The Northern Suppression District was indeed a flourishing place. It was a vast land with a peaceful atmosphere and few fights. It was indeed rare to have such a sacred land at the border.
Ye Qinghan had been inspecting the Northern Suppression District for more than a year. He looked at every corner of the district and recorded all the good points of the Northern Suppression King's governance plan. It was not only to help him become the crown prince but also to govern the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture.
After Ye Qinghan finished inspecting the Northern Suppression District, before he returned, the imperial capital summoned all the Marquises.
All the King Marquises and Royal Uncles were summoned, including Yan Ao, the newly crowned Yan King.
Ye Qinghan sent a message to Yan Ao, telling him to wait for him in the Northern Suppression District.
Half a month later, Yan Ao appeared in the Northern Suppression District, heading towards the imperial capital with the Northern Suppression King and Ye Qinghan.
The Northern Suppression King's dragon carriage was pulled by three powerful mid-tier Mystic Immortal level immortal beasts. Its speed was much faster than flying on their own.
It would take a few years for the Mystic Immortal level immortal beasts to travel across half of the Immortal Immortal level immortal beasts.
The twelve marquises, who were all at the Golden Immortal level, had already arrived. They had already begun to secretly discuss which prince they would support as the Crown Prince. More than twenty royal uncles formed their own alliances, and as a whole, they revolved around the four or five princes.
Xuanyuan Xuan God had been running around for Xuanyuan Zhe Cang. Many of them had yet to express their stance because of Ye Qinghan.
Half of them chose to remain neutral. Without a clear situation, they would not choose a side and would listen to the Immortal Monarch's orders.
Immortal Monarch Qing Zun saw everything. This was not the first time the crown prince was crowned and the scene was always the same. Thus, he was not looking forward to it. But now, with the addition of the arrogant Heaven Suppression Marquis, he wanted to see if there would be any surprises when the old Marquis and the new Marquis clashed.
Xuanyuan Qingyun was once again brought back by Tang Jiayao. However, this time, Tang Jiayao did not represent herself. Instead, she represented the Fire God Shrine of the Primordial Gods. Her stance was especially important because on the surface, her potential was even more terrifying than Ye Qinghan's. She possessed the Primordial Fire God Shrine's divinity.
Xuanyuan Xuan Shen was the first to visit Tang Jiayao, hoping to get her support. However, Tang Jiayao didn't represent herself. She couldn't choose to support Xuanyuan Zhe Cang just because of her personal relationship with Xuanyuan Qingyun. She had to make a decision based on what would happen later.
Ye Qinghan was the furthest away from the Imperial Capital. He arrived late with North Vanquishing Prince and Yan Ao. As soon as they landed outside the Imperial Capital, several princes and uncles came to greet them, including Xuanyuan Zhe Cang and Xuanyuan Shen.
Tang Jiayao rushed out fiercely. The fire elements around her were strong enough to burn an Immortal Earth Immortal to death. Even Heavenly Immortal experts didn't dare to come close.
Ye Qinghan shrugged, looked at the furious Tang Jiayao and said, "As the inheritor of the Tang Clan's Primordial God Shrine, don't embarrass the Primordial God Bloodline here. Let's settle this in private. What do you think?"
"Where's that bastard bird of yours?" Tang Jiayao asked angrily.
Ye Qinghan smiled bitterly. It seemed like Tang Jiayao was driven mad by Sovereign Ye. In order to appease Tang Jiayao, he said helplessly, "He didn't come with me this time. If you're angry, I'll bring you to the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture after we meet the Celestial Emperor. I'll let him apologize to you."
"I don't need your apology, and I won't accept it! After we meet the Celestial Emperor, I'll fight you to the death! "Tang Jiayao shouted angrily.
Ye Qinghan smiled faintly and didn't say anything else.
The other Imperial Uncles came forward to mediate, hoping to resolve the grudge between the two. However, Tang Jiayao didn't give them any face and left with a wave of her sleeves.
"Lord Heaven Suppressing Marquis, you're finally here. Last time, you didn't go with Qingyun to visit her mother. She's still a little angry. This time, you must go with her." Xuanyuan God walked up with a smile, acting like an elder. Obviously, he hoped that the other Imperial Uncles wouldn't have any ideas about Ye Qinghan.
