Puppet emperor?Summon three thousand Xuanjia troops at the beginning

Chapter 741: The Killing Plan
Some time passed.

After constant conflicts, the Holy Kingdom of Donglin gradually returned to peace.

After all, all forces in the entire Holy Kingdom of Donglin are trying their best to suppress the intensity of this battle.

If the Donglin Holy Kingdom fights too hard, it will likely cause big problems for the Donglin Holy Kingdom, so no matter which force it is, no one wants such a situation to happen.

The other two holy kingdoms actually hope that the conflict between them and the Donglin Holy Kingdom can last a little longer.

However, seeing that the two princes they supported could not gain much advantage in a short period of time, they gave up this idea.

After all, for them, letting the Donglin Holy Kingdom destroy itself is not a good thing, as that would result in their remaining two holy kingdoms having no room for buffer.

Therefore, unless he can ensure that the prince he supports gains the upper hand within a short period of time and obtains leadership power with absolute advantage.

Otherwise, they would never allow such disputes to continue.

By this time, the battle could be said to have passed a stage.

As for this, Zhou Yuan had been sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between the princes.

It was not much different from what he imagined.

The fight between the four princes before them was relatively peaceful. It seemed like they were fighting for power, but in fact the difference in losses between the two sides was not that big.

It's as if there is a dark hand behind the scenes, controlling everything.

"I don't know what the situation is like in the dynasty. We have been away for such a long time. I think Zhuge Liang should have done everything that should be done."

There were no other major events happening in the Holy Kingdom of Donglin, so his attention was also turned to the Kingdom of Daqian.

According to their original plan, after he left the Great Qian Kingdom, Zhuge Liang should lead the entire Great Qian Kingdom to attack the other kingdoms.

If all goes well, by the time he returns, except for the Daxuan Dynasty, the other powerful countries should have been destroyed.

And given the current situation of the Donglin Holy Kingdom, even if they did this, the Donglin Holy Kingdom would not send troops against them.

On the side, Liu Bowen smiled and said:
“Please rest assured, Your Majesty. You should be very clear about Prime Minister Zhuge’s methods. With his ability, he can definitely accomplish this.

I think Prime Minister Zhuge's goal this time should be to clear up the internal situation in Daqian first.

After all, there have been many problems within our Great Qian Kingdom during this period of time. Those disciples from aristocratic families have been trying to fight for power and have caused a lot of trouble. If we let them continue, it will inevitably bring too much trouble to the Great Qian Kingdom.

I think by the time we return, Prime Minister Zhuge will have made Daqian Kingdom a sunny place."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan also smiled.

"You are right, Kong Ming has such ability, and I have already left enough trump cards in the dynasty.

Even if some unexpected troubles arise, we should be able to deal with them."

He was not very worried about the current situation of the Great Qian Kingdom.

After all, there are the Twelve Golden Men.

He has handed over the control of these twelve golden men. With the abilities of Zhuge Liang and others, even if some unexpected troubles arise, these twelve golden men will be able to completely quell the unrest in a short time.

It’s a pity that the Twelve Golden Men have limitations after all.

Although these twelve golden men are powerful, they can only function within Zhutian City. Once they leave Zhutian City, their twelve skills will be useless.

But this is enough.

With the current strength of the Great Qian Kingdom, if any dynasty could invade the entire country of the Great Qian Kingdom silently, then the Great Qian Kingdom deserves to be destroyed.

Therefore, the only possibility is that those children from noble families may have some means beyond his expectations, which may bring trouble to the Great Qian Kingdom.

But all of this will only happen in Zhutian City.

Not only Zhuge Liang and those aristocratic families knew that it was absolutely impossible for them to rebel directly.

Zhou Yuan also understood this very well.

After thinking it through, he didn't care much about it anymore.

At this moment, someone suddenly came in and said:
"Saint Lord, the Great Prince of the Donglin Holy Kingdom is here."

Zhou Yuan was a little surprised to hear this.

Although their Great Qian Kingdom had some contact with the eldest prince during this period, he never joined the Great Qian Kingdom.

The same was true for the other princes.

It is precisely because they have sufficient strength of their own, and have not joined the forces of any prince, that the Daqian Kingdom can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai as it is now.

