Chapter 423: Shocking Layout

Li Tianming would never have thought that this time the plan would not only go wrong, but also cause a slight crack in the heart of Li Suwen, who was most attached to him.

After all, Li Suwen is a member of the royal family. He has the pride that all royal people have. He is willing to sacrifice his life, but he does not want others to use his life. The same is true for Li Tianming!

It was already noon when Li Tiancheng knew that Shi Yan and the ruffian army were captured. In another hour, Li Tianming would enter the city, and he must follow the officials to greet him. Li Tiancheng should be with Huang Tian in the imperial city now, but he was not. He left the mansion and went directly to the place where Shi Yan was imprisoned.

"How could this happen?" Li Tiancheng came to the cell where Shi Yan lived and asked worriedly.

Shi Yan told Li Tiancheng what had happened. At the same time, Li Tiancheng also had his own source of intelligence. Combining the two, he immediately analyzed the cause of the matter.

"Su Wen!" Li Tiancheng sighed, "Su Wen is the daughter of my uncle, and is very much loved by my father. However, she has a bad relationship with me, but is extremely obsessed with my elder brother, so she came directly to find you after hearing what happened last night. Are you okay? Although Su Wen is a girl, she is extremely powerful, with a myriad of changes, and she has inherited the coldest coldness in history from my uncle. When combined with these two, even my elder brother dares not face her directly."

"It's okay, thank you for your concern, Prince. I'm fine." Shi Yan said.

"Why are you being so polite to me? You are my dear brother in my heart!" Li Tiancheng sighed, "Wenren Chengfu has been trying to curb the development of my power. I should have guessed that something was wrong last night. I was so careless!"

Shi Yan said, "This is not your problem. It's that Li Tianming is too cunning and too good at disguising himself. Until now, I always thought that he wanted to weaken your strength and recruit me. I didn't expect that his purpose was to paralyze us and then get rid of me! He eliminated everyone who might hinder him. This ruthlessness is really frightening."

"The most frightening thing is his acting skills. Not only my father, but everyone in the entire Huangtian Realm has been deceived by her appearance!" Thinking of his dead mother, the anger and hatred in his eyes became more intense.

Shi Yan thought of Wenren Chengfu's origins and was somewhat puzzled. Wenren Chengfu came from the Heaven Realm, so why did he want to put the eldest prince on the throne? If the eldest prince was incompetent, it would be easy to control, but the eldest prince was a man of ability and courage. It would be extremely difficult to control him and make him a puppet. Moreover, that loyalty was not pretended, but came from the heart.

A prince from the Huangtian Realm could inspire loyalty from the people of the Cangtian Realm? Could he be so charming?

Or

He suddenly remembered what Ning Qinsu had told him. Thirty years ago, the prince of Cang Tianjing disappeared. That event had a huge impact. Because of the prince's disappearance, Cang Tianjing was in turmoil. Among them, the highest-ranking official was the Junior Master Wen Renhong. Ning Qinsu guessed that Junior Master Wen Renhong might not be dead, and was the current Prime Minister Wenren Chengfu, who held all the power in the Huang Tianjing!

Thinking of this, Shi Yan had a bold guess that the eldest prince was most likely the prince who disappeared in Cang Tian Realm at that time!

If this conjecture is true, then everything makes sense. ()

The disappearance of the prince and the killing of all the related people were just a play performed by the Cang Tian Realm, which deceived everyone. And secretly brought the prince into the Huang Tian Realm and replaced the eldest prince of the Huang Tian Realm. The prince of the Cang Tian Realm and the eldest prince of the Huang Tian Realm were born on similar dates, so everyone was deceived. As for the appearance, the three gods in the three realms are originally from the same source, so it is not strange that they have similarities. It happened that the Huang Tian Realm was in turmoil at that time, the princes were fighting for power, the Qing Tian Realm launched a large-scale attack, the front line failed, and the situation was critical. Li Suwen's father was also seriously injured in order to protect Huang Tian at that time. He suffered from a hidden illness for several years and finally died. In that environment, it is also very likely that the people of the Cang Tian Realm took advantage of the opportunity, replaced the prince, and then killed him.

Let the prince of Cangtian Realm infiltrate the imperial court of Huangtian Realm, and then let Wenren Chengfu assist him in ascending the throne, eliminate all those who may hinder the prince's ascension to the throne, and finally control Huangtian Realm.

Shi Yan was frightened by his own guess. This was really a complicated situation!

Such a deep plan is not something that ordinary people can formulate. There must be a very powerful strategist in the Cang Tian Realm. Because if this plan wants to succeed, all factors must be taken into account, all possible reasons for failure must be taken into account, not only the Huang Tian Realm, but also the Qing Tian Realm. There must be no mistakes, and then calculate the safest path. Obviously, he was successful. The prince successfully became the eldest prince of the Huang Tian Realm, and his civil and military skills were both top-notch. He was loved by Huang Tian and the people. The second prince was only obsessed with martial arts, and the third prince was a waste. He had no power to fight back under the suppression of Wenren Chengfu. In such an environment, without any accidents, the position of Huang Tian must be his.

