Sun and Moon Tower

"Brother, you are wrong."

Guanglong said meaningfully: "Although I have the support of Prince Montgomery's Mansion, I am still a long way from success. Besides, my third brother also has a strong background, so it will not be easy for me to win. Of course, if I have your help, I will have at least 80% confidence!"

In his eyes, Wenxing's value is far higher than that of the royal Duncan family.

If he could convince Wenxing to support him, his original 60% confidence could be directly increased to 80%.

The question now is, can Wenxing suppress his ambitions and place his bets on him?

"Brother, you know that I am a person of indifferent temperament and do not like fame and fortune. I will not participate in such power struggles. I hope you can understand." Wenxing considered it for a while and finally refused.

He knew that his chances of winning were slim, but he still felt unwilling to give up.

He is the eldest son and the rightful crown prince. Apart from his weak physical condition, he has almost no shortcomings.

He has been planning every step carefully and has finally made it to this day, so he naturally cannot give up easily.

Even if his life is short and he only has a few days to live, even if he can only be emperor for one day, he will fight hard for it!

"Brother, don't blame me for being harsh. As a man, you should know yourself."

Guanglong said with a fake smile: "If you really don't want to fight for power, then you can be a leisurely prince and live a rich and prosperous life. No one will make things difficult for you. However, once you get involved in this mess, it will not be easy to get out of it. I hope you can think it over carefully."

He could see that Wenxing was still ambitious, but because of his weak power, the possibility of competing for the top position was very low.

This kind of person doesn't pose much of a threat, but if he becomes a stumbling block, it will be troublesome after all.

So he needed to make his words clear in advance, and also to warn others.

"You are right, brother. I understand now."

Wenxing nodded slightly with a smile on his face.

But deep in his eyes, there is still a sharp edge that is not easy to detect.

"Having said this, I won't say any more. If you have time, you can come to my house as a guest. It's been a long time since we brothers have had a drink together." Guanglong said with a smile.

"Definitely next time." Wenxing nodded and did not refuse.

"Brother, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now." Guanglong clasped his fists, turned around and left.

Wenxing squinted his eyes and stood there for a long time, his face looking a little gloomy.

Among the four royal families, the Montgomery Palace has openly supported Guanglong; while the most powerful Spanner family has placed its hopes on Juntang.

As for the Bryant family, they are very close to the Prince Montgomery's Mansion and are most likely on the side of Guanglong.

Now the only family that has not taken sides is the Duncan family, and this is also his last hope.

Without the support of the royal family, those idle aristocratic families would never be able to ascend the throne.

So now, he must win over the Duncan family to his camp at all costs.

After the three princes left, another distinguished guest arrived at the Duncan family mansion.

It was Princess Margaret, beautiful and charming.

As always, Margaret was wearing a veil, so her appearance could not be seen clearly, but her temperament was still so noble that it was hard to ignore.

Moreover, unlike the three princes who each had their own thoughts, Margaret's appearance was simply to mourn Zhengjun Duncan.

This made the Duke feel a little better.

It seems that not all people in the imperial family are heartless, at least Princess Margaret is an exception.

The emperor had sighed in front of him more than once, wishing that Princess Margaret was a man, at least he wouldn't have to worry about the position of crown prince.

With Princess Margaret's ability, she is more than capable of taking on the responsibility.

It’s a pity that the throne has always been passed down from father to son, not from father to daughter.

It is not easy for officials to make decisions that go against their ancestors.

After paying her respects, Margaret left without staying long enough to cause controversy.

But before leaving, she looked at Dustin specifically, as if she had something to say.

Not long after that, Dustin received a message on his phone. It was from Margaret. It only had a short sentence: "I have something important to tell you. See you at Sun Moon Tower tonight."

Dustin stayed in the mourning hall for a whole day, and only found an excuse to leave when night fell.

After leaving the Duncan family mansion, Dustin took a taxi to the Sun and Moon Tower.

About forty minutes later, Dustin arrived at the place where he met Margaret.

The Sun and Moon Tower is not very famous in Stonia. It is usually deserted and few people come in and out.

However, the revenue of Sun Moon Tower is very impressive, because it is an intelligence trading point created by Margaret.

Anyone who needs it can come here to buy and sell information.

There are all kinds of types, and they are very complete. The only drawback is that they are too expensive.

Of course, for those big guys who need intelligence, it is definitely worth the money.

The intelligence provided by Margaret to the Sun and Moon Tower can often save their lives at critical moments. - 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. ...
