"King Lu is planning to rebel!"

The crown prince suddenly cried out in alarm, his hands slightly trembling before he sneered, "Good, royal father just fell ill and King Lu actually dared to rebel. He's really tired of living."

Helian Manqiu held her forehead. This crown prince was not the least bit shrewd. With regards to the matter of King Lu's army, regardless of whether or not he was planning to usurp the throne, the crown prince should not reveal anything in front of everyone.

Although the matter of King Lu sending his troops would spread to the capital in an instant, this crown prince clearly lacked the scheming and boldness to become an emperor.

The Right Prime Minister bowed slightly helplessly, "What Your Highness said is that His Majesty the Emperor is now overseeing the affairs of the country due to the unease caused by the Emperor's dragon body. King Lu's army had used the name of the Qing King's faction, but he had actually wanted to rebel and seize the throne. This was truly an unpardonable crime. For now, only by defeating the Law King with troops and killing him or capturing him to the capital can the chaos be quelled. "

Empress's gaze fell on Helian Manqiu and she smiled, "With Uncle Zhen here, he is a renowned general of our Great Hengkong Empire. How could King Lu be a traitor? Your Majesty and I have high hopes for Zhenbei, and the crown prince also favors Zhenbei. I wonder if Qingyu would be willing to help the country and share the worries with the emperor? "

Helian Manqiu cupped her fists and said, "Esteemed Empress, Your Highness, this subject has received the grace of the heavens and should serve the nation. However, this official has yet to completely accept Jing Bei as his military power and financial resources are limited.

"Uncle Zhenbei's words are reasonable. Although Uncle Zhen uses troops like a god, after all, King Lu has been in possession of his territory for a long time and has countless elite soldiers under his command. Uncle Zhen's military strength and wealth alone aren't enough to intimidate his majesty."

"Don't we still have the Mighty Heaven?"

The empress spoke lightly, her phoenix-like eyes filled with ruthlessness. "Right now, His Majesty's dragon body is uneasy and his society is unstable. It's time to hire someone." Father thought it would be good to ask Sky Duke to send out the troops when the troops are being used for a long period of time. "

The Right Prime Minister thought for a while and said, "This matter cannot be overlooked. Allow this old official to think about it, but Uncle Zhen is completely loyal to the country and is willing to protect the country. There is no need to worry about not being able to capture and kill the traitor!"

The empress turned her head to look at Helian Manqiu, "I have heard that Uncle Zhen uses troops like a god, planning for a battle. Although there are not many under your command, it is still possible for them to be as brave as one versus ten. "What views do you have regarding this matter?"

Helian Manqiu said indifferently, "This subject is only worried that after King Lu's army is formed, the northern border will not be peaceful. The inferior people will not be safe because they have their own plans."

The Right Prime Minister could not help but be shocked in his heart. His gaze fell on Helian Manqiu's body, and after a long time, he forced a smile.

"Sir has overpraised me. Of course the empress and the lord had anticipated such a small matter, but this official has spoken too much."

The Right Prime Minister walked to Helian Manqiu's side and said in a low voice, "I heard that His Highness King of Law had besieged the Army Region and secretly colluded with the foreign races. He even sent experts from the martial arts world to assassinate General Helian. The enmity of killing your father, the hatred of besieging a city, and the death of an unruly subject's son … Uncle Zhenbei will definitely act quickly to behead his enemy! "

This old fox, Helian Manqiu, had gone to the right side to sow discord, but the words of the right side weren't unreasonable.

The only thing that caused Helian Manqiu to be afraid of was whether or not the Law King would be Mo Bai.

"Thank you for your advice, sir. This official has never forgotten it for even a moment."

For many days, the emperor was too ill to go to court, the crown prince was overseeing the administration of the court, and the empress was secretly controlling the situation in the palace.

With the Right Prime Minister as the leader, the clan of the Empress took the opportunity to gain more power. They would truly have the power to topple the imperial court and control the political power of the imperial court. Even the Crown Prince listened to the words of the Teng Clan and handed most of the matters to the Teng Clan.

The Crown Prince was far inferior to the Emperor. He was not enough to assist the Emperor, but it was what the Teng Clan needed. He could further control the imperial power.

The feudal fiefdom of the Teng Clan was enough to shake the foundation of the Great Hengkong Empire. Now that the Emperor was in a coma and was unable to handle the affairs of the court, everyone in the court could tell that the power was going to fall on the Teng Clan.

The news continued to spread outside the capital. The crown prince had ordered King Xuan Qin to exterminate the Law King, and had issued a report to suppress the Law King.

The Law King had gathered the nobles of the various lands, as well as those of the royal family. In the name of the emperor, he claimed that the emperor had been secretly murdered by the crown prince in an attempt to usurp the throne.

When the Law King was recruiting, the report had already spread to all parts of the Great Hengkong Empire to suppress the treacherous Teng Clan in the imperial court.

At this time, although the Crown Prince was unwilling to let Helian Manqiu leave, he had no choice but to order Helian Manqiu to go back to Jingbei to prepare troops to suppress the King of Law, Duke Qin.

Before he left, the Crown Prince personally sent him off, which caused the ministers to shake their heads in envy.

They knew that the Crown Prince's thoughts were all on that beautiful young man, but they also saw Uncle Zhen's cold and detached attitude towards the Crown Prince.

