Chapter 228 Borderlands, Chance
capital
As soon as His Majesty the Xiliang Empire's edict was issued, the entire capital, or rather the entire Xiliang Empire, was shaken.
Although it had been determined before that the prince would be chosen, the time had not been determined, which made the princes who were not yet adults think they still had a chance.
But overnight, the edict for the battle for the crown prince was issued, which meant that only nine princes could participate in the battle.
The position of prince can only be produced among these nine.
This made those forces that had not yet determined which prince to assist suddenly become a little anxious.
They must choose a prince now so that they can share some resources in the future.
After all, their sect is within the Xiliang Empire, so there are not many opportunities to obtain resources. After all, no one knows when the current Xiliang Emperor will abdicate or pass away.
In some inns and restaurants, the battle for the crown prince was being discussed.
"Your Majesty has started the battle for the crown prince in advance. Ten days later, it will be held in the cemetery space. This news is too sudden."
A warrior said.
"It is possible that His Majesty is preparing to practice in seclusion and needs someone to supervise the country. It is normal to start the battle for the crown prince in advance, determine the candidate for the prince, and help His Majesty supervise the country. However, I don't know how many masters have fallen in this battle."
Some warriors spoke.
The battle for the crown prince of the Xiliang Empire was actually not only a battle between princes, but also a battle between major forces.
In order to obtain some resources in the Xiliang Empire, the major forces will send experts to assist their selected princes and help them ascend to the position of prince.
Once the crown prince's position is confirmed, they will obtain the promises given by the previous princes.
But once they compete, all major forces will inevitably suffer casualties.
This is also an opportunity for the Xiliang Empire to use the position of the prince to weaken the major forces.
The major forces also know it, but for the development of the sect, they will participate. What's more, warriors are never afraid of fighting. It is an honor for warriors to die in battle.
Of course, the Xiliang Empire also paid a price. After all, once the battle begins, only one prince can win, and the other princes may fall in the battle.
This is playing with the major forces with his own son.
The royal family of the Xiliang Empire has always been a ruthless character.
At this time, there were two figures on the street.
The leader was an old man with silver eyebrows and white beard, a kind face, a slender figure, and a long sword on his back. His aura was calm, just like an ordinary old man.
The other one was a young man wearing a silver robe, exuding a surging aura, and streaks of thunder and lightning burst out from his eyes from time to time.
"The elder of the Hunyuan Qi Sect, Shen Jianyun, and behind him is the first eldest son of the Hunyuan Qi Sect, Lei Kuang. They have come to the capital. Could it be that they are participating in the battle for the crown prince."
Seeing these two figures, the people in the inn exclaimed
The status of these two people in Hunyuan Yiqi Sect is no less than that of the deceased Fang Hua.
The elders of the Hunyuan Yiqi Sect have a status second only to the sect leader. Currently, there are only two elders in the Hunyuan Yiqi Sect, and Shen Jianyun is one of them.
The leader of the Hunyuan Yiqi Sect must be selected from among the eldest sons, and Lei Kuang is the first eldest son and the candidate destined for the next sect leader.
It can be seen that the status of these two people is higher than that of the deputy sect leader.
"That's not necessarily true. It's possible that he came to seek revenge from the Money Gang. The deputy leader of Hunyuan Yiqi Sect Fang was killed by people from the Money Gang. Could it be that the Hunyuan Yiqi Sect would let the Money Gang go? It's impossible. After all, it's Hunyuan Yiqi.
The sect is a big sect in the Xiliang Empire."
Some martial arts warriors spoke out.
While they were talking, they looked at the two figures to see if they would stop outside the Money Gang's tower and fight with the Money Gang.
When Shen Jianyun and Lei Kuang arrived in front of the Money Gang Tower, they stopped, glanced at the Money Gang Tower, and then left.
Didn't stay too long.
They originally came to the capital to have a fight with the Money Gang, to retrieve Fang Hua's body from the Money Gang, and to resolve the conflict between them.
But on the way, the sect received a message that the battle for the crown prince would begin, asking them to enter the eldest prince's mansion first and wait until the battle for the crown prince was over before settling the money gang's affairs.
Seeing that Shen Jianyun and Lei Kuang did not take action, the warriors who were prepared to watch the excitement were suddenly disappointed.
at this time
At the top of the Money Gang tower, looking at the backs of the two people leaving, he said in a deep voice:
"Why did His Majesty the Emperor of the Xiliang Empire suddenly issue an edict to start a battle for the crown prince? Can you find out something?"
Su Hao asked quietly to Xiaoyao Hou beside him.
Xiaoyao Hou has taken over the secret building and is responsible for the secret intelligence of the Money Gang.
"Young Master, this thing happened suddenly. The eunuch beside Emperor Xiliang who issued the edict to the nine princes, so it is difficult to find out the purpose of Emperor Xiliang."
Xiaoyao Hou shook his head and said.
This matter was planned by Emperor Xiliang, and it is difficult to know his purpose.
"Then what is the cemetery space?"
"My subordinates have asked the fifth prince that this cemetery space is a secret place controlled by the Liang royal family. Very few people enter, so the princes do not know what is inside?"
"Um!"
When Su Hao heard what Xiaoyao Hou said, he frowned. He always felt that something was wrong.
His Majesty the Emperor of the Xiliang Empire started a battle for the crown prince, which temporarily put the feud between the Money Gang and the three major forces on hold, and seemed to have helped the Money Gang.
For example, the Hunyuan Yi Qi Sect, the two people who stayed under the Qian Gang tower should have come to find trouble with the Qian Gang, but they appeared because of the battle for the crown prince.
The people of Hunyuan Yiqi Sect did not take action against him.
But Su Hao knew that Emperor Xiliang would not help the Money Gang, so he must be planning something.
Just when Su Hao was meditating, the sound of system tasks appeared.
[Task]: Ask the host to enter the cemetery space and obtain the path out of the borderland. The reward sign-in value is: 500 million, 5 gold lottery cards, and 1 diamond lottery card.
"What?"
Su Hao watched the system release the mission, his head was a little confused. He didn't expect that the place he was in was actually a borderland, and there was a way to leave the borderland in the cemetery space.
"It seems that this cemetery space is really not simple. I am afraid that Emperor Xiliang is really planning something. It seems that we need to be careful."
Su Hao calmed down and then gave instructions to Xiaoyao Hou
"You continue to pay attention to the situation in the capital, pay attention to the princes who are entering the battle for the crown prince, and the forces behind them."
They didn't understand the cemetery space, but there must be forces that knew about it, so he wanted to see the situation of other forces participating in the battle for the crown prince this time.
"My subordinate understands."
Xiaoyao Hou replied softly.
at this time
In the palace.
"Has any prince withdrawn from the battle for the crown prince?"
The Emperor of Xiliang sat on the dragon chair and asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, the fourth prince and the third prince have decided not to participate in the battle for the crown prince's position. The other seven princes have received the edict and will participate in the battle for the crown prince on time."
Eunuch Chen behind him said softly.
"Trash, you don't even dare to participate in the battle. There will be a rare opportunity in the cemetery space in ten days. If they are selected by the people over there and taken away from this borderland, it will be their blessing. Since they are greedy,
If you are afraid of death, you should give up this opportunity, and there is no need to stay in the capital. According to my decree, let the third and fourth elders go to Lingnan to retire!"
When the Emperor of Xiliang heard that a prince had withdrawn from the battle for the crown prince, his face turned cold and he said in a cold voice.
This world respects martial arts. Fear of death is a sign of weakness. The royal family does not need weak people.
What's more, there may be an opportunity in the cemetery space ten days from now.
