Yu Zhenghuang sat cross-legged in the central Wishing Power Temple. He looked at the wishing power dragon in the wishing power pool in front of him and frowned again and again, but after careful inspection, he found nothing unusual.
"It's really weird. Could it be that I've been so nervous lately?
Who has the ability to manipulate the will?"
Yu Zhenghuang finally threw away the strange emotion in his heart.
Seeing that the four dragon veins in the east, west, south and north were still conveying wish power, Yu Zhenghuang nodded slightly, very satisfied with the performance of the four princes.
As long as today passes and tomorrow morning, the little dragon of wish power will transform into the true dragon of wish power. At that time, Yu Zhenghuang will take the true dragon of wish power as soon as possible, and then enter the forbidden area to retreat for a day, waiting for him to complete the three wishes.
He can absorb the power of Lizhenlong and not be afraid of the leaders of the four major sects joining forces.
Yu Zhenghuang was meditating in the central temple. He didn't know that the Sixth Prince and the Seventh Prince had returned.
The Sixth Prince and the Seventh Prince are back, not as an escape, but in triumph. The west and south have been pacified.
The Sixth Prince still had many fans in the court. As for the Seventh Prince, he had very few supporters. There were only his teacher Dai Zhong and a few officials whom Dai Zhong tried his best to win over.
Seeing that the Sixth Prince was back, hundreds of officials who supported the Sixth Prince and heads of major families came to inquire about the situation.
When they heard that the Sixth Prince had returned in triumph, they were all overjoyed and felt that they had done the right thing by following the Sixth Prince.
But soon, they were shocked, because the Sixth Prince announced in public that he had given up the competition for the crown prince's position and now fully supported the Seventh Prince.
Those officials who supported the Sixth Prince were dumbfounded, but they were not stupid. Since the Sixth Prince supported the Seventh Prince, it meant that the Seventh Prince was not simple in strength. After being shocked, these officials expressed their stance that they would follow the Sixth Prince and support the Seventh Prince.
This incident quickly spread among the upper circles of Baiyu City.
Those officials and some families who supported the second and third princes began to stir up trouble. Now the seventh prince is in the limelight and has overshadowed the second and third princes.
The Seventh Prince has pacified the west and the south, but the Second Prince and the Third Prince are still struggling to support the north and south.
At this time, Dai Zhong began to use his sharp tongue, lobbying everywhere, making those who supported the second and third princes panic.
Many people began to defect and went to the seventh prince's house to show their loyalty.
This matter became more and more intense. In just a few hours, half of the officials in the court began to support the Seventh Prince.
Even many concubines in the harem were originally on the side of the Queen and Concubine Shu, but after hearing the rumors outside, these concubines began to run to Concubine Zhuang to please Concubine Zhuang.
This made the Queen and Concubine Shu unable to sit still. They felt that something was wrong and hurriedly gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
"Queen, what should I do?
I didn’t expect that the Seventh Prince was so capable. He had even won over the Sixth Prince, and had already pacified the western and southern parts. Now half of the ministers in the court have supported the Seventh Prince. I’m afraid if this continues, he will not be the crown prince.
No one else."
Concubine Shu said anxiously.
"Those ministers are just outsiders. The Seventh Prince usually doesn't show his face, but he didn't expect to hide it so deeply. The Sixth Prince supports him now, and he is in the limelight now. Even if our son protects the Temple of Wisdom, I'm afraid he won't be able to do anything.
It's not as good as him, unless..." The queen said halfway, but did not continue, but looked at Concubine Shu, her eyes solemn and deep.
Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, and then she understood what the queen meant.
"The queen means that we cooperate?"
Concubine Shu's face was a little complicated.
"There is no other way now. If we don't cooperate, our son will definitely not be the opponent of the current Seventh Prince."
the queen said.
"Then let's work together. Who will be the crown prince in the end?"
Concubine Shu said.
"Since I came up with this idea, I will let Xuan Chen support Meng Yi when the time comes."
the queen said.
Concubine Shu thought she had heard wrong. The queen was actually willing to let her son give up the position of prince and chose to support her own son?
"Queen, have you discussed this matter with the Second Prince?"
Concubine Shu said.
"He will agree. That's it."
The queen said solemnly.
Although Concubine Shu felt a little strange, she would naturally not refuse such a good thing.
"Queen, I'll take my leave now. I'll contact Mengyi immediately when I get back and explain the situation to him."
Concubine Shu said.
"good."
The queen nodded. After sending Concubine Shu away, a sneer appeared on the queen's face.
The queen came to the secret room, took out a mirror fairy treasure, and used the magical power of the round mirror.
"Mother, what do you want from me?"
Yu Xuanchen appeared in the mirror.
The queen explained the situation. After listening, Yu Xuanchen's face was extremely solemn and unbelievable.
"How can Lao Qi be so powerful?"
Yu Xuanchen found it difficult to accept.
"Xuanchen, the seventh prince is very scheming. This time I want you to support the third prince and help him fight for the crown prince's position."
the queen said.
"Mother, how is this possible?"
Yu Xuanchen couldn't accept it for a while.
The queen smiled lightly and said, "Listen to me, now the Seventh Prince is unstoppable. If you compete with the Seventh Prince for the position of crown prince, your chances of winning are slim. This time we support the Third Prince and let the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince fight for victory.
We will have our heads broken and bleeding, and we will act accordingly when the time comes. This is called sitting on a mountain and watching a tiger fight. The one who laughs in the end will definitely be us."
Yu Xuanchen is also a smart man. He knows that with the current momentum of the Seventh Prince, if he continues to fight hard, he really has no chance of winning. It is better to let the third child take the lead.
