"Second Prince?" Nie Tian was slightly startled and said, "Who is this?"
Gu Wuyou sighed and said: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince is the second legitimate son of His Majesty the Emperor, and he is also the only person in Da Chu who can compete with His Highness the Crown Prince. The Second Prince has a high position and is the commander of the Royal Guards of Da Chu. Moreover, he is exceptionally talented, proficient in political strategy, and very good at winning over people's hearts. Many dignitaries of Chu are attached to His Highness the Second Prince."
"Oh?" Nie Tian smiled faintly and said, "According to what you said, this second prince should be much better than that bullshit prince, so why didn't your emperor let him be the prince, and instead let an arrogant second prince do it? Prince. If you leave an empire in the hands of a heir who is almost an idiot, your emperor should not be so stupid."
According to what Gu Wuyou said, this second prince should be hundreds of times stronger than the prince Weng Haorui.
Although these imperial princes will consider establishing the eldest son, if the eldest son is not good enough and the other princes are very outstanding, they will also consider establishing other princes as princes.
This is the situation in Da Chu. The second prince is obviously much stronger than the prince, and he is also the legitimate son.
If the emperor of Chu had any brains at all, he should have appointed the second prince as heir apparent.
"Alas!" Gu Wuyou sighed softly and said, "Three years ago, His Majesty the Emperor did consider making the second prince the Crown Prince. But then, I don't know what happened. His Majesty the Emperor suddenly changed his mind and suddenly declared the eldest prince the Crown Prince. Crown Prince."
"Are there no objections from other forces?" Nie Tian asked.
For a large empire, establishing a crown prince is definitely a major event related to the fate of the empire. There will definitely be interference from all forces in the empire.
Just like the previous Blue Cloud Empire, the battle for the crown prince between Lan Bingchen and Lan Bingye must take into account the attitudes of the Blue Cloud Chamber of Commerce, the Alchemist Guild, Ba Yun Academy and other forces.
The Da Chu Empire was far more powerful than the Lan Yun Empire, and its internal power struggle was bound to be more complicated.
The emperor suddenly appointed an incompetent and very stupid prince as the crown prince. People from all parties would definitely not agree with this suicidal decision.
"Alas!" Gu Wuyou sighed again and said, "You don't know something. The Crown Prince was not like this three years ago. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time was mediocre in talent, he was kind to the people and extremely resourceful. The prince also needs to win the support of all forces. However, after he became the prince, he seemed to have suddenly changed into a different person. He was arrogant and domineering, doing whatever he wanted, indulging his subordinates and doing evil. Anyone who opposed him was killed by him. "
"Huh?" Nie Tian frowned and said, "This is too outrageous. He hasn't become an emperor yet, but he has become a prince, and his violent character has been revealed. If he became an emperor, wouldn't he be even more cruel? No way. The emperor is not stupid, so why can’t he be replaced by the prince?"
"Alas!" Gu Wuyou sighed again and again, wrinkles forming on his face, and said: "After His Majesty the Emperor established the Crown Prince three years ago, he retired to the harem and let His Majesty the Crown Prince supervise the country's administration. In the past year, even more so. It’s rare to see His Majesty the Emperor show up, and even I haven’t seen His Majesty for a long time.”
Hearing this, Nie Tian's brows furrowed even more tightly, as he could smell a hint of conspiracy.
The emperor suddenly appointed a crown prince and then suddenly retreated to the harem. The prince's personality suddenly changed.
So many people suddenly come together, it seems a bit weird and sudden.
Nie Tian asked again: "Even if the emperor cannot change the prince, with the prince's ability, a second prince can play him submissively. Will the second prince make him a stable prince?"
The prince's lack of virtue caused a lot of complaints. It would be fine if the other princes were incompetent. But the second prince Gu Wuyou said was obviously not simple. How could he allow the prince to continue to be so arrogant and just unite with several major forces to force the prince to abdicate.
Nie Tian had dealt with Weng Haorui several times, and it was obvious that this guy had absolutely no brains. It is impossible to fight against the second prince. He is not at all like the extremely manipulative prince Gu Wuyou said in the past.
Gu Wuyou shook his head slightly and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is deeply supported by the Imperial Master. With the Imperial Master personally protecting him, other princes cannot touch him."
"National Preceptor?" Nie Tian was stunned and asked, "Who is this?"
Gu Wuyou said: "The Imperial Master is the most mysterious person in our Da Chu. When he came to Da Chu three years ago, no one except His Majesty the Emperor has seen the true face of the Imperial Master."
"Three years ago?" Nie Tian couldn't help but become wary when he heard this time.
Because he remembered that the emperor established the crown prince three years ago, and this national advisor also appeared three years ago. This couldn't be a coincidence.
Nie Tian never believed in coincidences. He believed that everything that seemed to be coincidences had hidden mysteries inside.
From what Gu Wuyou said, Nie Tian always felt that there was a strong atmosphere of conspiracy.
The royal family is like the sea, and the royal family relationship is the weakest. Who knows what kind of dirty transactions are hidden behind the heavy curtains in the palace.
"General Gu, I want to ask you something." Nie Tian suddenly thought of something.
"City Lord Nie Tian, please speak." Gu Wuyou's attitude towards Nie Tian was more respectful.
"Have you ever heard of an organization called Ling Xuantian Pavilion?" Nie Tian asked.
"Ling Xuantian Pavilion!" When Gu Wuyou heard the name, uncontrollable anger appeared in his eyes, and the anger all over his body burned.
Nie Tian, Duanmulu, and Goudan were all stunned, wondering what was going on with Gu Wuyou.
Gu Wuyou said nothing, but took out a token.
"Death Token!" Nie Tian took a closer look and saw that the token in Gu Wuyou's hand was actually the Death Token from Ling Xuantian Pavilion, and it was made of silver. There was no doubt that it was a silver-level Death Token.
"Are you also someone who is favored by the God of Death?" Nie Tian's face darkened, and a token appeared in his hand, which was exactly the same as the token in Gu Wuyou's hand.
The token in Nie Tian's hand was issued by Wen Hao, but the latter did not expect that Nie Tian actually blocked his killing sword, so Nie Tian escaped temporarily.
But where did the Death Order in Gu Wuyou's hand come from?
Gu Wuyou looked at Nie Tian with a strange look and asked, "Where did you get your Death Order?"
Nie Tian was stunned, thinking that the other party thought he was the killer of Ling Xuantian Pavilion, and quickly explained: "I offended someone before, and that person invited the killer of Ling Xuantian Pavilion. He killed a bronze-level killer before, and now the Death Order has been upgraded. It’s become Silver level.”
Gu Wuyou stared at Nie Tian and finally confirmed that the latter was not lying.
A look of pain appeared on her face, as if she had thought of something, and she said after a long time: "The Death Order in my hand was obtained from the corpses of my parents. They died in front of me, holding tightly in their hands. Hold on to this token."
Nie Tian's eyes changed slightly, and he was quite surprised.
There is no doubt that Gu Wuyou's parents died at the hands of the Lingxuan Tiange killers!
