After the prince's funeral, the emperor ordered that in the square in front of the palace, the prince Lin Xunren's tablet was set up for everyone to worship for three consecutive days. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

For the new crown prince candidate, the Emperor Fu did not even delay for a day to order, in accordance with the wishes of His Royal Highness the former prince, to appoint the fourth prince Lin Xunyun as the new prince, effective immediately.

On April 4, Shi Kaijie finally got out of the customs. Although he had successfully evolved into a martial artist on March 25, he had only completed the evolution in his body at that time, and he was not able to directly control the elements outside his body. After these few days of consolidation, he finally reached the standard of a first-class martial artist.

Walking out of the villa, Shi Kaijie took a deep breath, the air outside was still fresh, and he felt that his body was about to rust when he was in the villa.

Dugu Weiwei took Xiaoling and Zhan's guards to the square in front of the palace early in the morning to worship the former prince, which is said to be the most lively place in the capital in the past three days. Although Dugu Weiwei has never seen His Royal Highness the Prince, Queen Dugu is Dugu's aunt, and His Royal Highness the Prince is Dugu Weiwei's cousin in terms of seniority, and Dugu Weiwei has gone to worship in the past three days.

Shi Kaijie also has unusual admiration for His Royal Highness the Prince, anyway, he has time, and today is the last day of the external plaque worship, Shi Kaijie simply went to take a look.

Sitting on the enrollment and sending to the square in front of the palace, Shi Kaijie looked at the dense crowd in the square and couldn't help but gasp. There are so many people! How can you find Vivi and them?

The square in front of the palace is larger than the knight's square in front of the academy, and a new mourning hall was erected near the palace on the north side of the square, and a tablet was placed in the mourning hall - His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Lin Xunren.

A group of Praetorian Guards maintained order in the mourning hall, but the square was unattended.

You must know that this palace square usually does not allow ordinary people to stay for a long time, but these days are exceptional, not only allowed, but even set up stalls in the square no one cares. Now, the whole square is full of vendors setting up stalls.

Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does have a very high reputation, it is not the most concerned by ordinary people. The square that is not usually allowed to come is open for three days, and you can buy all kinds of things like a rally, which has led to the crowd in the square remaining high or even increasing for three consecutive days.

Shi Kaijie walked through the crowd to the front of the mourning hall, and he didn't find Wei Wei and the others along the way, but he unexpectedly saw a tall back in front of the mourning hall in a daze.

"Brother Hua!" Shi Kaijie rushed over and patted the man's shoulder heavily, and the man slowly turned around, sure enough, it was Hua Manxiang, who had been cultivating together in Huaqiangu for more than a year.

Seeing Shi Kaijie, Hua Manxiang was also very excited: "Brother Shi, have you evolved into a martial artist?"

After a few words of greeting, Hua Manxiang insisted on inviting Shi Kaijie to eat and drink, and kept saying that he had completed the regret when he left Hua Qiangu.

Just as the two of them were about to leave the square, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the square, and a luxurious carriage drove directly into the square under the escort of several Praetorian Guards. The two cavalry guards opened the way in front: "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince has arrived, give way, give way." ”

The Four Princes are here? Aren't they already crowned princes? Why are they still called the Four Princes?

Hua Manxiang seemed to know Shi Kaijie's question, and said beside him: "In the past three days, the four princes have come to worship every day, and they have asked that he should not be called the prince in front of the prince's mourning hall." ”

"He is showing great respect for the late Crown Prince!"

The carriage drove until it stopped in front of the mourning hall, and two people walked down one after another, one was Lin Xunyun, the fourth prince whom Shi Kaijie had met once in the Shangjing City Young Heroes Meeting, and the other person Shi Kaijie couldn't recognize.

"The one who walked in front was His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and the one behind him was Yuan Tian, the current chairman of the Xi family. ”

Shi Kaijie was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he reacted again, this is to give others a signal that the Xi family, the head of the four great families, is fully supporting the new prince!

Hua Manxiang was obviously not interested in the worship of the four princes and the head of the Xi family, and after they entered the mourning hall, she pulled Shi Kaijie out of the royal square.

In a private room of a restaurant on the edge of the Royal Square, Shi Kaijie and Hua Manxiang drank happily.

The two of them chatted all over the world, and after talking about the topic of cultivation, Shi Kaijie suddenly remembered Hua Manxiang's keen political vision shown before, and asked him what he thought of the current royal family? Is it really as Zhuge Buyi said, the world is about to be in chaos.

Hua Manxiang began to answer this question without a pause, obviously he had already thought about it before.

According to his opinion, it is impossible for the world to be in chaos, although the influence of Rong Guifei in the royal family, the court and the opposition is greater than that of the four princes, and Rong Guifei is from the Zi family, which almost guarantees that the Zi family, which ranks second among the four major families, has been tied to Rong Guifei's warship.

However, the Emperor of the Mansion has personally appointed the four princes as the crown princes, and His Royal Highness the former crown prince has also helped the four princes establish influence in the imperial court in front of the court, plus the Xi family has shown full support for the four princes, and now, the influence of the four princes has fully surpassed that of Concubine Rong.

The most important thing is that the fourteenth prince is too young, and his own experience can't be used at all, and he is only a twenty-one-year-old ninth-level martial artist. Concubine Rong is also known for her beauty and intelligence, and her own combat power is also very average, just a third-level martial artist. Although the fourth prince is more than 600 years old, he is the only remaining ninth-level martial artist in the royal family of the same generation, although his combat power is not as perverted as His Royal Highness the Prince, it is not bad.

In the end, Hua Manxiang concluded that if there was to be chaos in the world, unless the four princes were assassinated, the Emperor of the Mansion was seriously ill and could not manage any government affairs, and Concubine Rong and the Fourteen Princes were not enough to serve the public, causing the other princes to rebel. Otherwise, as long as the four princes are there, the other princes still have no chance, including the fourteenth prince with the support of Concubine Rong.

Moreover, Hua Manxiang didn't think that the four princes could be assassinated, a ninth-level great martial artist with good combat power, even if it was a top master like the head of the four great families or the head of the eight major sects, it was easy to defeat, but it was difficult to kill.

What's more, now that the head of the Xi family has been following the four princes, the possibility of assassination is even more avoided. You must know that Xi Yuantian's combat power is definitely one of the best in the Donglin Empire! Now that the Emperor is old, the crown prince is gone, and the royal family no longer has a super-first-class master, except for the Royal Knight Academy, Hua Manxiang even thinks that no one in the entire Donglin Empire can win Xi Yuantian safely.

Eh, Hua Manxiang actually thinks that the influence of the four princes is greater than that of Concubine Rong? This is different from the drama that Shi Kaijie took for granted before that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not there, the Emperor of the Mansion was old, and Concubine Rong was already able to coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes!
