As soon as they heard the bad news, everyone instinctively chuckled in their hearts, but Wang Zizhan, who was the first to react, seemed to think of something, and said with some uncertain temptation: "Could it be that the national teacher already has a choice?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, Sima De took a deep look at Wang Zizhan, and then sighed and said: "If nothing else, Bai Ling should have participated in the battle for the crown prince, and the prince chosen will definitely not be His Royal Highness the Great Prince that we have chosen." ”

The moment they heard the word Bai Ling, everyone was silent, and no one dared to answer rashly. National Teacher Bai Ling, the entire Southern Regions dares to call him by his name like this, except for Emperor Yan, I am afraid that Sima De is alone, even Emperor Yan has never called the name of National Teacher Bai Ling in front of people.

"What are you afraid of, this is the Taishi Mansion, protected by the national fortunes of the Great Yan Dynasty, what is said here, even the Yan Emperor can't peep into it, even if Bai Ling is proficient in divination and good at deriving heavenly opportunities, it is impossible to overhear our conversation!" Seeing that everyone was silent, Sima De couldn't help but say angrily.

As soon as the words fell, they saw that everyone was cautiously relieved, and Sima De's face darkened at the moment, and there was no need to explain anything more about the current situation, it was obvious that these guys were worried that the conversation with them would be spread just now, and they were all people who had seen the wind and waves, but their courage was smaller than small!

"Don't blame the Taishi, it's just that what the Taishi just said, is there a basis?"

Everyone turned their heads to look, but it was Yan Qiang, the commander of the east, who opened his mouth and asked, although he didn't say it explicitly in his words, but obviously he didn't believe in the statement that the national teacher was involved in the battle for the prince, or he didn't believe it at all.

In fact, not only Yan Qiang, but also the news of the national teacher's participation in the battle for the crown prince, after the initial shock, everyone was suspicious of the news, after all, the Great Yan Dynasty has been inherited for thousands of years, and all the national teachers have taken it as their responsibility to deduce the fortune of the country, and there has never been a precedent for participating in events such as the battle of the prince.

The reason for this, on the one hand, is that it is too exhausting to calculate the fortune of the country, and there is no extra energy to devote to the battle for the prince, and on the other hand, it is not necessary, the position of the national teacher is not something that anyone can sit on, and there are extremely few warriors in the world who know the way of divination and deduction, and those who are proficient are even rarer.

"The old man went to visit in person, but he couldn't even enter the door, doesn't this mean that what the old man said is not groundless?" As soon as he thought of what happened to him outside the National Teacher's Mansion, Sima De's heart was depressed, and he replied in a bad tone at the moment: "What, Commander Yan doesn't have other opinions?"

Yan Qiang moved his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Han Leng, the southern commander who was sitting on the side. As we all know, the personal relationship between Taishi Sima De and the current national teacher Bai Ling is actually quite good, but later both of them were in high positions, so there was no contact, and now Sima De went to visit in person, but he couldn't even enter the door, doesn't this explain the seriousness of the problem?

"According to the old lady's opinion, Bai ...... Which prince will the national teacher choose to participate in the battle for the crown prince?" Wang Zizhan hesitated, but still didn't dare to call him by his name.

"The old man doesn't know either!" Sima De sighed and said helplessly: "To be honest, the old man and you all have similar ideas, if it weren't for Bai Ling's clear words, the old man wouldn't have believed that she was involved in the battle for the prince." ”

"In fact, with her status and status, there is no need to go to this troubled water, no matter which prince ascends the throne in the end, she will be courteous, but now she is participating in the battle for the crown prince with such an attitude, once the person who finally ascends the throne is not the prince she chooses, it will inevitably hate the new emperor, and the gains outweigh the losses!"

"Hmph, since she dared to participate in the battle for the crown prince, with her ability, she already knew the consequences of defeat, anyway, she was already destined to not be a fellow traveler, since she herself was not worried, why should we be coy here?" Xue Li, who had not said a word since Sima De entered the mansion, suddenly spoke up, and there were more sarcasm than cold words in his words.

"You dare to ridicule the old man!" Taishi Sima De's eyes narrowed slightly, staring coldly at Xue Li who was sitting on the seat, and the boundless power was raging wantonly in the lobby, and a silver wolf phantom was formed behind him, and he was about to pounce on Xue Li between roars.

"What's wrong with ridiculing you!" Although Xue Li's whole face turned pale because he was oppressed by the power of the silver wolf, he still gritted his teeth and said: "Don't think I don't know what you people think of me Xue Li, look at my Xue family, if it weren't for everyone's consistent goals, Lao Tzu wouldn't have bothered to come to your place!"

At that moment, Xue Li was about to get up and leave, but as soon as he stood up, he stopped, his face turned pale, because Xue Li could clearly perceive that there were already two killing intents in the air that locked him, and once he took a step further, Xue Li believed that even if he had the cultivation of the king realm, he would be killed in an instant.

