Originally, because the emperor was in seclusion, the country should have been peaceful and prosperous under the governance of the princes.
However, an urgent secret report sent from thousands of miles away broke the tranquility like thunder.
The eldest prince read the urgent report over and over again in the study of his mansion, his brows furrowed and his expression solemn.
He immediately ordered the summons of his advisors and waited for everyone to arrive in the reception room.
The information was shown to three counselors: Zou Li, Chen Qun and Zhao Yan.
Zou Li, Chen Qun and Zhao Yan carefully read the information and their expressions became solemn.
The eldest prince was anxious and asked, "Everyone, I wonder how we should respond now?"
The three of them looked at the current intelligence, their hearts agitated. Zou Li muttered to himself, "Nanling actually rebelled?"
Their original plan was to quietly make arrangements while Emperor Dagan was in seclusion.
If their actions were a little bigger, Emperor Dagan would not be able to find out, so naturally he wanted him to stay in seclusion for as long as possible.
But if Nanling rebels, Emperor Dagan decides to leave the country.
Some of their plans and actions were completely wasted.
Even if it is interrupted now, clues will be discovered, and if that happens, it will be troublesome.
Given the emperor's suspicion, they are in dire straits.
And now they are just starting to prepare, and there is basically no possibility of successfully seizing the throne.
Therefore, the Nanling rebellion completely disrupted their plans.
This is why the eldest prince is so worried.
Seeing that no one answered, the eldest prince became even more anxious and asked again, "Everyone, in your opinion, how should we deal with this? Should we let our father come out of seclusion?"
After hearing this, Zou Li finally realized what was going on and quickly interrupted loudly, "We can't do that."
The voice was so loud that everyone was startled. After shouting, they realized that they were a little rude and quickly apologized.
He explained: "In the current situation, if His Majesty comes out of seclusion and learns of our plan.
Then all our efforts will be wasted, and even His Highness’ life may be in danger.
Given His Majesty's character, it is impossible for him to let us go.
It was because the late emperor was soft-hearted at that time that Your Majesty had the opportunity. Your Highness, do you think Your Majesty will make the same mistake?
I wonder if Your Highness still remembers the Fourth Prince?"
Zou Li's words were earnest, and it seemed that he was planning for the eldest prince.
The death of the Fourth Prince was extremely strange, and it certainly could not have been done by the Netherworld Cult.
Even the eldest prince could guess that it might have been done by His Majesty.
What he wanted to say was that this was a lesson learned from the past.
If Zou Li wants to reach a position second only to the emperor, he can only help the eldest prince ascend the throne.
Similarly, if the eldest prince gave up, he didn't know whether the Emperor would take into account the blood relationship and let the eldest prince go.
But no matter what, these three counselors will definitely not survive.
Thinking of this, he looked at Chen Qun and Zhao Yan, but found that they were indifferent and seemed to be extremely calm.
He knew that these two people were smart and would understand the current situation, so he signaled them to speak.
Chen Qun and Zhao Yan looked at each other. They didn't expect such a thing to happen.
But unlike Zou Li, they have a way out.
If something goes wrong, there will naturally be someone to protect them.
But now, since His Highness has ignored the eldest prince's actions, it is obvious that he has acquiesced.
Then it would be no problem for them to give it a push. Thinking of this, Chen Qun bowed and said, "Your Highness, what Mr. Zou said makes sense.
Now that we have taken action, there is no turning back."
When the eldest prince heard Chen Qun say the same thing, he was a little hesitant, although he decided to give it a try.
However, the hesitation in his character still made him unsure about such an important matter.
However, I understand what the two of them said. But even if he doesn't let my father come out of seclusion, won't others let my father come out?
Zhao Yan seemed to understand the eldest prince's concerns and quickly comforted him, "Your Highness, please do not be too worried. This rebellion in Nanling is not necessarily a bad thing."
Upon hearing this, the eldest prince looked at Zhao Yan.
I also don't understand why the rebellion in Nanling is not a good thing for either Yu Dagan or myself.
Puzzled, he asked, "Please enlighten me, sir."
Zhao Yan smiled slightly, then placed some chess pieces on the table and said, "Nanling is in rebellion. If you want Your Majesty to continue his seclusion, then it must be Your Majesty who comes down to decide on the suppression of the rebellion.
In this process, we will be able to control officials more and have reasons to intervene in areas that are currently difficult to intervene in.”
When the eldest prince heard this, he was stunned and understood what Zhao Yan meant.
That is, in the name of suppressing the rebellion, those who are unwilling to surrender to the eldest prince can be accused of being unfavorable to the suppression of the rebellion. This is a big deal.
The eldest prince seemed to have thought of something and asked again, "Mr. Zou, how should we deal with Eighth Brother?"
When Zou Li heard this, he naturally understood that the eighth prince was the most difficult to deal with.
He stepped forward and volunteered, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I have my own way to deal with the Eighth Prince. I will personally go and persuade him."
Emperor Dagan certainly did not want to come out. If the two princes could prove that they could handle the Nanling rebellion, then Emperor Dagan would naturally not come out.
Breaking through the realm of heaven and man is more important than anything else.
When the Eighth Prince received the letter and read it, he couldn't help but shudder and muttered, "Nanling is rebelling?"
You have to know that it has been many years since Dagan rebelled so blatantly. What exactly does Nanling want to do?
Could it be that the old man from Nanling gave the instructions?
Countless questions filled the eighth prince's mind.
However, the old man Baihun, who was in his ring at this moment, snorted coldly. It seemed that someone else had set his eyes on the Dagan Dragon Vein.
Now the Dagan Dragon Vein is trying to break through. Unlike ordinary celestial beings, the dragon vein is very strong, but it also has moments of weakness.
Now is the best time for those who want to share the dragon vein to take action.
If we miss this opportunity and let it really break through to the third level of heaven and man, who can touch it then?
Those forces hiding elsewhere couldn't help but start taking action, but they didn't know who was behind Nanling.
Fairy Island? Dragon Palace? Or some other force hidden in the blessed land?
However, Old Man Baihun would not discuss these matters with the Eighth Prince in front of him.
The less the Eighth Prince knew, the easier it would be to control him.
The most troublesome thing at the moment is the bloodline power of the eighth prince. If the dragon vein is divided.
Naturally, this luck is gone, so the chance of taking over another person's body will be greater.
