With the official seal in hand, the two of them were promoted several ranks in an instant!
The three princes had contributed greatly to Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin's promotion. They thought that it was Xue Wuhen who had given them the opportunity to subdue these two demons, but they didn't know that Xue Wuhen had done it on purpose. If Xue Wuhen had recommended the two of them, the three princes would never have agreed to let them become the commanders of the two most important armies in the Holy City.
Loosening the reins only to grasp them better!
Xue Wuhen was laughing so hard that his stomach hurt. He liked the divine bird more and more. It had woken him up with a single sentence. The divine bird had given the two most important positions to Jue Wuxin and Ye Qinghan, and the ones who had given them the positions were still feeling smug about it.
Ye Qinghan couldn't help but look at Xue Wuhen. He knew that with Xue Wuhen's intelligence, he would never have thought of such a treacherous idea. It was probably the divine bird's doing again.
After the court session ended, the Emperor quickly left. The ministers all congratulated Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin, wanting to express their goodwill. Some of the ministers who hadn't taken sides were also tempted. With the three princes' protection and His Majesty's love, there would definitely be no problem following the two of them!
On the first night, Ye Qinghan prepared to investigate the remnants of the Ninth Prince's party. However, these people were smarter than ghosts. They had smelled the danger ahead of time. That night, they offered large amounts of resources and wealth to Ye Qinghan to show their loyalty.
Ye Qinghan accepted all of it. He symbolically punished these officials in a high-profile manner, ordering them to enforce the family law and strictly control their children. They also had to compensate and apologize to the victims in order to be forgiven.
However, some of the officials and rich children didn't want to beg for mercy. They were proud that Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin had just been promoted and didn't dare to act recklessly. Unfortunately, they were disappointed!
That night, the residences of the Ninth Prince's party were all surrounded. The rich and powerful families were all surrounded by the city guards and the imperial guards!
Only now did everyone realize just how swift and decisive Ye Qinghan and Heartless were.
However, Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin were very cautious. They only captured the remnants of the Ninth Prince's faction and did not touch the people from the other three factions. This caused them to lower their guard and feel that if they showed goodwill, they would have a chance to side with them. Therefore, not only did the three princes not make things difficult for the Imperial Guard and the City Guards, they even took the initiative to provide evidence of their crimes.
Those who dared to act arrogantly against the Imperial Army and City Guards were all tied up and taken away. However, most of them still chose to submit.
Thirty-three City Lord Mansions, sixteen Distinguished Families, and six Sects.
Only the two City Lords were arrogant and despotic. They actually wanted to resist, but they were taken down by the Imperial Guards on the spot. The City Lords were detained, and their entire families were thrown into prison. Their crimes were all sent to the Snow Palace and reported to the Emperor. They secretly recommended their own people to take up positions in the two cities.
That night, many families were arrested in succession. Everyone in the Holy City was in a state of panic. The three princes' families were full of guests, and they were all afraid of being implicated.
The three princes had a look of understanding on their faces as they comforted the crowd.
The Fourth Prince indifferently said to the leaders and officials of the various factions, "Don't worry, these two people were recommended by me. No matter how bad they are, they will still give me face. Didn't you see that the people they arrested were all Ninth Prince's people? They didn't touch any of our people!"
At this moment, the Sixth Prince and the Seventh Prince did not sleep at all. They were watching Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin's performance.
Some people were happy, some people were sad. The common people were happy, and the rich and powerful were trembling. That night, the Holy City entered a sleepless night.
The Ninth Prince became a cripple in a day. He did not understand why the three princes suddenly attacked and killed him. In terms of strength, it was impossible for him to arouse the hostility of the three princes. Moreover, he had always been on good terms with the three princes. At least on the surface, it was very good.
At this moment, the Ninth Prince was thrown into the cold palace and confined to his own courtyard. He was at a loss.
"Your Highness, our faction is finished. After Zuo Feng and Jue Wuxin took over, they arrested all of our loyal people and imprisoned them. The rest of the people are also under their names! We … … we have no chance! "An old servant said in grief and indignation, his face full of tears.
"Zuo Feng! Jue Wuxin, this Prince was kind enough to entertain you and show you goodwill. How can you be so ruthless! Don't give me a chance, or I will kill you first! "The Ninth Prince was furious.
"Your Highness, we can't offend these two now. If we want to turn the tables, we need to rely on them … …" The old servant said hoarsely.
"How can we turn the tables? Since these two people attacked my people, they have already made their attitude clear. They will not cooperate with me! "The Ninth Prince said in despair.
"We can ask the Imperial Concubine to help. After all, she is in the palace. Maybe she can ask His Majesty for mercy. We will have a chance to take back the Imperial Guards and the City Protection Army." The old servant suggested.
"You send people to attack Mother! At this point, this Prince is not satisfied! "The Ninth Prince's ferocious gaze was extremely terrifying. It was as if he wanted to tear Ye Qinghan apart.
… …
It was almost daybreak. Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin joined forces and rushed through hundreds of factions, taking over one-tenth of the Holy City's forces.
At this time, they were short of manpower. They could not use Xue Wuhen's people, nor could they use the other princes' people. They had to have these people in the palm of their hands. This way, the other princes would not question them and would not know who they were loyal to.
In the end, Ye Qinghan transferred a group of people from Cloud City. He transferred Sister Yao, Aunt Thirteen, and the others. Otherwise, they would not have enough people.
The Fourth Prince, the Sixth Prince, and the Seventh Prince had also secretly sent four of their trusted aides, hoping that Ye Qinghan would insert them into the group. Ye Qinghan had satisfied all of their requests, making them extremely happy. If Ye Qinghan had not agreed to pledge his loyalty, why would he be willing to insert his own people into the group?
At this time, the three princes could not wait for Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin's forces to become stronger. When the time came, they would show an overwhelming advantage and seize the position of Crown Prince in one fell swoop.
At this time, Xue Wuhen did not fight for it. He stayed by the Emperor's side day and night. Those who wanted to get close to the Emperor and overthrow Ye Qinghan and Jue Wuxin were secretly stopped by him. He said that he was helping the Emperor with the mundane affairs, so that the Emperor would not tire himself out.
The Emperor was very pleased and valued Xue Wuhen more and more. Sometimes, he would give important things to Xue Wuhen to do.
Xue Wuhen also began to secretly insert some of his trusted subordinates into important positions.
The next day, Ye Qinghan began to meet with those who had not yet expressed their stance. Most people could see that whoever Ye Qinghan supported would be the Crown Prince. At this time, it was better to choose Ye Qinghan than to choose a prince!
Most of the city lords and forces who had not yet taken sides took the initiative to join. In three days, there were more than three hundred major forces! They occupied thirty percent of the forces on the surface! In a short time, they became the biggest supporters.
The total support of the three princes was not more than sixty percent. Now, the remaining ten percent would rather die than take a side. They were careful not to go overboard and bring a fatal disaster to themselves.
On the fourth day, Xie Nianxue, Di Longtian, and a dozen other people came from Great Wasteland Domain to Cloud City to wait for Ye Qinghan's orders. Once they arrived, they would truly invade Snow Empire's Divine World from the inside!