"Think twice, old lady!"

Seeing that Xue Li was about to be splashed with blood on the spot, Wang Zizhan hurriedly sent a message to Sima De: "Although Xue Li and the Xue family behind him are not worth mentioning, but the old lady should not forget Xue Li's other identity, he is the uncle of His Royal Highness the Great Prince, no matter what, the relationship between relatives and relatives is already there, once the old lady kills Xue Li, even if the old lady helps His Royal Highness the Great Prince to sit on the throne in the future, I am afraid that there will inevitably be mustard between this monarch and ministers, I think this should not be what the old lady wants to see, right?"

Wang Zizhan's words immediately pulled Sima De back from a state of rage, in fact, Sima De was at odds with the current Yanhuang Lin Yu, and in desperation in order to protect himself, he chose to participate in the battle for the prince, otherwise, with his identity as the elder of the three dynasties and the prince of the two dynasties, there is no need to participate in this thankless battle for the prince.

Because what Wang Zizhan said later was directly transmitted to Sima De through the way of sound transmission, except for the old lady at the beginning, no one knew what Wang Zizhan said to Sima De, so that Sima De's complexion was constantly changing.

It seems that Sima De has made a decision in his heart, and his ever-changing face gradually returns to its original gloomy appearance, and just when everyone thought that Xue Li was afraid that he would be in danger this time, the silver wolf phantom behind Sima De slowly dissipated, although it was not explicitly stated, but the meaning could not be more obvious.

Xue Li, who was already preparing to die, suddenly found that the two killing intents behind him that had locked him had disappeared, and he hurriedly ran towards the outside of the Taishi Mansion without looking back, for fear that Sima De would change his mind in the next breath.

It wasn't until he ran out of the Taishi Mansion that Xue Li stopped, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and found that his back had been wet with cold sweat.

In the Taishi Mansion, Taishi Sima De watched Xue Li leave the Taishi Mansion with a pale face, and only after a while did he hold back the sentence "The erection is not enough and the plan!", and then sat back on the main seat angrily, drinking the spiritual tea without saying a word.

Seeing this, everyone also unanimously picked up the tea cup next to them, and drank the spiritual tea silently, at the moment, Taishi Sima De was obviously angry, if he said something wrong, he was afraid that he would die in vain, they didn't have such a hard relationship with Xue Li, and they could have a relationship with His Royal Highness the Great Prince.

"Emperor Yan has a total of eight heirs, of which the second prince Lin Quan has entered the Qin Heavenly Prison, the fourth prince Lin Ye has served as the commander of the army of 100,000 warriors, the fifth prince Lin Qi died early, the sixth prince Lin Dao and the seventh prince Lin Xuan each worshiped into the sect, in addition to these five, the remaining princes who are still qualified to participate in the battle for the crown prince are only the eldest prince Lin Xuan, the third prince Lin Dian and the eighth prince Lin Dark. ”

After a moment of silence, Sima De suddenly opened his mouth and asked everyone: "Among these three princes, apart from His Royal Highness the Great Prince, have the other two been in any news recently?"

"The third prince, Lin Dian, once came to me. ”

Hearing this, Wang Zizhan smiled bitterly and said: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince heard that there is a thunder guide in the Wang family, so he came to the Wang family some time ago to borrow it to see it, but was rejected by the old man, after all, the thunder is by no means the only one left in ancient times, and the merits of the exercise itself cannot be verified, once His Royal Highness the Third Prince makes a mistake in the cultivation process, the Wang family will not dare to bear this responsibility!"

"In this way, I remember that His Royal Highness the Third Prince also came to Zaixia some time ago, saying that he wanted to find the relics of the Heavenly Thunder Sect in the ancient period, and asked me to borrow all the materials in the southern region to read it. Han Leng, the commander of the south, thought for a while and said, "This is not a big deal, so I will directly lend him all the materials." ”

"I heard that the exercises practiced by His Royal Highness the Three Princes themselves are related to thunder and lightning, it seems that this Royal Highness the Third Princes is really obsessed with the Thunder Dao!" said Yan Qiang, the Eastern Commander, with a smile.

Hearing this, Sima De's brows furrowed slightly, but then he put it down again, and then asked, "What about the Eighth Emperor Lin Di, and what is the movement on his side?"

"This ...... There doesn't seem to be any movement?" everyone thought about it, but they all shook their heads in unison.

"No movement, how is this possible?"

Sima De was stunned for a moment, and then said with a face full of disbelief, and at the same time, he was a little more vigilant about His Royal Highness the Eighth Emperor in his heart, acting so low-key, if it was in an ordinary family or a sect, it might be due to his personality or concentrate on cultivation, but in the royal family, the more low-key it is, the more it shows that the picture is big, and it is comparable to non-idle people!
