Chapter 60: The Princes of the Maple Leaf Empire

After Wang Qiang wrote a letter, he handed it to Yas and asked him to pass it on his behalf.

"Don't worry, it's going to be soon! It will take five or six days to go back and forth. Yas said, patting his chest.

The matter of sending the letter, Wang Qiang completely handed over to Yas, there is no need for the other party to refuse this kind of trivial matter, and it is related to Eri, the relationship between Yas and Ari should actually be very good.

And Wang Qiang took advantage of this time to carefully investigate the political situation of the Maple Leaf Empire. Many things have not been strictly kept secret, and if you really investigate, you can find out something, but the more secret ones may not be so simple to find. However, Wang Qiang only needs general information, at least, it can give him a bottom in his heart.

As the investigation progressed, Wang Qiang found that the situation was more complicated than he thought.

The emperor of the Maple Leaf Empire, Bugarena Calus, has lived for two thousand years, and he has ten sons in his life, the first six of whom are more than a thousand years old. He had lived so long that he lost interest in everything and felt that power was all that mattered. However, his limit is not far off, and he will die in a hundred years at most. So there was this battle for the throne that was going on in secret.

Twenty years ago, Calus met Lisa, the mother of the Seven Princes, and fell in love with it. It is said that Lisa is the number one beauty in the mainland, and her beauty has rekindled the lust of Calus, who has been abstinent for many years, and he even used the Praetorian Guards, just to snatch this woman! According to some scattered records, it can be vaguely known that at least hundreds of people died in this competition!

Lisa was reluctant at first, but with the birth of the Seventh Prince, she gradually accepted her fate. But the good times didn't last long, when she gave birth to the Tenth Prince, she died of dystocia, very suddenly, like a curse, and even the ninth-order healing magic failed to save Lisa's life.

From then on, Calus was particularly disgusted with the Ten Princes, thinking that he had killed Lisa and killed the woman he loved the most!

What Wang Qiang investigated and what he knew before can be correct. Calus excluded the Seventh Prince because of his greed for power, and snubbed the Tenth Prince because of Lisa's death.

But Wang Qiang always felt that there was something wrong with this, so he continued to read other information.

The eldest prince of the Maple Leaf Empire is already 1,200 years old this year, with average talent, and with countless heavenly and earthly treasures, he has barely cultivated to the seventh order, but since he is the first son of Calus, he still has a chance to win the throne.

The second prince is only ten years younger than the eldest prince, but he is a ninth-order warrior with good talent, good combat effectiveness, and little ambition, and is deeply loved by Calus, one of the strong contenders for the throne.

The third prince is about 1,100 years old, but he is the most hopeless one, a representative of eating and waiting for death, the strength of the sixth order speaks for itself, and his lifespan is completely continued by the treasure of heaven and earth. However, he is quite easy-going with others, and he has no prince's frame at all.

The fourth prince nodded at the age of a thousand years, although his strength is not good, but he has many friends, and there are friends in all walks of life, this is a powerful invisible force, although there is no real power, but it has a lot of influence. Also one of the strong contenders for the throne.

The fifth prince is a martial idiot, a ninth-order warrior, and he only has martial arts and competition in his head all day long. He is talented, but he is not politically savvy, and he does not care about political deceit at all. If you fight for the throne, you can completely win him over.

The Sixth Prince was a half-elf, and if he was still alive, he would be exactly a thousand years old at this time. His mother was a beautiful elven woman. But because he is not pure-blooded and not a pure-blooded human, he is discriminated against by everyone. Later, his mother died tragically in the palace, and then he disappeared. It is said that his talent is very strong, and before he disappeared, at the age of thirty, he already had the strength of the eighth order or above!

It's going to be said here, it's difficult for people with impure blood to survive in this world, half-elves, half-orcs or whatevers will be looked down upon by all races, even the people in the ghetto. Even in some large families, even buying slaves will not buy these people of impure blood. These people of impure blood are all called "niah", which means lowly mongrel.

Next is the Seven Princes that Wang Qiang is familiar with, the Seven Princes are only nineteen years old this year, known as the most talented person in the history of the Odora Continent, the perfect incarnation. But because of this, he was jealous of Calus, and he was already engaged to the fourteenth princess of the Tulip Empire, and he was going to the Tulip Empire soon. This time the battle for the throne has been out of the game ahead of schedule.

The Eighth Prince was a prodigal son, only seventeen years old, he was nostalgic for the flowers, and the leaves did not touch him. became the dream lover of countless noble ladies, but unfortunately it was also because his private life was too chaotic to be loved by Calus, and this battle for the throne was not competitive.

The Nine Emperors are the most beloved son of Calus, very intelligent, never causing trouble, well-behaved and endearing. Fifteen years old, not very old but not young, he is also very good at governing the country, and he has also made great contributions to the Maple Leaf Empire! There is still a long time before Calus dies, which is enough to train him to become a qualified king!

As for the Ten Princes, there is not much difference between what he said and what he and the Seventh Princes said.

After reading the information, Wang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, and he also knew what he felt was wrong at that time.

The best chance of this battle for the throne should be the Nine Emperors, who were personally cultivated by Calus, and let him get into politics and deal with the government when he was still young.

But the Nine Emperors are also the younger brothers of the Seventh Princes, and they are their own younger brothers, the Seventh Princes have always maintained a perfect image, if he is really so perfect, he should not be so obvious to stand in line and favor his other younger brother.

So the purpose of his self-seeking is to maintain his image and help his younger brother at the same time? He had saved the life of the Ten Princes before, and he had an intersection with the Ten Princes, even if he supported the Ten Princes, he would not be suspected.

Wang Qiang felt that there might be other possibilities, but he really couldn't think of it, but after this incident, he had realized the importance of intelligence.

"In the future, if there is an opportunity, we must establish an intelligence team. Wang Qiang secretly made up his mind.

......

On the other side, the frontier.

"Duke Ironwall, why did you come to inspect my work?" Ari was flattered to see Duke Ironwall's arrival.

"You kid is so diligent, it can't be that you have done something unkind. Duke Tiebi said with a smile.

"How so! I'm here for the Empire!" said Ari, righteously.

"Alright, alright, don't be poor, come here this time, there is a letter for you. Duke Tiebi pulled out a letter from the spatial ring.

"Wow, who's such a big name that can entrust you to deliver the letter in person?" said Ari was a little strange.

"My son asked me to send it, it is said to be your brother-in-law, it just so happens that I also want to come to you to see it, so I came to send it in person. "Duke Tiebi doesn't care that much, but it's just a matter of convenience.

"Wang Qiang?" said Ari had some bad premonitions.
