Chapter 964 Breaking, Emperor Hongcheng (Part 1)
With the two major assistances of Longfeng and Longhuo, Yun Sheng also formally assumed the role of "Regent" as the new leader of Beimingwei.
Several people began to plan how to attack Emperor Hongcheng.
The people in Emperor Hongcheng still don't know that a surprise attack is about to launch.
Inside the Yuan mansion, Yuan Shanshan, the daughter of Yuan's parents, walked in from the outside without being angry.
"It's so annoying, what does the city lord mean? He handed over the defense of the city to an outsider, and also drove out all our family members. This is clearly crowding out us and my brother."
She wanted to go out of the city to do business today, but was told by the city guard that she could not leave the city without the second prince's warrant.
The conflict between the Xuanyuan family has intensified over the years.
After Yuan Bupo came out of retreat, his strength increased greatly, and he comprehended the seventh chapter of Emperor Hong.
Although the city lord Xuan Sitian praised him superficially, in fact, his grudge against the Yuan family became deeper and deeper.
After the death of the young city lord Xuan Wuji, the elders in the city had always hoped that Liyuan Bupo could be changed into the young city lord so that he could inherit the orthodoxy of Emperor Hongcheng in the future.
The city lord Xuan Sitian also agreed to the request of the elders at first, but Xuan Sitian was still unwilling to lose the power of the city lord. He wanted to try his best to match Xuan Meimei and Yuan Bupo's marriage, and their children would inherit the position of the city lord in the future.
Yuan Bupo has already had someone he likes, so naturally he would not agree, he has refused several times, both openly and secretly.
But Xuan Meimei still lingered, impatience, Yuan Bupo swore in front of all the elders that he would not marry Xuan Meimei even if there were no more women in the entire Emperor Hongcheng.
After Xuan Meimei was humiliated, love gave birth to hatred.
At that time, Li Shao, the second prince of Tang Yuan, came to visit Emperor Hongcheng in the name of cooperation.
The Lord of Emperor Hong hosted a banquet in honor of Li Shao. Seeing that Xuan Meimei's cured appearance was quite touching, Li Shao had an idea.
The past few years have also been bad luck for Li Shao. His fortune was originally at its peak, but because of Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming's interference, his power plummeted.
Especially after the artifact tour, Li Shao was unanimously condemned by several major forces in other countries.
As for the mainland magic elite camp, because of Li Shao's despicable behavior, Li Shao was expelled from the camp, and Tang Yuan's annual quota for entering the mainland magic elite camp was also cancelled.
Not to mention that Li Shao didn't find the artifact, he also disgraced Tang Yuan's royal family.
Prince Li Cheng took the opportunity to participate in Li Shao's book in the court, revealing all the things that he had allowed his subordinates to do evil in various places and privately set up a personal army of magicians over the years.
Only then did Emperor Tang Yuan know that Li Shao had done so many evil things secretly.
In a fit of rage, he deprived Li Shao of his official position and forced him to take his income for many years into the national treasury.
Thanks to Li Shao's mother and concubine who went on a hunger strike and hanged herself, Li Shao's position as prince was preserved.
Li Shao fell from the famous Wuji Wubi to the titular second prince, but in less than a year, he felt unbalanced, angry and hated, and vowed to rise again.
At the banquet, Li Shao met Xuan Meimei and inquired about Xuan Meimei's rejection. He was also very insidious, and he quickly thought of another way out, which was to marry Di Hongcheng.
The last time Xuan Meimei went to Xianju Country to seek the water of life, she flirted with Li Shao, and they were interested in each other.
It happened that Xuan Meimei was very depressed because of the unbreakable matter.
Li Shao took advantage of the time he was in Emperor Hongcheng, giving gifts and going out together, the two of them fought fiercely, and soon there was a relationship between a man and a woman.
It was too late when City Lord Emperor Hong found out, Li Shao's flesh and blood were already in Xuan Meimei's belly.
City Lord Emperor Hong had no choice but to agree to Li Shao's marriage proposal and betroth Xuan Meimei to her.
The two had just made a marriage contract a while ago.
These two people, one stingy and narrow-minded, the other jealous, they are a match made in heaven when they get together.
However, because of this, Li Shao and Di Hongcheng formed an alliance.
The Lord of Emperor Hong City is also old and cunning. When he left Emperor Hong City for Dazhou, he saved a hand.
He was worried that the defense in the city would be empty and that other forces would take advantage of it, so he specially invited his son-in-law, the second prince Li Shao, and a group of magicians to help defend the city.
As soon as Li Shao entered the city, relying on himself as the second prince of Tang Yuan and Xuan Meimei's future husband-in-law, he thought that Emperor Hongcheng must be controlled by him in the future.
Not only did he wantonly crowd out the people from the Yuan family, but he also instituted a curfew and a ban on going out of the city, in the name of strengthening the defense and preventing foreign enemies from invading.
"Sister, bear with it if you can. I'm just a little worried about Eldest Sister. This time, the city lord might be detrimental to Yunfu," Yuan Bupo said.
City Lord Dihong is secretive, but the Yuan family still knows more or less about City Lord Emperor Hong's ambitions.
In the turmoil of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yuan Shahua and her husband Yun Canglang would run into the city lord sooner or later.
The strength of the city lord is no small matter.
Even Yunbahe may not be an opponent when he meets City Lord Dihong.
Since Yuan Bupo was expelled by the divine wind in the battle of Xianju, he changed his previous escapism and devoted himself to cultivating in Emperor Hongcheng.
He originally wanted to confess his love to Yun Sheng when he left the customs.
How could I know, but I got the news that Yun Sheng had married the Prince Regent of Da Zhou.
After hearing the news, Yuan Bupo was disheartened.
But when Yuan Bupo was feeling depressed, he got a message from his sister Yuan Shahua.
The Prince Regent of Da Zhou disappeared suddenly on the night of his wedding.
The news has been blocked, so the outside world doesn't know the emotion, but the fact that Ye Beiming's whereabouts are missing is true.
Yuan Bupo has always liked Yunsheng very much, but Yunsheng already has his own heart, and Yuan Bupo is helpless.
Yuan Shahua also encouraged her younger brother, if the regent did not return for a day, her younger brother Yuan Bupo might still have a chance.
After Yuan Bupo heard the news, he wanted to find Yun Sheng as soon as possible and express his love to her.
From Yuan Bupo's point of view, Yun Sheng will be very sad when Ye Beiming disappears for no reason, but for him, it is an opportunity.
But before he set off to look for Yun Sheng, the situation in Dihong City became tense.
Li Shao's people have already started to crowd out the Yuan family's people without any scruples.
In Emperor Hong City, there are internal and external troubles now, and the city lord has repeatedly ostracized him. If this continues, the Yuan family will be threatened sooner or later.
"But we have no way to contact your sister right now," the Yuan family members were also worried.
"I have already sent Binghuoluan to report the news. I believe that my sister should know the news around the same time. When my brother-in-law arrives, we will act immediately," Yuan Bupo mused.
Yuan Bupo's temperament was originally hot-blooded, although he has calmed down a bit due to his practice these years.
But people like Li Shao would never be allowed to run wild on him.
Li Shao still has the Xuan family, and it's time to get rid of them!
