"Although the courtiers had their own support, they were all based on fair and honest reasons. If there is a clear lack www.biquge.info of morality on the part of the people who support them, then they will immediately give up their support. Just like the second prince Meng Qi back then, there are not many supporters in the DPRK and China, but once he was attacked by the queen, he was still deposed as the crown prince......"

"Brother Chen's meaning...... This is the so-called gentle means?" Bai Ya frowned and asked, "But it's not easy to find out the obvious mistakes of competitors within a month or two, and besides, Meng Qi's incident back then was just an example, so wouldn't all five of them have the handle of immorality?"

"Haha, since those five people are involved in the fratricidal competition, then there must be no good people who must have done illegal things. Chen Ming sneered and said, "They didn't decide to participate in the competition for the heir temporarily, but I'm afraid that they already had this plan from the day the prince was deposed."

But to participate in the competition, you must have your own team, strategists and killers are indispensable, and you usually have to work hard to win over the courtiers, and there is no huge money and food resources, how can you support it?"

"Money and food are indeed a problem, it is indeed not enough for them to raise the dead and win over the courtiers...... "Bai Ya hesitated and said, "But they should also have other inputs, right?"

"Brother Bai is right, I have also heard the name of the genius of the sixth prince, but there are two sides to everything. Chen Ming said with a wry smile, "If the people make money in business, it is naturally nothing, and the business of the royal family members will become competing with the people for profit in the mouths of some people." Even if you sell your own inventions, you will be attacked for being a fan of tricks and tricks, and not doing a good job. ”

Bai Ya couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and was speechless for a while, sure enough, it was an official word, and it made sense no matter how he said it.

When discussing the sword in Huashan, his poisonous tongue can stab a person to death, but if he fights with these court bureaucrats, it is simply a small thing, and he will be choked to death.

"It seems that Brother Bai understands that as long as those five people have the heart to fight for succession, mistakes will be made out of nothing. In addition, the usual act of accumulating money, whether it is above board or taking by force, will leave a handle on people, and it is illegal evidence of immorality at this time. Chen Ming said with a smile.

"This kind of handle usually doesn't matter, but as long as it is amplified and twisted by someone with a heart, sesame seeds can be turned into watermelons, so a certain guess may be the key to them beating other competitors. ”

"This ...... Is it reliable?" Bai Ya asked suspiciously, "The courtiers are not stupid, if they turn black and white upside down and exaggerate, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating, right?"

"No, because most of the illegal evidence can't reach the court. And when it comes to the court, it is just a passing scene, indicating that the target of the attack has lost, and some people have gone to the well. Chen Ming said with a smile.

"Brother Chen is saying...... This process of burying each other's pits is actually the focus of the struggle between the major forces?" Bai Ya reacted quickly and immediately came to his senses.

"Yes, the method and the result are extremely simple, but the shady scenes are chilling. Chen Ming sighed, "Connections, resources, and force are indispensable, first rely on connections and intelligence spies to dig deep into the opponent's illegal secrets, then plan by the strategists, and finally let the minions under your command execute and obtain."

During this period, coercion, inducement, kidnapping, killing, and deception were used to all extents, and even many innocent officials and ordinary people were implicated. But this is also a path that an emperor must take, and if he is reluctant to cry at home, he will cry all the way. The king is mainly the benevolence of a woman, which is even more terrible than the faint king. ”

When Chen Ming said this, he paused and said with a smile, "Presumably, Brother Bai and others are not used to this, otherwise there would be no Di Dao City." ”

"Brother Chen praised it falsely!" Bai Ya sighed and shook his head lightly, "How could I not understand this kind of truth, I just can't see the tragedy in front of me, and I am just willful." ”

The two were silent for a while, and Bai Ya smiled bitterly: "According to what Brother Chen said, I am afraid that in the eyes of those five people, I am only a verbal supporter and supervisor, right?"

Before Liu Yu descended from Baiya, he once told him that during the struggle for succession, the martial artists of the sect would not care about each other's identities, and they could kill each other without worrying about retaliation.

Regardless of success or failure, it will not damage the foundation of the Xianwu Sect, at most it will only lose some resource benefits. This makes it difficult for the martial artists of the sect to fight to the death, but I am afraid that those five will not entrust the core affairs to them.

Bai Ya is the best example, he may work hard for Qingcheng in Huashan. But if you want him to work hard for the sixth prince Meng Min, it is basically impossible, even if Meng Min once interceded for him in Ling Tiange.

Besides, during the period of the competition, although the martial artists of the sect said that they had no scruples about making a move, there should not be many people who could really do this. It's like if Bai Ya bumps into Chen Ming, the two will have to deal with the tasks they do hastily because of their past friendship, and they won't fight to the death for the employer behind them.

In the same way, most of the Xianwu sects in Yizhou are in the same breath, pulling out radishes and bringing out the mud, and tearing their faces are always a minority.

"Well, most of the sect martial artists are just helpers in this play, and they don't need us to give advice, and they can't participate in the core secrets. Chen Ming shrugged helplessly.