I just don’t know why the eldest prince would suddenly come to their Daqian Kingdom.

"please"

Zhou Yuan spoke.

Since the Crown Prince of the Donglin Holy Kingdom has come, he naturally has to let him in.

Not long after, the Crown Prince of the Donglin Holy Kingdom walked in.

After seeing Zhou Yuan, the eldest prince of Donglin Sheng Kingdom smiled.

"Brother Zhou, long time no see."

Zhou Yuan smiled and nodded, then said:
“It hasn’t been that long, but I didn’t expect that the eldest prince would be able to take time out of his busy schedule to come to my Daqian Kingdom’s residence.

I wonder what you are thinking this time?"

After hearing Zhou Yuan's words, the eldest prince of Donglin Sheng Kingdom became more serious and said:
"Brother Zhou, I came here this time hoping that you could help me with something."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan said:
"Grand Prince, you should also know that our Great Qian Kingdom has never been involved in the disputes between the princes of the Donglin Holy Kingdom, so I'm sorry that I can't obey your order on this matter."

The expression of the eldest prince of the Donglin Holy Kingdom did not change at all, and then he said:
"Brother Zhou, don't worry. I didn't come here this time just to get you to join my side.

You should be very familiar with the current situation in the Holy Kingdom of Donglin. We brothers have been fighting with each other, and as a result, we have made a lot of jokes.

But no matter what, the throne cannot be handed over, and the most important thing is that the other two holy countries must not be allowed to interfere.

The location of the Daqian Kingdom is also within the territory of my Donglin Holy Kingdom. If the other two holy kingdoms get involved, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the Donglin Holy Kingdom.

I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Great Qian Kingdom to remain immune.

This time I came here with the intention of uniting the Great Qian Kingdom and other dynasties to exclude the Second Prince and the Seventh Prince, who were supported by the other two holy nations, from the race for the throne.

I have already discussed this matter with Old Thirteen and other people from the Donglin Holy Kingdom.

If you are worried, you can go and verify it with Old Thirteen."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan's eyes flashed, and then he nodded.

"If this is the case, then our Great Qian Kingdom will naturally have an obligation to help. I just don't know what you, the Great Prince, are going to do."

The way that best suits the interests of the Great Qian Kingdom now is naturally to seize power from the Donglin Holy Kingdom, and it will not fall into the hands of the second prince and the seventh prince.

After all, the two princes did not receive the support of the Donglin Holy Kingdom itself, but received the support of the other two holy kingdoms.

The most important goal of the other two holy kingdoms is to weaken the power of the Donglin Holy Kingdom to a certain extent, but not to cause the collapse of the Donglin Holy Kingdom.

Of course, if they see an opportunity, these two holy nations will naturally act without hesitation.

But judging from the current situation, the second prince and the seventh prince have obviously become abandoned pawns.

After hearing Zhou Yuan's answer, the eldest prince of Donglin Sheng Kingdom narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"In three days, I will kill the men of the Second and Seventh Brothers. I hope you can send some people to support us."

After finishing speaking, the Crown Prince of Donglin Holy Kingdom left immediately.

Zhou Yuan was not a fool either. He immediately arranged for Jia Xu to investigate the truth of the matter.

Although everything the Crown Prince of Donglin Sheng Kingdom said now is consistent with his judgment of the current situation, the final outcome still needs to be observed through Jia Xu's intelligence.

Not long after, Jia Xu brought back the information. Just as the eldest prince of Donglin Sheng State said, the thirteenth prince was also taking action against the second and seventh princes.

So this matter is most likely not false.

Moreover, theoretically speaking, the Crown Prince of the Donglin Holy Kingdom had no reason to deal with their Daqian Kingdom.

"It seems that we have to take action after all."

Zhou Yuan spoke.

Jia Xu nodded and said:

"Now is indeed the time. So much time has passed, and the situation in the East Lin Holy Kingdom has gradually become clear. If the Second Prince and the Seventh Prince are excluded from the race for the throne, then only the First Prince and the Thirteenth Prince will be left to compete.

Although the eldest prince does not have enough power as a semi-saint, he controls most of the military power of the Donglin Holy Kingdom.

Although those semi-saints are powerful, it is impossible for them to attack the Crown Prince directly.

From this point of view, the eldest prince still has certain advantages.

