Chapter 362 Imperial Power and Prime Ministerial Power
It took the Wang family more than a month to check from beginning to end.
Including the clan member discovered by Wang Nannan, two more clan members were confirmed as secret guards.
Fortunately, these clan members have lived in Shenhui Continent since childhood, and they are considered to be peripheral clan members of the Wang family. They are unaware of the existence of the Nether Sea Immortal Cultivation World, so the royal family did not discover the secret of the Wang family.
Wang Nannan and Wang Nannanjuan, who were frightened and sweating, also breathed a sigh of relief.
"These three people must not get into trouble." Wang Nanjuan spoke first. They cannot offend the imperial power, that is the way to death.
Wang Nannan also deeply agreed with this. The Wang family is only an earl family. Not to mention the royal family, even the marquis cannot fight against it.
At the same time, in order to prevent other clan members of the family from continuing to become secret guards of the royal family, Wang Nannan decided to regularly check the human luck of the clan members every once in a while.
"The only problem now is what to do with the first member of the Dark Guard we caught? Even if the Reincarnation Tree breaks his restrictions, the Dark Guard will definitely find out. As for the two members behind, we just monitor them and transfer them to unimportant positions. The Dark Guard will be suspicious, but they can't confirm it!" Wang Nanjuan was a little worried. The Dark Guard must be handled with caution, otherwise it will bring disaster.
Wang Nannan naturally knew the priorities, but in order to protect the Wang family, he gritted his teeth and said: "Since he was the first to betray the family, let him die in an accident. Even if it is his reward to the family, wait until he turns into a ghost cultivator and deal with it again."
"However, the accidental death must be concealed. The top leaders of the Dark Guard should have experienced these small fights countless times, and it is easy to be discovered. Let Brother Nanjun deal with this matter personally."
A few days later, the death of the Wang family's Dark Guard did arouse suspicion, but without evidence, they could only stare blankly.
The Shenhui Wang family resumed its busyness as usual, and a large amount of resources were allocated and sent to various cities in the Dakang Dynasty.
Ten years later, Wang Nannan counted the total amount of resources and found some abnormalities. He hurriedly called his Yuanying Zhenjun clan members and asked: "Why has the number of resources allocated been so much less recently? What happened?"
The Yuanying Zhenjun clan members hurriedly explained, "It was the order of the ancestor Nanjuan. A large number of shops have been closed recently. I don't know why?"
Hearing this. Wang Nannan was naturally puzzled, and hurriedly got up and found Wang Nanjuan, saying, "Sister Juaner, what's the situation?"
Wang Nannan asked anxiously, "There are so many people in the clan to support, and closing a large number of shops is not a solution."
Wang Nanjuan glanced at Wang Nannan, her face full of worry, and explained: "The prime minister of the Dakang Dynasty has a tendency to break through the Mahayana period."
"Oh, isn't this a good thing? The national strength has increased again." Wang Nannan answered without thinking too much.
Wang Nanjuan patted her forehead and continued, "Whether it is a mortal kingdom or an immortal dynasty, the imperial power and the prime minister's power are originally enemies. The prime minister has become stronger. Do you think Emperor Dakang can be at ease?"
"The two of them are fighting?" Wang Nannan guessed.
Wang Nanjuan nodded slightly, confirming Wang Nannan's thoughts.
The emperor wants to depose the prime minister's power, and now the court is in chaos.
And Emperor Dakang is a bit ruthless. In addition to the prime minister's power, a series of forces, officials, and families related to the prime minister should be cleared out by him.
Wang Nannan sat beside him indifferently and said, "We belong to the lineage of King Wu and have nothing to do with the prime minister. What are you afraid of? Why close so many shops? We have to support a family?"
Wang Nanjuan was a little dissatisfied and retorted, "Do you think I think that the prime minister knows that he can't beat the emperor and wants to drag more people into the water. I don't want the Wang family to be involved, so I closed the shops and withdrew the clansmen to let them cause less trouble and reduce the presence of the Wang family to the minimum. Not only our Wang family, but also the families with a little self-knowledge are keeping a low profile, even the Wu Wang Mansion is the same. The current prime minister is biting everywhere like a mad dog. The prime minister's followers have been almost deleted by His Majesty. Do you want the Wang family to show up at this time?"
Wang Nannan's relationship with Lushun, now that things have reached a critical juncture, the Wang family really needs to keep a low profile, keep a low profile again, at least wait until the war between imperial power and prime minister power is completely over.
Fortunately, the Wang family's fiefdom is far away from the imperial capital. As long as they don't commit suicide, few people will notice them. This also gave the Wang family a better chance to save their lives.
"What stage has the struggle reached now?" Wang Nannan asked curiously. Wang Nanjuan was responsible for external affairs, so she had a clearer understanding of these things.
The emperor is a Mahayana cultivator, and he will win this battle! This is also a manifestation of the law of the jungle in the world of immortal cultivation.
Even if he knew that he would fall, he still had to fight with the emperor. This made Wang Nannan quite admired, but it was a pity that everything was nothing in front of strength.
Wang Nanjuan drank a sip of tea and replied, "The prime minister's thunder tribulation cannot be passed, or it can't be said that your majesty will let him pass, so the prime minister will definitely die, and there is no way to save the situation; if he dares to rebel, he will be forcibly suppressed."
Wang Nannan smacked his lips. The struggle in the immortal cultivation dynasty was simpler and clearer.
Strength determines everything. It is convenient for everyone to stand in line.
"Then how many stores are still open now? It can't be like this forever?" Wang Nannan was a little worried. As the saying goes, the family has a large population. There are many mouths that need to eat, and the store cannot be stagnant for a long time.
Wang Nanjuan was not sure about this. Although the struggle between imperial power and prime ministerial power was clear, no one could do anything to the prime minister unless the emperor took action. They could only wait quietly.
Even several dukes were like this, not to mention the earl family like Wang Jia.
Several dukes in the capital of the Dakang Dynasty gathered in the Wuwang Mansion, each worried.
Now that the prime minister's power has been dismissed, what about them? They all became worried.
His Majesty is the founding emperor, and he is cruel at heart. Needless to say, these dukes are worried about their future.
On the contrary, the Wuwang, as the host, is quite confident in the emperor. In his opinion, getting rid of the prime minister is just the emperor's way of strengthening his own power, and he will not touch these dukes with outstanding merits. As long as they don't commit suicide, it won't be a big problem to spend their old age in peace on the basis that they can't threaten the imperial power.
After all, the emperor is still in his prime. Unlike ordinary emperors who can only live for a hundred years, none of them can survive the lifespan of the Dakang Emperor. This is the safest factor. As long as the Dakang Emperor does not die, no one dares to rebel.
"Don't worry." The Wuwang waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and it was also a proof for the emperor.
At the same time, in a corner of the Wuwang Mansion. A monk with a secret guard token hanging on his waist was in a corner, constantly recording the conversations of several dukes, even every punctuation mark and expression was recorded clearly, and soon everything in the Wu Wang Mansion was passed to the emperor.
How the emperor viewed this matter was not mentioned for the time being, and after the Wu Wang sent away several dukes, the butler of the Wu Wang Mansion slowly walked up and said to the Wu Wang: "The secret guard has left, and all the contents of the conversation should now appear in front of the emperor."
