Dynasty Call: Low-key Struggle for Hegemony

Kyoto, Ming Palace.

"OK!"

In the martial arts training ground, the nine-foot-tall King Ming, who exuded a violent aura, received the news from Su Xianqing. His eyes flashed, he laughed heartily, put his spear into the wooden frame, and strode out of the martial arts training ground.

"Let's go with me to the palace to meet my father!"

…………

In the imperial palace and the royal study, Emperor Yu received the news no slower than King Ming.

Emperor Yu's face was a little pale, his eyes were slightly closed and he was leaning on the dragon chair. Manager Li held a bowl of medicinal food and handed it to Emperor Yu.

"His Majesty."

Manager Li called softly.

Emperor Yu opened his eyes slightly, put down the information about the various forces in the Yu Dynasty, picked up the medicinal meal, took a sip, and then ate it in large gulps. His originally pale face gradually turned red.

After Emperor Yu handed the empty bowl to Manager Li, he picked up the information on the Yizhou border and read it carefully.

Manager Li took the empty bowl with both hands, took two steps back and waited respectfully.

"The second child has done quite well, Yizhou just let him go."

Emperor Yu casually put down this information.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ming is so brave that he will surely shock Yizhou..."

Manager Li smiled. He knew that Emperor Yu had decided to let Prince Ming go to Yizhou, so he naturally wanted to praise him for this.

"He is brave, but his temper is too hasty."

Although Emperor Yu was scolding, there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

"He can still restrain his temper in Kyoto. The few families in Yizhou are just mediocre. I'm afraid that if he takes over Yizhou, his heart will become inflated and he will become arrogant. If the enemy sets a trap based on his temper, he may suffer a loss."

Manager Li bowed slightly. He knew what Emperor Yu wanted to hear now and said quickly:

"King Ming is blessed. He has countless talented people under his command. He will surely live up to His Majesty's expectations."

Emperor Yu shook his head slightly, the worry in his eyes disappeared and became profound:

"He chose this path himself. Whether he succeeds or fails, he always has to practice."

"Your Majesty, King Ming wants to see you!" the guard outside the door reported.

Emperor Yu shook his head and sighed, pointing lightly at the door:

"Look, he's still too impatient."

………………

Less than an hour after King Ming entered the palace, the eldest prince Xuan Wang and the third prince Yu Wang also received news from the Yizhou border.

Prince Xuan's Mansion, in the garden.

Prince Xuan clasped his hands behind his back and picked out one of the most beautiful flowers. He kept playing with it in his hands without showing any surprise. He smelled the fragrance of the flowers and showed a faint smile:

"King Ming always likes to be at the forefront. Now that he has started, Xingyu's plan in Danzhou can be implemented."

"yes!"

An old manager behind him nodded slightly, looked at Prince Xuan standing with his hands behind his back, struggled a little in his eyes, lowered his head and said:

"Your Highness, didn't the Queen ask Your Highness to go to Qingzhou? Why go to the chaotic Danzhou?"

The family behind the Queen is the only top power in Qingzhou. It can be said that Qingzhou is the base camp of King Xuan.

"It's a joke. Prince Ming went to Yizhou. If I went to Qingzhou, wouldn't I be laughed at by them?"

Prince Xuan snorted coldly, with a surging fighting spirit in his eyes.

………………

In the exquisite and gorgeous attic of Prince Yu's Mansion, the stunningly beautiful Princess Li Mujun of Dayu looked at Prince Yu who was lowering his head and carefully wiping the tea set. The smooth white jade cup reflected the impatience on Li Mujun's face.

"Aren't you worried? King Ming is already one step ahead of you."

Li Mujun felt a little irritated when he looked at King Yu who was very tidy.

I'm so anxious that I'm still wiping the cup slowly. With your cultivation level, even if you drink poisonous tea, you may not be in trouble.

It’s true, I don’t care about cleanliness as much as you do.

King Yu raised his handsome face, smiled at Li Mujun, finally put down the tea set that he had wiped three times, made tea and poured water:

"Auntie, please sit down. No matter how anxious we are, we can't wait for this moment."

"I asked, can you ask the maid to help you clean the tea set in the future?"

"The things they touch with their fingers are dirtier!"

King Yu frowned slightly.

Li Mujun's chest rose and fell, he took a deep breath and asked:

"Why did you go to Liangzhou? Isn't it bad to go to Yangzhou? The environment in Yangzhou is relatively stable. With the help of your mother and concubine and the forces behind you, it is so easy to control Yangzhou. One step is fast, and every step is fast!

Taking Yangzhou and then entering Liangzhou with great momentum is not the same! "

King Yu lowered his head and carefully wiped his slender fingers with a snow-white handkerchief. His voice was soft and gentle, but there was an indescribable sense of oppression:

"It's too simple. The fifth brother can go to Lingzhou alone. If we brothers hide in the comfortable state capital, how can we face the royal family!"

"So you gave up the rich and stable Yangzhou and chose the chaotic Liangzhou?

The fifth prince, Li Yuan, has no power or influence and has no choice but to go there!

You are different, you can choose better! "

Li Mujun looked at King Yu with a hint of disbelief, just for a little bit of self-esteem?

The fight for the throne is all about a little advantage.

Now I have given up my great advantages and gone to a disadvantaged place!

It’s okay if King Ming doesn’t listen, but you won’t listen either?

"Aren't you afraid that Prince Xuan will surpass you?"

The sharp edge of King Yu's eyes flashed, he slowly raised his head, his eyes were stern, and he smiled confidently:

"He won't!"

"That's how you trust each other!"

Li Mujun recalled that King Ming also said this to her before.

"Why?"

Li Mujun really didn't understand. In the past, the competition for the crown prince of every generation was not extremely fierce, with each other fighting each other.

"What is our identity?"

"First the royal family, then the opponent!"

"That's why you left one by one and went to the most chaotic states in the Yu Dynasty?"

Li Mujun said coldly: "Have you not thought that with your status, you will not only face the forces of one state, but those top forces may unite with the forces of various states to defeat you!"

"Isn't that just right? If the main forces of all the major forces can be competed in one state, it would be much better than starting wars in various states!"

The corners of King Yu's mouth curved, and his handsome face was full of charm.

"You guys are so crazy!"

Li Mujun stood up, turned and left.

She already understood the plans of the three princes, and now it was useless for her to say anything.

Seeing Li Mujun's disappearing figure, King Yu chuckled. The tea had just been brewed and the fragrance was strong.

"Your Highness, if the eldest princess leaves, I'm afraid..."

A counselor slowly walked out from behind King Yu.

"It's okay, my aunt has always wanted to control a prince, but unfortunately we are not something she can control."

Prince Yu poured the tea with his own hands and handed it to the counselor.

"Thank you, Your Highness." The counselor was flattered and quickly took it.

"It seems that Kyoto is not at peace after we leave."

King Yu picked up the tea cup and said meaningfully.

The counselor served tea with both hands, glanced at the direction the eldest princess was leaving, and felt silent in his heart.

Knowing that the three princes will leave, the eldest princess should now win over the other princes.

For example, the fourth prince Li Yao......

"It would be nice if Kyoto is more lively, and my father can have more fun."

Auntie, I hope you wake up in time and don't go too far.

A look of indifference flashed in King Yu's eyes.
