Chapter 692: All in the game
For the other forces, Chang Feng also gave a clear answer, the other six countries, the five sects and the four families, and the three foreign clans, more than half of them supported the three kings Xiang Wenle, which can be clearly judged from the traces of the branch tendencies of the various forces located in Yunmeng City.
If a vote is held according to the tradition of the Chu State, Xiang Huayang has little hope of winning.
Seeing Xiang Huayang's brows furrowed, Xiang Zitong patted Xiang Huayang's shoulder and said, "Brother, don't be discouraged, isn't the matter inconclusive? Even if there is a conclusion, he is only a crown prince, not the king of Chu." β
"Brother Xiang, what Zitong said makes sense. With a concurrence sentence, Chang Feng then said: "Brother Xiang, the Alliance Elders Council has studied the definite laws of the ten generations of kings of your Chu State, and it is not for nothing that those with little external support eventually become the kings of Chu, and there are as many as three times. β
Hearing Chang Feng say this, Xiang Huayang shook his head with a wry smile and said, "After all, the chance is smaller!"
Knowing that Xiang Huayang was a little anxious in his heart, Chang Feng sorted out his thoughts and then said: "Brother Xiang, I have thought about this matter of the crown prince of Chu repeatedly, and there are a few words that I don't know whether to say or not?"
"Brother Chang, what else can't be said between you and me?" Xiang Huayang gestured to Xiang Zitong in response.
"Brother Xiang, brother thinks that you and that Xiang Wenle are both in the game. Seeing Xiang Huayang frowning and pricking up his ears, Chang Feng then said:
"Brother Xiang, after thinking about it, my brother felt that the choice of the crown prince of Chu was a fog deliberately created by the king of Chu. β
"The support of external forces has a limited influence on the choice of your crown prince of Chu, which can almost be completely ignored, because no matter who succeeds you and that Wenle as the king of Chu, how you should interact with external forces, the only difference is that there is a bias, even if the current king of Chu is the same. β
"The princes and important ministers within the state of Chu have little influence on the choice of the crown prince, because above the court, there are always a few people who firmly support one side, once the new king is determined, once the son of heaven and a courtier, many people will change to the faΓ§ade, even if the elders of the Chu royal court and the king of Chu have the real right to decide. β
Hearing Chang Feng say this, Xiang Huayang frowned, Xiang Zitong stomped his feet anxiously and said, "Chang Feng, don't you know these big brothers you are talking about, but ...... However, when the Council of Elders and the Father decided on the heir, they always had to consider the attitudes of internal and external forces. β
"Zitong, you and Brother Xiang are both stable people, but on top of this matter, they are messing up, which shows the power of King Chu. β
Facing the anxious Xiang Zitong, Chang Feng smiled slightly, and the angry Xiang Zitong stomped his feet, but was stopped by Xiang Huayang's eyes, and Chang Feng then continued:
Combined with the analysis of the Alliance Elders, the brothers also thought about it, although the new kings of the Seven Kingdoms of Mountains and Seas have different ways of choosing, but your Chu State is a very special one, because no matter how much the choice of the new kings of the Chu State was before, it was the word "potential" that played a decisive role. β
"Potential, what potential? Chang Feng, don't play any dumb riddles, say it quickly, say it quickly. Xiang Zitong was really anxious, she really couldn't keep calm when it came to the future events of his most beloved eldest brother.
"Since the Seven Kingdoms have determined the position of the leader of the human race in the Seven Kingdoms for the hegemony of the Shanhai Kingdom, the king of the Chu State will be replaced in as many as a thousand years, and as little as four or five hundred years, but no matter how it is replaced, the most important thing for the Chu State to determine the candidate for the throne is the general trend of the Immortal Cultivation Realm in the Shanhai Continent. β
"When the immortal cultivation realm of the Shanhai Continent was stable and stable, most of the successor Chu kings were prosperous and stable, and the national policy was extremely kind, but when the Shanhai Continent was in crisis, most of the Chu kings who chose the next generation had a competitive heart and dared to participate in the disputes in the Shanhai Continent. β
"The seven generations of Chu kings Xingge are gentle, he doesn't like to fight, he was very unfavored before he ascended the throne, and he didn't even get the position of crown prince, but in the end, he got the full support of the Council of Elders and the six generations of Chu kings, and defeated the people who competed and successfully ascended the throne. β
"The fourteenth king of Chu is a fierce man, competitive, decisive in killing, not to mention the crown prince, he is not the reserve candidate for the king of Chu at all, but in the end he successfully ascended the throne, all because of the outbreak of the great demon disaster of the era of his rule, and the fourteenth generation of the king of Chu fully participated in it to ensure the strong position of the Chu state. β
"There are also sixteen generations, nineteen generations of Chu kings, twenty-three generations, and twenty-seven generations...... Brother Xiang, if you are interested, you can go to your Chu State Frontier Building to take a look at the life records of the Chu kings of the past dynasties, and you should understand the meaning of what the brother just said. β
After Chang Feng finished speaking, he took two sips of spiritual tea, and Xiang Zitong and Xiang Huayang, who had calmed down, both fell into thought.
