C929 The Situation(2)
The ones who truly have the right to speak in the court are the old men, the four dukes in command of the Braves, the Duke of Caitre in command of the Royal City Guards, the rest of the officials were in the faction of these fellows. As long as they made a decision, there was naturally no need to talk about what would happen next.2
Among the four Grand Dukes, Duke Isa was the one who supported Third Prince, and Duke Lukai was the one who secretly supported the Eleventh Prince. The other two commanders were at least neutral on the surface, while Duke Caitre was completely neutral. The Finance Minister and the others did not express their stance, as everyone knew very well these days. If one stood on the wrong side, and made a mistake in the end, losing an official would be a small matter. It was entirely possible for the whole family to be wiped out.
As Third Prince's grandfather, Duke Isa was a grasshopper that was tied up together. Naturally, he would support Third Prince without hesitation. As for Duke Lukai and the Eleventh Prince's grandfather... He was also the father of the Sixth Empress. In his military career, the Eleventh Prince's grandfather had saved Duke Isa's life more than once. Later on, the Eleventh Prince's grandfather was injured on the battlefield. He was crippled of one of his legs, then he retreated. However, Duke Lukai soared into the sky, and in the end, became a powerful Duke.
Tuyas was not completely unsupported, but judging from the current situation, there were also many people who supported him, but most of them were civil servants. In this world where martial arts was respected, their words could not catch up with the few dukes who were heavily armed. It was difficult to change the situation.
Among the two dukes who remained neutral, Duke Karhong and Duke Loans, Duke Loans valued Tuyas quite a bit, but he still did not express his support for Tuyas. He only leaned towards Tuyas.
Tuyas thought for a while and said, "Then where are we going? If we leave at this time, will father think..."
"It is necessary to judge the situation and make the right judgment. It is necessary to have the qualities of a superior person. If he knows that he is not a match for us, he will still fight us head on. At most, he would be a Braveheart. He would not be able to command hundreds of officials with just the word 'brave'. He would be able to rule the world. "
"Alright, I'll listen to you, sir."
...
The news of the king, Rodega, giving up his position and choosing one of the three princes as his successor spread like the wind across the entire continent. Naturally, it also spread to the Azure Bamboo Mountain Manor.
Reg had also stopped cultivating after advancing to the Fourth Grade Combat King. He wanted to relax for a few days.
While he was training, Reg did not simply train his combat power. He also practiced alchemy. Reg found that alchemy also increased his combat power very quickly.
He kept using his combat power to make his combat power run quickly in his body. In the end, his combat power was completely used up. Under this kind of high pressure, combat power was like a person's potential, constantly being forced out.
Reg's alchemy ability was still steadily at the level of a level six alchemist. However, he had already mastered the refining of Pill Medicine. Moreover, he could refine many types of level six Pill Medicine. Mrs. Qiangwei continued to train hard. In the domain of Level Eight Medicine Master, she also became deeper and deeper, becoming more and more proficient. Although she still could not compare to Badar, the difference was not too great.
Badar himself was launching an attack towards the peak of a tier 9 alchemist, continuously improving his refining technique. Increasing his spiritual perception, Badar's strength previously stopped at the peak of king level. It was very difficult for him to improve his senses. Now that he had entered the Emperor Level realm, it was very difficult for him to improve his senses. Naturally, it was as if he had arrived in a new sky, and his future was limitless.
Since ancient times, the level of an alchemist and the strength of a cultivator were closely related. This was because there was one very important thing involved in this, and that was their senses.
Perhaps this matter was not very obvious in the lower levels, but it was very obvious after the level was high.
In history, every level seven and above alchemist had the strength of a king level or above. Many of those who had reached tier 8 had entered the Emperor Level. As for those few tier 9 alchemists, they had mostly reached the late stage of the expert of Emperor Level or even the expert of Holy Level.
Alchemists were not only attracted by the Pill Medicine they refined. Their own strength was also not to be underestimated.
There were many High Level Medicine Masters in the Void Spirit Mountain Manor. This also showed that their strength was very strong. Lalman, as a Level Eight Medicine Master, was an expert who had already entered the Emperor Level.
When he heard the news from the Royal City, Reg was also somewhat shocked.
"Didn't they say that His Majesty is in good health? Why did he suddenly think of abdicating his position?"
Reg looked at Mrs. Qiangwei with some doubt. "Among the three princes, Eighth Prince Tuyas seems to be the weakest..."
Mrs. Qiangwei nodded and sighed lightly. "This kind of competition for the throne does not only test one's ability. More importantly, it is the power behind the support of the supporters. Third Prince and the Eleventh Prince both have the support of a duke who lead a large number of troops. Eighth Prince Tuyas's supporters are mostly civil servants, and their words are not very effective..."
After a slight pause, Mrs. Qiangwei looked at Reg. Her eyes were bright. "Do you want to help him?"
Reg sighed softly. "Third Prince is not a bad person. I also want to help him. However, this kind of thing, if one did not pay attention to it, one would be crushed into pieces. Besides, things in the court are not things that you and I can change... "
Mrs. Qiangwei nodded her head in understanding, "That's true. Although there are many experts in Azure Bamboo Mountain Manor, after all, the matters in the court are not as simple as we think. It's not like whoever has the bigger fist will win. There are too many matters and powers involved. "
After hesitating for a moment, Mrs. Qiangwei stared into Reg's eyes. She said worriedly, "Although that's what you said, we are helping Eighth Prince provide the Pill Medicine to help him. I'm afraid that Third Prince and the Eleventh Prince have already regarded us as supporters of Tuyas."
