Chapter 262: The Overall Situation of the Imperial Court

Ning Xiaochuan took an intermittent healing pill and began to slowly refine the pill qi to heal the injuries in his body

In the study, there are only the Marquis of Jiange, Ning Qiancheng, and Ning Xiaochuan. They can be regarded as the three most powerful people in the three generations of the Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion, and they can also be regarded as the absolute rulers of the Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion.

"Qiancheng, you say, there are some big things that Xiaochuan should understand. "Sword Pavilion Marquis.

Ning Qiancheng's expression was solemn, and he took down a dragon skin map from the bookshelf

This is a real dragon skin, peeled from the body of the evil dragon, with dense lines engraved on it, marking the territory of the sixty-three domains of the Yulan Empire.

The locations of ancient cities and important towns are painted with dots, the locations of garrisons and dangerous passes are painted with human figures, and some important places are dotted with red dots.

In addition to the territory of the Yulan Empire, the map also marks the dynasties, kingdoms, and federations around the empire, some small countries are as big as a "domain" of the Yulan Empire, and some small countries only have a piece of territory as big as a fingertip on the map.

"To the west, there were a total of forty-eight dynasties of the "Three Civilizations" attached to the Yulan Empire. However, not long ago, the armies of thirty of these dynasties had gathered in the border fortress, with a total of 17 million troops, eyeing the border city of Fansai in the west of the empire, and there was a tendency to swallow mountains and rivers. ”

"If so, the Thirty Kingdoms coalition is coming east. The three western regions of the empire will surely fall into endless wars, and the people will be displaced, and the bones will be piled up, and the treasures, money, food, and women will be robbed. Even if the Imperial Lion went to suppress it, it would not be possible to calm it down in a few years. ”

Ning Qiancheng dotted thirty red dots on the map and marked the location of the army on it.

Ning Xiaochuan said: "Those three-rank civilizations have limited resources and backward martial arts, even if they are integrated into a coalition army, they are only numerically advantageous, and they will definitely be vulnerable in front of the lion army of the Imperial Palace." ”

Ning Qiancheng said with a smile: "Xiao Chuan, do you know what is a paper soldier? You are now a paper soldier." When you really lead the troops to the customs, you will find that 'if there are more than 10,000 sergeants, you will become a sea.' Just 10,000 sergeants are like a sea of people. Seventeen million troops, what's that concept?"

"Even if the soldiers of the Yulan Empire are all masters of one enemy and ten, but when the seventeen million army rushes over, how many people can you stop? When these troops break through the border and enter the empire, what a terrible chaos it will cause, this is not at all we can imagine. ”

Ning Xiaochuan said: "I'm curious about one thing, now the Yulan Empire is a prosperous dynasty, martial arts are prevalent, martial arts are numerous, and the major princes and princes are all majestic and strategic. Where did these three-grade civilizations come from to dare to argue with the Yulan Empire? Aren't they afraid of destroying the country?"

Ning Qiancheng nodded and said, "This is exactly why I returned to the Imperial City. Where did these three-grade civilizations come from? Who is behind them?"

Ning Xiaochuan and Ning Qiancheng's eyes stared at the Sword Pavilion Marquis sitting at the top at the same time.

In terms of marching and fighting, Ning Qiancheng is definitely a brave and fierce general, a good commander who can strategize.

However, if you want to analyze the situation in the imperial court, control the overall situation, and be far-sighted, you still have to see through the old man who has lived for nearly a hundred years

This is the human experience

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion said: "I'm afraid that something big is going to happen in the Yulan Empire, just within a few years, no more than five years, there will definitely be princes who want to raise troops to rebel." ”

Ning Qiancheng's expression moved, and he said, "Lord Hou is saying that the main messenger behind these three-grade civilizations comes from within the Yulan Empire, is it a certain prince who has the power of the world?"

"To be exact, it's a prince," said the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion.

The Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion is already one of the most powerful among the major Marquis Mansions, and even the Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion does not have the confidence to seize the throne of Emperor Yulan, and no one else has that ability.

So, there is only the king

In the Yulan Empire, there are only four princes who are hereditary thrones, and their power is also the most powerful, the King of the Golden Peng, the King of the Qilin, the King of the Divine Dragon, and the King of the Peacock.

Of course, since Emperor Yulan ascended the throne, he has also rewarded several princes, but those princes are just a title, and after their deaths, their heirs cannot inherit their thrones. Therefore, these princes cannot be compared with the four hereditary kings at all.

Only the four kings have such a powerful prestige and can command the monarch of the three-grade civilization.

"Could it be that the Great Golden Peng King is ready to start seizing the throne?" Ning Qiancheng said.

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion said: "The Great Golden Peng King has more than three layers of soldiers and horses in the Yulan Empire, and he is the number one master of the imperial court, as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see it, it is only a matter of time before he takes the throne of the Yulan Emperor." ”

Ning Qiancheng said: "With the power of the Great Golden Peng King in the imperial court and his prestige in the army, it is actually an easy task to seize the throne of the Yulan Emperor, and it doesn't take so many weeks at all."

