C314 Pushing the Palace
Although the number of spies hiding in the courtyard of Zhengyang and Unitive Controlling Mansion was not large, the demand for resources was gradually increasing.
It was the same whether it was cultivation resources or strategic resources. The amount of resources needed was fundamental. It was not something that could be enjoyed by just a few people. It was obvious that they wanted to give it to other people.
However, who could they give it to?
The identities of the few spies who infiltrated Unitive Controlling Mansion and Zhengyang's courtyard were not high, and they did not need to pay anyone. What was the use of so many resources?
Unless. . .
They were given to Zheng Tianyang.
When Chu Yun saw those orders, he already had a plan in his mind and confirmed some things.
The organization had planted spies in so many major powers except for Zheng Tianyang and Unitive Controlling Mansion. Such a huge demand for resources was enough to explain the problem.
Who would believe that this was just a coincidence? The spies in those two places needed such a huge amount of resources. They must be given to Zheng Tianyang or Unitive Controlling Mansion for their use. Otherwise, it wouldn't be reasonable.
This also exposed the fact that Zheng Tianyang was related to this organization.
Chu Yun had long suspected this. Now that he had sensed the flow of this special material, he was even more certain of his guess.
Without any hesitation, Chu Yun went straight to the Princess Qi Mansion to discuss this matter with Prince Cheng De.
"Uncle, look. These are the resources needed by the two groups of spies in Unitive Controlling Mansion and Zhengyang's courtyard. Putting everything else aside, more than eighty Earthly Grade Thunder Talismen have been used. The rest of the cultivation resources are even more ridiculous. "
Chu Yun placed the sorted list in front of Prince Cheng De's table and took a deep breath. There is no need to doubt it. Zheng Tianyang is definitely related to this organization. He has even completely fallen for them. Do you remember what I said before? As long as this is confirmed. We should strike first and strike first to remove the nail on Zheng Tianyang's head. We don't want them to cooperate with the organization and overturn the fate of Celestial Secret Dynasty by supporting the Third Prince. We should shake the foundation of the Celestial Secret Dynasty. "
After saying that, Prince Cheng De looked at the order carefully for a while. Then he nodded and said, "The facts are like this. There is no room for debate. In the end, that Zheng Tianyang still fell to that organization. It is heartbreaking. . . "
"What does uncle plan to do? If he wanted to make the first move and capture Zheng Tianyang, then he would have to make the first move. I'm afraid it won't be easy to rely on the two of us. According to the information I've gathered, Zheng Tianyang is always with the Third Prince. There are many experts protecting him. "
"Since we have decided to deal with Zheng Tianyang, we will stand on the opposite side of the Third Prince's faction. Since that's the case, we must win over the power of the Crown Prince's faction for our own use. . . "
Prince Cheng De replied as if it was a matter of course.
"You are talking about Imperial Advisor, right?"
Chu Yun couldn't help but smile and guess.
Prince Cheng De nodded and said, "Of course it is him. In fact, he had already guessed something these days. Now that he has confirmed that Zheng Tianyang is related to that organization, it's better to inform him about this matter. It will give Chen Dusheng enough reason to mobilize the Imperial Court's forces to surround and kill Zheng Tianyang. "
After saying that, Chu Yun nodded and was about to say something. Outside the study room, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded.
"Your Highness, it's bad! The Third Prince is rebelling!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two people in the study looked at each other. They could see the surprise in each other's eyes.
Then. Steward Qi ran into the study in a hurry, panting heavily. He pointed at the door and said, "The Third Prince has rebelled. He is now leading a large number of warriors and important officials of the Imperial Court to force the palace into submission. . . "
As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Cheng De suddenly stood up and walked out.
Although this news had a strong impact on him, he didn't doubt whether what Steward Qi said was true or not. With his trust in Steward Qi, he knew that it must be true. Old Qi wouldn't joke about this matter.
However, if this wasn't a joke. . . Then this matter was really too big. It was so big that it was almost impossible to cover the sky.
When he saw Prince Cheng De rushing out of the door, Chu Yun followed closely behind. He immediately followed Prince Cheng De to the direction of the Imperial Palace.
