Within the courtyard, Ye Qinghan pushed away Xue Fei who was kneeling in front of him and lightly said, "Go back. We will act today. Within three days, I want the Seventh Prince's forces to collapse."
Xue Fei wiped her mouth as if she had swallowed something. She respectfully nodded and said, "Mister, rest assured. I still have some weight in His Majesty's heart."
Ye Qinghan nodded.
Xue Fei left. Ye Qinghan looked at her back and understood why the Imperial Concubines were fighting for the throne. When the Emperor died, the Imperial Concubines who stood on the wrong side would be buried with him. At that time, who would be buried with him and who would continue to enjoy life would all depend on a single word from the new Emperor!
When the new Emperor appeared, it would be the bloodiest time. The Imperial Concubines who stood on the wrong side, or the arrogant and despotic Imperial Concubines who offended others, would all die! Xue Fei was forced into a dead end. She had no choice but to rely on someone who could sit on the fishing platform. At this moment, Ye Qinghan was that person. She had no other choice.
Whether or not he killed the Imperial Concubines didn't matter. The most important thing was to subvert this power and seize the throne! He had to support a very obedient puppet.
As for who the Emperor was, Ye Qinghan didn't care at all. He only cared about whether or not he was obedient!
After Xue Fei left, Ye Qinghan began to think about who to replace the Seventh Prince and enter the Border Army! He even wanted to replace Xue Cheng Tian.
Xue Cheng Tian was the biggest problem right now. If he could deal with Xue Cheng Tian, the world would fall into his hands.
Supreme God, he lacked a Supreme God!
A generation of Sorcerer, Demon God, Chaos Dragon, Supreme Holy Land's Empyrean Nangong …
Several figures flashed in Ye Qinghan's sea of consciousness. If he wanted to sit in a high position, he needed someone he could trust. This kind of person absolutely couldn't be controlled with restrictions. They were too strong and had their own thoughts. Once restrictions were placed, the result would be the opposite of what he wanted.
Ye Qinghan's actions became bigger and bigger, and his taste became more and more ruthless. Finally, he decided to invite the Supreme Holy Land's Supreme Holy Land's Empyrean Nangong and the Chaos Dragon to help.
…
That night, Ye Qinghan contacted the Fourth and Sixth Princes to discuss how to take down the Seventh Prince.
At this moment, although the Fourth and Sixth Princes had agreed, they were still wary of Ye Qinghan. With the Seventh Prince dead, only two people were qualified to compete for the throne. At this time, they had to think of a way to make Ye Qinghan side with them. Otherwise, they wouldn't even know how they died.
At this moment, the Seventh Prince was silently contacting the people in the military, hoping that they would support him in a high-profile manner so that His Majesty could announce the Crown Prince.
Three days later, it would be the morning court session. It would definitely be the day when the crown prince would be announced.
Time flew by. Over the past three days, the frequency of officials moving about had clearly increased. Ye Qinghan had begun to take the initiative to attack and secretly take down those officials who had not expressed their stance. He now controlled 35% of the government's power. As for the military, he had yet to take down a single person.
The ten great generals of the military department controlled all the armies. The most powerful one was the Snow Border Army's Commander, Xue Chengtian. The day of the crown prince's coronation was getting closer and closer. Xue Chengtian and the nine generals all appeared in the Sacred City. They didn't want to see anyone, nor did they want to see anyone.
However, the ten generals had a private meeting.
"We are all from the military department. Naturally, we have to stand together. If we were to divide the empire into two groups, the civil officials would take up 70% of the power, while the ten of us from the military department would take up 30%! Our attitude is very important. Everyone, tell me, who do you want to support? " Xue Chengtian, as a prince, had the highest status and was in charge of the Snow Border Army. Naturally, he had the right to speak. At this moment, he sat in the military department and asked in a deep voice.
The nine generals were all peak Paramount God experts. They were old and frail, but they were still very strong.
The first general, Xue Yang, was a name bestowed by His Majesty. He was in charge of all the armies under the heavens. He had thirty million Superior God soldiers and a number of Giant Gods. His position was second only to Xue Chengtian.
Xue Yang had the demeanor of a transcendent being. He had an imposing aura and said in a deep voice, "From the military's point of view, supporting the seventh prince is the best choice. However, from the perspective of the Snow Empire and the God Realm, supporting the sixth prince is the best choice. After all, the sixth prince's grandfather, Jiang Zijun, is in charge of the largest financial group in the world. With his support, the military department will not lack resources and will continue to prosper."
"This old man feels that supporting the fourth prince is the best choice. He has deep roots in the Holy City and is quite accomplished in governing a country …" The third general quickly expressed his opinion.
"I support the eighteenth prince. He has the Vanguard Marshal Zuo Feng and the Military Saint Jue Wuxin. If he can control these two people, the world will be stable." The fourth general said strongly.
"I support the seventh prince. He is from the ninth general and has participated in many battles. I have no reason not to support him." The ninth general said firmly.
"Stop!"
Xue Chengtian frowned and waved his hand to stop the quarrel.
"There are only ten generals in the military department and you have divided yourselves into so many factions. What a joke! What we need to consider is the stability of the Snow Empire and the God Realm. We can't have internal strife. That's why I asked you to come here to discuss and recommend a prince to His Majesty to become the Crown Prince. I didn't ask you to come here to quarrel. "
The nine generals immediately fell silent and waited for Xue Chengtian to continue.
"Let me list out the princes who are qualified to become the crown prince. First, the fourth prince has the support of the Divine Sect. The sixth prince has the support of the financial group. The seventh prince has the foundation of the military. It is natural for him to treat the military well. I have no objections if some of you support him. As for the eighteenth prince, he has the support of two elites, Zuo Feng and Jue Wuxin. Although he has no relatives, he is also qualified to compete for the crown prince position. However, will Zuo Feng and Jue Wuxin really support the eighteenth prince?"
Xue Chengtian asked sternly.
Everyone was shocked. At this moment, they seemed to have forgotten about Zuo Feng. If he stood on the fourth prince's side, the fourth prince would win for sure. If he stood on the sixth or seventh prince's side, they would also win for sure. However, what did the eighteenth prince have? If he supported the eighteenth prince, it would be a competition between the four sides. It was hard to say who would win!
"That is why I said that as long as Zuo Feng is not an idiot, he will not pull chestnuts out of the fire and support the eighteenth prince. If he does not support the eighteenth prince, who do you think he will support?" Xue Chengtian frowned.
"The seventh prince? After all, he is also a member of the military. "The ninth general said excitedly.
"If I knew, why would I ask you? So the most important thing now is to ask him who he supports. Or we can recommend two people to discuss with him. That way, we won't stand on the wrong side. After all, he has the initiative. If he chooses the wrong person, we can't start a rebellion. "Xue Chengtian said helplessly.
The generals were all stunned. They thought that the initiative was in their hands. They didn't know that it was in the hands of a sudden imperial guard commander.
Everyone was silent. They didn't know who to recommend.
"Let me give you a suggestion. See if it works." Xue Chengtian smiled bitterly. "There is no difference between the seventh prince and the eighteenth prince. If you have to choose between the two, Zuo Feng and Jue Wuxin will definitely support the eighteenth prince. Since they are familiar with each other, the eighteenth prince has an advantage in terms of feelings and benefits. Therefore, the seventh prince is excluded. As for the sixth prince and the fourth prince, I think he will stand on the sixth prince's side. Because the fourth prince once sent people to kill the eighteenth prince, it is the same as chasing Zuo Feng. Now, if you agree with my suggestion, I will go find him tonight."
