On the second day of Han Tao's visit to Xiangyu, it was rumored in the Yin'an court that the Han clan had completely defected to the three princes and drawn a line with the Xiang clan.

Xu was convinced that Xiangyu would indeed not embarrass the Han clan on this matter, so he dared to make his attitude clear.

At this time, the raccoon slave came back to his senses and realized that Han Tao came over that day, ostensibly to hold grievances for Han Tang Pear, but the real purpose was probably to test Xiangyu.

After taking the reassuring pill, he dared to take the Han clan to completely break away from the Xiang faction.

Losing the support of the Han clan, the most powerful clan, the momentum of the Xiang faction suddenly weakened a lot.

Some clans in the faction have the intention of wavering, but they still dare not act rashly because of Xiangyu and the Xiang clan, after all, not everyone has the strength of the Han clan.

Just when everyone was puzzled as to why the Xiang clan let go of the Han clan so easily, there was a news in the royal family.

The emperor intended to elect a crown prince.

But the emperor did not talk about this matter in the open, but through the mouth of the king's attendant who served him closely.

Wang Shiren has always been a good person, and he has long understood what he can say and what he can't say.

The people who read the Sacred Heart most thoroughly spread the word about this matter, most likely because of the emperor's instructions.

And the reason why the emperor did this, everyone can understand it at a glance, but it is just to make a false reality, half-truths and half-truths, and the test is ultimately the two eldest princes and third princes who are most likely to become the crown prince.

Look at who has the strongest concentration among the two.

If the king does not have enough concentration, how can he sit on the throne.

It just so happens that there is still a week left, and it is the Midyear Festival.

The beings in the ghost realm have begun to be restless.

Every year around the Midyear Festival, the Yin Qi gathers the most rapidly, which is the best time for ghosts to improve their mana, and during this time, there will always be wild ghosts who run wild and attack the people.

Therefore, the emperor gave the two princes a temporary exam question, and let the two of them be jointly responsible for the security of the city.

The eldest prince was in charge of the east and south cities, and the third prince was in charge of the west and north cities.

Now the three princes have the support of the Han clan, and Han Tao is the general of the military palace, in charge of the palace guard, and the three battalions of the five schools, the middle base, and the military guard.

The positions of military attache under him are all in the hands of the royal faction.

Among them, Qiu Manqian served as the guard Siqing, in charge of the Praetorian Guards to defend the city.

Although Qiu Manqian is in poor health all the year round, he can be regarded as an idle post, but in ordinary times, the person in charge of it is Weiwei Temple Shaoqing Yan Qiyuan, who is also a member of the royal faction.

At night, the guards everywhere were strictly guarded, and everyone's eyes were extremely bright, and they kept an eye on any movement around, for fear of missing a rat that had sneaked into the city.

In a small forest not far from the city gate, two black glows loomed in the moonlight, and then flew to a clearing at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, each transformed into a human form.

In the darkness, a voice took the lead to speak: "I have seen your methods, the soldiers are bloodless, and it is still a little interesting, you and I can indeed cooperate." ”

Another voice was overjoyed, and responded, "Thank you, Lord Blood!"

The Blood Withered Ghost said again: "Your mana cultivation is shallow, but your mind is so deep, with a few moves on the whip, you will beat people to death, and then you can easily separate the Han clan from the Xiang clan faction completely." ”

"Lord Blood's praise is just a small ploy, but fortunately I have lived in the human world for several years and learned some of their methods from them. Under the moonlight, Qili's face, which was more beautiful than a woman, showed a bit of cunning.

The Blood Blight let out a cold snort.

Qi Li smiled: "However, Lord Blood Wither let the Han clan break away from the Xiang clan, I don't know what his purpose is?"

The Blood Withered Ghost said: "The Xiang clan is the most powerful clan in the human race, and the popularity it gathers is even more impressive, even I am afraid of three points. ”

Qi Li pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized: "You want to weaken the popularity of the Xiang clan?"

The popularity endowed by the Xiang people is based on the reputation it has accumulated over thousands of years, and the clans that attach to and believe in the Xiang people are the main worshippers of these reputations.

Among the clans, the Han clan is the most popular.

The Blood Withered Ghost said proudly: "One day, the Xiang clan falls, and human beings will naturally not be afraid. ”

"Then our next step is to continue to divide the clans in the Xiang faction?"

"As soon as the Han clan leaves, it will no longer be difficult to break up the Xiang clan, and at the moment, I have another thing to do. ”

The frost moon is bright, and all whispers are hidden in the long night.

In the jade courtyard, Yueli was resting his chin with one hand, leaning against the open window, and playing with a sandalwood box in the other hand, with a smile on his face.

This box is the one that Hanyu gave to Xiangyu before.

These days, Yueli has been deliberately avoiding Xiangyu and avoiding her, and the reason is because she is jealous.

Hanyu gave him a gift, and he actually accepted it.

Isn't it the most taboo for men and women who have not married each other to receive each other? Xiangyu accepted the gift of Hanyu, didn't he regret that he couldn't marry Hanyu in the first place, and wanted to have a private lifelong drama with her?

She was already a little sad because of Yunrong's death, and Xiangyu added such a block to her, she couldn't get happier and happier, and the fence flower wine buried in the ground couldn't be drunk now, and she had nowhere to relieve her worries, gradually, she was a little depressed.

However, earlier today, Xiangyu actually ordered the tanuki slave to send this sandalwood box to the fence courtyard and left a message.

"Childe said, this box, you can dispose of it as you want. ”

When Yueli heard this, the depression in his heart was swept away, and his face, which had been hazy for a few days, finally cleared.

As soon as the tanuki slave left, she couldn't wait to immediately sprinkle the tea powder in the box inside and outside the yard, and the two maidservants guarding the yard felt a pain in their flesh.

What a precious incense powder, which she has so spoiled.

The moon fence rejoiced all day, and the excitement had not yet passed.

The hedge tree at the door suddenly shook, and the huge canopy made a rattling sound, and Moon Fence's thoughts were interrupted, and she looked out the window at the hedge tree.

What a weird wind!

Yuefen's expression froze, and she immediately stood up, she threw the empty box in her hand behind her, and it just fell into the hands of a maidservant: "It's for you!"

After Yueli finished speaking, he turned over, jumped out of the window, and walked towards the middle of the courtyard.

A cold wind passed behind him, and Yue Liang suddenly turned around, and his left hand quickly attacked, and a magic light shot out from his hand.

The wind immediately circled the side of the moon fence, and immediately carried her long hair that had been scattered and flew wildly.

Moonfence's view was blocked, and she brushed away the strands of hair that had blown around her eyes, pressing it with her hand, while her other hand reached out and grabbed at the wind.

After swooping into the air again, the moon fence directly conjured a handful of cold iron, stabbing straight at the wind that was moving in the other direction.

Who knew that before Han Tie arrived, he heard the direction of the wind, and suddenly there was a cry for help: "Don't kill me, it's me!

Yue Liang was taken aback, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, and said in surprise: "Old patriarch?!"
