Chapter 650 Flattery and the struggle for position, a verbal battle
Chapter 650 Flattery and the struggle for position, a verbal battle
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Chu Danqing lived a very comfortable life, cultivating the Five Auspicious Symbols Diagram every day.
However, he is no longer in Yundu.
After all, there's an old monster hiding in Yundu. It's best to stay as far away as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications.
During this time, Chu Danqing also heard a lot of news.
It must be said that Zhang Chongyan was indeed a master at stirring up trouble in the world.
He had assumed that the other party would directly support King Pan Yu and the Four Wolf Kings, Wuzhu Boli.
Unexpectedly, the other party did not provide any support at all, but instead stirred up trouble.
This led to a division within the Lan Dynasty and the Cangyue Royal Court.
The Lan Dynasty was saved because the emperor was not dead, but merely abducted.
Therefore, the "two suns in the sky" rule cannot be applied, and the bug remains in place.
Therefore, ambitious regional princes raised the slogan of welcoming back the emperor and began to expand their territories.
The most outstanding among them was naturally Pan Yu, the Prince of Xun.
Half a month ago, he marched into Yundu with his banners, took over the palace, and declared that he would act as regent until the emperor was welcomed back.
It was precisely because of his actions that the internal strife has not yet subsided and is even escalating.
However, this chaos wouldn't last long, because the Azure Moon Royal Court attacked.
All the feudal lords were forced to unite as one.
If the Lan Dynasty's situation is described as a war among the vassal kings, then the Cangyue Royal Court's situation is a struggle for the throne among the nine princes.
Because the wolf lord Ujuhribo died, the position of wolf lord is now vacant.
Each of the wolf king's sons wanted to become the wolf lord.
Furthermore, due to Zhang Chongyan's instigation, these wolf kings fought so fiercely that their brains almost popped out of their heads.
Logically speaking, such a struggle should not be able to determine a winner in a short period of time.
Unexpectedly, the fourth wolf king, Uzhuboli, overturned the table because he was about to be eliminated.
He simply picked up his knife and chopped off the heads of all his competitors.
This is the first time in all the years since the establishment of the Azure Moon Royal Court that such a situation has occurred in the struggle for the Wolf Lord.
There have been killings, but this is the first time that such a disregard for rules and direct use of force has occurred.
Although Uzhuboli became the new Wolf Lord of the Azure Moon Royal Court as a result, it was also a bad start.
There will inevitably be troubles in the future.
However, these are not things that Ujiboli should be considering right now.
After becoming the Wolf Lord, he consolidated all power through even more ruthless means.
Then they decisively launched an attack on the Lan Dynasty.
With internal strife in the Lan Dynasty and the emperor and a host of civil and military officials at their disposal, now is the best time to destroy it.
Once he misses it, Ujuboli doesn't know if he'll have another good opportunity like this.
Because of his actions, the internal conflicts that existed between the two sides were transformed into external conflicts.
This can be seen as a way to mitigate the downward spiral into weakness.
However, the cost is also very high: unless one side destroys the other, it is considered a loss.
If they win, both Pan Yu and Wuzhuboli's positions are now secure.
All the previous unorthodox and bloody methods will become a thing of the past.
"It seems that the two of them have already obtained the divine weapons of humanity." Chu Danqing looked at the latest intelligence.
Both sides have deployed troops along the border, and although no fighting has started yet, there have been numerous skirmishes of varying sizes.
They're just waiting for the right opportunity to launch a full-scale attack.
The reason they don't attack right away is naturally to continuously accumulate strength for themselves.
dong dong dong~
"Brother, there's a letter for you." A voice came from outside the door.
Chu Danqing went to open the door and saw a young man handing her a well-sealed letter.
"Thank you." Chu Danqing accepted the money and gave the other party ten copper coins.
The other party thanked him repeatedly and then left.
Chu Danqing took the letter, but did not open it immediately after returning to her room.
"These petty tricks are nothing special." Chu Danqing shook his head: "If Zhang Chongyan wants to succeed, I'm afraid he has no hope."
"They're always thinking about these kinds of conspiracies and tricks."
Chu Danqing knew that most people in history who achieved great things did so by taking the grand and righteous path.
Even if you succeed using such despicable means, few people will respect you.
"That makes sense. Given his divine weapon nature, he probably can't conquer the world. He'll need to constantly switch sides and betray others, which does fit his behavior."
As Chu Danqing spoke, he swept his magic power away, clearing the poison from the envelope.
Then I opened it and took a look.
The letter was written respectfully, and the general idea was that Zhang Chongyan had already accomplished his mission and was now inviting Chu Danqing to join him in killing Pan Yu and Wuzhu Boli.
During the conversation, it was also mentioned that he wasn't the only one; Bai Hanzhe was now also collaborating with him.
"That idiot," Chu Danqing couldn't help but curse.
He could guess why Bai Hanzhe was hanging out with Zhang Chongyan.
They just wanted to rescue the emperor.
However, in his estimation, the reason they took the bait might be that Zhang Chongyan had also included civil and military officials and princes.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have actually let Bai Hanzhe work for him. "Let me go over and talk things over. Perfect, you're useless now." Chu Danqing sneered.
Zhang Chongyan never even considered that Chu Danqing's inaction stemmed from the fact that the Dragon Sparrow Blade and the Sun and Moon Sword needed his help to be created.