Not long after they got close, the two of them could already feel some extremely powerful Qi colliding in the direction of the Imperial Palace. Among them, the Qi of a Nirvana Stage warrior had become weaker. What they really cared about was the terrifying Qi of a few Fate Wheel Stage warriors.
Normally, existences at this level. . . If it wasn't for the fact that they were in the Imperial Court, it would be very difficult for ordinary people to see one in their entire lives. But now, it was like a pile of cabbage that didn't need money. They gathered in the royal palace and faced each other. Even if they did not make a move against each other. . . The aura they emitted was enough to make people tremble in fear.
Without a doubt, what Steward Qi said was true. The Third Prince had already led his subordinates to force the palace to abdicate.
Chu Yun, who had been hiding in the organization, paid more attention to the situation of the organization. As for the Third Prince's side, they were weaker and had no idea about many things. At this moment, Regarding the Third Prince's excited actions, Chu Yun had been waiting for this moment. Without any warning, the Third Prince faced a situation where he was forced to use force.
"Wrong, wrong. . . You're walking in the wrong direction. . . "
Prince Cheng De's expression was solemn. He kept muttering to himself. A trace of pain and confusion could be seen in his eyes. It seemed like he couldn't believe that the Third Prince would do such a crazy thing without any mercy. He didn't even leave any way out.
As a prince, there were no other words that could describe this scene except for revolting when the Emperor was in critical condition.
The crime of rebellion was the most serious crime in the Law of Celestial Secret Dynasty. Even relatives of the royal family could not escape death.
In other words, when the Third Prince made this decision, whether he succeeded or not, it was between him and the Crown Prince. In the end, there would definitely be one person who would die here.
If the Third Prince lost, he would be sentenced to death according to the law. And if he won, the Third Prince would definitely not leave behind the root of trouble, the Crown Prince, and would also eradicate him.
Without a doubt, this was the scene Prince Cheng De was most unwilling to see. The back of his palm was full of flesh. The death of any side was the greatest sorrow to him.
At this moment, in the Imperial Palace.
Surrounded by a grand formation, two groups of people were facing each other with hostility.
One of them was defending within the grand formation. On the other side, they were bombarding the barrier of the Formation with ferocious attacks. Dozens of experts attacked at the same time. The weakest amongst them was at least at the Nirvana stage, and there were also a few Fate Wheel Stage experts among them.
"Third brother, do you know what you are doing?"
Within the barrier, a young man with a beard was looking at the crowd outside the Formation with an ugly expression. His eyes were filled with hatred and mixed emotions as he looked at a handsome and extraordinary young man.
The brothers in the royal family could be said to be the most complicated brotherly relationship in the world. The two of them were the same mother. When they were young, they didn't understand anything. Their relationship was extremely good, but ever since they understood what the throne was and what the crown prince was, everything changed.
Although they did not know when it started, the relationship between the two of them had changed from being close to each other to being friendly on the surface. In their hearts, they wished that the other party could die earlier.
They were brothers!
"Boss, I didn't want things to develop to this point. But who asked you to be so weak and stubborn? Why do you have to defend something that you can't?"
The Third Prince looked at the Crown Prince within the barrier and laughed coldly. He said, "If you were more aware, you should have given up your position earlier. I don't mind sparing your life, and. . . Don't pretend to be innocent, as if you are a good person. Don't think that I don't know, your subordinates are also advising. . . Should I forcefully attack my Ming King Manor? I was merely more well-prepared. I'm just making the first move to gain the upper hand. "

“. . . ”
The Crown Prince's expression was tense and ugly.
The continuous friction between the two parties had caused him to harbor evil intentions in his heart. On top of that, there were indeed people among his aides who suggested that the Third Prince should be dealt with by force.
The Crown Prince was indeed tempted by this method, but he had many concerns too. Firstly, he was afraid that he would not be able to catch the Crown Prince in one fell swoop if he was not sufficiently prepared. Secondly, he was afraid that he would not be able to catch the Crown Prince in one fell swoop. Secondly, as the Crown Prince, he was the legitimate one. If he did something that was out of line, even if he ascended to the throne in the future, he would still be criticized by others for harming his brothers and his reputation would be tarnished.
"Where is Imperial Advisor? Why isn't he here yet?"
