Yes, Uncle Nine Emperors' request was to trade Liancheng for Lan Jingyang's life.
Should one person be replaced in a city, or not?
Uncle Nine Emperors admitted that when he wrote that letter, he had a grudge mentality. He was dissatisfied, very dissatisfied with Liancheng and the people in the previous dynasty. He wanted to see if Liancheng and those in the previous dynasty could sacrifice for Lan Jingyang.
To what extent, how important is Lan Jingyang?
If that group of people agrees, he can give up on the former dynasty people. The so-called loyalty to him is just a cover, and he doesn't need to be soft on the Liancheng people. If he refuses...
Maybe there is still a possibility for him and Liancheng to cooperate, but he will no longer trust Liancheng. In the eyes of those old foxes in Liancheng, he and Lan Jingyang are just tools for them to gain higher power.
Founding heroes, these four words are enough to make them powerful and blessed for future generations.
As for that aunt? Although she doesn’t know her identity, Uncle Nine Emperors can be sure that she is a person who can make the decision. I wonder if this aunt will put the overall situation first, or will she take Lan Jingyang more seriously?
People in this city also wanted to know. After receiving the letter from Uncle Nine Emperors, they immediately passed the news to the eldest princess in Xuanyue Palace. They thought that the eldest princess would only tell them what to do in a letter, but they didn't expect that the eldest princess would just tell them what to do in a letter.
I drove all night and arrived in Liancheng in person.
"No matter what the cost, we must save Jingyang. He is the only bloodline of my Lan family." This was the first sentence of the eldest princess of the Lan family when she came in. There were several big shots who had a good impression of Uncle Nine Emperors.
, couldn't help but ask: "What about Uncle Nine Emperors?"
The eldest princess glared at the man fiercely: "His surname is Dongling." Even if he wins the world and changes his surname to Lan, so what, after all, he is not a direct descendant of the Lan family.
"But he is also a descendant of the royal family." The big brother was unwilling to accept it and argued again. The eldest princess glared and sneered: "What a descendant of the royal family? Have you ever seen any princess's son who can inherit the throne?"
Those who are optimistic about Uncle Nine Emperors dare not say anything more. No matter in the previous dynasty or now, all countries have extremely strict control over Fu Ma and will not give Fu Ma real power. The status of Fu Ma's son is even more embarrassing. You are not a descendant of the royal family.
, but he also has royal blood, so if he were to give them power, they might actually rebel.
The eldest princess nodded with satisfaction and continued: "Jingyang is the son of my imperial brother and the only direct bloodline of the Lan family. His position cannot be replaced by anyone. We must preserve the direct bloodline of the royal family at any cost."
Everyone was silent... Guarantee? What kind of guarantee? If the entire Liancheng was exchanged for him, what would they do in the future?
Did they ask Lan Jingyang to go against the Nine Emperors Uncles and cause trouble to the Nine Emperors Uncles? He wanted to commit suicide and was sent to the Nine Emperors Uncles to arrest him. If something happened, he had to ask them to save him. It was simply incompetent.
Lan Jingyang has been in trouble again and again, and there are more and more people in the city who are dissatisfied with him, but no one dares to show it. How come this princess doesn't know, but saving people is more important now, and she can't care about it.
"Lord Lian, you are leaving for Dongling tomorrow. Jingyang is the young master of Liancheng and asks Dongling to release him." The eldest princess took it as a matter of course, but she didn't know who was in charge of Dongling now.
"Princess, Dongling will not let anyone go." City Lord Lian lowered his eyes to hide the fatigue in his eyes.
He watched Uncle Nine Emperors grow up and knew very well what Uncle Nine Emperors was like. Uncle Nine Emperors looked cold but was actually very affectionate. If Lan Jingyang had not been involved, Uncle Nine Emperors would have treated old people like them preferentially throughout his life, even if they committed crimes.
Even if he made some mistakes, Uncle Nine Emperors wouldn't care about them, but now...
It's okay that they want to give up on Lan Jingyang, but if they want to embarrass Uncle Nine Emperors for this, it will only accelerate Uncle Nine Emperors' severing of the relationship between them and accelerate Uncle Nine Emperors' determination to kill Lan Jingyang.