"Of course, there are also Xianwu sects with relatively large investments, such as Emei, they are the biggest reliance of the second prince Meng Qi, and they should be able to exert some strength. And like you Qingcheng, you have to pick a Meng Min who advocates the Confucian Ram School, then you will only use the competition for the disciples as a touchstone. ”

Bai Ya couldn't help but smile, no wonder the major Immortal Martial Sects were all small characters. In fact, ethics and morality aside, this kind of succession event is indeed very temperable.

As the great teacher Ma said, "From the day capital is born, every pore is dripping with blood and filth!", and it is even more appropriate to replace capital with politics here.

It's a pity that the light must always be set off by the darkness, and the younger generation of sect warriors can't just be ostriches.

The new generation of Shu kings will achieve nirvana in painful fratricide, and they must also witness these dirty deeds with their own eyes, and then grow into the pillars of the sect and the whole human race.

After Chen Ming's explanation, Bai Ya roughly understood what he was going to do in this battle for succession, and his mood couldn't help but feel a lot heavier.

"Brother Bai, it's your place now, let's talk to someone about Huashan's sword!" Chen Ming put down his wine glass and looked at Bai Ya with bright eyes.

"Okay!" Bai Ya smiled, Chen Ming was a few years older than him, and if he missed this Huashan Sword Debate, he would be more than thirty years old in the next session. With his strength, it is indeed quite a pity.

......

"Senior brother, senior brother!"

When Bai Ya was sleeping in a daze, he suddenly felt his body shake, and when he opened his eyes, he met Ji Nan's exaggerated black eyes.

"Senior brother, why are you sleeping here, you two won't drink all night, right?" Ji Nan pursed his lips, feeling dissatisfied, of course he was not dissatisfied with Bai Ya drinking too much, but dissatisfied with being driven back to sleep last night.

"Oh, where is Senior Brother Chen Ming?" Bai Ya pressed his temples, only to feel a faint pain in his head, and he knew that he was still a little hungover.

"So-and-so is here, Brother Bai should also come and wash his face. ”

Chen Ming's wry smile came from not far behind him, and Bai Ya looked back and found that he was standing by the well, being supervised by the puffing Zeng Hui to wash his face with well water.

The cold well water shocked Bai Ya's spirit, although looking at the sky, it was only just after the fifth watch, and most people were still asleep, but in their martial arts, it was already time for morning exercises.

"What kind of grappling hand does Brother Chen practice, it looks like a bit of a monkey-shaped fist?"

There is no special martial arts training ground in the courtyard where Bai Ya and the others are located, and they can't show their hands and feet, so they can only stand on the pile and practice gymnastics and fitness boxing methods similar to the Five Elements Boxing.

However, he found that Chen Ming didn't seem to be limited by the venue, practicing a very formal set of grappling, and the number of moves was very subtle, and it was definitely not gymnastics.

"Brother Bai has good eyesight, this is the hook and sickle finger of the spirit monkey of my Panlong faction, which integrates grabbing, pointing and cutting, and is created by five generations of ancestors to observe the golden silk spirit monkey. ”

Chen Ming suddenly did a backflip, and the index and middle fingers of his right hand hooked the ground, and he saw a two-finger-wide ravine silently exposed on the hard bluestone slab, and the inside was as smooth as a mirror, as if it had been sandpapered.

Bai Ya raised his eyebrows, and it was easy to dig a trench on the ground with his fingers, but it was not easy to achieve a level of smoothness like a mirror, which required a high degree of condensation of his fingers in an instant.

He instinctively sensed that the power of this fingering technique was terrifying, and the Mixed Yuan Iron Cloth Shirt that had been refined to perfection might not be able to withstand it.

"It's a pity that Brother Chen didn't go to Chenghua Mountain last time, otherwise he would have been able to carry forward this fingering. Bai Ya praised sincerely.

"Hehe, there is no time in life to force it, if you can enter the situation in the future, you will have the opportunity to go to Huashan again and meet the heroes of the world. Chen Ming took a deep breath longingly.

"Senior brother, the palace people outside the courtyard brought breakfast, and told us to finish eating and go to Yazhuyuan to play early, saying that the five princes and princesses will be present. Zeng Hui came from outside carrying two food boxes.

"Wow, there are so many pastries ......" Ji Nan moved his index finger when he saw the food box, his eyes lit up, and he reached out to grab it.

"Wash your hands!" Zeng Hui rolled his eyes, "snapped", and slapped him.

"Hehe!" Bai Ya and Chen Ming looked at each other and smiled.

"Let the two brothers smile, seeing this kid, it reminds the little sister of Brother Cen, I don't know how grandpa is doing......" Zeng Hui's eyes were confused, revealing a little melancholy.

The younger brother Cen in her mouth is Zeng Cen, the only son of Zeng Xian who was sentenced by Langzhong Tong, a few years younger than Zeng Hui, and he can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart. It's just that Zeng Hui has now embarked on the road of martial arts, and if there is no accident, they are already separated by immortals, and the distance between them will only get farther and farther away.

"It's been more than three years, and I don't know if the ghost fox has gotten his wish, and whether he has had a good time in the Panshan Sect......"

Thinking of what happened in Langzhong back then, Bai Ya couldn't help but flash a shadow in his mind.
