"In fact, we don't need to worry about who is more suitable to be the emperor, but we should think about who has the most hope to be the emperor?"

At this time, the second son Guofei Duncan suddenly said.

He is a businessman who pursues maximum profit, so he doesn't care who will be the emperor.

He only cares about who is more likely to be the emperor.

Choosing that person and then supporting him is the wisest choice.

"Who has the most hope depends on who has the most supporters." Kangjian Duncan thought thoughtfully.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask just now, which prince does the Montgomery Palace support?" Zhengjun Duncan slapped his head.

After discussing for a long time, it is still unknown who the Montgomery Palace prefers.

"I guess it should be the third prince."

Guofei Duncan narrowed his eyes and analyzed: "The third prince Li Juntang has a good personal relationship with Mark Montgomery. He has amazing potential and is very popular with the emperor. The Montgomery Palace may bet on the third prince."

"Mark Montgomery cannot fully represent the Montgomery Palace. Personal relationships are not worth mentioning compared to family interests." Zhengjun Duncan shook his head.

"Dad, you are knowledgeable. What do you think?" Kangjian Duncan asked.

"If I guess correctly, the person that the Montgomery Palace is betting on should be the second prince Li Guanglong." Duke Duncan looked serious.

"The second prince? Any explanation?" Kangjian Duncan was a little confused.

"The power of Prince Montgomery's Mansion is extremely huge. Looking at the whole Stonia, under the imperial power, only the Spanner family can be compared; and Prince Eugene Montgomery is already the most powerful official, with no room for advancement. If Lord Eugene Montgomery wants to go further, then his desire should be to pursue the supreme power!" Duke Duncan's expression was solemn.

As soon as this was said, the faces of the three brothers changed.

"You mean... Lord Eugene Montgomery wants to usurp the throne?" Kangjian Duncan was surprised.

"No way? I heard that Prince Montgomery is kind and generous, makes friends with people, and never interferes in court affairs. How could he have such a big ambition?" Zhengjun Duncan was a little unbelievable.

"Don't judge a person by his appearance. Some people who are more kind on the surface are more ruthless. Lord Eugene Montgomery has been dormant for half his life, maybe waiting for this opportunity today." Guofei Duncan frowned.

He has been doing business for many years and has seen all kinds of people.

On the surface, they are brothers, giving gifts and gifts, but once they seize the opportunity, they are truly open-hearted.

"Although it is a little unbelievable, this possibility is not impossible."

Duke Duncan continued: "Of course, for Eugene Montgomery, the risk of usurping the throne is too great. What he really wants to do is to use the emperor to control the princes!"

"Use the emperor to control the princes?"

The three brothers looked at each other with frowns.

This reminded them of the mysterious Dragon Protection Pavilion.

Although it is not obvious, all the civil and military officials in the court are terrified.

It seems that the Montgomery Palace is going to follow the old path of the Dragon Protection Pavilion.

"The eldest prince is weak and sickly, and it is difficult for him to take on important tasks. The Montgomery Palace will not choose to invest in him.

The third prince is both civil and military, and is extremely shrewd. After he is supported to the throne, it will be difficult to control him, and he may even be suspected because of his superiority.

Only the second prince, who is brave but not wise, is the most suitable candidate for support by the Montgomery Palace.

He has potential, is easy to control, and is suitable to be a puppet, which is also in line with Eugene Montgomery's expectations.

So I think that the Montgomery Palace should support the second prince to take the throne."

Duke Duncan expressed his analysis.

He always felt that Eugene Montgomery was hidden, but he was too well disguised before, and there was no clue at all.

Now that the Dragon Protection Pavilion has been destroyed and the imperial power is weak, it is the time to take the throne.

Eugene Montgomery finally showed his fangs.

"According to this analysis, supporting the second prince to take the throne can indeed maximize the interests of the Montgomery Palace." Guofei Duncan nodded in agreement.

"Dad, the Montgomery Palace chooses the second prince, so how should we choose?" Kangjian Duncan asked the question.

"I am also worried."

Duke Duncan shook his head and said helplessly: "The four royal families and the eight wealthy families, the choice of each force is very important, but the decisive factor is the Montgomery Palace and the Spanner Family. Before making a decision, I need to understand what the Spanner Family means."

At this point, Duke Duncan suddenly looked at his eldest son Kangjian Duncan: "Kangjian, you have a good relationship with the fourth son of the Spanner Family, you should go over and test the waters."

"Understood, I'll do it right away."

Kangjian Duncan nodded and turned away quickly.