"Send troops if you don't let them go. Isn't Chu City ready to attack? Let's wait until Dongling attacks Ye City, then join forces with Chu City and Tai City to send troops to attack Dongling." The eldest princess did not hesitate at all and did not attack Chu City's tens of thousands of troops.
His life is in his eyes.
"Princess, whether it is financial resources or military strength, Dongling is several times greater than ours. We have no chance of winning." Liancheng's general stood up with a look of disapproval: "Princess, Uncle Nine Emperors has no idea about Liancheng's military strength and deployment.
We know very well that if we really fight, we will lose, even if we unite Chu City and Tai City."
"How could it be that it's our three cities? The other six cities will naturally send troops. If the nine cities are damaged, all will be damaged. The other cities will not sit idly by and ignore us. If we are destroyed, they will be next. We just need to obey them and send troops.
." The eldest princess took it as a matter of course. Everyone present understood to some extent what the eldest princess meant, but no one said a word.
They took the initiative to send troops to attack Dongling. Uncle Nine Emperors could find an excuse to destroy Liancheng. It was almost impossible to subdue the other cities. After all, it was Liancheng who initiated the war.
The relationship between the nine cities is not as close as the outside world thinks. We are just a community of interests. If Liancheng is destroyed, the other six cities can also form a group. I am afraid these people will laugh: Who makes Liancheng ambitious and seeking death against Shangdong?
Mausoleum.
"Princess, why don't you let me go and talk to you? Maybe Uncle Nine Emperors is willing to give me some face because of our past friendship." City Lord Lian didn't want to fight with Uncle Nine Emperors, so he could only take this step.
Drudgery.
The eldest princess is not a stupid person. She doesn’t really want to fight, she just wants to take the opportunity to force Liancheng to make concessions. Now that her goal is achieved, the eldest son secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "In this case, Master Lian will be troubled. As long as Dongling Jiu's conditions are not
It's too harsh, we can all agree, but the premise is that Jingyang must come back intact."
"Old minister, I understand." City Lord Lian agreed, but he was filled with sadness: Will he be able to see the former dynasty recover in his lifetime?
That night, City Lord Lian took Lan Jingyang's aunt's instructions and went to Dongling with his guards. Of course, the credentials arrived first, explaining Lan Jingyang's identity and escalating the matter to a conflict between one country and one city.
diplomatic.
Lan Jingyang suddenly transformed and became the heir of Liancheng. Shuntian Mansion could not lock him up with a group of prisoners, but gave him a separate room, and his food treatment was also much better.
"Fortunately, I didn't kill Lan Jingyang, otherwise it would have been really troublesome." Jiucheng is in the same spirit as Lianzhi. If the other city lords know that Dongling killed Liancheng's heir, the other city lords will inevitably not be in danger.
Then unite as one.
"It's okay. If he dies, he won't be Young Master Liancheng. There will be another solution to the matter." Uncle Nine Emperors was disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Liancheng's move was expected by him, but he would not let everything be done according to Liancheng's wishes.
Uncle Jiuhuang smiled mockingly and said calmly: "Feng Jin's illness has stabilized. The rest is just a matter of recuperation. After tidying up, we will leave for the Sky Castle in two days."
If they don't go to the Sky Castle, they will miss the martial arts competition, miss the opportunity to enter the Sky Castle, and miss the opportunity to find the map of Kyushu.
"Aren't you waiting for Lian City Lord?" Feng Qingchen thought that the time of Tianqiong Castle's trip would be changed. After all, they had put Ling Tian under house arrest and did not communicate well with Tianqiong Castle. If they came so carelessly, it would not be a slap in Tianqiong's face.
"Lian City Lord? Who is he? He is worthy of my waiting." Uncle Nine Emperors looked disdainful: "If he doesn't want to talk, just get out. If he wants to talk, just sit in Dongling and wait for me to come back."
Now Liancheng can't wait, and Lan Jingyang is suffering. He has plenty of time to waste with them. Liancheng must pay a sufficient price if he wants to save Lan Jingyang.
The value of a direct descendant of the Lan family cannot be lowered, lest his status be dishonored...
