Chapter 150 "Xue Qinghe" in Action

Chapter 150 "Xue Qinghe" in Action
After returning to Tiandou City, Xue Ye, in a rage, immediately ordered Prince Xue Xing to thoroughly investigate the matter. The assassination of the emperor in the royal hunting ground almost resulted in the death of a prince. This was a blatant slap in the face of the Tiandou Empire and a provocation to the empire.

At the same time, in order to prevent accidents, he asked Di Hong to guard the palace to prevent further assassinations.

Only with the Titled Douluo around can he sleep peacefully.

Di Hong didn't care. Nothing would happen anyway as long as he was provided with food and drink. Qian Renxue must have successfully gone undercover and replaced Xue Qinghe. Although he couldn't see it, he could guess that the Spirit Hall made such a big fuss just to ensure Qian Renxue's success.

Since it was successful, there will be no more assassinations next time. Qian Renxue will not let Xue Ye die now. If Xue Ye dies, the empire will be in turmoil, which is not in line with the Spirit Hall's expected plan.

Moreover, Qian Renxue had just gone undercover, and Xue Qinghe had previously been a reserved and non-competitive person, which meant that basically no one supported him and he had no power. However, there were many marginal people who approached him, but Xue Qinghe had not accepted them before.

Qian Renxue must absorb this power, especially Wang Shen, who is the general of the Imperial Guard and is very important.

Wang Shen is Di Hong's undercover agent in the Imperial Guard. The reason why he became an undercover agent is very simple. During the Xue Yu Rebellion, he did make contributions, after all, he fought until the last moment. However, when it came to rewarding people for their merits afterwards, he had nothing to do with it.

Because his superior was a noble, he directly excluded him who was born in a commoner family. He was neither promoted nor demoted, which made him very dissatisfied. Originally, he was going to leave the Imperial Guard, but Di Hong sent a message to Di Ming to contact him.

Wang Shen didn't care. Since the Tiandou Empire was so unfair to him, he secretly defected to the Silves Kingdom. He also heard that the Silves Kingdom was good and was very good to generals like them who were of civilian origin. It didn't matter who he was loyal to.

For him, if this place doesn't want him, he'll find another place that will.

With Di Hong's secret help over the years, he was promoted and commanded an army of 10,000 people. His infiltration of the Imperial Guards began with this army. Many officers trained by the kingdom infiltrated the Imperial Guards in various ways.

As for the investigation, with Di Hong around, nothing can be found out.

These 10,000-strong imperial guards basically belong to their Di family.

It’s a pity that he couldn’t infiltrate the Royal Knights.

In the Royal Soul Master Corps, there are also many soul masters who follow the lead of Di Hong. After all, Di Hong is a Titled Douluo, but he puts himself aside and guides them in their cultivation and even corrects their shortcomings. How many Titled Douluos can do this?

Even Di Hong can personally help them obtain spirit rings.

After Qian Renxue went undercover, she started doing what a prince should do. In the identity of Xue Qinghe, she began to win over ministers and generals, moving towards the position of crown prince. However, none of the loyal officials of the empire paid any attention to Xue Qinghe. After all, didn't they know what you were like before?

The ministers were more supportive of the second prince Xue Luochuan. Although the second prince was young, he had a good reputation and was popular among the people. Therefore, the important officials of the empire tended to favor the second prince and did not support Xue Qinghe at all.

However, Xue Qinghe was not discouraged. After all, the crown prince had not yet been appointed, and no one knew who would become the final crown prince, so he chose to win over those more marginalized officials and generals, especially those who had been rejected when they had offered to serve him.

Faced with Xue Qinghe's sudden attempt to win them over, Wang Shen and the others were a little confused. They had been rejected before when they proposed to join him, so why was he suddenly trying to win them over now?

But it doesn't matter, I'm just following orders.

So the two sides colluded with each other with their own purposes.

Just like that, a year has passed.

Inside Yuexuan.

Di Hong is teaching Di Yuan.

Now Di Yuan is twelve years old, but his soul power level has reached level thirty-five. Although it is somewhat inferior to Di Hong back then, don't forget that Di Hong is at the innate level twenty, while Di Yuan is at the innate level ten.

After teaching for a while, he walked aside and sat down.

Tang Yuehua came over and saw that he was looking outside, so she asked, "Are you thinking about appointing a crown prince?"

"Yes." Di Hong nodded.

"I really didn't expect that Xue Ye would ask for my opinion on something like this."

Yesterday, Xue Ye summoned several important officials and Emperor Hong to discuss the appointment of a crown prince. Almost all the important officials chose to support the second prince. They thought that the second prince would be the best, and Xue Ye also preferred the second prince Xue Luochuan. Emperor Hong did not express his opinion at first, but Xue Ye asked him. Emperor Hong did not give a direct answer, but told Xue Ye tactfully that he preferred the eldest prince.

Xue Ye did not express his opinion immediately.

In the Imperial Palace, inside Xue Qinghe's bedroom.

He stood alone by the window, looking outside, but his mind was not here at all.

A black-clad soul master behind him knelt on one knee and reported to him that the academy had discussed the appointment of a crown prince yesterday.

Xue Qinghe frowned slightly after listening to this.

"Father actually thinks so highly of my second brother."

What surprised him even more was that Di Hong actually expressed his support for him implicitly. This was very intriguing. You know, Di Hong never got involved in such things before, but why did he choose to support him this time?

In the royal family, it is very taboo to take sides easily, and his own power is not strong, and most of the ministers support Xue Luochuan.

But he doesn't need to think so much. Since Di Hong is on his side, he has to make good use of it.

"Since you support my second brother so much, we can only make him disappear."

After letting his men leave, he prepared to take action.

As for Xue Luochuan, we cannot kill him directly, we can only poison him. Since it is poisoning, it will be much simpler. However, the only person we have to be wary of is Di Hong, especially the existence of Dugu Bo under Di Hong. Poison Douluo is best at using poison.

So you have to be cautious.

He soon came up with a plan.

The next day, Xue Qinghe left the palace and went to Yuexuan. Coincidentally, Di Hong was in Yuexuan and did not go to the palace.

He was a little surprised to see Xue Qinghe coming.

"Your Highness is such a rare guest." The meaning of his words was very clear. Xue Qinghe hadn't been to Yuexuan for nearly a year.

"Qinghe has been very busy recently, please forgive me, Uncle Di." Xue Qinghe apologized quickly, he did overlook this point.

Di Hong waved his hand indifferently: "Now is a critical moment, it's better to be busy."

"But if you come to Yuexuan now, aren't you afraid that the Second Prince will seize the opportunity?"

"The ministers all support him."

Xue Qinghe looked indifferent: "I don't care. My second brother is indeed excellent and more suitable than me. If my second brother becomes the crown prince, then Qinghe will live in Yuexuan. As long as Uncle Di and Aunt Yuehua don't mind Qinghe's bothering me, it will be fine."

"Stay wherever you want, it's like being at home."

"Are you planning to stay for a few days this time?" Di Hong asked.

Xue Qinghe nodded slightly: "Yes, there have been too many things going on recently, so I just want to hide away for some quiet time."

Di Hong looked at him deeply and smiled meaningfully.

"You came at the right time. Yuan'er just happened to not be practicing. You two can meet and get to know each other better."

"Okay." Xue Qinghe agreed. He really wanted to meet Di Yuan.
