Within the Longyan Kingdom, the princes and nobles were divided into several factions. Among them, two factions were far stronger than the other factions.
Behind Minister Fan Zi is one of the two powerful factions. However, the strength of the faction behind Fan Zi is still not as strong as the other one, which is the strongest aristocratic faction.
The Grand Duke of Fengmo who was summoned by King Ji Yuan before was the representative of the strongest faction. King Ji Yuan was also well aware of the conduct of these princes and nobles, and she did not expect that the strongest faction represented by the Grand Duke of Feng Mu would really support her.
When she entrusted herself with the title of national war god, she first communicated with the Grand Duke of Enemment. The main purpose was to make the faction represented by the Grand Duke of Enemment mentally prepared.
Although the faction behind Minister Fan Zi cannot compare with the strongest faction represented by the Grand Duke, its influence is still very great.
"That's right!" Minister Fan Zi nodded with a smile and said, "I and the power behind me can support His Majesty the King and General Jing Yan."
What Minister Fan Zi said can be supported, but there are obviously other meanings in his words.
"If Minister Fan Zi and the forces behind you support me, there should be conditions, right?" Jing Yan asked with a smile.
"Haha, General Jing Yan is a smart man, but it is not appropriate to describe it as conditional. I think it should be said that it is cooperation between the two parties." Minister Fan Zi laughed loudly.
Minister Fan Zi came to see Jing Yan this time, obviously he was quite confident that he could achieve his goal.
Because in his opinion, if General Jing Yan cannot get the support of him and the forces behind him, then it should be said that there is no hope for him to be granted the title of national war god. Although His Majesty the King will fully advocate the enactment of General Jing Yan as the national war god, but
In the country of Longyan, His Majesty the King does not have the final say. Matters such as entrusting the God of War need to be decided through the Parliament. The Parliament is controlled by several aristocratic factions.
Minister Fan Zi believed that General Jing Yan would agree to the conditions he was about to propose. In his words, General Jing Yan would cooperate with them.
In fact, Minister Fan Zi is not the representative of the second largest aristocratic faction in Longyan Kingdom. The representative of the first largest aristocratic faction is the Grand Duke of Fengmei, while the representative of the second largest faction is the Grand Duke of Party De. Minister Fan Zi
, is just an important member of the Grand Duke of Dangde, and can be said to be the right-hand man of the Grand Duke of Dangde.
"Cooperation? Minister Fan Zi, how do you want to cooperate?" Jing Yan asked again.
"It's very simple! For General Jing Yan, the responsibility that General Jing Yan needs to bear in the cooperation is very simple. We hope that after General Jing Yan becomes the national god of war, he can work with us to deal with the faction of the Grand Duke. In
In the struggle and distribution of interests, we hope that General Jing Yan can fully support the Duke of Dang De." The unpredictable smile on Minister Fan Zi's face disappeared, he became serious, and his voice lowered.
After hearing what Minister Fan Zi said, Jing Yan's expression turned cold.
"You want to use me, Jing Yan, as a weapon?" Jing Yan said coldly.
"General Jing Yan is serious. We are just cooperating. The faction represented by Grand Duke Fengmo is now the most powerful faction in the country. They have received the most benefits. They absolutely do not want the pattern of benefit distribution to be changed.
Change, so they definitely don’t want to see the birth of the national God of War. I can guarantee that the group of people headed by the Grand Duke Fengmo will definitely prevent His Majesty the King from entrusting the God of War. In other words, that faction is between us and Jing Yan
The common enemy of the generals." Minister Fan Zi said slowly in a deep voice.
"General Jing Yan, His Majesty the King fully advocates that you be granted the title of National War God. I think Commander Pan Xiujun will also fully support His Majesty the King's decision. If you can get the full support of the power represented by the Grand Duke of Dang De. Then, you
You can definitely become the Longyan God of War." Minister Fan Zi said with twinkling eyes.
"I understand what Minister Fan Zi means."
"If I can get your support, I can become the Longyan God of War. If I don't get your support, I can't become the Longyan God of War. So, I have only one choice, which is to agree to your conditions, right?" Jing Yan raised his eyes and said.
"Well, you can indeed say that. General Jing Yan is a smart man!" Minister Fan Zi nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Yeah, I understand. Now, you can go." Jing Yan nodded and said.
Minister Fan Zi's expression changed slightly.
"What do you mean, General Jing Yan?" Minister Fan Zi looked at Jing Yan.
"I mean, you can get out!" Jing Yan's voice suddenly condensed and shouted.
Minister Fan Zi was startled for a moment, and then his face turned red. He didn't expect Jing Yan to refuse, and with such an attitude, he turned his back.
"I'm afraid General Jing Yan will regret his decision now," Minister Fan Zi said with a sudden change in his face.
"Haha, I, Jing Yan, hate being threatened the most. Who are you, and you dare to come and threaten me?" Jing Yan sneered.
"Get out! I don't want to say it again!" Jing Yan's breath condensed, the power of the micron world shook, and Minister Fan Zi suddenly felt a strong pressure coming over him.
He stood up in panic and exited the reception room of the mansion in embarrassment.
Jing Yan was indeed a little annoyed. On the surface, Fan Zi was talking about cooperation, but in essence, he just wanted to find a puppet on strings and use Jing Yan as a puppet. Of course, Jing Yan would not agree to be a big deal with them.
The duke is used as a weapon in the factional struggle.
Furthermore, the second largest aristocratic faction in the kingdom wanted to cooperate with Jing Yan, but they only asked Minister Fan Zi to come over. The real leader, Grand Duke Dang De, refused to show up, and they did not give enough treatment to Jing Yan.
However, even if Grand Duke Dangde came in person, Jing Yan would not agree.
"Sir General." Butler Wu Xuan walked in.
Butler Wu Xuan was also waiting outside the reception room just now, so he heard the conversation between Jing Yan and Minister Fan Zi.
"Behind Minister Fan Zi is Grand Duke Dang De. After Minister Fan Zi returns, he may say some unfavorable words to Grand Duke Dang De. I am afraid that Grand Duke Dang De and the forces he represents will oppose the General in parliament.
Confess the Kingdom's God of War." Steward Wu Xuan said with a worried look on his face.
He looked at Jing Yan and continued: "If both the Grand Duke Fengmei and the Grand Duke Dangde object, then I'm afraid it will be difficult for His Majesty the King to continue to push forward."
"Well, I probably understand what's going on. But... they want to blackmail me with this threat, which is just nonsense. I want to see how they can prevent me from becoming the Longyan God of War." Jing Yan stood up and said in a deep voice.
