Chapter 760: The Great Prince's Dilemma

"By the way, what are you doing here?" asked Rong Zhen.

"Ahem..."Jiang Cheng recovered his color and said: "Actually, it's nothing, I just saw that you and the eldest prince were discussing something, and I was a little curious, so I came over to ask." ”

Rong Zhen was speechless, can this matter be asked?

Seeing Rong Zhen's speechless expression, Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, "Don't mind! Just say anything about it, I'll help you publicize it!"

"This is Brother Jiangcheng!" Leng Qiu smiled and stretched out his right hand, "It's Leng Qiu!"

"Fortunately, I will be lucky!" Jiang Cheng also stretched out his hand and held Leng Qiu's hand.

Although he had never seen Leng Qiu or heard Leng Qiu's name, he knew that the man in front of him was the master behind Rong Zhen.

"Of course, thank you Brother Jiang Cheng for saving Sister Xue'er and Rong Zhen. "Leng Qiu is indeed very grateful to Jiang Cheng, if it weren't for him and the killers under him, Rong Zhen and Nangong Xue might have been killed long ago.

"Don't thank me. It's the choice of my brothers. If you want to thank them, thank them!" To be honest, that incident became a hurdle in Jiang Cheng's heart that he couldn't overcome.

He kept thinking that if they hadn't rescued Rong Zhen and Nangong Xue who were trapped in the Forgotten Immortal Tower, there would have been no next thing, and Chen Zhan and the others would not have died.

"I really should thank them!" Leng Qiu let go of his hand, patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder again, and said, "Mourning!"

"Yay, Yay! This matter has finally passed, and you have revealed it to me again. Jiang Cheng scolded with a smile, tears flashing in the corners of his eyes.

"Alright. To tell you the truth, we are here to negotiate with the eldest prince this time?" Leng Qiu felt that it would not hurt to tell Jiang Cheng about this.

"Negotiation?" Jiang Cheng looked at Leng Qiu very suspiciously, and said, "You have such a great hatred with the royal family, will they agree to negotiate with you?"

It is true that Rong Zhen killed the second prince, which is already a well-known thing, and besides, Leng Qiu's power is not very large, and he cannot threaten the royal family. Will the Great Prince negotiate with them?

Leng Qiu smiled, "It's very simple!"

"Interests?" Jiang Cheng was even more confused, how could they have an interest relationship with the eldest prince in Leng Qiu?

I don't understand, I don't understand!

Leng Qiu explained: "We will help the eldest prince successfully ascend to the throne, and in return, he will Zhaoxue for the Qin clan and return the territory of the Qin clan!"

"I see!" Jiang Cheng fell into deep thought, and after a moment, he smiled and said, "This is indeed a good deal. The Great Prince uses your power to clear the threat for himself. You don't have to fight for years to get the territory of the Qin clan as a territory. At that point, you can attack and retreat!

Jiang Cheng put away the smile on his face, "It's just, what if the eldest prince regrets it then?"

This is indeed a problem, if the eldest prince does not succeed to the throne, he has no right to divide the territory of the Qin clan to Leng Qiu and the others. But if he succeeds to the throne, he will turn his face and deny people, and Leng Qiu will have no benefit.

Leng Qiu sneered: "The eldest prince is a smart person, he."

The consequences of not keeping promises should be known. ”

"Alas, forget it. It's a matter for you and them, why am I following the headache. Jiang Cheng said again: "Since the eldest prince has agreed to cooperate with you, he will have a big move in the near future." Judging from the current form, there are two things he has to deal with first, one is those old guys in the palace. This second is the ten major families in the Imperial City. ”

Rong Zhen continued: "That's right." In the past, the ten major families in the imperial city were all neutral, but now that the three princes are powerful, they can't help but take sides. ”

"Doesn't it mean that there are a lot of family forces, and it doesn't make much sense to get the power of the top ten families, right?" Zhao Bufan asked what Leng Qiu was thinking.

Rong Zhen said, "You're wrong!" After a pause, he said, "Our top ten families are different from other family forces. You know, this is an imperial city, and if you can be in the same city as the royal family, how can it be an ordinary family power?"

"Is there any other reason for this?" Leng Qiu asked.

How complicated is the relationship and power territory of the Falling Moon Empire, anyway, Leng Qiu didn't understand...