Ye Qinghan smiled and thought, I'm afraid you all won't want to see me after this meeting with the Celestial Emperor.
However, he still had to give them some face. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Imperial Uncle. I'll definitely visit when I have the time."
Many Imperial Uncles thought that the First Prince had given up the position of Crown Prince and came forward to rope him in. In any case, the First Prince was a border King, equivalent to a Marquis. He had a high position and had five million Xuanyuan Army. His status was extraordinary. Most importantly, he was a member of the Imperial Family and was trustworthy.
North Vanquishing Prince had the aura of a military king. He was vigorous and powerful. Even Xuanyuan Zhe Cang seemed a little immature in front of him. He was mature and steady. He didn't offend the Imperial Uncles and Marquis. He didn't say that he wanted to fight for the position of Crown Prince, nor did he say that he wanted to support a prince. He was only waiting for Ye Qinghan to take the initiative.
This was the typical mentality of an Emperor. If Ye Qinghan didn't appear, he might endure silently. However, when Ye Qinghan appeared, his Emperor's momentum was formed.
… …
When Ye Qinghan entered the imperial capital, he separated from North Vanquishing Prince and entered an inn with Yan Ao. After washing up, they chose a private room to rest. However, how could the Imperial Uncles and Marquis let them rest?
Ye Qinghan's attitude was equivalent to representing Yan Ao. Everyone wanted to win over Ye Qinghan's support.
No one knew what Ling Yang was thinking. She had a neutral attitude before, but she was the first to find Ye Qinghan.
"Heaven Suppressing Marquis, Flame King, do you have anyone to support?" Ling Yang entered the private room and asked bluntly.
Ye Qinghan looked at Ling Yang. He didn't need to give face to others, but he still needed to give face to her. After all, he owed her such a big favor.
"Greetings, Marquis Ling Yang. Aren't you neutral? Why do you care about this? "Ye Qinghan asked curiously.
"You and I are from the same sect. We were both promoted by the Lord Immortal Emperor. I don't want you to stand on the wrong side, so I came to remind you," Ling Yang said calmly.
Ye Qinghan let out a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Ling Yang had already found someone to support.
"Marquis, do you have anyone to support?" Ye Qinghan asked curiously.
Ling Yang shook her head and said calmly, "I am a regional official with a high position and authority. My every word and action represents the orthodoxy of the Celestial Nation. So, since the Lord Immortal Emperor hasn't said anything, I won't do anything."
Ye Qinghan looked at Ling Yang's serious expression and knew that she was truly loyal to the Lord Immortal Emperor. At this time, there really wasn't any prince who could gain her support. Ye Qinghan thought of a plan, hoping to rope Ling Yang in to support the North Vanquishing King.
Whoosh!
Ye Qinghan took out the data he'd collected from the North Vanquishing King, then stood up and bowed. He respectfully said, "Marquis, this junior doesn't want to lie to you. A few days ago, I went to the North Vanquishing King to investigate. Some of the North Vanquishing King's policies were an eye-opener for this junior. The North Vanquishing King is a benevolent and righteous ruler. Although we are loyal to the Lord Immortal Emperor, shouldn't we share the Lord Immortal Emperor's burdens with his salary? I feel that we shouldn't be neutral. Instead, we should recommend a wise ruler that the Lord Immortal Emperor can rest assured of! "
Ling Yang was stunned by Ye Qinghan's words. She felt that it made sense, so she opened the records Ye Qinghan gave her. Over the years, many people had been praising the North Vanquishing King's way of governing, but no one took it to heart. However, Ye Qinghan's personal records made Ling Yang's eyes light up. Many policies were worth promoting!
"Interesting. This Marquis has been thinking about how to cultivate and how to be loyal to the Lord. I didn't expect that neglecting the policies of the fief could be so effective." Ling Yang sighed.
Ye Qinghan immediately bowed and said, "I know that the Marquis is loyal to the Lord Immortal Emperor. Everyone in the world knows this, and the Lord Immortal Emperor knows this as well. If you were only helping the Lord Immortal Emperor guard the borders, I dare say that many people would be able to do the same. However, recommending a wise ruler to the Lord Immortal Emperor would save him a lot of trouble."
Ling Yang carefully read Ye Qinghan's records. After a long time, she nodded and said, "This Marquis understands. Take your time to rest. I'm leaving."
