throne of the Holy Kingdom of Donglin.

But now all parties are accumulating their own strength.

Someone wants to take action against their Great Qian Kingdom...

"Investigate the relevant situation immediately and find out which prince of the Guiyun Dynasty has been close to in recent times."

When he got to this point, Jia Xu came over and said:
“Saint Lord, Gui Yu Chao and the eldest prince have been very close recently, but this matter is rather secretive.

So we are just judging by some clues.”

Zhou Yuan was a little surprised when he heard this:
“You mean, this assassination was most likely staged by the eldest prince himself, and he appeared there just to eliminate suspicion.

But why would he do that?"

Zhou Yuan didn't quite understand.

Jia Xu shook his head and said:
“That may not be the case. From what we can see now, it is indeed possible that the eldest prince staged this incident himself, but this is only the information we were able to investigate.

However, there is a lot of information in the Holy Kingdom of Donglin that is beyond our current capabilities.

According to my current judgment, in this battle for the throne, the eldest prince is at a disadvantage, and the other princes have advantages over the eldest prince in all aspects.

The eldest prince's only support is his older age and strong personal strength. He has been in contact with many military officers at the border for many years, so he has good strength.

But in fact, he did not have a deep foundation in the court.

Especially those semi-saints, they didn't care much about him.

Or……

He is not easy to control for those semi-saints.

If the eldest prince were to succeed to the throne, it would be a terrible outcome for these semi-saints.

Therefore, at present, these semi-saints prefer the Thirteenth Prince.

Because the Thirteenth Prince is younger and weaker, in order to ascend to the throne, he will definitely give these semi-saints better conditions. "

At this point Jia Xu sighed, and then continued:
“This Donglin Holy Nation is completely different from our Great Qian State. In our Great Qian State, semi-saints do not need to participate in ordinary affairs.

But for the Donglin Holy Kingdom, the semi-saints are the real pillars of this dynasty, and the forces of all parties cannot get rid of the existence of semi-saints. "Hearing this, Zhou Yuan nodded.

Indeed, the situation in the Donglin Holy Kingdom is completely different from that in their Daqian Kingdom.

The Donglin Holy Kingdom is too powerful, and the one who is high above in the Donglin Holy Kingdom is a true saint.

Although the strength of these semi-saints is not bad, and perhaps they can hold the supreme status in their superior countries, but in the Donglin Holy Country it is another concept.

The Donglin Holy Kingdom is very powerful, and there are quite a few semi-saints among them. Therefore, in order to gain more luck, these semi-saints naturally need to shoulder some responsibilities.

It is for this reason that cities in various places are built by semi-saints themselves.

Because in this dynasty, the semi-saints are not really superior.

That is why a semi-saint would come down to the mortal world and get involved in the prince's fight for the throne.

"Where's the Seventh Prince?
Where does his power come from?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the Seventh Prince should be backed by the Holy Kingdom of Cang Zhou."

"Cang Zhou Holy Country?"

Zhou Yuan's face darkened.

The Cangzhou Holy Kingdom, like the Donglin Holy Kingdom, is one of the three great holy kingdoms.

Although they judged from the beginning that it was very likely that the other two holy nations were also involved in the fight for the throne, Zhou Yuan still couldn't help but look a little grim after getting confirmation.

Because compared to the current Great Qian Kingdom, the power of these three holy countries has all exceeded the limit of what the Great Qian Kingdom can resist.

Therefore, if possible, Zhou Yuan does not want to have anything to do with these three holy countries.

His original purpose of coming here was to understand the power of the Holy Kingdom of Donglin and to know the structure of the world dynasty, but he did not intend to get too deeply involved at the beginning.

However, it seems that it is extremely difficult to continue to stay outside the border. After all, they have now truly entered the center of the battle for the throne, and even if they want to retreat, it is probably impossible.

"Since the Holy Kingdom of Cang Zhou has already ended, then the Great Sui should also end."

The Great Sui Dynasty is the last of the three holy kingdoms.

It can even be said that this dynasty was the most powerful dynasty in the world.

Because Hongsheng is in this dynasty.

As for the status of Hongsheng, according to previous lives, he is comparable to Confucius.

Jia Xu nodded.

“However, we have not been exposed to enough information so far, so we are still unable to understand clearly which prince the Sui Dynasty has chosen.

But at the moment, the situation is more complicated than we thought.”

Sorting out the various trends, Zhou Yuan sighed.

He would rather fight in person with the dynasties than get involved in these troublesome affairs.

It's just that they really can't push it away now.

"Wait"

Zhou Yuan spoke.

"Someone has already made a move, and others will naturally follow suit. Although our Great Qian Kingdom has become their pawn this time, there will always be someone who reveals his true colors. Then we will naturally know who to deal with."

Everyone nodded.

Then I put the matter in my heart and ignored it.

After all, although the current situation is a bit complicated for them, their Daqian Kingdom has enough power to occupy a certain initiative even in the Donglin Holy Kingdom.

In the following period of time, the situation began to change rapidly, just as they had imagined.

Everything was originally according to the procedure, but this has not been the case during this period, and various problems seem to have surfaced.

Each prince began to make contact with the Great Qian Kingdom, but at the same time, there were constant frictions between the forces of the princes, and even many kingdoms were drawn into this friction.

So many people have died every day in recent times.

Faced with such a situation, the Great Qian Kingdom remained calm and confident.

The enemy's strength is not enough to threaten their existence.

And at this time, the Thirteenth Prince was there.

There was a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.

He has done a lot of things recently.

The last assassination was arranged by him. However, after the assassination, although the eldest prince had been investigating, he had not found the real key.

In the end, the eldest prince set his sights on the seventh prince.

The initial confrontation between the two sides allowed him, the Thirteenth Prince, to stand out and not be provoked.

Although he was affected to some extent, his strength was not damaged after all.

"Now everyone knows that this matter was done by Gui Chao. I am afraid that Gui Yun and the dynasty will suffer a great loss. But please rest assured that I will never let those who work for me feel disappointed."

The Thirteenth Prince spoke.

Beside him, the Semi-Saint of the Guiyun Dynasty sat beside him.

There was a faint smile between the two of them, as this matter was all their doing.

Xiansheng smiled and said:

"Of course, our Guiyun Dynasty believes in Your Highness. Although this matter was caused by us, I am afraid we cannot do what comes next. After all, the strength of our Guiyun Dynasty is limited, so Your Highness will need to take action personally in the future."

The Thirteenth Prince nodded.

There was a strong sense of confidence in his eyes.

"Don't worry, everything is under my control."

Then he picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it in one gulp.

The princes have been fighting each other recently, but no one knows how much he has accomplished.

Not only the Guiyun Dynasty in front of him, but also many other dynasties, such as Juping and Daxuan, have all secretly defected to him.

The eldest prince thought that the Daxuan Society would be a help to him.

But how would that idiot know that?

The current Daxuan has already been serving him.

And what about the Seventh Prince? Even if he gets support from external forces, what can he do?

He scoffed.

Foreign forces are foreign forces after all.

No matter how powerful they are, they can't do anything in front of their Donglin Holy Kingdom.

Moreover, all the forces in their Donglin Holy Kingdom would never support a prince like No. 7 who had defected to foreign forces to ascend to the throne.

So now, he has the overall situation under control.
