There are ten princes in the North Garden, and in the succession ranking, the Great Sun King ranks first, but this does not mean that his position is as stable as Mount Tai, the fact is the opposite.

According to the tradition of the Northern Court, the succession ranking can only be used when the previous Khan has not directly designated an heir, and the old Khan can choose anyone to inherit the throne, including the descendants of the Ten Kings, and his words are above all else.

For the current old Khan, the establishment of an heir has become a sensitive subject, and as his illness worsens, the taboo grows deeper, and anyone who dares to mention it in front of him will have to bear the risk of losing his head.

Originally, this was a good phenomenon for the Great Sun King, as long as the old Khan King never spoke, he was the next Khan King as a matter of course, but in recent years, his self-confidence has become less and less, and he has even become uneasy and fearful.

The aristocracy usually judged someone's favor in the simplest way: by the number of times he was privately summoned by the old Khan.

Favor must be face-to-face, this is an unbreakable truth, and it doesn't take much knowledge to find its accuracy among the nobles of the North Court.

The number of times the Great Sun King has been summoned has not decreased, but what frightens him is that the number of times the King of Kuari has been steadily increasing, especially in the last year or two, and there is even a tendency to overtake.

Not only did one nobleman warn the Great Sun King to pay attention to this matter, but more than one nobleman tilted his weight towards King Kwari while stepping on two boats.

This is a life-and-death competition, and the loser will either follow the old Khan King into the underworld, or he will go away and disappear into the vast barren land, and will no longer be able to participate in any affairs of the North Court.

This is also a close hand-to-hand fight, in which both sides must not give an inch, and exert all their strength on every inch of territory and every little thing until it is completely occupied, after which it can only take a breath and immediately plunge into the next battle.

The Dragon King is now their battlefield.

Gu Shenwei was already aware of this, and he wanted to find out the reason, and soon found that the Great Sun King, like the Sun King, was also hiding the truth.

Although the Great Sun King has always been the most important supporter of Jinpeng Castle, Gu Shenwei has no rejection of him, and he will not stand on the side of his impression until he finds out the true bottom line of the noble people.

The first thing the King of the Great Sun said to the Dragon King when he came to the untouchable area and retired the idlers, and the first thing he said to the Dragon King was: "I hope that Jinpeng Castle will not become an obstacle between you and me, every decision I make depends on whether it can bring benefits to the North Court, as for my personal preferences, it does not take a little weight." ”

"I also hope that I will not disappoint you when I ask to see King Kuari first, it is my principle to make it easy first and then difficult, and the difficulty of King Dari is a bit high for me. ”

"Haha. The Great Sun King let out a hearty laugh peculiar to the people of Beiting, "After this meeting, you will never find it difficult for me again." ”

The words are straightforward, but the topic is roundabout, and both sides are still testing each other in order to quickly form an impression.

What Gu Shenwei saw was a thin old man, about fifty years old, of medium stature, and under the appearance of boldness and approachability, there was a majesty that only those who had held power for many years, and this majesty had become a part of the Great Sun King, and even if he became a prisoner, it would not disappear easily.

However, Gu Shenwei noticed that the Great Sun King's speech was a little incoherent, and there were occasional coldness and pauses, as if he had suddenly lost his ability to speak, and in an instant he would return to normal, and he himself seemed to know nothing about it.

In the eyes of the Great Sun King, the Dragon King is inscrutable, with the status of the Great Sun King, as well as the history of supporting Jinpeng Castle, he suddenly appeared in the untouchable area, and personally came to meet the enemies of the past, the Dragon King should be shocked, and then he was completely impressed, but this young man, as if there was no accident, his demeanor was calm and calm, and he did not regard him as the first king of the North Court at all.

"I'm old. After discovering that his unexpected arrival did not have the desired effect, the enthusiasm of the Great Sun King weakened a lot, "Even standing and talking is a burden, is the Dragon King willing to accept my invitation to drink a glass of water and wine in my tent?"

"I can't ask for it. Gu Shenwei accepted the invitation, his tone was still flat, and there was not much meaning of "I can't ask for it".

Outside the tent was a group of guards waiting, as well as Shou Lao and his swordsman Bossan.

Gu Shenwei stopped in front of Shou Lao and said, "I will come again the day after tomorrow." ”

Shou Lao's face was cloudy, and he didn't know how to answer in front of the Great Sun King.

The Great Sun King didn't care, "Go and tell the four kings, just say that the dragon king was invited away by me, let him wait for two days." ”

"Yes. Shou Lao replied respectfully, knowing that his business was about to come to an end, and the battle for the throne was becoming more and more fierce, he had to choose between the two hostile sides, which was a secret refuge, and after being exposed, it would greatly damage his reputation, and no one would ever again believe in his impartiality, let alone the wrath of King Kuari.

The Great Sun King came to the untouchable area in person, not to surprise the Dragon King, but to give Shou Lao a fatal blow, and he didn't even dare to make the slightest hint to the prince, that would make him die faster.

