NOVEL WEB Chapter 734: Prepare to wrap up!
The return of the Third Prince gave Mingdu a shot in the arm, letting people know that the Sun-Moon Empire still had a future and dispelling the panic caused by the destruction of the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and Mingde Hall.
But when some people are happy, others are worried.
The most worried were naturally the people in the Prince's faction. So, under the call of the Prince's staff, the people in the Prince's faction secretly gathered in the Prince's faction and held a small meeting.
The information that Xu Tianran is dead has not yet spread.
On the one hand, the only person in the palace who knew about this matter, the Queen, no longer cared about these people outside. Now the Queen and the Imperial Concubine were arguing fiercely.
With the return of the third prince, the Queen's side gradually fell into a disadvantage. The Queen knew that she might not be able to escape, but she did not want to accept her fate. Instead, she wanted to go crazy, not to save her life, but to avenge Xu Tianran. I don't know what he is planning in secret.
The queen, like Yu Manwu back then, went crazy after her son died.
On the other hand, this incident was also intentional by Kong Deming and others, in order to unite the originally powerful prince forces and finally solve the problem together.
The Sun-Moon Empire can no longer afford to experience major turmoil. When it comes to the Third Prince's succession to the throne, all uneasy factors must be resolved with thundering means, and no future troubles should be left behind.
After the meeting was held in the Prince's Mansion, the number of nobles and officials who finally attended the meeting was far less than before. It was obvious that many people had left the Prince's influence.
It has been a long time since we last heard from Xu Tianran, and people are already feeling depressed.
But those who left were not core members, and their influence on the prince's power was not as great as imagined.
Fortunately, this meeting brought together the scattered people's hearts and allowed the remaining people to regain hope.
Because the staff of the Prince's Mansion took out the Prince's handwritten letter, which included arrangements for them. The Prince also revealed that he had broken through to the Titled Douluo and was practicing outside.
The most important thing is that the prince's seal on the envelope is authentic.
Finally, all the people from the prince's faction left with confidence, and began to lie in wait in secret as the letter said, waiting for Xu Tianran's return as a king.
When everyone left, the Prince's staff who were holding the meeting also took off their disguises.
The handsome man turned into a sweet woman in the blink of an eye. It was Orange.
Orange was the only one left in the study.
Then a ghost figure emerged from the shadows and transformed into a woman, it was Nana.
After all, Orange did not give up on winning over Nana, and Nana accepted Orange's invitation and has now become Orange's personal force.
In order to win Nana's heart, Juzi took off her disguise and revealed some of her true self in front of Nana, letting Nana know her abilities and ambitions.
"Senior Orange, the fake letter has temporarily stabilized them, but this is not a long-term solution. What should we do next?" Nana asked curiously.
In Nana's eyes, Orange is a chess piece secretly placed by Xu Tianran, but this chess piece does not seem to be content.
"Don't worry, I have a new plan. Next, you just need to continue to help me attract outstanding students from various colleges in Mingdu and find out the news in Mingdu." Orange said with a smile.
The reason why Nana was able to gain Orange's trust so quickly was because Nana was indeed capable and had already attracted many outstanding students from the former Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy to her.
He even found out a lot of secret information in Mingdu for her.
Of course, it’s also because Nana is smart enough and never a talkative person.
"Okay." Nana nodded without saying anything more or asking any more questions.
Winning over others and gathering intelligence were Nana's specialties. After practicing several exclusive skills given to her by the Death Messenger, Nana could move through the shadows like a ghost, making it easier to gather intelligence. She also had methods specifically targeting souls, which could distort other people's cognition and easily gain their favor and make them loyal.
After communicating with Orange, Nana left quietly again.
Orange was left alone, not knowing what he was thinking about.
In fact, what Orange didn’t tell Nana was that the letter was real!
Xu Tianran did come back secretly, but he only saw her. After that, Xu Tianran did not stay for long, but left the letter, some arrangements, and the prince's seal, and then left again.
After a brief contact, Orange confirmed that Xu Tianran had broken through to the Titled Douluo level.
What concerned Juzi was what Xu Tianran said to her before he left - when he stood up again, he would return as a king with a strength that surpassed everyone else.
"Surpass everyone's strength?" Orange murmured to himself.
Juzi doesn't care whether Xu Tianran can stand up again. She only cares about Xu Tianran's strength, whether he can really return as a king and ascend the throne.
Because if Orange wants revenge on the Star Luo Empire, she must have someone sitting in that position to support her behind her.
Then Orange thought of the strength displayed by his original clone that night.
Orange suddenly lost confidence in Xu Tianran.
So Orange also has to consider her way out, she must also master her own power, Nana is just the beginning.
And with the prince's seal, it can be said that this letter is a genuine letter, so all future letters will also be genuine letters!
The ambition for power emerged in Orange's eyes.
……
After the Third Prince returned to Mingdu and stabilized the situation, he immediately launched a major operation. His target was naturally the underground forces!
The conflicts and emotions within Mingdu now need an outlet, and the inherently evil underground forces are the best target.
The first to be affected is Ghost Street.
The city defense army rushed into Ghost Street and encircled and eliminated all underground forces in Ghost Street. Members of those underground forces were either killed on the spot or thrown into jail. All seized property was divided between the Third Prince and the Empire in a 3:7 ratio, with the Third Prince taking 70%.
Who has an opinion? Who dares to have an opinion?
Ask the legion under the Third Prince whether they agree or not.
Fortunately, there is some profit to be made, so the various forces don't say much.
What's more, the Third Prince really wanted to take action. The Xishui League and Ya Ge of the Holy Spirit Church, and the Ordinary League of the royal family were not spared.
It is true that some members of the royal family disagreed with this, but their opinions could not get beyond the royal family. The prince in charge of the royal family forcefully suppressed all dissenting voices.
Although Tang Ya wanted to save Xishui League and Ya Ge, she was powerless in the face of the power of the Sun and Moon Empire.
Fortunately, Tang Ya, the second-generation leader of the Xishui Alliance, and the first-generation leader of the Ya Ge Pavilion, were not affected, and Tang Ya's subordinates also evacuated first with a lot of resources.
What surprised many people was that not only the leader of the Xishui League was not caught, but the leader of the Pingfan League was not caught either.
Shangguan Wei'er, the leader of the Ordinary Alliance, also took a sum of resources with her and fled from the underground forces. She disappeared without a trace. Shangguan Wei'er even took away more resources.
So, when Ghost Street was being raided, the remaining high-ranking members of the Ordinary Alliance were still meeting together to discuss how to search for Shangguan Weiler. As a result, all the high-ranking members who were meeting together were wiped out by the city defense forces.
While the third prince was busy looting, Huo Yuhao was also busy.
We are about to leave the Sun-Moon Empire, and there is less than a month left, so some resources can be harvested.
Start with side quest 1 and complete it.
Side Quest 1: Cholera Harem!
All four imperial concubines have been captured.
So, that night, Huo Yuhao came to the Imperial Concubine's palace.