Furthermore, the Sword Dynasty's attitude is unclear. If we let them take the lead, it may be disadvantageous to us."

Liu Bowen added:

"Apart from these two princes, what worries me most is the possible existence of a third party force."

Zhou Yuan shook his head.

“The military and the semi-saints have already joined the First and Thirteenth Princes. Under such circumstances, unless the third party can find enough means to win over one of them.

Otherwise, no matter how skilled he is, it will be meaningless to you."

This is not about judgment, but the most direct reality.

So Jia Xu and Liu Bowen also nodded.

This is naturally extremely difficult.

The Donglin Holy Kingdom is quite powerful. Both the military and the semi-saints possess power far beyond that of the Daqian Kingdom.

The same was true of other foreign dynasties.

Moreover, these dynasties are unlikely to be won over by the mysterious third-party force, and most of them have already made their own decisions.

It was already too late for them to take over the country.

I'm afraid that only countries like their Daqian Kingdom and the Sword Dynasty, which claim to be strong enough, are qualified to delay entry.

If those weak dynasties dared to wait until now.

What awaits them is definitely not a good thing.

Therefore, the power of the entire Donglin Holy Kingdom has now been divided up between the two parties, leaving no room for a third party to join.

After making the decision, Zhou Yuan did not hesitate.

“This time we are encircling and suppressing the forces of the Second and Seventh Princes. After all, we are just an outside force, so we don’t need to take too much responsibility.

This time, Han Xin will lead the team. Our main purpose this time is not to participate in the war, but to confirm our position on the side of the Donglin Holy Nation."

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

The entire capital of the Holy Kingdom of Donglin seemed very peaceful during these three days.

Filled with a solemn and murderous atmosphere.

The Second Prince and the Seventh Prince also obviously sensed something was wrong, and both sides immediately began to mobilize their own troops and contact forces in various places.

But even so, they didn't get any feedback.

This made the two princes feel uneasy, but they had no way to solve the problem in a short period of time.

The third day arrived.

Under Zhou Yuan's instructions, Han Xin led his men towards the target that had already been arranged.

The target is a strong man above the ninth rank. This person is quite powerful and also controls a certain army.

The most important thing is that this person has a very close relationship with the Seventh Prince.

If this person doesn't die, it is very likely to cause trouble to the Donglin Holy Kingdom.

Han Xin was walking on the road, with some of the eldest prince's elite troops behind him. Beside him, Yuwen Chengdu, Lu Bu, and Gai Nie followed closely behind.

The residence of the eldest prince.

A person suddenly appeared, and when the eldest prince saw this person, his expression did not change at all.

“How is the situation?

It has been confirmed that Han Xin led the troops there, and they were all elite soldiers, but Li Yuanba did not go."

Hearing this, the eldest prince didn't care at all and just said:
"In that case, tell the people below that they can start."

As he said this, he crushed the teacup in his hand.

"Since you are ignorant, don't blame me."

After the eldest prince finished speaking, the man disappeared as if he had never appeared.

At this moment, a man walked out from the side hall.

When the eldest prince saw this person, a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"How come the Sword Master has time to come here?"

The Lord of the Sword Dynasty smiled and said:

"We are going to take action against the Great Qian Kingdom today, and I naturally want to take a look. Now that the Sword Dynasty and the Crown Prince are cooperating, this is a win-win situation for both of us.

After today, I believe that there will be no force in the Donglin Holy Nation that can contend with you."

The eldest prince laughed.

"That's right, cooperation is beneficial to both sides.

I naturally know the strength of the Sword Dynasty.

When I take the throne, I will definitely provide sufficient convenience to the Sword Dynasty."

There was a deep smile in the eldest prince's eyes.

The Great Qian Kingdom has been dragging its feet for such a long time and is still unwilling to submit to him.

Of course he understood why.

They also knew that the Great Qian Kingdom had the qualifications to delay because they had enough strength.

But who made the Sword Dynasty join him?

The strength of the Sword Dynasty is no worse than that of the Great Qian Kingdom, and may even be stronger.

Even he did not expect that the Sword Dynasty would end so early and join his side.

In this case, he naturally no longer needs to wait for the answer from the Great Qian Kingdom.

From today on, he is invincible!
