Douluo Dalu: White Tiger

Chapter 283 Noble Cooperation
Ye Xuan looked at Ye Ming, tapped his fingers on the armrest, making a clicking sound, and slowly said: "I am very interested in the position of emperor, so I want to cooperate with you nobles."

"You nobles have already seen the Queen's attitude. It is obvious that she is suppressing you nobles and supporting the common people. This is just the first step. I am afraid that there will be no nobles in the Wuhun Empire in the future."

"By cooperating with me, you nobles can get everything you want. It is not impossible to even share the Wuhun Empire with you nobles. Duke Ye Ming, how do you feel?"

Ye Ming's eyes became uncertain when he heard this, but he soon patted the armrest of the chair, stood up, pointed at Ye Xuan, and said, "Your Holiness, our Duke's Mansion has always been loyal to the Wuhun Empire. If you come to our Duke's Mansion to cooperate, I'm afraid you have come to the wrong place."

Clap, clap, clap. A round of applause sounded. Ye Xuan stood up while clapping his hands and said calmly: "I originally thought that Duke Ye Ming was a smart man, but now it seems that Duke Ye Ming is not a smart man. Since you are unwilling to cooperate, then your Duke's Mansion does not need to exist."

The White Tiger Martial Spirit instantly appeared behind Ye Xuan and completed the possession. Six soul rings of purple, gold, black and red kept flashing on Ye Xuan's body.

Ye Xuan grabbed Duke Ye Ming's neck with one hand and lifted him up. A strong killing intent appeared in his eyes. He slowly said, "Duke Ye Ming, I will give you a chance to say your last words."

Ye Ming looked at the strong murderous intent in Ye Xuan's eyes, and was surprised, then happy. He immediately said, "Your Holiness, we at the Duke's Mansion are very willing to cooperate with Your Holiness, but I don't know how confident Your Holiness is that we can succeed."

"Cooperate with me? Why should I believe you? Isn't your Duke's Mansion loyal to the Wuhun Empire?" Ye Xuan chuckled, and the strength in his hands increased by three points. The murderous intent in his eyes almost turned into reality.

"We, the Duke's Mansion, can contact all the nobles in the empire on behalf of His Holiness the Pope. With the help of our nobles, no matter how confident His Holiness the Pope is, his chances of winning will be greatly increased!" Ye Ming's face gradually turned red, and breathing became very difficult.

"I'll give you a chance to say one word and make me believe you, otherwise your Duke's Mansion will no longer need to exist. After all, if this matter gets out, people will die." Ye Xuan increased the strength in his hands by another three points, but the murderous intent in his eyes did not diminish at all.

"Your Holiness, I can send someone to contact all the nobles in the empire and ask them to come to our Duke's Palace to discuss what Your Holiness said. And Your Holiness, you still have a subordinate. You can let your subordinate go with the people I send, and I will stay in the Duke's Palace as Your Holiness's hostage." Ye Ming felt that his brain was a little dizzy, and it was very difficult for him to speak, but there was joy in his eyes.

"Find a suitable place for secret discussions in your Duke's Mansion, and don't play any tricks. Otherwise, I may not die, but your Duke's Mansion will definitely disappear." Ye Xuan retracted his martial soul and released his hand that was pinching Ye Ming.

Ye Ming fell to the ground, panting violently, but there was joy in his eyes. Their nobles were thinking about how to deal with the policies of the Wuhun Empire. Unexpectedly, the first one to overthrow the Wuhun Empire was the Pope who had just succeeded to the throne.

And after the test just now, Ye Ming was 100% sure that the Pope was serious and was not here to test them. After all, if he was here to test them, he wouldn't need to be so cautious or suspicious. And anything could be faked, but the murderous intent in his eyes could not be faked.

After Ye Ming took a breath for a while, he stood up and walked to the door, opened it, waved to call a guard, and said, "Go and invite all the nobles in Wuhun Imperial City to come to the Duke's Mansion to discuss matters."

"Yes, Your Excellency the Duke." The guard agreed and was about to walk out of the Duke's Mansion.

"Long Xiaoyao, go follow him. I want to know the entire process of how he communicates with others." Ye Xuan's unhurried voice echoed slowly in the hall.

"Yes, my lord." Long Xiaoyao followed without any hesitation.

After the two of them left, Ye Xuan slowly walked out of the hall, looked at Ye Ming with murderous eyes, and said calmly: "You just said all the nobles in the empire, why are there only nobles in Wuhun Imperial City now?"

"Your Holiness, please be patient. It will take time for all the nobles in the empire to gather together. Moreover, those small nobles all follow our lead. As long as we finalize the plan, we can let them carry it out. Let's go to a place suitable for secret discussions first and wait patiently." Duke Ye Ming made a gesture of invitation and led the way.

Ye Xuan followed him quietly without saying a word. The two of them walked around the Duke's Mansion and came to a very hidden room.

The decoration of the entire room is not luxurious, but very simple. There is only a long table and neatly arranged chairs in the room. Apart from that, there is nothing extra.

Ye Xuan sat down in the main seat of the room, put his feet on the table in front of him, put his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and waited quietly.

Ye Ming sat down next to Ye Xuan and said with a smile: "Your Holiness, you just said you need a maid. I have a daughter who looks pretty good. How about giving her to Your Holiness as a maid?"

"Of course, Your Holiness can rest assured. My daughter is different from the receptionist at the auction house. She is very clean."

"Bring the person here and see him. If he satisfies me, I might agree." Ye Xuan raised his eyelids slightly and waved his hand indifferently.

Ye Ming walked to the door, waved his hand to call a maid, and said, "Go and bring the third young lady here. Remember to change her clothes and dress her up before bringing her here."

"Okay, Your Majesty."

After giving the instructions, Ye Ming walked back and sat down next to Ye Xuan again.

"Duke Ye Ming's education is really strict. As the third daughter of the Duke's Mansion, even changing clothes requires Duke Ye Ming to ask the maid to remind me."

Ye Ming didn't care much when he heard this, and said, "Your Holiness, you don't know that she doesn't have the talent to become a soul master. She can only be an ordinary person in her life. Even if she marries other nobles, her qualifications are still a little lacking."