In this way, the Cang Tian Realm can take over the Huang Tian Realm without losing a single soldier!

Everyone is in the game except me, an outsider who is outside the game and can see things very clearly.

No, there is one more person who might know.

That is Huang Tian! Shi Yan guessed in his heart, and what led Shi Yan to make this guess was what Huang Tian said to him in the imperial study that day.

However, Shi Yan was not very sure. If Huang Tian knew about it, why didn't he deprive the eldest prince of his title?

Or did he want to use himself to help the Third Prince ascend to the throne and crush the conspiracy of Cang Tian Realm? At the same time, it is possible that Huang Tian took advantage of the situation and planned a secret plot to make Cang Tian Realm lose more than it gained.

All of this is just speculation and there is no evidence to prove it, so Shi Yan did not tell Li Tiancheng.

He just asked him to go to Huang Tian and plead for him to get him out of prison.

Shi Yan just wanted to test Huang Tian's reaction to confirm his guess.

Li Tiancheng nodded and left, and came back soon with good news.

"It's very strange. Normally, my father never asks about these things. He says that everything should be left to that old man Wenren. But today, I only said one sentence and he agreed." Li Tiancheng said strangely.

Shi Yan smiled secretly, it seems that I guessed right! Seeing Li Tiancheng's strange look, Shi Yan secretly shook his head. Compared with Li Tianming, this Li Tiancheng is not a little bit worse.

Although he was released from prison, he was the only one released, while Ruffian Jun was still imprisoned. In order to make it easier to control them, Wenren Chengfu imprisoned Shi Yan and Ruffian Jun separately.

Li Tiancheng said: "What should we do next? Big brother has already made a move, should we fight back?"

Shi Yan shook his head. "We cannot fight back for now. Get my subordinates out first. Otherwise, we are outnumbered and a rash attack will only give your brother more reasons and excuses to attack us."

Li Tiancheng thought about it and nodded, "That's right, my brother is loved by the people. As long as there is a reason, they will think that beheading me in public is to eliminate harm for the people, so I have been cautious and not reveal any clues."

"That's right, especially in this situation, we have to be extra careful." Shi Yan said: "By the way, have you arranged my partner for me?"

Li Tiancheng nodded, "Yes, they are still in the underground training ground of the North Camp."

In order to avoid being discovered by others, the Mo family and Gongye people were asked to drive the Dayu dragon boat into the underground training ground.

"Very good, Third Prince, you tell them to get ready. There will probably be work tonight. I will find a way to get rid of those ruffians." Shi Yan and the Third Prince split up into two groups.

At this time, it was time for the eldest prince to have a fashion show in Beijing.

Except for Qin Yao and the vanguard troops who returned to the capital the night before, the rest of the eldest prince's troops remained outside the city.

At this moment, the eldest prince, who had already left the city, led his troops to organize the ceremonial guards several miles outside the city. They rode fine war horses, wore fine armor handmade by masters, and held two-meter-long spears in their right hands. Under the tip of the spear was a yellow flag, which represented the number of the eldest prince's guards.

The Crown Prince's Guards were nicknamed "Spearhead", which meant that they were as sharp as spears and could break through all enemies.

This sounds much better than Shi Yan’s Ruffian Army.

When the team was still three miles away from the capital, they could already see people lining the streets on both sides of the city gate to welcome them.

The space in the capital is limited, and it is impossible for everyone to stand on both sides of the road to welcome them, so some people from other worlds stayed outside the city.

There were huge crowds of people outside the city gate, and from a distance, it looked like a sea of ​​heads.

"Look, the eldest prince is coming!"

When the eldest prince rode his mount to the top of a hill outside the city, the cheers of the people shook the sky.

The eldest prince was dressed in a majestic black and gold armor, looking very powerful.

"Wow, the eldest prince is so handsome! I want to marry you!" Many crazy fans screamed.

His mount is no ordinary creature. It is said to be a spiritual beast with the blood of the ancient Kunlun Kaiming Beast, named Riming Beast. It looks like a tiger. Although it does not have nine human heads like the Kaiming Beast, it also has six heads, but the heads are lion heads. The six heads all have forehead guards made of black gold, and the limbs and abdomen are all covered with wrist guards and armor made of black gold.

Li Tianming looked at the crowd below and felt a sense of pride.

"Let's go!" Li Tianming raised the golden halberd in his hand. The patterns on the golden halberd flashed and turned into three sections that shot into the sky like a golden snake coming out of a cave, making a chirping sound, and then quickly retracted back to its original shape.

"Roar!" The soldiers behind him were also infected by the enthusiasm of the people, and their blood was boiling.

"This is the iron-blooded army that has gone through hundreds of battles. Humph, compared to them, General Haotian's ruffian army is really inferior."

"Yes, if it was the Crown Prince's vanguard troops on the parade ground that day, the ruffian army would have been scared to death immediately."

"I think the Vanguard Army hasn't even shown up yet. Once the murderous intent is released from them, the Ruffian Army will be too weak to stand up."

Amid everyone's cheers, the eldest prince led his troops and slowly entered the capital.
