When the war in the southern part of the empire was in full swing, the imperial capital was also lurking inside and outside the city, and the undercurrent was turbulent!

Imperial Palace, inside the Imperial Study.

Fang Xuling put down the light pen in his hand and exhaled a little tiredly.

Next to her, Yun Yingxue, who was dressed in a palace skirt as pure as snow, behaved elegantly, and looked unparalleled with a demure expression, picked up the wine bottle in the jade plate and offered it to him with both hands.

"What has Meng Yan been doing lately?" He took it and took a sip and asked in a harmonious voice.

"This kid is obsessed with space technology research, and since her brother went on the expedition, she has been soaking in the laboratory and hasn't come back!" Yun Yingxue replied with a slight owe.

Fang Xu smiled: "This kid, except for his own field of interest, he doesn't care about anything else, it's quite like you!" ”

"Your Majesty......" Yun Yingxue was a little nervous.

"Don't worry, I don't mean anything else!" Fang Xu waved his hand and said with some emotion: "I'm praising her!" Be sensible, know how to advance and retreat, not your own things, never ask for extravagance! If all my children were like her, I wouldn't have so many troubles! ”

Yun Yingxue cautiously stopped, this matter in the court is definitely not something she should ask about!

Turning her head and seeing Yan Mengbing's manager walking in lightly, she immediately bowed down and said, "If Your Majesty has no other orders, the concubine will retire!" ”

Fang Xu nodded, waited for her figure to disappear outside the door, and asked casually, "How is the fight over there?" What's new coming back today? ”

Chief Yan smiled: "It's very smooth, after many days of fierce fighting, the imperial army has broken through the defense line of the Federation!" Recovered all the astrological fields! Yan Qinghong redeployed at the federal border, and transferred troops from all over the country to try to stabilize his position! But this is no longer helpful, if there is no strong foreign aid to enter, it is a sure fact that the Federation will continue to retreat! ”

"The performance of the Ability Legion in this battle is particularly outstanding, Yun Haoyu's kid personally killed three peak-level powerhouses of the Federation, and more than twenty demigod-level masters! With the gains of other powerhouses in the God ** group, the Federation's high-end ability combat power has lost most of it! No more qualified to go head-to-head against the Imperial Legion! ”

"That's good!" Fang Xujun said with relief, "This kid has never disappointed me, maybe it won't be long before my army can enter the territory of the Federation, and even reach the Star Domain of Tierbang, the capital of the Federation!" ”

Chief Yan said with some concern: "It seems too easy to swallow a big country like this!" Those neighbors will not sit idly by, and if they want to get a piece of the pie, how will the Empire respond? ”

"In the world of great contention, strength speaks!" Fang Xujun snorted coldly, "Want benefits? Okay! With enough strength, you can naturally do whatever you want! Without strength, it's useless to say anything! My legion is stationed there and will not leave, if they want to have the ability, they can take it upon themselves to invite them away! ”

"The territory of the Xuanluo Federation is tens of thousands of light-years, I am about to decide! Don't even think of beating it! ”

Yan Zongguan: "It's just easy to defeat a big country, but to completely destroy it, I'm afraid it won't be a short-term effort!" It won't take two or three years to finish. As a result, Her Royal Highness the Princess's wedding date will have to be postponed! ”

"Is this it?" Fang Xuqian thought for a while, "It's nothing, after she is sealed, let her go to the front line!" After all, her identity is a little special, and accumulating more military exploits can also make the opposition voices of the government and the opposition smaller! ”

Speaking of this, he stood up, paced around the study twice with a wine bottle, and asked slowly, "Over there in the East Palace, how is the recent movement?" ”

Manager Yan looked solemn and said in a low voice: "The second prince has become more and more unscrupulous recently!" Not only did he bribe and accept bribes everywhere, he wantonly formed a party, and won over important ministers in the DPRK, but also had close contacts with people from the six major families! ”

Fang Xujun's eyebrows twisted deeply, a little annoyed, and a little disappointed: "This kid, he is really carried away!" I didn't expect too much from him, but I didn't want him to be so excessive! ”

"Before, I thought that as long as his behavior was not too out of line, for the sake of his bloodline, when I finished cleaning up this court, it would not hurt to let him continue to be an idle prince! But now ......"

He didn't say any more, but the look in his eyes had already clearly expressed his intentions!

Manager Yan felt a pang in his heart, knowing that Fang Yanren was more than lucky this time! sighed, but didn't say much.

"I wonder when Your Majesty plans to do it?" She asked respectfully.

"Ten days from now!" Fang Xuqian said lightly, "All officials who have dealings with Fang Yanren must be strictly investigated, no matter how high their status was before, they cannot be tolerated!" ”

"Thinking about plotting against me now, huh! I'm not dead yet! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty! Do as you command! "Rao is Yan Mengbing has participated in the privy council for many years, and he is used to seeing the bloody wind and rain in the court, and he can't help but feel a chill at this time.

This time, I don't know how many big people want to fall to the ground and wipe out their families!

"Your Highness, aren't you really thinking about it?"

