Chapter 899: Emphasis, we wont intervene
The Central Empire was not under the supremacy of the Imperial family. The Imperial Family controls most of the power, but its power and status were even worse than that of the East. Even the Emperor sometimes has to bow his head to the aristocratic family.
There were seven great aristocratic families in the Central Empire, namely Dongyang, Beitang, Nanrong, Xiling, Hua, Tang, and Lin. The first four families were the top-tier existences among the seven great aristocratic families. They were the old families of the empire, known as the four dragon legs of the Central Empire;
"The people in the Central Empire are so polite to us this time. Besides the Eldest Prince, there is also the help of Dongyang and the Hua family. If it weren"t for them, things would be very difficult." Therefore, they were not completely helpless in the Central Empire, at least there were two great families they can rely on.
"I can understand the Hua family. What"s going on with the Dongyang family? Why would they help us?" Lin Chujiu had dealt with people from the Hua family, what about the other one?
They have nothing to do with the Dongyang family.
"The Dongyang family and the Hua family are related by marriage, and the relations.h.i.+p is very close. It is also because of the help of the Dongyang family that the Hua family become stronger and stronger."
The marriage between the Hua family and the Dongyang family has brought many benefits to the Hua family.
"So, we are not alone and helpless in the Central Empire?" The Dongyang family and the Hua family helped them this time, just waiting for them to draw them under their wings, and others would not dare to touch them easily, otherwise, they would slap the Dongyang family and the Hua family in the face long ago.
"Don"t worry about the Central Empire, we won"t stay in there for too long." Xiao Tianyao patted Lin Chujiu on the back, smiling unfathomably.
"Huh?" Lin Chujiu looked puzzled, always feeling that there was something she didn"t know, but this time Xiao Tianyao didn"t say anything, but just smiled and said nothing.
Lin Chujiu knew that Xiao Tianyao must have a plan. He didn"t say it because it must be very important, so she stopped asking.
In the following days, Xiao Tianyao continued to tell Lin Chujiu about the Central Empire, almost telling Lin Chujiu everything he knew.
"The Eldest Prince is weak in the Central Empire. Although his mother"s family has military power, it is not that strong."
"The Second Prince is the most powerful. Her Mother Concubine is favored, and the Chen family is helping him. Several aristocratic families are very optimistic about the second prince."
"The Third Prince is good at literature. His natal"s family is a scholarly family, there are no supporters behind him, and his grace is not strong. Unless there is a great decision, it is impossible to succeed to the throne."
"The Fourth Prince has no natal"s support, but his strength cannot be underestimated. He was taken care of by the Second Prince"s mother when he was young, and he is very close to the second prince."
"The Fifth Prince was born with a disability, so he also has no chance of becoming a great prince."
"The sixth prince married the princess of the Baijin Empire as his concubine and stayed in Baijin all year round. The possibility of succeeding to the throne is zero."
"The next one is the youngest prince who came to the East this time. He is close to the second prince. It can be seen that he has no ambition to sit on the throne, but who knows how it is."
Born in the Imperial Family, unless there was no inheritance right, no prince will not want to fight for it.
"The aristocratic family has less involvement with the Imperial Family on the surface, but every family secretly leans towards a certain prince, but these have nothing to do with us. We won"t intervene in the imperial power struggle of the Central Empire. We will just go there." Xiao Tianyao once again emphasized the att.i.tude of not getting involved, but… …
Lin Chujiu didn"t believe it, because Xiao Tianyao emphasized it too many times.
Lin Chujiu didn"t fry, and simply asked: "The Eldest Prince has returned to the Central Empire, right? Where"s Mo Qingfeng? I haven"t seen him for a long time."
"Sure enough, I can"t hide anything from you. Mo Qingfeng returned to the Central Empire with the Eldest Prince." Xiao Tianyao didn"t hide it intentionally, but some things were hard to say.
After all, they were not the only ones here.
"I knew you were prepared." Lin Chujiu was used to Xiao Tianyao"s temperament of taking one step and watching the other. If one day Xiao Tianyao didn"t make arrangements in advance, Lin Chujiu would suspect that there was something wrong.
"It"s not that I don"t want to tell you, it"s just…" There were some things that he doesn"t know how to say.
For example, in his life experience, he doesn"t know if Lin Chujiu can accept it, so he wants to take it easy. Wait until his relations.h.i.+p with her gets better, and then talk about it.
"I know, you don"t have to tell me everything, you just need to keep me safe and don"t just leave me in the Central Empire." She was afraid of being left behind, especially in an unfamiliar environment. She…wasn"t as strong as she thought.
"Not!" This was Xiao Tianyao"s promise to Lin Chujiu. Lin Chujiu glanced at him and smiled: "I will trust you once."
In the evening, the group missed the inn and had to camp in the wild.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu have long been used to this kind of life, and they don"t think there was anything wrong with it, but the young prince of the Central Empire can"t accept it.
He has grown up to this age but he has never slept in the wild. Seeing the dirty environment in the wild and the insects flying all over the sky, the young prince became dissatisfied, and said coldly: "I won"t sleep in the wild!"
"The Youngest Prince, please calm down. The people from the East suggested that we sleep in the wild for one night. The next town is not suitable for accommodation, so please stay overnight." Although the Imperial Envoys were respectful to the young prince, they were not panic-stricken.
"I have never slept in the wild!" The young prince emphasized, again and again, his eyes full of disgust.
"The Youngest Prince, you can sleep in the carriage." The carriage of the Imperial Envoy was more luxurious and s.p.a.cious than Xiao Tianyao"s. It was not a problem for three people to sleep, let alone one person, but… …
Although the carriage was good, it was not comfortable to use it to sleep, at least not as comfortable as a bed.
"Can"t we go to the town? It"s not dark yet, so you can go for another hour." The young prince said in a negotiating tone, and the accompanying Imperial Envoy hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes!"
Originally they planned to go to the next town, but Xiao Tianyao suggested camping here, saying that the next town was not safe. People in the Central Empire naturally believed in Xiao Tianyao, but they didn"t expect the young prince would be dissatisfied.
The people from the Central Empire went to communicate with Xiao Tianyao. Xiao Tianyao"s people had already set up the tent, so they refused to agree.
The people in the Central Empire were extremely angry, but Xiao Tianyao and his party were no match for their actions at this time, so they could only go back and report to the young prince.
The young prince was also short-tempered, upon seeing this, he said directly: "They won"t go, let"s go, and we"ll meet up later."
The members of the Imperial Envoy originally disagreed. It can be seen that Xiao Tianyao doesn"t give them a face at all. They wanted to take the opportunity to frustrate Xiao Tianyao"s spirit. So the Imperial Envoy immediately left with the young prince and the accompanying guards. There was a lot of noise.
"They leave just like that, won"t you stop them?" Lin Chujiu waited for the Imperial Envoy to go far away before going forward to ask Xiao Tianyao.
"Well, teach them a lesson!"
There must be one party in charge of the two parties. He can be polite at the beginning, but he can’t be polite all the time. He never likes to be dominated by others, so the young prince and his party can only feel wronged… …
