Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"He guessed it, Fang Yuanjian already knows that I am the one behind this, so it's no big deal if Hua Yunhong knows it."

"I see."

Elder Song immediately notified Xuanfeng and found Chu Ying.

"Boss Chu, His Majesty hopes you will visit the Shenmu Kingdom."

Hearing this request, Chu Ying said in surprise:

"Elder Xuanfeng, haven't I been operating in the Shenmu Kingdom recently? We have already identified dozens of routes and stabilized them."

Qin Ming and Fang Yuanjian met a few days ago.

Fang Yuanjian was almost at his wit's end and even had difficulty paying for the goods.

In this situation, he could only find Qin Ming for help.

But getting help is not that easy.

After the two reached some unknown agreement, Qin Ming arranged for secret guards to send him away.

Even some elders within the Datong sect didn't even know that Fang Yuanjian had been there.

Chu Ying didn't know any of this and thought Xuanfeng was going to arrange for him to go to the Shenmu Kingdom again.

Seeing this, Elder Xuanfeng said:

"It's not to support Fang Yuanjian, but to represent the Datong Sect and talk to Hua Yunhong to stop him from interfering in the affairs of the Western Regions."

"Are they going to interfere in the Western Regions?"

Chu Ying was shocked and immediately felt something was wrong.

He heard about Fang Yuanjian's defeat and thought that the Datong Sect might stop trading with Fang Yuanjian in the future.

However, he did not expect that the impact of Fang Yuanjian's defeat would be so great.

Hua Yunhong didn't even have time to rest before he pointed the finger at the Datong Sect.

"But... hasn't Daqian officially joined yet? Why are they intervening from such a distance?"

"Could it be that Hua Yunhong knew about the Datong Sect's recent alliance with Fang Yuanjian?"

He was a little confused. Even if he knew that they were providing supplies to Fang Yuanjian, it would be impossible for them to directly mobilize troops.

They want to intervene in the Western Regions, but His Majesty hasn't given the nod, so why are they in such a hurry?

"Your Majesty means that you should talk to Hua Yunhong on his behalf and the Datong Sect."

Having said that, Elder Xuanfeng paused and added with a serious expression:

"It would be best if they could withdraw their troops. If they can't, the Datong Sect won't back down on them."

When Chu Ying heard that Qin Ming arranged for him to go on his behalf, he suddenly felt a little frightened.

The opportunity to decide the relationship between the two major forces is in his own hands.

Chu Ying was under tremendous pressure.

It would be a bit of a stretch to ask a businessman like him to do this kind of thing.

But Chu Ying had already heard some intention of cultivating himself from Elder Xuanfeng's words.

Especially since the other party mentioned His Majesty.

It seems that Qin Ming intends to cultivate me.

This is an opportunity.

He has always known how to seize opportunities.

"I understand. What is our goal? Where is the bottom line? How much can I promise them?"

Chu Ying is a very meticulous person, and he always plans things carefully before taking action.

After deciding to go, I prepared to see how many resources I could mobilize.

Elder Xuanfeng said:

"You can make this judgment based on the current strength of the Datong Sect. Remember, you represent the entire Datong Sect."

This time, under Qin Ming's instructions, Elder Xuanfeng has given the other party enough power.

Qin Ming was also worried about the pressure that would be put on them after the Shenmu Kingdom got involved.

It would be best if we could get rid of them.

If it cannot be resolved, the Datong sect may have to withstand the soldiers of both sides and win the war with great losses.

"Your Majesty...you trust me so much."

Chu Ying was so excited that he was a little at a loss for a moment.

I thought that it would take some time to join the Datong sect and reach a high position based on my own abilities.

However, the trust Qin Ming showed at this time and the power he gave made him feel a lot of identification with the Datong Sect.

Thinking of this, Chu Ying immediately made a serious promise:

"Don't worry, Elder Xuanfeng. I will definitely not allow the Shenmu Kingdom to send troops this time!"

"Well, don't force yourself when you encounter difficulties. Just do your best."

Xuanfeng patted his shoulder and gave him some advice.

A few days later.

In Shenmu City, the imperial capital of Shenmu Kingdom.

A team of fast horses quickly entered the palace.

They passed through layers of palace walls and soon arrived outside a large hall.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor of Daqian has already replied."

"Bring it in."

A weak voice was heard in the hall. It was the voice of Emperor Shenmu, who had long been terminally ill.

Soon, the letter was brought into the hall.

Sitting next to the old emperor lying on the sickbed was Hua Yunhong. Since the old emperor's health had been deteriorating, the entire Shenmu Kingdom had finally welcomed a new ruler.

Although he has not officially boarded the plane yet, everyone now knows that Hua Yunhong is the next emperor of the Shenmu Kingdom.

Hua Yunhong thought the same, so his daily job was to stay with the old emperor to help review memorials and handle state affairs, so as to adapt to the rhythm of managing the country in advance.

After seeing the letter, the old emperor had no intention of reading it.

He just stretched out his hand weakly and pointed at Hua Yunhong beside him.

The guards immediately handed the document to Hua Yunhong.

"Father, Daqian has replied. Qin Ming refuses to allow us to interfere in the affairs of the Western Regions."

After reading the letter, a look of surprise appeared on Hua Yunhong's face.

He was very considerate of Qin Ming by informing him in advance that he was going to join forces with the Western Region coalition forces, and he took into account the relationship between the two parties.

Since we have both the substance and the appearance, they probably won't say much.

But Qin Ming directly told Hua Yunhong in the letter not to interfere in the struggle in the Western Regions.

This is a bit too broad. After all, the Shenmu Kingdom is not a vassal state of Daqian.

They don't need Qin Ming's approval to make any decision.

"You decide."

The old emperor turned over, his voice weak and his words a little unclear.

"Yes."

With a bit of anger, Hua Yunhong stood up from beside the old emperor.

Then he strode out of the door and went straight to the military headquarters.

The general of the Shenmu Kingdom was named Mu Liuming.

He has made many military achievements over the years and is a powerful figure. He is also one of the people who supports Hua Yunhong the most.

Mu Liuming personally dealt with many of the small countries around him.

This is how the vast dynasty of Shenmu Kingdom was created.

"Your Highness, is it time to take action?"

Mu Liuming, who was waiting in the military headquarters, immediately noticed something unusual when he saw Hua Yunhong coming to him angrily, so he started to ask.

Hua Yunhong informed Mu Liuming that Qin Ming refused them to join forces with the Western Region coalition forces.

When he heard this, Mu Liuming raised a disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth.

"I remember there's an old saying in Daqian: 'The sky is high and the emperor is far away.' Even the emperor can't control those far away, let alone our dynasty, which is thousands of miles away from them."

"Does this person think that Daqian is invincible and wants to interfere in our affairs?"
