Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.

During this time, there was an endless stream of people giving gifts in front of Su Luoheng's door, and the forces behind these people were basically the major princes and aristocratic classes in the court. There are countless curiosities.

Although the identity of the Snow Emperor has not been disclosed, this is only relative.

The relationship between Su Luoheng and Emperor Xue has long been an open secret among princes and nobles.

No matter where they are, the strong are objects worth wooing and approaching. And the reason why these people frequently show favor to themselves is to befriend Su Luoheng and the Snow Emperor behind him.

If you can get the friendship of an Extreme Douluo, the benefits will be self-evident. Although it does not directly affect the decision-making of the empire, it still occupies a considerable part of the weight.

And in the subsequent contact with these people, Su Luoheng also learned a lot of information about the Sun and Moon Court. Of course, the most mentioned issue is the crown prince.

I have to admit that Xu Tianran's position is too stable.

First, nearly a quarter of the officials in the court chose to side with him.

Secondly, the four major Protector Hand Soul Master groups on the legion are already one and a half firmly in his hands.

These two forces are Xu Tianran's biggest capital.

So even though he is now crippled, he can still sit firmly as the crown prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, and no one will shake it.

But......

As a prince, no one wants to be subservient.

Even if the chances are slim, they don't want to give up the opportunity to inherit.

If you want to ascend to the throne of the Sun and Moon Empire, it will definitely not work without the support of a strong force. And now, in addition to the support of the Four Soul Mentor Groups, the Imperial Hall, and the Mingde Hall, there is now another Snow Emperor.

So now these princes of the Sun and Moon Empire are frequently wooing themselves, and their goal is nothing more than to use the power of the Snow Emperor Extreme Douluo level to increase their own political capital.

Although Su Luoheng also wanted to find someone to cooperate with Xu Tianran.

However, the choice of allies needs to be carefully considered, after all, people are unpredictable, and it is difficult to guarantee once it comes to interests. My own dad is a stark example of the opposite.

The premise of cooperation is, first of all, that both parties have a certain understanding.

And the information collected from the outside world is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and none of these princes is something he really understands. So after secretly observing, Su Luoheng did not reach a cooperation with them.

Think about it......

In the final analysis, in the Sun and Moon royal family, Su Luoheng only understands that person: although this person's identity is a little deviated, he is a genuine royal family.

I can test my attitude from him.

……

……

The central area of Mingdu, Hengwang's Mansion.

At this moment, the door of the treasure house in the palace opened, and several servants were constantly going back and forth to the palace treasury, carrying one large box after another to the courtyard. And a special person is responsible for counting the quantity.

After a while, a large number of boxes had piled up in the courtyard.

It was full of treasures collected by the royal palace.

「……」

Xu Jinyu stood in the courtyard and watched quietly.

"Your Highness, the statistics are ready."

At this moment, the palace housekeeper Chen Lao came over with the list.

"There are still more than 2,000 catties of all kinds of precious metal materials collected by the palace. These include Purple Gold Copper, Heavenly Spirit Silver, Stygian Crystal, Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron, and Star-Moon Alloy ......

"That's all the inventory in the palace."

After a pause, Elder Chen looked at Xu Jinyu, "Your Highness, how much do you think we can take out this time?"

"Half of it."

Xu Jinyu spoke out indifferently.

"When you're ready, send it to Su Luoheng."

"Half ......"

When Old Chen heard this, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

You must know that these are all the savings of the Hengwang Mansion, and it is the old prince

It's easy to save a family fund. Although Su Luoheng has Extreme Douluo behind him, it is too much to give half of it at once, right?

Old Chen hesitated for a moment and pondered, "Your Highness, could there be too many of these things? We don't know the attitude of Su Luoheng's side, and if we don't get a response, wouldn't it be ...... if we didn't get a response."

"Uncle Chen, I know you're worried about something."

Xu Jinyu sighed lightly when she heard this, and said slowly.

"You should know your father's situation very well. If we don't want my Heng Palace's Mansion to be divided by them, Su Luoheng and the Extreme Douluo behind him are the only chance we have now."

"It just so happens that I have something to do with Su Luoheng before, and there is also this relationship between my predecessors, so it's worth my bet. So we need to show enough sincerity, and that's our stepping stone."

「……」

A look of determination appeared between Xu Jinyu's eyebrows.

"Uncle Chen, this matter will be handled by you."

