Ever since the news was released in the Eternal Heavenly Palace that the Eternal Lord planned to relinquish power and choose a new Eternal Lord to be crowned the Lord of Destiny, the situation in the entire Eternal Heavenly Capital has become undercurrent.
Eternal Capital, inside the eldest prince’s eternal and unparalleled mansion.
The eldest prince is eternally unparalleled. He is the eldest son of the Lord of Eternity. His cultivation and ability are outstanding among all the princes. He is considered a strong candidate for this battle to seize the throne.
Yongying Wushuang was sitting in the pavilion fishing, with a scribe in white standing next to him.
"Your Highness, it is absolutely certain that His Majesty is resigning from office. The news was released by His Majesty's personal maid Murong Jinchai," said the scribe He Chuan.
Yongying Wushuang suddenly pulled the fishing line and pulled out a dragon: "It seems that this is what the father wants. He wants us brothers to distinguish ourselves."
He Chuan said softly: "Among all the princes, the only ones who can pose a threat to your highness are Murong Tianba and Murong Tianhao."
"His Royal Highness Tianba himself is one of the top ten military commanders of Eternal Heaven, and his military talents have always been liked by His Majesty. As for His Highness Eternal Tianhao, the maternal clan behind him is huge and his abilities are also good. These two people are the biggest threat to His Highness.
As for the other princes, they are not worth mentioning."
Eternal Wushuang grabbed the dragon and held it in his hand. The dragon kept struggling. It was a plaything whose intelligence had been wiped out.
"Although Tianba has powerful military power, he does not have the political wisdom to govern the world. What worries me the most is my eighth brother. I used to be arrogant, but in recent years I have been low-key and tolerant, which is quite a bit...
The meaning of keeping a low profile."
"He Chuan, what are your suggestions for dealing with these two people?"
He Chuan narrowed his eyes and said: "His Royal Highness Tianba is easily angered. It is not difficult to use this to make him make mistakes. For His Highness Eternal Tianhao, I think we can use Gu Tianke to get in."
"Your Highness, this is a great opportunity for you!"
"Yes, Your Highness, you have the greatest military power among all the princes, and you have the most elite snow dragon cavalry in Eternal Heaven. Which of the other princes can compete with you?"
"Your Majesty's intention in revealing this is obviously to ask you to openly fight with the other His Highnesses. I think it would be better to lead troops to the other His Highnesses' mansions and tie them all up!"
In the military camp, a group of generals were also discussing the matter in Eternal Tianba's mansion.
Eternal Tianba is tall and tall, with a heroic appearance. He is wearing a black robe. He is sitting upright with his eyes deep in thought.
He is the fourth son of the Lord of Eternity and one of the top ten military commanders of Eternal Heaven. He has fifteen million snow dragon cavalry under his command and is the most elite cavalry unit of Eternal Heaven.
He also controls the relatively rare cavalry charge formation, which is astonishingly powerful.
Eternal Heavenly Tyrant said lightly: "If only it could be that simple. If I directly lead the troops to tie up all my elders and younger brothers, I don't know how the civil and military ministers of the Eternal Heavenly Kingdom will criticize me."
Guo Ziming, the military commander of Eternal Tianba, smiled and said: "The commander-in-chief is right. Such forceful means cannot be used. However, we have countless strong men under our command. If we can suppress the arrogance of other princes, it would be a good idea to force them to give up voluntarily!"
"Does the military advisor have any clever plans?" Everyone looked at Guo Ziming expectantly.
Eternal Tianhao Mansion.
Eternal Tianhao is also discussing this matter with his confidants, discussing how to win the position of successor to the Eternal Lord.
"Your Highness, I think we have to give full play to our strengths. Our biggest competitors are actually two, His Highness Eternal Wushuang, and His Highness Eternal Tianba."
"As the eldest son, His Highness Eternal Wushuang has extraordinary abilities. Many people think it is reasonable for him to be the heir."
"His Royal Highness Eternal Tianba holds military power, has numerous military exploits, and has many supporters."
"Compared to these two, our greatest advantage is your own ability, Your Highness, and the maternal power behind the Imperial Concubine!"
"The Gongsun family is the largest family power in the Eternal Capital besides the Eternal Royal Family. The Gongsun family will definitely support you with all its strength. If you make good use of the power of the Gongsun family, you will definitely be able to influence countless ministers to make choices."
The speaker was Jiao Wanzhang, a counselor under Yongyan Tianhao.
Another counselor agreed: "Yes, as long as the Gongsun family is willing to fully support His Highness, it will be easy for His Highness to succeed."
Yongheng Tianhao frowned and said, "I will go to my uncle and grandpa to discuss this matter."
The next day, Eternal Tianhao went directly to the Gongsun family's mansion.
The Gongsun family is the top family in the ancient world. The old head of the Gongsun family also has the identity of the father of eternalism.
When the Eternal Royal Family started to revolt, the Gongsun family was the first supporter. The Eternal Lord's father and the old head of the Gongsun family had a very good life-and-death relationship as brothers.
The Lord of Eternity was also the adopted son of Gongsun's old family leader. He later married the daughter of Gongsun's old family leader as his concubine and gave birth to Eternal Tianhao.
When Eternal Tianhao came to the gate of the Gongsun family, the concierge of the Gongsun family immediately opened the middle door respectfully and welcomed Eternal Tianhao into the family.
Yongying Tianhao did not see his grandfather. The person who met him was the current head of the Gongsun family, his uncle, Gongsun Dongming.
"Uncle——" Eternal Tianhao saluted respectfully.
Gongsun Dongming waved his hand: "Sit down, I know why you came to me."
Yongheng Tianhao sat down, and his aunt came over to pour tea for the two of them, and then left.
Eternal Tianhao said: "Uncle, I hope the Gongsun family can support and help me."
Gongsun Dongming sighed: "We also want to help you, but we can't."
Eternal Tianhao frowned: "Why?"
Gongsun Dongming picked up the tea cup and blew on the tea foam. After taking a sip of tea, he said: "His Majesty talked to me a year ago. He said something, is the Gongsun family still satisfied with their current status?"
"I was so frightened at that time that I could only reply that His Majesty's favor is like a mountain. The Gongsun family will be grateful to you for generations to come."
"I have been thinking about this sentence since I came back. It was not until later that there was news in the Heavenly Palace that Your Majesty was going to choose a successor. At that time, I understood what His Majesty meant by this sentence."
Gongsun Dongming glanced at Eternal Tianhao: "Our Gongsun family can be regarded as a supreme minister in the capital of heaven, in the eternal heaven, and in the eternal heaven. We have reached the extreme and it is impossible to improve again."
"Tian Hao, if we support you and become the Eternal Lord in the future, how will you repay us?"
"This—" Eternal Tianhao was speechless.
Then he understood something, and his eyes narrowed: "My father's words are just to attack the Gongsun family because I want to come to you today!"
Gongsun Dongming nodded and said: "Yes, His Majesty knows that you will definitely come to us. The meaning of his words is to prevent us from having anything to do with your fight for the heir."
