"No, it's not just the Third Prince. If you want to cooperate with anyone in the royal family, you have to make sure that he has the absolute upper hand and that there is a high probability that the entire future of Daxia will fall under his control.
"Otherwise, they will most likely not bring any benefit to me, but will instead hinder me madly."
Every failure makes one wiser, and Zhang Mingtu finally understood the situation.
The moral and value concepts of the royal family are very different from those of normal people. Even the people in the aristocratic families are the same. Their moral and value concepts are extremely different from those of normal people.
If the world basically belongs to them, then they will have the world in their hearts and will try their best to save the world after any event.
But if the world is not theirs, it may fall into the control of others, and they will destroy it without any scruples.
"Damn it! I've tried my best to understand them, but sometimes I still feel like I can't keep up with the pace. These people's thinking patterns, their ideas..."
Zhang Mingtu sometimes couldn't help scratching his head, he really couldn't figure it out.
Relatively speaking, he prefers those people who walk around in the world, without so many twists and turns.
Winning is winning, losing is losing, he doesn't need to think too much.
Even though there are many disputes within Donglin Temple, at least it is for the overall benefit of Donglin Temple.
Overall, they are all working to make Donglin Temple better, even if their methods may not be quite right.
"The big sects do have their own stances, but the royal family basically has no fixed stance. Just like the aristocratic families on the southeast coast, they support whoever wins."
Zhang Mingtu sighed softly.
In the small courtyard, the sound of Xue Cheng practicing with the sword never stopped, which sounded very pleasant and made people feel close to him.
At this time, Zhang Mingtu heard a pause outside the house and the sound of a brief conversation. While he was still thinking, Xue Cheng knocked on the door and came in with excitement on his face.
"Brother, the latest edition of the Lingyun Ranking has been released. Many of the top ten are from our southeastern coastal area. Even the number one on the Lingyun Ranking is in Jiujiang County. If we can recruit them and bring them under our command..."
Xue Cheng looked excited, holding a newly published list.
That was the list that Kyoto sent to the whole country at the fastest speed. The Lingyun List marked the top heroes from all over Daxia, including both national and state lists.
Every time the time comes, Daxia will make an announcement, which not only shows Daxia's control over the world, but also shows Daxia's attention to top geniuses.
Xue Cheng didn't care much at first, but since he learned that Zhang Mingtu was suspected to be a member of the royal family, he started to pay extra attention to these top geniuses.
After all, he has now become Zhang Mingtu's confidant in every aspect. No other emperor can recruit him. Even if they dare to recruit him, he dare not go.
In this era, people who are indecisive will not have a good ending.
So he simply helped Zhang Mingtu silently on a daily basis.
Pretend that no one knows about this and don't contact the family for the time being. If you can clearly judge that the prince's chances of winning have greatly increased afterwards, then continue to increase the chips.
"Rising Cloud Ranking?"
Zhang Mingtu raised his eyebrows slightly, and actually became a little interested.
The Tianji Mirror in the Tianji Pavilion does have mysterious powers. As long as it is within the territory ruled by Daxia, it has the ability to inspect Daxia.
Of course, due to the corresponding rules and restrictions, they seem to be able to only detect the corresponding top geniuses.
They can only publish the Lingyun List and the Qianlong List, and the annual lists are still quite credible.
Many of the people on the Qianlong List are from the middle-aged and older classes, and the people who pay attention to them are all young masters, while the Lingyun List is basically composed entirely of young masters.
All the top figures from various sects and all over the country are very curious about the Lingyun List, and they also want the figures from their own sect to be on the list.
After all, that sentence was very famous back then.
You must know that when he was young he had lofty ambitions and promised to be the best in the world.
The young man is full of passion and always wants to test who is the real best in the world.
In previous years, no matter who was number one in the world, there would always be countless people challenging him, which could be regarded as a list of troublemakers.
Zhang Mingtu's future brothers had been on the list several times before, so they were not unfamiliar with this list. Therefore, they felt a little interested in it. They took the list and looked up at it, their faces froze.
"Let me see which unlucky guy becomes number one on the Lingyun Ranking..."
Number one on the Lingyun List: Anonymous, unknown date of birth, unknown martial arts training.
He is currently in Jiujiang County, Jiangnan West Road, and his martial arts skills are at the peak of the Zhenyuan realm.
He has mastered many top-notch magical skills and has the aura of Buddhism and Taoism.
If others are not familiar with him, how could Zhang Mingtu not be familiar with him?
There is no name mentioned on the list, but that corner and that direction indicate that it is Zhang Mingtu.
Any direction is talking about Zhang Mingtu's problem.
Zhang Mingtu's head was twitching as he watched.
But Xue Cheng was quite excited.
"The number one on the Lingyun Ranking is actually in Jiujiang County. We have a huge advantage. Brother, if we can find him and recruit him, it will definitely be of great benefit."
"The Lingyun List consists of people under the age of twenty-five. They are able to reach such a realm under the age of twenty-five, and they are also able to hide it so well by the people in their family, without even revealing their cultivation, appearance, or name. They will definitely be world-class figures in the future."
"But recruiting such a person should be difficult. Let me take a look at the top five..."
Xue Cheng's face was full of excitement when he first started talking, but he observed Zhang Mingtu's expression while speaking. Seeing that Zhang Mingtu's expression didn't seem very good, he immediately lowered his voice and began to change the subject subtly.