"My subordinates understand."

Chen Lao was silent for a long time, and bowed his head.

He understood Xu Jinyu's dilemma.

Since the old prince became ill, the situation in their Hengwang Mansion has been getting worse and worse, and the princes and grandsons who were previously on the pole have all changed their faces, and they all want to get a piece of the palace from the palace.

As the saying goes, people are warm and cold, and the world is hot and cold.

The trees fall and the macaques scatter, and the grass on the walls falls with the wind.

Internal and external troubles, such a situation is too difficult for the entire Hengwang Mansion. In order to keep the inheritance left by the old prince, His Royal Highness is unwilling to give up whenever there is a little hope.

Chen Lao understands this truth.

And all he can do now is do what he is told.

「……」

"Your Highness, Su Luoheng is here to visit."

At this moment, the guards outside the mansion walked quickly to the inner courtyard, and immediately bowed their knees when they saw Xu Jinyu.

Su Luoheng?

How did he come to the palace?

Xu Jinyu was stunned for a moment, looking surprised.

For a moment, countless thoughts passed through his mind, and he asked at the same time.

"Where now?"

"I'm waiting in the hall."

"Let him in, and I'll be there later."

"Yes!"

「……」

Xu Jinyu's eyes were slightly condensed.

Su Luoheng's unexpected visit this time was only afraid that there was another purpose.

Perhaps, it is also an opportunity for them to protect the royal mansion!

Thinking of this, a trace of fluctuation flashed in Xu Jinyu's eyes, and after ordering his subordinates to prepare those metal materials as soon as possible, he walked quickly to the front hall.

……

……

At the same time, the antechamber.

Su Luoheng was waiting for Xu Jinyu to arrive.

That's right, Su Luoheng's so-called candidate is Xu Jinyu.

Although he is not the prince of the dynasty, he also has the right to inherit the throne.

And he also nominally controls the Dreadclaw Soul Master Legion. Although it has now been infiltrated by various forces, the Soul Master Group is still nominally under the control of the Hengwang Mansion, and there are still some loyal people in the legion.

The most important thing is that I know something about Xu Jinyu, and the Jingyang Mountains and the soul guide shop have intersected before. Moreover, his own teacher has a very good personal relationship with Hengwangfu, and he has a relationship with each other.

From the teacher's side, Su Luoheng learned that the old prince of Hengwangfu was afraid that he would not be able to last long, and Xu Jinyu was facing a very bad situation now. This is the time when someone needs to help in the snow.

So Su Luoheng planned to contact Xu Jinyu to try.

Check out his reality and see if you can work with him.

……

……

Not much.

Xu Jinyu walked into the hall and sat in the main seat.

Because the two have been in contact, their relationship is not strangers, and they chatted casually after saying hello.

「…

…」

After the two exchanged pleasantries, it was time to get down to business. Xu Jinyu first waved his hand to signal the left and right attendants to retreat, and then looked at Su Luoheng, who was sitting beside him.

"I don't know why Brother Luoheng suddenly visited today?"

Su Luoheng smiled and said warmly and calmly, "I specially thank Brother Xu today. During this time away from Sun Moon Academy, I would like to thank the care shop for their help."

"It's a trivial matter, why worry about it."

Xu Jinyu waved his hand and said, "If it weren't for the rescue of you and your predecessors in the Jingyang Mountain Range, I am afraid that I would have been buried in the belly of the wolf, how can I still have today?"

"It's just a gesture."

Su Luoheng smiled and shook his head.

「……」

"Your Highness, what you want."

As he spoke, the attendant walked into the hall and presented the gift box.

After placing it in front of Su Luoheng, he respectfully retired.

"Brother Xu, what do you mean by this?"

"Luoheng, this is for you."

"I heard that after you returned to the academy some time ago, I planned to pay a visit, and I have prepared all these gifts for you. I didn't think you would have come to me first, so you should take this thing."

"Brother Xu, between you and me, you don't need to ......."

"Luoheng, you might as well take a look."

Before Su Luoheng could refuse, Xu Jinyu had already taken out the blue space crystal stone and handed it to Su Luoheng.

The spiritual power wrapped the spar, and seeing the large amount of precious metals piled up inside, Rao is Su Luoheng couldn't help but gasp.

"Brother Xu, your gift is too valuable......