In the Emperor's East Palace, in the secret room, Crassus persuaded the prince on the main throne bitterly: "The ambitions of the six great families for the empire are well known, although this time they are forced by the situation and have to bow to His Highness, in fact, they still harbor evil intentions!" Your Highness must be on guard! ”

The high-spirited Fang Yanren said disapprehantly: "What is there to guard against? Now that they are desperate, can they have any other choice but to cling to this king? ”

"But Your Highness, they are just superficially submissive, this time they said that they would mobilize the courtiers to jointly write a letter, so that Your Highness will assist in state affairs and senate the military aircraft! In fact, they will roast you on the fire! Crassus said helplessly, "His Majesty the Emperor is now in the prime of the Spring and Autumn Period, how can he be willing to share power to His Highness?" In doing so, how can you agree to do so except to make Your Majesty unhappy! ”

"Alright, alright!" Fang Yanren said unhappily, "Now that the empire is at war with the Xuanluo Federation, there are too many things for my father to worry about!" This king, as a son, shares his father's worries as a matter of course! How could he be unhappy? ”

"You are also from one of the six great families, why are you so hostile to your own family? That's not good! This king is still thinking that when he ascends the throne in the future, he will let you go back to take charge of the Augustinian family! ”

Seeing that Crassus was going to say something more, he waved his hand a little impatiently and said, "Okay, don't mention this matter again!" You have been working a lot for this king recently, and you have really worked hard, this king will give you a long vacation, and reward you with a few beautiful maids, so you can recuperate at home with peace of mind! ”

Looking at the unfamiliar lord in front of him, Crassus's heart slowly became cold!

Your Highness, do you know that what you are doing now is an act of playing with fire that leaves no way out for yourself!

Look at the people gathered around you these days, right? Flattery, whiskers and horses, and music! Whatever you like to hear, they say; Whatever you like to play, they'll give you away!

Even if you are asked to do those things that are simply transgressing your duty, you don't even know how to introspect!

Did you know that the seat you are sitting in is a volcano! Since you sit down, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and be careful, so that you can ensure that you can survive safely and soundly until the day you reach the peak!

But you have stretched out your hand everywhere, and now you have hit your majesty with your idea! This is the way to die!

Sighing in his heart, Crassus couldn't even remember how he got out of the palace gate and returned to his residence.

When his butler saw him return, he immediately greeted him and said, "Master, there is a guest who wants to see you and has been waiting in the living room for a while."

"Who is it?" He asked nonchalantly.

"Mr. Crassus, I have long admired the great name! I don't mind if I take the liberty to come to the door today! A man with a handsome face and a handsome face, dressed in the uniform of a lieutenant general of the Imperial Ministry of Security, walked out and said with a smile.

"You are?" Crassus vaguely felt that the other party was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he had to ask.

"Contemptible Luo Hanxing! Now working for the Imperial Ministry of Security! He smiled, "There are some things I want to talk to you about!" ”

"Talk? What to talk about? Could it be ......" Crassus's face changed suddenly.

With his IQ, he had vaguely guessed what was going on, and he couldn't help but chill to his bones.

"Huh! Mr. Crassus has always been known for his resourcefulness! The contemptible people have been following you for a long time! Luo Hanxing's smile did not change, "Fang Yanren was able to recruit you to serve under his command, it was originally a very clever move!" If he could reuse you, he would never be like this today! ”

"What a pity! This guy treats talents with virtue just like he treats the women he likes! Sparing no expense, I tried my best to get it! After a while, the enthusiasm faded! ”

"Sir's current situation is the same as the woman he has played with who has entered the cold palace! I heard that if you want to see him now, you have to report it many times! Am I right? ”

The more he spoke, the more ugly Crassus's face became, and by the end he had completely chilled down.

"Your Excellency, what do you want to say?"

"It's very simple, I'm here this time to show my husband a clear way!" Luo Hanxing said, "Get out of that waste early!" The contemptible person will introduce you to a more worthy of support! ”

“……”

Yun Family Mansion.

In the study, Yun Hongchang said to Yun Hui with confidence: "Your Majesty has taken a stinky move this time, and he actually set up that waste as the prince!" But it's a great opportunity for us, isn't it? ”

"Can this guy make it?" Yunhui was skeptical, "Is it worth our effort to support?" ”

"It's just that he's incompetent!" Yun Hongchang said with a smile, "A waste who has no ability to get on the top at all just sat in that position!" I want to sit for a long time, but I also want to sit firmly! So what to do? ”

"I can only seek the support of powerful forces!" Yun Hui immediately understood what his father meant.

"Yes, if this guy wants to sit in that position, he absolutely can't do without our support! But there is no such thing as a free lunch, so he naturally wants to repay us, so that our interests can be maximized! Isn't it? Yun Hongchang said proudly,

"I will contact several other family heads, it is best to persuade them to unite together, support this guy, let him slowly participate in national politics, and gradually empty His Majesty! If it goes well, the family's crisis can be completely alleviated, and there is no need to worry about the dissatisfaction of those old guys! ”