As soon as the crown prince dispersed from his residence, even his concubines banished the manor. Rumors had it that the crown prince was trying his best to control the situation and wanted to turn the tide, becoming an enlightened lord. He would definitely be able to become a pillar of support and become a Saint Lord of the Great Hengkong Empire.

In fact, many people knew that the Crown Prince was willing to disperse the entire mansion to capture children and concubines in order to express his feelings towards the number one beautiful young man of the Great Hengkong Empire, Uncle Zhenbei.

The Crown Prince's intentions were written all over his face. He wanted to be close with Uncle Zhen for a few times, but Uncle Zhen always refused him. Thus, he used this method to express his feelings for Uncle Zhen.

"Qing Yu, you must not disappoint the sincere feelings that I have for you."

Helian Manqiu knelt and bade farewell to him. She said coldly, "I am sorry that Your Majesty and the Crown Prince hold each other so dear to them. I dare not to be ungrateful. Your Highness the Crown Prince, we bid you farewell."

Since the Crown Prince had personally come to send them off, the officials had no choice but to do so. Everyone hid in the distance to avoid disturbing the Crown Prince's confession to the beautiful young man.

"These people are all people this crown prince collected in the mansion to serve him when he is happy. After seeing Qing Yu's portrait, he treated them like dirt. After meeting you with my own eyes, I feel so stifled when I see these people. No one can enter my eyes anymore. These people will all be gifted to Qingyu. No matter what you do, kill them and leave them alive, Qingyu will make the decision. "

The officials all lowered their heads. The Right Premier shook his head. [There is finally someone in the Crown Prince's heart. It is a pity that Uncle Zhen doesn't appreciate it at all.]

The beautiful youths not far away were all wearing thin clothes, revealing their skin underneath the sunlight. All of them knelt on the ground, their hearts filled with sorrow. They did not want to stay in the crown prince's mansion and were tortured and humiliated day and night. However, they did not know what would happen to them today after being sent to Uncle Zhen, who was known to be cold-blooded and ruthless, to kill people without blinking an eye.

The teenagers could not stop trembling, tears trickling down their cheeks. No one dared to make a single sound. The crown prince had always been temperamental.

These catamites were like slaves. If no one in the Eastern Palace was punished one day, they would burn incense.

It was a great fortune for these catamites to not be humiliated by the Crown Prince one day. Their status in the Crown Prince's Palace was nothing more than servants who could be casually punished and humiliated by the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince was also happy to torture and humiliate them.

"This subject thanks His Highness the Crown Prince for his grace. The military situation is urgent. I will now bid my farewell to His Highness the Crown Prince."

Helian Manqiu kowtowed and got up. She backed down and jumped onto her horse. Bronze armor, snow-white Dragon Horses, she had the grace of a famous general of her generation. She was bewitched by the crown prince and refused to leave him for a long time.

"Uncle, those people …"

The Bloodsword looked at the teenagers kneeling not far away with disdain as he asked in a low voice.

"Prepare the carriage for them."

"You can't be really interested in those kids and really want to stay and wait upon you, right?"

"I can see that you've been working hard all along. I'm going to let them serve you and relieve your loneliness!"

The corner of the Blood Sword's mouth twitched, and he quickly cupped his fists: "Good brother, please forgive me, I will obey."

Someone prepared a horse carriage for the youths and followed Helian Manqiu into the distance.

"Right Minister, is it possible for Helian Qingyu to wholeheartedly contribute to this Crown Prince?"

The Right Prime Minister stroked his beard and said softly, "Your Highness, there is no need to worry. Right now, His Majesty is severely ill. Soon, the master of the Great Hengkong Empire will be you, Crown Prince. The reason why Helian Qingyu kept a low profile and showed weakness in the northern border was only to survive under the command of the Great Master of Heaven. How could he be willing to acknowledge the Great Master of Heaven as his master? This old official sees this person to be unfathomably scheming, scheming, calm and wise, with a future that is limitless. "

"Now, let him go. Is this considered letting go of the tiger back to the mountain?"

He had yet to get close to that beautiful young man and had only spoken a few words in a hurry. His recent contact with Helian Manqiu had caused his wrist to turn purple, and there were still traces of it left behind.

Crown Prince Xie smiled charmingly as he held the bruise on his wrist.

"What is there to worry about, Crown Prince? Whether it's Duke Qing Tian, Uncle Zhen Bei, or anyone else, they will all be subjects of the crown prince in the future. There will be a long period of time before the crown prince ascends the throne.

The Minister of the Right used an extremely low voice to whisper in the Crown Prince's ear. Upon hearing this, a proud smile appeared on the Crown Prince's face. He nodded slightly and patted the shoulder of the Right Minister, "I will never forget Grandfather's meritorious service."

"It is indeed my honor to be able to share your worries with the Crown Prince."

"Reporting to Uncle, the fresh soldiers are rising. Duke Ming borrowed the fresh elite soldiers to invade, using the name of exterminating kings and murdering fathers, as well as being a traitor."

"Reporting, reporting to Uncle, Duke Ming borrowed a fresh hundred thousand elite soldiers, and there is also the Iron Pagoda, which is why he was able to take a detour around the northern border and send troops all the way to attack!"

"Reporting, the path of King Lu is like a hot knife through butter. He has raised two hundred thousand soldiers and is now recruiting troops along the way. He already has three hundred thousand soldiers!"

"Report …"