"Brother Luoheng, you can accept it, it is useless to leave these things in our palace treasury, and if they are handed over to you, the soul master, it can be regarded as making the best use of them."

「……」

In the end, at Xu Jinyu's insistence.

Su Luoheng still accepted this generous gift.

"If it weren't for the complexity of this time, this gift would have been delivered to you a long time ago."

As she spoke, Xu Jinyu sighed and looked sad.

Hearing this, Su Luoheng took the opportunity to ask, "On the way to the palace, the younger brother also heard some rumors. I just don't know what the prince's current physical condition is? The dyers have also been paying attention."

Xu Jinyu sighed, and a hint of darkness flashed in her eyes.

"I'm tired of dyeing my predecessors. It's just that my father's health has recently begun to deteriorate, and now he has no medicine. Fear...... It won't last long."

"Brother Xu, you don't have to be too pessimistic. Things could not turn around until the last minute." Su Luoheng comforted.

「……」

Hearing this, Xu Jinyu smiled bitterly and laughed at herself.

"Brother Luoheng is not afraid of your jokes, since my father is critically ill, my Heng Wangfu can be regarded as having experienced the warmth and coldness of human affection and the cold of the world. How many people in this Ming capital now want my father to live?"

"Brother Luoheng to tell you the truth, apart from you and your predecessors, I can't find anyone to trust outside."

「……」

Su Luoheng's eyes flashed slightly, thoughtful.

Obviously, he had already heard Xu Jinyu's off-string sound.

Then, you also need to release some signals on your side.

"I didn't expect that I would make Brother Xu trust him so much."

Thinking of this, Su Luoheng took the opportunity to speak, "Speaking of which, although many members of the royal family have been friends with me recently, I don't know much about them. On the royal side, you're the only one I know the basics."

"So ......"

"We have to help each other, don't you think?"

"Yes, Brother Luoheng is right!"

Hearing this, Xu Jinyu's eyes lit up.

They are all smart people, and they naturally understand what the other party is saying.

At the moment, the two tacitly agreed not to continue to delve into this topic, but both of them were each other

Experiencing the cooperation intention released by the other party, the atmosphere of conversation has become more harmonious.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

"It's noon, huh?"

"I didn't expect us to talk for so long."

Xu Jinyu glanced at the time and invited, "It's time to eat, Brother Luoheng or else you will dine with me?" The chefs in my house are all imperial chefs in the palace, and their skills are superb."

"No, no, no, I'll go back and eat."

Su Luoheng waved his hand.

"In that case, I'll send you."

"I can't have fun today, but I will meet again next time."

"There's going to be a chance, and it won't be long."

「……」

Immediately, Xu Jinyu sent Su Luoheng out of the mansion.

The first conversation between the two ended with a conversation of great pleasure. Although none of them have said it explicitly, they have already determined their intention to cooperate with each other.

Because cooperation is certainly not something that can be determined overnight.

Therefore, it is enough to confirm the intention of cooperation between each other today.

As for the promises and conditions, it will be necessary to wait for the next conversation. And the time between the next conversation is the time for them to think about the conditions of cooperation and commitments.

「……」

Leaving King Heng's Mansion, Su Luoheng walked on the road.

Originally, he didn't want to get involved in the royal turmoil, but most of the time people always couldn't help themselves and were carried forward by the great waves of the times. It's like I have to access the Sun and Moon Dynasty for the safety of my teacher.

Although I didn't want to, I had to do it.

Unless, you can control absolute power.

Maybe it's possible in the future, but for now it's just a step-by-step process.

Use everything you have at your disposal to do your best to reverse the teacher's death.

……

……

A week later.

It's the annual enrollment season again, and today's Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy is very lively. Enrollment has not yet begun, and a large number of new students are already gathering outside the door to prepare for the assessment.

According to rough estimates, the number of people who have died this year will be two to three percent more than in previous years.

Because in addition to the original source of the Sun and Moon Empire, there are also many students from the Three Kingdoms of Douluo here. They all came to sign up for the assessment of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Su Luoheng's feat of single-handedly taking on the entire Shrek Inner Court has been widely spread within the Douluo Three Kingdoms, causing many people to become interested in the Soul Guide and the Sun and Moon Academy.

Coupled with the recent decline in the reputation of Shrek Academy, etc., the superposition of many reasons has led to the flow of some students into the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

It can only be said that some people shoot themselves in the foot.

The face was not regained, but became a stepping stone for others.