The situation is urgent now, and there is not much time left for them to make a decision, so they must hurry up to investigate.

"Guofei, you should also ask the Bryant family." Duke Duncan turned around and ordered.

Although the Bryant family is not as good as the Spanner Family and the Montgomery Palace, it is also one of the four royal families, similar to the Duncan family.

"Yes!"

Guofei Duncan responded and left immediately.

"Dad, what about me? What do you need me to do?" Zhengjun Duncan was a little impatient.

He was an impatient man, and he naturally couldn't stand idly by when such a big thing happened.

"Zhengjun, your mission is the most important, because I need you to go to West Lucozia." Duke Duncan's expression became very serious.

"What are we going to West Lucozia for?" Zhengjun Duncan was stunned and didn't react.

"In fact, what really affects the ownership of the imperial power is not the Montgomery Palace, nor the Spanner Family, but the West Lucozia Palace thousands of miles away!"

Duke Duncan said shockingly: "The West Lucozia Black Dragon Army is the best in the world. Looking at the entire Dragonmarsh, no force can match it. Whether it is the Eight Wealthy or the Four Royal Families, they are far inferior to the West Lucozia Palace.

To put it bluntly, if the King of West Lucozia wants to ****, no one can stop him!

Therefore, compared with the various forces in Stonia, the opinions of the West Lucozia Palace are particularly important.

Once the West Lucozia Palace chooses to stand on the side, whoever they support will be the future new emperor!"

"So that's it."

Zhengjun Duncan nodded suddenly: "Dad, I know what to do. I'll go to West Lucozia right away!"

After paying his respects, Zhengjun Duncan also hurried away.

"In the next period of time, Stonia will probably be in a bloody storm."

Looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the door, Duke Duncan couldn't help but sigh, with an indelible sadness between his brows.

If we can't protect ourselves in the situation, we can only go with the flow. - Ton

Interception

Li Guanglong’s fingers gently stroked the ornate box, the chill of its silken surface seeping into his fingertips, yet it could not mask the damp sweat pooling in his palm. He glanced at Murong Xue, who was locked in a drinking contest with Batu. Murong was tilting back his head, draining a large bowl of amber-colored liquor. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed, and in the corner of his eye he cast a fleeting glance toward the copper kettle in the corner of the igloo. That was where they had hidden the prepared knockout drug --- brewed from a poisonous herb of the icefields that gave off a sweet aroma. Once mixed into strong liquor, it was nearly impossible to detect. “Leader Batu truly has a mighty capacity for drink!” Murong Xue slammed his empty bowl down on the table, sending ice shards scattering. “This ‘ice-burn’ liquor cuts like a blade. Ordinary men collapse after three bowls, yet you remain unshaken. Truly worthy of being called the eagle of the snowfields!” Batu r...

Frozen Wasteland

The ice sculptures shimmered with a cold light in the biting wind, the soldiers’ twisted faces sealed inside the crystalized frost, as if still crying out from the agony of being frozen alive. Li Guanglong stared at those figures, his Adam’s apple rolling a few times as he forced down the tremor in his chest. He raised a hand to rub his still-stiff arm. The spot that had been swept by the white mist earlier was still faintly bruised with purplish-blue, the chill seeming to seep deep into his very bones. “Your Highness, that spirit deer carries a poisonous cold beyond imagination.” Wan Zhong leaned on his blade as he walked over, the wound on his lone arm having split open again from the cold. Blood seeped through the bandages, dripping scarlet dots onto the snow. He gazed toward where the deer had vanished, his eyes full of dread. “We’d best hold our camp steady for now, and not recklessly provoke the creatures of this island again.” Li Guanglong nodded silently. His earlier ...

Seeking Medicine for a Father

When Li Weimin’s decree was issued, reactions across the factions varied. At that moment, Li Wenxing was in his study, weighing the pros and cons of the recent trip to Southern Frontier. Although he hadn’t stood out much, compared to Li Guanglong and Li Juntang, he was still the more capable one. But this minor advantage clearly wasn’t enough to change the overall outcome. Just then, Qian Jin rushed in and reported, “Your Highness! A message from the palace --- His Majesty’s condition has worsened, and he has only a short time left. He has issued a special decree: any royal family member who can journey to Penglai Island and retrieve the elixir will become the future crown prince!” “Future crown prince?” Hearing this, Li Wenxing’s spirits lifted immediately. But soon after, he frowned. He had, of course, heard of Penglai Island --- but only in legends. Whether it truly existed in the East Sea, and whether it held any elixir that could extend life, remained unknown. ...