Both of them are psychic people, and it didn't take long for them to obviously think of the key, but it was not so clear for a while, and after frowning slightly, Xiang Huayang then arched his hand and said:
"Brother Chang, it's not that this king is disrespectful to his ancestors, it's really ...... Hey, you really haven't noticed these kings you said, please point them out directly?"
Regarding Xiang Huayang's reaction, Chang Feng was not much surprised.
It can be said that Xiang Huayang is in the game, whether it is himself or his thinkers, he only sees the present and the future, not to mention studying the past, even if he focuses on the support of a few living ancestors, how can he pay attention to the past.
And such a thing, out of responsibility for the state of Chu, the kings of Chu in the past dynasties will definitely not make it clear.
With a calm smile, Chang Feng continued: "Brother Xiang, the Fallen Yang Alliance has contacted the King of Chu many times, hoping that he will provide some convenience for the activities of the Fallen Yang Alliance in the Chu State, but the Chu State has refused and there is no room for negotiation. β
"On the surface, the King of Chu is doing this to put an end to any contact with the Yang Alliance, and to avoid leaving any tricks in the Shanhai Kingdom. β
"But the King of Chu is a very thoughtful person, on the one hand, he clearly refused to contact the Yang Alliance, and on the other hand, he sent you and Xiang Wenle into the land of Nanban and the land of Qiyue respectively to participate in the dispute. β
"The previous clearly refused to have anything to do with the Fallen Yang Alliance, and on the other hand, it was to send the two heirs who are most likely to become the future King of Chu to participate in the chaos created by the Fallen Yang Alliance, Brother Xiang, have you considered the implicit meaning?"
Xiang Huayang shook his head slightly, maybe he had thought about it, but he had been busy competing for the throne of the King of Chu and had not thought deeply about the connotation.
Chang Feng continued: "After the King of Chu sent you, you went to Nanban to participate in it with all your might, and your third brother walked around the land of Qiyue in order to compete for the throne of the King of Chu, and returned to Yunmeng City after only half a year and refused to leave half a step. β
"Brother Xiang, you once said that the King of Chu severely reprimanded your third brother on this matter, obviously, the King of Chu is very dissatisfied with your third brother's actions. β
"Yes, Chang Feng, what you said is right, my father lost his temper that time, and even slapped Xiang Wenle. Hearing Chang Feng say this, Xiang Zitong hurriedly agreed.
"Zitong, the King of Chu treats that Wenle like this, which shows that he is still quite optimistic about your third brother, otherwise he would not be furious. Seeing that Xiang Zitong's eyes flashed with joy, Chang Feng shook his head helplessly.
The external performance of such a major event as the struggle for the crown prince is very different from the meaning contained inside.
The King of Chu was extremely dissatisfied with Xiang Wenle's approach, and even burst out, which shows that the King of Chu is quite optimistic about him, and has even been cultivated as the future King of Chu, which is not a good thing for Xiang Huayang.
"Brother Xiang, it can be seen from this incident that the King of Chu has a clear understanding of the general trend of the Shanhai Continent, at least on the issue of the Inverted Yang Alliance, according to what he sent your brothers to participate in the Inverted Yang Alliance, the King of Chu has the intention to lead the State of Chu to participate in the general trend of the Shanhai Continent, but it is not himself, but the future King of Chu. β
"The reason why this is the case is mostly because the form of the Shanhai Continent is very unclear now, and although the Yang Alliance has become a climate, it is hidden in the shadows after all, and it is just an organization, and it is difficult to predict the victory or defeat of the Shanhai Country. β
"Judging from the current form, the Shanhai Kingdom still has a firm advantage, as long as you find an alliance and a foothold, you can destroy it in an instant, the Shanhai Continent or the Shanhai Kingdom dominates the overall situation, such a big thing, the King of Chu naturally does not dare to suppress the entire Chu State, but he is not idle, your brothers are the best means. β