The Crown Prince looked at the aide beside him and his expression became uglier and uglier. The Third Prince's sudden attack on the Imperial Palace had exceeded everyone's expectations. The Atlas Jade Pillar on the Crown Prince's side had coincidentally returned to the competition during this period of time to retrieve an important item.
Or rather. . .
It was also the Third Prince's side. After learning that Imperial Advisor had left, they dared to launch a sudden attack at this period of time and use force to force the Crown Prince to abdicate.
In terms of strength, The Third Prince's side was slightly stronger than the Crown Prince's. Now that Imperial Advisor was not with the Crown Prince, the difference in strength between them was even greater.
As a result, from the beginning of the attack until now, the Crown Prince had been hiding in the Imperial Palace, relying on the power of the Formation to stall for time, not daring to accept the challenge.
"Your Highness, Imperial Advisor has been coming and going since he left for the capital. It'll take at least four or five days, and it's only been two days since we left. That place can be back so soon. . . "
The aide smiled bitterly. His heart was also filled with despair and anxiety. Imperial Advisor was not around. There was a huge gap in their top level combat strength.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Following a series of intense attacks, under the full force of a few Fate Wheel Stage warriors, the Formation was on the verge of collapse. Cracks had already appeared on its surface, and it was spreading rapidly.
It was obvious that this Formation had not been used for many years. Even though it had been maintained, its power was still not as strong as before. After enduring such a strong impact, it was on the verge of breaking.
In the crowd, the corners of the Third Prince's lips gradually curled up, and an extremely cold smile appeared on his face.
. . . "Stop!"
At that moment, a yell came from outside the palace.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, and a trace of surprise appeared in their eyes, because the person who had just arrived was Prince Cheng De.
The reason why everyone was surprised was that Prince Cheng De had always maintained a neutral position in the competition for the throne. Whether it was the Crown Prince or the Third Prince, both of them had gone to the Princess Qi Mansion to find him, hoping that he could provide them with support and help, but in the end, Prince Cheng De had clearly rejected them.
However, no one had expected that the Third Prince would come to the Imperial Palace to force him to abdicate. This old prince couldn't sit still any longer.
. . . "Imperial Uncle!"
The Crown Prince's face was filled with joy. He stood inside the Formation like an ant with a burning heart, but now he saw hope in his despair.
The Third Prince immediately frowned. The Prince Cheng De of the past was an existence that could add flowers to a brocade, but now that he had achieved his goal, there was only the possibility of him disrupting the situation.
"Third Brother, you did something wrong. "
Prince Cheng De stood alone in front of the palace gates, staring at the Third Prince and said in a deep voice.
"I don't understand what Imperial Uncle said. "
The Third Prince calmly shook his head and said, "The throne of the Emperor. It's not as simple as sitting there and enjoying life. You need to work hard for the welfare of the people. Currently, the Celestial Secret Dynasty is plagued with internal and external problems, and there are strong enemies lurking around. The natural disasters and man-made disasters were unceasing, and it was the most critical moment. You needed a capable emperor to lead the people through this darkness. What do you think? Between the boss and me, who is more suitable for this candidate?"
After saying that, Prince Cheng De sighed and said, "If you don't want to fight for it, Celestial Secret Dynasty won't have any internal problems. We can only work together to eliminate the enemies outside. If you want to fight for it, Celestial Secret Dynasty will fall into a situation of internal and external problems. Don't you understand? "
"Hehe!"
When the Third Prince heard this, he immediately let out a cold laugh. He pointed at the Crown Prince who was holed up in the Formation and said, "If you want me to fight for it and give the throne to such a weak and cowardly trash, you can ask him whether he is worthy or not. If he was really smart, he would have given up the throne long ago, so as to prevent me from fighting for it! "
After he finished speaking, the Third Prince waved his sleeve. He said, "Imperial Uncle, these useless things. . . I can't be bothered to talk to you anymore. I've already done it. It's right in front of you. We're family. I don't want to stain your hands with your blood after killing this trash. Just stand there and do nothing. When I'm done, you'll still be my uncle. . . Otherwise, you and I will be enemies! "
After saying that. . .
Prince Cheng De was silent. Under the nervous gaze of the Crown Prince, he took a big step forward and walked into the palace.