Posan looked at the dragon king excitedly, his round face full of incredible admiration, because he was so nervous that the veins on his neck were exposed, and outsiders would think that he was expressing hatred.

To his regret, the Dragon King didn't speak to him again, or even look at him more.

Compared with the simple tent of the king of the sun, the residence of the king of the great sun can be called a palace, and it will not look crowded when ten rooms are divided into it, and the thick carpet is like being in the clouds, and the young and beautiful female slaves are in groups, and the corresponding utensils and food will be sent before the master thinks of it.

The liaison between the prince and the servant was a sallow-faced young man, probably in his twenties, who seemed to have been malnourished since childhood, causing him not only to be physically thin and weak, but also to seem to have some problems with his intelligence, but this humble man had a surprising magical ability: he could guess every thought of the Great Sun King in advance.

Gu Shenwei also realized the importance of this person after a while, and those female slaves stared at the yellow-faced waiter almost intently, and through his eyes and subtle movements, they immediately carried out their own affairs.

The yellow-faced waiter intervened when the conversation had been going on for a while, both abrupt and natural, and he said: "Our prince loves talent the most, and when he sees a young talent like the Dragon King, he often can't sleep for several nights, and always wants all the heroes in the world to be used by Beiting. ”

The Great Sun King smiled and nodded, calmly accepting the waiter's praise, and then something strange happened, the Great Sun King fell back on the thick pillow that had been put in place, and from then on he rarely uttered a complete sentence, "I think ......", "This matter is ......", "In my opinion", "I think ......", and the rest of the words were all supplemented by the yellow-faced waiter, and the connection between them was extremely natural, and the sudden pause was gone.

Gu Shenwei's gaze insisted on staying on the Great Sun King, and he did not ask the name and identity of the yellow-faced waiter from beginning to end.

"The Dragon King must be very puzzled, why did our prince invite you to come?"

"A little. ”

"That's the case, I want to make a little explanation for the prince first, the prince thinks about the overall situation of the North Court wholeheartedly, without a little selfishness, everyone says that our prince supports Jinpeng Castle, in fact, it is a misunderstanding, our prince only supports the North Court, as for the situation in the Western Regions, if it is beneficial to the North Court, our Lord will lend a hand. ”

"As it should be. ”

"Therefore, the Dragon King is willing to come to the North Court to negotiate, and our prince is very happy......"

Gu Shenwei now understands where he learned what the Great Sun King said in Shou Lao's shop, and the same thing was said by the yellow-faced waiter again, which was smoother and more reasonable.

Slowly, the yellow-faced waiter began to get to the point, and his attitude became a little arrogant, "The Dragon King's vision should be a little longer-term, our prince is the future King of the Khan of Beiting, the Western Regions is just a small pond, the Dragon King can toss in it as much as he wants, but he must get the consent of Beiting, that is, our prince." ”

Gu Shenwei's words became less and less, so that he remained completely silent, not even making a sound.

"Our prince heard that the dragon king is a smart man, and a smart person should do smart things. The yellow-faced waiter obviously saw the silence as submission, "The Dragon King seized the opportunity and chose to accept the protection of the North Court at this time, which is very wise, but the Dragon King pinned his hopes on King Quari, so it was a bit of a smart person to do stupid things. Does the Dragon King want an ally for three or five years, or an ally for life? In the North Court, the only person who can protect the Dragon King forever is our prince......

Gu Shenwei's only purpose in accepting the invitation was to find out what was going on in the Dragon Court, so that several princes were anxious to see him but concealed it, but they met such a chattering yellow face.

The old Khan King Danfan still has a trace of reason, and he will never appoint the Great Sun King as his heir.

Gu Shenwei stood up and walked in front of the Great Sun King.

The yellow-faced waiter was talking about it, he didn't expect the dragon king to act like this, he was stunned for a while, and shouted: "The dragon king, please stop, our prince ......"

"King of the Great Sun, if you don't wake up again, no one will ever talk to you. ”

The Great Sun King was obviously even more surprised, glanced at the yellow-faced waiter uneasily, sat up straight, and said, "I have been awake. ”

Gu Shenwei stared at the dim-stricken prince for a while, "Let someone send me out." ”

"The Dragon King can live with me, let's ...... You can ......" the Great Sun King seems to have forgotten what he should say.

"Dragon King, you are provoking our prince. The yellow-faced waiter finally reacted and jumped in front of the Great Sun King in two steps, "You have made a huge mistake, if you confess your guilt immediately, it is possible to be forgiven, otherwise, as long as our prince says a word, the entire Western Regions will be razed to the ground, not to mention a small dragon king." ”

Gu Shenwei finally moved his gaze to the yellow-faced waiter, "I'm worried about whether the Great Sun King will be able to say his words in the future. ”

After offending the second prince of the Northern Court, Gu Shenwei walked out of the tent, leaving behind the bewildered King of the Great Sun, the yellow-faced waiter with a blue face, and the stunned and excited slave girl.

With no one to send, Gu Shenwei walked into the night to find the lotus girl hiding in the shadows.