Rong Zhen explained: "It's very simple. For example, the Rong family, in addition to the family power, also has eight cities under its jurisdiction, and we can also expand our power externally, such as snatching the territory of the demon clan. Otherwise, how do you think I got the name of General Chang Sheng? This is something that other family forces do not have. ”

"That's what I said. Isn't the combined strength of your ten major families relative to the strength of three or four royal cities?" Leng Qiu pondered.

"So to speak. However, the ten major families are very hostile to each other, and it is impossible for them to cooperate sincerely. However, if the three princes want to make trouble, they will not sit idly by. Rong Zhen replied.

"That is to say. Just deal with the ten major families in the Imperial City and those old guys in the palace. That's basically the big picture!" Leng Qiu said.

Rong Zhen said: "That's right. It's just that it's not so simple for the eldest prince to convince those old guys and the people of the ten major families. ”

"That's what he's going to worry about. Besides, to be able to win over one is one, you don't necessarily have to gather the ten major families. Leng Qiu said.

A few people nodded, Rong Zhen looked at Jiang Cheng again, and said with a smile: "I don't know what choice your Jiang family will make?"

Jiang Cheng spread his hands and said, "Don't ask me." I've never meddled in the affairs of my clan. What they choose is none of my business. However, I will not sit idly by and watch the two families fall into this whirlpool of chaos. Before the eldest prince has no chance of winning, the Jiang family will not stand on his side. ”

Jiang Cheng's face was solemn again, "I said it!"

"Don't worry! he'll have a chance to win. Otherwise, what do you want us to do?" Leng Qiu's mouth curled into a strange arc.

"That's what you're going to worry about. Jiang Cheng said indifferently.

"Someone's coming!" Xie Ying, who had not spoken, spoke, her eyes kept on the side of the door.

"We shouldn't reveal our identities, so let's leave first!"

Jiang Cheng and Xie Ying quickly left here.

Knock knock!

The knock on the door rang again.

"It's me!" came the voice of the Great Prince outside the door.

"Come in!" Leng Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted quickly, needless to say, the eldest prince came to deliver those materials, Leng Qiu just didn't expect that the eldest prince would send it in person.

Sure enough, the eldest prince walked in with a stack of materials in his hand.

"Huh, why are you all standing?" exclaimed the eldest prince.

Leng Qiu smiled, "A habit that has been developed over the years. Once someone approaches, they will subconsciously enter a state of vigilance. Don't be surprised!"

Leng Qiu sweated in his heart, the great prince's sharpness and perception were really terrifying, if there was no reasonable reason to prevaricate and explain, he might find out that someone had been here.

"Where, where. The eldest prince first laughed lightly, and then said with some self-reproach: "I can't give a few people a sense of security, so that a few people are scared here." ”

The eldest prince laughed. Come, please take a seat!" Leng Qiu poured a glass of wine for the eldest prince.

The eldest prince nodded with a slight smile, sat down, and handed the information in his hand to Leng Qiu, "Here is the information of some family forces that I have sorted out." Look at it!"

Leng Qiu's face twitched, and he smiled bitterly: "You see that there are only these few people, and you are embarrassed to give us so many things, this is a bit unkind, right?"

The eldest prince smiled awkwardly: "No... It's also good to know more..."

"Okay. We'll take a look when we have time. Leng Qiu then asked, "How are you going to deal with those old guys in the palace?"

The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, then looked at Rong Zhen, and quickly relieved, it should be Rong Zhen who told Leng Qiu.

The eldest prince said, "To tell you the truth. Those old antiques were arrogant when they were young. It's not that easy to get them to help. Coupled with the talent and ability that the third brother has shown since he was a child. If it was an empire in wartime, there was no doubt that they would support the third brother. But fortunately, the empire is not in chaos, so they have to think about it. ”

"Then what are you going to do if they support the Three Princes?" Leng Qiu asked again.

"I don't know. Maybe for the sake of the people, I will surrender to my third brother. But I'm still unwilling!" the eldest prince sighed.

"With your ability, after surrendering, they won't let you go!" Rong Zhen said.

"I know. But what can I do? Divide the empire?" the Grand Prince asked rhetorically. "Other empires are still eyeing each other, and once we split, they will unite to divide up my Falling Moon Empire. ”

"But have you ever thought that with the ability of the third prince, he will not necessarily surrender to you. At that time, what if he unites people from other empires to rebel? At that time, won't the empire still be in chaos?" Leng Qiu said.

The eldest prince was silent, no matter who is the heir now, the Falling Moon Empire has the possibility of being divided.
