Chapter 1316: Fighting Openly and Secretly (14)
Sometimes, the murderous intent hidden in words may be more frightening than actually taking action.
The conversation between the Ninth Prince, the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince made everyone present feel terrified.
At the same time, I also understand better that there seems to be no reconciliation between these three people.
Even if the Ninth Prince succeeded in becoming the Crown Prince.
After all, if the Ninth Prince is really allowed to gain power, how can the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince who did such a thing be kind?
They will be the first to be dealt with when the time comes.
"Okay, the two royal brothers are standing here so that we don't dare to sit down, so why don't we go and sit down first?" The Ninth Prince smiled and pointed at the ministers and geniuses who all stood up.
The Third Prince and the Fifth Prince nodded and followed the Ninth Prince to sit two steps higher than the other seats.
When they sat on it, they saw Mu Fusheng and others in the first place.
"It seems that these are the talented students of Hungling Academy." The third prince said with a smile: "I have heard from Lao Jiu about your talents a long time ago. Maybe we can also cooperate in depth by then."
Ye Qiubai cupped his hands and said, "Then we have to see His Highness's sincerity."
The Ninth Prince smiled slightly, not at all angry that the Third Prince was poaching in front of him.
After all, they were on opposite sides, and Ye Qiubai and the others didn't look like fools, so naturally they wouldn't do anything to offend both parties.
The fifth prince also smiled and said: "Isn't there going to be a fun part later? I hope to see the strength of several of them then."
"Okay, let's continue the chat between the two royal brothers later. It's time for the next step, otherwise it will take too long." The Ninth Prince waved slightly.
The guards on the side also nodded when they saw this, and immediately shouted loudly: "Gifts from all officials!"
Suddenly, a maid came out with different treasures in her hands and came to the middle of the banquet.
When offering the gift, the name of the person offering the gift will also be read.
"Prince Ming presents a fire bead from the palm of the God of Heaven!"
"The Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs presents a Kirin Tianshou flower!"
…
Although the process seems a bit boring.
But this is a necessary part of surrender.
The Ninth Prince was smiling, while the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince on the side still had decent smiles on their faces. But the look in his eyes gradually darkened.
Prince Ming and the Minister of Civil Affairs are both important ministers in the court. Such important ministers usually do not take sides easily. Now that they suddenly stand in the ranks of the Ninth Prince, the Ninth Prince's reputation will be greatly improved!
You know, the Ninth Prince's greatest weakness is his background and reputation.
It seems that this trip to Qinglong City made countless ministers see the possibility of the Ninth Prince...
At this time, a maid was holding a mahogany plate. There was no cover on the top, and there was a bamboo section that revealed the aura of blue frost from top to bottom. Even if they didn't consciously feel it, everyone present could feel as if their whole bodies had been cleansed by ice.
Xuan Bing Ling Xi Bamboo.
A valuable treasure at the pinnacle level of the ancestral realm.
Whether it is for refining weapons or for cultivating ice-attribute cultivators, looking at the entire Tianji Continent, it is an existence that can cause chaos and bloodshed.
The next words of the personal guard on the side made all the ministers and geniuses present look condensed.
"Her Royal Highness the Second Princess has sent you a Xuanbing Lingxi Bamboo!"
Such a valuable treasure, and it was sent by the emperor's daughter.
You must know that although the second princess has no interest in imperial power, her talent and strength are so profound that if she wants to fight for the throne, even the ninth prince may not be able to fight for it.
The emperor also said that if the emperor wants his position, he can abdicate at any time.
This shows the special status of the Second Princess in the Nine Dragons Dynasty.
The third prince and the fifth prince also looked down. Although they knew that the second emperor sister seemed to take good care of Lao Jiu, they had never shown such support in public!
For a time, many ministers Tianjiao, who had not thought about taking sides, stood up and prepared temporary gifts...
Maple Leaf, who saw this scene, couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's a pity that I'm not an ice attribute practitioner, so this is too much."
Ye Qiubai suddenly thought of Mu Ziqing.
Before he could think about it, he was interrupted by Mu Fusheng on the side: "Elder brother, please don't take any chances with the Xuanbing Lingxi Bamboo. I beg you."
Ye Qiubai: "..."
After all, he hasn't yet established a firm foothold in Tianji Continent, and there is still a second leader of Hungling Academy who can kill a thousand swords and is eyeing him.
And then involving the royal family in such a complicated situation...
That Mu Fusheng went crazy...
The gift-giving session lasted for a full hour before it ended.
At this moment, the fifth prince suddenly smiled and said: "I'm afraid it's a bit boring to just drink wine. How about adding some people to help the fun?"
When everyone heard these words, they understood that the fifth prince and the third prince were about to take action.
Now that they are at the Ninth Prince's banquet, it is impossible for them to do nothing.
Otherwise, if this matter spreads, people will more or less think that the third prince and the fifth prince are at their wits end.
The Ninth Prince took a sip of wine and asked knowingly, "Oh? I wonder what Fifth Brother wants to do?"
"There are so many talented people here, why not come up and compare notes? It just so happens that there are also talented people from Hunling Academy. Let outsiders see the character of the younger generation of our Nine Dragons Divine Dynasty. It will be a good story."
Immediately, the Ninth Prince smiled, looked at Mu Fusheng and others below, and said with a smile, "What do you think?"
Ye Qiu, Bai Shi, Sheng Mu, Fu Sheng, and Fang Qiong did not respond.
Feng Ye and Xiao Hei were very active and nodded directly: "Okay."
Hmm... the reaction of these two battle maniacs was not unexpected.
Seeing this, a man holding two axes jumped up and stood in the center of the banquet, bowing and saying: "Lan Yao of the Seven Killings Divine Sect is willing to give it a try."
The Seven Killings Divine Sect is a sect in the Nine Dragons Divine Dynasty that is close to the Fifth Prince and has good strength.
And Lan Yao is a generation of genius of the Seven Killings Divine Sect, and now he has reached the half-step ancestor realm.
Everyone focused their attention on Feng Ye and others.
Feng Ye smiled and looked at Xiao Hei and said: "Will you go first or me?"
Seeing this, everyone was stunned.
Among the other party, Feng Ye is the only one who is in the half-step ancestor realm, and Xiao Hei is only in the middle stage of the Divine Emperor realm. Is it necessary to ask him whether he wants to go up?
If Xiao Hei is allowed to go on the field, wouldn't it be a one-sided situation?
Although it was just a competition, it also represented the face of each sect.
Xiao Hei originally wanted Feng Ye to go first.
But Lan Yao sneered and said, "This person's strength is not enough. Why don't you come up and compete with me?"
When Xiao Hei heard this, he opened his mouth and closed it again, then grinned and said, "In that case, I'll go first. It just so happens that I feel I have improved a lot in recent days."
