A sudden rain came and went quickly, and after the rain stopped, a hint of azure appeared in the distant sky.

Walking on the official road in Luzhou, the air has become very fresh because of the rain, and it is mixed with the fragrance of soil.

Chu Mo had been away from Baisong Mountain for two days. At this moment, they had completely left Yuzhou and entered Luzhou.

At this time, a month has passed since the plan to kill Chu Guangquan. Ever since meeting Ren Woxing and other old friends, Chu Mo has been trying to stay again and again in response to their enthusiastic requests.

During this period, he drank and talked with Ren Woxing, Liao Wuming and others, and discussed spiritual practice; sometimes he went to Xuanling City to find Manager Hu and Duan Tianhang to reminisce about the past; sometimes he went into Baisong Mountain to hunt monsters and look for spiritual objects.

Time passed quickly, and the situation in the imperial capital was also changing rapidly.

Because of Tang Tiansheng's presence, the princes appeared to be friendly and respectful to each other on the surface, but secretly they had already torn their faces apart and wished that the other party would be doomed.

The eldest prince Tang Chengqian, with Tian Feng's advice and the support of the civil officials in the court, has already occupied half of the court.

In a luxurious palace, Tang Chengqian sat high above, with various delicacies and drinks placed in front of him.

On both sides below Tang Chengqian, there were eight people sitting together with Tian Feng. These people were implicitly led by Tian Feng and had the highest status among them. They were all counselors in Tang Chengqian's mansion.

"Bang--"

Tang Chengqian angrily put down the wine in his hand, and the wine splashed onto the table and wet Tang Chengqian's robe.

"I am so angry. Tang Chengge relied on the support of the military officers to oppose me in the court. Today, he embarrassed me in public. It is really abominable."

Facing Tang Chengqian's anger, Tian Feng sat aside without looking away, looking indifferent and having no intention of speaking.

Then Tang Chengqian looked down and said directly: "Mr. Chen Dian, do you have any reason to join this prince's officials recently?"

Chen Dianjun, who was named, stood up and said respectfully: "My Lord, we have already won over all the people in the court that we could. Some officials who remained neutral are now finding all kinds of excuses to refuse to meet us when they see us."

For a moment, Tang Chengqian felt a headache, then he looked respectfully at Tian Feng who was sitting beside him without saying a word, and said, "Sir, please tell me what we should do next. Please teach me?"

Tian Feng stood up slowly and said, "My lord, you will be the ruler of the world in the future. You should keep your emotions to yourself. Your behavior just now shows that you are not a wise ruler. You need to correct it. This is the first thing you should do."

"The second is that you should look at the world. There are many talented people in the world, just like the carp crossing the river. It depends on whether you want to use them or not."

He didn't say anything else after saying that, but just these few words made Tang Chengqian smile.

"Sir, you want me to select talented people from all over the world and support them secretly."

"This method is feasible, but it takes too long and the effect is not obvious enough. It won't help at all in a short period of time."

Hearing this, Tian Feng's eyes flashed with disdain, but he still pretended to be respectful and stood up and said, "No, my lord, you can let this method take its course. I mean, aren't there many idle officials in the world? Some of them have the same status and influence as the current officials in the court. My lord, you can try to win them over."

Tian Feng's words immediately brightened Tang Chengqian's expression. He looked at Chen Dianjun and said, "Chen Dianjun, I'll leave this matter to you. At the same time, you should compile a list of officials who have the hope of joining this prince's army."

Not only the eldest prince's side, the same thing was also happening to the second prince. Tang Chengge asked Yang Shiqi what to do?

The plan proposed by Yang Shiqi was similar to the one proposed by Tian Feng.

The third prince, Tang Chengze, originally supported the eldest prince, but unexpectedly he had always harbored a desire to dominate. After meeting Jia Xu, he no longer hid it and exposed it openly.

After breaking away from the eldest prince, he has been secretly winning over ministers. In addition, Jia Xu is also calculating people's hearts and minds, so Tang Chengze also has some supporters, but his strength is relatively weak.

Most of the people who supported the Third Prince also withdrew from the First Prince's army and joined him, and his own strength was completely incomparable to Tang Chengqian and Tang Chengge.

This is also the reason why it has chosen to lie dormant and wait for the opportunity.

At this time, the Fourth Prince's mansion was filled with joy, and the Fourth Prince Tang Chengbin was even more proud and cheerful.

The reason was that he had accomplished a great thing two days ago and had gained great credit, becoming the fourth prince to be crowned king.

He has not forgotten that he was the weakest among the princes and had no qualifications to compete for the throne. At that time, he did not dare to reveal any ambition. Once discovered by his brother, he would be killed without a burial place.

Then Tang Chengbin looked at the counselor Jia Xu who was following him. If it weren't for this counselor who allowed him to use the external force Qingqufang that he had developed before as a jumping-off point, he would have gathered a group of desperate criminals with a large sum of money and covered up their crimes with strategies.

Now Qingqufang has transformed and played a supporting role.

Jia Xu asked him to buy a manor. A large manor needs guards to protect its safety. He only needs to report to the government within the scope permitted by the law.

This creates conditions for raising private soldiers. A manor may have only dozens or hundreds of people, but the more manors there are, the stronger the power in one's hands.

Therefore, the manors under Tang Chengbin's control began to flourish everywhere and soon covered the surrounding area. If it were not for the limitation of money, Tang Chengbin felt that he could develop even faster. Fortunately, he had accumulated a lot of savings because of Qingqufang, otherwise, he would not have achieved such good results.

With a manor, we can also hide those desperate criminals who have gathered there, which is killing two birds with one stone.

With his current strength, he is already able to compete with the eldest prince Tang Chengqian and the second prince Tang Chengge, but a smart person would not expose himself so easily, and his home ground is not in the imperial capital or the court.

This is also the reason why he often avoids the limelight.

Some were happy and some were sad. In another place, in the mansion of the eighth prince Tang Chengxuan, he was seen to be furious.

The reason was that the Fourth Prince was successfully crowned king a few days ago, which meant that among the five princes vying for the throne, only Tang Chengxuan had not been crowned king. Fortunately, he did not have many followers, otherwise people would probably become uneasy.

Looking at the broken vases, jade and other things on the ground, I saw a figure appear in the eighth prince's room.

"What a pity that such a good thing was broken. How about cooperating with our Divine Punishment Organization? As long as Tang Tiansheng dies, our Divine Punishment Organization will push you to the throne of the emperor. How about this? This deal is very cost-effective."

"Why, don't you want to prove to the emperor that you are also capable of being an emperor?"

The Eighth Prince's pupils suddenly shrank, and then his eyes turned red as he said, "Okay, I can cooperate with you. What do you need me to do?"

The figure swayed slightly, and a deep voice said, "Welcome to join the Divine Punishment Organization. I wish us a pleasant cooperation. The organization's mission for you now is to cover our people and infiltrate our people into the inner city of the Imperial Capital."