Since the other party couldn't get it, they assumed that Chu Danqing needed to cooperate with him to get the divine weapon.
Chu Danqing burned the letter and then called Da Bao to set off on a cloud.
Yunfa's skills improved as his Five Auspicious Symbols Diagrams became more refined.
The speed is getting faster and faster now, almost as fast as high-speed rail.
And this isn't even the limit; once he gets more familiar with it, he should be able to catch the plane.
It's no wonder this method comes from a high-level trial world; it's truly very useful.
Unfortunately, it can only be considered a technique, not a skill.
After speeding along, Chu Danqing arrived at the location indicated on the letter.
"Who goes there?" A wary voice rang out, and Bai Hanzhe, carrying the Chizha Spear, led several men out.
When they saw that it was Chu Danqing, they were also taken aback.
"Brother Chu, it's you." Bai Hanzhe quickly stopped the others.
These people were all gathered by him along the way, all for the purpose of rescuing the emperor and the military commanders.
Most of them were from humble backgrounds or were commoners who became military commanders by chance.
As for those powerful families, none of them responded to his call.
Most of them followed the local vassal kings.
Rescuing the emperor is too difficult, but serving him would be much easier.
"Zhang Chongyan invited me here," Chu Danqing said bluntly. "And who are these people?"
“They are all like-minded brothers I met on the road.” Bai Hanzhe’s tone carried a hint of pride: “They came with me to rescue you.”
Chu Danqing initially refused to help, but now she realizes that her choice was the right one.
"That's good, it seems there's a good chance of success." Chu Danqing complimented, then asked, "Where's Zhang Chongyan? Where is he? I need to speak with him."
This place is not within the territory of the Lan Dynasty, but rather within the Cangyue Royal Court.
After all, Zhang Chongyan was personally appointed Prince of Jin by the old wolf king, Uzhuhelibo.
Although it is the throne of the Lan Dynasty and the Lan Dynasty does not recognize it, the Cangyue Royal Court does.
Of course, the main reason was actually that with his help, Uzhuboli became the new wolf lord.
That's why I have my current status.
Zhang Chongyan's base of influence is all within the territory of the Cangyue Royal Court; otherwise, how could he have fooled Bai Hanzhe and the others?
If you rely solely on your words, it might be okay once or twice, but if it happens too often, you'll definitely be exposed.
"I don't know, he's usually the one who comes here to contact us," Bai Hanzhe said, shaking his head.
Although they did go out to gather intelligence, it wasn't so easy to obtain information about the whereabouts of a high-ranking official like Zhang Chongyan.
They weren't professionals, and being in an enemy country, many things naturally weren't as convenient.
"When will he arrive?" Chu Danqing asked again.
Bai Hanzhe still didn't know; he simply didn't know anything when asked.
It can only be said that Bai Hanzhe was completely under Zhang Chongyan's control, with no strength left to resist.
"You don't know this or that, how dare you cooperate with Zhang Chongyan?" Chu Danqing was also shocked.
Chu Danqing dared to use Zhang Chongyan because he had Yang Qianyuan, who was of a higher level.
Otherwise, if he encountered someone like Zhang Chongyan, the only option would be to kill him; he would never choose to cooperate.
It must be said that Bai Hanzhe is truly brave.
"I know that cooperating with this person is like asking a tiger for its skin, but this person is indeed capable." Bai Hanzhe had no choice.
"Huh? Then why don't you just grab him and threaten him?" Chu Danqing acknowledged Zhang Chongyan's value, but the way he was using that value was problematic.
You, someone with such low political acumen that you're practically useless, actually dared to cooperate with Zhang Chongyan, who's full of cunning and scheming.
Forget about cooperation; direct coercion is the right approach.
"We must rescue everyone," Bai Hanzhe said. "If we use this method, we can only rescue His Majesty and the Crown Prince at most."
"I see, that was what you originally thought." Chu Danqing suddenly realized, "But you were misled by Zhang Chongyan."
With the bewitching power of the divine weapon combined with Zhang Chongyan's silver tongue, Bai Hanzhe and his group fell for it immediately.
“We did it voluntarily,” Bai Hanzhe explained.
Chu Danqing did not continue to offer advice, but simply said, "Alright, as long as you are confident."
Transferring money to scammers is entirely voluntary.
Chu Danqing had already reminded him that he wasn't Bai Hanzhe's father, and he could only respect the other party's choice once or twice.
"Then you all need to rest well, I have other things to do." Chu Danqing didn't have time to chat with Bai Hanzhe.
He was so eager to kill Zhang Chongyan that he acted as a tool to discard his usefulness.
As long as the other party is alive for even a minute, Chu Danqing cannot even cultivate in peace.
"Brother Chu wants to kill Zhang Chongyan, right?" Bai Hanzhe suddenly spoke up: "This is something we absolutely cannot agree to."
"We still need him to do things so that we can better rescue His Majesty and the other officials."
Chu Danqing completely ignored the other party and turned to leave.
Seeing his attitude, Bai Hanzhe had no choice but to lead his men to stop Chu Danqing.
"Brother Chu, please give me some face. You can kill Zhang Chongyan after we've rescued the people." Bai Hanzhe held up the Chizha Spear, looking ready to make a move.