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion stared at Ning Qiancheng sneeringly, as if to say, boy, you are still very tender

"What do you know? The hardest thing in the world to offend is not the emperor, but the 'imperial power,' Even if the power of the Great Golden Peng is tilted towards the government and the opposition, and if you want to seize the throne, you must think twice, otherwise you will end up betraying your relatives if you don't pay attention to it. ”

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion said again: "Besides, the Yulan Emperor is really as weak as it seems on the surface? I can't see it, at least the three most powerful arms of the Yulan Empire are in the hands of the Yulan Emperor." If the Great Golden Peng King and the Yulan Emperor fight, it is not yet known who will kill the deer."

"In my opinion, if the King of the Great Golden Peng wants to seize the throne, he needs to play at least three moves. ”

"The first step is to control the four-grade civilization, three-grade civilization, second-grade civilization, and first-grade civilization around the Yulan Empire. “

"Although the strength of a small civilized country is far inferior to that of the Yulan Empire, it is superior to a large number, and if it can be integrated together, it will be a powerful force. ”

"The main thing is that these small civilizations are far away from the imperial city, and they are also the least affected by the imperial power and the easiest to control. Judging from the current situation, the King of the Golden Peng has already secretly taken this move almost completely. ”

"The second step is to win over the princes in the court and grasp the military power of the Yulan Empire. ”

"The third step is to control the major forces in the Imperial City. ”

"When these three steps are completed, it is when the King of Jinpeng attacks the Emperor Yulan Of course, it is definitely not an easy task to complete these three steps, and the situation will definitely not be clear in a few years. ”

Ning Qiancheng laughed and said: "If the Great Golden Peng King wants to seize the throne, our Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion will definitely go to help the fist, and we have long wanted to kill the Yulan Emperor to avenge the third brother." ”

"Reckless"

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion snorted coldly.

Ning Qiancheng immediately put away his laughter and grinned, but he didn't dare to refute the Sword Pavilion Marquis

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion said, "Xiaochuan, what do you think?"

Ning Xiaochuan said: "The Yulan Empire is vast and rich, and its territory spans a vast area, as large as every domain, as small as every town, there are imperial court garrisons. Even if the King of the Great Golden Peng controls the soldiers and horses of the world, it is definitely not an easy task to seize the throne, but it may also cause chaos in the world, and finally give the empire to people with foreign surnames in vain.

"If the King of the Great Golden Peng wants to seize the throne, he will definitely win over as many major dynasties, sects, families, and martial arts as possible. ”

"The Great Golden Peng King instructed the thirty Sanpin civilizations in the west to gather a large army and gather on the frontier, which is to send a signal to all the rulers of the Yulan Empire - everyone can start to take sides, are you on the side of the Yulan Emperor, or on the side of the Great Golden Peng King?"

Ning Xiaochuan continued: "Actually, whether it is the Emperor Yulan as the emperor or the Great Jinpeng King as the emperor, it will not be beneficial to our Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion. Only when the two tigers are fighting, quietly developing the power of the Hou Mansion, this is the foundation of the foothold. ”

"When the Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion becomes stronger, both the Yulan Emperor and the Great Golden Peng King will only take the initiative to woo us, not to destroy us. ”

Ning Qiancheng said: "What Xiaochuan means is that none of us support it?"

"At least for the time being, we need to remain neutral and not offend anyone. As a last resort, don't stand in line lightly. Once you stand on the wrong team, you will lose all the games" Ning Xiaochuan said.

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion nodded and said, "Xiao Chuan has the talent to dominate the world."

Ning Xiaochuan said: "Master Hou, dare to ask about the acquisition of the mine, how is it going?"

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion smiled mysteriously: "I have personally talked to the Qilin King, if it was before, he would definitely not sell it, but recently that piece of mine has been targeted by the Ghost Mountain Villa, and it has become a piece of chicken ribs, and I have easily talked about it." However, Ghost Hill is a big problem, and if we can't solve them, we won't be able to mine even if we buy the mine. ”

The corners of Ning Xiaochuan's mouth moved, but in the end, he still didn't tell the Sword Pavilion Marquis the truth.

He plans to truly control and establish the Ghost Mountain Villa, and then slowly tell the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion

"I know a big man in Ghost Hills, and I have a fateful relationship with him, and I can talk to him. Ning Xiaochuan said.

"Is that true?" said the Sword Pavilion Marquis.

Naturally, he couldn't have thought that Ning Xiaochuan was the owner of the now famous Ghost Mountain Villa.

Because, Ning Xiaochuan is still too young, even if he is talented and talented, it is absolutely impossible to become a boss of the evil way.

Ning Xiaochuan nodded and said, "Has Master Hou heard about the Situ family?"

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion said, "The Situ family is the largest refining family in the Imperial City. However, I heard that some time ago, the Situ family's forner and fornicator were all looted by the Ghost Villa, and I am afraid that it has been greatly damaged. ”

Ning Xiaochuan said with a smile: "Those forciners and forciners were all purchased by me at a high price from that friend's hands, and they were used to establish their own forensic base belonging to the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, and to prepare for the establishment of the Sword Palace. ”

"Good"

The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion slapped his palm on the table with excitement and laughed, "When I saw you establishing the Divine Sword Palace, I thought it would take you at least five years to develop and grow. Now that I have obtained this batch of excellent forensic masters and forciners, I am afraid that it will only take a year for the Divine Sword Palace to begin to see its scale and become famous in the Imperial City. ”

"The establishment of the Sword God Palace is not only a famous imperial city, but also a megatron and a holy place for the world's first refinement. Imperial City, it's just the first step," Ning Xiaochuan said calmly.
