Xu Mochen frowned slightly, something was a bit strange here.
When he went out to look for the exotic fairy mountain, Shen Changfeng thought it was the best time to kill him. This matter should not be hidden from Prince Ning.
It stands to reason that the best time for Prince Ning to choose to act is when he leaves.
Could it be that Prince Ning thought that Shen Changfeng was not absolutely sure of success, so he held back a hand?
But if he wins and Shen Changfeng fails, Prince Ning will be even more helpless.
Thinking about it, he turned to ask Shen Zhining: "Is the transaction between Shen Changfeng and Prince Ning clear?"
Shen Zhining shook her head: "You can ask senior brother."
Xu Mochen nodded, she took out a whistle and blew it, but she didn't hear any sound. She saw a figure falling in the courtyard, it was Zhao Yuheng.
"Junior sister, the master is here too," Zhao Yuheng held his hand, "I don't know why you summoned me so urgently."
Xu Mochen brought up the issue again, and Zhao Yuheng thought: "The transaction with Prince Ning started many years ago.
At that time, King Ning failed to seize the throne and was demoted to vassal king.
After the unification of Daqian, when His Majesty transferred him to Ningzhou, I was the one who supported him.
But I don’t know the specific agreement between them.
However, you need to be aware that the nature of these two people means that even if they cooperate, they will only use each other."
A flash of lightning lit up in the sky outside, and rumbles of thunder rolled in.
Xu Mochen stood up: "You reminded me, yes, why didn't you think of it?
The two of them just use each other to cooperate.
Prince Ning is not an idiot, he did not place all his bets on Shen Changfeng."
Thunder sounded again.
Tang Derun narrowed his eyes: "Your Majesty, what do you mean..."
"There are other backers behind Prince Ning," Xu Mochen punched the table. "He hasn't taken any action because his real backers haven't arrived yet!"
A sharp whistle sounded outside, which was the contact information of the Embroidery Envoy.
Tang Derun immediately rushed out, and several embroiderers rushed over quickly, meeting and chatting together.
Xu Mochen's heart sank, something happened!
Sure enough, Tang Derun had a cautious expression when he came back: "Your Majesty, we received urgent news that Prince Ning has rebelled.
Now we are heading towards the prefect's mansion with our troops, including the musketeers."
"Musketeers," Xu Mochen raised his eyebrows, "I remember Daqian's musketeers, only the capital has them."
When he traveled back in time, during the process of unifying the world, he introduced the use of some gunpowder and established a musketry team.
Now that I think about it, there is a group of immortal cultivators behind me who are good at immortality, and the results will be the same whether I do it or not.
It's just that Prince Ning was demoted as a vassal king, so how could he form a musketeer team?
"Weichen didn't explain clearly," Tang Derun swallowed, "They are the musketeers of Pulan Kingdom."
"Pah!" Xu Mochen slapped his palm on the table, "The real backer behind Prince Ning is Pulan Kingdom!
Xu Chenghao, you are a traitor to the enemy and the country. You can even betray the interests of the great officials in China for the sake of the throne. You are really crazy."
The other people also looked at each other.
"Your Majesty," Tang Derun continued to report, "Ning Wang's private troops in Ningzhou are considered by the ministers to be just a cover-up. Their purpose of launching at the same time is to contain the imperial troops.
Mr. Wang is already setting up defenses, so..."
"Prince Ning's goal has always been me," Xu Mochen smiled, "If Shen Changfeng can get rid of me, of course he would be good, but looking at it now, he didn't think Shen Changfeng could succeed in the first place.
Therefore, his hidden stake in the Prefecture should have informed him of my return, and he was waiting for me to stay in the Prefecture and he would encircle me.
Tang Aiqing, the musketeers of Pulan Kingdom are probably immortal cultivators."
After saying this, everyone looked solemn.
Immortal cultivators from foreign countries want to enter Daqian's territory. Not to mention that the human emperor will not agree, and Daqian's immortal world will not agree either.
Originally this was a difficult matter, but unfortunately Shen Changfeng responded in the early stage, and now with Prince Ning acting as an internal response, they were able to come in.
There was a noise outside, it was obviously Prince Ning who had arrived.
"Let's go," Xu Mochen stood up and regained his composure, "We will know what Prince Ning and Pulan want after a while."
They had just experienced a battle with Shen Changfeng, and almost everyone was injured. If they meet the immortal cultivators from Pulan Kingdom again, they may not be able to match them.
It is too late to contact other immortal cultivating sects in Ningzhou or the Mo League now.
However, Xu Mochen clenched his fists, don’t think that I will be easily convinced!
He took the lead and walked forward, and when he came to the courtyard at the entrance, he saw a large group of people already surrounding him.
The leader, riding a black horse, was looking up to the sky and laughing.
Next to him, there was a man in a cloak, who seemed to be an immortal cultivator from Pulan Kingdom.
Seeing Xu Mochen coming out, the man on horseback jumped down: "The emperor's nephew has come to Ningzhou, and I have only just met him now. Please forgive me."
"Ning Wang Xu Chenghao," Xu Mochen took a step forward, "Shen Changfeng is just a chess piece in your hand, right."
"I dare not," Xu Chenghao waved his hand, "He is an immortal cultivator, how dare I use him.
It’s just that he is too ambitious and I am self-aware that we want to take different paths.”
Xu Mochen laughed after hearing this: "What a sentence of self-knowledge, let's hear it."
"Shen Changfeng wants to get rid of His Majesty," Xu Chenghao stared at him, "and support me to become the new emperor.
It's a pity that I didn't know about it when I took over the throne, but after His Majesty transferred me to Ningzhou, I learned about the existence of the immortal cultivator.
After returning to the capital and taking the position of Ninth Five-Year Plan, the people around him are just puppets of the cultivators.
Your Majesty, do you think so?"
Xu Mochen nodded: "Indeed, I only recently understood my situation."
"Such an emperor is inappropriate," Xu Chenghao sneered, "So from the beginning, I had no intention of following Shen Changfeng's wishes."
"So, you contact Pulan State as your backer." Xu Mochen concluded.
"If it doesn't work internally, then we can use external forces," Xu Chenghao admitted. "At least the immortal cultivators in Pulan Kingdom will not think of completely controlling me."
He doesn't want to be a puppet, but if it's mutual use and cooperation, he can accept it.
"I understand, what you want is relative freedom," Xu Mochen had to admit, maybe what he said was quite reasonable. If he hadn't touched the Immortal Fate System and entered the Immortal Way, he would really be worse off than dead now in the court. "So, the purpose of your coming today is not to kill me?"
"Why regicide?" Xu Chenghao seemed to have heard the most ridiculous remarks, "Your Majesty returns to the palace, be your own emperor, and deal with immortal cultivators. What does that have to do with me?"
Understand, this is Xu Chenghao’s starting point.
The reason why he thinks so is because he doesn't know yet that Xu Mochen has entered the immortal way and became the first emperor in history who can cultivate immortality.
He thought that Shen Changfeng failed because he was defeated by Xu Mochen's National Destiny Killer.
"So," Xu Mochen smiled, "you don't want to kill the king, but you want to force me?"
